Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts-Chapter 6153 Bewildering Mist Heavenly Moat

“This fellow really knows how to act! When it started crying, I almost felt pity.” Long Chen couldn’t help but laugh as he put away the Earth Vein Bull Python.

“It wasn’t entirely an act. It wanted to give you different curse arts because copying a secret art like this is the same as cutting a piece of its flesh. A normal curse art is like shedding a single hair—it doesn’t hurt. But these two secret arts are not just its flesh, but its bones as well,” explained the Earth Cauldron.

“They’re that amazing?” Long Chen gasped.

There were now two additional runes floating in the primal chaos space—treasures he had conned out of the green parrot. The Earth Cauldron had already checked them to ensure there were no problems. One was the Curse Resistance Divine Rune, and the other was the Neutralization Dao Divine Scripture.

“That Green Old Sixth is no ordinary lifeform. Condensing these two divine runes cost it a bit of core energy—that’s why it felt so aggrieved,” said the Earth Cauldron.

“Did we go too far this time?”

“Don’t pity it. It deserves what it gets. Back then... well, that’s in the past. It’s still too early to say if that fellow is a friend or foe. Since it’s not a friend, you naturally have to be ruthless when needed. And it’s not stupid—your flame is very important to it. It was only willing to make this trade because it gained something worthwhile.”

“Tch, if I had known it had more to offer, I would’ve asked for something even crazier,” said Long Chen mercilessly.

“...”

“Senior, how do I learn these two runes?” asked Long Chen.

“That Green Old Sixth is very treacherous. These runes aren’t something you can cultivate right now. If you force it, you’ll get injured or even suffer a backlash.”

“That bad?”

The Earth Cauldron said, “Actually, I asked for these two runes for Yao Ling-er. After refining them, she will have the ability to counter and neutralize curses. Also, she will come to comprehend the essence of curse energy through them.

“She was a demonic cauldron spirit to begin with and possesses demonic qi. After comprehending these runes, she will be able to refine demonic pills twice as fast with half the effort. And as long as she’s with you, you can ignore curse energy. You won’t need to spend time studying this yourself,” said the Earth Cauldron.

“Thank you, Master,” Yao Ling-er said, delighted.

She immediately sucked those two divine runes inside of her.

Long Chen smiled. The Earth Cauldron clearly had its own motives, giving its apprentice some special treatment.

Since Long Chen didn’t need to worry about these runes, he stopped bothering with them.

He then checked on the Earth Vein Bull Python in his spiritual space and was completely in awe.

Its blood qi, Sovereign flame, and divine abilities were all perfectly preserved. Green Old Sixth had even added a trace of its core energy into its bloodline, adding some curse runes. Now its attacks carried curse energy as well.

Now, the Earth Vein Bull Python could trample over anyone in the same realm. Not many demonic beasts could even match it in the next realm.

According to the Earth Cauldron, Green Old Sixth had definitely found something in this region and had been raising powerful puppets to make a big score. That was why it was so reluctant to part with the Earth Vein Bull Python. The Earth Cauldron said it definitely had more than one puppet.

However, Green Old Sixth had been clever. It didn’t mention the others for fear that Long Chen would demand more if he found out.

Long Chen couldn’t help smiling. That bird was sly. Indeed... if he had known about the other puppets, he definitely would have tried to take them too.

As Long Chen and the others continued onward, they encountered many terrifying existences. Although Long Chen had the Earth Vein Bull Python now, he still didn’t dare to be careless.

If Long Chen could, he would try to go around. Unlike Green Old Sixth, who could spot Long Chen first with his powerful divine sense, the other demonic beasts weren’t that intelligent. As long as Long Chen didn’t provoke them, they weren’t too much of a threat.

Several days passed like this. The demonic beasts in the area were indeed powerful, but Long Chen and the others became more relaxed. At this point, there was no real difference between a Human Emperor and a Sovereign Lord.

Whoever disturbed one of these terrifying creatures would be the first to die. In fact, Human Emperors might even have a better chance of slipping by unnoticed. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

Half a month later, a thick mist appeared ahead. Long Chen found out that the mist was blocking his divine sense.

“Once we reach the Bewildering Mist Heavenly Moat, we’ll be safe!” exclaimed one elder.

To be sure, he entered the mist first. Then, the original devil rune on his forehead started to flash.

“Yes, this is it! This is the Bewildering Mist Heavenly Moat! As long as we pass through it, we will reach the devil sealing land!” another elder shouted excitedly.

When Long Chen entered the mist, he found that a strange law was suppressing his divine sense, his soul, and his bloodlines.

No wonder they dared to shout so loudly now—this place belonged to them. Long Chen could sense the aura of the original devil race experts rising.

“Long Chen...” Yue Xiaoqian muttered.

With a reluctant expression, Yue Xiaoqian looked at Long Chen. This place was the original devil race’s land. Every other race would be suppressed here.

Long Chen knew the time to part had come, so he gently caressed Yue Xiaoqian’s cheek.

The others quickly pulled back the disciples still celebrating, giving the two some privacy.

Yue Xiaoqian hugged Long Chen tightly and asked, “The ten thousand Daos are like a flood. How long do we have to struggle? From the mortal world to the immortal world, the original devil race is hunted like dogs. We never get a break. Long Chen, did my original devil race commit some grave sin? Why is there no place for us in the nine heavens?”

Yue Xiaoqian wept. Their reunion had been short, and now they had to part again.

The path of cultivation was endless and perilous. No one could remain aloof. Who knew when they would meet again?

Yue Xiaoqian’s heart ached. This world was too cruel. Was it really so hard to live a peaceful life?

“Xiaoqian, don’t lose faith. Remember, the harder it gets, the closer we are to victory,” consoled Long Chen gently.

“But what kind of victory will that be? The essence of this barbaric world never changes. Even though I’m the sacred daughter of the original devil race... if you didn’t have the power to protect us, do you think they’d truly accept you?” Yue Xiaoqian asked, her voice trembling with sorrow.

That was why she hadn’t mentioned Long Chen to her people before. She knew they didn’t want her to marry a human. But Long Chen had saved them from calamity.

The shift in attitude now only made her feel even lonelier. They didn’t accept Long Chen because of their love—but because of power.

If Long Chen had been a weak human, would they have accepted him? Even the original devil race was like this. How could the rest of the world be any better?

Long Chen pulled her in tightly and rubbed her back, smiling comfortingly.

“Believe in me. When I reach the peak, I will change this world.”

Yue Xiaoqian looked up at Long Chen’s steady gaze and nodded. She saw hope in his eyes.

Long Chen looked into the distance as he held her.

When I, Long Chen, reach the peak, the laws of this world will be written by me!

They finally parted. As Long Chen watched her disappear, his heart ached.

Just as he was about to sink into emotion, Evilmoon suddenly shouted, “Are you done now?! Can we start refining the blood moon runes already?!”
