Chapter 955: Chapter 938: Emerging from Seclusion, The Role of Long Deng

[The clan leader doesn’t have a WeChat group, only a QQ book club group, you can join the Gu Yuan Tribe group 590596166, Great Mr. Wolf book club]

Mountain and River Seal World.

Xiao Chen was still in closed-eye meditation, naturally unaware of what was happening within the tribe.

Circulating Heaven Qi Sea.

The vast Qi Sea surged like a crazy tide, with rosy clouds of green and purple shimmering. Now, Xiao Chen’s Qi Sea was as deep as 9,900 zhang, nearly reaching the limit of a Zhong Lou Realm Qi Sea.

Next would be the Sea of Qi Transformation on the Path of Kings, where one must open up an even more immense sea of Qi. At this moment, Xiao Chen could not be certain to what extent he could expand his Qi Sea when the time came.

After several days in retreat, the early stage of the Nine Heavens in the Towering Realm was completely consolidated. At this moment, Xiao Chen’s eyes were slightly closed, and he radiated an aura of tranquillity and harmony. There was no trace of the grime from the tribulations he endured that day.

Even the thunderous roar from the Heavenly Meridians within his body had completely quieted down two days ago. The green-purple Combat Qi in his meridians flowed slowly, constantly infusing into his limbs and bones and even blending with the Blood Qi generated by his flesh and blood, emitting a rosy hue.

Finally, Xiao Chen slowly opened his eyes, which carried an unhideable darkness that did not reflect the scene before him.

"Still no progress, what is the ’Beyond’? ’The Sea of Suffering is boundless; turning back is shore,’ but where exactly is this shore?"

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Chen suppressed the thoughts in his heart. Now advanced to the Legendary Realm, aside from his Golden Battle Body not upgrading due to the lack of Chaotic Airflow, his spirit had also risen to the Legendary Realm.

In the Path of Kings, there is the Divine Soul Tribulation, Soul Beyond. For this reason, he tried to trigger the Divine Soul Tribulation.

But he couldn’t comprehend it; every time his soul ventured forth, it would fall into darkness, with his path cut off, and no gateway to enlightenment.

The look in Xiao Chen’s eyes was a bit strange. According to legend, the trials of the soul in the "Soul Beyond" involved Reincarnation Tribulation.

What is Reincarnation? Is it the cycle of life or something else? It was unknown; even those half-kings and Supreme Kings who had undergone Reincarnation Tribulation could not explain it clearly.

However, according to legend, those warriors who had endured Reincarnation Tribulation had more stable souls, and even if they fell by misfortune, they still had the chance for Reincarnation—a real new life remembering their past lives, not merely body seizing, but truly being reborn.

A new life awakened to memories of a past life, with the cultivation experience of the previous life—this was truly a defiance of the heavens.

Of course, Reincarnation comes with its own limitations; whether one can achieve or surpass their past life’s stature in a new life depends on individual fate.

Xiao Chen thought of Tiantai Xuan of the Tiantai Tribe, the woman shrouded in divinity. Now, it seemed her mystery was far more than what he had seen, let alone her coming from the enigmatic Central Earth Wen King Palace, making her even more inscrutable.

Nevertheless, since the last time they made an agreement, Xiao Chen hadn’t seen her again, and there were few rumors about her in the Border Wasteland.

Shaking his head, Xiao Chen stood up. With his current level of cultivation, these secrets would eventually unfold before them. As of today, he was no longer the tiny, constrained warrior of the past.

He was about to embark on the Path of Kings, to scale the summit of the ultimate peak.

An hour later, in the Blue Stone Garden.

Emerging from seclusion, Xiao Chen naturally needed to learn about the affairs of the tribe.

In the garden, the Thunder Tribulation Spirit Wood swayed gently, with specks of purple light falling like rain and an inexplicable Dao rhyme flowing. The silver lightning purple light that landed on Xiao Chen no longer burst apart to be absorbed into his body.

Instead, they formed mysterious rings of purple, with electric light flickering in each one. Moreover, the purple rings linked together, forming a chain of eight rings that resembled a chain of Pseudo-Laws.

Spurt!

As the ninth Law ring approached the chain of Pseudo-Laws, the entire chain shattered in an instant, disappearing into the Void as specks of purple light.

This was the Pseudo-Law of Lightning derived by Xiao Chen after his tribulation, using the power of the Thunder Tribulation; however, for now, only eight mysterious rings could connect smoothly.

Hum!

In Xiao Chen’s hand was a bronze lamp in the shape of a fire dragon, the very Fire Dragon Lamp he had traded with an old man on the Tianyuan Floating Island.

It was only with Luli’s guidance that he obtained it. Afterward, having placed it in the Mountain and River Seal and dealing with a series of events, he had forgotten about it until now when he took it out.

The Fire Dragon Lamp was but a foot in size. The fire dragon was not roaring up to the heavens; instead, its claw grasped the lampstand, its entire body coiling forward, and the wick within its mouth was indistinct, as if it never existed.

The entire Fire Dragon Lamp was full of antiquity, permeated with the breath of ages.

"Luli, what exactly is this lamp? Except for aging a bit, it seems just like an ordinary beast fire lamp."

But the next moment, as he fiddled with the beast fire lamp, Xiao Chen found something amiss, for an ordinary beast fire lamp could not block his Divine Sense. He could not probe the construction within this lamp, appearing as one whole piece.

"Hee hee, did the master notice the difference in this lamp? Although Luli saw it for the first time, she can sense that there is a spirit within this lamp. Those other dragon lamps taken out by the old man were all dead objects, only the four Fire Dragon Lamps traded by the master are alive."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen was taken aback. A lamp itself is an inanimate object, how could it be alive? Could it have a soul?

"Master, these Fire Dragon Lamps, although they have become dilapidated, it’s merely because the lamp spirits within have fallen into slumber. As long as you awaken the Fire Spirits, you will naturally understand the true purpose of this Fire Dragon Lamp."

Luli’s words constantly flashed through Xiao Chen’s mind, and he, too, pondered how to awaken the lantern spirit of the Fire Dragon Lamp.

"Since it has fallen into silence, it must be lacking an energy supply."

Moments later, Xiao Chen’s hand held a translucent spirit crystal, and instantly the primal energy of heaven and earth in Blue Stone Garden began to tremble.

Looking around the entire Fire Dragon Lamp, the only opening was at the dragon’s mouth; the rest was a solid whole without even a crack. Xiao Chen immediately threw the low-grade spirit crystal into the dragon’s mouth.

One breath, two breaths... five breaths.

After a full five breaths, flames finally began to rise from the once silent Fire Dragon Lamp.

Roar!

Suddenly, the sound of dragon’s roar reverberated through Xiao Chen’s mind.

Hum!

The next moment, two fiery beams of light glittered in the dragon’s eyes, as if they came to life—the Fire Dragon was alive.

Hum hum hum!

In an instant, accompanied by the sound of the dragon’s roars, a burning aura rippled outward from the Fire Dragon as the center, spreading beyond Blue Stone Garden into the tribe.

This was a scorching flame, with fierce flames rising.

Roar!

Suddenly, the Fire Dragon roared again, its body rolling fiercely as it turned its head in one direction. As the dragon’s eyes swiveled, they sparkled clearly, and a wave of even more intense and scorching Supreme Yang energy surged in that direction.

Hm?

Instantly, Xiao Chen’s spiritual will followed, and five miles away, within an ordinary stone house, a trail of black smoke began to rise.

"Shadow Energy!"

Xiao Chen exclaimed. To be precise, it was a Shadow Spirit, lurking in the home of that ordinary clan family. Although the Shadow Spirit was nothing to Xiao Chen, in that family’s home there was a child whose spirit was listless.

To these yet-to-cultivate children, they’re the most susceptible to the erosion of wandering spirits’ shadow energy, and Xiao Chen wouldn’t normally extend his spiritual will to inspect the entire tribe, hence he wouldn’t be aware of any possession by Shadow Spirits among the tribe’s children.

Moreover, with millions in the entire tribe, there are many children; naturally, more than just this one would be troubled by Shadow Spirits.

The next moment, the originally listless child perked up following the destruction of the Shadow Spirit.

It hadn’t occurred to Xiao Chen that the Fire Dragon Lamp could expel shadow energy and Shadow Spirits. It was indeed a fine treasure for the tribe’s children.

These tough little rascals playing around might unknowingly leave the tribe, and somewhere outside the city, they could become possessed by wandering spirits.

A light affliction would be like the child just now, with flagging spirits. A severe case could lead to death, or even allow the Shadow Spirit to lurk within the child’s body.

The next moment, Xiao Chen disappeared from Blue Stone Garden, and within several breaths, he entered deep into the Desolate Mountain Forest.

In a place 3000 miles from Border Wasteland City lies an extremely yin land, a graveyard. With the passage of time, the Border Wasteland City naturally went through countless battles; that was the land of buried bones.

Shadow energy filled the air, rarely visited by people, and even resentful spirits had formed within it. When the Gu Yuan Tribe was still a lower-class tribe, a disaster involving resentful spirits had erupted in Giant Stone Valley. It was during that time that Xiao Chen gained the inheritance of the Snake Battle Domain.

If the Gu Yuan Tribe had a Fire Dragon Lamp at that time, simply placing it in the tribe would have made those resentful spirits avoid it altogether, not daring to draw near!

This was a Dead Land, with black clouds obscuring the sky. For a thousand miles around, it was all black, with a heavy shadow energy enveloping, and even the Sky Vault above the Dead Land was black, unlike any other place.

Xiao Chen’s eyes flashed. There were even wandering spirits roaming in there, not afraid of the sunlight.

Although these wandering spirits resembled humans, they were no longer human souls and could only be called Demons. In their simple consciousness, they only sought to absorb blood and flesh, whether of the human race or other creatures.

The closer to this Dead Land, the more the Fire Dragon Lamp in Xiao Chen’s hand shook; the originally emitted red flames began to turn to gold, and beams of fire shot out from the dragon’s eyes.

Roar!

The next moment, Xiao Chen released his hold, and the Fire Dragon Lamp transformed into a fire dragon that swept toward the center of the Dead Land. The endless scorching aura was more than a hundred times stronger than in the Gu Yuan Tribe.

The scorching aura nearly enveloped everything around, and all the shadow energy and wandering spirits melted into nothingness.
