Chapter 1441: Two Armies Face Each other
Long Chen stood at the front, facing the distance. A pitch-black wave was slowly coming over.
This black wave seemed to be slowly devouring the world. It was a boundless sea of darkness.
This black sea was composed of the Dark Forest’s tree demons. Hundreds of millions were approaching, and their berserk and vast auras were starting to rage through the air.
Although the tree demons were still extremely far away, their killing intent had already reached the Dragonblood Legion. If it was before, then such an impact would multiple the pressure they were feeling. Even experts that had gone through a hundred battles would have their hearts crumble.
Due to Long Chen’s speech before this, and their new comprehension of what the point of the battle was, none of the Dragonblood warriors were afraid.
Not only that, but there was also that figure standing at the front of all of them. Although he wasn’t huge, that figure gave them a boundless drive. He was their undefeatable G.o.d. As long as he was present, no matter how pessimistic the situation was, he would be able to lead them to victory. This was their unswerving belief.
Long Chen stood at the front, his long hair and black robes billowing back. His staunch face was still completely calm, and his starry eyes possessed a reserved light. No one could tell what he was thinking.
Chu Yao, Meng Qi, and Tang Wan-er had unconsciously held hands, staring at him with a soft and adoring expression. Everyone wors.h.i.+ped heroes, and when that hero was also their beloved, they felt an indescribable feeling of grandness.
Normally, Long Chen liked to laugh and joke around without any propriety. But at important times, no one was more dependable than him.
Even as the wave of darkness got closer, no one felt the slightest fear. The only thing welling up within them was battle intent. To fight alongside Long Chen was a supreme glory. This was the special charisma that Long Chen possessed.
The darkness got closer, and the atmosphere began to become taut like a bow being drawn. The air grew heavier.
Now that they were closer, the Dragonblood Legion could see experts from the human race at the front of the army of tree demons.
What shocked Long Chen was that there were hundreds of thousands of human experts, and the Corrupt path occupied the majority of that number.
Behind the human experts was the army of tree demons. They were all giants, and their crowns covered the sky.
From within the forest of tree demons came the roars of Magical Beasts. It was even possible to see some of their huge bodies between the tree demons.
“Long Chen, I didn’t expect you to really have some guts. But your current actions are nothing more than a mantis trying to stop a carriage. You don’t seem to know just how weak you are.”
A disdainful voice came from within the dark army. The voice wasn’t particularly loud, and yet it rumbled through heaven and earth. It was like the world was resonating with his words, and that made the Dragonblood warriors’ hearts shake. They had never seen such a terrifying figure before.
When that person spoke, they felt the energy of the world grow distant toward them.
The speaker stood in the air, his eyes like golden lanterns, a pair of wings on his back. The world shook around him. He was the ancient race’s Empyrean, Peng Wansheng. When he spotted Long Chen, killing intent blazed in his eyes.
“Even three slaps didn’t fix your habit of shooting off your mouth. I must regretfully tell you that there’s simply no cure for your illness.” Chewing a stalk of gra.s.s, Long Chen spoke as if he felt sorry for Peng Wansheng’s incurable disease.
The Dragonblood warriors’ jaws dropped as low as possible, their eyes almost popping out. Although they didn’t know who Peng Wansheng was, just the fact that several rank nine Celestials were standing deferentially behind him showed what kind of figure he was.
Furthermore, they all felt a great Heavenly Dao suppression from him. It felt like the Heavenly Daos no longer cared about them, and all their energy was surging toward him.
This was their first time seeing such a terrifying figure, but Long Chen said that he had slapped him three times?
“Long Chen, if I don’t tear you to pieces today, I’ll change my surname to yours!” roared Peng Wansheng.
