Chapter 5730 Thirteen Astral Veins
Millions of stars shimmered across the ground, forming a vast constellation of astral runes. They were meticulously set up in a certain formation, pulsating with celestial energy.
Long Chen sat at the center of the formation. It was as if he were seated between two giant mirrors, and the stars in the sky stretched endlessly.
Behind Long Chen, thirteen astral veins hovered, absorbing the astral radiance cascading upon them. In just three short days, he had condensed thirteen astral veins.
An eight-colored divine ring spun behind him, bridging the two astral planes. Endless streams of astral energy poured into the thirteen astral veins, fueling their insatiable hunger.
Even after their formation, they continued to devour the heavens' essence, growing increasingly solid. Though their total power remained constant, they underwent a qualitative transformation, their forms becoming clearer and more distinct.
Dragon tails, claws, and horns could now be seen clearly, emitting their own light. They were no longer illusions, but solid bodies. The transformation was breathtaking.
“What a powerful aura!” exclaimed the Jewel Blood Devil.
Standing to the side, the Jewel Blood Devil couldn’t contain its shock. “What cultivation technique does your son cultivate? How could his heaven veins be this powerful?”@@@@
“What cultivation technique? Really?” Long Zhantian repeated, looking at it oddly.
“What’s with that look?” the Jewel Blood Devil asked, feeling like Long Zhantian was mocking it.
“Do you really not know?” asked Long Zhantian.
“Tch, if I knew, why would I ask? I’ve been imprisoned for countless years. How am I supposed to know what it is?” demanded the Jewel Blood Devil.
“Do you not have any inherited memories about how your ancestors died?” asked Long Zhantian.
“My ancestors? They fell to someone called the Nine Star Master... Wait, are you saying—? What the fuck?!” The Jewel Blood Devil leaped in shock. "Are you telling me your son cultivates that lunatic’s technique?!”
Unless Long Zhantian cultivated it himself, he would never grasp its full mysteries. In cultivation, an observer didn’t always see more clearly than the practitioner—often, it was the opposite.
Long Zhantian was full of reverence for the creator of the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art. That individual’s intelligence was truly unfathomable, far surpassing his own.
Even though Long Zhantian could only comprehend the slightest bit about this technique, he managed to aid Long Chen.
BOOM!
The starry sky trembled as a surge of astral energy condensed. A celestial wind swept back Long Zhantian’s hair, disrupting his thoughts.
Long Zhantian refocused and saw one of Long Chen’s astral veins suddenly gleam with newfound vitality. Its scales glowed, its eyes sparkled—it was no longer just an energy construct but a living entity. A trace of spirituality had emerged from it.
Explosive sounds echoed in succession. As if placing the final brushstroke on a masterpiece, the astral veins fully awakened. The thirteen astral dragons now radiated their own soul energy and consciousness, radiating boundless might. Only now did Long Chen’s astral energy enter the great circle.
Slowly, Long Chen opened his eyes. A swirling cosmos lay within them. As his gaze moved, the stars around him flickered in unison. When the astral light in his eyes faded, so did the stars across the land and sky.
“Not bad, not bad. Your astral energy flows at your command. You've reached the great circle. Next, it's time for your Supreme blood,” said Long Zhantian.
“I can condense Supreme blood veins?” Long Chen shouted excitedly.
“Of course. How do you think your dad reached the Divine Emperor realm?” Long Zhantian chuckled.
After saying that, Long Zhantian passed Long Chen a technique he had spent over twenty years perfecting. This was his own unique cultivation technique—his life’s work. Originally, he had intended for it to be Long Chen’s core cultivation method. But after seeing the Dragon Soul Body Forging Art and the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art, he knew it could only serve as a supplement.
“Come, start condensing Supreme blood veins. Dad will protect you.”
As Long Chen was about to start, he suddenly noticed something. “Wait... where’s Senior Jewel?”
“Oh, it went looking for a latrine. Must have eaten something bad,” Long Zhantian replied casually.
