Chapter 6354 Absorption

Heaven and earth trembled. The void before them continuously exploded, unleashing waves of multicolored immortal light.

“That is... Grand Dao aura?”

Long Chen’s heart shook. The immortal light carried the same aura as the Dao Crystal.

“This is good stuff! I want it!” shouted Evilmoon.

“Senior, what is that immortal light? It has Grand Dao aura, yet I can also sense an evil will within it,” Long Chen asked the Earth Cauldron.

“This is Grand Dao qi. It is not the true Grand Dao Source but an artificial imitation. To extract the entire mountain range’s dragon veins along with the energy of countless fallen experts... the one who arranged this is beyond terrifying. Even in the primal chaos era, such a figure would have been considered an overlord. Long Chen, be cautious. This is likely a formation to nurture a devil fetus. If that is the case, there will definitely be one growing inside,” warned the Earth Cauldron.

“If the devil fetus exists, we have to slay it. The best time is before it’s born,” said Long Chen

Long Chen’s expression grew grave. If even the Earth Cauldron was so nervous about it, whatever was hiding inside was definitely not something ordinary.

Another Dao Crystal shot out, and Long Chen grabbed it. It was another exhausted Dao Crystal.

“Could it be...”

“That’s right. Dao Crystals were used to create a heaven-seizing formation. The energy of the entire Heaven’s Spine Mountain Range is being gathered to feed the devil fetus,” confirmed the Earth Cauldron. “Now that the Dao Crystals are being expelled and the energy is dispersing, it means the devil fetus has matured and is about to be born.”

“Qingyun, follow at your own pace!” Long Chen shouted.

Star clouds bloomed beneath Long Chen’s feet as he vanished in a flash. The speed of his Star Cloud Steps left the flying sword far behind.

Mu Qingyun was no longer weak. She had the strength to protect herself, so Long Chen didn’t need to worry.

A few flashes later, a vast basin came into view. It was so enormous that its borders couldn’t be seen. At the bottom of this basin lay an altar, though the twisting space around it concealed what was inside.

Just then, the rock devil giant appeared ahead. Though he had left first, Long Chen had already caught up.

The giant instantly sensed him and turned back with a savage smile.

Long Chen also smiled. His smile wasn’t savage, but it was far more terrifying.

“Die!”

The rock devil giant roared and attacked. But before his strike could land, Long Chen flickered forward like a phantom.

Violet dragon scales covered Long Chen’s right hand. With his Sovereign flames flashing and a shining cross on his right palm, he slapped the rock devil giant’s face.

Long Chen moved with blinding speed. The rock devil giant didn’t even comprehend what had happened before the slap landed.

BOOM!

Half his face exploded, and he howled as his massive body was sent flying.

“How tough!” Long Chen was startled. The rock devil race’s resilience was indeed formidable. He hadn’t held back at all, yet he still failed to blow the giant’s head apart.

If Long Chen were to chase him, he could definitely kill him in just a few moves. But instead, Long Chen chose to ignore him and headed toward the altar with the Star Cloud Steps.

The giant was quite strong, but he posed no real threat. Long Chen had more pressing matters to deal with.

As Long Chen got close to the altar, he heard deafening booms within the twisted space ahead. Terrifying auras pounded against him.

Clearly, others had already entered. It was no surprise.

A screen of light appeared in front of Long Chen. When he passed through, he finally saw the terrifying sight inside.

There was an altar, and it was absolutely enormous. From the sky above, what dominated the view was not the altar itself but a pair of colossal black wings.

The wings were covered in divine diagrams that carried tiny formation discs on them. Some of the formation discs had already crumbled, and Long Chen Chen could see Dao Crystals embedded at the heart of them.

There were tens of thousands of formation discs woven into those wings. Seeing this, even Long Chen couldn’t help but gasp.

The altar trembled violently. At the convergence of starlight above it, a black star pulsed. It was vaguely possible to see divine light flickering within that black star. As it did, it released ear-piercing explosive sounds.

From that star surged endless energy. Divine light and immortal mist fused, flooding heaven and earth.

“That’s all good stuff!” Evilmoon shouted, his voice practically trembling with excitement.

“Long Chen, someone has already broken the altar. That’s why so much Grand Dao qi is leaking out. We must reach the altar quickly. Don’t waste strength fighting others—absorbing the Grand Dao qi is far more important,” advised the Earth Cauldron.

Long Chen nodded. He had wanted to examine those black wings and the star between them, but he gave up that thought.

After all, many lifeforms had already unfurled their domains, frantically absorbing the Grand Dao qi.

Right before Long Chen, a sinister figure cloaked in black qi was drawing the energy into his body. His nine 997 Sovereign flames flashed as a warning.

When he sensed Long Chen coming at him, he shouted, “Ignorant human, if you dare to get closer, I will kill you!”

Just then, Long Chen appeared right in front of him, not showing even a hint of fear. Even if he hadn’t shown off his Sovereign flames, Long Chen knew his power level.

“Die!” the lifeform roared with fury.

And so he did.

His head exploded beneath Long Chen’s slap, and Zhi Zhi dragged his corpse into the primal chaos space.

Before Long Chen could act further, the Earth Cauldron and Evilmoon shot forth. Blood-colored petals unfurled across the sky, locking down the area. Then, the shining Earth Cauldron slammed onto the altar, greedily sucking in the surrounding energy.

Even with Evilmoon’s petals devouring frantically, there was far more energy than it could contain. A massive whirlpool soon formed around Long Chen.

“Long Chen, don’t slack off. Draw this Grand Dao qi into your Sovereign flames. Use your Sovereign flames to extract the essence and expel the useless part. This Grand Dao qi will elevate your physical body to a new level,” urged the Earth Cauldron.

“Alright!”

Long Chen sat in the air and formed hand seals, sucking the Grand Dao qi toward him.
