Nine Star Hegemon Body Art - Chapter 5377 Heaven Soul Blood Curse
Chapter 5377 Heaven Soul Blood Curse
“A zombie!” screamed Long Chen.
A claw suddenly shot out from the coffin, lunging at Long Chen and startling him into sidestepping hastily. The void exploded in its grip and quickly went still. Long Chen then wiped off some cold sweat from his head. Mo Nian would have handled this better, given his knack for “archeology”.
A corpse on this level would never decay; its physical body was not withered at all, and its combat instincts still existed.
When Long Chen kicked the coffin open, the shift in airflow triggered the corpse’s reflexes, causing it to instinctively launch an attack. Though soulless, its body retained ingrained instincts, resulting in this automatic strike.
Seeing the corpse no longer moving, Long Chen carefully probed it and then pulled it into the primal chaos space.
From then on, he opened each coffin from a safe distance. Fortunately, no more “zombie” reactions occurred. He transferred all eighteen bodies into the primal chaos space, about to place them on the black soil when the Earth Cauldron suddenly interrupted.
“Have you forgotten something?”
“Forgotten something?” Long Chen was baffled, glancing at the coffins with their carved devil blood runes, which he couldn’t decipher. He wasn’t sure what use they had, if any. He didn’t feel like these things had any value to him.
“Think harder,” the Earth Cauldron urged.
Long Chen was baffled. Had he really forgotten something? But even after a long time pondering, he couldn’t tell what the Earth Cauldron meant.
The Earth Cauldron finally said, “Last time, on the Fiend Blood Battlefield, what did you lose?”
“What did I lose? You mean the Silver Wing Heaven Devil puppets? But—aiya!”
Only then did it hit Long Chen. He had brainlessly tossed six corpses into the black soil and couldn’t pull them back. Long Chen stamped his foot in frustration.
These were the corpses of half-step Devil Emperors, and Long Chen had forgotten that he knew the green parrot’s curse art: the Heaven Soul Blood Curse, a technique used for controlling corpses just like this. If Long Chen could control a half-step Devil Emperor, how helpful would that be?
These blood devils were no match for the Silver Wing Heaven Devils in raw power, but their physical bodies remained perfectly intact, uncorroded by time. If Long Chen could gain control over them, they would unleash devastating force.
Most importantly, they still had plenty of energy in them. Rather than expending all their strength in a single attack, these bodies could be used continuously. Luckily, Long Chen still had twelve of them left. He quickly transferred them from the primal chaos space to his spiritual space and used his Spiritual Strength to imprint his mark on each. With this branding complete, he could use the Heaven Soul Blood Curse to control them fully.
At this moment, the heavenly tribulation intensified, and an endless stream of lightning beasts rained down from above.
Seeing this scene, the Hidden Dragon Legion stood firm, their formations growing more cohesive and adaptive with each strike. This allowed them to withstand the fierce onslaught.
Lei Linger had transformed into millions of lightning dragons, swimming through the air and devouring the lightning runes that scattered whenever the Hidden Dragon warriors destroyed a beast.
After taking the corpses, Long Chen spread his divine sense and suddenly swung Evilmoon.
BOOM!
The entire mountain split apart. Half of it crumbled, while the other half remained intact, revealing a vast cave with two treasuries inside. The first one was filled with white bone divine weapons— the innate weapons of bone devils. Only blood devils who had reached at least the Emperor realm could leave their bone weapon here, so this cache held a formidable collection of Emperor-level weapons.
The second treasury was filled with devil crystals. However, they were golden instead of blue. Only pureblooded blood devils whose cultivation bases had reached the Emperor realm could condense these devil crystals. They were invaluable to the Fiend Wind Blood Devil race, as heavenly geniuses would absorb these crystals to break through bottlenecks in their cultivation. Together, the bone weapons and golden devil crystals represented the race’s most prized resources.
Fortunately, the Hidden Dragon warriors remained focused on battling the lightning beasts. If they had seen the golden devil crystals, their attention would have shifted immediately, weakening their combat efficiency.
Long Chen waved his hand, gathering them all. He directly tossed all the bone weapons into the black soil, and they released an amazing amount of life energy.
In an instant, the Fusang Trees’ Golden Crows soared around the branches like miniature golden suns, thriving as their power reached unprecedented heights.
“Hahaha, I’ve really struck gold this time!” Long Chen laughed excitedly as he sensed the aura of the Golden Crows.
Long Chen discovered that once the half-step Devil Emperor corpses were absorbed, the released life energy triggered a powerful transformation in the Fusang Trees and Golden Crows, whose aura now matched that of a Heaven Saint. As pure Golden Crows, their auras were as vast as the sea, their true power unfathomable.
The thought of Huo Linger commanding this formidable Golden Crow army sent a thrill through Long Chen. If they could grow to the Emperor realm, who in existence could possibly stand against her?
As the primal chaos space’s flame god, Huo Linger controlled everything within it. She could direct the Golden Crows to fight at her command or even draw upon their power for herself. Long Chen couldn’t imagine what would happen if she compressed the full power of these Golden Crows into her. Just what kind of terrifying force would she unleash?
Meanwhile, beneath the Heavenly Dao Tree, the mysterious vine was flourishing. It had sprouted four leaves and reached three inches in height. Black qi continued to swirl around it, with black lightning streaking inside.
It was growing rapidly. Though its aura was dark and sinister, as long as there was enough life energy, it wouldn’t suppress the other vegetation.
Strangely, whenever it sensed Long Chen, its aura would soften, as if it had already accepted him as its master.
“Grow strong, all of you! When the time comes, we’ll conquer the nine heavens and ten lands!” Long Chen exclaimed, clenching his fists.
Time... all he needed was time. As long as he had enough time to grow, why would he fear someone like the Silver Hair Void Crusher?
When Long Chen’s mind left the primal chaos space, the heavenly tribulation had ended. His aura had leaped to the Earth Saint realm, and the Eternal runes in his Dantian got even closer to his Spirit Root, almost touching.
Long Chen felt like they would touch once he reached the Heaven Saint realm. But as for what would happen when they touched, no one knew.
As the last of the tribulation clouds faded, Tang Wan-er activated the divine wind transportation formation she had acquired from the Wind God Sea Pavilion. Using the Wind Dominion Pearl’s power, they were instantly transported back.
The moment they arrived, they spotted Feng Xinyue waiting for them.
