If there were more than 600 Ancestral Gods roaming around the Tomb of Samsara, it would be normal for them to barge into the world that Long Chen and the others were in.
In order to allow Kitten to successfully refine the Samsara fruit and fulfill his wish of returning to the Progenitor realm, everyone spread out and protected Kitten in the middle.
"Now, I'm afraid there will be an endless supply of Samsara fruits. Every time we obtain a Samsara fruit, the team will become stronger. It seems like it will be more advantageous for us in the future."
"That's right."
This was great news.
The only thing that was stuck in his mind was the confusion regarding the Sky Devouring Clan. There was no such thing as a free lunch. Although he had benefited now, if he still could not understand the confusion, he would suffer sooner or later.
Kitten swallowed the Samsara fruit.
"The fragrance of the Samsara fruit is still too strong."
Clearly, many of the surrounding worlds could smell the fragrance here. Moreover, there were people chasing after it.
"Over here."
Just as Long Chen thought of this, he heard the shouts of the Ancestral Gods. Instantly, more than 20 Ancestral Gods rushed into their world. These were the Ancestral Gods who had competed for Kitten's Samsara fruit.
Some of them had given up, but these 20 persisted and chased after him.
However, when they entered, the kitten transformed into the enormous Reincarnation Divine Beast and directly swallowed the Reincarnation Sacred Fruit. With a 'gulp', it rolled into its stomach.
Of course, it still needed time to digest it. But if that was the case, unless others cut his stomach open, they would not be able to obtain the Samsara fruit.
"Kill them all and take the Samsara Fruit." Someone from the other side was trying to instigate them.
With someone taking the lead, the more than 20 Ancestral Gods swarmed over.
"Everyone, please stop."
Long Chen was not afraid in the face of their attacks. He stood at the very front and shouted. The world rumbled and the fanatical Ancestral Gods stopped in their tracks.
"Everyone, please listen to me."
Long Chen had a sincere expression on his face. When he saw that the Elder Gods weren't in a hurry to attack, he hurriedly said, "Now that the Samsara Fruit has been swallowed, there's no chance of it being snatched away. If you continue to fight us to the death, not only will it be extremely dangerous, it will also be a waste of your time. To be honest, who knows how many Samsara Fruits have been born while you were chasing us? Perhaps the other Elder Gods have easily obtained many Samsara Fruits during this period of time, but you are still chasing me. How many have you missed?"
"Now is the right time. I think everyone should disperse quickly. If a group of people search for the fruit, it will be difficult to obtain it. However, if you are alone, if you find it first, it will be yours. There is no need to compete with others. There are so many Sacred Fruits, it depends on who is lucky, not who is fighting to the death. Apart from consuming your own strength, it is meaningless."
Long Chen's words successfully changed the minds of some of the Ancestor Gods.
After all, quite a few Ancestor Gods had left during the pursuit. Now, there were only slightly more than twenty of them left. Nearly half of them had left, and those people would definitely continue searching.
Long Chen had no choice but to do this. If he were to fight with these twenty-odd Ancestor Gods, his chances of victory were very low. Furthermore, Kitten was at a critical moment, and it would greatly affect him.
The losses outweighed the gains.
"You said that many more fruits will appear?" An Ancestor God asked Long Chen suspiciously. In fact, they believed that there would only be one or two.
Long Chen clicked his tongue and said, "You don't even know this? If not, why are there only twenty-odd of you chasing me? The others must have gone to fight for other fruits. In addition, this Samsara Tree was originally withered, but now it has suddenly erupted with vitality that has spread throughout the entire Samsara Tomb. A complete Samsara Tree will definitely have Samsara Fruits. Perhaps a few hundred will appear while you are chasing me. Unfortunately, you will all miss them."
Their most obvious characteristic was that they weren't united. They were all on guard against each other. They were like a plate of loose sand. Long Chen didn't even need to fight. He easily disintegrated them with just a few words.
Upon hearing Long Chen's words, and seeing that the Samsara Beast had already swallowed the Samsara Fruit, they also knew how powerful Long Chen and Lingxi were. If they were to fight, someone would definitely be severely injured. It might even be them …
There were over six hundred Ancestor Gods in total. Why would it be them who wanted to restrain Long Chen?
Instantly, a few Ancestor Gods turned and left without another word.
Seeing some people leave, even more people left. Very soon, there were less than ten left. They were no longer a threat to Long Chen. The remaining few were the ones who had been the loudest. They were in an extremely awkward situation. They didn't fully trust Long Chen, but their lineup wasn't strong enough.
"What's the matter? Do the few of you want to fight to the death?" Long Chen asked with a calm smile.
"Hmph."
The Ancestor Gods snorted coldly. One of them said, "We'll spare you for now. Don't let us see you appear again."
After saying those words, he actually ran away with his tail between his legs.
Everyone began to roar with laughter.
They all heaved sighs of relief. They had thought that they would have to risk their lives and fight.
Long Chen had been confident in his ability to disintegrate them, so this wasn't out of his expectations. Kitten was at a critical juncture. Long Chen turned and was just about to joke around when he suddenly sensed danger approaching.
Someone was lurking behind them.
Previously, because of the twenty Ancestor Gods, everyone had been looking forward and had neglected to look behind them. As soon as the Ancestor Gods left, Long Chen sensed danger.
He suddenly turned around and saw a familiar stone pillar. It pierced through the world behind him like a club, then smashed down. The stone pillar contained an enormous amount of power, as though it was about to crush this world.
"Chaos Ape Ancestor."
The Ancestor Gods began to appear. Long Chen had no idea where he had gone, but he didn't expect that he would appear at a time like this. He was hiding behind them, and his timing was perfect.
This meant that the Chaos Ape Ancestor wasn't as stupid as they had imagined.
"World-Shaking Blow."
This attack was like a nightmare.
The Chaos Ape Ancestor's target was none other than Kitten, who was in the middle of refining the Samsara Fruit. He was the only one who was completely defenseless.
Because the Tomb of Samsara was formed from multiple worlds, Long Chen and the others had no idea that the enemy was attacking from the world behind them. Only when the stone pillar pierced through the world and the danger descended did they realize … but it was already too late.
In that critical moment …
The only person behind Kitten was Elder God Ling Su.
Because the twenty-plus Elder Gods had left, everyone had just let down their guard.
Elder God Ling Su came to her senses. She summoned her world essence, and as soon as she placed the jade pendant in front of Kitten, the stone pillar slammed into the jade pendant.
Boom!
The jade pendant nearly shattered. Elder God Ling Su's face was ashen as she was sent flying into Kitten's body.
However, because she had blocked the attack, the stone pillar hadn't struck Kitten head-on, ensuring Kitten's safety. Otherwise, Kitten might have been split in half at the waist.
Elder God Ling Su landed in Long Chen's arms. She had been injured this time. Long Chen's Revival Melody had transformed into flames that were burning her body. It would take a period of time for her to recover. Fortunately, she had reacted in time, and so her injuries weren't too serious.
"Big brother, let's take care of her."
Mo Xiaolang and Soyeon accepted Elder God Ling Su. On the other side, Lingxi and Li Xuanji had already blocked off Ape Patriarch's path of retreat. Long Chen flew over at high speed. He went to Li Xuanji's side, and Li Xuanji merged into his body. This was the perfect Long Chen.
"Since you've come, don't even think about leaving."
Mo Xiaolang was there to take care of things, so there wouldn't be any problems. Long Chen and Lingxi surrounded the irascible Ape Patriarch. Elder God Ling Su had been injured, and the Ape Patriarch had destroyed an entire world. As far as Long Chen was concerned, there was no way he could let him leave.
"ROAR!
ROAR! "Seeing that he was surrounded, the Ape Patriarch was enraged. He pounded his chest in a frenzy, causing explosive sounds to ring out. He then grabbed onto the stone pillar with both hands, his eyes bloodshot as he glared at Long Chen. It seemed like he wasn't planning on leaving either.
The battle was about to begin at any moment.
However, it was two against one.
Long Chen and Lingxi exchanged glances. The Love Thread of Three Lifetimes was able to connect their hearts and even their strength could be interlinked. Long Chen made the first move.
"Wrath of the Dragon Qilin."
It was that law again. The Ape Patriarch was the angriest, but there was nothing he could do. He could only allow the attack to destroy his body. There was nothing he could do to stop the destruction within his body.
BOOM!
The Ape Patriarch waved the huge stone pillar and smashed it towards Long Chen again. His strength was immense, but he neglected Lingxi. Just as he attacked Long Chen, Lingxi did not say a word. The white lotus in her hand turned into a long sword. Lingxi danced, immortal qi swirling around her, and sword qi rampaged.
"Infinite Immortal Swords Formation."
The complete origin power of the world contained the power of billions of laws. With the Infinite Immortal Dao as the leader, it locked the Ape Patriarch who was attacking Long Chen within the sword formation.
The white formation was right under the feet of the Ape Patriarch.
Whoosh.
In an instant, countless Boundless Sword Qi erupted from the sword matrix, shooting from the bottom to the top, piercing through the body of the Ape Ancestor of Chaos several times. The Boundless Sword Qi, especially the arm, was directly riddled with holes.
Under such circumstances, even a complete Elder God of the Ninth Era would not be able to withstand such an attack. His attacks could no longer hit Long Chen, especially with the Wrath of the Dragonscale and the Infinite Immortal Swords Formation working together.
"Roar!
Roar! "The Ape Patriarch roared. But at this time, the seven Ancestral Dragons were destroyed from the inside. The Wrath of the Dragonscale also pierced through the Infinite Immortal Swords Formation several times.
Rumble.
The Ape Patriarch's body exploded in front of Long Chen and Lingxi.
It turned into a mist of blood.
But Long Chen knew that the real Ape Patriarch was in the stone pillar. As long as the world's source was there, his body would appear sooner or later. The stone pillar was preparing to escape.
Whoosh.
