Chapter 503: Long Huang Intervenes, a Palm That Shakes the Heavens
The iron‑winged lizard's tenacious vitality gave Ya Lei Ge Si a powerful backing, greatly boosting its own vitality as well.
Coupled with Ya Lei Ge Si's own astonishing attack power and the tenfold attack bonus granted by the Primordial Rune, it would be hard for any other class to suppress it unless Jiang Chen appears.
Now Jiang Chen may have victory assured, but the only thing to watch is that Ya Lei Ge Si must not escape.
After all, its level is what it is; if it tries to flee, it will be hard to intercept.
In past experiences, similar incidents have occurred many times.
Therefore, Jiang Chen has resolved this time to keep them forever within this Secret Realm.
Ya Lei Ge Si, trapped in a desperate battle, now realizes it has no chance of winning.
In anger and despair, it finally sees the reality and roars, "Why are you just watching the fun from the side? Come help!"
At this moment, Ya Na Liu Si's heart is full of fear and hesitation.
It does want to step forward to assist, but facing Jiang Chen's formidable strength, it truly lacks confidence.
It knows how terrifying Ya Lei Ge Si's combat power is, yet even so, Ya Lei Ge Si is still beaten without any chance to retaliate.
So if I go up myself, how much effect can I actually have?
But Ya Lei Ge Si's calls keep coming, and it cannot ignore them.
Thus, it brandishes its sharp sword, summons courage, and charges forward.
Jiang Chen senses that Ya Na Liu Si's aura is much weaker than when they last met, evidently because the previous consecutive eruptions of ancestral Bloodline caused considerable damage.
Such injury is not easy to recover from.
Ya Na Liu Si rushes forward, and Jiang Chen merely deflects a few blows casually, allowing it to easily
cut its way in.
When Ya Na Liu Si realizes the situation seems off, it is already deep within the encirclement.
Jiang Chen thinks to himself that dealing with the Dragon Race seems somewhat simpler than dealing with Demons.
These guys' minds really seem not very sharp.
"Strong Soldier" skill's duration is limited, with only a brief 15 seconds left.
Jiang Chen knows he cannot delay any longer; he must resolve the battle promptly.
The remaining Skeleton Berserkers, those who have not yet unleashed their skills, now charge at Ya Na Liu Si like a raging storm, releasing all their final skills without reservation.
Some skills directly target the newly arrived Ya Na Liu Si, while at the same time the Skeleton Great Mage and Skeleton Archer focus fire on it.
Without the iron‑winged lizard to share the damage, Ya Na Liu Si is instantly severely wounded.
"I can't go on, I really can't hold out!" Ya Na Liu Si shouts in terror.
Ya Lei Ge Si furrows his brows and angrily says, "Useless one, we will simultaneously erupt our ancestral Bloodline and charge out. You go first!"
Ya Na Liu Si looks at it hesitantly, full of unwillingness. It had already consecutively erupted its ancestral Bloodline twice in recent days; forcing another eruption might damage its foundation.
But Ya Lei Ge Si's command is something it has never dared to disobey.
Years of habit have left it with no choice but to obey helplessly.
A resonant dragon roar shakes the heavens, and the ethereal image of a divine dragon suddenly appears, shoving aside all the besieging Skeleton Berserkers.
The two seize the opportunity to flee outward. Ya Lei Ge Si turns back and roars, "Consider yourself lucky this time; next time I'll kill you!"
Jiang Chen shakes his head coldly: "There will be no next time."
Having learned from Ya Na Liu Si's escape last time, he
could possibly repeat the same mistake.
Jiang Chen has long prepared the divine blood of the deadly toxin god.
The deadly toxin lich responded and emerged, its familiar green glow flashing again.
Ya Na Liu Si's complexion changes abruptly: "Bad, this poison is too strong!"
Ya Lei Ge Si also realizes something; it knows how terrifying the deadly toxin at the Secret Realm's entrance and exit can be.
It no longer hesitates, deciding to erupt the ancestral Bloodline together with Ya Na Liu Si.
Ya Lei Ge Si's Bloodline grows stronger, the ethereal image of the divine dragon becomes more solid, and it again scatters the besieging Skeletons.
The two sprint swiftly toward the distance.
Their speed is fast, but the deadly toxin lich's speed is faster.
A green beam slices through the sky, instantly striking the two.
Silently, the poison begins to spread.
But at that moment, a Crystal Talisman suddenly jumps out from Ya Lei Ge Si's body, emitting a resonant dragon roar, then exploding in the air.
A flash of golden light appears, enveloping the two and temporarily blocking the poison's erosion.
Immediately, a Space-time Portal slowly opens before them. A massive dragon claw reaches out from the portal, firmly grabs the two, and drags them into the portal.
However, the iron‑winged lizard does not leave with them. It has unfortunately been contaminated by the poison and now howls in painful agony within the toxin.
After the massive hand of the Space-time Portal snatches the two brothers away, the portal does not vanish immediately.
Behind, a gigantic eye suddenly appears, accompanied by a heart‑pounding authoritative voice: "Human Race, you dare to provoke our majesty, seeking death!"
That sky‑blocking massive hand reaches out from the void again, pointing directly at Jiang Chen, intending a one‑hit kill.
Between the heavens, a massive dragon claw materializes out of thin air, as if it could tear the sky, spanning
thousands of meters, and it slams down fiercely toward Jiang Chen.
Terrifying power sweeps in like a raging wind and massive wave; Jiang Chen instantly feels unprecedented pressure, as if an invisible force has locked him tightly.
The power of this palm can even be compared to the Demon Emperor's single finger; Jiang Chen is shocked.
He immediately realizes that the owner of this massive hand must be the pinnacle of the Dragon Race — Long Huang.
Long Huang not only rescued the two brothers, Ya Lei Ge Si and Jiang Chen, but also intends to personally strike and kill him.
Facing such a dire situation, Jiang Chen has only two options: either fight with all his might, or teleport away immediately.
He can use the Abyss Teleport Stone to go to the Abyss World, or activate Antares's Dragon Pearl to return to Upper Space, and can even directly use the seal of the Divine Dragon Ancient City to instantly return to the Divine Dragon Ancient City. But whichever choice he makes, it means he must evade this strike.
However, a strong impulse surged in Jiang Chen's heart.
He wanted to try, to try how great the gap between him and Long Huang truly was.
Perhaps this is the inevitable path for him to become a true strong one.
Once this thought took root, it spread wildly in Jiang Chen's mind.
He felt his blood boiling, his whole body filled with a desire for battle.
Since his Job Change, battles that could excite Jiang Chen so much, that he so yearned for, have been truly few.
Even when facing Angel Holy Spirit and the Flaming Demon King, he kept calm and rational.
But now, facing Long Huang, a Half-step Super God strongman, Jiang Chen felt unprecedented excitement and thrill.
The Undead Legion gathered around Jiang Chen, forming a defensive line with their bodies, swearing to protect their master unto death.
At this moment, "
the "Strong Soldier" skill had only 5 seconds left; during these 5 seconds, the Undead Legion's attributes would increase by 200%, reaching an unprecedented peak state.
The Skeleton Great Mage and the Divine Archer had already launched attacks; countless spells and arrows flew toward the massive dragon claw.
And the 33 Lich Generals tightly guarded Jiang Chen's back, using their bodies to build an indestructible defensive line for him.
Jiang Chen tightly grasped a crystal in his hand, a source of power he had never used before.
When the crystal appeared in his hand, the whole sky changed color; amid flashing lightning and thunder, countless silver serpents seemed to dance in the air, illuminating the Secret Realm as if it were daylight.
This crystal was the "Law God Crystal (Electric)", a Mythological Class material that contained the power of the Electric Element law.
Jiang Chen did not know how strong the Lich summoned with this God Crystal would be, but he knew it would be his greatest trump card against Long Huang's strike.
He took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with steadfast light.
No matter the outcome, he would give his all in battle, to experience this never‑before felt stimulation and passion.
Apart from detonating the poisonous God corpse's power, this was the strongest method Jiang Chen could currently employ.
Long Huang's sky‑covering massive palm seemed to ignore all obstacles, charging straight into the Undead Legion.
The Skeleton Berserkers at the forefront burst apart under the terrifying force of the massive palm, turning to powder.
Jiang Chen had long anticipated this; he knew Long Huang's palm was too powerful, even a full‑talent connection would struggle to fully resist.
Under the crushing palm, Jiang Chen felt a
previously unseen force, seemingly a law power that transcended the mundane and towered over all beings.
"This… could this be the power of the law?" Jiang Chen thought, secretly shocked; though he could not be certain, he had some conjecture.
At that moment, amid a flash of lightning and thunder, a figure over two meters tall suddenly appeared before Jiang Chen, its whole body enveloped by dense lightning.
It was an Elemental Lich, its aura extremely chaotic, as if it could explode at any moment.
With its arrival, a terrifying purple‑hued lightning descended from the sky, striking heavily upon Long Huang's massive palm.
The massive palm, under the lightning's bombardment, briefly paused, and its aura weakened considerably.
Simultaneously, the lightning Aura around the Undead Legion's feet began to change, shifting from silver to deep purple; denser lightning continuously struck the palm, further sapping its strength.
Yet, despite the lightning Lich and the Undead Legion's strenuous resistance, the palm's power remained strong enough to instantly kill ordinary Skeletons.
Watching the Undead warriors turn to dust under the palm, Jiang Chen felt a surge of tragic grandeur.
Then, that wildly chaotic thunder‑lightning Lich suddenly traced a bolt of electricity across the air, as if teleporting, and appeared directly before the Space-time Portal.
It ignored the toxic gas surrounding the portal and plunged straight in.
In Jiang Chen's spirit world, the thunder‑lightning Lich instantly traversed to a distant location.
Immediately after, a deafening Explosion rang out; the thunder‑lightning Lich self‑detonated at the other end of the Space-time Portal!
Jiang Chen only felt his
spirit world seemed to flash as well, and a voice full of anger and surprise came from the Space-time Portal.
Though Jiang Chen could not witness the scene there with his own eyes, he could imagine how massive the blast's power truly was.
The aura the thunder‑lightning Lich had previously exuded already far exceeded that of an ordinary Divine-level Strongman.
Jiang Chen even thought its strength might surpass Li Xueru and Hong Jishi.
The powerful lightning force traveled back through the Space-time Portal; the surrounding toxic gas rapidly dissipated under the lightning's bombardment.
The Space-time Portal itself also suffered a strong shock, beginning to warp and deform, eventually closing completely.
Lightning's power naturally counteracts the poisonous God's toxic gas, showing its great strength.
With the portal's closure, Long Huang's terrifying palm lost its subsequent source of power.
Though it remained immensely strong, it was already much weaker than before, and continued to weaken.
The warriors of the Undead Legion sacrificed themselves, continuously draining the palm's power through self‑sacrifice.
Finally, after the huge cost of tens of thousands of Skeleton lives, the now‑powerless Long Huang palm finally began to dissipate.
"So strong!" Jiang Chen clenched his fist, his eyes flashing with steadfast light. He really had blocked Long Huang's earth‑shaking strike!
