Chapter 7052: Spending Other People’s Money
Nine Star Hegemon Body Art

Three thousand foot-sized spheres of light swirled around Long Chen. Every single sphere contained an entire world inside of it. Every single world contained a kind of incredibly pure and profound law. Long Chen was floating in the air, cross-legged, with countless complex and marvelous runes spinning around him.

Having dad’s help to cheat really is refreshing. Sadly, six of the gates are just stepping stones to reach the Heaven Hell Gate. They are useless. There are only three true divine techniques… Oh, I see, if these three divine techniques are unleashed using Three Thousand Worlds…

Long Chen was studying the three new divine techniques while also comparing and corroborating them to Three Thousand Worlds. He instantly realized their usage.

Wind, lightning, and rain? Wind Divine Curse, Lightning Divine Slash, Rain Divine Collapse? These are all manifestations of heaven! The violet blood race’s three thousand divine runes let me awaken the earth power in the ☷ rune and the Earth Dao Violet Eyes. The Jiuli race’s Three Thousand Worlds let me awaken the heaven power of the ☰ rune and the Heaven Dao Rainbow Eyes. Three thousand Heavenly Daos, and three thousand Earthly Daos. When merged together, they are still three thousand.

Long Chen formed hand seals, and the violet blood race’s three thousand divine runes merged with the Three Thousand Worlds in the air. The moment they merged, the three thousand worlds instantly became filled with life, and they emitted majestic life energy.

When Long Chen opened his eyes, the ☷ and ☰ essence runes appeared in his left and right eyes. And when these two essence runes appeared, Jiang Li and the others suddenly froze. They felt as if Long Chen was looking at them through the screen. None of their actions could escape his gaze.

“What is going on?!”

They all cried out in horror. This feeling made them incredibly nervous. It was as if everything had gone out of control. But Jiang Li waved his hand, and the projection in front of them disappeared. Once the projection was gone, the feeling of being watched also disappeared.

“What do we do? What can we do?!” Long Yan cried out in panic.

Just now, that gaze had felt like the gaze of Hell itself. It felt like all their inner secrets were exposed. It almost made their Dao-Hearts crumble.

“We have to change the plan. Long Chen is cheating. By opening all ten gates, he is seizing a massive portion of the Jiuli Divine Realm’s karmic luck and the Jiuli Tower’s core energy. We cannot tolerate such a thing. Have the Zither Sect and Long Can mobilized? It’s already been two days!”

Jiang Li clenched his teeth. Things had already gone out of control. If it was just a bit of energy from the Heaven Hell Gate that was lost, maybe he would grit his teeth and endure it. However, this amount was completely unacceptable. No matter what, Long Chen had to die in the Jiuli Divine Realm.

“Realm lord, both sides have been informed and are preparing. The original plan was for them to make a move seven days from then, but it’s only been two days…” said one elder awkwardly.

Jiang Li gloomily said, “Urge them to hurry up. Say that the plan has changed. At the latest, they have to make their move by tomorrow or he’ll just slip through their fingers. When they come, they will force their way into the Jiuli Divine Realm, and we will sacrifice some useless pawns to say that we tried to stop them. But we couldn’t protect Long Chen, and he was killed. Of course, it has nothing to do with us. We’ll have photographic jades recording it all. Even if Long Chen dies here, it won’t implicate us.”

“Very wise, Realm Lord!”

Everyone immediately started sucking up with flattery.

It truly was a good approach to this drastic turn of events. In any case, the Jiuli race had too many people now. Sacrificing a few unimportant pawns would save them resources. At the same time, if they were ruthless enough to sacrifice tens of millions of disciples, how could anyone say that the Jiuli race had not tried to save Long Chen?

“Stop wasting time and inform them! At the very latest, they must make their move by tomorrow! I still feel like this brat is up to something!” ordered Jiang Li.

Everyone’s fawning didn’t bring him any joy. If anything, it only made him irritable. He kept feeling like something bad was about to happen.

The Jiuli Divine Realm instantly got to work. All the necessary manpower was mobilized, and everyone started running around carrying out orders.

…

Meanwhile, more runes swirled around Long Chen. He had a faint sneer on his lips. Jiang Li might have cut him off from watching them, but he was unable to cut off Long Zhantian. Naturally, his father was transmitting to him in real time everything that Jiang Li and the others were doing. Their response was completely within expectations.

Long Chen ignored Jiang Li and the others’ scheme. He formed rapid hand seals as he explored the profundities of the Hell Gates.

These ten gates were linked to the Three Thousand Worlds. Other than the Heaven Hell Gate, the other gates were all linked to comprehending Three Thousand Worlds. Although Long Chen had comprehended Three Thousand Worlds, he had indeed cheated, thanks to Long Zhantian. Now he could use what was behind the gates to instantly clear up the areas that he didn’t quite grasp.

When the ☰ essence rune appeared, his Heaven Dao Rainbow Eyes awakened. The Jiuli race’s secrets were fully exposed to him.

Now both the ☷ and ☰ essence runes flowed in his eyes. His violet blood and Jiuli blood were mixing, and it was as if heaven and earth were resonating. Yin and Yang were supporting each other and restraining each other. The mutual support made each other stronger; the mutual restraint made it so that neither of them went out of control.

Thanks to this, one thought was all it took. One thought was enough for the ten thousand laws to follow.

When Long Zhantian saw the two bloodline powers merging in Long Chen’s body, he couldn’t help sighing in admiration.

In the past, no matter how talented Long Chen was, he was still weaker than Long Zhantian in terms of control of his bloodline power. But now, Long Chen had truly awakened his Jiuli bloodline, and he had his violet blood perfectly complementing it. His control had just instantly soared to an unprecedented level.

Even if it wasn’t enough to surpass Long Zhantian, they were at least evenly matched now. This was the heaven-defying advantage of having two such bloodlines. Even Long Zhantian couldn’t help being envious.

“Wind Divine Curse, Lightning Divine Slash, Wind Divine Collapse. These are the original forms of these three basic laws!”

Long Chen raised his hand, and a giant “Curse” character appeared in the sky. The character instantly blew apart and transformed into millions of wind blades that sliced open massive tears in the surrounding space.

“This is the ultimate form of Jiuli immortal characters. Using the Jiuli bloodline to control them, one character can change the world!”

Long Chen eyed the spatial cracks. They were filled with a sharp killing curse.

The Jiuli bloodline truly lived up to its reputation of being one of the human race’s strongest bloodlines. When unleashed using the Heaven Dao Rainbow Eyes, this technique would be even faster and fiercer. It was at all interior to the divine techniques of the violet blood race.

“Chen-er, since you’ve comprehended the profundities of the ten gates, you should use what time you have remaining to force open the remaining three gates. Those are where the strongest divine techniques of the Jiuli race are,” prompted Long Zhantian.

The Jiuli Tower had thirteen levels, and a total of thirteen gates. But the last three gates required comprehension of the first ten gates before they could be opened.

As the Jiuli Tower was still not fully recovered, the remaining three gates did not automatically appear when Long Chen passed the trials of the ten gates. He needed to force them open.

Even Long Zhantian had not managed to activate these three gates. He wanted to take advantage of Long Chen’s state to take a look with him. If they joined forces, they would be able to finish quickly. It shouldn’t affect the upcoming battle.

Long Chen said, “Dad, the meat’s already in the pot. There’s no rush. Guard me while I extract the energy of the ten gates and summon the power of the stars!”

Long Zhantian instantly understood what he wanted to do and nodded. “Alright, then go ahead!”

Buzzzzzzzz…..

The entire Jiuli Tower vibrated. The Jiuli Divine Realm’s karmic luck was set ablaze. Following that, starlight shrouded the Jiuli Tower. Ten gates opened at the top of the tower. Long Chen sat in the middle of them; astral energy and karmic luck merged together around him.

When Jiang Li and the others saw this scene, their faces twisted with fury.

“This bastard is treating the Jiuli Divine Realm as his cultivation ground!”

    Chapter 7053 Third Heavenstage Sovereign Lord

    Endless starlight poured into Long Chen’s body, merging with the Jiuli Divine Realm’s karmic luck and law power and the Jiuli Tower’s core energy. Four kinds of energy formed a current gushing into Long Chen’s Dantian’s starry sea.

    His starry sea was surging with power. Raging flames burst out of it, pouring towards Long Chen’s limbs before concentrating back at his Supreme Bone.

    The Supreme Bone’s star diagrams lit up. At some point, the three thousand Jiuli divine runes and the violet blood’s three thousand divine runes had been carved onto it as well, and they all ignited at once. The Supreme Bone blazed with light which contracted and expanded over and over again. After being compressed, his astral energy spread back through his body.

    Thanks to this nourishment, every bone in Long Chen’s body was strengthened, slowly gaining the aura of his Supreme Bone. At the same time, every bone in his body was carved with star diagrams. Even his meridians and skin had star diagrams on them. As those countless star diagrams lit up, Long Chen’s entire body turned almost transparent, as if he were made of stars.

    “That damn brat is ruining the Jiuli Divine Realm’s karmic luck and the Jiuli Tower’s core energy! He’s f#cking ruining everything!”

    Jiang Li’s heart was bleeding. His face was twisted savagely like a fiend.

    “Realm Lord, we have to stop him!”

    “It’s useless. Long Chen passed the trials, and has the Jiuli Tower’s protection now. The Jiuli Tower’s core energy is his reward. As the Realm Lord does not have complete control over the Jiuli Tower, there’s no way to change this rule!” Ye Boran sighed helplessly.

    “Then can we really only watch as he plunders the Jiuli Divine Realm’s resources?!” roared Long Yan resentfully.

    Everyone fell silent. There was nothing they could do, nothing at all. The Long Chen that they saw floating in the air was just a projection. No matter what they did, no attacks would reach the actual person.

    BOOM!

    A heaven-shaking explosion rang out, along with a ripple of starlight. Starlight covered the entire Jiuli Divine Realm, like the umbrella of a giant firework. It was incredibly beautiful, but none of the Jiuli race’s experts felt any joy or awe. All their expressions were ugly, and they were gnashing their teeth

    “The second Heavenstage! He advanced!”

    “In half an incense stick’s worth of time, he absorbed enough karmic luck for a hundred thousand heavenly geniuses to reach the second Heavenstage! That bastard!”

    Jiang Li clenched his fists so hard that his nails dug into his palms and drew blood. Long Chen was not just exhausting the Jiuli race’s karmic luck, he was also absorbing the precious core energy of the Jiuli Tower. Jiang Li felt like he was going crazy. In this half an incense stick’s time, he had already sent word to the Zither Sect and the Brahma line to hurry up three times. He truly couldn’t wait any longer.

    “It really does feel the best when you’re spending other people’s money!”

    Long Chen sensed the expansion of his starry sea. After entering the second Heavenstage, his power had entirely transformed.

    When he made his breakthrough to the first Heavenstage, Long Chen could instantly tell how difficult his advancements would be. The energy consumption was bound to be ridiculous. Thus, Long Chen had not bothered advancing in the divine capital or the Violet Abyss. However, he felt no such restraint when it came to the Jiuli Divine Realm.

    At the same time, Long Chen also knew that he was only advancing so quickly because of the Jiuli Tower’s core energy. Had it not been for this energy, not only would his advancement take longer, then the amount of karmic luck he would need would multiply.

    Upon reaching the second Heavenstage, Long Chen’s aura continued to surge. Starlight surged through the world, continuously crashing against heaven and earth, and terrifying Sovereign might made the heavens shudder. But Long Chen’s cultivation did not stabilize. Instead, he continued to absorb as much energy as possible.

    “The f#cking brat is going to advance again! Fu#k, f#ck, f#ck!!!” Jiang Li couldn’t help cursing. He was practically running insane. Just advancing to the second Heavenstage had exhausted an astronomical amount of karmic luck and energy from the Jiuli Tower. Just how much would he use up going to the third Heavenstage?

    However, no matter how Jiang Li and the others cursed, there was nothing they could do.

    “The karmic luck is one thing. As long as he doesn’t leave the Jiuli Divine Realm, we can reclaim seventy percent of the karmic luck he’s absorbed. But the Jiuli Tower’s core energy…” Ye Boran clenched his teeth. Even if they killed Long Chen, the Jiuli Tower’s core energy would mostly be lost. More than half would be absorbed by heaven and earth.

    That was because the Jiuli Tower was one of the ten primal chaos divine items. Its core energy could be said to be the core energy of heaven and earth. Once exposed to the greater world, it would automatically be reclaimed. Their power would support each other, and the greater the Jiuli Tower’s energy was, the more power the world would reclaim.

    Naturally, there was no way that the Jiuli Divine Realm’s formations could stop it, no matter how grand they were. Just relying on Jiang Li’s control, reclaiming even forty percent of the Jiuli Tower’s core energy would be incredibly fortunate.

    Long Chen continued to absorb the energy of the Jiuli Tower, astral energy, law power, and karmic luck. His aura was still climbing.

    Two hours passed. These two hours felt longer than a year to everyone; in these two hours, the Jiuli Tower’s core energy went from a raging flood to a tiny trickle.

    Based on the rules, passing one gate’s trial would bring a fraction of the Jiuli Tower’s core energy as a reward. But even that fraction was usually too much energy to absorb. A person would only be able to absorb ten to twenty percent before their body would explode.

    This time, the amount rewarded was also limited, but for a different reason entirely. The Jiuli Tower was providing less and less energy, but it was not because Long Chen was hitting his limit.

    “You absolute bastard, you’ve used up all the energy of the ten gates!”

    Jiang Li’s heart sank. At first, he was still holding on hope that Long Chen would quickly reach his limit and be unable to keep absorbing the Jiuli Tower’s energy. However, it seemed that Long Chen was planning on not leaving even a drop.

    Finally, another hour later, the ten gates went dark, indicating that Long Chen could no longer absorb any of the Jiuli Tower’s core energy. However, even then, Long Chen did not stop. He continued absorbing astral energy, law power, and karmic luck.

    BOOM!

    Without the support of the Jiuli Tower’s core energy, his advancement speed slowed down. But one day later, Long Chen’s aura once more surged. The astral ripple reappeared; vast Sovereign might and law power once more raged throughout the Jiuli Divine Realm.

    He had managed to successively break through and reach the third Heavenstage of the Sovereign Lord realm! His aura was now on a completely different level compared to when he had first arrived in the Jiuli Divine Realm.

    When Long Chen opened his eyes, he raised his hand and looked at his palm. Dense star diagrams flashed on his skin. He smiled with gratification.

    BOOM!

    Just then, the ten gates around him blew apart, and Long Chen’s figure appeared on top of the Jiuli Tower. Along with Long Chen were Jiang Yue’e and Feng Fei. The Jiuli race’s experts cried out in shock—the two of them had already reached the sixth Heavenstage!

    Just then, Jiang Li let out a furious roar. “LONG CHEN, YOU BASTARD!”

    He and the Jiuli race’s top experts instantly surrounded Long Chen.
