“How long was I asleep?”
Suddenly, Long Chen woke up and looked around curiously. He didn’t even know when he had fallen asleep.
Long Chen’s willpower is too strong. After what happened there, even the greatest heavenly genius wouldn’t wake up in less than ten days. And it’s not like he doesn’t need it… It seems his own body is not allowing him to sleep for that long. He doesn’t feel safe…” Zi Yan stared at him, and her heart ached. Long Chen was in a constant state of tension, and that was definitely not good for him.
She forced out a smile. “It’s only been an incense stick’s worth of time!”
This was the truth. Long Chen had barely slept for an incense stick’s worth of time. She had expected him to wake up fairly soon, but not this soon. She had hoped that he would sleep for at least a few hours. That way his mental state should have mostly recovered.
However, this short sleep was still somewhat effective. During this time, his mind was completely relaxed, allowing him to get back to around fifty percent. In addition, his body was automatically converting violet blood energy to power his Supreme Blood and dragon blood. Now, the Supreme Blood was also back to ninety percent, so he could once more enter the Heaven-Earth law empowerment state.
Long Chen sighed in wonder when he sensed this. Ignoring the violet-gold polearm’s other abilities, just this infinite violet blood energy could be called heaven-defying.
“Long Chen, the divine capital is completely safe. These people can’t do anything to it. You should sleep a bit longer!” Zi Yan urged him.
She had been keeping an eye on everything the whole time. She was surprised to see just how many powerful people were on the side of the divine capital. Zi Nuo, Yu Lan, Li Chenggang, Xin Yu, Yan Li, Chi Yutong, Shen Qingxue, Xie Wanyi, and all the others were displaying outstanding strength.
But they were one thing. She knew some of them, and she expected them to be strong. The actually shocking thing to her was just how strong the violet blood race’s disciples were.
No, it wasn’t just the fact that they were powerful. More importantly, it was how they were able to kill experts with greater cultivation bases than them. Every single one of their movements displayed the manner of a true warrior. Every block was perfect, and every blow was a killing blow. There were no extraneous movements. For some reason, Zi Yan felt that their fighting style was incredibly similar to Long Chen’s.
Three million of them were here, and they were like a massive pack of wolves among an ever-declining herd of sheep. By this point, few people dared to start a fight with one of them.
“Zi Yan, can you seal everyone attacking the divine capital inside?” asked Long Chen after looking around.
Zi Yan was surprised by the question. She quickly said, “I can, but it will take some energy. Why not let them continue fighting like this?”
“News from the Jiuli Divine Realm will soon spread. The people hidden in the dark seem to be making a move. If they attacked, that would be one thing, but it looks like they might be running,” explained Long Chen.
Zi Yan understood. It wasn’t that Long Chen was worried about his friends, but rather that he was cooking up another scheme. The way these forces worked instantly made him think about how to deal with them.
“Fine then. Leave it to me!”
Zi Yan rose into the sky. The Heavenly Devil Zither appeared behind her, and she started forming hand seals. Her fingers danced beautifully, like the petals of a chrysanthemum closing and blooming.
Once she was done with the hundredth seal, the Heavenly Devil Zither flew high into the sky. Four strings shot out of it, piercing the void in the east, south, west, and north. As the four strings dug into the ground, the Heavenly Devil Zither quivered; millions of threads flew out to fill the space between the four strings.
“Heavenly Devil Music—Devil Cage!”
Zither music roared through heaven and earth. Those hair-thin threads instantly thickened until they were as thick as barrels. In an instant, the space they encompassed became a massive cage, large enough to imprison not just the active combatants but also the people hiding in the distance.
Startled cries rang out from all slides.
“It’s the Heavenly Devil Zither!”
With so many people here, there were naturally plenty of sharp-eyed ones among them. They instantly recognized this legendary primal chaos divine item.
“It’s Long Chen!”
People immediately noticed Zi Yan beneath the Heavenly Devil Zither, and Long Chen as well. And while not many people recognized Zi Yan, there was hardly anyone in the Heavenly Magnificence Divine Prefecture who didn’t recognize Long Chen.
“Boss!”
Yan Li was delighted to see Long Chen, but also a bit worried. He didn’t have any experience with such large-scale battles, and he was nervous; what if he did something badly and lost face in front of Long Chen?
It went without saying that he felt a strong sense of responsibility, and he also worshiped Long Chen. Although his display on the battlefield could be considered outstanding, he was still nervous.
Zi Nuo and the others also chimed in. “Brother Long!”
“Long Chen…”
“Big brother!”
Everyone on the divine capital’s side was overjoyed. If Long Chen was here, then there was nothing to worry about.
The Full Moon Sect’s disciples were in the divine capital maintaining the barrier. Even with an absolute advantage, none of them dared to be the slightest bit careless. But with Long Chen’s appearance, they cheered excitedly.
Li Yixuan also smiled, feeling a heavy weight lift off of her heart. Long Chen had left the divine capital to them. Even if she was the sect master of the Full Moon Sect, it was still an immense amount of pressure. It was hard to even breathe under that pressure. Essentially, it could be said that the Full Moon Sect was challenging the entire Heavenly Magnificence Divine Prefecture by occupying the divine capital.
She felt like she had suddenly aged a great deal in the past few days. But despite being so nervous, she had to put on a calm act as if everything was under control. She also had to encourage the disciples, all while praying that nothing went wrong. Every day was torture.
Even with the support of so many allies, she still lacked confidence. But the moment Long Chen appeared, she instantly relaxed. The feeling was so amazing that she could barely hold back her tears.
“That’s the Heavenly Devil Zither! And Long Chen! How can this be?!” The Zither Sect’s disciples cried out in shock.
Similar reactions could be heard from the Chess Sect and Painting Sect’s disciples.
They all knew that their own sect masters had gone to the Jiuli Divine Realm with their core divine items. According to the plan, the Jiuli Divine Realm was supposed to be erased, and Long Chen dead by now. Yet Long Chen was standing right there, in front of their eyes. In other words, things had gone awry in the Jiuli Divine Realm, and they were completely in the dark about it.
Indeed, the Chess Sect and Painting Sect’s disciples that had fled from the Jiuli Divine Realm had actually chosen not to send word back to their sects about what had happened. They were all terrified, and despite having the option of informing their sects, they had chosen to simply flee.
Long Chen had let them off, but that didn’t mean that he was letting off their sects. If they were to immediately send word and Long Chen was angered by this, they would definitely die. Ultimately, not a single member of those two sects sent word back as to what happened. This certainly went to show how much they were willing to sacrifice for their sect. As for the Zither Sect… there was, of course, no one who could report anything.
Thus, while the other forces were starting to receive word, they were still in the dark about what had happened.
The Zither Sect’s disciples were all shocked. Only Liao Yuhuang’s expression was calm; she had already guessed what had happened the moment she sensed Zi Yan nearby.
Just then, Long Chen’s icy voice rang out. “Zither Sect, Painting Sect, and Chess Sect disciples, listen here. As the Dean of the High Firmament Academy, I will give you exactly one chance at survival. Stay right where you are and don’t make any rash moves, or you will be executed!”
The disciples of the three sects were startled, but also outraged. Just who did Long Chen think he was to give them orders?
Just then, Long Chen’s voice once more icily rang out.
“Divine capital alliance, the cage is closed. Other than the three sects, everyone else who came here with hostile intentions… is to be killed without mercy!”
