Dragon War God

Chapter 669 - Desolate Divine Seal

Long Chen set aside the mysterious tombstone and immersed himself in the cultivation of the Earthly Martial Fist for quite some time. It was so profound that Long Chen couldn’t comprehend it on the spot. He cultivated and realized he had a lot of questions when it came to cultivating it. Rather than stressing himself over it, he stopped cultivating.

He had been doing it for the past hour.

He opened his eyes and looked at the mysterious tombstone. This time, he noticed something different.

Even though Long Chen had stopped, his shadow on the tombstone was still moving. More importantly, it was moving in a way that was completely different from the fourth stage of the Earthly Martial Fist.

Rather than a fist technique, his shadow was mimicking the movements of a seal technique. The soft moonlight shone on the tombstone, causing it to take on a dull, yellow color. Suddenly, the color brightened up and the shadow started to move again, casting the mysterious seal technique.

“What the ...?” Long Chen was shocked, but then he realized that it was the secret of the tombstone! He quickly focused on the shadow’s movements.

He immersed himself in observing the shadow and memorizing the movements. He had a feeling that he was in a trance.

Long Chen thought he had been sucked into the tombstone.

As time passed, his body started to emit a soft, yellow light too.

The shadow on the tombstone repeated the same exact movements again and again. Long Chen had to watch it ten times to memorize everything.

Even though the movements were simple, it didn’t mean that Long Chen would be able to learn the technique. He knew the form of the technique, but not its essence.

Long Chen continued to stare at the tombstone.

Suddenly, he felt like his body had been transported to a different place. He opened his eyes and saw that he was standing in a desolate plain where everything was gray. The Nine Spirit Purgatory was much more vibrant than this place.

Gray sand and black clouds stretched out as far as he could see. Cold wind blew past him, and the presence of death permeated everywhere. Long Chen also somehow smelled the stench of animal carcasses and rotten plants.

The terrible stench lingered in the air.

Where is this place? Long Chen was shocked. He recalled that he had been observing the movements of the shadow on the tombstone, but then he was suddenly transported here.

He was shocked to see the desolate plains. The stench of death started to invade his body, causing him to feel pain. He looked down and saw his skin slowly rotting away. His arm lost its color and turned gray before it rotted.

The pain almost made Long Chen want to commit suicide.

“What is this place? Why is it so scary?” Long Chen started running. He needed to escape the place. The pain was intense, but it wasn’t enough to stop him from running. He knew he would die the moment he stopped!

Long Chen finally spotted an oasis in the distance. It wasn’t large, but it was filled with plants and livestock.

There’s an oasis in the middle of this desolate place? He wasn’t sure if this was reality.

It was too strange to be real.

Rather than trying to find out how he had ended up here, he was more concerned about where he was right now. He quickly approached the oasis.

Halfway there, an angry howl came from the sky and the black clouds were blasted away. A massive, gray hand reached down the sky, covering the sun. The hand was shrouded in the aura of death, and it crushed the oasis.

When it disappeared and the clouds returned, the oasis had been reduced to nothing. Long Chen looked in awe as the oasis had been transformed to the same desolate piece of land. The oasis left no traces after the rot had taken over it.

The aura of death still lingered in the area.

Long Chen was awestruck by the large, gray hand. He was originally terrified by the power behind it, but now he was impressed by the profoundness of that strike.

“I was cultivating the technique on the tombstone and then I found myself here. That hand ...” Long Chen had a feeling that the tombstone and the hand were connected.

Is the hand shrouded in the aura of death the seal technique I’m cultivating? He quickly recalled everything and had a certain sense of understanding of the technique’s essence.

“Is this the true Desolate Divine Seal?”

After he realized that, his body was transported back to the front of the tombstone. The moon had been covered and the shadow on the tombstone had disappeared. It had returned to how it was before, normal and silent. Long Chen noted that everything was silent other than the birds crying in the air.

But he ignored them.

He recalled the profoundness of the technique. Long Chen had only learned the technique’s name after he had a better understanding of its essence. The Desolate Divine Seal was different from the Yellow Martial Divine Seal that Zhao Danchen had used.

The Yellow Martial Divine Seal was only an intermediate King-tier martial technique, while the Desolate Divine Seal was an advanced King-tier martial technique! It was also the strongest advanced King-tier martial technique!

At the very least, it was stronger than the Martial Overlord Seal.

Martial techniques of the same tier weren’t necessarily equal when it came to power. For example, the Wind God Kick was an intermediate King-tier martial technique with three different styles, the Whirlwind Style, the Typhoon Style, and the Wind God Style. All three styles belonged to the same tier, but the former two were weaker than the Wind God Style.

Long Chen had a vague understanding of how strong the Desolate Divine Seal was after he saw the horrifying scene.

“The Desolate Divine Seal is also called the Death Seal. The aura of death is infused into the attack to bring out twice as much destructive power ...” Long Chen slowly deciphered the technique on his own.

Not only had he seen how strong it was with his own eyes, he had even sensed the strength behind the gray hand.

Long Chen felt like his understanding of the technique had deepened thanks to the demonstration. Since Xiaolang was still refining the demonic core and Little Cat was saving Huangfu Qi, Long Chen decided to cultivate the technique.

The more he studied it, the more shocked he became. “The Desolate Divine Seal is similar to Xiaolang’s Nine Devils Ancestral Fire! The aura of death can erode a person’s body! Not only is it strong, it’s also fatal. Those hit by the seal are almost guaranteed to die. No wonder it’s the strongest King-tier technique!”

The technique was vicious, but Long Chen didn’t dislike it. Instead, he was overjoyed that he had managed to get a strong martial technique before he got the Five Emperor Seal. With another weapon in arsenal, he had a better chance of obtaining the Ancient Token.

That was his final goal!

“Zhao Danchen, do you think you are the strongest now that you have the Heavenly Overlord Seal? I know you will come to find me soon, but now I have the Desolate Divine Seal, a martial technique stronger than the Heavenly Overlord Seal!”

The Soul Dispersing Dragon Claw and the Wind God Kick were strong martial techniques, but the Desolate Divine Seal contained the eroding powers of rot and decay. It was also stronger than the Heavenly Overlord Seal to begin with. Long Chen had a feeling that both Zhao Danchen and Feng Xuan would be surprised!

This thought made him even more motivated to learn it.

He started cultivating the martial technique every day restlessly on Sky Isle. Little Cat had long finished his work and was waiting for Huangfu Qi to wake up naturally as she bathed in the Heavenly Phoenix blood. Xiaolang, on the other hand, was still refining the demonic core of the Heavenly Phoenix. Thanks to the trace amount of the Divine Phoenix in the demonic core, Xiaolang would gain a lot more from this than from eating the demonic core of a regular Category Four or Five King-tier demonic beast.

Maybe Xiaolang will

grow into a Category Four King-tier demonic beast? Long Chen pondered.
