Nine Star Hegemon Body Art - Chapter 860
Chapter 860: 860
When Yue Xiaoqian ate the fruit, she was stunned as she suddenly noticed that other than her core energy, another kind of energy had appeared within her body .
When she circulated that energy, not only was she not restricted by the world, but she even received a kind of blessing from it that increased her own power .
“Long Chen… what fruit is this?!” Yue Xiaoqian was completely shocked . How could there be such a heaven-defying existence in this world?
“I call it a Heavenly Dao Fruit . It’s one of my secrets, so please keep it from others,” said Long Chen .
“I swear I won’t tell anyone . I won’t even tell my mother,” said Yue Xiaoqian solemnly upon seeing how serious he was .
“Xiaoqian, I’m sorry . It’s not that I don’t trust you, but this Heavenly Dao Fruit is too important . I have no choice but to be cautious,” said Long Chen .
“I know, and I understand . Thank you for sharing such an important secret with me,” said Yue Xiaoqian gratefully, holding Long Chen’s hand .
He nodded . As long as Yue Xiaoqian didn’t bother him with how he had such a thing, he was at ease . “Then how are your gains?”
Yue Xiaoqian stood and formed a hand seal . A huge image appeared behind her . That image seemed to be a flower, but not a flower . It looked like a cross between a flower and a leaf . It was extremely bizarre .
A powerful aura erupted out of Yue Xiaoqian, soaring straight into the clouds . At the same time, space began to rumble around her .
“What a powerful aura!” Long Chen was startled . Yue Xiaoqian was extremely powerful . This was just her initial control over her new Heavenly Dao energy, and she was clearly unfamiliar with using it . However, this aura showed that she was even stronger than he had thought .
Yue Xiaoqian pointed her finger three times, and three rays of Sword Qi shot out .
Three holes appeared in a distant mountain . It then collapsed, shocking Long Chen .
In just a few breaths, Yue Xiaoqian had managed to release such an attack with an unfamiliar energy . Her comprehension abilities were almost terrifying .
“Amazing, absolutely amazing! Long Chen, I can actually control the outside world’s energy now! When I run into enemies, I don’t have to worry about exposing myself anymore!” said Yue Xiaoqian excitedly . Although she was veiled, her smile had turned her eyes into beautiful crescent moons .
Long Chen nodded . This result was excellent . If he could obtain more Heavenly Dao Fruits, then more of the original devil race’s experts could roam the Martial Heaven Continent .
“Xiaoqian, how much of your true power can you release with the Heavenly Dao energy?” asked Long Chen . This was an important point .
“Around eighty percent . ”
“Just eighty percent?” Long Chen couldn’t help being disappointed .
“That’s already amazing . This Heavenly Dao energy is even better than what I originally thought . When I tried it, I found that other than my core divine abilities, many of the techniques of my original devil race can be used with it . Although their effect is slightly lower, we don’t need to be so helpless when fighting now . Furthermore, other than our strongest core divine abilities, even some magical arts can be used without revealing our devil mark . It’ll be extremely safe .
“Previously, we had to rely on devil cores to deceive the Heavenly Daos . We couldn’t fight outside, because once we did, it would exhaust our core energy, and we wouldn’t be able to replenish it without returning to our Skyscraping World . The more we used, the more dangerous it would be .
“That’s also why I always ran when I encountered enemies . Against those Blazing Wolf race’s experts, I really had no way to handle them . It was fortunate that you came, or I might have been exposed . But now I can use Heavenly Dao energy, and I can replenish it whenever I want . It feels delightful!” Yue Xiaoqian’s excitement still hadn’t lessened in the slightest .
She had always been unable to fight back against enemies . That was extremely depressing . But now she was finally free of it .
“Then that’s good . Is there anyone else from your race that entered the Immemorial Path with you?” asked Long Chen .
“Yes . This time, thirty-seven of us entered . They’re all our race’s elites,” said Yue Xiaoqian .
“Can you find them?”
“We have a secret art to communicate . ”
“Good . Then I’ll give you some Heavenly Dao Fruits, and you distribute them . Otherwise, it’ll be too dangerous for them,” said Long Chen .
“You have more?!” Yue Xiaoqian was startled . How could he have so many heaven-defying fruits? “Okay, I’ll immediately gather them . ”
Yue Xiaoqian suddenly formed hand seals, and a mark appeared on her forehead . That was the Devil character . But that Devil character had a faint golden glow to it, and it appeared sacred and hallowed . When it lit up her face, she seemed like an immortal .
Six hours later, someone new arrived . It was a handsome man with shoulder-length hair . He flew in front of Yue Xiaoqian and bowed according to an extremely ancient etiquette . “Greetings sacred daughter, greetings senior Long Chen . ”
Yue Xiaoqian returned the etiquette and said, “It’s been hard on you . Did you run into any dangers?”
“Thank you for your care . Disciple only ran into some minor troubles with nothing worth mentioning . ”
Seeing that Long Chen was a bit dumbfounded, Yue Xiaoqian smiled and said, “You don’t need to find it strange . Everyone in the original devil race recognizes you now . ”
“Many thanks senior Long Chen for your benevolence . Otherwise, there would have been no way for us to leave the Skyscraping World and serve our race!” That person once more bowed toward Long Chen .
Long Chen felt extremely awkward . He hastily cupped his fists in return . That strange bowing form was extremely particular, and he wasn’t able to imitate it .
Yue Xiaoqian laughed, “Long Chen, you don’t need to be so courteous . ”
Long Chen nodded and directly gave that person a rank two Heavenly Dao Fruit . That person glanced at Yue Xiaoqian and saw her nod before he received it .
The second person quickly arrived after the first . Then the third and fourth . Long Chen was startled by this efficiency .
In just one day, the majority of them had already gathered . They had to have some kind of secret technique that allowed them to cross the wider abysses, or there was no way they could have gotten here so quickly .
Once everyone was gathered, there were only thirty-two of them . Sadness appeared in Yue Xiaoqian’s eyes . Those other five people had clearly fallen .
“Sacred daughter, don’t be aggrieved . They died for the race, and they were our honorable warriors!” comforted a woman .
Yue Xiaoqian nodded . The reason why she was so sad was because those fallen warriors hadn’t died because they hadn’t been as strong as their opponents . They had died to keep the secret of the original devil race, dying because they hadn’t revealed their true power .
To not be exposed, they had chosen to die . That was what made Yue Xiaoqian feel the worst . They were true warriors worthy of respect .
Three days later, all of them had consumed the Heavenly Dao Fruits and become rank two Celestials . They all had another kind of energy in their bodies that made them incredibly excited . Their gratefulness towards Long Chen reached a new level .
“Long Chen, do you want them to travel alone again or come with us?” asked Yue Xiaoqian .
“Staying with us is too dangerous . ” Long Chen shook his head . Although they were all experts, his enemies were too powerful . They hadn’t reached that level yet .
Although they had consumed the Heavenly Dao Fruits and used the peak grade Heaven Source Extract, they weren’t on the level of Yue Xiaoqian . Thus, they couldn’t fight alongside him .
“Before you leave, I want to say a few words . If you do run into danger, use your full power to kill your way out . Even if that exposes your identity, it’s fine,” said Long Chen .
“Long Chen…” Yue Xiaoqian and the other original devil race’s members were all startled .
“Since we’ve chosen to be allies, I treat you as my brothers and sisters . Your lives are the most precious . Even if you have to expose yourself, that’s not important . The most important thing is for you to live . Even if the heavens collapse, I will be there to help you carry them . Your lives aren’t able to impact the big picture, so don’t pointlessly sacrifice them . Alright, you can all go . I wish you good fortune!”
Huge waves rose in the hearts of the original devil race’s members . Although his voice was calm without immense passion, it revealed his confidence . At the same time, the care within his voice warmed their hearts .
They once more bowed toward him and went in their own directions . They needed to find more opportunities and resources for their original devil race so that they could grow .
“Thank you, Long Chen . ” Yue Xiaoqian’s eyes were slightly reddened . She also didn’t want her people to die, but she didn’t dare to say the same words that he had . She didn’t possess that confidence .
“You’ve thanked me so much, are you really not going to consider giving your heart to me?” teased Long Chen .
“A nice thought . ” Yue Xiaoqian lightly hit him and turned away, wiping away her tears . She was completely red .
After some light teasing of a beauty, Long Chen opened his map . The two of them were currently in the middle section of the eastern region of the Immemorial Path .
If they continued forward, they would reach another huge block that was almost the same size as the Ten Thousand Beast Forest . But this huge block was actually a castle .
That area was a trial region that had to be traversed in order to get deeper into the eastern region . However, it could no longer be referred to as a trial region, as it had completely broken down . It was the only huge ruins in the eastern region .
“Xiaoqian, let’s go . I’ll bring you to a very lively place . ” Long Chen smiled . He could run into many ‘friends’ there .
