Dragon Blooded War God

Chapter 620: Underground Space



Both Long Chens were adventurous while Long Yue was a determined person.

Using Sight, Long Chen saw that the stone scorpions lacked souls. They don’t have souls? What are they, then?

The three of them watched the stone scorpions sink into the ground. The ground was like their home. Once they burrowed, the ground returned back to normal as if nothing had happened.

The three of them had to dig down into the earth to chase after the scorpions, so they activated their powerful dragon forms. Due to being Earthly Martial Realm cultivators, their strength came from the earth, so their digging speed matched the stone scorpions’.

Long Yue and the youth realized that Long Chen’s Dragon Soul Transformation was different from theirs. Long Chen’s Dragon Soul Transformation gave him darker-colored scales that were more evenly distributed. His bone spikes were also much stronger than those of the siblings.

The Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon and the Red Dragon were both red, but there was a large gap between the strongest and weakest dragon.

“Are you sure you’re from our family? Why is your Dragon Soul Transformation much stronger than ours?” the youth asked.

Long Chen shook his head and smiled. “I don’t know. I was like this when I first learned the Dragon Soul Transformation. Your sister said that I might be from a branch of your family. Let’s continue chasing after the stone scorpions. We can’t let them detect us.”

He didn’t want them to know about his Dragon Soul Transformation, so he changed the subject.

The three of them dug silently. Their bodies and claws were harder than the gray earth, so it was easy enough to tunnel through it.

But the deeper they dug, the stronger the pressure became. The pressure was becoming unbearable, but the stone scorpions still continued to go deeper. Not knowing when they would reach their destination, Long Yue was the first to give up. “Let’s stop chasing them. If we continue digging downwards, we might not be able to escape if there’s danger. Let’s go back now.”

The youth nodded.

Just then, Long Chen said, “Wait, they disappeared. What a strange space …”

Long Yue really wanted to leave, but she had no choice but to continue digging when she heard Long Chen say that. Long Chen had defeated the Martial Emperor Yang Ningfeng and was the strongest of the three, so she had no qualms with letting him lead them.

Long Chen dug towards where the stone scorpions had disappeared. Right before they arrived at the spot, Long Chen felt his claws breaking into empty space. He stopped immediately. What is this?

He reached out and felt his arm reach out of the ground. Long Chen realized that they were just outside of an empty space deep underground.

How big is the space in front of us?

Long Chen was fearless because he had the strength to back it up. “There’s something strange up ahead. Let me enter first and I will let you know if there’s any danger.”

Since he had suggested it, he was the one who entered the strange space first. He tunneled forward and entered the empty space. Much to his surprise, he found that he was high up in the air when he broke through. He quickly suspended his body in the air and slowly floated downwards. Thankfully, he still remembered how to fly.

He looked down, and what he saw was shocking.

It was a massive cavern, one so big that he couldn’t see the other end of it. The only thing he saw was the large amount of stones on the ground. The stones were the same color as the stone scorpions. Long Chen suspected that the stones on the ground were the scorpions themselves.

The cave was their nest. When the stone scorpions came here, their bodies were dismantled and turned back to normal stones.

But it was just Long Chen’s guess.

The bottom of the cavern was filled with stones. Long Chen looked up and saw a membrane of black light holding up the earth to form the cavern. The light rippled just like the water in a lake and looked beautiful.

Long Chen had tunneled through the layer of light just now. It appeared that the light only kept the dirt out while allowing other things to enter.

Just then, the black light shimmered behind Long Chen. Long Yue and the youth came through. They were worried that Long Chen was in danger, so they entered without waiting for Long Chen to give them a clear signal.

The two of them were shocked too when they saw what was in the cavern.

“This is a massive cavern … But where are the stone scorpions?” Long Yue was intrigued.

Long Chen pointed at the blanket of stones underneath them. “Those should be the stone scorpions.”

“Are you saying …” Long Yue was surprised.

The gray-shirted youth pointed in a direction and said, “Wait, look over there. There’s a massive stone there in the middle.”

They looked at what he was pointing at. It was a massive boulder surrounded by fragmented stones in the middle of the cavern. The boulder was completely gray and appeared to be made of the same type of stone as the stone scorpions. It was smooth with a soft light glowing on its surface. The boulder was roughly twenty meters in diameter.

“I think that boulder is the reason why this place is so strange.” Long Chen then waved his hands and gestured for them to check the boulder. “Since we are here, might as well check what it is.”

He made his way towards the boulder.

Nothing happened when they started approaching it.

But Long Chen suddenly sensed danger when they were close. He stopped and asked them to retreat. They did so, only to find that a black light had appeared underneath them. Several black runes lit up, then the stones quickly converged, forming several stone scorpions in front of them.

The black runes were shimmering on the carapaces of the scorpions.

“The stone scorpions are really made out of inanimate rocks!” The youth was shocked.

The thousands of stone scorpions that had chased after them for five days were scarier, but there were only a few dozen of them right now, so they weren’t afraid. Most of the stones on the ground remained in place.

“I think the scorpions are out of energy after chasing after us for five days. Maybe that’s why only a few dozen are moving right now. Let’s deal with them first.”

There was no reason for them to be afraid if Long Chen was right.

It would be easy for them to deal with this number of scorpions.

Long Chen suddenly appeared in front of one of them. The scorpion used its massive pincer to punch Long Chen.

“Willow Step.” Long Chen evaded the pincer easily with the technique. The scorpion couldn’t touch him at all.

The stone scorpion suddenly swung its tail at Long Chen. The tail was much faster and stronger than its pincers.

Its tail whistled through the air.

Long Chen used Willow Step to evade it too.

“The Huangfu’s family Willow Step?” Both Long Yue and the youth were shocked to see Long Chen using Willow Step. How did Long Chen obtain it and when did he find the time to cultivate it?

Despite only being apart for a short time, Long Chen had not only advanced to the next stage, he had also learned two intermediate King-tier martial techniques!

Long Yue was surprised by Long Chen’s improvement.

The youth was also impressed by Long Chen’s strength. At first, he felt superior to Long Chen since he was at the Third Earthly Martial Stage at such a young age, two years younger than Zhao Danchen. But his confidence was bruised when he learned of Long Chen’s accomplishments.

“What a monster.” The youth sighed.

Because Long Chen had approached them first, the stone scorpions designated him as the main threat and surrounded him. The attacks came relentlessly. The stone scorpions were fast and strong, but Willow Step allowed him to avoid the attacks with ease. He didn’t even need to attack them.

Whenever an attack was going to hit him, he would stand in front of one of the stone scorpions and use Willow Step to dodge it. The attack would then hit another stone scorpion.
