Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts

Chapter 5945 Devil Burial Abyss

“Have you really thought this through? Are you sure about this?” warned the Earth Cauldron. “Even with those puppets, facing a Sovereign Lord is extremely dangerous. You could wait. In two months at most, the spiritual qi of heaven and earth will peak. That would be the perfect time to advance to the Human Emperor realm. By then, you could kill him without using those puppets. There’s no need for you to take this risk.”

The Earth Cauldron was suggesting Long Chen to wait until he broke through before confronting the Devil Eye Water Lily race. Revenge could wait.

However, Long Chen shook his head. “I have a feeling that this heavenly tribulation will be more dangerous than ever. I won’t be able to use it to kill my enemies like I had in the past or use them to help me through it.”

In the past, the arrival of a heavenly tribulation excited him because he knew he would step into an even higher realm afterward. He would see an even vaster sky.

But this time was different.

As the tribulation drew near, he felt suffocated—he could even smell death in the air.

When the nine heavens had first opened, the Heavenly Daos seemed to bless Long Chen. But as the spiritual qi surged, it felt like invisible hands twisted the flow of the Heavenly Daos.

That was why Long Chen had scoffed when Li Chunyang claimed to be acting on behalf of the heavens. If Li Chunyang didn’t know the Daos were being tampered with, then he was a fool. If he did know but still said that, then he was a conman.

And last time, the Brahma line had interfered with his grudge against Qin Keqing. He couldn’t help but suspect a hidden connection between the Zither Sect and the Brahma line.

In any case, that kind of person—whether fool or fraud—still dared to act like a sage, declaring himself a savior of the world. It irritated Long Chen.

“I’m going to find a quiet place. I’ll summon the Dragon Blood Battle Armor. I need to contact the Dragon Sovereign,” said Long Chen.

This time, if he wanted to get revenge against Lian Sanqiang, he couldn’t do it on his own. But he wasn’t alone—he had many hot-blooded brothers ready to fight by his side.

“Don’t disturb it. Isn’t your goal to reunite with your Dragonblood Legion? I know where they are,” said the Earth Cauldron.

“You know? Excellent!”

Hearing that, Long Chen was delighted. Then there was no need for him to trouble the Dragon Sovereign.

“Let me be bothersome one more time. Are you sure you want to do this?” asked the Earth Cauldron.

Long Chen smiled. “Senior, you only know my strength. But you’ve underestimated the power of my brothers. You’ve watched me grow step by step, but they’ve been training just as hard. I’m not the only one who found fortune in the Heaven Vein Mystic Realm. When you see them, you won’t be worried anymore.”

The Earth Cauldron fell silent. Then, a place name appeared in Long Chen’s mind:

Devil Burial Abyss.

Without hesitation, Long Chen set out. Within a day, he underwent over ten spatial teleportations—each a supreme transmission that cost an immense sum.

Fortunately, he still had the wealth he’d plundered from the Soaring Dragon Company. After turning it over to the Huayun Trading Company, he had plenty of funds. Otherwise, this kind of express travel would’ve been impossible.

After the long-distance transports, he followed with a few short-range ones. As he neared his destination, the surrounding devil qi grew denser. The laws of heaven and earth here were murky and distorted.

If the Earth Cauldron weren’t so reliable, Long Chen would’ve thought they were lost.

With the final spatial transportation, Long Chen arrived in a complete wasteland. There were very few cultivators here. After all, no one liked to stay in such a place.

Confirming his direction, he flew out of the city and deeper into the barren wasteland. When no one was around, the Earth Cauldron emerged and released a wave of divine light, enveloping Long Chen and making him vanish.

When Long Chen reappeared, he found himself within an enormous abyss. Black qi roiled beneath him, thick with the miasma of decay and corpses. It was toxic enough that even a Divine Emperor without resistance might not survive it.

Long Chen dove straight in.

The moment he touched the miasma, goosebumps rose over his skin. The toxicity was worse than he’d expected. Even with his pores sealed, it still invaded his body.

Long Chen summoned his dragon scales, covering his body and protecting it from the miasma.

Just as he did, he splashed into a pool of black later. This black pool was even more corrosive, corroding his dragon scales instantly.

“Pretty toxic!”

Long Chen clicked his tongue. This water bypassed a cultivator’s protective divine light and attacked their body directly. Even his soul started to ache.

A Divine Emperor wouldn’t last a single breath in here.

Long Chen gritted his teeth and dove down. An incense stick’s time later, he finally noticed a strange energy flowing within this pool.

“The dragon race’s aura!”

Long Chen was delighted to sense this energy fluctuation. So their Dragon Domain was actually located beneath the black pool. The miasma and black water were the best natural barriers.

However, thinking about how the stubborn and powerful dragon race was forced to hide beneath the black water, he felt a wave of grief. For such an ancient, dignified race to end up like this…

As Long Chen reached the barrier, the black water around him started to ripple. It was like an alarm had been triggered.

A powerful divine sense instantly locked onto him, and his dragon blood surged in response.

Then the water swirled into a whirlpool. There was a gate within it.

Clearly, the dragon race here had noticed him. Sensing his dragon blood, they didn’t attack and instead guided him.

He stepped through the gate, and warm sunlight greeted him.

A blue sky, drifting clouds, endless mountains and rivers—the world within was vibrant and full of life.

Then, dozens of young disciples surrounded Long Chen, all of them on guard.

“Who are you?” asked one of them.

Just as Long Chen was about to reply, one of them cried out, “Big brother Long Chen! It’s big brother Long Chen!”

Long Chen blinked. He didn’t even recognize this person.

But the others all gasped in shock.

“You’re Long Chen? The boss of those monsters?!”

“Monsters? What monsters?” Long Chen was even more confused.
