Chapter 5569: Success
the daffodil stood majestically at three meters tall, its expansive leaves stretching far and wide to dominate the heart of the lake. at its center bloomed nine large, bowl-sized flowers, each radiating an ethereal beauty.
starry spots covered its petals and leaves, resembling countless twinkling stars scattered across the night sky. their radiant glow reflected off the cave walls, transforming the surroundings into a breathtaking wonderland. it was incredibly beautiful.
“now that’s a treasure!”
long chen’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. the earth cauldron had told him about a unique treasure that existed in the nine heavens called the heavenly star daffodil. it was a priceless treasure coveted by nine star heirs because of its capability to produce its own astral energy.
for the past few years, long chen had always been looking for it. however, even the huayun trading company had never even heard of its name, let alone seen it. yet here it was, radiating vast astral energy. long chen immediately recognized it as the treasure the earth cauldron had described.
just as long chen reached for it, loud sounds rang out behind him. one figure after another flew through the waterfall with weapons drawn, killing intent radiating from their bodies. long chen’s expression darkened.
the heavenly star daffodil’s starlight started to fade rapidly, its once-radiant form withering under the oppressive aura.
“shit!” long chen cursed.
these idiots were holding weapons and unleashing massive killing intent, forcing the spiritual plant into a state of slumber.
with a flash, long chen appeared on top of the heavenly star daffodil and cast his starry sky manifestation, protecting the daffodil with its light.
when long chen’s astral energy erupted, the heavenly star daffodil quivered slightly. it seemed to resonate with long chen’s astral energy and stopped withering.
the heavenly star daffodil was a companion plant that every nine star heir would dream of obtaining. with it, nine star heirs could cultivate twice as fast with half the effort. as for the heavenly star daffodil, it was like it existed solely for the nine star heirs. it rejected all other lifeforms, resonating only with astral energy akin to long chen’s.
“kill him! seize that treasure!”
a tall, thin man at the forefront roared. he clutched a compass, the tool he had used to locate the surrounding treasure. unfortunately, he was ignorant of the daffodil’s true nature.
he didn’t know that other than long chen, no one else here could obtain it.
hundreds of thousands of strikes hammered against his barrier, causing it to flicker and dim. the once-radiant astral shield now appeared fragile, as if on the verge of collapse.
spotting this weakness, the attackers redoubled their efforts. to them, it was only a matter of time before the barrier shattered. once it did, they could kill long chen.
long chen’s hands trembled. even as his astral energy was nearly drained, he pushed his spiritual strength to its limits, desperately trying to commune with the heavenly star daffodil. gaining its trust was the only way to move it into the primal chaos space.
suddenly, a sharp pain wracked his body, and long chen spat out a mouthful of blood. his astral energy was on the brink of exhaustion. left with no other choice, he tapped into his violet blood power to sustain the barrier.
burning his violet blood was a dangerous gamble. if the heavenly star daffodil sensed even the slightest anomaly, it would flee. however, long chen had no other choice.
fortunately, the plant didn’t seem to react negatively to the violet blood. a wave of relief washed over long chen as he fully ignited its power, bolstering the failing barrier. however, time was running out, and the relentless assault showed no signs of letting up.
still, the attackers were relentless. hundreds of thousands of experts, including dozens of sealed experts with immense power, hammered the barrier.
fortunately, fewer than twenty of them had condensed a heaven vein, so long chen could still persevere. if they had fifty, he wouldn’t have been able to hold on this long.
seeing long chen ignite his essence blood, these people started to realize that long chen’s power was beyond their expectations. however, there was no stopping now, so they went all out.
just as long chen’s violet blood power reached its limit, the heavenly star daffodil lit up. it floated gracefully out of the pool, its radiant energy signaling its readiness.
at this sight, long chen was overjoyed. his astral energy flowed around it, sending it into the primal chaos space.
the moment the heavenly star daffodil vanished, long chen’s suppressed killing intent erupted like a volcano. evilmoon appeared in his hand, its dark blade thirsting for blood.
“all of you can die now!” long chen roared.
he swung evilmoon, unleashing a black crescent moon that sliced through the air.
