This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
“Ignorant human, you are courting death!”Seeing Long Chen look down on them, the Earth Devils, especially the group of two-vein Emperors, were visibly angry.
The muscular, winged Earth Devil said, “This place is the graveyard of your human race. Countless fools like you have died here over the years, yet you still don’t understand even with death at hand.”
Long Chen chuckled, “I was right. You’re guarding this place to stop anyone from entering the Endless Desolation. But after today, you won’t need to.”
“Why is that?” asked the Earth Devil leader, not comprehending Long Chen’s meaning.
“Because you’re all going to die here today,” Long Chen declared calmly as he continued to walk forward.
“What arrogance! I can’t take it any longer! Die!” one of the Earth Devils finally lost his patience and charged toward Long Chen, his iron claw-like palm striking with incredible speed.
This Earth Devil had black skin, tree-branch-like limbs, and a long tail. Devil Qi erupted from him as his hand stretched out toward Long Chen, twisting the space around him. This pressure was even more intense than what Gold Rhino had produced.
Long Chen’s fighting spirit blazed. His cultivation base had advanced rapidly, and the Eight Star Battle Armor had also evolved. Hence, he needed a worthy opponent to test this newfound strength. Without hesitation, an eight-colored divine ring appeared behind him, and stars lit up on his hand as he unleashed his own attack.
Palm met claw, unleashing a wave of violent energy that shook the surroundings, yet neither Long Chen nor the Earth Devil moved a muscle. The two were perfectly evenly matched, and the sheer force of their clash caused heaven and earth to tremble.
As expected, the qi is the foundation. Qi is what circulates my power and blood. When my Root Qi is strong enough, it can even ignite my starry sea. If it weren’t for this attack, I wouldn’t have even realized how important the Root Qi was.
In his last exchange, Long Chen could sense the clump of Root Qi in his Dantian sending an unending stream of energy to his palm.
.
The Root Qi was something that only appeared after Long Chen had taken his Spirit Root back from Long Aotian. Although his Spirit Root had seemed damaged, with each breakthrough, it had gradually recovered. This Root Qi was nourished by his improved power and finally started to show its might.
The Root Qi functioned like a flame seed, igniting the violet qi in his starry sea and causing his astral energy to surge. Without even summoning his Eight Star Battle Armor, Long Chen could now meet the strike of a two-vein Emperor head-on.
The Earth Devil’s expression twisted as he poured more energy into his attack, trying to overwhelm Long Chen. But Long Chen’s hand felt as vast as the cosmos itself, responding with equal force to everything the Earth Devil threw at him.
Meanwhile, Long Chen was in no rush to counterattack. He was borrowing the power of this Earth Devil to get a better understanding of his Root Qi.
Amongst his Spirit Root, Spirit Blood, and Spirit Bone, his Spirit Root was the most mysterious. Even though he had gone from the mortal world to the immortal world and read many texts, he still didn’t have a complete understanding of what Root Qi was.
It was like a clump of fire, but it also represented a person’s talent. There were many kinds of Spirit Roots, and in the mortal world, there existed many tests that could appraise a person’s talent through the Spirit Root.
When Long Chen first got into the immortal world, the Spirit Root also seemed to be an important marker of how talented someone was. But after reaching the Immortal King realm, people stopped caring about the Spirit Root, and many seemed to feel that it wasn’t important. That was because they were unable to sense any meaning behind its existence.
However, Long Chen found that his Spirit Root was gradually awakening, giving him a novel feeling. It made the circulation of his astral energy smooth, lightening the burden on his body and enhancing his output of power. This tiny clump of Root Qi was far more miraculous than he had anticipated.
BOOM!
Finally, a resounding explosion echoed, and the Earth Devil let out a grunt as he was blasted back by Long Chen’s palm.
The surrounding Earth Devils were shocked. They had encountered countless human cultivators over the years and were familiar with their power levels. Yet, this human, who was only at the Eternal level, had managed to force back a two-vein Emperor with sheer strength.
Long Chen’s opponent was shocked and incensed. Seeing the contemptuous gaze of his comrades, he seethed with fury.
BOOM!
With a roar, two devil runes appeared on his forehead, and his aura surged tenfold.
Long Chen jumped when he saw this, but then, the Earth Cauldron’s voice rang out in his mind.
“It’s nothing to be surprised about. This is the mark of a true two-vein Emperor. While a Saint’s heaven veins manifest outside the body, an Emperor’s Emperor veins manifest inside. Once mastered, they surface on the skin. The laws outside the Endless Desolation limit most Emperors from showing their veins, but in this land, they can reveal their true might. You’re fighting the standard power of a two-vein Emperor from the Endless Desolation.”
When Long Chen heard this, his blood boiled with excitement. He had finally found an opponent who could match the full extent of his power.
“Foolish human, today I’ll completely crush you! Take out your weapon and show me your full power!” roared that Earth Devil, his voice rumbling like thunder as his Emperor might shook the world.
Even Gold Rhino in peak form would pale in comparison to the sheer power radiating from the enraged Earth Devil.
Long Chen sneered, “Idiot. If I take out my weapon, you won’t stand a chance. Now stop talking and come at me!”
“DIE!”
Furious that Long Chen still hadn’t drawn a weapon or summoned his manifestation, the Earth Devil shot toward him, launching a punch filled with violent Emperor power.
