Chapter 6972 Laws in Chaos

“Don’t panic! I will go with you,” said Long Chen.

The great era was descending, and Xin Yu was worried about the Spirit Heart Sect.

At this moment, Chi Yutong grew antsy and muttered, “The transportation formation…”

“The great era has just started, so the transportation formations are barely operational. I will go with Xin Yu first. I originally planned to unite your two sects before this happened, but the fight between the Six Dao Stone and the Heavenly Devil Zither caused a significant impact. I believe their fight is the reason the great era arrived early. I will establish some defenses at the Spirit Heart Sect first. Yan Li, you’re coming with us,” Long Chen said.

The transportation formation was activated, sending the three of them straight to the Spirit Heart Sect. When they arrived, they found the sect in chaos.

They had grown used to peace and didn’t sense any danger before now. Because of this, they did have many preparations. When they tried to activate their grand formations, they realized some had not been maintained for years.

In comparison, the Flame God Sect’s grand formations were as strong as an iron fortress, but the Spirit Heart Sect’s were scattered and incomplete. Their defenses were unstable. If attacked now, even a double manifestation Divine Sovereign could break through the formation.

Perhaps Xin Yu was so anxious because she knew about this situation. Still, the Spirit Heart Sect had done one thing right: even in danger, they kept the transportation formation open so Xin Yu could return.

Keeping the channel open meant sacrificing some of their formations’ protective power.

When Xin Yu returned, her father, Sect Master Yue Tianming, immediately felt relieved. He was also particularly happy to see Long Chen.

Yue Tianming never thought the great era would arrive so soon or with such force. With Xin Yu back and Long Chen at her side, he felt much more hopeful about their chances of survival.

Xin Yu watched the busy figures moving through the Spirit Heart Sect. Suddenly, her expression shifted to one of confusion.

Yue Tianming immediately assigned what he was doing to someone else and rushed over. He was so focused on Long Chen that he didn’t even notice the change in his daughter’s expression.

“Welcome, Dean Long Chen! Thank you for coming!” he greeted.

After returning Yue Tianming’s greeting, Long Chen glanced at Xin Yu.

Long Chen said, “Remember, ‘it takes more than a day’s frost to freeze a river.’ We can talk about it after the defenses are in place. I’ll set up a simple grand formation outside the sect, and you should hurry to fix your sect’s formations. Repair what can be repaired, and if not, tear it down and rebuild it. Time waits for no one!”

Long Chen got to work right away. He could sense two different forces pulling at each other across heaven and earth. They were already starting to clash.

Long Chen set up sixteen formation discs around the Spirit Heart Sect, erecting a giant barrier to protect it.

The barrier he built in a hurry wasn’t very strong, but it was enough to hold back the chaotic laws of the Heavenly Daos for now. It would give the Spirit Heart Sect a few days of safety.

After finishing the barrier, Long Chen stood quietly outside the sect, feeling the changes in the world’s laws.

Just then, Jing Jing appeared by Long Chen’s side, looking at him with tears in her eyes.

“Big brother Long Chen, am I useless?” she asked.

“Jing Jing, why would you say such a thing?” Long Chen was startled.

“Big sister Huo Linger and big sister Lei Linger are both so powerful. One can control the entire battlefield, and the other can hunt down your strongest enemies. I’m the only one who can’t do anything well.”

After unleashing her attack in the last battle, Jing Jing had returned to fight the Zither Sect’s experts alongside Huo Linger and the others.

However, she lacked combat experience and couldn't control her own power. Her ice energy sometimes harmed her allies. By the end, she was unsure whether to assist or not.

That left Jing Jing very disappointed, making her feel like the most useless one.

Long Chen couldn’t help but smile and wipe away her tears.

He said, “You did very well this time. Without you, I wouldn’t have succeeded in cutting down Cao Yuyang’s avatar. Didn’t your big sister Yue Xiaoqian also only make one move? But without her, we wouldn’t have won. Everyone was crucial; we couldn’t afford to lose anyone."

"Really?” Jing Jing smiled, her clear eyes sparkling.

“Of course. I should feel ashamed, not you. After all, I don't know anything about ice energy, so I can't guide you. I can’t be of help. If you were with big sister Zhiqiu, your powers would complement each other. Then, not only those minor opponents, but even Cao Yiyang would flee when he sees you!”

Jing Jing asked eagerly, “When can I meet big sister Zhiqiu? The way you talk about her makes me want to meet her soon!”

While rubbing her head, Long Chen replied, “According to Zheng Wenlong, Zhiqiu still hasn’t come to the Primal Chaos World. But now that the great era is starting, the laws of the nine heavens and the outsider world are pulling at each other, causing the walls within the nine heavens and ten lands to crumble. In a bit, our world will be fully open, and you’ll be able to meet her.”

Jing Jing had great potential, but Long Chen couldn’t help her unlock it. The only thing he could do was ask Huo Linger to merge some Ice Soul Divine Flame into her, so she could control both ice and flame energy.

There was nothing more he could do. Jing Jing couldn’t practice the Nirvana Scripture, so staying with him felt like a waste of her talent.

After Long Chen comforted her, Jing Jing went back to the primal chaos space, feeling a bit better.

Long Chen stood there between heaven and earth. The void was flashing, and the laws were in chaos. Life and death were swirling, pulling, tearing, and exhausting each other, as if it were the end of the world.

Even someone as strong as Long Chen felt tiny before these chaotic laws. He felt powerless to change anything.

Eventually, Long Chen returned inside. The Spirit Heart Sect was no longer in chaos. They had repaired the formations, and things were running normally again.

However, Xin Yu didn’t look happy. With a serious expression, she turned to Long Chen and said, “Long Chen…”

Long Chen shook his head.

“You should handle the matters of your Spirit Heart Sect yourself.”

Upon arriving at the Spirit Heart Sect, Long Chen detected more than ten different devil qis, all originating from the same source as the evil statue he found.

Previously, Xin Yu couldn't sense this hidden devil qi, but after gaining control over the Dark Feather Blaze Devil, her awareness of devil qi improved significantly. She identified the issue immediately upon her arrival.

To her shock, the ones infected by this devil qi were the higher-ups of the Spirit Heart Sect, including some of her family members. Sensing this, she didn’t know what to do.

A day later, all the formations were fixed. Afterward, Xin Yu gathered everyone under her father’s confused gaze.

Then, she summoned the Dark Feather Blaze Devil. When its terrifying devil pressure appeared, everyone was scared witless.

Even more shocking, devil qi erupted from more than ten experts among them.

Just as everyone was stunned, the Dark Feather Blaze Devil cut down those experts. Although Xin Yu was somewhat reluctant, she knew she had to do this.

That was because she trusted Long Chen. For Long Chen to tell her to deal with it herself meant there was no saving those people.

If they were left alive, they would be ticking time bombs that could go off at any moment. Any one of them could cause the downfall of the Spirit Heart Sect.

As the great era descended, even a massive entity like the Calligraphy Sect chose to lock down their sect. The Spirit Heart Sect was not in a position to take any risks.

The others started to panic, but Yue Tianming quickly understood the situation and calmed everyone down.

After that, Long Chen left Yan Li at the Spirit Heart Sect. Yan Li was strong enough now. With both Yan Li and Xin Yu there, the Spirit Heart Sect should be safe.

Long Chen had already arranged for Yan Li’s sect members to be protected by the Huayun Trading Company. Everyone had been relocated, so there was nothing to worry about.

Long Chen then tried to return to the Flame God Sect, but the transportation formation had stopped working because of the chaotic laws.

“Long Chen, maybe you should stay here. Big sister Yutong and big sister Xiaoqian are there, so they should be safe,” said Xin Yu.

“That’s right. Even the transportation formations have collapsed. The laws of the outside world are too chaotic. Just now, I saw a strange force tear the void apart. Going outside now is very dangerous!” added Yan Li.

The outside world had become strange and dangerous. The sky was dark, broken only by flashes of light. The darkness was so deep it stirred fear in the soul.

Long Chen shook his head and said, “If I remain here, it could be more dangerous for you. The Spirit Heart Sect lacks the foundation to handle my enemies. Just focus on staying here and don't let any mutated lifeforms break the barrier!”

Long Chen walked out without looking back. She waved goodbye as his figure disappeared into the darkness.

At that moment, countless chains shot out from the grand formations as their power reached its peak. The Spirit Heart Sect entered full defense mode, completely cut off from the outside world.

After leaving the Spirit Heart Sect, Long Chen realized he had lost his sense of direction. Everything had changed in an instant as the laws of the Heavenly Daos shifted again.

Still, Long Chen wasn’t worried. Yue Xiaoqian was in the Flame God Sect, and he had given her some of his core energy, so he could always find his way.

Long Chen moved at a steady pace, focusing on the shifting laws of the world. Suddenly, the space ahead tore open, and a bolt of black lightning shot toward him.

In response, Long Chen raised his palm and shattered the bolt of lightning. His eyes narrowed. This lightning was full of destructive power and reminded him of the lightning Zhi Zhi controlled.

Lightning this powerful could easily kill or cripple a Human Emperor.

As he continued, he saw mountains split open with red-hot lava pouring out, and trees burning all around.

Suddenly, he came across a huge python covered in devil qi. Its head had exploded, and it was already dead.

Long Chen paused and stared at the corpse.

“This is a lifeform of the nine heavens and ten lands, but it was corrupted by devil qi. Its head bears the aura of heavenly tribulation, meaning it was killed by tribulation lightning.”

He recalled the black lightning that had suddenly struck him. The laws of the outsider world aimed to destroy the mutated lifeforms of the nine heavens and ten lands, while the laws of the nine heavens and ten lands sought to eliminate the mutated lifeforms of the outsider devils.

This python had just mutated before it was killed. Its spirituality probably hadn’t even awakened yet. The clash of the Heavenly Daos was truly merciless.

BOOM!

As he moved forward, sudden explosions rang out, and the smell of blood filled the air. He rushed ahead to see what was happening.
