Chapter 5369 Wind Domain Battlefield

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

The Wind God Sea Pavilion had essentially been entirely infiltrated and corrupted. Almost all the higher-ups were agents working for enemy factions. Long Chen had never seen such deep-rooted corruption before. If the Dragon Domain was in a similar state, that would be bad.

Feng Xinyue said, “The dragon race is constantly fighting among themselves, with each race prioritizing their interests. Not only do they have to fight off the attacks of the Heaven Devil race, but they also have to deal with the Brahma Pill Valley’s schemes. The dragon race is like a plate of sand unable to work together. If not for their individual power, they would have been destroyed long ago. If they could unify, as long as Lord Brahma doesn’t personally act, there are almost no factions that could threaten them. Their situation is dire.”

Long Chen instantly understood that the Dragon Domain here was no better than the one outside the Endless Desolation. Without the Primal Chaos Dragon Sovereign to lead them, the dragon race had become fragmented.

However, there was one key difference: here, the dragon race was constantly under attack, facing endless battles and the threat of annihilation at any moment.

“Senior, is there any way for me to get to the Dragon Domain?” asked Long Chen.

Searching for the violet blood race was too difficult, so it would be better for Long Chen to resolve the problem with the Dragon Domain first. Most importantly, the Dragon Sovereign had told him that its Emperor blood reverse scale was located there.

If Long Chen could obtain the Emperor blood reverse scale, he wouldn’t need to fear the Silver Hair Void Crusher. Thus, he put the matter of the violet blood race aside temporarily.

“If you wish to go to the Dragon Domain, there’s a good method. I was about to send you and Tang Wan-er to lead the Wind God Sea Pavilion’s disciples into the Wind Domain Battlefield. You can reach the Dragon Domain’s territory by going through the other side of the battlefield. That way, you can also avoid an attack from the Silver Hair Void Crusher,” said Feng Xinyue.

“What’s the Wind Domain Battlefield?” asked Long Chen.

Feng Xinyue explained, “Long ago, the Wind God’s experts left the human race’s territory to fight the foreign Heaven Devils from beyond the heavens. The Wind Domain Battlefield was the site of a massive conflict where humanity ultimately fought to the death against the devils, overwhelmed by the devils’ sheer numbers. The Wind God’s disciple, Feng Wuji, sacrificed his own life, using the Dao of Reincarnation to unleash a supreme curse art. When this curse activated, it destroyed the foreign devils’ souls.

“However, their wills persisted, and they turned into powerful devil corpses. Luckily, the devil corpses cannot leave the battlefield due to the effect of the curse. Every three thousand years, the curse flares up, reducing their power greatly, even putting the weaker ones into a slumber. This is the best time to hunt on the battlefield, which lasts about a month. Many factions send people there to search for treasures during this period. The battlefield contains countless divine weapons and the bones of Divine Emperor-level experts. They also left behind their own inheritances and treasures for the right person…”

“Divine Emperors!” Long Chen couldn’t help but let out a startled cry.

The strongest foe Long Chen had faced so far was the Silver Hair Void Crusher, a nine-vein Human Emperor. A Divine Emperor would be at least ten times stronger than him, and that was beyond Long Chen’s comprehension.

“There are divine weapons, legacies, and treasures scattered across the battlefield. Moreover, the cursed devils themselves are treasures. They come from beyond the heavens, so their devil blood, bones, and skin are priceless. Their remains can be used in medicinal pills, weapons, or armor. Do you know why the swords of the Wind God Sea Pavilion’s disciples are so much stronger than other weapons of the same tier?” asked Feng Xinyue.

Long Chen shook his head. The first weapon he saw from the Wind God Sea Pavilion was Qing Xi’s sword[1]. Long Chen knew that the material and craftsmanship were only average, but the sword itself was very strong.

Feng Xinyue explained, “Those swords have been soaked in devil blood. A single drop of wind devil essence blood can turn over a hundred ordinary weapons into wind-element divine weapons, forming wind runes all over the weapons.”

“That’s incredible!” Long Chen was amazed. A single drop of essence blood could turn a hundred ordinary weapons into wind-element divine weapons? It was simply unbelievable.

Feng Xinyue nodded and started to explain. “Different devils possess different kinds of energy. Because they aren’t from the nine heavens and ten lands, many of their energies are foreign to us. Because of that, in the great battle of the primal chaos era, the nine heavens and ten lands were torn asunder by the foreign Heaven Devils. The ten thousand races were forced to retreat over and over again, and even our strongest experts of that time took hideous losses.

“After all, the Heaven Devils knew our strengths, but we knew almost nothing about them. Although we’ve now studied them and uncovered some of their secrets, it’s only the tip of the iceberg. If we want more of their corpses to study, we need to go to places like the Wind Domain Battlefield. The Sovereign Emperor Heaven has countless such battlefields, but most are buried in the Endless Desolation. In the vast Heaven Essence World, there are only seven such battlefields, and six are controlled by other factions who allow only their own disciples and allies to enter.

“The Wind Domain Battlefield used to be private to the Wind God Sea Pavilion, as its main forces were the descendants of the Wind God. The curse was also cast by Feng Wuji, one of the Wind God’s disciples. However, due to its distance from the Pavilion, we couldn’t maintain control over it. Many sects backed by supreme factions started eyeing it, so under all the pressure, the Wind God Sea Pavilion was forced to open the battlefield to everyone.

“Whenever the Wind Domain Battlefield’s curse energy flared, the Wind God Sea Pavilion would welcome the chance. The Pavilion’s eight divine sons and daughters would lead their respective squads into the battlefield. But now, only Tang Wan-er remains, and the Pavilion only has one squad left. Once inside, the fighting will be fierce.

“The eight assistant pavilion masters, the three Divine Wind Elders, and the rest of the higher-ups all have enemy forces supporting them from behind the scenes. The reason we haven’t killed them yet is to avoid exposing the current situation, buying time for you two.”

Upon hearing this, Long Chen finally understood her strategy. Killing a few key figures wouldn’t be an issue, but wiping out all the corrupted higher-ups would alert their enemies, putting everything at risk. For now, it was better to keep those individuals alive, lulling their enemies into a false sense of security.

“Senior, then what do you think I should do?” asked Long Chen.

“In the Wind Domain Battlefield, kill all your enemies. The time has come. This battle will signal the revival of the Wind Domain line, showing the world that we are back!” Feng Xinyue declared.

A cold gleam flashed in her eyes, and her voice exuded an undeniable arrogance and dominance. She seemed to transform into an entirely different person.

Long Chen grinned, pounding his chest in response. “Alright! I may not excel at everything, but when it comes to killing enemies, I’m an expert!”
