long chen left on his own, speeding off toward his previous target. the dragonblood warriors had essentially finished forming up, with each group having at least five squads.
in each of those groups were at least two people on the level of captains, so they should be safe. now, long chen was setting off on his own because he didn’t sense any supreme experts.
guo ran’s luck had given him a reminder. his bad luck would cover up other people’s good luck. by leaving them, their chances of running into treasures should increase a bit.
several days later, long chen arrived at his target area. the scene he saw before him made his heart shake.
this was a giant spring. there were two mountain ranges on both sides of it, looking like an eye from above.
the spring had black and white mist revolving on top of it, looking like a giant taiji symbol. the white mist was full of vitality, while the black mist was full of death. they were blending together, yet still separate.
when he descended from the sky, he found that the spring had its own laws. while it wasn’t so big looking from above, when he got close, he found that it was practically limitless. this spring seemed to fill the entire world. he didn’t know if he had shrunk or if it had grown.
“there is actually a place within this world that manifests the cycle of life and death. the divine families actually didn’t share this secret with us?!”
long chen couldn’t help growing enraged upon sensing the power of this spring. the long family hadn’t told him about this, but the corrupt path and the ancient family alliance’s disciples had both been aware of it.
“boss!”
the dragonblood warriors who had already arrived came over when they saw him.
“was there a battle?” long chen saw they still had blood on them, and their auras were in a very lively state.
“it was dangerous. as soon as we arrived, corrupt experts attacked us. they had broken through to the fourth step. if the zither fairy hadn’t interfered, we would have taken some heavy losses,” said the squad leader.
“zi yan?” long chen sensed the surroundings. there did seem to be some mystical energy remaining in the air that belonged to zi yan. “where is she?”
“the zither fairy immediately rushed off after helping us resolve the ambush. it seemed that she was in a hurry.”
“boss, we were late. everyone else who entered the star field divine world rushed straight here. the corrupt path left behind two thousand of their disciples to ambush us. with them being in the fourth step and controlling samsara power, we would have been at a disadvantage without the zither fairy,” said another squad leader.
“but if they’ve managed to advance, why not stand guard over this place to stop us from coming?” asked meng qi.
the corrupt path and the ancient family alliance had a full million experts inside the star field divine world at the moment, with the martial heaven alliance and the xuan beasts only outnumbering them by a tiny amount. one million fourth step netherpassage experts was more than enough to crush one million and a hundred thousand third step netherpassage experts.
“it’s not so simple. the divine families are using the corrupt path and the ancient family alliance, but the corrupt path and the ancient family alliance aren’t going to be used for nothing. the star field divine world is full of treasures. their main force has definitely moved onto the next place,” estimated long chen.
“then we’re the last ones here?” raged gu yang.
“we should be second to last. there are also the idiots from the sea demon race. let’s just hurry and make our advancements here. this life and death spring has a white area representing life energy and a black area representing death energy. to enter the fourth step, the first thing is to balance your life and death energy. after that, you can step into the core of the spring. that is where the life and death energy is the strongest. we’ve already been thrown behind, so we have to catch up,” said long chen.
everyone quickly entered the spring. they went to the life area because they were currently lacking life energy in the death realm.
the xuan beasts joined in as well. this life and death energy was crucial to their advancement. although their realms were different, they still needed the life and death energy.
“wilde, your brother long has brought you some good stuff.” as everyone entered the spring, only wilde stayed outside. long chen took out the corpses of three thirteenth rank beasts, delighting wilde.
these corpses were so tough that even divine items couldn’t pierce them. wilde’s teeth were tougher than divine items, but even he was having some trouble eating them. he had to tear off pieces of flesh and chew for a long time before swallowing.
“it’s delicious! brother long, you’re great!” wilde excitedly hugged long chen.
in truth, wilde didn’t know anything about taste. it was delicious to him only because the flesh was so strong.
seeing wilde eating the flesh of thirteenth rank beasts made long chen feel a chill. wilde had truly grown terrifying.
“i’m glad you like it. i’ll find some more for you in the future, but you should put these away for now. ration them while you stand watch. if anyone tries to disturb us, kill them,” said long chen.
“alright! go train. leave things here to me.” wilde patted his chest confidently, but his hand was still bloody from his eating, leaving an imprint.
long chen nodded and entered the spring as well. he began to absorb the life energy.
just at that moment, a group of people came rushing over. rays of divine light pierced through the air toward the spring.
“courting death!” long chen furiously shot up. these people were intentionally causing a ruckus so that they couldn’t focus on cultivation.
