Within the strange phenomenon behind Long Aotian, nine dragons roared, each three dragons entwined together, rolling endlessly.
In that instant, heaven and earth trembled, blood and energy surged, forming endless waves that overwhelmed the entire world.
"Spiritual blood, spiritual root, and spiritual bone have all been activated. The three have merged, forming the phenomenon of the Three Powers: essence, energy, and spirit merging into one. This is the legendary supreme power. My god, the Supreme Bone has been fully activated." An old man shouted loudly—he was a living fossil-level powerhouse.
Although his cultivation was only at the early stage of Fusion Heaven, his reputation was immense. He was deeply versed in ancient history and various ancient texts, extremely knowledgeable. Seeing the legendary scene, he couldn't help but exclaim.
"Aotian, as the Holy Lord, I order you to withdraw from the tribulation immediately." Long Junwu, the Holy Lord of the Divine Clan, shouted loudly.
Long Aotian shook his head and said, "Sorry, Holy Lord, you are the head of the Divine Clan, so I should obey you."
But this man insulted my mother, and this hatred is irreconcilable. Today, I will execute him. If you insist on punishing him, I will come before you to accept punishment after you have killed him. At that time, whether you want to kill or be executed, do as you wish." Facing
the order of the Divine Clan Holy Lord, Long Aotian spoke calmly, while his mother revealed a sinister smile at the corner of her mouth.
"You..."
The Divine Clan Holy Lord was both shocked and furious, but he couldn't rush into the heavenly tribulation. He could only watch quietly, his face changing with anger.
"Grandpa, once the bow is drawn, there's no turning back. We have no choice in this matter. As long as Long Chen doesn't die, the Long family, and even the entire Divine Clan, will not be at peace. How can we complete the mission?" Long Qifeng said.
"Shut up! Neither of you is a good couple. If it weren't for you, how could the Long family have ended up like this? How did the Divine Clan end up in this state?
If it weren't for your schemes to harm people, with Ao Tian and Long Chen in our Long family, together we could sweep across all directions. Why fear enemies from other worlds? Long Junwu was so angry that he trembled all over and shouted.
Facing Long Junwu's scolding, Long Qifeng shook his head and said, "Grandfather, as the Holy Master, you should consider the future of your family."
In the face of absolute interests, so-called emotional acts and women's compassion only cause harm; those who achieve great things do not fuss over trivial matters.
Ao Tian now possesses such astonishing talent; becoming an emperor is no problem. Once the affairs of the Tianwu Continent are successfully resolved and we return to the Divine Realm, Ao Tian will be the pride of our lineage. Our lineage can bring honor to our ancestors. What's wrong with that?
Some things shouldn't be judged by the process, but by the outcome. Right now, Aotian is our only hope.
Spirit bones, spirit blood, and spiritual roots were all absorbed by Ao Tian. So what? You want to kill Aotian and return them to Long Chen?
Even if he gave it back to Long Chen, would he still be able to use it? Are you going to destroy Aotian, the only hope that could bring honor to the Long family's lineage? After
Long Qifeng's words, Long Junwu's expression grew even darker, but he couldn't refute him.
He was unaware of the Long family's tragedy years ago. By the time he found out, it was already too late—Long Qifeng and his wife had already taken action.
Long Zhantian, in a rage, wanted to kill everyone involved, but among the seven Great Lords, six knew about this—only he didn't.
Perhaps because of this, under Long Zhantian's relentless revenge, he was the only one who survived intact.
Thinking back to when Long Zhantian was full of ambition and advanced to Saint Lord at a young age, achieving this level before his fortune was activated, it showed just how powerful he was.
Unfortunately, all of this was ruined by Long Qifeng and his wife. When Long Aotian was born, a strange phenomenon descended from the sky, destining him for an extraordinary life.
According to the Divine Clan calendar, Long Aotian's generation was destined to become the protagonists of the dark era, and becoming emperor was almost a foregone conclusion.
But Long Chen's birth made Long Qifeng and his wife jealous. Exotic spiritual roots, divine bones, supreme blood—those were truly born immortal seedlings.
At that time, Long Qifeng was the second strongest among the younger generation of the Divine Clan. In terms of combat power, no one but Long Zhantian could rival him.
But one was the strongest and the other the second; the gap between them was worlds apart. In front of Long Zhantian, Long Qifeng couldn't even withstand ten moves.
It can be said that at that time, Long Zhantian stood at the pinnacle of the Divine Clan, achieving far more than any ancestor of previous generations at a young age.
But this peerless prodigy was destroyed just like that. Long Junwu's heart bled, so no matter how outstanding Long Aotian was, he never paid him any mind.
Now, knowing that Long Chen was still alive, his heart was filled with excitement. But now, he could no longer stop this battle. In that instant, he seemed to have aged much more.
As the Holy Lord of the Divine Clan, whether it was Long Zhantian or Long Chen, he could only watch helplessly, feeling a deep sense of powerlessness.
Now that the boat was done, it was irreparable. This was an irreconcilable conflict, and no amount of compensation could Long Chen make. Can you give back everything he lost?
"Perhaps this is a fateful duel. Letting Aotian kill him is Long Chen's best fate." Long Qifeng looked at the disheartened Long Junwu, a hint of a triumphant smile appearing deep in his eyes as he sighed.
"Fate?" Maybe. A
trace of gloom appeared on Long Junwu's face. He waved his hand, turned around, and left, disappearing from everyone's sight in an instant.
"Holy Lord?"
All the Divine Clan experts were shocked. What did the Holy Lord mean by this? How did he suddenly leave and stop caring about anything?
"The Holy Lord couldn't bear to see disciples fighting each other, so he had no choice but to leave. However, the Long family has produced two peerless geniuses, and now that they're dueling here, it's truly eye-opening. I'm really looking forward to it." After the Holy Lord left, the Zhao family patriarch wore a sinister smile and said with schadenfreude.
Long Chen's identity emerged, leaving everyone in the Long family embarrassed. The dirty scandals from years ago were all exposed, and this secret was completely exposed. This was the biggest scandal of the Long family.
The Long family should have had terrifying geniuses like Long Zhantian, Long Aotian, and Long Chen, but now Long Zhan Tianxia is missing, and Long Aotian and Long Chen have become mortal enemies.
Now, with the two facing off in the heavenly tribulation, no one could stop them. In other words, after today, it was very likely that only one of them would survive the tribulation.
For the Zhao family, having already lost Zhao Ritian, whether Long Chen killed Long Aotian or Long Aotian killed Long Chen, it was good news for them. Whenever they saw the Long family fighting among themselves, the Zhao family head felt a surge of joy.
Because Long Chen was the murderer of Zhao Ritian, and Long Aotian's indirect inaction of failing to save Zhao Ritian was essentially killing him. Both were his enemies, and according to the Zhao family head's wish, it would be best if both died together.
At this moment, all the strong figures on the Tianwu Continent turned their gazes to Long Chen and Zhao Ritian, their hearts instantly hanging in the air.
"Long Chen, do you want to save your strength? Sister will help you cut him down."
The five Great Emperors had been silently watching Long Chen until suddenly Emperor Hanwei spoke, and the moment he spoke, everyone was shocked.
