Chapter 1238 The Emperor Sent me to Patrol the Mountains
There were quite a few of the Grand Xia’s warriors staring at Long Chen’s back from the western gate . They were full of reverence .
Although Long Chen’s time in the Grand Xia Ancient Nation had been short, practically everyone from the Grand Xia knew him .
In the Four Nations Ancient Remnant, he instantly killed Li Wanji and Han Bijun, then on his own, he fought against five incredibly powerful experts, preventing the Grand Xia’s army from being completely annihilated .
Now that he was leaving, they had a bad taste in their mouths . Even these guards knew that the ancient races had long since laid down a heaven-encompa.s.sing net and were just waiting for Long Chen to leave .
After an hour of travel, Long Chen suddenly sneered . He took out an iron pot and a hammer, banging the hammer against the pot like a gong .
Clearing his throat, he began to sing, “The emperor sent me to patrol the mountains, but he warned me to beware! Little b.a.s.t.a.r.ds nest within these mountains! An iron pot opens the way, little b.a.s.t.a.r.ds scramble to the side…”
Long Chen banged the pot as he sang . It was definitely not a pleasant song to listen to, as there was no rhyme nor key, but each and every word was crystal clear .
The ancient race experts hidden within the mountains instantly turned dark-faced .
Long Chen was walking through the major national path . There were countless mountains to the sides, and it was unknown how many ancient race experts were hidden within . But this singing of Long Chen’s had already broken their plot . He was essentially pointing and cursing at them, making them feel like their lungs would explode .
“Little brat, just a bit longer! Just wait! Once I capture you, I’ll definitely make you regret this!” cursed one of the ancient race experts .
Although Long Chen had already come out, he was still too close to the Grand Xia’s border . They were waiting for him to get a bit further before attacking .
“When the sun sets over the western mountains, every family has to lock their doors . The b.a.s.t.a.r.d stew is accompanied by tiger bones and eagle wings…” Banging the pot, words simply flowed out of Long Chen’s mouth . They became smoother the more he sang . “Elephant tusks on barbecue, tiger skin as warm clothes, eagle wings as fans . Plenty of stuff to exchange for tips…”
“That b.a.s.t.a.r.d! I’ll kill him, I’ll definitely kill him right now!” One of the eagle race experts had to be held back by another expert .
The eagle, tiger, and elephant races’ experts were all infuriated . They had never seen such a hateful brat in all their lives .
This was the absolute worst kind of humiliation . It was disdain toward all of the ancient races . He was actually treating them as comodities .
Long Chen continued, singing as he rapped his pot . “Tiger skin is loved by everyone as medicinal paste, and elephant tusks can be traded quickly for big money…”
Suddenly, three ancient race experts appeared in front of Long Chen . There was one from the elephant race, eagle race, and tiger race each . They all possessed powerful Soul Transformation auras .
Their eyes were scarlet, their killing intent almost solid . Now they were finally far enough from the Grand Xia’s border and were finally attacking .
But to be safe, they decided to send out three Soul Transformation experts as a test while the other experts secretly watched . They were also there to prevent anyone else from launching a sneak attack and saving Long Chen .
Seeing those three, Long Chen put on a delighted expression . “Wow, how fortunate! I was calling you for so long that my throat’s sore, but at least I’ve finally encountered my clients! For your eyes to be so bright, I can tell that you know what’s what . This little one has some excellent eagle wings, elephant tusks, and tiger claws here . Are the three of you interested?”
“Die!”
The three Soul Transformation experts roared furiously and slammed their palms at Long Chen . With the three of them attacking at the same time, heaven and earth rumbled, and incredible pressure locked onto Long Chen .
“How rude! Are you trying to steal my wares?!” Long Chen suddenly formed hand seals .
A huge medicinal cauldron appeared in the air and smashed down at the three of them . Its runes caused the void to buzz .
The three Soul Transformation experts were instantly blown apart by the medicinal cauldron . Three translucent figures appeared in the air . It was their Yuan Spirits .
“It’s an Ancestral item!”
“Impossible! How can he possibly use an Ancestral item?!”
The ancient races’ experts were all stunned . Ancestral items were normally things that could only be controlled by Life Star experts . A Soul Transformation expert would only be able to use thirty percent of its power . Ancestral items had their own pride, and they wouldn’t submit to people weaker than them .
But Long Chen’s attack had clearly brought out the Ancestral item’s full power . Even three of their Soul Transformation experts were unable to block it .
What they didn’t know was that their understanding was based on the fact that Ancestral items needed to be enslaved in order to be used by those weaker than them . That was to avoid a backlash against their master .
So although the slave mark was safe, it inhibited the Ancestral items’ power . The Ancestral item would only use its power in accordance with the power of its master . With a slave mark, a Foundation Forging cultivator wouldn’t even be able to use a hundredth of its true power .
They had all known that Long Chen had an Ancestral item, but they hadn’t cared . They were unaware that Long Chen hadn’t placed a slave mark on the Blazing Dragon Cauldron .
In other words, nothing was inhibiting the Blazing Dragon Cauldron from freely using its power . Although its core had been heavily injured by the black pot, it was still able to instantly kill three Soul Transformation experts in one attack .
“Get in!”
