Chapter 6181 Mission
With every spatial transportation, Long Chen caused a ruckus. After a while, he had no choice but to don a cloak and conceal his face.
Finally, he arrived in Heaven Maple Valley.
“Dad!” Long Chen exclaimed.
Long Chen immediately spotted his father, and the two were overjoyed to be reunited.
Long Chen was surprised to find that his father had already reached the very peak of the Divine Emperor realm—just one step away from becoming a Sovereign Lord. When he asked about his mother, he learned that she and the Lei branch had returned to Sovereign Mountain and went into seclusion.
In theory, Long Zhantian should have also gone into seclusion to make his breakthrough. But he knew that Luo Ningshuang was deeply concerned about the remaining members of the violet blood race. Hence, while she cultivated in seclusion, Long Zhantian took it upon himself to gather the scattered remnants of the violet blood race who were in grave danger.
Heaven Maple Valley was originally home to one branch of the violet blood race. Its territory was vast—more than enough to accommodate the rest of their kind.
Thankfully, Sovereign Mountain had sent people and resources to assist Long Zhantian. They had also built a transportation formation to connect the two locations.
As a result, Heaven Maple Valley had grown increasingly active. So far, over seventy scattered violet blood tribes had been gathered here. But according to Sovereign Mountain’s intelligence, this was only a small fraction. There were likely thousands of branches spread across the nine heavens.
Long Chen couldn’t help but gasp when he heard how many there were.
He finally understood Sovereign Mountain’s dilemma. They couldn’t possibly accept them all. With limited resources, they had to focus on nurturing only true heavenly geniuses.
Once those geniuses matured, Sovereign Mountain would be strong enough to deter enemies and safeguard the entire violet blood race.
But the present situation was grim. Sovereign Mountain’s former prestige had waned. In this new era, every major faction was watching them closely.𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
The violet blood race’s blood and soul essence were priceless treasures to many races. They were similar to the crystal cores and Neidans of devil beasts and the demon race.
The older generation was doing their best to restore their strength, while the younger generation focused on condensing Sovereign flames. They had no time to look after the scattered branches of the violet blood race.
Even Long Chen’s mother had no solution after learning of Sovereign Mountain’s limitations. She had to break through first because only then could she offer meaningful help.
Until then, this heavy burden fell to Long Zhantian. All he could do was use martial force to deter their enemies.
He had already slaughtered several factions that tried to obstruct the migration of the violet blood race. He showed no mercy, exterminating them to the last. That brought some temporary deterrence.
However, Long Zhantian was just one person, and his power was limited. His intimidation held sway only within Sovereign Emperor Heaven. Many violet blood branches were scattered beyond its borders. As crossing into other heavens was dangerous, he could do nothing for them.
“Dad, should I mobilize the Dragonblood Legion? We can spread out and protect them,” suggested Long Chen.
“No!” Long Zhantian immediately rejected that proposal.
He sternly said, “Chen-er, I know you care about the violet blood race, but you should focus on what’s most important. The fate of the violet blood race cannot compare to the fate of all the races of the nine heavens. I trust you’ve heard of the heaven region’s battlefield, right?”
Seeing his son nodding, Long Zhantian continued, “The heaven region’s battlefield will determine the future of the nine heavens. You and the Dragonblood Legion must focus on strengthening yourselves. You’ll be facing the enemies of the nine heavens. Furthermore, only Human Emperors can enter that battlefield.
“Many heavenly geniuses have reached the late stage of the Human Emperor realm. Your realm is too low—you can’t waste any more time. The heaven region’s battlefield is your most important target, so focus on raising your realm. Leave the violet blood race to me. Once your mother makes her breakthrough, she’ll come out and help. With us present, you can be entirely at ease.”
Hearing that, Long Chen nodded. The heaven region’s battlefield was truly the most important thing right now.
Even as they conversed, new members of the violet blood race continued to arrive. Long Zhantian immediately went to welcome them, and Long Chen didn’t disturb him further. He used the transportation formation and returned to Sovereign Mountain.
Once there, Mountain Lord Qingyu was alarmed to see that Long Chen was still a fourth Heavenstage Human Emperor. She almost locked him up at the peak of Sovereign Mountain to cultivate.
She said, “The fire is already at our heels, and you're still out strolling.”
His cultivation progress was simply too slow.
The Spirit Awakeners of Sovereign Mountain had already reached the late stage of the Human Emperor realm. Some had even advanced to the ninth Heavenstage. By comparison, Long Chen’s fourth Heavenstage made her nearly explode.
In truth, based on his past progress, Long Chen’s current pace was already among his fastest. But the era had changed. The nine heavens had been restored, the spiritual qi was abundant, and the heavenly laws were complete. This was an era of erupting geniuses.
Seeing how anxious Mountain Lord Qingyu was, Long Chen hastily said that he was going into seclusion soon. But before that, he wanted Sovereign Mountain to get in contact with the Huayun Trading Company. He had some information for them.
After transmitting his full message, Long Chen directly left and went to the Heaven Dragon Law Domain.
On his way, explosive news spread across the nine heavens and ten lands via the Huayun Trading Company.
Long Chen had issued a challenge to the entire world.
He declared that he was a member of the violet blood race, and that anyone who dared to attack their migrating members would be considered the eternal enemies of the Dragonblood Legion.
This was the only thing Long Chen could do to help those migrating toward Heaven Maple Valley. Though the ten thousand races hated him, they also feared him—especially after he had once slaughtered so many of them.
In this aspect, Long Chen possessed greater influence than his father. After all, Long Chen was still young. As a Human Emperor, he was already comparable to a late-stage Sovereign Lord. His potential was limitless.
As long as Long Chen didn’t fall, no one could predict how far he could go. Now, anyone with the slightest brains would think twice before attacking the violet blood race. They had to consider how they would face Long Chen’s wrath.
Moreover, Long Chen was known for his ruthlessness and vengeance. Was it really worth making an enemy of someone like that?
Long Chen didn’t know whether his announcement would actually help. But he had to try. This was all he could do for now.
The rest was up to increasing his power as much as possible.
In Sovereign Mountain, he had learned an extremely shocking piece of news. All the Spirit Awakeners had condensed one hundred and fifty Sovereign flames. Two of them had broken through the two hundred Sovereign flame mark.
Other than the Spirit Awakeners, they had over ten more hundred-flame divine sprouts. As time passed, their numbers increased.
Sovereign Mountain had already gambled everything on the heaven region’s battlefield. They poured out their best resources in preparation.
If Sovereign Mountain was acting like this, then the other major factions of the world were definitely doing the same. This world was about to go crazy.
When Long Chen arrived at the Heaven Dragon Law Domain, dozens of the dragon race’s disciples immediately bowed to him. When Long Chen saw those disciples, he was stunned.
“Sovereign sprouts?”
Since when did the Heaven Dragon Law Domain become so extravagant that they had Sovereign sprouts watching the gate?
