Boundless Mystical Fire.
The raging flames engulfed the endless world.
With Long Chen and the others' cultivation level, although they would not be burned by the Mystical Fire, it would still affect them to a certain extent. In terms of movement and perception …
Because of the Boundless Mystical Fire, one could only find traces of the Ancestral Gods when they were very close to them.
Although it was difficult to find one's way in this doomsday world, Long Chen could rely on the World Source and Massacre to guide him towards the place he wanted to go.
Passing through the layers of flames, Long Chen felt that something was amiss. He stopped and asked Lingxi, "Do you think that the World Source will change under the burning of such flames?"
Ling Xi was now a Creation Ancestor God, and the most fundamental thing about her was that she was the origin of two worlds. She didn't seem to pay much attention to it, but after hearing Long Chen's words, she carefully examined it and said, "It seems like it really is because of these flames that the origins of my two worlds have been affected. They are actually rotting and even breaking down."
Long Chen also noticed this. He had just obtained the World Essence of Massacre, but now, he discovered that under the burning of the Doomsday God Fire, the entire World Essence of Massacre was beginning to decay, and its condition was constantly deteriorating. Although the speed was very slow, at least it was a process.
Although this kind of burning would not completely destroy the World Source, it would weaken it. If two Ancestral Gods were to fight, it would cause the World Source to be destroyed even more easily.
With the endless Doomsday Mystical Fire here, it was obvious that every Ancestral God's World Source would be exposed to the Doomsday Mystical Fire, unless they could escape from here.
This was because every Elder God's foundation was the prime essences of the world itself. Even if the flames landed on an Elder God's body, the flames would still land on the prime essences of the world.
"What do we do?"
Lingxi asked.
"There is no way, unless we leave this place."
Long Chen thought for a while. After all, this weakening was still within the acceptable range, so he said, "We'll hold on for now. There's really no way to leave this place. At least we know that one of the reasons the Sky Swallowing Clan created this Apocalypse was to destroy the Ancestral Gods' World Source as soon as possible."
Doomsday Godfire was everywhere. Even if Long Chen hid 'Slaughter' in his body, he couldn't hide from this kind of burning.
They continued forward. This time, because of the World's Origin, Long Chen had no choice but to increase his speed.
"I wonder how the other Elder Gods are faring …"
Up until now, there had been no news of any world being destroyed. Clearly, nothing had happened to the Ancestral Gods yet.
The divine flames ahead were tumbling and constantly changing colors. After advancing for about 15 minutes, they suddenly sensed a dangerous aura ahead. Long Chen immediately grabbed Lingxi and was about to hide when an Ancestral God of Creation appeared before them.
This Ancestral God was bathed in the Godfire, his expression sluggish. When he saw Long Chen and the others, he stopped moving. Then, a cold killing intent began to brew in his eyes.
"This is a Seventh Era Ancestral God …"
Although Long Chen didn't know him, he knew that he definitely couldn't offend him. Of course, he quickly left with Lingxi. But at this time, he noticed a detail.
The eyes of the seventh era's Ancestral God were originally gray, but now a red color had appeared around his eyes. It covered his eyes and spread to the center of his pupils. It was very slow, but it was likely that his entire eye would be occupied by this red color at some point in time.
"World Source."
Long Chen also noticed that his World Essence was the paper umbrella in his hand. On the handle of the umbrella was a gray symbol, which was none other than the curse symbol. However, at this time, the edges of the curse symbol were covered with a redness that was similar to the color of his eyes....
"Let's go."
Because of this red color, the originally sluggish puppet began to show some violent killing intent.
Long Chen hurriedly pulled Lingxi away.
The other party chased after them. But because Long Chen escaped quickly, coupled with the special environment of the apocalypse, Long Chen successfully shook him off.
"I saw it too. His curse is changing from gray to red. Once it's done, they will turn from puppets to Wind Demons," Lingxi said nervously.
"That's right, especially when their World Source is getting weaker and weaker."
The Sky Swallowing Clan's intentions gradually became clear to Long Chen.
"If we don't stop it, once the World Source becomes weaker and all the Ancestral Gods are affected by the curse, the Myriad Worlds will really be finished …"
"What can we do?"
"I don't know, just do what I can."
Long Chen sped up. The urgency in his heart was unimaginable.
Even so many Fourth Era Ancestral Gods were toyed with by the Sky Swallowing Clan. Now that he had the strength of an Eighth Era Ancestral God, what could he do?
The pressure of the environment, the pressure in his heart, the threat of death, the rage and hatred of his race.
Long Chen gripped Massacre tightly. The world inside the apocalypse was too huge. He fused with the sword and broke through the layers of fire. It was as if the Devouring Dragon Servant was right in front of him.
Boom.
Because of this, Long Chen suddenly crashed into the area where the two Ancestral Gods were fighting.
The two Ancestral Gods were in the middle of a fierce battle.
One of them was someone Long Chen knew. It was Sacred Ancestor Kui Ye, who had caused trouble for Long Chen previously. The other was a handsome male Ancestral God dressed in a silk robe. His skin was like jade and his robe was whiter than snow. He should be Jade Cauldron Ancestral God.
However, no matter how graceful they were, they were also in an extremely tragic state at this time. From their eyes, a quarter of their area had already been covered by the color of blood, and their bodies were gradually showing an endless fiendish aura.
They only cared about killing and didn't talk at all.
Jade Cauldron Ancestral God came from the Order-class Jade Cauldron Realm. It was a world that looked like an ancient cauldron, and the World Source in his hand was a white jade cauldron. It looked as if it had been carved out of the world's most beautiful gemstone, like an exquisite work of art. But at this time, fine cracks had appeared on it.
Of course, Sacred Ancestor Kui Ye's black cloth had also been torn.
These two were Eighth Era Ancestral Gods. They had probably been fighting for a very long time, and the victor was gradually being determined. Jade Cauldron Ancestral God was suppressing his opponent, and was attacking wildly.
From the looks of it, it wouldn't be long before Sacred Ancestor Kui Ye was completely destroyed.
At first, Long Chen was anxious and didn't want to interfere. But the problem was that once Sacred Ancestor Kui Ye died, trillions of lives would be lost. Not even reviving the dead would be possible. Since Long Chen was passing by, even if he didn't like Sacred Ancestor Kui Ye, he couldn't just stand by and watch.
So when he saw the situation, he immediately rushed in between the two.
"Dragonqilin's Wrath."
This Law was the fastest, and it attacked directly into Ancestral God Kui Ye's body. Startled by the sudden appearance of this opponent, Ancestral God Jade Cauldron temporarily retreated. Of course, he didn't flee.
"Silence Mantra."
At this time, Lingxi's attack was aimed behind him. Long Chen turned his head and realized that Sacred Ancestor Kui Ye, whom he had just saved, didn't know what was good for him and was preparing to attack him. Thankfully, Lingxi had noticed.
Bang.
Sacred Ancestor Kui Ye detonated the Silence Mantra. Perhaps it was because he saw that there were now three opponents, but he chose to leave. In the blink of an eye, he vanished into the surrounding Godfire.
"If his curse is completely red, he definitely won't flee now." Long Chen knew this very well.
After successfully separating the two, Long Chen and Lingxi prepared to continue forward. However, Ancestral God Jade Cauldron had already locked onto them. He was different from the seventh era's Ancestral God. That Ancestral God had been a bit muddle-headed, and so he hadn't been able to catch up to Long Chen. However, Ancestral God Jade Cauldron's eyes were growing redder and redder, and he pursued relentlessly. Clearly, he viewed Long Chen as a formidable foe.
Under this kind of pursuit, it wouldn't be good for Long Chen to cause too much of a commotion. He and Ling Xi exchanged glances and decided to force this guy away.
"Boundless Immortal Sword Formation!"
Lingxi's white lotus transformed into a white longsword. She was the first to attack. Waves of sword qi shot out from the Doomsday Godfire, forming a towering sword formation that surrounded Ancestral God Jade Cauldron. Clang! Clang!
Clang! Clang!
Ancestral God Jade Cauldron hid within the jade cauldron, allowing the sword qi to attack him. He was the eighth era's Ancestral God after all. Even though he was injured, Lingxi was unable to break through his defenses.
But at this moment, Long Chen didn't use any sword force. Instead, he used his World Essence, Massacre, to cleave down on the surface of the jade cauldron. This was the feeling of merging with the World Essence's bloodline. Under the intense collision, Long Chen sent Jade Cauldron flying.
"Let's go."
After sending Ancestral God Jade Cauldron flying, Long Chen left with Lingxi. This time, Ancestral God Jade Cauldron was unable to chase after them.
In truth, if Long Chen had used the Blood Wheel Sword, he would have been able to break apart Jade Cauldron and reduce Ancestral God Jade Cauldron to dust.
Of course, he wouldn't do that.
After separating the two Ancestral Gods, Long Chen heaved a sigh of relief. He had saved two worlds. Just as he heaved a sigh of relief, within the Death World, Li Xuanji sent him a message.
"A Primeval World has been destroyed. The World Essence must have been destroyed."
"I understand."
Long Chen closed his eyes and clenched his fists. His nails pierced deep into his flesh.
"This is the most powerless I've ever felt in my entire life …"
It was as though he couldn't do anything in this huge apocalypse. Ancestral Gods were dying one by one under the Sky Devouring Race's plan. This Primeval World was the first, but it definitely wouldn't be the last.
Right now, it was just the beginning.
He alone couldn't save so many.
"Chen, let's go." Lingxi pulled him back.
"It seems like … I can't do anything." This was the first time in history that he felt like he was about to collapse in front of a difficult situation.
"At least we have to kill the Devouring Dragon Attendants, right?" Lingxi looked at it from another angle, causing Long Chen's anger to burn again.
"That's right …"
