Chapter 7040 A Stroke of Good Fortune

Other than Xie Wanyi, whose hand seals were somewhat acceptable, everyone else was doing absolutely terribly. It was so bad that Long Chen couldn’t bear watching.
Their hand seals were inaccurate and clumsy. Their fingers were very stiff as they went from one hand seal to another. Even if they managed to complete the thirty-six hand seals, the power that they gathered would dissipate faster than it condensed. There was no way they could use any of these divine techniques like this. Worst of all, their understanding was limited to the fact that they had to form hand seals. They had no concept whatsoever of why they had to do so.
“Pure, eh? Very pure…”
Long Chen sighed. As expected, clear waters could not give birth to big fish. If these children were to go out into the world, they would be completely crushed.
Thinking of how inept these young people were, Long Chen’s head buzzed. Let alone seven days, even seven years wouldn’t necessarily be enough to properly teach them. Furthermore, the great era was here. The fight for the peak was starting. Every single day was incomparably precious; he couldn’t possibly afford to waste so much time here.
Senior, what were you thinking? Long Chen sighed inside. This sigh was directed towards the violet-gold polearm.
However, the violet-gold polearm remained silent. Curiously, Long Chen extended his spiritual sense. He could sense its item-spirit, but it remained as tranquil as still water. There was no response.
“Eh?”
Long Chen suddenly had a thought. The ☷ essence rune spread beneath his foot and covered the training area. Then, a strange phenomenon occurred: Other than Xie Wanyi’s, everyone else’s blood circulation and spiritual fluctuations were fully reflected in Long Chen’s mind.
“I see! This is it!” Long Chen suddenly understood.
BOOM!
The very same moment, a giant sword stretched out of the void. Xie Wanyi had finally managed to summon the Saint Sword Judgment!
However, although she had technically managed to cast it, the sword manifestation burst apart before it could strike.
Xie Wanyi was as pale as paper; her bloodline power was completely exhausted. But she was overjoyed by this result. She hadn’t expected to be able to successfully condense this terrifying divine technique just like that. Although it had taken many attempts and it was not even half-complete, even this embryonic form was a very pleasant surprise for her.
“Big brother, look, look! I did it!”
Xie Wanyi excitedly whispered since the others were still focused on their hand seals.
“Impressive! Wanyi, you really are amazing!” Long Chen rubbed her head encouragingly. However, inside, he sighed. Little sister, be happy while you can. In a bit, you’re no longer going to be so happy.
Xie Wanyi’s smile widened when she heard Long Chen’s praise. She nodded cutely. “I’ve already gotten the hang of it. There are many flaws that need correcting, but I believe I’ll be able to unleash this technique for real soon!”
It went without saying that Xie Wanyi was a genius. Her comprehension was high, and she was willing to work hard. She had a firm will as well. She had not gotten lost in her delight for long; after a moment of well-deserved self-praise, she had immediately reflected on her own flaws and shortcomings.
For Xie Wanyi to be able to say such a thing, Long Chen was very pleased. There was hope for this little sister of his.
But just then, another disciple’s hands exploded. Blood sprayed through the air. It was a complete failure. His aura also plummeted.
“Big brother, I…” That disciple shook his head shamefully. He felt like he was an embarrassment.
“It’s fine. You’ll grasp it very soon!” Long Chen consoled him.
Of course, the disciple was not that naive. He knew that those were just words of comfort, and he knew that they were as fake as they could get. What do you mean, I’ll grasp it very soon!? My hands just exploded!
It wasn’t long before the others also failed, as expected. Other than Shen Mengxue, no one was able to get past twenty hand seals. Even Shen Qingxue was forced to stop at the nineteenth hand seals; she was unable to progress another step. On the other hand, Shen Mengxue successfully forced the twenty-ninth hand seal. She was only a few steps from success.
Only at this time did Shen Qingxue realize the advantage of Shen Mengxue’s wood laws. These laws were focused on growth and endurance. They were also easy to control. Shen Qingxue was bearing witness to the advantage brought on by concentrating on wood laws.
“Big brother… Are we stupid?” asked Luo Dongcheng sorely.
“Yes.”
It was one word, and it was said in agreement, but it made them all feel a sense of bitterness.
“Well, we’re not all stupid! At least big sister Wanyi didn’t fail!” One female disciple managed to break the silence with a joke.
“To be fair, although you are stupid, you are blessed with good fortune,” said Long Chen with a somewhat ironic smile.
“Good fortune? Big brother, what are you talking about?” asked Shen Mengxue.
Long Chen smiled. “I’m talking about the fortune of having a good big brother!”
“Eh? Big brother, does that mean you have a way to help us?!” exclaimed Shen Mengxue.
“Yes. Go back and tell the Abyss Lord that I want all the disciples of the Violet Abyss gathered on the plaza. That’s every single one. Have the elders take over anyone in critical positions.”
Although they didn’t know what Long Chen was planning, they were all excited and immediately ran off to do as he said. Once they were all gone, Long Chen looked towards the second row of stone tablets. He hadn’t even gotten close to them, but he could feel an immense pressure that made his heart shake.
“As expected. Spatial laws and temporal laws!”
It was just a vague impression at first, but once he got closer, he could tell that the pressure of their laws caused space and time to distort. Even though he hadn’t asked about the contents of the tablets, just taking another step closer felt like it would draw him into an unknown spacetime. If he got in, he had no idea when or how he would be able to get out. Thus, he didn’t dare to get closer and just looked at them from this distance.
These two tablets were carved with too many hand seals for him to count. Moreover, these hand seals were still blurry and impossible to read, and Long Chen noticed that some of the hand seals and runes were also slowly changing. In other words, these techniques were still not fully manifested, so it was impossible to learn them now.
As for the final tablet, Long Chen decided not to even look at it. This was the Violet Abyss, and nothing here would run off. He was in no rush.
Long Chen returned to the plaza. Over thirty million disciples were now present.
These thirty million disciples were all Sovereign Lords of the new era. However, this was the Violet Abyss. The number of disciples was pitifully low. An ordinary clan or faction would already have millions of Sovereign Lords at this time, and some had over ten million. As for those ancient factions with powerful foundations and legacies, they had undoubtedly produced over a hundred million disciples of the new era, maybe even as many as a billion.
After all, this was the new era. It was the final battle. Everyone was betting everything on this. Every additional person was an increase in their chances of survival in this turbulent time. Thus, the absolute majority of factions had bet everything on this generation of disciples. They were their gambling chips.
However, the Violet Abyss only had thirty million disciples. It seemed that the Abyss Lord had not been lying or exaggerating in the slightest….
Every disciple stood in awed silence when they saw Long Chen. There was not a single expression of disrespect amongst them. Shen Qingxue and the others stood at the very front with expressions of great expectation.
Long Chen raised his hand. The violet-gold polearm appeared in his grasp, startling everyone. This was the divine weapon in control of the Violet Abyss’s karmic luck, so why was it in Long Chen’s hands?
The ☷ essence rune ignited on Long Chen’s forehead. His violet blood energy poured into the violet-gold polearm, and the polearm instantly unleashed a wave of divine radiance that enveloped the entire plaza.
“My little brothers and sisters, now that your big brother has come to the Violet Abyss, it is time to bestow upon you this bit of good fortune!”
All the disciples in the plaza shivered as they were touched by the divine light. A tiny polearm-shaped mark appeared on their foreheads. Following that, a vast amount of Dao comprehension and combat experience poured into their mind-seas.
