Chapter 5248 Sullen Raging Flame Horned Salamander
Flames burst from the salamander's body as bone spikes protruded from its spine, releasing a violent aura. It stood ready to fight against Gold Rhino, clearly recognizing it as the greatest threat. Long Chen, meanwhile, was left in shock when he saw the salamander’s missing rear leg.
The wound, although old, was now bleeding again due to the salamander’s overexertion. A seven-colored divine radiance emitted from the wound, and Long Chen instantly recognized it to be something left behind by the power of seven-color Supreme Blood.
“Dad!” Long Chen’s heart shook. Although the aura had faded to the point of being nearly undetectable, Long Chen knew it belonged to his father, Long Zhantian.
He hadn’t expected his father to have passed through this part of the Endless Desolation, let alone to have fought this two-vein Emperor salamander and severed one of its legs.
Dad really is strong! Long Chen thought, amazed. Among all the experts he had encountered, only his father seemed capable of standing on equal footing with the Sovereigns from the Martial Heaven Continent.
Reflecting on the battle at the pathway to the ninth heaven, where his father had only revealed a fraction of his power to wound a Heaven Saint, Long Chen realized that Long Zhantian must have been hiding his true strength for some time. The power required to sever the salamander’s leg wasn’t something that could have developed in the brief time since that battle.
What an acting skill! Dad really acted like a pig to eat tigers! Looking at the bleeding wound, Long Chen felt immense reverence for his father.
His father had endured for so many years and was now soaring into the heavens. Nothing in this world could stop his light. He must have hidden his power when he went to the Long clan, perhaps if the Long clan had really fought against him, he would have destroyed the entire Long clan with a wave of his hand.
As the Ten Thousand Dragon Nests gathered, the Raging Flame Horned Salamander grew increasingly nervous. It repeatedly roared, looking like it might attack them at any moment.
“Boss, should we deal with it?” asked Guo Ran and the others, looking at Long Chen with anticipation.
“Let the Ten Thousand Dragon Nests encircle it. Dragonblood Legion, attack!” commanded Long Chen.
If this many Ten Thousand Dragon Nests attacked at once, the salamander would instantly be obliterated.
“Kill!” The Dragonblood warriors needed no further prompting. Gu Yang was the first to strike, hurling his spear at the salamander with all his might.
The salamander completely ignored Gu Tang and simply let its flame horn withstand his attack. In its eyes, the only existence here that could threaten its life was Gold Rhino.
Unfortunately, the salamander didn’t know that Gu Yang was holding a new spear covered in black marks—a newly forged divine weapon from Guo Ran.
Because Gu Yang had no other suitable weapon, Guo Ran temporarily gave him this rough draft. Though still an unfinished product, due to it having the essence of the Purgatory Fiend Spears merged into it, its weight and power were shocking.
BOOM!
The salamander was caught off guard by Gu Yang’s immense power. Its massive body was sent tumbling across the ground, leaving deep fissures in the earth as it rolled.
The impact of Gu Yang’s attack shocked the Human Emperors of the dragon race. They had seen him fight before, but never with such an overwhelming power. Was he hiding his power before?
In truth, Gu Yang simply didn’t have a decent weapon back then. As a power-type fighter, without a strong weapon, he couldn’t effectively unleash his full power.
Against a two-vein Emperor devil beast, and with Long Chen personally presiding over this battle, Gu Yang naturally didn’t hold back and unleashed all his power in this attack.
However, Gu Yang paid the price for his bold attack. His hand bled from the recoil, and he nearly spat blood. The Raging Flame Horned Salamander was incredibly tough, even in its weakened state.
At this moment, Bai Shishi, Bai Xiaole, Li Qi, Song Mingyuan, Guo Ran, and the others joined the fray. A two-vein Human Emperor’s aura instinctively drew out the fear in their hearts.
As expected, they had to face this kind of fear head-on; this kind of opportunity couldn’t be passed. After a bit, the Dragonblood warriors also joined in.
Yue Zifeng and Xia Chen, however, refrained from participating. Yue Zifeng didn’t need this kind of training, and Xia Chen was conserving his stock of talismans for future battles.
The salamander tried to retaliate but was continuously pushed back by the relentless assault of the Dragonblood Legion. After a bit, it opened its mouth, and a massive flame sphere started to form—a sign that it was about to unleash its innate divine ability.
Just as Long Chen prepared to intervene, something unexpected happened. Space quivered, and the salamander spun in the air, its head now facing the ground. Instead of being aimed at the Dragonblood Legion, the flame sphere blasted into the earth.
BOOM!
The salamander was sent tumbling through the air by its own attack, leaving Long Chen and the others stunned by the bizarre turn of events.
“Xiaole, great job!” shouted Guo Ran, realizing it was Bai Xiaole’s spatial manipulation that had caused the salamander’s misfire.
The little fox on Bai Xiaole’s shoulder puffed up with pride, exclaiming, "What about me? Without my help, he couldn’t have done it!"
“Of course! Little Nine, you did even better!” Guo Ran laughed. Xiaole was already super childish, but it seemed that Little Nine could surpass him in this regard.
Gu Yang and the others continued their relentless assault, but they carefully avoided hitting the salamander’s vital points. This was a rare opportunity for training, and they intended to make the most of it.
After hours of intense combat, the salamander’s strength finally waned. Its wounded leg kept bleeding, and it grew weaker with each passing moment. As it collapsed in exhaustion, the Dragonblood warriors withdrew, allowing Bai Yingxue and the rest of the juniors of the dragon race to gain some experience. Without Long Chen, they wouldn’t have a chance to train against a devil beast on this level.
At first, they were almost suffocated by the pressure of a two-vein Human Emperor, but with the Dragonblood warriors guiding them, they gradually got accustomed to it.
Half a day later, the salamander was completely exhausted and collapsed on the ground. At this point, Long Chen stepped forward, unsheathing Evilmoon. With a swift motion, he plunged the blade into the salamander’s head.
“Soulsearch!” Long Chen whispered, forming a seal with one hand as he prepared to extract the beast’s memories with his Spiritual Strength.
