Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts

The Earth Cauldron’s divine light didn’t directly shine upon the Six Horn Fiend Fly. Instead, it shone on the Heaven Flipping Seal, Evilmoon, and the Demon Moon Cauldron.

“The three of you really are shady!”

The Earth Cauldron couldn’t help but scold them. While the three of them had locked down the Six Horn Fiend Fly, they refused to bring out their full power, waiting for the Earth Cauldron to do something.

“Hmph, only your sacred energy can restrain its evil energy. Otherwise, we’d just be wasting our strength,” Evilmoon retorted smugly.

The Earth Cauldron scoffed but didn’t argue further. It was true—its sacred energy was the perfect counter to the fiend’s evil essence. However, had Evilmoon, the Demon Moon Cauldron, and the Heaven Flipping Seal used their full strength, they could have sealed the fiend themselves. They just wanted to share this burden with it.

Since the Demon Moon Cauldron and the Heaven Flipping Seal were too pure to have this idea, it was definitely Evilmoon’s evil plan.

With the Earth Cauldron’s intervention, the Six Horn Fiend Fly couldn’t move a finger. After that, Long Chen’s Spiritual Strength surged forth, extinguishing its withered soul and sealing a spiritual mark deep within the corpse.

This Heaven Soul Blood Curse technique required the target’s soul to be erased before the spiritual mark could be planted. Moreover, its timing was crucial. Placing the mark immediately after the soul’s demise would give the user the highest odds of success.

The Six Horn Fiend Fly’s corpse didn’t move even after Long Chen had placed his spiritual seal. Long Chen tensed as he waited for the judgment of fate.

After half an incense stick’s time, the Six Horn Fiend Fly quivered, and a rune appeared on its forehead.

“Success!”

Long Chen was delighted to see this rune. He felt a spiritual connection with his new puppet. This once terrifying creature would now follow his commands unconditionally.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“You… actually turned it into a puppet…” muttered the female nine star heir with disbelief.

Long Chen hadn’t condensed even a single heaven vein, but he had managed to seal a rank-nine ancient Devil Emperor.

Patting the Six Horn Fiend Fly’s hardened shell, Long Chen marveled at its power. The essence blood it had absorbed earlier had revitalized its withered body, and its previous wounds had mended completely. With this trump card, Long Chen felt a newfound confidence.

“Big sister, how are your wounds?” Long Chen asked, suddenly turning toward the female nine star heir. Her pale complexion made him uneasy.

“Me? I’m fine. But you’re amazing. I’ve never seen a nine star heir with so many techniques,” said the female nine star heir.

“Ah, that’s right, I’m Qing Yi. What’s your name?”

“I am Long Chen. You’re older than me, so I’ll call you big sister Qing. You can just call me by my name,” replied Long Chen.

As fellow nine-star heirs, he felt an immediate bond with her.

Qing Yi nodded and said, “You are a very peculiar nine star heir. You are different from us, but I’m happy to see you.”

“Big sister Qing, will you be able to recover from your wounds?” asked Long Chen.

“The Six Horn Fiend Fly’s venom has corroded my body for a long time. Although I won’t die, recovery will be difficult. If it weren’t for this venom, I could draw upon the astral lake’s power to recover at least thirty percent of my strength. But the venom has tainted this lakewater, making it unusable. I can’t absorb more of the venom. You, however, might be able to absorb it for your cultivation,” Qing Yi explained.

“Then won’t you…?”

“This lakewater is a transformation of my core energy. If you absorb it, it will greatly benefit you. Otherwise, it will simply dissipate,” Qing Yi said.

“I might be able to purify the water for you. You can then reabsorb it to recover,” Long Chen suggested.

Shaking her head, Qing Yi said, “There’s no time. Look…”

The lakewater was starting to surge. Motes of light were flying from the surface of the lake and floating into the sky.

“I drew upon the power of the stars to keep the devil contained. Now that the task is complete, this power is returning to its origin. If you can absorb it, do so quickly. Otherwise, it will vanish,” Qing Yi urged.

“In that case, thank you big sister Qing.”

“Absorb it in peace. I will guard you.”

Suddenly, the Earth Cauldron interrupted, “No need. This is the Heaven Vein Mystic Realm. There are countless treasures and special locations. Qing Yi, you might find a place more suitable for recovery. The world is changing rapidly, and you need to get stronger.”

Only then did Qing Yi take note of the Earth Cauldron. Her expression shifted to one of shock.

“You… you’re the…” Qing Yi’s voice trembled, her disbelief obvious.

“Go. Long Chen has enough power to protect himself,” said the Earth Cauldron.

Suppressing her shock, Qing Yi bowed reverently to the Earth Cauldron. She then nodded to Long Chen, reminding him to be cautious, before vanishing in a flash of starlight.

After Qing Yi left, Long Chen put away the Earth Cauldron, Evilmoon, the Heaven Flipping Seal, the Demon Moon Cauldron, and the Six Horn Fiend Fly. Taking a deep breath, he summoned his astral manifestation.

His starry sea covered the astral lake. After that, the two identical powers merged, making Long Chen the master of the astral lake. All of a sudden, he gained control over a thousand times his original power. The energy was overwhelming; one misstep could destroy his manifestation.

“Damn Long Chen! It was you!”

At this moment, Xia Feng, Yan Tong, Xing Yue, and the others appeared. Their eyes turned scarlet upon seeing Long Chen.

They had been cultivating peacefully by the shore when a sudden wave annihilated their comrades. Driven by fear and curiosity, they ventured deeper into the lake.

They had been shaking in fear the entire time, but when they spotted Long Chen, they howled and charged at him.

Although they weren’t sure what exactly had happened, they knew Long Chen was behind everything.

“A group of ants dare to act arrogantly in front of Boss Long San? Hahaha, let me show you true power,” Long Chen said with a sinister chuckle, preparing to summon the Six Horn Fiend Fly.

“Don’t be foolish. Who would waste such a trump card on them? Focus on absorbing the astral energy. Ling-er, it’s your turn to shine,” the Earth Cauldron advised.

Immediately, the Demon Moon Cauldron emerged. Its runes blazed with light as it grew larger and smashed toward Xia Feng and the others.
