Chapter 6733 Planting the Golden Lotus

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Despicable human! You must be dreaming, you foolish nine star heir! Dont even think about making a Divine Emissary submit to you! the woman shrieked.

Black flames ignited around her as she charged at Long Chen once more.

BOOM!

Long Chen raised his hand. With a single palm strike, all her angles of attack were sealed, and she was sent flying back again.

I see now, Long Chen said coldly. Youre not a fragment of the Dark Masters divine will. Youre nothing more than a pawn.

You only expose your ignorance! she screamed. I am no pawn. I am the divine soul the Dark Master personally nurtured! One day, I will merge with the great Dark Master and become a part of his holy body! Such glory is beyond the comprehension of an insect like you!

Long Chens words had triggered this crazy womans reverse scale. Her aura suddenly erupted to a new level.

However, she was only a discarnate soul, and one that had just suffered severe damage. Even in this frenzied state, she was no match for Long Chen and was once again forced back.

This time, Long Chen did not continue pressing her.

He had already confirmed that she was a fanatical believer of the Dark Master. Forcing information out of her would be exceedingly difficult.

He considered briefly summoning Cang Lu and using his dark energy to bind her and do a soulsearch, but he felt like the odds of success were not high.

There would only be one chance. Once it failed, this womans soul would definitely dissipate, and that would be a pity.

If Long Chen wanted to learn more, he would need to bait it out of her. Judging by her behavior, she was not particularly clever. With the right provocation, she would reveal something useful on her own.

After Long Chen had left that space, he looked at the door. He knew that the next time he entered, she would be even stronger.

That was fine.

He was growing stronger as well. He would simply treat her as a powerful sparring partner.

Long Chen appeared at the crown of the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Tree. As he overlooked the endless starry river, he slowly formed hand seals.

A golden lotus seed then appeared in front of Long Chen, and he stared at it for a long time.

Long Chen said, Thank you for accompanying me on my journey. You showed me the direction forward in the darkness. You comforted my soul when I was lost. But I was always too stupid to understand how to use you. I only came to understand once I saw that golden lotus diagram in the Devil Slaying Battlefield. You have always been waiting for me.

As Long Chen spoke, the golden lotus seed gently glimmered as if responding to him.

It felt like someone who had waited in silence for countless years had finally been acknowledged. Joy radiated from it.

Then let us merge!

Long Chens hand seals changed. His Supreme Bone suddenly emitted a ray of starlight onto the golden lotus seed.

The lotus seed quivered. Lines spread across its surface as the entire starry river shook. A massive surge of astral energy gushed toward it.

This tiny little golden lotus seed had absorbed almost half the astral energy of this massive starry river. The entire starry river dimmed.

Suddenly, cracks appeared throughout the seed. Its outer shell split open, revealing a delicate, little sprout that looked to be made of pure gold.

This lotus sprout thrummed with vitality.

As Long Chens hand seals changed once again, the lotus sprout vanished and reappeared within his starry sea.

Starry Sea Sprouts Golden Lotus! Long Chen shouted.

This declaration formed a contract. In that instant, his soul and the lotus sprouts soul fused as one.

The starry sea in Long Chens Dantian surged excitedly. Golden ripples spread outward, accompanied by deep, thunderous rumbling.

Every star touched by those ripples was covered in golden light and formed a mysterious resonance with the lotus sprout.

The lotus sprout quivered and extended countless invisible threads, connecting millions and millions of stars within the starry sea. The lotus sprout had successfully taken root in Long Chens Dantian.

The starry sea seemed to awaken, pulsing like a living tide. Long Chen saw that the lotus sprout had grown ever so slightly. Its tiny sprout emerged, but then came to a stop. It was as if it lacked the nourishment to continue.

With just a thought from Long Chen, the tiny sprout glowed, and the starry sea contracted. Astral energy instantly gathered onto Long Chens hand.

Seeing the starry cross on his palm, Long Chen swallowed hard. Despite having prepared himself mentally, he was speechless.

With the Golden Virtue Lotus rooted in his starry sea, a mere thought allowed him to draw upon the full power of the starry sea instantly. The speed and precision of this control were terrifying.

Thanks to the lotus sprout, Long Chen could enter his combat state in an instant and unleash his strongest attacks without delay.

And this was only the beginning. The golden lotus had barely sprouted. What would happen once it grew leaves or bloomed into a complete lotus?

Long Chen excitedly clenched his fists.

His three bloodlines all possessed their own essence runes. Only his astral energy had lacked one.

Now, he was surethe Golden Virtue Lotus was the essence rune most perfectly suited to his astral energy.

However, the lotus was still a tender sprout. It would need to be nurtured slowly. Only when the lotus was fully formed could it truly become his essence rune.

Once that happened, his control over astral energy would leap to an entirely different level. It was nothing short of cheating.

Long Chen took a deep breath and calmed his emotions.

Forming hand seals, he summoned his divine ring and eight gates, absorbing the astral energy of the world.

This time, he was not absorbing the energy of the starry river. After all, the Heavenly River Silks power had to be preserved to protect the Starry River Palace. Just now, the lotus seed had absorbed so much energy that Long Chen felt bad going any further.

As Long Chen started to absorb the astral energy from beyond the heavens, he discovered that the sprout showed the faintest signs of growth.

However, it was just an indication. Its actual growth was nearly imperceptible.

It seems raising this thing will require something truly heaven-defying, Long Chen said with a wry sigh.

Even so, this was within his expectations.

Long Chen stubbornly tried to eat a medicinal pill, only for his stomach to revolt and spit it back out immediately.

So pills really are out of the question, Long Chen muttered. Ill have to find another way.

Long Chen slowly rose and looked over the Starry River warriors meditating beneath the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Tree.

Through this battle and the insights gained within the Seven Treasure Space, each of them had found their own path. Once they awakened, their strength would unquestionably rise to a completely new level.

Long Chen left the starry river. Just as he walked out, an elder rushed over and bowed to him reverently.

Lord Long Chen, Vice Palace Master Liushang has been wishing to see you for a long time.
