Chapter 5151 Prepare for Battle
When Feng You and Bai Yingxue looked up, they noticed that the replicated Earth Cauldron lingered. However, the thirty-six lightning pillars connected to it started to grow transparent. With Long Chen absorbing the tribulation’s energy from within the cauldron, the thirty-six pillars were the first to be depleted.
As the aura of the pillars weakened, the barrier began to shudder as if it was about to collapse. Though these thirty-six pillars were meant to trap Long Chen, they had also been protecting Bai Yingxue and the others from the other hostile experts.
With the pillars now on the verge of disintegration, Bai Yingxue and the others grew tense. The Earth Cauldron above their heads was still shaking, with no sign of Long Chen coming out.
“Prepare for battle!” Bai Yingxue shouted decisively. In response, all the white dragon race’s disciples took out their dragon spears, and the auras belonging to the mid Eternal realm erupted.
BOOM!
As Bai Yingxue had predicted, the thirty-six lightning pillars exploded, and lightning runes scattered through the air, still tinged with a trace of Heavenly Flame energy. They slowly dissipated just like that.
“Long Chen, you ingrate, get out here! Otherwise, I’ll kill them all!” Lu Fan roared, his voice echoing through the heavens with a thunderous force that surpassed even the heavenly tribulation. The sound carried the weight of his Doyen power, resonating with the laws and Daos of the universe.
The intensity of Lu Fan’s shout was enough to make their hearts drop. Having advanced to the Eternal realm, he was even more terrifying now; his power had reached an unimaginable level.
“What should we do?” asked Hu Xiaoyu nervously.
“Stall for as long as possible. We can’t let them affect Long Chen’s tribulation. He should be at the critical juncture right now, and any disruption could ruin all his efforts,” instructed Bai Yingxue firmly.
With Long Chen no longer passing energy down to them, Bai Yingxue could no longer sense his aura. She also had no idea how he was faring.
However, she knew that if he completed his advancement, the first thing he’d do was start a bloodbath. Since he hadn’t come out yet, he was likely at a critical juncture and needed their protection.
The Earth Cauldron replica still hovered ominously in the air. Though its aura had weakened from its initial terrifying intensity, no one dared to approach it carelessly.
“Kill the white dragon race’s experts. I refuse to believe he can keep hiding like a tortoise,” snorted Netherdragon Wushang.
In any case, the Netherdragon race had always been hostile toward the white dragon race, so their experts immediately stepped forward with murderous intent.
Originally, they had brought over eight hundred thousand Heavenly Chosens into the Glacial Heaven Domain, but after the tribulation, only six hundred thousand remained. Losing over two hundred thousand of their elites was a devastating blow to them.
Back when they first entered the Glacial Heaven Domain, the Netherdragon race had listened to the Brahma Pill Valley’s instructions, keeping the majority of their Heavenly Chosens in hiding, with the necessary medicinal pills provided by the Brahma Pill Valley.
As the zealous ally of Pill Valley, the Netherdragon race had followed their plans without question. The strategy was simple: complete their tribulations here and return to the Dragon Domain, where their first objective would be to challenge the white dragon race.
According to Pill Valley’s plan, the Netherdragon race would then slaughter the white dragon race, establishing their might among the dragon race.
The Netherdragon race was different from the others. Their disciples were all war-like and bred to battle, each a terrifying warrior. The fact that so many of them survived the heavenly tribulation was a testament to their strength and resilience.
The Netherdragon race had taken the least losses compared to other factions. In contrast, the Brahma Pill Valley had been hit the hardest, with their numbers dwindling from over a hundred thousand disciples to less than ten thousand. While other factions fared slightly better, the losses were still significant.
The number of losses actually revealed the strength of each race, but it was not the strongest who had more survivors this time. Ironically, the most powerful factions suffered the heaviest losses. Having never faced true adversity or enemies to sharpen their disciples, these factions had produced warriors akin to greenhouse flowers—strong in appearance but fragile under pressure.
Unfortunately, a bitter storm had blown through the greenhouse flowers. The once lofty Heavenly Chosens were viciously reaped by the heavenly tribulation. If word of this got out, it would definitely shake the world.
The loss of so many Heavenly Chosens filled every commander with rage and dread. They didn’t know how they would explain this catastrophe to the higher-ups when they got back.
Although Long Chen was the catalyst for this disaster, the commanders still bore the responsibility to protect their followers. This failure exposed their lack of competence and foresight. As a result, all of them hated Long Chen to the bone, to the point that their hatred extended to the white dragon race.
Within this devastation, only the Zither Sect emerged unscathed. It was all thanks to their high individual power, and most importantly, Liao Yuhuang’s outstanding leadership. At the crucial moment, she led the Zither Sect’s disciples into various formations to withstand the relentless attacks of the tribulation. As a result, even after it ended, they suffered no losses.
This display from Liao Yuhuang filled Qin Keqing with jealousy. Seeing how the Zither Sect’s disciples gravitated toward Liao Yuhuang, leaving Qin Keqing isolated, she seethed with killing intent. Now, when she looked at Liao Yuhuang, her gaze was as sharp as a blade.
However, now wasn’t the time to deal with Liao Yuhuang. Having already lost face, Qin Keqing knew that the only way to recover was to showcase her true power as a show of might.
“Since you already decided on it, hurry up. When did your Netherdragon race learn to only talk instead of fighting?” sneered Qin Keqing.
Qin Keqing’s hateful words made Netherdragon Wushang’s rage boil.
They were supposed to attack together. After all, the white dragon race’s army had plenty of experts, and they had all reached the mid-stage of the Eternal realm. Although Netherdragon Wushang was confident he could handle them, having the Netherdragon race attack alone would result in immense losses. It was something he was unwilling to accept.
His goal was for everyone to crush the white dragon race together so that none of them would face heavy casualties. However, Qin Keqing’s contemptuous words and refusal to join the battle infuriated him.
“My Netherdragon race definitely didn’t learn to talk from you. Your mouth is simply disgusting,” retorted Netherdragon Wushang, not giving Qin Keqing any face.
“You are courting death!”
Qin Keqing’s killing intent erupted as her fingers raked through the void, aimed straight at Netherdragon Wushang’s face.
