Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts

Chapter 4512 Earth Energy

chapter 4512 earth energy

although the earth cauldron taught long chen a simple technique, just condensing this rune took all of his power.

this was the epitome of complexity returning to simplicity—the more profound the technique, the more simple it was. when the rune on long chen’s palm merged with the one on the earth cauldron, it formed an endless cycle of energy. seeing this scene, how could long chen not understand?

this was the earth cauldron, one half of the heaven earth cauldron that represented the softer aspect, while the heaven cauldron embodied the supreme yang existence. at this moment, the rune on long chen’s arm controlled all of his wild and explosive power.

this power encompassed his bloodline power, the astral energy of the nine star hegemon body art, and even the core energies of huo linger and lei linger. all these powers could be considered supreme yang energies, and this rune had the ability to draw all of them out. if he could detonate all of them at once, the resulting force could directly slay saints. thinking of this, long chen saw a new world before him.

however, the rune on long chen’s hand was not under his control, as if there was a mysterious energy communing with it.

long chen thought that the earth cauldron was controlling it, so he didn’t really take note of this. little did he know that another kind of energy was silently awakening inside of him.

when this supreme yang power erupted from long chen, the earth cauldron’s supreme yin energy merged with it to form a powerful spatial domain.

as this domain enveloped the blood-colored spirit mushroom, long chen shook as he actually felt a resonance with the mushroom.

“no wonder it is called the heaven earth blood spirit mushroom. it is a priceless treasure. through it, one can fathom the universal power of heaven and earth,” remarked long chen.

endless runes surrounded the heaven earth blood spirit mushroom, embodying the connection between yin and yang, gentleness and hardness. it was a manifestation of a grand dao. if someone grasped its profundities, they could turn into an unimaginable existence.

these profundities were of paramount importance not only in cultivation but also in all other aspects of life, whether it was refining pills or forging items.

long chen nodded. he had long since experienced what the earth cauldron was saying. although he did occasionally grumble about his bad luck, deep inside, he vaguely felt that it wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.

those who thought they were the favored sons of the heavens often fell because of their overconfidence. they thought that the heavens would always look after them. if they hadn’t had such blind confidence, perhaps they wouldn’t have died. relying on luck was essentially gambling with life.

in any case, long chen was used to his bad luck after dealing with it for so many years. if he couldn’t find something through luck, he could buy it. if he couldn’t buy it, he could scam it. if he couldn’t scam it, he could seize it through force. as long as he was strong enough, he didn’t think that luck was that important.

for example, this time, he was lucky enough to find the jade bone violet heart bamboo and the heaven earth blood spirit mushroom. however, had he not been strong enough to place the slave mark on the black ape, it would have been impossible for him to come here.

without absolute power, he would only be able to stare at the treasure or face the wrath of the other black ape. thus, while it appeared as if he was lucky this time, it was also a manifestation of his power.

after taking the heaven earth blood spirit mushroom, long chen saw a hole in the ground below it. more heaven earth qi came from below, so long chen couldn’t help but take a peek.

he found that there was a spirit pool deep below, and it had two openings.

“this is the heaven earth spirit spring. it is extremely rare, and its existence is what allowed the birth of the heaven earth blood spirit mushroom,” said the earth cauldron.

long chen couldn’t help but sigh in awe at the marvels of the world. while tempted to collect some of the liquid for further study, the earth cauldron cautioned against it.

“if you touch the water, it will lose its balance and instantly dry up. it will never appear here again. you’ve already obtained a priceless treasure, so by no means should you destroy the precious land that produced it. otherwise, karma will take its toll. those who commit such acts are far from fortune and close to calamity,” said the earth cauldron.

long chen nodded. he had just been curious. he then continued on and plucked a few more rare medicinal ingredients. after that, he left with the black ape.

they traveled for several hours before the black ape suddenly stopped. long chen knew that this was the territory of another terrifying devil beast. hence, he hastily concealed his aura and snuck his way over.
