"Ancestor, bad news! The Stone Spirit Clan has launched a surprise attack!" As soon as Long Chen and Chu He came out, someone immediately reported it.
Chu He's expression changed, and he and Long Chen rushed toward the fortifications immediately. When they landed at the fortifications, Long Chen saw countless giants several zhang tall, their bodies covered in petrified skin.
These petrified giants had icy auras and black patterns covering their bodies. Their auras were completely different from Shi Tongtian's, filled with an evil aura.
Long Chen had also encountered the Stone Spirit clan in the Heavenly Fire Demon Domain. Although their auras, he could still clearly distinguish them, likely belonging to different branches of the evil spirits.
Countless Stone Spirit clan warriors, wielding stone axes, stood before the defensive ramparts, radiating murderous intent. Their eyes were inlaid with multicolored gems, shining with divine light, looking exceptionally beautiful and the most precious treasures.
However, these beautiful eyes, embedded in their faces, make people feel no sense of beauty; instead, they seem fierce and terrifying.
Yet in front of the endless Stone Spirit experts, there stood a long-haired man with a gloomy face, followed by four Six Vein Emperor-level Stone Spirits.
When Long Chen arrived atop the fortifications, the strong warriors from Tianyu City were already on high alert. Giant crossbows were aimed at the stone spirits below, and everyone on the fortifications was tense, sensing that a great battle was about to break out.
Long Chen looked down from above, his eyes sweeping across the room, finally settling on the long-haired man, whose eyes were fixed intently on Long Chen.
The man had a strange face, a broad forehead that protruded forward, but his eyes were small and triangular, and his mouth was so wide it almost reached his ears.
"Kid, you look so young, still wet and still wet. If you don't want to die, leave Tianyu City quickly, or you'll have no place to bury your body." The man looked at Long Chen, a sinister smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. That smile was like a venomous snake baring its mouth, sending chills down one's spine.
Seeing that person targeting him, Long Chen curled his lip and said, "You must be Jiang Yiming, right?" Heh, no wonder you left Tianyu City. I, Long Chen, have met countless beings from the mortal realm to the immortal realm, but few have ever been as ugly as yours.
If Senior Chu hadn't introduced you, I would have thought you were a toad turned into a spirit. Hanging out with these stone-skin monsters, you two really make a good match." "
Who is Long Chen, and what kind of spectacle hasn't he seen?" Jiang Yiming suddenly brought people to attack, clearly knowing that an outsider had arrived in Tianyu City and deliberately came to test the waters.
The Stone Spirit clan didn't mobilize their entire force but instead contributed part of their strength, which showed they had no intention of attacking. They only wanted to probe Long Chen's background and see if he would influence their plans.
It was obvious without hesitation that a traitor from within the city had spread the news of Long Chen's arrival. If Long Chen were just an ordinary person, Jiang Yiming might not have taken it seriously, but after all, Long Chen had come riding a golden-maned lion at the level of a three-vein emperor.
Moreover, after coming, he entered the ancient tower with Chu He, which was what Jiang Yiming cared about most. So, he immediately brought people to probe Long Chen's background.
But as soon as he said the first sentence, Long Chen choked him so hard he nearly lost his temper. Jiang Yiming was proud and aloof by nature, and part of his proud personality was because of his unusual appearance.
As a child, his appearance made him strange and sensitive. As an adult, he became eccentric, withdrawn, and extremely hostile. Anyone who dared to mention his looks, or even gave him a strange look, would hold a grudge. Later, when he became powerful, those who mocked him were secretly tormented to death.
No one knows how many years it has been since no one dared to mention his sore spot, but Long Chen wouldn't let him go—he tore open his scars directly.
"Kid, you're asking for death!" Jiang Yiming instantly flew into a rage.
"Looking for? You're such a big pile of crap here—do I need to look elsewhere? You're not just a pile of crap, but a pile of filthy and ugly filthy filth that betrays your masters and ancestors, is unkind and unrighteous. Long Chen saw he had hit a sore spot and didn't hold back at all, immediately adding fuel to the fire.
As soon as Long Chen said this, countless strong figures on the fortifications secretly cheered for him. They had long hated this traitor, but when it came to him, everyone felt both hatred and fear.
Because Jiang Yiming's strength was so great that he was already the deputy chief of the Stone Spirit clan, even enemies wouldn't dare insult him.
They thought they feared that one day Tianyu City would be captured by Jiang Yiming. They knew Jiang Yiming's character well—if they had cursed him, they would surely die without a grave. If they didn't, they might still have a chance to survive.
Now, Long Chen had voiced their true feelings, and they felt extremely satisfied, especially the younger disciples, who were thrilled.
Previously, Long Chen didn't dare accept Liao Yong's challenge, which made many people feel hesitant. Some even thought he must have used some strange method to control the Golden-Haired Lion, and his own strength wasn't very strong.
But now, with Long Chen fiercely attacking Jiang Yiming, everyone's admiration for him naturally arose. Whether he was strong or not no longer mattered; at least within Tianyu City, no one dared to insult Jiang Yiming like Long Chen did.
"Creak creak creak... Jiang
Yiming's fists creaked loudly, veins bulging on his forehead. His already ugly face looked even more ferocious and terrifying, and the fierce killing intent had almost become tangible.
"Are you going to poop?" Sorry, we don't have any urine or defecation here. If you want to defecate, please move somewhere else!" Seeing Jiang Yiming feeling uncomfortable, Long Chen kindly advised him.
"Boom!"
With just one sentence from Long Chen, Jiang Yiming was completely shaken by his defenses. With a loud explosion, his aura burst forth, releasing the aura of a Four-Vein Emperor. A vast divine might swept across the heavens, and the entire world trembled.
The moment he unleashed his power, a fierce aura locked onto Long Chen. Chu He's expression changed, ready to strike, fearing that with his aura locked, Long Chen would be severely injured by Jiang Yiming's strike.
Long Chen stopped Chu He and just let him lock onto him. Jiang Yiming was probing his true intentions. According to cultivators' reactions, once someone locked onto him, Long Chen's power would instinctively erupt to counter the lockdown.
But Long Chen's power had long been controlled by his heart and was unaffected by Jiang Yiming's influence. He couldn't expect to uncover Long Chen's true nature just by locking on.
Faced with Jiang Yiming's lockdown, Long Chen's dantian energy trembled uncontrollably, instinctively wanting to release power to resist. However, Long Chen controlled it, preventing it from releasing energy.
Long Chen stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at Jiang Yiming below. A trace of mockery appeared at the corner of his mouth, but he said nothing, just looked at him calmly.
At this moment, the strong warriors of Tianyu City were all tense, gripping their weapons tightly, ready for a fierce battle at any moment.
"Damn kid, just you wait!"
However, to everyone's surprise, Jiang Yiming actually restrained his aura, waved his hand, and left with all the powerful members of the Stone Spirit clan.
