Chapter 1502: Those Who Block Me Will Die

Long Chen looked at the empty gates of the Pill Tower, and a cold smile appeared on his face. Last time, the gates had been packed with people coming and going. But this time, it appeared cold and lonely. The old glory of it had been reversed. Now there were just a few dispirited guards in front of it. They didn’t even notice Long Chen approaching from the distance.

Long Chen was in a particularly good mood today. That was because Zheng Wenlong had sent him news that had lifted a weight from his shoulders. That news was that the Xuantian Dao Sect was safe.

The Xuantian Tower had brought away the Xuantian Dao Sect, but due to some particular reasons, Li Tianxuan was stuck inside and couldn’t leave. However, he had used a secret art to transmit news to the Huayun Sect.

Although Long Chen had felt that the chances that the Xuantian Dao Sect had been destroyed weren’t that high, this news still allowed him to relax. As long as the Xuantian Dao Sect was fine, everything was alright.

Hearing that the Xuantian Dao Sect was fine, Long Chen immediately had Zheng Wenlong contact the Heaven Splitting Battle Sect, Wine G.o.d Palace, Heavenly Sword Gate, and the original devil race.

He couldn’t directly communicate with the original devil race as he didn’t know where their base was in the Eastern Xuan City. But he could pa.s.s information to them through their stronghold in the Grand Xia Ancient Nation.

Long Chen had them not make any moves temporarily. He had enough power to protect himself, and so they could just watch for now.

Although the Xuantian Dao Sect was fine, he knew that the fine ones were just the elite disciples. There had to have been terrible casualties amongst the outer sect disciples and commoners.

Against such a sudden attack, maintaining zero casualties was impossible. So even though the Xuantian Dao Sect was fine, his revenge didn’t stop.

This time, Long Chen would make sure all those people lying in wait, like stalking predators watching their prey, would never be a problem again one way or another. Those people had been watching the Xuantian Dao Sect the entire time, waiting for an opportunity.

Last time, the Xuantian Dao Sect had been reinforced by the Huayun Sect, Wine G.o.d Palace, Heavenly Sword Gate, and Heaven Splitting Battle Sect. That had intimidated their enemies.

Now, he found that it was useless. Intimidation was only temporarily effective. If he wanted to make them stop their predatory stalking, he had to kill. He had to kill until they were completely terrified and didn’t even dare to be his enemy. That was the only way he could be safe.

As for the Seven Star Gate’s provocation, Long Chen scoffed at it. He wasn’t stupid. Why would he jump into such an obvious trap?

Furthermore, through the information he had gathered on his own, he had learned that Qi Yunao had appeared and then vanished again. He guessed this matter to be ninety percent likely related to him.

He wasn’t afraid of Qi Yunao himself, but his Violet Gold Soul Devouring Staff was a half-step divine item. In Evilmoon’s current state, it couldn’t beat it.

Furthermore, the Seven Star Gate wasn’t very powerful. Its divine spring was limited and not worth the risk.

The greater the sect, the more divine spring they would have. And the opposite was true as well. The more a sect declined, the spa.r.s.er their divine spring.

Although the Heaven Suppressing Magic Sect had been one of the three great heavenly sects, its divine spring had been less abundant than the eastern branch of the Bloodkill Hall.

Having plundered the divine springs of over fifty sects, the Divine Gate Star had finally reached its fully condensed state.

But although it had been fully condensed, it still wasn’t perfect. It had to go through the nine star transformations to be complete.

Long Chen had long since given up on consuming the Divine Gate Pills. Absorbing divine springs was millions of times more effective.

At the time when the Divine Gate Star was fully condensed, the FengFu, Alioth, Life Fate, and Enlightenment Palace Stars also entered a strange state, as if they were undergoing another transformation with the Divine Gate Star.

Now Long Chen was unable to see through the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art even more. He could only let it do as it pleased.

After learning of the Seven Star Gate’s provocation, Long Chen had gone into seclusion, and today, he came out, once more heading to the Eastern Xuan City.

After the last battle, many of the people within the Eastern Xuan City had fled far away. Although thanks to him, the commoners had escaped the tribulation, many people found that the Eastern Xuan Region was in chaos now. The Eastern Xuan City was no longer safe, so it was better to find a more secluded place to wait this period out.

Long Chen’s revenge was shaking the entire Eastern Xuan Region, and large battles were being fought every day. No one wanted to be caught up in a fight, as their lives were more important.

Now Long Chen entered the city easily just by wearing a wide, black bamboo hat. No one was investigating the transportation formations, because no one believed that Long Chen would come back to the Eastern Xuan City. The word on the streets was that Long Chen had hidden himself since he was being hunted by all the Eastern Xuan Region’s experts. There were also rumors that he had already been killed. In any case, there was a ma.s.s of contradictory information.
