"Rumble!"
The moment Long Chen shattered the Thunder Sword, the entire world trembled, and then a ball of thunder light appeared on Long Chen's body.
"You despicable thing, Thousand Blades! You've already been locked onto by the heavenly tribulation. Let's see how you escape this time!"
Yu Zihao looked at Long Chen wrapped in a ball of thunderous light, his eyes filled with cruelty. In his mind, the image of Long Chen being tortured to death by him already flashed through his mind.
"A disciple of Great Brahma, how can you be so stingy? You can't even take a joke. It's just taking something from you, making it sound like I killed your own father and stole your wife." Long Chen said with a look of disdain.
"You..."
Yu Zihao was furious. Long Chen had set him up so badly, yet still called him stingy. His lungs felt like they were about to explode, but for a moment, he didn't know how to respond.
Because such a shameful thing can't be spoken of, because even if he did, no one would sympathize with him—it would only make him more embarrassing.
"Zihao, a man on the verge of death, why get angry? Later, I'll refine him into a pill and give it to you. "Just then, a voice came from afar.
Long Chen looked toward the voice. Within a cluster of light, a figure flickered, seemingly seeing Long Chen look at him, deliberately making the orb clear so Long Chen could see his face clearly.
It was a red-haired man with a cold face, his eyes staring coldly at Long Chen, looking down on him like a god watching an ant.
"Which pit are you from, turtle? Do you think dyeing your hair red means you can pretend to be a red-haired turtle? ... Huh... Oh... I can tell—he's a disciple of Great Brahma, yet you're willing to come out and help a dog eat dirt.
Great Brahma and Luo Tianye are colluding, so does that mean you're Luo Tianye's disciple? Long Chen had intended to tease this guy a bit, but suddenly guessed his identity.
"Nonsense! You fool who spouts filthy words and blasphemes the gods—I'll turn you into a pill right now." The red-haired man was instantly furious with Long Chen, his hair standing on end.
Long Chen guessed correctly—this man was Luo Tianye's disciple, and it was precisely because of this that he was so furious.
"Brother Gengjian, calm down. He's already locked onto the heavenly tribulation anyway. Killing him now would be too easy for him. We'll make sure he suffers until he dies." This time, it was Yu Zihao's turn to comfort him.
"Brother even more lowly?" This name is well made—there's no such thing as the most despicable, only the more despicable. The older generation colludes with others, while the younger generation is healthier. Long Chen clapped his hands in praise.
Luo Tianye's disciple trembled with anger, but in the end, he held back. He formed hand seals, thunder roaring around him, enveloping himself and ignoring Long Chen.
Yu Zihao was the same. He sneered coldly at Long Chen and simply shut down his six senses. He knew that in a verbal battle, he was no match for Long Chen, and silently waited for the heavenly tribulation to arrive.
At this moment, the thunder light around Long Chen began to grow thicker. Clearly, he had been successfully recruited into the Tribulation Crossing "Squad."
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Long Chen's mouth. Trying to use the heavenly tribulation to harm him—how could such a ridiculous idea exist in this world? It didn't matter, as long as you didn't cry when the time came.
"Long Chen, let's see how you escape this time." Yu Zihao and Luo Tianye's disciples fell silent, and another voice came from afar.
Hearing this voice, Long Chen didn't even turn his head and lazily said, "Sounds like you were the one who escaped last time, right?" If it weren't for the protection of the ancestral scales, I would have already turned your Nether Dragon Amaterasu into a pile of Dark Dragons. So
Minglong Tianzhao was here too. However, when Yu Zihao targeted Long Chen before, he hadn't acted, and only now did he have the chance to speak.
But when he spoke, the onlookers outside were all shocked. They didn't know who Long Chen was, but they did know that anyone daring to undergo tribulation here must be the most terrifying monster-level powerhouse.
These onlookers were also guardians. The strongest monsters in their clan had already undergone tribulation here. They had long set up a grand formation to protect their leader.
Because even the strongest monsters face the greatest heavenly tribulation and risk perishing. Even if they don't fall, after crossing the tribulation, their vitality will inevitably be severely weakened. At this moment, they are at their weakest and must have someone to protect them.
There were many guardians; one person crossed the tribulation, and the entire clan's strong warriors came to protect them. The number of them ranged from several million to tens of millions.
Moreover, those who came here to protect the Dharma were the elite of the clan, the strongest among the strong, showing just how much they valued this tribulation.
With the arrival of these monsters, these guardians had almost no interaction among themselves. Only some guards from hostile factions sometimes mocked each other, but there was no physical conflict.
But with Long Chen's arrival, he was targeted. From their conversation, they could tell that Yu Zihao had suffered a major loss at Long Chen's hands before.
As soon as Minglong Tianzhao spoke, it was clear that Long Chen had beaten him up before. Both super monsters had grudges with Long Chen, so it was clear that Long Chen was definitely no ordinary person.
Previously, the person who had dug Long Chen's pit began to feel uneasy. Although he knew Long Chen, he had only heard of his name and seen his portrait, but he didn't truly understand Long Chen.
He suddenly felt a bit afraid. His thoughts could never be hidden from Long Chen; he feared Long Chen's revenge would bring disaster upon their entire family.
"A single loss or loss doesn't mean much. Knowing shame and then being brave is the true warrior. Soon, I'll show you what real strength really means." Minglong Amaterasu said coldly.
"One win or loss doesn't matter, but what about twice?" Long Chen retorted.
"You..."
This time, Minglong Tianzhao's anger surged. The so-called 'killing and brutal heart' meant he had indeed been defeated twice by Long Chen, and both were crushing defeats. Long Chen's words struck a vital spot.
"No need to question whether you're brave or not. After losing too many times, you'll gradually get used to it. But there's a saying: 'Once and twice, not three times.' If I count on my fingers, today you won't escape disaster. Long Chen pretended to be formal, making a finger-pinching gesture.
"That's right, there were once and twice, not three times. I just wanted to see who was truly doomed." Minglong Amaterasu sneered, seemingly full of confidence in himself.
"My creed is: only one, no two. If you scheme against me once, the second time I meet you is your death date!" At that moment, a chilling voice rang out, like the whisper of a messenger from hell, sending chills down one's spine.
The voice came from a huge orb of light. Within that orb were a person, a carriage, and a horse. As soon as he spoke, the onlookers were all shocked:
"Does this person have a grudge?"
