Chapter 2739 Profiting From Disaster
Are you going to speak?! roared the Heaven Executioner. His patience was gone. Long Chen had too many secrets on him. Hence, even now, the divine families refused to give up.
However, the only one capable of making Long Chen open his mouth was the Heaven Executioner, and even he had failed. If he had failed, then there was no point in others even trying.
As a result, the divine families had given the Heaven Executioner the order to try one final push, and if it still failed, all they could do was kill Long Chen.
Although Long Chen was caught and trapped here, just the idea of him living made them uneasy.
Back then, you crippled my Dantian, but I still managed to grow to this level. Do you feel like theres any chance that Ill submit to you? sneered Long Chen.
Then Ill just cripple you once more! The Heaven Executioner furiously unleashed a palm on Long Chens Dantian.
Primal chaos bead, someones attacking you. You better kill him! Long Chen prayed inside. He had successfully baited the Heaven Executioner into attacking his Dantian.
BOOM!
Long Chens Dantian rumbled. The primal chaos bead didnt react, but his 108,000 stars appeared.
Not good! Long Chens expression changed.
You have this many astral spaces? The Heaven Executioner was surprised. A star diagram had appeared within Long Chens Dantian and manifested before him.
Eastern Wasteland Bell, what are you doing?! I cant stall any longer! roared Long Chen inside.
Close! Just the final step remains! responded the Eastern Wasteland Bell, also at a critical juncture.
Unfortunately, both of them were at critical junctures. If the Eastern Wasteland Bell came over now, everything would be for naught.
Long Chen had the most difficult choice in front of him. He glared at the Heaven Executioner, and the Heaven Executioner smiled sinisterly. No wonder you have so much power. So your cultivation path is different from everyone elses. A total of 108,000 astral spaces. It really is hard to imagine. Just how strong is your world energy? Fortunately, you didnt get to continue growing. With this kind of foundation, even just reaching the Emperor realm might be enough for you to be completely unrivaled. How unfortunate for you that this is your fate. You were fated to die to my hands. Whether it was when you were first born or today, you never managed to escape my grasp. You have so many stars. Crushing them one by one sounds like a fun idea. Ill try it.
The Heaven Executioner finally saw some hope of success, so he smiled excitedly. Long Chens furious gaze only stimulated him.
Long Chen clenched his fists. Strike back or endure? If the Eastern Wasteland Bell couldnt fully recover, it wouldnt be able to handle the Heaven Devastating Bracelet. The Eastern Wasteland Bell had told him that the Heaven Devastating Bracelet was their most terrifying enemy. If they couldnt deal with it, the Martial Heaven Continent would be destroyed no matter what.
However, if he endured, his stars would be destroyed. That would affect the power of the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art, and he might even be crippled. Long Chen was caught in a painful dilemma.
BOOM!
Just as Long Chen was hesitating, the Heaven Executioner formed a hand seal. A hand appeared within the star map in Long Chens body, grabbing one of the stars and crushing it.
The star exploded, causing Long Chen to let out a furious roar. This was a humiliation, and a wave of anger that he could not suppress exploded out of him. His killing intent condensed into a solid form.
Hehe, good, now its interesting. You refused to make a sound before. A wooden log isnt interesting. Scream some more... The Heaven Executioner grew more excited seeing this reaction.
However, just as he was pleased by this, a majestic energy surged out of Long Chens Dantian. In that instant, space and time seemed to freeze. The Heaven Executioner was shocked to find that he couldnt move.
Most terrifying of all, the power of heaven and earth had vanished along with the laws of the Heavenly Daos. He couldnt sense any Heavenly Dao energy.
What...?!
The Heaven Executioner was terrified. He didnt know what had happened. The power of the outside world had vanished, and even his own world energy was sealed. He had fallen from a peak expert to an ant in an instant.
Mist surged out of Long Chens Dantian, and the formations binding Long Chens body turned to dust. But no alarm rang out.
Even the destroyed formation runes were unable to spread. It was as if the world was frozen. The only thing moving was a cyclone around Long Chens Dantian.
So thats the case. It seems that I need to thank you for helping me inadvertently open the gate to the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art.
Long Chen smiled oddly at the terrified Heaven Executioner. One of his 108,000 stars had been broken. Due to that, it created space for the rest of his 108,000 stars to start moving.
Before this, his star map was like a game board covered in pieces. Since the board was full, there was nowhere for any of the pieces to move.
However, once one piece was removed, it created space for the rest of the pieces to move.
Minutes ago, his star map was dead. Now, it was alive. His 108,000 stars began to move on their own, and as they did, endless power filled Long Chens body.
Only when something is imperfect is there room to grow. Something that is perfect is dead. Because the moon wanes, it also waxes. Only by being imperfect is it possible to manifest the changes of the Dao.
Long Chen instantly comprehended this. The enlightenment that the Sovereigns had tried to pass down to him through their experiences and techniques became clear.
Long Chen reached out and tore off the Heaven Executioners arm. In his hand was a violet jade pendant.
Seeing that jade pendant, Long Chens expression changed. The Heaven Executioner sneered, Hehe, although I couldnt ring the alarm, the spiritual imprint inside of my Soul Calming Jade has been erased. In other words, you are trapped in this world. It will take years for you to find the spatial node of this world. By that time, the Martial Heaven Continent will have long since been destroyed. Furthermore, when they see that the channel to this world has been shut, theyll know what happened. Theyll destroy this entire world along with you just to ensure that you have no chance of survival. Hahaha, you cant escape!
Long Chen punched the Heaven Executioners Dantian. As a result, the Heaven Executioner coughed up a mouthful of blood, and cracks spread throughout his body. He almost exploded from this one punch from Long Chen.
Oh, sorry. I was just trying to cripple your Dantian, but I used a bit too much power. Fortunately, you didnt die. That would be letting you off far too easily. Ive memorized all your techniques. Lets switch positions and just see how tough your bones are!
After crippling the Heaven Executioner, a rune on Long Chens palm lit up. The blue-haired Lei Linger appeared.
Lei Linger, you should know what to do.
Big brother, dont worry. I wont let him die. Ill make sure he lives a life worse than death. Ill return double the pain he made you suffer. Lei Linger took out a small lightning blade and stabbed it into the Heaven Executioners chest. The method, angle, and positioning were all the same as the Heaven Executioners technique.
AHH! The Heaven Executioner let out a miserable scream, his body quivering in pain. At this moment, Long Chen smiled. That scream was like music to his ears.
Lei Linger, bring him with you. Lets go find the Eastern Wasteland Bell.
Just as Long Chen said this, the void shuddered. The Eastern Wasteland Bell appeared before him.
