Chapter 5254 Devil Creature Sea
Chapter 5254 Devil Creature Sea
The Human Emperor realm, named after the human race, symbolized the pride of humanity. However, for other races, it was a crippling roadblock. Many heavenly geniuses with grand aspirations had seen their dreams crushed by this barrier. For those with incredibly powerful physical bodies, being forced to remain in human form without being able to fully wield their might was a tormenting limitation.
But now, with the dragon race leaders breaking through to the two-vein Emperor realm, they had shattered that limitation. Their power surged, increasing by dozens—perhaps even a hundred—times.
This realm was the greatest shackle for non-human races. But once surpassed, their suppressed power would erupt like a volcano.
Everyone had been stunned by Gold Rhino’s terrifying aura at first, but when these race leaders showed their true forms, Gold Rhino looked insignificant in comparison.
Hundreds of giant dragons flew in the sky, emitting terrifying pressures. Let alone the dragon race’s disciples, even Long Chen, who had personally done this, was extremely shocked. He was witnessing the full terrifying potential that the dragon race should have always possessed.
The race leaders were ecstatic, as they had long given up hope of regaining their true forms in this lifetime. But Long Chen had restored that dream for them. Their gratitude was beyond words; if Long Chen asked them to die for him, they would gladly comply.
“Gold Rhino, we are heading toward the depths of the Endless Desolation. Thank you for accompanying us this far. If fate allows, we will meet again. Here, take this Barrier Breaking Pill. When you reach the threshold of the next realm, it will give you a fifty percent chance of advancing,” said Long Chen, handing Gold Rhino the pill.
Gold Rhino had been watching over the Dragonblood Legion all this time. But now that they were leaving, it had to say goodbye. As the Endless Desolation was enormous and filled with dangers, this farewell meant they would probably never meet again.
Gold Rhino was sad about this parting. In truth, it also wanted to fight alongside Long Chen, but it knew that with its power, it could only accompany Long Chen for a short part of his journey. It had no choice but to say goodbye.
As Gold Rhino departed, the Ten Thousand Dragon Nests began to move. Whether it was the Dragonblood warriors, the dragon race disciples, or even the race leaders, their blood was boiling with excitement. The race leaders, in particular, felt like they had returned to their youth, their hearts filled with the fiery spirit of their younger days.
The red dragon race’s Ten Thousand Dragon Nest took the lead, with dozens of others following, surrounding the white dragon race’s Nest, which carried the Dragonblood Legion and the dragon race’s heavenly geniuses.
The dragon race elders knew that their future depended on the Dragonblood Legion and these young disciples. They would protect the youngsters at all costs.
As the Ten Thousand Dragon Nests soared through the sky, under the guidance of the race leaders, they activated their runes, unleashing pressure unlike any before. These ancient Ten Thousand Dragon Nests had once been the race’s most formidable weapons, but they had been dormant due to a lack of capable wielders. Now, with the race leaders having ascended to the two-vein Emperor realm and returned to their original forms, they could fully awaken the power of these nests.
As the Ten Thousand Dragon Nests advanced, they heard angry roars from below, but those roars quickly turned to silence as large figures retreated.
Initially, the beasts had roared as a warning upon sensing the disturbance, but once they felt the overwhelming aura of the dragon race, they fled in fear. Even two-vein Emperor demonic beasts ran for their lives.
The dragon race’s experts, especially the race leaders, were thrilled to see such a display of dominance. They were finally venting years of pent-up frustration.
“There are so many demonic beasts! We should have snuck up on them and killed a few!” Bai Xiaole exclaimed in regret, watching the fleeing beasts.
“Two-vein Emperor demonic beasts are no longer any challenge to us. Their Emperor pressure barely affects us now. We need to seek out stronger foes,” said Little Nine, perched on Bai Xiaole’s shoulder.
Gu Yang nodded. “After all the hunting we’ve done, we’ve gotten used to their Emperor pressure. The dragon race’s disciples have improved rapidly as well. They are now capable of joining forces to hunt two-vein Emperors. They’ve overcome their primal fear, but they still lack combat experience and sharp battle instincts. They get flustered when something unexpected happens.”
Gu Yang and the others were reporting to Long Chen, as he had tasked them to guide these heavenly geniuses in training. These disciples were originally very happy with Gu Yang’s praise, but they grew embarrassed at the end.
Long Chen said, “Combat experience is something that must be gained gradually by walking the line between life and death. You can’t rush it. The fact that you’ve conquered your fear in such a short time is already very impressive.”
“Really?” asked a female disciple of the dragon race timidly.
Long Chen smiled. “Of course!”
Encouraged by his words, the disciples felt a surge of confidence. They idolized the Dragonblood Legion, seeing every warrior as incredibly powerful. Even the Legion’s healers could hold their own against two-vein Emperors. What amazed them most was the calm confidence each Dragonblood warrior exuded, no matter how dangerous the situation was.
As for the Dragonblood warriors, Long Chen’s praise was the highest honor they could receive.
“Wait, hasn’t it gotten unusually quiet?” Guo Ran remarked, noticing the sudden absence of fleeing demonic beasts.
Suddenly, a deafening sound echoed ahead, and countless dark figures surged toward them.
“It’s devil creatures!” the dragon race disciples cried out in shock.
Long Chen narrowed his eyes, gazing at the approaching horde. “It seems that to enter the Endless Desolation, we must first pass through a sea of devil creatures. Brothers, it’s time to get to work!”
