Chapter 795 (2/2)
“Furthermore, the legends say that the ancestor was in the midst of divining something when he hurriedly recited those lines and completely ascended away . ”
The old tribe leader quietly recited, “The dragon swims through the mortal world, the immemorial revives; lightning breaks the sky, the end of the ten worlds! The dragon swims through the mortal world… the dragon swims through the mortal world… Long Chen!”
The old tribe leader was startled . Did that line really refer to Long Chen?
“It’s too early to say anything now . It could just be a coincidence . But when the ancestor ascended, he was extremely hurried . He didn’t leave behind any clues . Even after all this time, no one understands the meaning . As for this Long Chen, it’s true that he came a bit out of nowhere, but there’s nothing strange to it .
“To put it according to my Heaveneye tribe’s viewpoint: understanding the past from the consequences is easy . It’s predicting the consequences of the past that is difficult . There are thousands of possibilities . A single change can bring forth countless possibilities,” said the white-eyed elder .
“Then are you saying that Long Chen’s arrival here is due to the unseen hand of fate?”
“I wouldn’t dare to say something like that so early on . So we should just continue watching . If Long Chen really is the one the ancestor’s words foretold, then he is also the key to solving the riddle of his final words . ” The white-eyed elder looked at Long Chen . Countless red strands condensed within his eyes, slowly forming red pupils .
Long Chen and Xiao Gu were looking at each other . In the distance, Xiao Fei and Xiao Yu were tightly clenching their fists . They were nervous for Long Chen . Here in their homeland, Xiao Gu would be able to release one hundred percent of his strength .
Xiao Ling was also worried . She had never expected things to reach this point . This was completely out of her prediction .
She had thought that since Long Chen had saved Xiao Fei and Xiao Yu, and especially since Xiao Fei was the future tribe leader, he would be rewarded by the tribe with some compensation and perhaps some help regarding the Immemorial Path . In the end, everyone would be happy, and the Xiao tribe wouldn’t owe him anything .
But now, for Xiao Fei, Long Chen was actually fighting their Xiao tribe’s strongest junior generation member . Things had progressed completely out of her control .
“Long Chen, now I’ll return the humiliation you’ve given me ten times . But don’t worry, I won’t kill you . That is our Xiao tribe’s pride, hahaha!” sneered Xiao Gu .
Within his generation, other than Xiao Ling, there was no one else that could fight him . So he always considered himself as the future leader of the Xiao tribe .
That was also why he continuously suppressed Xiao Fei . As for the higher-ups, they silently accepted his actions in order to motivate Xiao Fei and see if he could awaken his latent power . Unfortunately, Xiao Fei’s potential continued to remain dormant after all this time . Their hopes for him were growing remote .
During this time, Xiao Gu had raised his reputation in the tribe and was already the junior generation’s leader .
So of course his pride was provoked back when Long Chen had almost killed him . The suppression of the Heavenly Daos had weakened him, and if it hadn’t been for Xiao Fei’s shout, he would already be dead .
That was his greatest setback . Then, upon returning to the tribe, Long Chen had slapped him in the face . That had destroyed any bit of his remaining pride .
Although he couldn’t kill Long Chen with the old tribe leader present, he had already thought things through . He would completely humiliate Long Chen . He would make him kneel on the ground and beg for mercy . A sinister light shone in his eyes . He could already see the scene of Long Chen kneeling and begging him .
Just looking at Xiao Gu’s sinister smile, Long Chen knew exactly what he was thinking . He sneered, “You can also be at ease, because I also won’t kill you . After all, I disdain killing petty people like you!”
His words immediately caused quite a few people’s expressions to change . He was intentionally provoking Xiao Gu . If Xiao Gu accidentally killed him, then the Xiao tribe’s name would be tarnished .
“Courting death!”
As expected, Xiao Gu immediately became enraged . His aura erupted and the s.p.a.ce behind him trembled . An illusory scene of a thirty-mile sea appeared .
A projection of the qi sea . Only a Celestial could summon such a clear projection . That sea was a reflection of his true qi sea .
It was the specific manifestation of a Sea Expansion expert . When their full strength erupted, their qi sea would also surge, forming a link with heaven and earth, giving them the greatest possible strength .
An ordinary Xiantian expert’s qi sea would only be a few dozen meters wide . But once they reached Sea Expansion, through constant expansion, they could increase that by tens or even hundreds of times .
Naturally, an increase in the size of the qi sea represented an increase in spiritual yuan . In the Xiantian realm, due to a lack of spiritual yuan, it would be difficult to release powerful moves . But Sea Expansion experts could release those moves easily .
Now, Xiao Gu had released his aura, and runes began to surge around him, scouring heaven and earth . His spear pierced toward Long Chen .
Recall that Long=dragon and Chen=dust as in the dust of the mortal world .
