Nine Star Hegemon Body Art - Chapter 5407 If You’ve Got Nothing Else Then Just Die
Chapter 5407 If You’ve Got Nothing Else, Then Just Die
Lei Linger stood like a goddess of lightning, guarding Long Chen with an overwhelming thunderforce. She didn’t even need to do anything herself. Just a trace of her thunderforce domain’s power was enough to wipe out these blind experts.
Now, Lei Linger possessed the power to fight on her own. She had grown quickly by absorbing the heavenly tribulation energy released by the primal chaos space. After all, some of the devil creatures they defeated had carried Emperor-level lightning in their bodies, and through absorbing it, Lei Linger had reached new heights.
Let alone a single Ye Linfeng, even if Long Chen had faced two, he wouldn’t have been concerned.
Long Chen hadn’t used Lei Linger or Huo Linger’s power although the two of them were his strongest helpers. Even the Silver Hair Void Crusher had suffered in their hands, so either one of them could have easily matched Ye Linfeng in battle.
Even while the other side was cheating, Long Chen didn’t use their power. The reason for that was to test his own power after it was transformed by the Radiant World Star Crystal.
To his surprise, even after such a long period of adjustment, his meridians were still injured when he exerted more energy, causing them to tear.
To use the Earth Cauldron’s words, he was too impetuous and rash. The cauldron argued that Ye Linfeng was already weaker than him, and it made no sense for him to risk himself in a prolonged fight rather than using Lei Linger or Huo Linger to end it swiftly.
However, Long Chen had his own reasons for personally killing Ye Linfeng. The first reason was simply because that fellow’s mouth was too hateful. If Long Chen hadn’t personally killed him, he wouldn’t have been able to resolve the hatred in his heart.
Another reason was that he had to get used to the Radiant World Star Crystal’s power sooner or later. So, why not do it earlier? Even if he was injured as a result, it wasn’t something bad.
After being modified by the Radiant World Star Crystal, his astral energy became even stronger. But using it put immense pressure on his meridians.
To wield it effectively, he saw two options: either somehow communicate with the crystal to soften its energy, which seemed impossible, or fortify his meridians through repeated strain and healing. With every repair, they would become tougher.
During this process, he had to slowly figure out how to control it so that his wild astral energy became gentle. That would be the only way to unleash his full power without injuring himself.
However, all things needed to be done one step at a time. While Long Chen had been a bit rash, with this one step done, the future path would be easier to walk. It could be said that he had profited from this battle.
Although the Earth Cauldron grumbled at him, Long Chen simply smiled and waved it off.
After all, the Earth Cauldron was an item-spirit, so its way of thinking was rigid. On the other hand, its master had never walked the conventional path; there was no way to have their lines of thought match perfectly.
While the Earth Cauldron grumbled, Evilmoon sharply defended Long Chen’s actions, calling them the actions of a true man. After all, if a man could still remain rational when their woman was repeatedly threatened, he wouldn’t even be human.
According to Evilmoon, a man should act this way—going all-out against someone when they crossed his bottom line. Thinking could be done afterward.
Evilmoon also said, “So what if it’s brash? Being brash takes courage. It’s the weak who don’t even dare to be brash. Being brash isn’t a flaw. The real flaw is lacking the courage to be brash. Without that courage, how would you ever have the strength to face Lord Brahma? Or to challenge the entire world?”
Long Chen was a bit surprised. Who would have thought that Evilmoon could say something so thought-provoking? It was actually very reasonable and profound.
For the first time, the Earth Cauldron had no comeback and fell silent. Seeing this, Long Chen couldn’t help but find it funny. He also felt a surprising new level of understanding with Evilmoon since its transformation.
Did this have something to do with the last battle? Long Chen thought.
Long Chen recalled the peculiar sensation he’d had with Evilmoon during the fight—a deeper connection, almost beyond words.
With Lei Linger protecting him, Long Chen peacefully healed and examined the transformations in his body. But in the outside world, rivers of blood had formed as a full slaughter was in motion.
Lei Linger wasn’t merely defending Long Chen from attackers. She had summoned a lightning barrier around the entire battlefield, enclosing an immense area.
Although her power was dispersed over such a large space, even this “weaker” barrier was impenetrable for the average expert. Only the peak experts could break through it, but they were already locked in combat against Tang Wan-er and the eight divine retainers. They were bitterly holding on and didn’t even have a chance to run. If they tried to, they would be turning their backs to their enemies and die in an instant.
At this point, they were caught in a dilemma. They couldn’t beat their enemies in combat, but they also couldn’t flee, their cries and pleas for mercy filled the air. However, the Hidden Dragon warriors had long since steeled their hearts. They felt no mercy and showed none; their swords moved with cold precision, extinguishing lives one after another.
Countless enemies tried to take advantage of the chaos to flee, but the lightning barrier blocked them. Even when they attacked it with all their might, they couldn’t do shit. Some of them were directly killed by the barrier’s thunderforce.
They were like birds trapped in a cage; all that awaited them was death. As they cried and pleaded for mercy, they even begged for help from the outside world.
However, the experts outside of the Wind Domain Battlefield’s barrier could only roar, unable to do anything else.
"Ye Lingkong! Is your Wind God Sea Pavilion really prepared to fight all of us to the death? You’d go this far?!” threatened one old elder.
Ye Lingkong simply stood there, his arms crossing in front of his chest as he chewed on a stalk of grass lazily. It was as if what was happening in the barrier had nothing to do with him.
Ye Lingkong didn’t even look at this roaring elder. He slowly raised his hand and took the stalk of grass from his mouth, walking away.
“What does that mean?!” roared the elder.
Ye Lingkong paused, glancing back with a faint smile. “While I was drinking with Long Chen, he told me something I rather like. I think I’ll pass it on to you.”
“If you’ve got anything else up your sleeve, use it.” Ye Lingkong’s eyes gleamed. “If not—then just die.”
