One of them, the skinny one wearing black clothes, stopped Long Chen. “Brat, move away. Don’t waste our time! I will kill you.”
The other cultivator sighed as he rested a bit. He planned to wait for the other cultivator to kill Long Chen before resuming their fight.
Killing someone at the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage was so easy that no one batted an eye.
“Is he stupid? We didn’t even dare to enter the cave while the two were fighting and yet he did. Isn’t he just looking to die?”
Everyone discussed and waited for Long Chen’s reaction.
But Long Chen gave them his answer without speaking. He transformed into his half-dragon form that allowed him to fight those above his stage.
Killing those that were stages above him was one of Long Chen’s talents acquired from the Inherited Blood Essence. He had no issue killing those at the same stage as him; regular Fifth Earthly Martial Stage cultivators would die from a single strike from him.
After transforming, Long Chen’s body was covered in blood-red scales, and his essence turned blood-red too.
His essence was increased by ten times, which meant his strength was roughly at the Sixth Earthly Martial Stage now.
Everyone was shocked. This was the Metal District, the territory in which the Wind clan and Gold clan were fighting to establish their dominance. A month ago, a youth called Long Chen did the unthinkable in Black Gold City. Long Chen was famous for two things. One, attacking the young master of the Divine clan and managing to escape unscathed.Two, despite only being at the Fourth Earthly Martial Stage, he had managed to steal the Martial God Tombstone from under the Wind clan’s nose and even escaped Feng Zhilin’s pursuit.
Long Chen had not only offended the Divine clan, but also the Gold clan and the Wind clan. Everyone from the Gold clan and the Wind clan was looking for him. Even though the Ancient Graveyard was huge, information was relayed quickly. Long Chen’s deeds and appearance had long since been spread around, especially about his transformed look!
Because his transformed appearance was so unique, almost everyone recognized him.
Their eyes shone with greed.
Long Chen’s appearance also meant the appearance of the Martial God Tombstone.
It was a treasure that could increase a person’s cultivation speed by tenfold!
Many of them had stagnated at their cultivation levels without an iota of improvement for tens of years. The Martial God Tombstone was the key for them to become stronger!
Everyone’s hearts started beating rapidly when they saw Long Chen. Those that don’t recognize him also had a feeling that something was happening based on everyone’s reaction.
“Long Chen! He’s Long Chen!” someone shouted, then everyone burst into action.
The one closest to Long Chen, the Seventh Earthly Martial Stage cultivator with the black shirt, tried to kill Long Chen when he transformed.
To that cultivator, Long Chen was now an even more attractive treasure than the cave, especially because he thought Long Chen was too weak to safekeep the treasure!
Long Chen still hadn't realized that this place was different from his world. This was the Ancient Graveyard, a place where everyone was crazy enough to enter for the sake of treasure. No matter where he went, he would be hunted down by the others because he was a walking treasure chest!
The treasures of the Ancient Graveyard could give cultivators a chance to become stronger once more. They could also get resources to set up a clan and control the world when they got out.
The Ancient Graveyard was a place of bloodshed!
Long Chen understood what this meant and stopped being naive.
The one attacking him first was the Seventh Earthly Martial Stage cultivator. After discovering Long Chen’s identity, he charged immediately. The second Seventh Earthly Martial Stage cultivator moved next. Long Chen realized he had underestimated their greed when he saw those at the Sixth Earthly Martial Stage also risking their lives to attack him.
His gaze became cold.
“You want to die?” Long Chen would never show no mercy to those who wanted to kill him. On the other hand, he would be kind to those that were kind to him. Because Shao Yu was kind to Long Chen and explained a bit about the Ancient Graveyard, Long Chen had saved him twice!
But now these cultivators wanted to kill him!
Long Chen had no reason to show mercy.
The cultivator in black was the first one who approached Long Chen. He wanted to kill Long Chen swiftly, place the corpse into his bag, and run. It would be amazing if his plan worked, but what surprised him was Long Chen’s reaction.
With a whoosh, Long Chen extended his right arm.
Suddenly, the golden metallic sand trembled under him. A flow of golden Qi surged into Long Chen’s palm and formed a whirlpool. The Golden Emperor Seal lit up. The light blinded everyone, making them squint.
“What is that?” The man in black was shocked. Long Chen’s aura far exceeded his expectations—it was sharp like a blade. Everyone felt their skin prickling like numerous needles were poking into them. The pain made them stop.
A blinding light came from Long Chen’s body and turned him as bright as the sun.
“Golden Emperor…”
Long Chen swiftly flipped his palm, and a massive golden seal appeared. The seal was like a massive block of metal that Long Chen could control freely. “...Veiled Heaven Seal!”
Boom!
The Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal flew up high into the air and covered the sky. The golden light completely filled the heavens!
Everyone was shocked, but the horrific pressure coming from the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal made their knees tremble, threatening to bend. Even the cultivator in black was suppressed by the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal!
“Impossible!”
Just then, under Long Chen’s control, the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal pressed down like a massive golden mountain. The entire force of the seal was focused on the cultivator in black while the aftershocks were aimed at the remaining cultivators.
“Heavenly Dominant Fist!” the man shouted. It was his strongest technique, but to his dismay, it was not on the same level as Long Chen’s attack. The Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal destroyed the technique and hit him squarely in the chest.
Boom!
The Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal completely flattened the surrounding metal spikes when it landed! The seal had not only reduced the cultivator in black into ground meat, the other cultivators were killed too!
But the Martial God Tombstone’s allure was too strong. The other cultivators still charged after Long Chen as if they had abandoned their lives!
To think that the Ancient Graveyard is such a bloodthirsty place! I have no choice but to become the king of slaughter here. I won’t kill people unprovoked, but I will kill those that try to kill me first! Now that they know my identity, I have to kill all of them, or they will spread the news of me appearing here!
Long Chen didn’t want the Wind clan and Gold clan to station their troops near the entrance to capture him after he left the cave. It would be a death sentence for him.
He had no choice but to do this!
“Blood Devouring Domain!” While everyone was still taken aback by Long Chen’s strength, he used the Blood Devouring Domain and enveloped everyone in it. Those inside, including the remaining Seventh Earthly Martial Stage cultivator, were horrified by the strength of the Blood Devouring Domain.
“What is this?!” They were surprised by the strange suction force acting on them, and their greed disappeared. They realized that the youth in front of them had done the unthinkable, including stealing the Martial God Tombstone. How could anyone like that be ordinary?
The Blood Devouring Domain disorientated them. They couldn’t see anything inside of it, so they moved around aimlessly.
The sole remaining Seventh Earthly Martial Stage cultivator felt fear after seeing his competitor killed in one blow. His greed spurred him forward, but his fear pulled him back. In the end, his fear won and he tried to escape. The Martial God Tombstone had lost its appeal to him. Unfortunately, a lot of the other cultivators were blocking his way, so it would be difficult for him to escape.
