Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts

Chapter 5648 Opportunity

Energy poured out of the enormous channel. The Ten Thousand Dragon Nest floating in front of it was shaking from this immense output.

“What pure Heavenly Doyen energy…”

Tang Wan-er was delighted to sense this energy. Their enemies had already gone. All this energy was theirs.

“Long Chen, you have dragon blood power. You should be able to activate the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest. Go see how Gu Yang and the others are,” said Tang Wan-er.

Long Chen nodded. He patted Wilde’s shoulder. “Wilde, you stay with big sister Wan-er here. I’m going to take a look at the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest.”

Wilde looked at Long Chen reluctantly. He didn’t want to leave him out of sight.

Seeing this, Tang Wan-er knew that Wilde was worried that Long Chen would leave and it would be a long time before they met again. She hastily comforted him, telling him that Long Chen would be back soon. Only then did Wilde give his innocent smile.

“That’s right, Wilde, do you have enough rations?” asked Long Chen suddenly.

Wilde was different from other people. He couldn’t have an empty stomach. The moment he did, his combat power would plummet. If it lasted too long, he would enter hibernation.

“I don't have that many rations left, but it’s enough for a bit.” Wilde opened the strange sack hanging on his waist.

Long Chen and Tang Wan-er looked inside and shivered. It was packed with rank five Divine Emperors and above.

There were devil beasts, demonic beasts, as well as some lifeforms that even Long Chen didn’t recognize. There had to be over a hundred of them.

This sack was called the Universe Pocket, and was created through a specific spatial demonic beast’s hide. The interior space was enormous. These mountain-sized beasts were as small as chicken eggs inside of it.

Over a hundred high ranking Divine Emperor beasts were only enough to last him for a bit? Wilde’s current consumption was truly shocking.

Upon learning that he still had rations, Long Chen relaxed. He told him to stay here and listen to big sister Wan-er before returning to the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest.

Long Chen used his dragon blood power to open the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest’s barrier and entered.

As soon as he entered, he saw Gu Yang, Li Qi, Song Mingyuan, Guo Ran, Xia Chen, and the Dragonblood warriors seated on the ground. Divine light enveloped their bodies. Their eyes were closed. They were still in a meditative state.

Long Chen’s divine sense swept over the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest. He quickly found the Dragon Domain’s experts in another location.

What shocked Long Chen was that all of the Dragon Domain’s experts were lying on the ground in a complete mess, their faces as pale as paper. Their bloodline power had been almost sucked dry. They looked to be on the verge of death.

“What happened?!” Long Chen was shocked.

“I guided them here to draw out the Emperor reverse scale from below. However, drawing it out comes at a price.” At this time, the primal chaos Dragon Sovereign’s voice rang out in his mind.

“Is the price their lives?” asked Long Chen in disbelief.

“This is a trial. If they didn’t have the courage to give up their lives, how could they even touch the power of the Emperor reverse scale?” said the Dragon Sovereign.

Long Chen’s heart shook. It seemed that the Dragon Sovereign was not satisfied with these descendants. It was extremely harsh with them. If they didn’t pass this trial, it wouldn’t let them get any benefits from the Emperor reverse scale.

“At the time, I gave them a choice. They could offer up their blood soul and life energy to aid the Dragonblood Legion, or they could part ways with the Dragonblood Legion forever and search for their own paths,” said the Dragon Sovereign.

“Senior, you’re too ruthless!” Long Chen smiled bitterly.

Sacrificing all that would essentially leave them half-dead, if they survived. Most importantly, that was the foundation of a cultivator, and sacrificing too much would affect their future potential. Their realm might freeze, or even drop.

To any genius, that was worse than death. 

From the appearances of Mo Yang, Chi Wufeng, and the other powerful heavenly geniuses of the Dragon Domain, he saw that they had truly been emptied of their energy. They had used their own lives to help the Dragonblood Legion. Long Chen couldn’t help feeling angry with the Dragon Sovereign.

“The Dragon Domain’s disciples have exhausted their blood soul power and their life energy in order to activate the Emperor reverse scale’s bloodline power. Their lives are only being sustained by the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest. But this is just the first. In order to draw the Emperor reverse scale out from its world, the Dragonblood warriors needed to use their powerful wills and dragon soul energy, so the Dragonblood Legion has also exhausted their power. But this is also a huge opportunity for them,” said the primal chaos Dragon Sovereign.

“A huge opportunity? If Wilde didn’t show up, we would have all died!” exclaimed Long Chen.

“You only wound up in such a desperate situation because you were too foolish. When you beat Hou Tianwu and Xue Yingfeng showed up, that was already an unfair fight. You should have just summoned the Six Horn Fiend Fly. But you instead chose to just foolishly fight them one by one until you were exhausted and didn’t even have the power to summon the Six Horn Fiend Fly,” snorted the primal chaos Dragon Sovereign.

Long Chen instantly shut his mouth at that. He really did still have that powerful trump card. But his pride did not permit him to unleash it against experts in the same realm as him.

By the time he wanted to use it, he had already exhausted his bloodline power and Spiritual Strength, making him incapable of activating the curse art controlling it. He had not thought that far.

If Wilde hadn’t come, he really might have died today. To use the primal chaos Dragon Sovereign’s words, today’s matter was entirely caused by his own foolishness.

“Fine, I admit that I was dumb. But you also know that there is an arrogant will inside of my soul that does not permit me to do such a thing.” Long Chen could only thicken his face and blame someone else.

The primal chaos Dragon Sovereign didn’t say anything in reply to that. It said, “I had them exhaust their energy for their own good. The Emperor reverse scale has awakened. Its core energy is being released. Their bodies are currently empty, which is the best time to absorb this energy. Out with the old, in with the new. This will cause them to completely transform.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Many thanks, senior.”

Long Chen finally understood the primal chaos Dragon Sovereign’s intentions. He instantly felt bad about accusing it of wrongdoing.

“Previously, Gu Yang wanted to use the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest’s power to recuperate, but I stopped them. They not only didn’t get to recover, but their remaining energy was also sucked away by the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest just so that the best thing was left for them. You currently have two choices. You can let them absorb the Emperor reverse scale’s power right now, or you can let them continue to stay in this state. When the Emperor reverse scale truly awakens, when its Emperor space is released, you can let them absorb a core energy a hundred times purer than this.”

“Of course it’s the second option?” said Long Chen.

“However, at that time, everyone will enter this space. All your enemies will be there. Are you sure you can protect them all at that time?”

“I…” Long Chen was instantly left at a loss for words.
