Nine Star Hegemon Body Art c1-2048
Page 1057
BOOM!
A vast aura grew. Long Chen’s cultivation base instantly reached the fifth Heavenstage of Soul Transformation.
This devouring ability belonged to the dark evil dragon race. It could devour heaven and earth and refine all things.
BOOM!
Another two hours passed, and Long Chen’s cultivation base advanced once more. That made Yue Xiaoqian jump. This kind of speed was too shocking.
BOOM!
Six hours later, Long Chen advanced once more. The altar’s space began to twist due to Long Chen’s aura.
BOOM!
Every few hours, an explosive sound would ring out. After two days, Long Chen opened his eyes.
“I’ve finally found a shortcut to cultivating the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art, hahaha!”
Long Chen laughed, his laughter shaking the sky. His surging aura showed that he had advanced to the ninth Heavenstage of Soul Transformation.
Chapter 1730 Heaven Shaking Divine Might
Long Chen stood, his aura causing his clothes to billow. His eyes looked like two sharp blades that could pierce through space, so sharp that people wouldn’t dare to look at them directly.
In the distance, Yue Xiaoqian, who had been protecting him, felt a painful pang in her soul when she looked at him.
The current Long Chen was like a sharp sword. He was so sharp that it hurt her. He had changed, becoming even more imposing and domineering, more like a battle god who could look down on all.
“This is the hegemon side of the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art that Long Chen described?” Yue Xiaoqian was deeply shaken. She was even a bit afraid.
The current Long Chen was so domineering that it blocked out all emotions. He was heartless, a death god looking down on its subjects. Yue Xiaoqian felt that this was no longer the Long Chen she knew.
She finally understood why Long Chen did not dare to cultivate the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art according to its true essence. This kind of domineeringness was something that didn’t allow others to approach him at all.
Even from such a distance, she felt like his aura was so sharp that it would slice her as soon as she got closer. This was a merciless and domineering side, one that would annihilate anyone who resisted regardless of their motives.
Long Chen calmly sensed the changes in his body. A faint smile appeared on his face.
As an ocean’s worth of medicinal pills had poured into his stomach, his cultivation base had reached the ninth Heavenstage of Soul Transformation. He had many times more spiritual yuan than before.
He had borrowed the blessing of the altar to resist a portion of the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art’s hegemon will. If he hadn’t run out of medicinal pills, he could have advanced another level, to the tenth Heavenstage.
However, the tenth Heavenstage would have been his limit for sure. He had to slow down and get used to this level because as his power grew, so did the will of the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art.
At the ninth Heavenstage, he could still control it easily. It wouldn’t be a problem.
The divine ring appeared behind him again, and five-colored light lit up the sky. It was even more majestic, stunning, and domineering than before.
Ripples began to appear in the air once the divine ring appeared. All the surrounding energy was being forced to worship him. It poured toward him.
“So I was wrong as to the divine ring’s usage before. I don’t need the approval of the Heavenly Daos to get their energy. The divine ring will force the world to give me its energy. I am the ruler of heaven and earth, and the world must bow to me. If it refuses, then I will destroy and overturn this world. That’s the meaning of being a hegemon. It doesn’t matter if it’s a god or a devil, heaven or earth, they have to submit to me. Follow me and prosper, defy me and die.”
Long Chen clenched his fist, feeling the power the divine ring gave him, experiencing that will of forcing everyone else to submit. He finally knew that his previous fighting styles had all been wrong.
“No wonder the heavens want to destroy me. It doesn’t want to submit to me, so it naturally wants to kill me.”
Now he knew why his luck was so bad, why his tribulations were always full of destruction, thousands and thousands of times more difficult than the tribulations of other cultivators. The heavens didn’t want to be destroyed, so they didn’t want him to live.
His existence threatened the heavens, so the heavens wanted to eliminate him.
“Just the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art is enough to make the heavens terrified. Hence, just how terrifying are the true origins of the nine stars?!”
Originally, he had been an ant struggling at the bottom level of the secular world. Due to the Pill Sovereign memories, due to the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art, he had walked to his current position.
“Perhaps I shouldn’t complain. Without the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art, I’d have long since died a terrible death. My path is still long and covered in mist. Before reaching the end, how can I say whether it’s a good thing or not? All I want is to live with a clear conscience. Since I am accompanied by a group of hot-blooded brothers and beauties, I can die without any regrets. So what do I, Long Chen, have to be afraid of? I will not give this life of mine to the heavens, nor will I give it to the nine stars. My life is mine.”
A determined light appeared in his eyes. The world wanted to kill him, while the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art wanted him to become a merciless hegemon. Neither of those was his choice. Since this was the case, he would control the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art, he would control heaven and earth, and he would control his own fate!
“Long Chen!”
Suddenly, Yue Xiaoqian let out a soft cry, her eyes full of worry. The current Long Chen made her feel afraid. He seemed strange.
“I’m fine. Because I increased my cultivation base too quickly, the will of the nine stars is coming out. I can’t restrain it just yet, but it’ll be fine in a while. This place is practically perfect for my cultivation. I’ve already told Huo Long to start refining more of the pills. Once I have enough, I can attempt to reach Life Star here,” said Long Chen.
Yue Xiaoqian was still a bit pale. Long Chen’s current aura was difficult to bear. Although the aura of his cultivation base had been retracted, something else was coming from the depths of his soul and he couldn’t fully control it.
Fortunately, he hadn’t had enough pills to advance another level, otherwise, his aura would be even sharper, to the point where Yue Xiaoqian wouldn’t be able to bear it.
Long Chen did his best to suppress that aura, while Yue Xiaoqian got used to it gradually.
“The heir of the nine stars really is terrifying. Just this aura is enough to subdue enemies,” said Yue Xiaoqian. Great power was always the greatest charisma.
“This current state of mine isn’t a good thing. If I can’t control my own aura, it will be a constant strain on my soul. I’ll need to spend a few days getting used to my new cultivation base before I can control it perfectly,” said Long Chen.
“You can go into seclusion. Don’t worry, I’ll guard you,” said Yue Xiaoqian.
“Thank you.”
Long Chen nodded. He needed to get used to his new cultivation realm. This was definitely not a suitable state to fight in, as he was constantly leaking energy in this state.
Three days later, the raging aura around him began to fade, and after a week, it finally vanished. Long Chen opened his eyes again, but the sharp light within them had been pulled back.
It was like a divine sword that had been hidden in a sheath once again. Long Chen looked about the same as before, but now, each of his movements seemed to contain a domineering air to them. This was something that not even Long Chen sensed.
Long Chen and Yue Xiaoqian held hands once more as they returned down the path. Yue Xiaoqian was smiling sweetly, a smile that made Long Chen’s heart melt.
When they passed the statue of the ancestor, Long Chen cupped his hands again in thanks. He had made great gains he
re that he hadn’t expected.
They returned to the battlefield. The spatial cracks were still open, and the original devil race’s experts were still fighting intensely against the Magical Beasts.
Long Chen suddenly clapped himself on the forehead. “I really am dumb. I even forgot something so important. Xiaoqian, here are many rank nine Heavenly Dao Fruit. You can distribute them so you can be more confident in the Martial Heaven Continent.”
Long Chen gave Yue Xiaoqian a spatial ring packed with the Heavenly Dao Fruits he had gathered. Of course, he kept the Empyrean level ones for himself.
The entire Dragonblood Legion had become rank nine Celestials, so these extra ones were useless to him.
Just now, he had been reminded by the sight of the original devil race’s experts fighting. They hadn’t unleashed their manifestations.
“I don’t know how useful these are to you, but they are useless to me in any case.” Long Chen smiled.
Back then, he had given Heavenly Dao Fruits to the original devil race so their disciples could roam the continent without the worry of exposing their identity. Before having the Heavenly Dao Fruits, those disciples would only be able to unleash a portion of their combat power without exposing their divine seal, and every bit of energy they used up would be lost until they returned to the Skyscraping World since they weren’t able to recover their energy in the Martial Heaven Continent.
Sometimes, despite being perfectly disguised, disciples of the original devil race were forced to allow themselves to be killed just to prevent them from being exposed.
With the Heavenly Dao Fruits, they didn’t have to worry about that. They could use the status of Celestials to roam the continent, and they could also fight using the Heavenly Dao manifestations.
“Of course they’re useful. Being Celestials not only allows us to roam the continent, but it also gives us a second kind of energy, making us even a bit stronger than we are in the Skyscraping World. Furthermore, they can also upgrade our talent- heavens, there are so many!”
Yue Xiaoqian jumped when she saw the mountain of fruit in the spatial ring. This was the result of Long Chen’s most recent expeditions. He had fought many large battles in a row and killed many experts. Due to how busy he had been, he had almost forgotten about them.
“Long Chen, thank you.” Yue Xiaoqian hugged Long Chen’s neck happily. This gift was truly immense to the original devil race.
There were over a hundred thousand high level Heavenly Dao Fruits inside the spatial ring. That was enough to give birth to many geniuses in the original devil race.
“Don’t worry about it. Since our children have to have your surname, why don’t we research exactly how we can have a child?” Long Chen rubbed Yue Xiaoqian’s soft back. He started to get an itching feeling in his pants. That kind of feeling was like a certain area had formed a primal urge.
“Ah!” Yue Xiaoqian suddenly let out a startled cry. They were so close together that she had felt that change. She immediately ran off. “You… you really are evil.”
Yue Xiaoqian vanished.
“Isn’t it only a matter of time? This is called planning ahead. Hey, wait for me. I want to check whether Wilde has eaten his fill.”
Long Chen shouted from behind without the slightest shame, looking like he was about to chase after her.
Chapter 1731 Fighting a Twelfth Rank Magical Beast
Long Chen quickly caught up to Yue Xiaoqian. Her shy appearance was so enchanting, making Long Chen’s heart grow itchier by the second.
The two of them quickly move toward the battlefield. Long Chen wanted to see how Wilde was. Had he finally managed to fill his stomach?
When Long Chen arrived at the battlefield, he saw more Magical Beasts than before. There was even a half-step Netherpassage Magical Beast that had just been slain by a dozen of the original devil race’s Elders.
“What’s going on?”
Long Chen was surprised. According to reason, such a powerful Magical Beast would have been immediately targeted by Wilde.
“Elders, may I ask what happened to my brother?” asked Long Chen. He didn’t see any sign of Wilde.
“Wilde hasn’t come back through the spatial crack ever since entering. We are unable to go through, so we don’t know how he’s been doing,” answered an Elder.
“At first, we could still hear his shouting, but ten days ago, he stopped saying anything. We reported this to the leader, but she told us not to worry, Wilde is definitely fine,” added another Elder.
Hearing that Yue Xihan also knew of this matter put Long Chen at ease. Yue Xihan knew more about Wilde than he did. If she said he was fine, he was definitely fine.
However, the number of Magical Beasts on the battlefield was growing increasingly greater. This didn’t quite make sense. If Wilde was on the other side, he should be drawing the attention of the Magical Beasts, and the number appearing here should be dropping.
The Elders were only here to oversee the battle and would only attack when half-step Netherpassage Magical Beasts appeared, quickly killing them.
It was the disciples of the original devil race who were busy. The Soul Transformation disciples constituted the main force, with Jade Core disciples assisting. Even some weaker disciples were present, and they weren’t lazing around.
They were tidying up the battlefield, transporting the Magical Beast corpses away and stripping them of their hide, bones, blood, cores, etc.
After all, each part of a powerful Magical Beast was an expensive resource. By gathering so many, the original devil race could make quite a profit if they sold them in the Martial Heaven Continent. The rarer and higher level the Magical Beast, the more value they had.
The amount that they could get for these resources was definitely not one bit inferior to what they obtained from their businesses. Not only were they training their disciples, but they were also making money. Yue Xihan’s decision had killed two birds with one stone.
The original devil race’s experts were very powerful. Their attacks contained a unique kind of mysterious energy that increased their power. They were several times stronger than experts on the same level in the continent.
If these disciples managed to grow up, they would become a terrifying army. Clearly, Yue Xihan wanted to raise a powerful force, and the leader of this force was definitely Yue Xiaoqian. She was the future hope of the original devil race, bearing a heavy mission.
After so many days of training, the disciples, whose movements had been a bit sluggish and unrefined, had completely transformed. They were fighting smoothly and easily now.
After looking over the battlefield, Long Chen said, “I don’t like that my foolish brother has disappeared. I’m going to go find him.”
Yue Xiaoqian was startled. “If you were to go against the flow of space like that, you would have to survive the spatial tearing force. Wilde could make it because he has the body of a Blood Barbarian. You will definitely be injured if you try it.”
“No problem. I want to try.”
Long Chen walked toward the giant spatial crack. Only through that crack could one manage to go against the flow and enter the world on the other side.
When Long Chen was close, the spatial crack began to rumble intensely. Countless spatial blades began to gather and clash inside. That destructive power made everyone else’s hearts shake. This was a law of heaven and earth.
Long Chen snorted. His divine ring suddenly appeared like a blazing sun. Even heaven and earth were shaken by his divine ring. A powerful aura surged out of Long Chen, condensing into a giant pillar of light that soared into the sky and blew apart the clouds.
When Long Chen’s vast divine pressure erupted, all the experts of the original devil race, whether they were Elders or disciples, looked in shock at him.
As for the roaring, crazy Magical Beasts, they instantly became frightened rabbits. They knelt on the ground, not daring to move. Even as they were slain by the disciples, they didn’t move.
<
br /> “The divine power of the nine stars. How many epochs has it been? He has finally appeared again. This world is going to change at last.”
Yue Xihan stood at the top of the original devil race’s main palace. Her eyes looked across an immense space to see Long Chen. She muttered to herself, a hint of anticipation in her eyes.
This was the true pressure of the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art, one that forced all other lifeforms to kneel. This was the Hegemon Dao that superseded the Heavenly Daos.
As his divine ring revolved, he felt the laws of the world. They formed millions of tiny dots of light that bowed toward him. In that instant, he felt an unprecedented feeling of grandness. This was a feeling of being above heaven and earth. Even they had to listen to his orders.
As he walked into the spatial crack, even the spatial blades inside seemed to be afraid of him. They actually retreated slowly as he advanced.
Yue Xiaoqian looked at that in awe. The current Long Chen was so domineering that even the spatial laws didn’t dare to go against him.
As he advanced, Long Chen heard an even louder rumbling as if something was roaring at him to intimidate him.
However, he ignored it, continuing to walk forward slowly. The spatial blades were also rumbling, but they didn’t attack him.
“This feels amazing. No good, I can’t laugh. I have to look calm like I’m being low-key.” Long Chen had an urge to raise his head and laugh to unleash this feeling of being unrivaled, but he endured it. He had to suppress that desire. If he allowed that feeling to inflate, sooner or later he would become crazy, blinding himself with his own power.
“Fuck, Guo Ran is really lucky. He gets to show off whenever he wants.”
Long Chen cursed inside. He even began to envy Guo Ran. Guo Ran never gave up any chance to show off, but Long Chen had to suppress that desire, it was too unfair.
However, no matter how Guo Ran showed off, his confidence wouldn’t overinflate. That was because there was the Dragonblood Legion to suppress him if he did. Guo Ran also knew this, which was why he was free to show off without the slightest worry.
