"What you need to absorb isn't this dragon scale. Not just you—even your Dragonblood Warrior can't absorb this reverse scale." The Chaos Dragon Emperor said.
Long Chen was startled. Judging by the tone of the Chaos Dragon Emperor, this reverse scale didn't seem worthy of them. That was just too frightening.
"The will of this Reverse Scale has already dispersed and cannot be absorbed." The Chaos Dragon Emperor sighed.
"Dispersed?" Long Chen didn't understand what that term meant. The Emperor Dragon's reverse scale was terrifyingly powerful, comparable to the will of the Nether Emperor. How could it have dispersed?
After a moment of silence, the Chaos Dragon Emperor said, "Because the dragons guarding it have never met its standards, over time, it lost confidence and patience, and developed its own soul will.
After draining part of the dragon scale power, it had already left the Dragon Domain and went to find its successor on its own.
As for the remaining dragon scale, it had only willpower but no soul, so the Nether Emperor didn't take it seriously at all.
If the Dragonblood Legion couldn't withstand its dragon blood, it would be nothing more than a decoration."
Long Chen couldn't help but feel a chill of surprise. Such a proud dragon clan—even a single dragon scale has its own will and soul.
The prodigies of the Dragon Domain have never gained its recognition. They would rather give up on them than lower their assessment standards, and in the end, they just left directly, completely ignoring the life or death of the Dragon Domain. That's just too heartless.
Suddenly, Long Chen understood why the silver-haired Void Void knew full well that the Dragon Domain had the Emperor Dragon Emperor's scales, yet still dared to provoke him. He must have known about this; otherwise, he would never dare to cause trouble in the Dragon Domain.
Whether it was the Silver-Haired Void or the Nether Emperor, they both knew the dragon scales posed no threat to them, which is why they dared to act so recklessly.
However, the Nether Emperor did not expect that the Chaos Dragon Emperor had manipulated the power of the Imperial Dragon Emperor's scales through Long Chen's hand, resulting in a heavy loss.
"You left some of its power untouched. That's fine. Change your plan: I'll teach you the Dragon Clan's secret technique and use it to open a small world. However, this requires the strength of all of you. You should recover first." The Chaos Dragon Emperor said.
At this moment, all the elders and clan leaders of the Dragon Domain gathered around. They looked at Long Chen with eyes full of awe. Even though Long Chen was just a minor Heavenly Saint, they dared not show any arrogance.
Long Chen's astonishing combat power and ocean-like wisdom displayed an unparalleled commander's aura on the battlefield, completely conquering everyone in the Dragon Domain.
More importantly, the Emperor Dragon Imperial Scale had been unable to activate for countless years, yet Long Chen could directly use its power to fight the Nether Emperor head-on. Those rumors that had sneered before, now they finally believed them.
At this moment, they approached Long Chen. Even the ancestors stood respectfully, their expressions solemn, waiting for Long Chen's command.
"Thank you for your hard work, Ancestors. All the warriors who have fought in battle, make sure to rest quickly. Later, I have some good news to share with you.
Also, those children who didn't contribute can be brought out to clean up the battlefield. Don't discard or destroy the traitors' bones—gather them together and leave them to me." Long Chen didn't stand on ceremony and immediately began arranging the work.
As the great battle began, most of the Dragon Domain's experts participated in this life-or-death fight, but some people, due to their low strength, could only hide in the defensive Myriad Dragon Nest and watch the fight.
Now, they could just take over cleaning the battlefield for everyone. Long Chen was practically a god of the dragon clan. With just one word, the disciples of the dragon clan immediately came out to work, unafraid of dirt or fatigue, giving their all to prove themselves.
The Emperor Dragon's reverse scale still hovered in the sky, enveloping the entire battlefield. Just as the Chaos Dragon Emperor said, it was basically a lifeless object now. After Long Chen summoned it, it had no self-awareness. Long Chen ignored it, so it floated motionless in the sky.
Now that the great enemy had just retreated and the Dragon Domain had been sunk, only this dragon scale could protect everyone's safety. With it present, no one dared to take advantage of the chaos.
The children of the Dragon Domain worked enthusiastically but lacked experience, resulting in chaos and low efficiency. In the end, the higher-ups of the Dragon Domain couldn't stand it anymore and had to step in to take command.
Long Chen and the warriors of the Dragonblood Legion were all extremely excited, and even with their composure, they could not calm their emotions for a long time.
They actually fought the Nether Emperor head-on—how impressive was that? Not to mention, just the words: 'I once fought the Nether Emperor—how many people would have been scared to death?'
Everyone has vanity, even for the powerful Dragonblood Warriors. Guo Ran and Bai Xiaole were so excited they wanted to sing and dance.
Bai Xiaole immediately knelt down and shouted, "Father, Mother, your son has made a difference! He dares to compete with the Underworld Emperor!"
Guo Ran wanted to keep a low profile, but his restlessness, always wanting to show off his appearance, was just ridiculous.
However, no one laughed at them. After all, that was the Nether Emperor, who once represented the strongest force in this world. To fight him, even if he died, would be an honor that would be remembered for generations.
On the other hand, Long Chen didn't take the Nether Emperor seriously at all, because he was the successor of the Nine Star Lords, the successor of the Nine Star Lords. The Nine Star Lord had slain the Nether Emperor Ghost Emperor to pieces, and his achievements were nothing special.
Long Chen sat cross-legged in the void, instantly entering meditation and beginning to heal and recover, completely unaffected by his emotions.
Long Chen's reaction made everyone feel a bit embarrassed, so they quickly tried to focus and calm their breath, beginning to recover their strength.
The experts of the Dragon Domain watched Long Chen instantly enter meditation and couldn't help but marvel in their hearts. What does it mean to be a peerless powerhouse? This is what a truly peerless powerhouse looks like.
Facing the terrifying Nether Emperor, he never showed a trace of fear; when facing the promises made by the Nether Emperor, he was never moved. He defeated the Ming Empress without a trace of complacency. Long Chen's strength was not only reflected in his martial prowess, but in every aspect of him.
The ancient sealed monsters who had once secretly swore to compete with Long Chen like Mo Yang and Chi Wufeng were now completely convinced.
However, they were not discouraged; instead, their ambition was stirred. With such a peerless powerhouse leading the way, they didn't need to think about anything; they only needed to follow Long Chen's footsteps to reach the pinnacle of this world.
Seeing Long Chen and the others begin to heal, the experts of the Dragon Domain suppress their excitement and join in healing and recovering.
Three days later, the battlefield was cleaned up, and everyone had recovered. Each one was full of vitality. After this bloody battle, the experts of the Dragon Domain seemed to be reborn, their spirits completely transformed. Each one was like a drawn sword, their morale soaring.
However, after this battle, the ancestors' auras had greatly weakened and they had grown increasingly aged. This battle had consumed too much of their lifespan.
However, they showed no sign of discouragement; instead, they grew even more excited, seeing that the Dragon Domain had been reborn, the dragon souls of the dragon children had awakened, and under Long Chen's guidance, the dragon clan had already moved on the right path.
It won't be long before these children's strength surpasses theirs, supporting the entire Dragon Domain. They will no longer have to barely survive.
"Let's begin!"
At that moment, the voice of the Chaos Dragon Emperor echoed in Long Chen's mind.
