Chapter 7291 The Heart-Devil’s Secret
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Long Chen suddenly appeared inside a dark space. There were white bone chains binding him.
He snorted disdainfully. Golden light surged out of him, and with a simple shrug, the chains shattered and fell off. As he sensed the lingering aura around him, a cold light appeared in his eyes. “I see… So he’s aiming for the Divine Sovereign realm!”
Then, the eleven-leaf golden lotus appeared above him. “Break now!”
Space shattered in front of him, and Long Chen saw a sea of blood with a familiar bone throne at its center.
This is his spiritual space! Now that Long Chen had returned here again, he finally realized what this place was.
With a single step, Long Chen appeared on the bone throne. Once he sat on top of it, he poured his Spiritual Strength inside of it.
The blood sea started to boil. As his Spiritual Strength extended through the throne, he was shocked to discover that there were countless chains interwoven like gnarled roots connected to it. They extended far into the distance.
Every single chain seemed to be connected to its own world. A continuous stream of energy poured into the throne at a frantic pace.
This energy was not law power or faith energy; it was different from both the energy of the nine heavens and that of the outsiders. Whatever it was, it was in a class of its own. As for what it felt like… This energy seemed to contain anger, resentment, despair, hatred, terror, and every other negative emotion. There was so much of it that it seemed about to burst.
Is this the reason for my heart-devil’s rapid growth? Where is this energy coming from?
Long Chen immediately sent his Spiritual Strength down these chains. However, he was shocked to find that these chains seemed to extend endlessly. They were like a vast web of roots. His Spiritual Strength was unable to cover them all.
“Just one then!”
Long Chen immediately focused on just one chain. But that chain soon split into two. Long Chen picked one randomly and continued. Then, that chain split into two as well, and it continued to split every so often as he moved down. After hundreds of splits, Long Chen’s Spiritual Strength was almost exhausted. It felt like he would never reach the end of this chain.
Fuck, I need to move quickly!
Long Chen had suddenly sensed something that made him uneasy. The moment his soul began investigating the chain, his heart-devil seemed to sense it. He could only hope that the Sound Bewitching Sea Demon would be able to stall his heart-devil for some time.
The chain shuddered. Just as Long Chen’s Spiritual Strength was about to run out, he saw the end of it. He was shocked to discover that there was some kind of lifeform connected to the chain. So his heart-devil’s source of energy was this lifeform? Oddly enough, it gave him a familiar feeling. Did he know it?
Just as Long Chen was trying to figure it out, a powerful pull mercilessly sucked him back. When his vision restored, he was back on the battlefield, and the Soul Bewitching Sea Demon’s figure was reforming within the blood mist.
It seemed that it possessed a truly monstrous recovery ability. Even though its body had been entirely destroyed, it was able to rapidly recover.
“Brat, you have some ability. But I have an undying body! I can just slowly grind away at your energy!” roared the Sound Bewitching Sea Demon.
Long Chen’s expression was ugly, and the Sound Bewitching Sea Demon’s words made his mood worse.
Eight astral gates opened behind him, and the eleven-leaf golden lotus’s light resonated with the eight gates. Long Chen’s aura surged in power, and the immense force blew apart the blood mist.
Starlight flashed beneath his feet. He instantly appeared in front of the Sound Bewitching Sea Demon.
The sound of a loud slap echoed through the cavern. The immense force blew apart its newly formed head. Its headless body spun back like a spindle.
Miao Yin was taken aback. It seemed that when Long Chen was at full power, he was able to ignore the Sound Bewitching Sea Demon’s domain, as well as its other abilities. He was even more powerful than she had expected. So why had he been affected earlier?
“Brat, you’re asking for it!” The Sound Bewitching Sea Demon’s head reformed. It roared, and the Soul-Seizing Bell reappeared in its hand.
“Young Master, watch out!” cried out Miao Yin.
Before she could even do anything, the Sound Bewitching Sea Demon’s arm was ripped off. Blood exploded; the arm and the bell it was holding flew towards Miao Yin.
Miao Yin hastily caught the bell, but the divine runes on the bell quivered, and majestic Grand Dao power surged out of it. She felt a sharp pain in her hands. If she didn’t let go, her hands would be destroyed.
Just then, Long Chen slapped the Sound Bewitching Sea Demon in the face, and its head exploded once more. With its head destroyed, the Soul-Seizing Bell’s divine light weakened; due to Long Chen’s interference, the Sound Bewitching Sea Demon could no longer control it properly.
Miao Yin immediately summoned the three thousand cicadas. All of them buzzed in unison, and the Soul-Seizing Bell resonated and Miao Yin was delighted to find that her guess had been correct. These three thousand cicadas had been an important part of how the Sound Bewitching Sea Demon controlled the Soul-Seizing Bell.
With the support of the three thousand cicadas, Miao Yin might not necessarily gain control of the Soul-Seizing Bell, but there was no way for the Sound Bewitching Sea Demon to control it either. Meanwhile, the latter kept getting blown apart by Long Chen. It had no opening to focus on regaining control of the Soul-Seizing Bell or the three thousand cicadas.
Pow!
“Useless piece of trash! You couldn’t even last a full incense stick’s worth of time? How dare you act arrogantly?”
Pow!
“A former Heavenly Sovereign! And you couldn’t even handle a goddamn heart-devil! Obviously you cheated your way into the Heavenly Sovereign realm!”
Pow, pow, pow!
Long Chen grew angrier and angrier as he slapped it. He had just been a bit away from uncovering the secret behind his heart-devil’s growth, but this Sound Bewitching Sea Demon, despite all of its bragging, had turned out to be utter trash.
Long Chen’s astral energy raged, and he threw slap after slap as if they cost him nothing. Every blow destroyed the Sound Bewitching Sea Demon’s head.
After a while, the Sound Bewitching Sea Demon actually gave up on regenerating its head. It thought that this way, Long Chen would lose his target. As a result, Long Chen unleashed another slap that blew apart its entire body, then destroyed it again, and then once more. Finally, once its body was destroyed enough times, its aura began to drop with every time it reformed. It seemed that its so-called undying body was not that undying after all.
“Damn brat, how dare you humiliate me?! I will kill you no matter what!”
The blood mist transformed into countless runes that wove together in a formation.
“This is the world inside of my body! No matter how strong you are, you cannot escape alive! Body Offering Formation, Bloodfiend Heaven Ignition!” roared the Sound Bewitching Sea Demon, and the might of a Heavenly Sovereign raged.
However, just then, a blood-colored halberd stabbed into the center of the formation, which immediately deflated like a balloon.
“Star Cloud Hand!”
A giant astral hand descended, shattering the void and sending countless fragments of space flying. The blood-colored world disappeared. The Sound Bewitching Sea Demon’s newly-reformed body was caught in a vise-life grip.
“Alright, time to answer some questions. You better be honest, or you’ll beg for death. Understood?”
Long Chen’s voice was ice-cold as it stabbed into the Sound Bewitching Sea Demon’s ears.
