Chapter 1693 (2/2)

Li Qi and Song Mingyuan had joined in a bit late, so for now, they couldn’t get into the top five hundred. As for Gu Yang, Long Chen couldn’t be bothered to look. Who knew what kind of last place ranking he was fighting for right now?

“Boss, have we gone above and beyond for the mission this time?” shouted Guo Ran as he constantly threw his bombs.

It went without saying that Guo Ran was truly skilled when it came to forging. He had some kind of magnetic item on him that would pull the sharp fragments back to him after they exploded. He then added them into new bombs and tossed them out again.

“You’re thinking too simply. Just wait, in a bit, you’ll all be knocked down.” Long Chen shook his head and didn’t pay any more attention to Guo Ran. He flew off toward the source of the Devil Abyss’s eruption.

The battlefield was constantly being forced to expand by the spatial pressure here. Before, the Dragonblood Legion had been able to hold back the flood. However, now, as the battlefield grew larger, the Dragonblood Legion had no choice but to retreat into the channel.

One reason was because they couldn’t allow the devil creatures to attack the wall behind them, while another was to protect the Xuantian Dao Sect’s disciples. They had to make their preparations for a long-term battle. No one knew when this battle would end.

Now Meng Qi, Chu Yao, Tang Wan-er, Li Qi, Song Mingyuan, and the others had joined the battle. They were all handling their own regions, unleas.h.i.+ng huge area attacks that blocked the majority of the devil creatures. As they were controlling the tempo of the battle, there was no need for Long Chen to worry about them yet.

As for the Dragonblood warriors, this kind of battle wasn’t anything to them considering their experience. It was also unable to threaten their lives.

Without having to worry about this, Long Chen shot past the battlefield, diving past the sea of devil creatures to where they were coming from.

Li Tianxuan had given Long Chen a detailed explanation of the structure of the Devil Abyss. There was a giant spatial node in the Martial Heaven Continent’s underground.

This was a place where the Martial Heaven Continent met a devil world. The devil creatures were coming from the devil world, but thanks to the restrictions of the formations left behind by ancient almighty experts, they could only invade through five spatial openings.

This way, a giant flood was split in five. Rumor was that the Central Xuan Region was there to draw the focus of the devil creatures, so forty percent of the devil creatures were drawn there. The rest were evenly divided between the east, west, north, and south.

The formations gave the Martial Heaven Continent’s experts breathing room. They wouldn’t be immediately overwhelmed by a huge flood of devil creatures. If it weren’t for the formations left behind by those ancient experts, the Martial Heaven Continent might have been devastated by the devil creatures already.

Here, Long Chen could see a giant spatial opening. There were countless runes here, and it was like a giant whirlpool. The devil creatures were coming out of the center of that whirlpool.

When Long Chen arrived, countless devil creatures attacked him, but he merely snorted and summoned golden flames around him. Any devil creatures that entered his flame domain would be turned to ash in less than a breath’s time.

That surprised him a bit. He hadn’t expected the Heaven Incinerating Flame to be so effective against these devil creatures. It had to be known that they were no weaker than ordinary rank nine Celestials, but they weren’t able to block the Heaven Incinerating Flame. They had to be weak to it.

Long Chen ignored the devil creatures and continued examining the whirlpool. He stretched his divine sense inside.

His divine sense pa.s.sed the whirlpool. Inside was a giant spatial channel tens of thousands of miles wide. When he saw the situation in the other world, he couldn’t help gasping.

“d.a.m.n, there are actually this many more?!”

At the end of the channel, he saw countless devil creatures. Furthermore, there were even more varieties of them.

He saw birds, apes, humanoid creatures with snake tails, etc. He also saw a golden sea up in the air.

That golden sea was a giant pack of inch-long mosquitoes. They looked like they had been made of gold, except their mouth was pitch-black.

“f.u.c.k, these are the legendary Shadowless Golden Mosquitoes…”

Long Chen jumped. Legend was that these creatures could activate their golden runes to fade into the air and vanish from sight. Their mouths were extremely sharp, and once they stabbed a person’s flesh, they would instantly poison them. A person’s body would instantly rot, with not even their bones surviving. If their Yuan Spirit didn’t run fast enough, it would also die. They were renowned creatures.

These devil creatures were attacking the channel with all their might. It seemed they were trying to make it larger, or break it down so that they could all enter at once. The giant devils that had entered the channel so far were nothing more than a drop in the ocean compared to this giant army.

“I can’t just wait. I need to take some initiative.”

Long Chen summoned a golden flame sphere. It instantly grew to thousands of meters until it was like a blazing star. He sent it into the channel.

It was like a shooting star as it went against the flow of the devil creatures. Any devil creatures in its path were killed. It shot straight to the end of the channel.

The devil creatures were in the midst of attacking the channel when this sphere flew out of it, stunning them. It seemed they didn’t sense any danger from the sphere.

“Explode!”
