At that moment, everyone's hearts sank. Even someone as powerful as Chi Wufeng couldn't withstand a single strike from the opponent. Did anyone else still have a chance?
Mo Yang and the others felt immense pressure. Some believed they were stronger than Chi Wufeng, but that was only half the level. Chi Wufeng couldn't even withstand a single move—how many could they endure?
What's the point of taking a few hits? Only by defeating the strong on the arena can the passage be opened; otherwise, everything else is just empty talk.
What made them most despairing was that even if they improved their realm, it wouldn't help. As their cultivation advanced, the opponent's cultivation also improved.
They condensed Heavenly Vein Dragon Qi, and the opponent would also summon Heavenly Vein Dragon Qi. When they advanced to Dragon Emperor, the opponent would also be a Dragon Emperor. This was an utterly despairing difficulty.
While the dragon clan warriors wore worried expressions, the dragonblood warriors were all filled with passion.
Although the Dragon Emperor had only used one move, his movements, angles, and timing were all perfectly executed, mastering them to the extreme.
Others couldn't see his movements clearly, but the battle-hardened Dragonblood warriors saw clearly. It was precisely because they saw clearly that their blood boiled with excitement.
This was a true powerhouse; none of them had ever encountered such a terrifying existence in their entire lives. At that moment, all of their hearts itched.
"Brothers of the Dragon Domain, you just went through a fierce battle and suffered many hidden injuries on your bodies.
On the surface, he had mostly recovered, but his soul was still in poor condition, and his senses hadn't fully awakened. He decided not to challenge him for now.
On one hand, it can cause injuries; on the other, it is disrespectful to our predecessors. Most importantly, it wastes precious time." Long Chen pointed at the barrier path that had returned to its original state.
The challenge failed, and the barrier gate would take three days before it could be challenged again. However, the dragon clan experts looked at the barrier above the dome, which seemed like a starry cluster, feeling deeply powerless.
Whether it was the older generation of strong warriors or the new generation of disciples, they all felt so dejected, like nothing.
The Dragon Emperor on the arena was like an insurmountable peak, blocking all their path forward.
"Why are you all so discouraged? Isn't that a good thing? Back then, you were invincible for a lifetime, which is why you were sealed.
Now that you have a peerless expert to challenge and cultivate, facing such a powerful opponent is a rare opportunity.
Fight against them, win or lose, and you'll gain something astonishing. Isn't that far better than being stuck and thinking you're invincible?" Long Chen looked at everyone's grave expressions and couldn't help but smile.
As soon as Long Chen said this, everyone's eyes lit up. Mo Yang and the others immediately dropped their previous gloom and laughed heartily:
"That's right! Only by facing such a powerful figure can we learn and improve. We should be happy."
"That's right. Even if we can't defeat our senior, our gains are astonishing. Why be so greedy?"
"Well said. You have to eat your meal one bite at a time, and walk the road one step at a time. The Dragon Domain isn't built in a day, and even the strong aren't built in a day."
"Hahaha, Brother Long Chen really has foresight. We're still so young, why rush?"
With just one sentence, Long Chen instantly untied everyone's knots. The heavy atmosphere was instantly diluted, and after stopping their stubbornness, everyone was cheerful again.
Just thinking about being able to fight such peerless experts in the future would make it hard not to improve, making him even more excited.
"Boss, we want to try too!" Gu Yang probed.
Previously, they wanted to help the Dragon Domain's experts break through the floating bridge, but Long Chen refused. Now, they simply couldn't hold back.
"Go ahead. There are thousands of barriers here, and even if you pass the first checkpoint, there are more to come. That's enough for you to keep running for a long time.
Only by breaking through all the barriers could one enter the core of the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest and truly control this strongest divine weapon of Emperor Dragon Valley.
Moreover, when you challenge each other, everyone can observe and learn, discuss with each other, and improve together." Long Chen said with a smile.
With Long Chen's agreement, the Dragon Blood warriors shouted excitedly, charging toward the barrier one by one and unleashing their essence blood.
"Buzzing Elder..."
What
shocked the Dragon Domain experts was that every essence blood dripping from the Dragon Blood warriors was recognized by the barrier, and not a single one was rejected.
"Boom boom boom...
The
Dragonblood warriors entered the barrier one after another. Over seven thousand arenas lit up simultaneously, and the spectacular scene drew cheers from the Dragon Domain experts.
"Don't do this, it's such a waste. You should come one by one. We don't have that many eyes to see so many battlefields at once!" A powerful figure from the Dragon Domain shouted.
So many arenas were open at the same time, but they only had one pair of eyes and could only focus on one. Even if two eyes could divide the work, they could only see two arenas. They would inevitably miss the battles happening on the other arenas.
"Rumble rumble rumble...
But no matter how much they complained, it was useless. One arena after another opened, and terrifying powerhouses emerged. These warriors were men and women, old and young, but one was the same—they were all Dragon Emperor experts.
As they suppressed their cultivation to match the Dragonblood Warriors, a fierce battle erupted. The Dragonblood Warriors roared excitedly, wielding the Dragonblood Blade and launching a fierce attack.
Unlike Chi Wufeng's balanced offensive and defensive approach, the Dragonblood warriors only attacked, not defended. Their first strike was the fiercest finishing blow, striving to decide victory within a few moves, never dragging things out.
The Dragonblood warriors had never before been able to fight such a powerful opponent alone. They felt no fear, only a fighting spirit that could burn the blue sky and daylight.
"Boom boom boom...
The
Dragon Blood warriors fought fiercely against the Dragon Emperor's powerhouses. They were all warriors born from mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Every move was forged through countless trials—it could be said that every move was fed with their own blood.
That fierce killing move, terrifying adaptability, and unfathomable movement techniques completely stunned the Dragon Domain experts.
They hadn't expected that the Dragonblood Legion could not only rely on formations to resist the Nether Emperor, but even if anyone was casually recruited, they could be a peerless powerhouse.
"Boom!"
With a loud explosion, a Dragonblood warrior fought for more than twenty moves before being sent out of the barrier. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, his gaze sharp as a blade, and a bloody hole pierced through his shoulder—he ultimately lost.
Yet, facing such a terrifying Dragon Emperor, after holding out for more than twenty moves, the Dragon Domain's experts were so shocked their eyes nearly popped out.
"Boom boom boom...
With the first person defeated, the Dragonblood warriors flew out one after another. In just one breath, most of them had been sent flying, and all had failed.
At this moment, the level of the Dragonblood Legion was revealed: NormalThe Blood Warrior of the Dragon Dragons flew out immediately, while the sergeant sergeant and above continued to hold on.
After several breaths, the sergeant major level was defeated. The team leader continued to hold on, while the sergeant major held out for hundreds of moves, shocking everyone.
After half an incense stick's time, only a dozen or so people were still holding on, but in the end, all were defeated—not a single person succeeded.
"So strong!"
The Dragonblood warriors fought until they were covered in blood, but their eyes were filled with excitement. Only by fighting against the strong could they become stronger.
Although they lost, they were not sad at all, nor did they show any sign of discouragement.
Only now did the powerful beings of the Dragon Domain understand what true strength means. Inspired by the Dragon Blood Warriors, their blood began to boil with passion.
"Brothers, take a break. Next, it's my turn to perform."
At this moment, Guo Ran stepped forward with an arrogant expression.
