Chapter 6407 Three Nines In One

A giant hole appeared before Long Chen. At its bottom lay countless dragon corpses, each one the size of a mountain.

The dragon corpses originated from both the nine heavens and the outside world, forming a gigantic and chaotic burial mound.

Endless ant-like figures swarmed the gigantic corpses and dragged them away. Of those experts, only a small portion were from the vile dragon race. The majority were other outsider dragon races with strange auras.

At the very center of this graveyard, a cluster of figures sat together. When Long Chen saw them, his heart skipped a beat.

There were tens of thousands of them, all of them being terrifying existences with 999 Sovereign flames. This scene was absolutely shocking.

Of these figures, there was a single person without Sovereign flames around him. Instead, a swirling clump of flames churned violently behind his back.

Long Chen’s pupils shrank. This person’s aura was heavy and vast, like a slumbering beast that would unleash devastating power once it awoke.

“Three nines in one... he has actually succeeded!” Long Chen’s heart shook.

As Long Chen took in the countless dragon runes spinning beneath this group of experts and the swelling karmic luck, he understood the truth. They were absorbing the Sovereign flame energy of countless Divine Sovereigns to accelerate their cultivation. It was no wonder their progress was so fast.

The expert who had merged his Sovereign flames radiated pulsing power, shaking the very land beneath him. Yet even now, his convergence was not complete. The clump of flames behind him was still quivering—a sign that the merger had not reached one hundred percent yet.

At this moment, the group of experts spotted Long Chen because of the disturbance on the ground.

“It’s Long Chen!”

Startled voices rang out, filled with disbelief and delight.

If it weren’t for their savage expressions, their voices alone would make it sound like they were seeing old friends after ages apart

Some reacted instantly. The moment they recognized him, they snapped out of their cultivation state and launched themselves toward Long Chen.

In their eyes, Long Chen was equal to the Earth Cauldron—the greatest treasure on the heaven region’s battlefield.

Others also snapped out of their cultivation state to swarm Long Chen. Even those dragging dragon corpses abandoned their tasks and soared into the air.

“Aiya, such a warm welcome!” Long Chen grinned, amused as a tide of outsider dragon experts rushed toward him.

“Hand over the Earth Cauldron and I’ll spare your corpse!”

The fastest of them had already reached Long Chen, his dragon blood surging as a massive hand slammed down.

Long Chen shook his head and sighed. “It’s power that isn’t cultivated by yourself... and it dulls your senses. Even with 999 Sovereign flames, you’re just a slightly stronger idiot.”

This person was only thinking of the Earth Cauldron. Even when Long Chen was standing right in front of him, he didn’t sense the slightest danger. This showed that his increase in power had come too quickly, leaving his combat instincts far behind.

A black figure pierced that heaven-encompassing hand like a bolt of lightning. The next instant, the man’s head exploded.

This man was very fast. He arrived quickly and died even quicker. In fact, he didn’t even know how he died.

“What isn’t earned through your own strength will never truly be yours. Even if given to you, you can’t wield it properly,” murmured Long Chen.

After killing this man, Long Chen could feel the impurity of his Sovereign flames. They were tainted by foreign energies that clashed with the man’s bloodline and soul.

In other words, although these people’s auras were shocking, their actual combat power was garbage.

Based on Long Chen’s estimations, after condensing 999 Sovereign flames, they would still need to refine them slowly, purging incompatible energy. Once that was done, many of them would drop to nine hundred ninety-eight flames... or even fewer.

Cang Lu shot through the air, slaughtering these “powerful” experts. His rampage stunned the crowd. Yet, seeing that it was only Cang Lu, they didn’t panic. They still believed they had a chance.

BOOM!

One of them managed to exchange blows with Cang Lu, stopping his rampage.

“Oh?”

Long Chen turned to that person. His aura was far more stable than the others. The fact that he could withstand Cang Lu’s strike proved that he was truly formidable among them.

That brief exchange boosted these experts’ morale. Encouraged, they charged straight toward Long Chen.

“Kill!”

Roars rang through the air. Whoever captured Long Chen would get the Earth Cauldron—and with it, the chance to overturn their fate.

In truth, many of these experts thought that Long Chen possessed the true Heaven Earth Cauldron. Not many knew it was only the Earth Cauldron.

Even if they did seize it—so what? Once they took it, would they not still die when the others turned on them? After all, the Earth Cauldron couldn’t kill for them.

Blinded by greed, some didn’t care. To them, the Heaven Earth Cauldron was the shortcut to absolute power.

Just then, Cang Lu’s Bloodfiend Halberd appeared, and his aura surged violently. Cang Lu himself was a puppet, but the Bloodfiend Halberd’s item-spirit still retained its will and power. When the two forces merged, their power resonated and soared, making Cang Lu’s might several times greater.

With the Bloodfiend Halberd in play, the expert who had blocked Cang Lu was instantly obliterated—his body and weapon both shattered by it.

Then, Cang Lu continued his massacre. He swept through the experts charging at Long Chen, causing blood to soak the ground.

Cang Lu was like a fervent guardian, while Long Chen stood calm and unbothered amid the chaos, surrounded by a sea of mad wolves.

“Their increase in power has also increased their greed,” Long Chen muttered.

Seeing how crazy these experts were acting, Long Chen narrowed his eyes. They had lost all their rationality.

Their sudden surge in power had made them forsake solid cultivation. Now, they were addicted to shortcuts, chasing one more leap in strength.

In their eyes, as long as they obtained the Heaven Earth Cauldron, they would instantly soar to the very peak.

They couldn’t even think that if such a thing were true, Long Chen would already stand unrivaled beneath the heavens. Would someone like that be their prey on this battlefield?

As time passed, more and more experts joined the assault. The stronger ones, who had been observing from a distance, finally made their move.

A giant bell descended upon Cang Lu. With a swing of his Bloodfiend Halberd, he knocked the bell back. However, it didn’t break, which showed that this bell was not an ordinary Divine Sovereign magical item.

The impact forced Cang Lu to halt. For the first time, an opening appeared in his iron defense.

“Kill!”

Countless experts took this chance to rush past him and charge at Long Chen.

All of a sudden, blood-colored petals appeared, forming a barrier around Long Chen.
