Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts Chapter 1361

Chapter 1361

A black light suddenly whistled over at the chasing golden phoenix .

BOOM!

Huge ripples appeared in s.p.a.ce as the world shook . The phoenix let out a mournful cry as it was sent flying into the distance . A black pot flew back, and Long Chen caught it .

The golden phoenix was tumbling through the air, seeming to have lost its balance . It smashed into a mountain, and that mountain was instantly ignited .

“As usual, the pot is mighty,” praised Long Chen . Even the Heaven Incinerating Flame couldn’t damage the pot . During their collision, Long Chen had seen some of the rust on its bottom isolate the flame energy .

Seeing that the pot couldn’t be damaged by the Heaven Incinerating Flame, Long Chen had an urge to chase after it to see if he could subdue it . But he saw that it wasn’t injured at all . It was like it really had just been struck by a pot .

After a moment’s hesitation, Long Chen didn’t go after it . Instead, he turned and fled . His brain told him that a greedy heart never had a good ending .

Long Chen didn’t have any a.s.surance in subduing the golden phoenix . Even with the pot, his chances of victory were essentially zero .

Moreover, even if he could beat it, he wouldn’t be able to capture it . With Huo Long’s current power, there was no way for it to eat such a tough piece of meat . The difference between them was too great .

So Long Chen wisely chose to scram . This golden phoenix wasn’t something he could currently provoke .

As he rushed off, he heard furious bird cries from behind him . The phoenix was probably complaining about how he had gotten away .

Long Chen rushed off for several hours before finding a gorge to hide himself in and rest . He looked at Huo Long, who was a bit depressed .

The Heaven Incinerating Flame had exhausted a great deal of its core energy . Just seeing it like this distressed Long Chen .

“Don’t worry, I’ll help you recover . We can find some weaker Earth Flames to devour, and once you’re strong enough, we’ll go get revenge against it . ” Long Chen summoned Huo Long and patted it on its head comfortingly .

Long Chen began to advance slower . Although he didn’t change his general direction, now he was constantly searching for Earth Flames for Huo Long to devour .

Fortunately, Huo Long had sharp senses and could easily sense the presence of Earth Flame Spirit Beasts . In just half a day, Huo Long had devoured four weaker Earth Flame Spirit Beasts, allowing it to recover the majority of its core energy .

In order to increase their efficiency, after recovering, Huo Long summoned three split bodies, which went off to search for even more Earth Flame Spirit Beasts .

Long Chen suddenly became ecstatic . Huo Long’s split bodies were all true bodies and possessed their own Spiritual Strength . They could handle danger and fight on their own .

Long Chen worked together with Huo Long for a whole day, allowing it to devour seven powerful Earth Flame Spirit Beasts . Two of them had decent rankings that allowed Huo Long to not only fully recover, but also grow stronger .

Long Chen had Huo Long release its eight split bodies . Those split bodies were to go out on their own and hunt Earth Flame Spirit Beasts while Huo Long’s true body stayed with Long Chen .

Huo Long’s split bodies had half the power of the true body, but their intelligence was the same . As long as they were careful, they could continuously devour Earth Flames and grow stronger .

During this time, Long Chen would go after the Nirvana Scripture . They couldn’t waste any time . Huo Long’s split bodies had sharp senses and could sense danger from a great distance .

Even if four of the split bodies were eliminated, as long as the other four returned after devouring Earth Flames, the gains would definitely make up for the losses .

Following Long Chen’s directions, eight small flame dragons split up, while Long Chen rushed into the depths of the Heaven Dragon Flame Region with Huo Long’s true body .

This time, Long Chen didn’t dare to randomly rush around . He had Huo Long go completely straight because he didn’t want to run into anything as monstrous as the Heaven Incinerating Flame again .

When they ran into weaker Earth Flame Spirit Beasts, Huo Long would conveniently devour them . If they were equally matched or stronger, they would go around them .

One month could be described as a long time or a short time . However, since Long Chen had to find the tablet within this period, he had to rush .

When Long Chen finally arrived at the place the Pill Fairy had marked, he saw that it was a land of red dirt, which emitted flame fluctuations .

There was a canyon ahead, and upon entering, he went through nine turns before seeing a huge stone tablet .

The tablet was so huge that there was no way to clearly see its complete body . Light revolved over it, while it emitted a primeval aura .

Seeing this tablet, Long Chen’s heart suddenly turned calm . Everything else in the world fell away, and the only thing left was this stone tablet .

He slowly walked over . His hand lightly touched its inscriptions . For some unknown reason, his hand was trembling, and he suddenly realized he was crying .

“Why does this tablet seem so familiar…” Long Chen lightly brushed against the inscriptions . It felt like there were some sealed memories in his head, but he couldn’t recall them .

“You’ve finally come . ”

Just at this moment, a voice rang out in Long Chen’s mind . Light enveloped him from the tablet, and he suddenly appeared in a starry sky .

There were stars above and below him . He was standing within s.p.a.ce . Here, it felt like the flow of time was constantly changing . He didn’t even know what exactly he was feeling .

“Can you turn around and give me a good look at you?” A voice rang out . It was a very gentle voice, and it sounded like heavenly music . However, it also sounded extremely distant, so distant that it was as if it came from a different s.p.a.cetime .

Long Chen slowly turned . He saw an illusory figure behind him that he was able to see clearly . It was a peerless beauty . Ripples floated out of her in a mysterious and profound manner .

Even after seeing her clearly, he suddenly felt like he could no longer see her so clearly . He was unable to sense her existence .

The things that gave him the greatest impression were her limpid eyes . Her eyes were serene and kind, making him feel a burst of warmth .

“Senior, you…” Long Chen opened his mouth, but his voice was somewhat choked with sobs . His tears still continued flowing out of his control .

The woman sighed sadly . “You are you, you are not you . You are one, you are not one . ”

The voice was transmitted into his ears, yet Long Chen found that it wasn’t a true voice, but a special kind of energy being read by his divine sense .

Although they were facing each other, Long Chen felt like they were isolated by a boundless s.p.a.ce, or perhaps by boundless time . She didn’t come from the present . She came from the past, or perhaps the future .

Just what was going on? Why did this woman feel so intimate to him, yet also fill him with sorrow?

“You are…”

Long Chen suddenly recalled an image . Within the void, a peerless expert with nine stars in his eyes and a divine ring behind him fought fiercely against his opponent .

At that time, there had been a person behind him, but Long Chen had only gotten a glance . However, he felt that it was a woman .

For some reason, he connected this woman with that woman .

“Senior, can you hear my voice?” asked Long Chen .

“Nine stars against the heavens . The heavens collapse, G.o.ds fall, and blood dyes the sky red . The peak of power? The peak of the Dao? To defy the heavens, is this the final result?” The woman muttered to herself as she looked at Long Chen .

The stars in the void suddenly began to shake . They started to rapidly move through the air as they trembled .

“Perhaps it’s right, perhaps it’s wrong . Whether it’s right or wrong, what harm is there in it? You will always have that unbending nature . I can only silently stand beside you . ” The woman suddenly reached and held Long Chen’s cheeks .

However, her hands were unable to touch him . They simply floated above him as her body began to fade .

“Can I ask who…”

That woman didn’t seem to hear him . She vanished and Long Chen’s heart turned cold . He didn’t know what had just happened .

Just at this moment, countless runes lit up around him . One after another, they entered his head .

Chanting shook the starry sky . Long Chen’s heart jumped, as the voice of the person chanting was the voice of the woman just now .

Each syllable, each inflection, each bit of it was hallowed and profound . As the chanting continued, the world began to spin . The stars rose and fell . It was like the world was following the scripture .

The total scripture wasn’t long . It only had a few dozen syllables to it, but just this short scripture contained boundless profundities . It formed a never-ending cycle with no end or beginning .

Yet, despite how profound it was, Long Chen felt it to be very familiar, as if he had long since mastered it but simply forgotten it . Now that he heard it again, he immediately comprehended its essence .

Suddenly, the scene around him faded, and he once more appeared in the Heaven Dragon Flame Region .

Just as he reappeared, the huge stone tablet suddenly seemed to go through millions and millions of years of erosion . It crumbled .

The tablet fell to pieces, and the pieces then faded into dust, vanis.h.i.+ng . It was like it had never existed .

Long Chen just stared, unable to calm himself . It seemed that he had touched one of the secrets of this world . An unprecedented feeling of crisis filled him . He found it hard to breathe .

“I can’t bother with this now . Since I’ve obtained the second volume of the Nirvana Scripture, it’s time to remove this d.a.m.n curse . ” Long Chen took a deep breath and slowly formed a hand seal .
