Chapter 1797: Despair

Long Chen actually used the Celestial Lightning Body Blink to flash by the giant drake .

“Childish . ”

The giant drake snorted with disdain . Its giant tail suddenly slammed into the lightning sea .

A huge wave erupted from the lightning sea, blocking Long Chen’s path .

“Split the Heavens 6!”

As if he had long since expected such resistance, Long Chen slashed with his lightning blade . A giant cut appeared in the huge wave, and without hesitation, Long Chen charged through .

Long Chen was thankful that Split the Heavens had such immense penetrative power . Even this kind of giant attack could be easily pierced by it .

Once he was past the wave, he heard the giant drake’s roar . Clearly, it hadn’t expected Long Chen to have such power . It gave chase .

Its body was huge, but it was incredibly quick . However, Long Chen was also fast . Now that he was ahead, the drake couldn’t catch up .

Suddenly, the lightning sea erupted, and one giant drake after another appeared out of it, blocking Long Chen . When they opened their mouths, swords of lightning pierced through the air at him .

Each of the lightning swords was like a long mountain range . Booming sounds echoed through the air .

Seeing these attacks, Long Chen summoned lightning wings on his back . His speed increased again, and he shot past the lightning swords .

At this time, Long Chen was surprised to see nine of these giant drakes . They were all attacking him at the same time .

Long Chen’s heart pounded hard . At this time, the elder’s words resurfaced in his mind . Other inheritances had a ninety percent chance of failure, but this place had 99 . 99% .

To be blocked by nine powerful drakes comparable to Netherpa.s.sage experts, let alone Long Chen, even Netherpa.s.sage experts would have to submit .

If it was just one, perhaps Long Chen would have some urge to fight . But with nine of them, taking them head-on would be suicide .

Based on that drake’s words, as long as he could obtain that paragon art rune, he would be able to establish a new contract . In other words, if he obtained it, he would pa.s.s . These drakes wouldn’t be able to attack him any longer .

He pushed the Celestial Lightning Body Blink to its peak . He was like a phantom flitting through their attacks .

The nine drakes were launching a furious barrage of attacks . It was like nine giants were attacking a mosquito, but this mosquito was too fast . They couldn’t hit Long Chen, and it made them roar furiously .

Huge waves surged out of the lightning sea as they did everything in their power to stop Long Chen .

However, the sixth form of Split the Heavens pierced the waves easily . Rather than stopping Long Chen, the waves ended up hindering their own speed . Long Chen was rapidly approaching the core .

As he got closer to the core, he became even more shocked . This place that looked like an hourgla.s.s was where two sources of lightning energy were intermingling . Both sides looked identical .

The lightning energy formed a mysterious cycle . At the core, there was a giant image that looked like a gate with a pair of wings and a spear .

Long Chen had no time to examine the two sources of lightning, nor did he have time to carefully look at this rune . He charged toward it .

The nine drakes were unable to stop him . He was too fast and nimble, infuriating them .

Just as Long Chen was starting to smile, he suddenly felt his heart drop . An intense sensation of danger welled up from within him .

His intuition built up from years of walking the line between life and death made him stop and retreat at full speed .

BOOM!

Just as he retreated, a silver claw smashed down from the sky, cras.h.i.+ng down right where he had been .
