Dragon-Blooded War God

An ancient tomb appeared in the starry sky in front of Long Chen and Feng Zhilin. It was huge, and despite being just a tomb, it was as lavishly built as a palace. Countless years should have passed since its erection, but compared to the Iron Cities outside, it was luxurious and beautiful, as if it was only recently built!

The tomb had seven bright dots of starlight!

At this point, Long Chen could confirm that this was the tomb of the Seven Star Lord, who was one of the Seven Lords.

An immense aura radiated from the tomb and flew at Long Chen and Feng Zhilin’s faces. Long Chen was in awe. Just the aura of this elder was enough to make him respect him.

The star plates brought Long Chen and Feng Zhilin closer and closer to the ancient tomb while they grew more anxious. Not only did this mean that they would likely face the Seven Star Lord’s test soon, but they would also have to worry about their opponent ambushing them!

Very soon, only the gigantic starry tomb remained in Long Chen’s field of vision. A large, blue platform extended from the entrance. The two star plates were heading toward the platform at the same time.

The other end of the platform was an ancient but grand door.

Long Chen and Feng Zhilin were anxious. While they studied the starry tomb, they also took nervous glances at each other to prevent the other person from ambushing them.

To Feng Zhilin, receiving the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance was the most important task. Killing Long Chen to avenge Aunt Snow was just the method for her to get the inheritance.

The starplates were almost touching the blue platform now. Long Chen and Feng Zhilin sprang to action in unison. Both of them ran onto the blue platform, then towards the door at the center of the tomb, at the same time!

They had only just begun, but the gap between their abilities was soon evident. Although Feng Zhilin was injured, she had a great advantage in cultivation level and essence. She surpassed Long Chen instantly to rush to the front of the tomb’s bronze door. But very soon, she was left stunned. This bronze door was very heavy and tightly shut. Breaking through it was going to be difficult with her strength.

She slammed her palm onto the door, but nothing happened. It did not even shake; the dust on it did not even fall. But Feng Zhilin fell two steps back in pain. It was clear just how solid this door was.

“What a hard door!” cried Feng Zhilin in surprise after taking two steps back. If she was in her peak state, she could probably try to hit it, but now she could not. Feng Zhilin recalled that ancient tombs of this level usually could not be opened by brute force. The only way was usually through wit and luck.

Long Chen finally arrived and stood behind her. He carefully studied the large, bronze door and did not fight Feng Zhilin. Even at a moment like this, his expression remained calm and pure, as if he was not aware of his situation.

The temptation of the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance was enough to drive anyone in the Ten Thousand Nations Territory mad!

Feng Zhilin turned around and looked at him coldly. She warned, “If you take one more step, I’ll kill you even if it means risking my life!”

She had not attacked him because she was afraid of worsening her injuries!

Receiving the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance was not an easy process. First, a cultivator had to win one of the seven slots out of the many people outside. That was only the first test. Then all seven candidates would kill each other on this planet while searching for the way to this starry tomb!

It would normally be difficult for people to think that the path to the inheritance would be hidden underground.

Long Chen had thought of it before Feng Zhilin and the rest, but he was afraid of striking the planet as it would cause a huge commotion.

The third test was this bronze door.

It looked simple. He looked up and noticed that it gave off immense pressure. There seemed to be an endless starry sky contained within it.

The door looked like it was made of normal bronze, but in reality, he did not know what it was made of, as it was not metal. The bronze door had nothing on it other than seven metal pieces arranged irregularly. The seven semicircular metal pieces were stuck strangely to the door like magnets.

Feng Zhilin also noticed the seven semicircular pieces. She eyed Long Chen cautiously while she tried to touch them. Indeed, she realized that she could not lift the heavy pieces at all, but they could slide on the door!

Could these seven metal pieces relate to the seven stars represented by the Seven Star Lord? Feng Zhilin furrowed her brows. Based on that, the door would likely open once the metal pieces were arranged according to the constellation. However, she did not know how the seven stars were arranged in the sky. Their paths were almost always changing, so how would she know how they were arranged?

After some thought, Feng Zhilin randomly arranged them several times but to no avail. She finally looked at Long Chen and asked, “Do you know how the Seven Star Constellation is arranged in the sky?”

She was only asking casually, but to her surprise, Long Chen nodded.

Feng Zhilin hesitated for a while, then her gaze darkened. She had already made her decision. Based on what had happened earlier, Long Chen was no match for her. The moment he helped her open this door, she would risk her injuries to kill him!

With that thought, she took a few steps back and said to Long Chen, “You do it, then. Don’t pull any of your tricks.”

In reality, she was preparing her own tricks.

Long Chen did not actually know how the seven stars were arranged, but Little Cat did, and he said to Long Chen, “Aren’t you afraid she’ll kill you the moment you open the door? Although she’s injured, there’s still a substantial gap between you.”

Long Chen smirked to himself and said, “Don’t worry. I have an idea. Just follow my instructions.”

Little Cat did not say anymore, knowing Long Chen often had many tricks up his sleeve and would not be hurt by Feng Zhilin. So, Little Cat was assured enough to tell him the arrangement of the Seven Star Constellation in the sky today. Long Chen followed Little Cat’s instructions and moved the first metal piece to the first position. The metal piece suddenly lit up with a blue glow. From afar, it looked like a star had been attached to the bronze door.

When Feng Zhilin saw the metal piece light up, her eyes lit up too.

“Did you think you could just try all the positions until all the metal pieces lit up?” The moment this thought popped into her mind, Long Chen turned around and said her thoughts out loud.

Feng Zhilin chuckled and said, “You’re using a thief’s mentality to gauge a gentleman.”

“And you’re a gentleman?” Long Chen glanced at her. She was Wu Guangyu’s woman. Although they were not married yet, this beautiful body would belong to him one day.

“You only have one chance to move every piece. If you make a mistake, everything will be for nothing. If you don’t believe me, you can try. Then no one will get a chance to get the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance at all!” warned Long Chen.

Then he placed the second metal piece to its position based on Little Cat’s instructions, and it lit up too. He did the same for the third piece, and then the others. On the seventh piece, Long Chen did not move. He turned around and looked at the anxious Feng Zhilin without fear. “The moment the seventh piece lands, the whole constellation will be completed and the bronze door will open. The Seven Star Lord’s inheritance will also appear. However, only I know where the last piece should be placed. I’m guessing that someone’s going to attack the moment I lose my value, right?”

Feng Zhilin froze. He had exposed her plan.

Long Chen knew that she was waiting to kill him the moment he opened the door, then rush inside to get the inheritance.

“If that is the case, you can try placing the last piece on your own, or we’re going to be here forever. I can stay for a long time. What about you?” Long Chen did not touch the seventh piece. He looked at her mildly.

“What do you plan to do, then?” Feng Zhilin asked coldly.

She did not fear him, as she could tell that he was also at his limit. She was merely worried that he would pull some bizarre trick again.

“Take twenty steps back, then I will place the last piece.” He looked up, and their eyes met. The tension of violence in the air was thick.

The Seven Star Lord is one of the Seven Lords. It’s probably not on a first-come-first-served basis. After entering, we will likely need to compare our abilities too. Only this brat can open the bronze door. I’ll let him live a bit longer. Once we enter and fight over the treasure, I can kill him then too. He wouldn’t be able to escape from this tomb even if he had wings!

After these thoughts, Feng Zhilin finally made her decision. She nodded and moved twenty meters away. Although she was heavily injured, she could still easily travel this distance. She waited for Long Chen to open the bronze door. It was all up to luck now.
