Chapter 357 We're Going to Bring the Human Race's Heroes Home!

Zeus was enraged.

Therefore, he had to punish the human race.

What about the Demon Emperor?

He had previously told Lin Chen that the current situation required him to know when to stop.

Don't push Zeus too far!

But…

Lin Chen didn't listen.

On the central battlefield, using the Floating Land, Lin Chen severely humiliated the Divine Temple.

However, upon returning to the Southern God-Demon battlefield, Lin Chen did not stop.

Therefore, the Demon Emperor must have been somewhat displeased.

It could be said that Zeus's attack was actually launched with the Demon Emperor's tacit consent.

Although the Demon Emperor and Zeus were rivals.

Enemies.

But sometimes, they could also be in a collaborative state... Of course, the current Demon Emperor and Zeus weren't exactly collaborating, but rather had reached a consensus on giving the human race a lesson.

Zeus was the angered one, so he took action.

What about the Demon Emperor?

He wanted Lin Chen to learn a lesson, so he gave his tacit consent.

But…

As Lin Chen said, Zeus could have aimed at him directly.

What did it have to do with the human race?

Just because Lin Chen was the Human Emperor?

Just because Zeus and the Demon Emperor were the only two Rank 8 powerhouses in the universe?

Just because the human race was nothing but ants?

At this moment, Lin Chen's heart was filled with soaring rage.

Thump, thump!

His heart, with each beat, pulsed twice in rapid succession.

"Zeus, remember this, I am the Dragon Yan Dao, guardian deity of the human race… My human race has never feared sacrifice! As long as I am here, no one can harm the human race… Even if I fall, there will be a second Dragon Yan Dao, a third Dragon Yan Dao, ten thousand, a hundred million Dragon Yan Daos standing before you. Can you kill them all?"

Dragon Yan Dao roared!

His roar gradually restored clarity to Lin Chen's eyes.

For the first time, Lin Chen forcibly suppressed the inner demon that was about to emerge!

At this time, how could he let the inner demon out?

Heart Stele!

Lin Chen stabilized his mind.

Then, he looked at Dragon Yan Dao.

The Heavenly Punishment Lightning was about to collide with the Ancient Spear Soul he had transformed into in the air...

Dragon Yan Dao knew he was going to die!

But he was so resolute and determined.

As everyone knew, Dragon Yan Dao was never afraid of death!

He had almost died once on the level three battlefield.

In fact, this wasn't the only time Dragon Yan Dao had fought to the death.

Before, it was because he didn't even have the qualification to die!

Since Lin Chen began to rise, Dragon Yan Dao was no longer afraid.

"Lin Chen, remember, you are the eternal Human Emperor. The entire human race will support any decision you make, because you are our Emperor!"

Dragon Yan Dao's voice came again.

At this time, Lin Chen was already in despair.

It was the first time he had felt this way...

A sense of powerlessness!

He couldn't catch up with the Heavenly Punishment Divine Lightning.

He could only watch it all happen.

Images of Dragon Yan Dao's life couldn't help but flash through his mind...

Born of noble birth.

But not a born纨绔 (wánkù, good-for-nothing son of wealthy parents).

He could be completely described as the pillar of the Dragon Spirit Kingdom!

He had been since he was a child.

At the age of eight, he was able to make an oath to his ancestors.

To dedicate his life to the country!

When he was a teenager, while others could greedily indulge and play on the land protected by the Dragon Guard Army, Dragon Yan Dao had already set foot on the imperial battlefield.

Blood battles, desperate battles, one after another.

Eventually, he had his edges smoothed.

But he also strengthened his beliefs.

What Lin Chen could never forget was Dragon Yan Dao standing in the Dragon Spirit Kingdom's imperial mausoleum once again.

For the first time, he didn't kneel before his ancestors.

Because…

At that time, he was worthy of these ancestors.

Also because…

At that time, Dragon Yan Dao began to think of the entire human race!

Even more because…

He already knew that the ancestors of the Dragon Spirit Kingdom were not necessarily great or correct.

At the very least, they didn't have a global strategic vision that considered the entire human race.

This was a transformation of Dragon Yan Dao's state of mind.

He…

Lost his beloved wife.

He also lost his worship of his ancestors.

But he retained the soul of a human!

And his spirit.

This was also Dragon Yan Dao's transformation.

From then on, no one had ever seen Dragon Yan Dao fight desperately.

At this time, among the crowd, Jin Qiang knelt directly.

"Commander!"

Tears streamed down his face.

He had also seen Dragon Yan Dao's life.

Therefore, Jin Qiang began to understand why Dragon Yan Dao had such a cold and disappointed expression when he decided to return to his country, leave the Dragon Guard Army, and then work for the king, determined to eliminate those nobles...

It wasn't that Dragon Yan Dao wanted to protect those nobles.

But that he had already seen through it.

Jin Qiang didn't see through it at the time.

Dragon Yan Dao used all of his limited life and combat power to protect the entire human race.

Therefore, he was disappointed in Jin Qiang, who was一心 (yīxīn, wholeheartedly) wanting to go back and fight the nobles.

But Dragon Yan Dao ultimately didn't interfere with his choice.

This was the eternal Dragon Spirit Kingdom, commander of the Dragon Guard Army!

Not just Jin Qiang.

The entire Dragon Guard Army was kneeling and shouting.

Everything was already irreversible...

The next moment, Zhang Tianwei shouted, "Everyone in the human race, respectfully send off the old general!"

Irreversible.

In the sky above, the most magnificent fireworks had already bloomed!

Bang!

The void was exploding.

"Respectfully send off the old general!"

At this moment, everyone in the human race knelt down.

Including those mercenaries!

These powerhouses from various races were also deeply shocked by Dragon Yan Dao!

Was this the human race?

Were these the gods of the human race?

How was it possible!

Why…

Were there still gods in the universe who would use their lives to protect those ants?

Impossible!

How could such gods exist?

But now, they had truly seen it.

They also saw for the first time that the Dragon Guard Army soldiers of the human race, who usually didn't even make a sound when they bled, were all sobbing uncontrollably at this moment...

Hundreds of thousands of people shouted in unison.

The sorrow shook the heavens.

In the void above, Lin Chen arrived with the Buddha and the Goddess of Wisdom.

Chi You also arrived.

And…

The three Demon Lords.

But everyone looked at Lin Chen together, holding Dragon Yan Dao's body.

And Dragon Yan Dao's soul had already left his body...

"Get back here!"

Lin Chen shouted and directly forced Dragon Yan Dao's soul back into his body...

He obviously didn't want to accept this fact.

Perhaps, Lin Chen was about to go crazy at this moment!

"Human Emperor!"

Chi You hurriedly wanted to remind him.

But at this moment, the Buddha's golden hand appeared.

Boom!

Then…

The Buddhist chant resounded.

In the sound of Buddhist chants, Dragon Yan Dao's soul actually returned to his body on its own.

But the Buddha didn't stop, but continued chanting.

The golden hand also sealed Dragon Yan Dao's five senses and six consciousnesses.

"Lin Chen, don't be impulsive. The Buddha is using Buddhist teachings to seal his five senses and six consciousnesses. This can ensure that the soul doesn't dissipate, but…"

Chi You persuaded Lin Chen to calm down and explained it to him.

"But what?"

Lin Chen asked.

His voice was like thunder!

"His spiritual soul…"

The Goddess of Wisdom said with a sad face, "Is now heading to the lower universe, Hell Mountain."

"The Buddha can only offer salvation."

Chi You sighed and said, "Moreover, there are only seven days and seven nights!"

"No, it's forty-nine days!"

The next moment, Chi You saw the Buddha open his eyes. The current Buddha couldn't say anything else, and had to keep chanting Buddhist scriptures.

But the Buddha opened his eyes!

That meant Chi You was wrong.

Chi You immediately reacted and changed his words, "King Kong is now a Buddha, bestowed upon the human race, blessed by the human race's luck, and his Buddhist teachings are even more powerful. Now he can maintain it for at least forty-nine days... Lin Chen, Dragon Yan Dao still has a chance to be resurrected!"

"What chance?"

Lin Chen looked at Chi You and said, "I will find him whether it's in the heavens or the earth, I want him to live!"

"I'm afraid it's difficult…" Chi You hesitated.

But at this time, Zeus opened his mouth above the dome: "If you want him to live, go to the bottom of Hell Mountain and bring his spiritual soul back from the endless ghost spirits, and he will live... Lin Chen, do you dare to go? Haha…"

Zeus laughed.

The next moment, the great face of the sky formed by his will dissipated.

At this time, the Demon Emperor also spoke, "Lin Chen, this venerable one told you before that you cannot push the Divine Temple too hard, and told you to stop, but you didn't listen... This time, it's not that this venerable one didn't take action to save you, but the order of the battlefield cannot be disrupted, do you understand?"

When Lin Chen heard this, he was about to flare up.

But Chi You stopped him and said loudly, "Demon Emperor, the Human Emperor has already admitted his mistake."

Lin Chen frowned.

But then he heard the Goddess of Wisdom's voice transmission, she said, "The entrance to the lower universe is in Fengdu City, and it can only be opened with the Demon Emperor's consent... But…"

Before the Goddess of Wisdom could finish speaking, Lin Chen understood Chi You.

The next moment, Lin Chen said loudly, "Demon Emperor, Lin Chen understands, I implore the Demon Emperor to allow Lin Chen to enter the lower universe!"

"Are you really going?"

The Demon Emperor's voice rose an octave.

His tone was full of surprise.

Chi You also looked at Lin Chen with a shocked expression, he immediately transmitted his voice, "Let the Demon Emperor take you! Beg him!"

Lin Chen smiled.

Right now, he hated the Demon Emperor to the core.

But he still had to beg him?

Lin Chen didn't even want the Demon Emperor to stand by and watch, he just wanted him to stand on the side of the alliance and give him and the human race a little more support, so that Zeus wouldn't take action, but what about the Demon Emperor?

Why should Lin Chen beg him?

Therefore, Lin Chen's response was: "Lin Chen is going!"

"Alright, this venerable one agrees to you, but... the matter of passing on the Demon Emperor's scripture that I mentioned before will be dropped. In addition, this Emperor also wants your Human Emperor to make an oath that if you go and never return, the human race will be ruled by the Jiuli race from now on, what do you say?"

The Demon Emperor didn't stop Lin Chen.

However, he should also have felt that after this incident, Lin Chen's attitude towards him had changed.

Combined with the Xuan Tian Treasure Mirror's prophetic warning…

How could the Demon Emperor not be on guard?

Therefore, he proposed a condition.

"Okay!"

Lin Chen agreed directly.

No matter what was ahead, he had to agree.

Otherwise, Dragon Yan Dao would be completely dead.

The Buddha's efforts would also be in vain.

Most importantly, he was the Human Emperor!

Therefore, he had to take responsibility.

But…

Why did the Demon Emperor agree to Lin Chen?

If he was wary of Lin Chen, he could have just taken action!

The next moment, everyone finally understood everything.

The Goddess of Wisdom and Chi You both sighed…

"Alright, come to the Demon Palace now. The entrance to the lower universe is the Endless Abyss that suppresses饕餮 (Tāotiè, a mythical wild beast), you can only enter the lower universe by passing through there!"

The Demon Emperor's voice gradually disappeared.

What!

Everyone was shocked!

At this time, everyone understood everything.

They understood why the Demon Emperor was willing to help Lin Chen and the human race do these things.

They also understood why the Goddess of Wisdom and Chi You sighed.

So that's how it was!

Everything was calculated by the Demon Emperor!

The passage between the upper universe and the lower universe was actually the Endless Abyss.

The Endless Abyss that held饕餮 (Tāotiè, a mythical wild beast)!

Who could pass through here?

Lin Chen also understood why Chi You asked Lin Chen to beg the Demon Emperor in the end.

He even told Lin Chen not to contradict the Demon Emperor.

It turned out it was all because of this!

This Endless Abyss, apart from Zeus, only the Demon Emperor could guarantee to take Lin Chen through it.

However, Lin Chen didn't speak.

How could he beg the Demon Emperor?

So what to do now?

Endless Abyss, should he go or not?

Lin Chen took Dragon Yan Dao's body back to the human race's main city.

The Buddha was always by his side, chanting Buddhist scriptures non-stop.

Therefore, Lin Chen handed Dragon Yan Dao over to the Buddha to take care of.

He and the others came to the side.

The atmosphere was very oppressive.

Everyone was silent.

After all, the entire human race now had extremely strong centripetal force and cohesion.

But what if there was no Lin Chen...

Therefore, no one wanted Lin Chen to take risks.

But if Lin Chen retreated, would the spirit of the human race still be there?

If heroes like Dragon Yan Dao weren't saved, who would dare to sacrifice for the human race in the future?

Lin Chen just silently recalled Yang Yourong and Ying Xiyue.

In addition, there were also those Ghost Emperors and Ghost Sovereigns.

He left a Ghost Emperor to guard Blue Star, and let those ghost spirits continue to control the scientific and technological talents.

Finally, Arikes spoke: "You can't go. I believe that even if that old thing was still alive here, he would definitely say the same! Just think of it as the old thing's destiny, to die for the human race, he died a worthy death! But our human race can't be without Lin Chen!"

Arikes was speaking while wiping away tears.

He had been憋屈 (biēqū, feeling oppressed/suffocated) all day.

When Dragon Yan Dao rushed out for everyone, he actually broke down.

Yes, everyone jokingly called Arikes and Dragon Yan Dao a pair of bickering partners.

But that was because everyone knew that the relationship between the two was actually very deep, and they were deliberately teasing them.

It was also at this time that only Arikes dared to stand up and say that he wouldn't let Lin Chen risk his life for Dragon Yan Dao.

The next one was Long Qianshan.

Dragon Yan Dao's son.

His face was full of tears, but he nodded and said, "Uncle Zhan is right, Human Emperor... Long Qianshan, son of Dragon Yan Dao, begs you, you can't go!"

As he spoke, Long Qianshan knelt down.

But Lin Chen looked up and shouted, "What are you kneeling for? Our human race only kneels to heaven and earth, because heaven and earth nurtured and raised our human race; our human race only kneels to our parents, because our parents also nurtured and raised us! This time, I must go. Not only for your guardian deity, but also for the future of the entire human race. If I go, the human race will have a future. If I don't go, then... the human race will have no future!"

Lin Chen's words were not difficult to understand.

Without this spirit of "though ten thousand people stand in my way, I shall go," how could the human race be revitalized?

And how could the cohesion and luck of the human race be guaranteed?

Therefore!

Lin Chen had actually made up his mind when he recalled Ying Xiyue and Yang Yourong.

At this time, he looked at Ying Xiyue.

"Let's go, we're going to bring the human race's heroes home!"
