You are the one that has shaken the Heavenly Magnificence Divine Prefecture? The one said to be the number one figure of the nine heavens? That Long Chen? asked Shen Qingxue.

The Violet Abyss was rather closed off to the outside world. After all, they basically didnt have any business outside. However, they did keep an eye on the rising heavenly geniuses of the Heavenly Magnificence Divine Prefecture. This information was only given to the top disciples of the Violet Abyss.

It was basically a way that they told the heavenly geniuses of their own race not to underestimate the people of the outside world.

Long Chen had crushed heavenly geniuses in the outside world one after the other. He had gone to the Wine God Palace, the Tea Saint Dao Temple, and the Calligraphy Sect, managing to bring them into an alliance so that they worked together against the Zither Sect. He had even fought against one of the primal chaos divine items, the Heavenly Devil Zither, all to save one of his women.

His reputation was so great that it made all the other heavenly geniuses of the Heavenly Magnificence Divine Prefecture seem insignificant in comparison. The top experts of the Violet Abyss all knew his name.

However, the ordinary disciples were not given this information. When Long Chen first entered, they could tell who he was because of the invitation card, but the people guarding the gate actually thought that he had cheated in order to climb the staircase.

Big brother Long Chen, if youre a member of our violet blood race, why did you only come to the Violet Abyss now? asked Shen Mengxue. They were well aware that Long Chen was one of them, and many of them looked forward to meeting him.

Perhaps he simply didnt care about our Violet Abyss! said Shen Qingxue lightly.

This girl really refused to give Long Chen any face.

Little sister, thats a bit much. I came to the Heavenly Magnificence Divine Prefecture to fight against the Zither Sect. I didnt want to implicate the Violet Abyss! said Long Chen.

You have violet blood. The Violet Abyss is your home. We are your brothers and sisters, so how can you say that youre implicating us? asked Shen Mengxue.

It was these innocent words that made Long Chen embarrassed. After all, he had seen more than his fair share of situations where people pretended to be allies only to turn away when their friends needed them. How could he believe in the Violet Abyss just like that? After all, back when he first encountered the various branches of the violet blood race, and even in Sovereign Mountain, he ended up encountering quite a few hostile situations.

Long Chens hands were stained with the blood of his own kin, on both sides. How was he supposed to trust that the Violet Abyss would treat him as family?

Youre right, junior sister Mengxue. It was my mistake. I apologize for coming late! said Long Chen.

Shen Mengxue smiled. Since were family, Ill forgive you. But the Abyss Lord might not be so forgiving

Shen Qingxue immediately cut her off. Mengxue, it is forbidden to talk badly of the Abyss Lord!

Shen Mengxue immediately realized she had misspoken, and hastily changed the subject. Big brother Long Chen, you should take the test too! Lets do it together! Oh, big brother, have you already taken the divine staircases test? You definitely completed all three thousand six hundred steps. But why didnt you appear on the Golden Ranking?

I did finish the steps, and the Golden Ranking appeared. But I didnt appear on it. Maybe Im just not strong enough? Hehe said Long Chen with a smile.

Shen Mengxue felt awkward now. She quickly followed up with some comforting words. Thats alright! Lets take the test!

In truth, the moment she asked that question, she regretted it. Was this not intentionally embarrassing Long Chen? After all, if he didnt appear on the ranking, didnt that mean that his title as the so-called number one figure of the nine heavens was fake?

Not wanting the awkward atmosphere to linger, Shen Mengxue hastily pulled Long Chen over to the tablet.

The moment he stood before it, Long Chen felt a powerful law power wash over him. He sensed countless different laws from it. This tablet had billions of runes carved onto it, and it seemed to contain every manifestation of the world. It was as if it encapsulated every kind of power in the world.

Big brother Long Chen, Ill go first! Shen Mengxue stepped up and placed a hand on the tablet.

Multiple runes lit up on the tablet. They seemed to come to life and flowed into her body.

The Heaven Dragon Saint Body automatically manifested itself. Her twin dragons appeared, and sacred light illuminated the plaza. The tablets runes flowed and condensed into three chains that wound around the two dragons.

Everyone was mentally prepared for this to happen, but when these three chains appeared, they were still amazed.

The divine light scattering through the world gradually pulled back, condensing onto Shen Mengxue. Her aura grew even stronger.

Xie Wanyi explained, The three chains represent three cores. You can treat it as having three-fold core energy now. Furthermore, every advancement you make will increase your power based on this foundation. Thus, by the late stages of the Sovereign Lord, just in terms of core energy, the gap between the King Body, Paragon Body, and Saint Body will grow unfathomably wide!

Ignoring everything else, just in terms of core energy, someone with a Saint Body could easily exhaust an opponent with a Paragon Body. Similarly, someone with a Paragon Body could easily drive someone with a King Body to exhaustion. As for those with normal constitutions, there was no need to even mention them. Although they wouldnt be instantly thrown out of the competition, the gap was difficult to cross with just effort, and it would only grow wider with time.

The three chains continued blazing with light, and as countless runes on the tablet flowed into the chains, their colors grew deeper.

Xie Wanyi continued, These three chains also represent a three-fold increase in control. The color is changing because the tablet is sensing what kind of law power best suits Mengxues bloodline potential.

Now the colors are set. Azure, red, and yellow. Furthermore, the colors are very pure. The azure represents wood laws, the red represents flame laws, and the yellow represents earth laws. However, only one can be picked as the main law. The other two will be supportive laws.

Big brother Long Chen, which one should I pick for my main path? asked Shen Mengxue.

Shen Qingxue was watching from the side. She almost stopped her sister here. In theory, such an important decision had to be reported to the higher-ups. After all, the future of a Saint Body cultivator required the Abyss Lords consultation.

However, it was clear that Shen Mengxue trusted Long Chen above all others, and Shen Qingxue also wanted to hear his opinion.

Long Chen said, Wood gives birth to fire, and fire gives birth to earth. But wood also drains the earth. With two reinforcements and one counter, theres no decision. Youll have to choose wood!

But wood laws arent very strong. As a fighter, wont she be at a disadvantage? Shen Qingxue was immediately opposed to this.

In Shen Qingxues personal opinion, choosing the flame laws should be the most beneficial.

Not strong? Who told you that? Long Chen curled his lips. She only thought that because she hadnt met anyone strong in this regard. If he had met Liu Ruyan and Chu Yao, she would have known just how terrifying a wood cultivator could be.

Then Ill choose the wood laws!

Shen Mengxue giggled and immediately formed hand seals.

Shen Qingxues expression instantly changed. She couldnt even stop her sister in time. The double dragon manifestations azure chains blazed with light, while the other two chains grew dimmer. In other words, her three law powers were now split and could no longer be changed.

Mengxue, how could you be so rash?! Shen Qingxues expression sank. She had never scolded her little sister so harshly, but she really was angry this time. This was a major decision that would affect her future, yet she had made her decision without a second thought. At the very least, she had to discuss this with the Abyss Lord.

Shen Qingxue jumped and hastily hid behind Long Chen, almost crying from her big sisters anger.

Hey, dont scare her! Long Chen immediately got between them.

Get out of my way!

Shen Mengxue angrily unleashed a palm at Long Chen.

It seems if I dont show off a bit, youll never act obediently in front of your big brother! sighed Long Chen. With that, he stretched his own palm forward.

BOOM!

Tremendous qi shockwaves rippled and Shen Qingxue was sent flying!

She took seven steps before she was able to stabilize herself. The ground underneath her feet was covered in cracks.

What?

Everyone present was struck dumb, including Shen Mengxue and Xie Wanyi.
