Chapter 6975 The Night Comes
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Long Chen made his way through several barriers to return to the Flame God Sect.
When he arrived, Chi Yutong finally felt at ease. She quickly ordered the grand formations to be completely sealed, allowing no one in or out.
While Long Chen was away, the world kept changing. The fluctuating laws grew more intense, causing the protective barriers to tremble under the impact. Keeping an opening for Long Chen felt like leaving a window open during a fierce storm. So, while waiting, Chi Yutong tried hard not to show her worry to the others.
If Yue Xiaoqian hadn’t been able to sense Long Chen approaching, Chi Yutong would have started to panic long ago. Luckily, everyone in the Flame God Sect respected Chi Yutong, and even Chi Yunfeng didn’t question her decisions.
Chi Yunfeng truly had some guts. After choosing to let his daughter lead, he fully stepped back and left the fate of the Flame God Sect in her hands.
However, to say he wasn’t nervous would be a lie. Without sealing the barriers completely, they couldn’t block the changing aura outside, and their entire defensive formations could collapse.
Fortunately, Long Chen had returned. Everyone in the Flame God Sect felt relieved. When the barriers finally closed, the frightening law fluctuations were shut out, and they could all relax.
“Long Chen, did you see anything odd outside?” asked Yue Xiaoqian.
Long Chen shared what he saw during his journey. When they learned that some strange mutated lifeforms underwent a spiritual awakening and turned into terrifying new beings, everyone felt a chill in their hearts.
They looked outside. The world was changing from a murky gray to deep night. Even though the barriers blocked the dark aura, the darkness still stirred a deep fear in their hearts.
“Now what do we do? Do we just wait for the great era to finish descending?” asked Chi Yutong.
Long Chen nodded. All they could do was wait and watch. After all, everyone had been waiting for this great era.
However, every great era was different from before. Sometimes it came silently, and sometimes auspicious signs filled the sky. But there was no record of a great era starting like this.
In other words, no one could predict what would happen in this new great era. Only the Heavenly Devil Zither, who could hear the voice of heaven and earth, could sense a few things.
However, she only told Long Chen that night was approaching and that the third faction of experts was about to appear. She did not share any additional information.
Time passed slowly. The sky kept getting darker, and the heavy darkness felt like it could swallow everything, making people shiver. Many didn’t even dare to look outside.
After three days, there was no light left outside. There were no stars, no sun, and no moon. It felt like eternal night had fallen.
The darkness was silent, but sometimes roars and tremors broke that silence.
Chi Yutong, Yue Xiaoqian, and the others meditated quietly, keeping themselves in peak condition. When this night ended, the great era would truly begin. Everyone was getting ready for it.
Everyone had built up a lot of energy in preparation for the great era. Once the laws of heaven and earth settled, they would break through right away.
By breaking through in this new era, they would take in its mark and merge with its laws. They would be blessed by the new world.
On the other hand, some of the elders, especially those who hadn’t made progress in the last era, were left behind. At this moment, they couldn’t absorb the energy of heaven and earth or use any laws.
Ten days went by, and the world stayed dark. Sometimes, the light from the Flame God Sect showed a few strange figures outside.
Those figures hid in the darkness. No one could tell who or what they were, but they made everyone tense. The barriers blocked their auras, but the Flame God Sect’s disciples could sense creatures in the darkness watching them. The feeling was truly chilling.
Long Chen sat in the air with a clear mind, quietly sensing everything happening outside. While others feared the darkness, Long Chen felt strangely close to it.
Even though the darkness seemed calm, two different worlds’ wills were fighting fiercely inside it. Even Long Chen wouldn’t dare stay in the darkness for long.
Otherwise, the will of the outsider Heavenly Daos would stop at nothing to kill him.
As the two laws fought, Long Chen wondered about his heavenly tribulation. What tried to kill him wasn’t just the outsider world’s will—it was also the native will of the nine heavens and ten lands.
In other words, both worlds wanted him dead.
Did that mean he had always been fighting against the destructive wills of two worlds? He could understand why the outsider Heavenly Daos wanted him dead, but he couldn’t see why his own world’s laws would join forces with its enemy to kill him. How could he make sense of that?
Long Chen pondered, “Didn’t it say that the heavens would train a hero for their destiny? Was the destructive will of the outsider world not enough, so the will of my own world decided I needed to face tougher tribulations?
“Darkness has covered the nine heavens and ten lands. The native and outsider laws are fighting to change the laws of heaven and earth, causing countless mutated lifeforms to arise. Both worlds are trying to crush the other and support their own side. In that case, the lifeforms that survive this tribulation will definitely be blessed with immense karmic luck. But will there be beings like me who are hunted by both worlds?”
Long Chen suddenly remembered the tiger that had killed its mother and brothers. He recalled its fierce nature and its resentment toward the heavens.
Because of two different karmic lucks, two sets of laws tried to kill it. If it survived, it would surely become something extraordinary. But would that be good for the nine heavens? Beings like that could easily become a major threat.
Still, Long Chen had no regrets. He could save it or kill it. What mattered most was how many more beings like that would appear.
Time continued to pass. In this thick darkness, every day felt as long as a year. It was constant torment.
The darkness weighed heavily on everyone. Some disciples couldn’t take it and nearly broke down. They had to use medicinal pills just to cope.
A month went by. Long Chen asked the Heavenly Devil Zither why Zi Yan hadn’t woken up yet, but she just told him not to worry.
Zi Yan hadn’t woken up yet because she was still absorbing energy. The other half of the Heavenly Devil Zither had used a lot of its core energy to pull Zi Yan out, and that energy was now sealed inside her. Once Zi Yan finished absorbing the Heavenly Devil essence, she would wake up on her own.
BOOM!
An explosive sound woke Long Chen up. He opened his eyes and saw a dark figure smashing into the protective barriers.
