Long Chen didn't know why Long Qifeng suddenly came in, but when he saw Long Qifeng's face so close to him, he instinctively slapped him.
"Smack!"
Long Qifeng was slapped hard by Long Chen, causing blood to gush wildly and spinning like a top, flying backward.
"Bang!"
Long Qifeng crashed into the sky curtain, but was bounced back by the barrier. People were shocked to find that his cultivation had been suppressed to the initial level of the Fusion Heaven Realm.
"How could this be?"
Long Qifeng looked at Long Chen in terror, then at the Zhongzhou Cauldron trembling in the void, he was stunned.
He used a secret technique to reduce his cultivation and forcibly activated the Central State Cauldron to flush Long Aotian out. But why did Long Aotian go out, but he came in?
"I didn't expect you to have some guts, risking your own life to save your son. Looks like you're a bit better than the beasts." Long Chen stepped into the void, carrying the Dragon Bone Evil Moon, step by step toward Longqi Peak.
He didn't know how Long Qifeng got in, but seeing Long Qifeng's terrified expression, he knew this was definitely an accident. He had rescued Long Aotian and ended up getting himself involved.
Now, Long Qifeng's cultivation was suppressed to the initial stage of the Fusion Heaven Realm. Here, in front of Long Chen, he was nothing but a dish and posed no threat to Long Chen.
"What on earth is going on?" Long Qifeng, such a big man, watched Long Chen approach step by step, his roar tinged with tears.
"I heard you were the second top expert of the Divine Clan back then, ranked just below my father? Let me see for myself. As Long Chen spoke, the Dragon Bone Evil Moon in his hand had already been slashed down.
Long Qifeng's eyes were filled with fear. Only by entering the heavenly tribulation could one truly feel how terrifying Long Chen was—a crushing force that made one despair, even more terrifying than Long Zhantian back then.
With a loud explosion, Long Qifeng blocked his sword in front of him, shattering both the sword and his arm, blood spraying wildly as it rolled far away.
Everyone gasped. Long Chen was too strong. Long Qifeng couldn't even fight back against him. At the same level, Long Qifeng was like an ant.
Long Qifeng roared in anger, catching the seal with both hands. The blood he spat condensed into chains again, instantly enveloping the Central State Cauldron.
He had been refining the Zhongzhou Cauldron for many years and had some control over it. He wanted to use his own essence blood to activate the cauldron again. That was his only hope of escaping the heavenly tribulation. Here, he would only be killed by Long Chen, and even a swift death would be a luxury.
"Buzz!"
The Central State Cauldron glowed, and a powerful voice echoed through heaven and earth: "Thank you for nourishing me with your essence and blood over the years, which has helped me recover quite a bit." The
Central Continent Cauldron actually spoke, and for a moment, all the powerful beings were shocked.
"Since you thank me, why are you tricking me? Hurry up and teleport me out." Long Qifeng was both shocked and furious. The Central State Cauldron had awakened, and he vaguely sensed something was wrong.
"I didn't set you up. Although you nourished me with your essence and blood, it was actually to control my sleeping self. You have your schemes, but I still owe you a favor.
I sent your son out, repaying the favor. We owe each other nothing. "Zhongzhou Ding said calmly.
Everyone suddenly understood: the Central Continent Cauldron had sent Long Aotian out to settle a karmic debt.
"Nonsense! You're the one who tricked me! Teleport me out quickly." Long Qifeng roared angrily. He saw Long Chen already carrying the Dragonbone Evil Moon and walking toward him again, his face turning green with fear.
"Sorry, I didn't teleport you in. Because you interfered with the karma of the heavenly tribulation, you were sucked in by it. It has nothing to do with me." The Central Plains are in the Dingdao region.
"Bastard!"
Long Qifeng roared in anger, his whole body filled with blood energy. Endless blood-red chains surged within the Central State Cauldron, trapping it. He was willing to consume a large amount of vital blood just to forcibly control the cauldron, or else he would surely die.
"The Divine Blood Curse is indeed powerful, but once I find a new master, your blood curse will be useless."
Suddenly, a divine light flew over the Central Continent Cauldron, sweeping toward Yuntian and the others, as if the cauldron had opened its eyes, sizing up everyone.
"You want to choose a master?" Am I the most suitable? Senior, let's hang out together. Seeing the Central State Cauldron about to select a master, Mo Nian jumped up excitedly and shouted desperately.
"Buzz!"
As soon as Mo Nian finished speaking, a divine light suddenly sucked Mo Nian in, sending him directly to the front of the Central State Cauldron.
Mo Nian shouted excitedly, never expecting the Central Continent Cauldron to truly recognize him as its master. This was an incredible honor—the master of the Five Supreme Divine Artifacts. How incredible that was.
"His personality isn't steady enough, and his looks are a bit sleazy..." Zhongzhou Ding looked at Mo Nian, seeming a bit hesitant.
"Senior, senior, let's discuss this. I can change my personality, but as for appearance, that's because my parents gave it to me. At worst, I can just wear a mask."
Whatever style you want, I'll wear that style of mask. Senior, the moment I saw you, I knew we were destined. Really, ..." Mo Nian saw the Central State Cauldron hesitate, screaming in fright and starting to spout nonsense.
"Forget it, I don't have time to find the right person. I'll just make do for now. But let me be clear: if we don't get along, I'll choose someone else." Zhongzhou Ding said helplessly.
Perhaps Mo Nian was not the right candidate for him, but now, to break free from Long Qifeng's Heavenly God Blood Curse, Zhongzhou Cauldron had to settle for second best, because among the group within the tribulation, Mo Nian was indeed the most suitable for him.
"Buzz!"
The divine light of the Central State Cauldron enveloped Mo Nian. Suddenly, Mo Nian's clothes shattered, his whole body bloody and mangled. At the same time, it felt as if countless maggots were gnawing at his body. The intense pain made Mo Nian's whole body convulse, but he endured it hard, not making a sound.
Having witnessed Aman's recognition process, Mo Nian was mentally prepared. Perhaps to show off his heroic spirit, he forced himself to endure it, not even frowning.
"Kid, you're not bad. Deep down, you're pretty tough."
The Zhongzhou Cauldron seemed fairly satisfied with Mo Nian's performance, with a hint of appreciation in its tone.
Long Qifeng suddenly panicked. The maggots on Mo Nian were actually a divine curse, transferred by the Central State Cauldron to Mo Nian.
This curse was originally meant for dealing with divine weapons. When it falls on a person, aside from causing some pain, it does not pose a fatal threat.
Long Qifeng changed his hand seals again, but just as he formed them, a big slap landed on his face, sending him flying.
"Pfft"
Long Qifeng's arms were severed by Long Chen with a single stroke, so Long Qifeng could no longer form seals and break the Central Continent Cauldron's recognition of its master.
A thought flashed through Long Qifeng's mind: It's over, completely over.
"Hoo" Long Chen's
large hand grabbed his throat, lifting Long Qifeng up like a chick.
"Say, my biological fatherWhere is the mother? "
