With the Purple Sun Emperor by his side, Long Chen suddenly became arrogant, standing with his hands behind his back, looking down at Ye Ming.
At this moment, Ye Ming looked at Emperor Ziyang with a face full of terror. Clearly, he was more learned than Long Chen and knew who this person was. Precisely because he knew, his face was filled with terror.
"You don't need to be afraid. My big brother won't go after you. Come on, let me see what you've improved lately." Seeing Ye Ming staring at Emperor Ziyang with a face full of terror, Long Chen felt secretly pleased, as if borrowing the might of a fox to borrow the tiger's power.
"Here, you cannot defeat him. All the undead in the City of Wrongful Death are under his control. His Eye of the Undead has already been activated. Although it hasn't reached its strongest yet, focusing on controlling a few Fusion Heaven Realm undead is not a problem."
Some of the undead here were left behind during the great war between gods and demons. They are extremely powerful, far beyond what you can handle now. "Emperor Ziyang reminded him.
Long Chen's heart tightened. This guy's eyes were actually the Eye of the Undead. Could it be that he cultivated dark power just to open the Eye of the Undead? Then control the undead here?
"Buzz!"
The Purple Sun Emperor tapped a finger on the barrier in front of him. The powerful barrier trembled violently, then shattered instantly under Long Chen's horrified gaze.
The terrifying barrier before the Great Emperor was as fragile as paper; with a single finger, he opened it.
The barrier shattered, and Ye Ming's figure flickered, instantly merging into the altar and vanishing without a trace.
"Escaped?"
Long Chen was surprised. He thought the Ziyang Emperor would never kill Ye Ming, or rather, he simply wouldn't bother to kill him.
"No, he's gone to bring reinforcements. Long Chen, watch closely—your true future enemy is about to appear." Emperor Ziyang said.
Reinforcements? Long Chen was stunned. Before he could react, suddenly, endless black mist swirled above the altar, rising like smoke. The air was dark, decayed, and filled with an aura of death. Even a breath of the air made one feel weak and aged. Startled, Long Chen blocked the presence from his body.
"Ziyang, I didn't expect to see you again, hehe. But right now, you're just a remnant soul. What else can you do?"
From within the black mist came a cold voice. A shadow slowly emerged, revealing an elderly man with dark skin who looked like a corpse.
The old man wore a black robe and held a bone staff in his hand. At the head of the bone staff was a small skeletal skeleton.
The skull was only the size of a fist, but it had three faces, looking like a miniature version of a human skull. In its eye sockets, strange ghostly flames flickered. Long Chen stared at the ghostly flames and suddenly felt a dizziness in his divine pool, nearly falling from the sky.
Long Chen was shocked, only glancing at the skull. Most of his soul power had actually vanished.
"Very good. No need for help—you can break free from the mental restraint of the Six-Eyed Demon Eye. Your mental strength is very strong." The Purple Sun Emperor looked at Long Chen, a hint of admiration in his eyes.
Long Chen couldn't feel happy at all. Who exactly was this guy? How could it be so terrifying? He didn't attack, just glanced at the skeleton and was momentarily stunned. He even lost more than half of his soul power. The difference was simply worlds apart.
And judging by that person's tone, it was clear he knew the Purple Sun Emperor. Could it be him? Long Chen seemed to understand immediately.
Facing the strange old man, the Ziyang Emperor smiled slightly and said, "Even if a remnant soul remains, I dare not forget the kindness of heaven and earth that gave me life. I must devote myself wholeheartedly until death."
Last time I killed you, I didn't expect you to still have a trace of your soul escaping. Your undead clan's divine abilities are truly astonishing. "
Just as expected, Long Chen's heart raced wildly. No wonder it was so terrifying—it turned out he was the foreign powerhouse who had fought the Ziyang Emperor for three days and nights before being defeated.
"Our undead clan, as long as we're in an area covered by the aura of undead, even if we're killed, our souls will remain.
Shattered souls will reunite, eventually restoring their primordial spirit. Though I have lost my body, I am still alive now, while you, the great Emperor Ziyang, are left with only a remnant soul, soon to dissipate into the world. Hahaha... The elder of the undead clan laughed heartily, as if celebrating his victory.
Back then, he was slain by the Ziyang Great Emperor, but he was able to use the laws here to regain life. Meanwhile, the Ziyang Great Emperor was left with nothing but a remnant soul. It must be said, this was also a kind of victory.
"Because you lost your physical body, you cooperated with Ye Ming?" When the time comes, will he possess it? Long Chen sneered.
The elder of the undead clan looked at Long Chen, and Long Chen immediately felt a tightness all over, as if all his weaknesses had been exposed before this person, sending chills down his spine.
But this time, Long Chen was prepared, his mind constantly guarded, leaving no flaws.
The elder of the undead clan chuckled, a sinister grin appearing on his gaunt face: "The sixth generation Emperor?" He doesn't look like it, but his inner evil is probably no less than ours. He's just a hypocrite. Is this your successor? It seems the Tianwu Continent has truly declined. "
Even if you decline, I can still easily cut off your successor. If I were at the same level as you, if I didn't beat you to a pulp, I'd say your ass is solid." Long Chen retorted, this old guy instantly provoked his anger.
"Not very capable, but quite a bit of a mouth. Let me teach you a lesson." The elder of the undead clan snorted coldly and suddenly struck down with his palm. The void was shrouded in endless darkness, plunging the world into darkness. His divine sense was sealed, and even Long Chen could not sense the presence of the Purple Sun Emperor.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a loud explosion sounded as if it came from a distant world. Long Chen was startled; he knew this was the Ziyang Great Emperor fighting the elder of the undead clan.
Caught in endless darkness, he lost all contact with the outside world. In that instant, Long Chen felt a chill run down his spine, as if he were a blind man standing on the battlefield.
"You can fool my senses, but you can't fool my intuition." Long Chen snorted coldly, then suddenly slapped his palm, lightning flashing in his palm.
"Boom!"
Long Chen struck the void with his palm, producing a loud explosion. The thunder rune in his palm shattered, lighting up the sky. Long Chen's large hand struck an old face.
The owner of that old face was none other than the elder of the Necromancer clan. The old man was sent flying by Long Chen's slap, and the dark curtain vanished with Long Chen's slap.
Long Chen's vision returned, and in the void stood eight massive figures. The Ziyang Emperor stood with his hands behind his back, his face calm. The eight figures slowly shattered, seemingly slain by the Ziyang Emperor.
"If you want to deal with him, just do it directly. Why make things worse? Are you afraid I'll help him?" The Purple Sun Emperor shook his head as he looked at the elder of the undead clan who had been slapped away by Long Chen's palm.
It turned out that when the elder of the undead clan attacked Long Chen, he also attacked the Emperor Ziyang. The loud noise Long Chen heard was the very sound the Emperor Ziyang made when he struck.
The Ziyang Emperor didn't take the elder of the undead clan to heart. He knew that, for certain reasons, he wouldn't kill Long Chen—just as he wouldn't kill Ye Ming—he wanted Long Chen to lose face.
Unfortunately, he underestimated Long Chen. His spiritual domain could not suppress Long Chen's instincts, but what the Ziyang Emperor did not expect was that it would end in this way.
A giant of the undead clan was slapped by Long Chen—ZiyangThe Great Emperor was both shocked and amused. Back then, he had fought him for three days and nights, yet he could never have done such a shocking feat himself.
"Courting death!"
The elder of the undead clan was slapped away by Long Chen and instantly flew into a rage. He swung his bone staff, causing the void to burst open, and endless wails, screams swept across the heavens like raging waves.
In that instant, Long Chen felt his eardrum being torn apart, his soul crushed, and he nearly lost consciousness in an instant. He had never encountered such an attack before.
"Boom!"
The Purple Sun Emperor made his move. A flying rainbow streaked across the sky, divine mist swirling, waves of harmonious energy radiating across the nine heavens, and the earth-shattering ghostly screams were suppressed.
Although the wailing and screams still raged like a tsunami, making Long Chen's head ache split, he could barely endure it.
"Facing a young man, you actually use a wailing and ghostly roar. It seems that after all these years, you haven't made any progress at all." The Purple Sun Emperor raised a sky full of radiant light, shielding Long Chen from the ghostly howls, shaking his head and speaking dismissively.
"Foolish humans, you are a bunch of hypocrites. Why pretend to be so noble? You are a mixture of contradictions, freaks born from the fusion of justice and evil.
Although I was defeated back then, I still refuse to accept it. This time, I will personally annihilate the Tianwu Continent and wipe out all of you humans. The elder of the undead clan suddenly flew into a rage, cursing loudly.
It seemed that the Purple Sun Emperor's indifference made him feel utterly humiliated. The bone staff in his hand flashed with light, and countless giant dragons surge forth from the endless darkness.
Those dragons carried the aura of primordial chaos, as if they were divine beasts emerging from ancient mythology. Their aura caused countless fine lines to appear in the space, like stumps of ice, as if the entire world could no longer withstand their power and was about to explode.
"Long Chen, take a good look. This is the special ability of the undead clan. They can summon beings from other worlds.
Some of these otherworldly beings were raised by them, while others were captured by them. This was somewhat similar to the beast tamers of the Tianwu Continent.
However, these beings can freely switch between reality and illusion within the aura of the undead, and their divine abilities are unpredictable.
His life-bound mount has already been slain by me. These beings were probably nurtured by him later, and their auras are extremely weak. "
Still weak?" Long Chen felt his scalp tingle. Each black dragon's strength was equivalent to a powerful Fusion Heaven Realm expert unleashing their full power, wasn't it?
"I don't have much time and can't lure them to use their innate divine abilities one by one. That's all for now. I'll kill him again to buy you some time."
After the Purple Sun Emperor finished speaking, behind him, a purple sun rose. In that instant, the vast imperial might filled the heavens and earth, changing the color of eternity.
