Chapter 5374 Terrifying Vine
A soft shoot sprouted from the mysterious vine. It was only two inches long, with two tender leaves, yet its color was startling—pitch-black and surrounded by intense death qi. Black energy swirled around the shoot, forming a small cloud the size of a fist, and it was flickering with black lightning.
Long Chen’s heart trembled at the sight. This black lightning held a potent aura of annihilation, eerily similar to his heavenly tribulation’s power.
“What strange lightning. It’s fundamentally different from the lightning of heavenly tribulation,” said Lei Linger, attracted by the lightning in this tiny shoot.
“How is it different?” Long Chen asked.
“Heavenly tribulation lightning is made of countless types of thunderforce mixed together, including one similar to this. But this lightning is pure destruction—it carries no other laws. It’s incredibly refined, more so than the annihilation lightning I’ve absorbed. The difference in purity is astonishing,” Lei Linger replied.
As a lightning spirit, Lei Linger had unparalleled insight into lightning, yet even she was intrigued. It was her first time seeing this kind of lightning, and she was extremely curious.
Lei Linger told Long Chen not to underestimate this tiny lightning as its destructive power was shocking. If harnessed, it could even kill a Human Emperor.
“It can kill a Human Emperor?” Long Chen jumped in shock. The black lightning was thinner than a strand of hair, but it could kill a Human Emperor? That was terrifying.
The soft shoot seemed alive, curiously surveying its surroundings through the black qi. When it noticed Long Chen, the black cloud quivered, and the little leaves waved as if reaching out to him, stirring a strange feeling of connection.
Long Chen felt its emotional fluctuations and was taken aback. Was this the first time something in his primal chaos space seemed to recognize him?
Slowly, he reached out to touch the black qi. As his fingers made contact, he felt a chill that sent shivers down his spine.
“This death qi is unbelievably pure,” Long Chen muttered in surprise.
Just what kind of origin did this mysterious vine have? A newly born shoot actually possessed such a terrifying death qi. If it spread, it could probably infect an entire world’s laws, forever turning it into a world of death.
Other than sensing death qi, Long Chen also felt a prickling pain when his fingers came into contact with the black qi. Lei Linger was right: this lightning was nothing like he had seen. It could pose a lethal threat to even two-vein Emperors.
Gently, he placed his fingers on the soft shoot, and it responded by wrapping its tiny leaves around them. Long Chen could now sense its spirit more clearly. It felt like a newborn baby, and it actually seemed to view Long Chen as family. Long Chen could sense its pure heart.
Although its outer appearance was frightening, its inner heart was as pure as a blank piece of paper. Long Chen was moved. If nurtured, this vine might grow into an extraordinary existence.
Originally, Long Chen was worried about it. If it already possessed this much power at this size, what would he do once it grew up and he couldn’t control it?
However, after sensing its inner emotions, Long Chen relaxed and withdrew his hand. In response, the soft shoot shuddered as if trying to express something to him.
Long Chen quickly extended his hand again, but he still couldn’t understand what it was trying to say. He just saw it shaking but had no idea what it was trying to say.
Staring for a while, Long Chen suddenly realized that it was reaching toward the black soil. Intrigued, he carefully uprooted the vine and moved it closer to the black soil.
Long Chen kept a close eye on it as he moved it, finding that it grew more and more excited as he brought it closer to the black soil.
“It’s not afraid of the black soil?” Long Chen was surprised.
Upon reaching the boundary of the black soil, the vine grew increasingly animated, tugging toward a particular direction—the Heavenly Dao Tree.
When Long Chen placed it beneath the tree, it finally settled down. To his surprise, the black soil, which usually devoured everything, left this mysterious vine untouched. Instead, he found that the mysterious vine seemed to become even more energetic after being placed in the black soil. Seeing it thriving, Long Chen clicked his tongue in wonder.
The black soil had always been a mystery to Long Chen. At first, it formed a circular area with the Heavenly Dao Tree at its center. Later on, the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Tree moved in, and the black soil actually split in half.
The central zone of the primal chaos space actually resembled a Taiji diagram, with two Yin and Yang fish inhabiting it. The area around the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Tree thrummed with life, as countless medicinal herbs gravitated toward it. In stark contrast, the side of the Heavenly Dao Tree remained a desolate expanse of black soil, devoid of life.
Aside from the Heavenly Dao Tree, nothing else could survive in the black soil. However, today, a mysterious vine had germinated there. Remarkably, even the Heavenly Dao Tree did not seem to reject it.
Seeing the vine growing happily here, Long Chen decided to let it stay there for now. He sensed that this tiny shoot could grow into a terrifying existence. If nurtured properly, it might become a supreme weapon.
When his mind left the primal chaos space, the battle outside had ended, so he gathered the corpses and quickly left with everyone.
After all, they were in the Endless Desolation, where countless unknown threats appeared randomly. To be safe, it was best to strike quickly and then retreat.
The Hidden Dragon Legion relentlessly pursued devil creatures, with Long Chen guiding them and selecting various devil tribes as targets. This strategy led to a rapid increase in their combat power and teamwork.
After twenty days of battle, Long Chen’s primal chaos space was finally teeming with life energy. However, he knew this state wouldn’t last long; without ongoing replenishment, it could quickly revert to its previous desolation.
As the days passed, Long Chen realized that the hunt needed to conclude soon. Clenching his teeth, he rallied his companions, saying, “Alright, sisters, let’s go for a big target!"
