“this time, i’ve profited immensely!”
long chen was in a private room, looking at the bronze fragment. it was shining brightly with divine light.
long chen had made an excuse that he needed to recover from his wounds, but in reality he had come to look at this treasure.
using the fragment of the eastern wasteland bell, long chen had broken the counterfeit. when it broke, the sealed source qi inside of it flowed out and was absorbed by the fragment. the suction of the fragment was why the ye family head had been unable to stop the leak no matter what he tried.
the source qi originally belonged to the eastern wasteland bell, so the fragment’s suction was returning the source qi to its home.
there was now a new complete rune on the fragment, and it seemed to contain the flow of time within it. it was as if all changes of all living things could be seen within it. it possessed terrifying power.
long chen made a light swing with the fragment, and thin cracks appeared within the void. this fragment’s power was now astonishing.nôv(el)b\\jnn
“it’s too bad that it’s just a fragment. it can’t acknowledge you as master,” said evilmoon.
“it’s fine. i feel like i’ll run into the eastern wasteland bell sooner or later. i can return the fragment then. hehe, even if i don't know how to use it, i can use it as a concealed weapon. perhaps i can break other divine items with it. furthermore, even if it doesn’t have any uses, just the expression of the ye family head when i broke his fake was delightful,” snickered long chen.
“you still feel like laughing? i am actually worrying about you,” said evilmoon.
“worrying? about what?”
“you forcibly changed such a terrifying cultivation technique, and you’ll need to create your own cultivation path now. do you realize just how difficult creating a cultivation technique is? a technique like the nine star hegemon body art would only come to be after going through thousands of revisions and countless tests, and you have deviated from its path. do you still feel like you can cultivate it to its end? let’s take your world extermination flame lotus as an example. do you feel like you can condense it with a deviated path? even if you could, it would require being different from the very start, not starting with the same foundation and then suddenly changing halfway. that’s even more difficult than creating it from scratch. right now, you should be pondering about how you can return to the correct path while you still haven’t deviated too far. perhaps there’s still time,” said evilmoon.
evilmoon might have an even greater grasp of just how terrifying the nine star hegemon body art was compared to long chen. seeing long chen laughing like this, it couldn’t bear to keep watching.
“i’ll create my own path. who can say whether it’s a blessing or disaster? i rather like the feeling of leaving everything up to myself. my fate is in my own hands now,” said long chen.
for some reason, the suffocating feeling in long chen’s heart had been lifted after he had deviated from the nine star hegemon body art’s normal path.
it was like he had been sitting in someone else’s chariot before and forced to go wherever the chariot had been carrying him. now, he was the one pulling the chariot. although the path ahead was covered in mist, it was also full of hope. long chen liked this feeling of opportunity being found within danger. he liked having his fate in his own hands.
seeing guo ran’s mournful expression, everyone laughed, but they also felt that his death was a pity. he was an inexhaustible mountain of immortal metal, so it was especially painful for guo ran to lose him.
however, because it was long chen who had killed him, guo ran couldn’t say anything. he could only use this method to express his resentment at long chen’s barbaric methods.
“even if that old bitch didn’t force me to, i would still have to kill zhao ritian. you couldn’t use him any longer,” said long chen.
“why is that?”
“guo ran, xia chen, there is a faint mark on your foreheads now. have you not sensed it?” said long chen.
everyone was startled and looked toward xia chen and guo ran. after a close examination, they truly did notice a vague black mark.
it looked to be dust but was growing within their flesh. it was very faint, almost imperceptible.
“what is this?” guo ran jumped. he then wiped his forehead hard. as he rubbed, faint patterns appeared on his skin, looking like roots. they quickly faded.
xia chen did the same, and both of them were shocked, not knowing what was going on. but it definitely wasn’t something good.
“zhao ritian possessed a terrifying ability that could destroy the entire world. if he did absorb the entire world’s immortal metal, it would cause the collapse of the world. every world has its own laws, and it will not permit existences that can threaten it. that’s why zhao ritian did not dare to absorb so much immortal metal that it would damage the world’s foundation. otherwise, he would be cursed by the world. zhao ritian had constantly wandered through many worlds, absorbing a bit of immortal metal from every world to avoid such a curse. did you not find it curious? if zhao ritian possessed such a terrifying ability, why did he not absorb an infinite amount of immortal metal?” said long chen.
everyone came to a sudden realization. that was true. if zhao ritian recklessly absorbed all the immortal metal from multiple worlds, no one could stop him.
“that fellow was quite sinister. because he was the one forced to absorb the immortal metal, ninety-nine percent of the curse was absorbed by the two of you. fortunately, since you were doing this to help the dragonblood legion create new equipment, the curse was split amongst the entire dragonblood legion. if it wasn’t for the fact that so many people were sharing the curse at once, the two of you would have long since died,” said long chen.
“boss... why didn’t you tell us sooner?!” exclaimed guo ran.
“this was told to me by ling xi. because the star field divine world is a masterless and fractured world, the will of the world has weakened to the point that the curse is not very powerful. with it being shared by so many people, it’s not dangerous. but now that we’re back on the martial heaven continent, the laws of the world would not permit zhao ritian to recklessly absorb its immortal metal. so zhao ritian has already lost his use. to eliminate him in front of the divine families is the best choice. it’s satisfying, relieves anger, and can even be called perfect, hehe,” laughed long chen.
“boss, but what about our curse? will we die?” asked guo ran fearfully. he didn’t know if it was just in his mind or not, but he felt like his head was swelling, and he was feeling cold.
long chen was silent for a moment. he finally sighed, “yes.”
