Chapter 1071

“Change formations! Heaven earth crane wing formation!”

Long Chen’s expression changed and he hastily shouted . The Dragonblood Legion’s warriors didn’t even think . With Long Chen at the head, they formed a huge two-winged formation . This was their strongest defensive formation .

Everyone saw dozens of huge figures in the devil beast army . They were all ninth rank devil beasts .

After Long Chen had killed the first ninth rank devil beast, two more had appeared successively . They had been killed by Fan Song and Hua Shiyu . Although the two of them had managed to kill the devil beasts, they didn’t have Long Chen’s accurate judgment and were unable to kill it in one easy blow . They had been forced to go all-out to kill their targets .

When Long Chen had killed his, it had felt like it was over before it had started .

But Hua Shiyu and Fan Song had both gone all-out, causing everyone to be aware of how terrifying ninth rank devil beasts were . Other than rank five Celestials, none of them could block them .

Now that seventy to eighty ninth rank devil beasts had appeared at once, everyone’s expressions changed . There was basically no way for them to survive this .

“Yan Mochen!”

Seeing this many of them, Hu Guishan’s expression changed several times before he suddenly cast a special glance at Yan Mochen .

Yan Mochen instantly understood Hu Guishan’s intention . He hesitated slightly, but after looking at the distant Long Chen, a ruthless light appeared in his eyes, and then he disappeared .

The mass of ninth rank devil beasts charged forward . There were no longer any more devil beasts behind them . Suddenly, a huge earthen wall appeared . But those devil beasts instantly slammed their way through it .

That huge earthen wall was as weak as paper in front of ninth rank devil beasts . There was no effect at all .

“Has Yan Mochen gone crazy? He’s blocking all the ninth rank devil beasts on his own!”

Everyone saw a figure rapidly retreating at the front . Yan Mochen was hastily forming hand seals, forming earthen walls one after another that were rapidly blown apart by the devil beasts .

As a result, these devil beasts were drawn over to Yan Mochen and targeted him . Yan Mochen retreated as he repeatedly formed barriers .

Killing intent exploded out of Long Chen . “Yan Mochen, if you dare to harm us, I, Long Chen, swear that whether you ascend to the heavens or flee to hell, I will still kill you!”

Following Long Chen’s furious shout, Hua Shiyu and Wang Zhen’s expressions also changed . Yan Mochen was retreating straight toward Long Chen . He was clearly drawing the devil beasts over to him to exterminate the Dragonblood Legion .

“Hehe, Long Chen, I’m helping you stall for time, but you treat me like this? Then fine, we can just handle our own sides . ”

Yan Mochen suddenly sneered and disappeared from the ground . A rune flowed across the earth, returning to the Hegemon Hall .

Yan Mochen had used an earth evasion technique to escape . Those ninth rank devil beasts lost their target and roared . With furious roars, they charged right toward Long Chen’s channel .

Because there were so many of them, a portion also scattered through the other channels . But the Dragonblood Legion was facing the main force, with almost half the ninth rank devil beasts coming to them .

Long Chen’s side had thirty-five ninth rank devil beasts charging at them, while the neighboring Hua Shiyu was also unlucky . Sixteen of the devil beasts had gone to her side, and icy killing intent shone in her eyes .

Of the remaining four channels, the closest channel guarded by Wang Zhen had to deal with nine of them . It was unknown whether it was because they were intimidated by the insect army, but those devil beasts preferred to spread to the other channels .

Hu Guishan, Fan Song, and Que Xinyan charged to the front of their channels, doing their best to kill the ninth rank devil beasts . Behind them, Yan Mochen, Han Yunshan, Wei Changhai, and the other peak experts also attacked .

These three factions had gathered practically all the peak experts from the four outer regions . Other than Yan Mochen, Han Yunshan, and Wei Changhai, there had also been two other rank five Celestials who had been recruited . Although they were not innate rank five Celestials, they were much stronger than rank four Celestials .

These three factions possessed the highest number of peak experts, and they were facing less than thirty devil beasts in total, making it so they were under the least pressure .

“Guo Ran, don’t keep holding back . Bring out your killing weapon, quick!” shouted Long Chen .

Guo Ran clenched his teeth and took out a huge crossbow the size of a war chariot . Its body was dark red and covered in runes . As soon as it appeared, it smashed a hole in the ground . Guo Ran was unable to hold it on his own .

He quickly took out a golden spear with a yuan spirit stone embedded in it and set it on the crossbow .

Buzz .

Guo Ran pulled the trigger . A golden light flew out at the ninth rank devil beasts .

BOOM!

The spear exploded once it reached the ninth rank devil beasts, its body transforming into sharp fragments that pierced through the nine rank devil beasts’ flesh . A rain of blood erupted .

“A month’s work for just a bang…” Guo Ran’s heart was dripping blood . This was a new weapon he had just created . Only Long Chen had known about it, and he hadn’t even tried using it before .

Those fragments were so sharp that even the flesh of ninth rank devil beasts was unable to resist it . However, such small fragments were also not able to kill ninth rank devil beasts with their huge bodies .

But the power behind this explosion had caused the charging ninth rank devil beasts to slow down for a moment . That was exactly what Long Chen had wanted .

“Raging Flame Prison!”

Long Chen formed hand seals, and countless flame chains appeared in the air, enveloping all those ninth rank devil beasts . At the same time, a sacred light came from Long Chen’s face as he began to chant a scripture that resounded with heaven and earth . It was like gods were chanting along with him .

Heaven and earth’s flame energy surged toward the flame chains . Long Chen also used all of Huo Long’s power to condense this flame prison . He made it as strong as possible .

More chains continuously appeared . Back when he had used this move in the Eastern Wasteland, the flame chains had only been the width of an arm . But now they were already as thick as a person’s waist .

As the chanting of the Nirvana Scripture filled the air, the chains continued to grow, and the flame energy also grew stronger .

The ninth rank devil beasts crazily attacked the Raging Flame Prison . Intense rumbling sounded, but they were unable to shake the flame prison .

“Huo Long, squeeze out all your power . Flame Prison Deathblow!”

Long Chen ordered Huo Long not to hold back . His own spiritual yuan poured forth .

The huge flame prison immediately trembled . The world seemed to lose all its sound, as if time had frozen .

The flame prison suddenly shrank, compressing all the ninth rank devil beasts into a three-meter ball .

Then the flame prison exploded . Long Chen’s hands also exploded, turning into lumps of flesh, and he vomited blood .

Huo Long’s current power was too great, and after being amplified by the Nirvana Scripture, the flame energy had far surpassed what the magical art was able to bear . Thus, Long Chen received a heavy backlash .

Fortunately, all the ninth rank devil beasts had been killed . However, Huo Long had also been heavily injured and would be unable to move for a short time .

After killing all the ninth rank devil beasts, Long Chen looked back to see that Tang Wan-er and the others had already charged over to Hua Shiyu’s faction, helping her with the devil beasts .

Long Chen took a deep breath and also rushed over . Hua Shiyu’s face was currently as pale as paper . She had previously used a forbidden technique to kill eight ninth rank devil beasts .

That had caused her to suffer heavy internal injuries, but she clenched her teeth and continued to fight . The Heaven Female Alliance was taking huge casualties . These ninth rank devil beasts simply weren’t something they could handle .

Tang Wan-er, Gu Yang, and an armored Guo Ran were each fighting against one ninth rank devil beast on their own . Li Qi and Song Mingyuan were circulating the earth’s energy to protect the Heaven Female Alliance’s people to avoid even greater casualties .

Blood-colored light flashed . One of the two devil beasts that Hua Shiyu was fighting was killed with a slash from Long Chen’s saber .

“Thank you . ” Hua Shiyu’s eyes were slightly red . If it hadn’t been for the Dragonblood Legion, there might no longer be a Heaven Female Alliance .

“Quickly kill them . ”

Long Chen had already charged over to the ninth rank devil beast that was forcing Song Mingyuan and Li Qi to repeatedly retreat .

The two of them had already activated their Spirit Blood and were doing their best to protect everyone . But it still wasn’t enough . Seeing that their defenses were about to break, Long Chen hastily slashed his saber .

Blood-colored light filled the sky and then disappeared . The Heaven Female Alliance’s disciples couldn’t help but be stunned .

That huge ninth rank devil beast’s body slowly split apart . Through that crack, they saw a wild and domineering figure that was charging at another ninth rank devil beast .

Long Chen found that although these devil beasts’ offensive power was extremely great, they had no intelligence . As long as someone was capable of blocking them from the front, a sneak attack from one of their blind spots was fatal . They could be killed in one blow .

Long Chen killed three of them, while Hua Shiyu killed hers and went to assist Tang Wan-er . All the devil beasts were quickly handled .

The battlefield descended into a deathly silence . Hua Shiyu looked over the Heaven Female Alliance . In just an instant, thousands of her sisters had died . Killing intent raged in her eyes .

“I’m going to kill people . Do you want to come?” asked Long Chen .

“Let’s go . ” Hua Shiyu clenched her teeth .

“All of you just stay here . Don’t move,” ordered Long Chen to the Dragonblood Legion . Walking side-by-side with Hua Shiyu, he looked toward the three factions . They were also icily staring back at them .
