Nine Star Hegemon Body Art - Chapter 5184 Lu Chengkong
Chapter 5184 Lu Chengkong
Long Chen had just killed the two vice deans, who were half-step Human Emperors. Using the shockwaves from their deaths to his advantage, he shouted at the palace.
The experts of the First Academy, both the Elders and the disciples, involuntarily quivered. Long Chen resembled a death god, standing in the air with his eight-color divine ring spinning behind him. It was as if this divine ring symbolized the revolution of the heavens, and Long Chen himself was a god in command of reincarnation, able to kill anyone with just a thought.
The hearts of the branch academy’s disciples clenched as Long Chen seemed to want to kill them all. In that case, their dean, Lu Chengkong, was their final hope.
The Dragonblood Legion felt their blood boiling with excitement. Truly, their boss had never let them down. His return this time shattered their previous understanding of strength.
Guo Ran, Gu Yang, and the others clenched their fists. Their boss truly was the boss—forever unrivaled.
Seeing Long Chen challenge a Human Emperor, the entire Dragonblood Legion was affected. They had the urge to charge into the palace right now.
However, after Long Chen spoke, no response came from the palace. The outer divine light barrier continued to hold.
Seeing this scene, Long Chen raised his hand and summoned Evilmoon. Its domineering and sinister appearance threatened to split the souls of the branch academy’s experts. All of them turned cold, feeling as if they had been dropped in an ice house.
Back in the Heavenly Flame Devil Domain, the Grandmist primal elixir that Long Chen absorbed was mostly divided between the Earth Cauldron and Evilmoon, with only a small portion being absorbed by the Demon Moon Cauldron.
Although Evilmoon was still in seclusion, that didn’t prevent Long Chen from using it. In any case, he didn’t need its power; its powerful blade and appearance were enough. Evilmoon was the only weapon that could contain Long Chen’s full power.
“If you’re not going to come out, then I won’t stand on courtesy!” shouted Long Chen. The next moment, a giant saber-image tore into the sky, splitting the dome of the heavens. It then fell with a slicing sound, as if the world was being sliced apart.
All the experts behind the barrier felt their souls ache, their bodies quivering. Even with the barrier’s protection, they felt as though their souls would be extinguished even before the saber fell.
At this moment, Heaven Saints, heavenly geniuses, those from Heaven Rankings and Earth Rankings—all were equalized in front of this saber. In the face of death, everyone was on the same level.
A dense sensation of death filled everyone from the first academy. But even at this moment, the dean did not appear.
BOOM!
Just as Evilmoon was about to strike the palace, a hand covered in black dragon scales blocked it.
Though the saber was blocked, the shockwaves spread, instantly obliterating all the buildings around the palace. Amidst the flying sand and rubble, the spectators saw the owner of that hand, and they were shocked.
“Palace master!”
Long Chen had not expected that the person to stop him would be the palace master.
“That was a powerful attack!” praised the palace master as he started at Long Chen with admiration. Although he had blocked Long Chen’s Saber Qi with his bare hand, the scales on his palm were sliced apart, and his palm was bleeding.
Within the crowd, Bai Letian smiled slightly. It seemed that everything was within his expectations.
“Greetings, palace master!” greeted Long Chen.
Though Long Chen didn’t understand why the Palace Master had intervened, he held immense respect for him. Moreover, everyone in the Dragonblood Legion owed the Palace Master a debt of gratitude for his blood. No matter how powerful Long Chen was, he wouldn’t act recklessly in front of the Palace Master.
After the palace master blocked Long Chen’s attack, everyone from the first academy collapsed from nervousness. Moments ago, they had thought they were about to die.
The palace master observed Long Chen and then patted his shoulder hard, shaking his body. He smiled. “Excellent. Your power exceeds my expectations. With you here, how could the High Firmament Academy not rise to glory?”
Given how taciturn the palace master usually was, this praise was exceptionally precious for Long Chen.
“Palace master, you are...?” asked Long Chen slowly.
The palace master smiled slightly and turned toward the palace, saying, “Dean Lu, open the barrier. Let’s talk.”
“Dean Long Chen, Dean Letian, palace master, please come inside. Let’s... chat.” A voice rang out from within the palace. It sounded tense, almost trembling.
At this moment, the barrier retracted.
“Let’s go.” The palace master smiled, and the three of them walked toward the palace. The experts standing before it quickly pulled back, creating a wide-open path.
By now, the experts had shed all their former arrogance. When they looked at Long Chen, their eyes held only fear and a hint of reverence.
The rank one and two of the Heaven Rankings felt like ants in front of Long Chen. Thinking of how arrogant they had acted, they had the urge to find a hole to bury themselves in. They had been frogs at the bottom of a well, and today, they were witnessing the true might of a peerless heavenly genius.
The gates slowly opened. When Long Chen, the palace master, and Bai Letian walked in, they saw a fair-faced, middle-aged man waiting for them.
This man looked scholarly, exuding an Emperor’s aura, with an indistinct dragon figure coiling above his head. He was a true Human Emperor, one who had succeeded in merging nine dragon qi into one.
However, when Long Chen looked at him, he felt no pressure at all. In fact, this dean seemed even weaker than the two half-step Human Emperors that Long Chen had crushed.
This person was the first academy’s dean, Lu Chengkong. He held the highest cultivation base in the academy. Nervously, he cupped his fists toward the three of them. “Greetings, palace master, Dean Long Chen, Dean Letian.”
“Everyone else, leave. Other than the four of us, no one else is permitted in this palace. Anyone else will be executed.” The palace master suddenly swept his gaze over the surroundings.
These people didn’t dare to hesitate and immediately left. After that, the gates slowly closed behind them. Outside, the branch academy’s experts felt their hearts clench once more. When those gates opened again, their fates would be decided.
