Long Chen’s nine meridian points were fully formed now.
The nine suns in the sky shot nine golden ming poles thatnded on Long Chen. Nine golden shining points appeared on his body, reflecting the nine suns.
Jian Chen and Lan Ling''er’s battles had reached an extremely intense level, especially Jian Chen’s fight. He had to not only block their attacks, but also prevent them from ambushing Long Chen, so he was having a very difficult time. He had to risk his life several times to ck an attack for Long Chen!
It was time for Long Chen to refine the golden energy and turn it into his own dragon Qi. However, he did not do so immediately because he knew that Little Cat was about to act!
His body and the nine suns had sessfully been connected. The next important step was absorbing the Golden Crow’s soul remnants! He would only start to refine the golden energy once the soul remnants had been incorporated into his meridian points.
This was a crucial moment. If he was interrupted now, it would all be for nothing. Jian Chen and Lan Ling''er knew this, so they fought especially hard!
<em>His nine meridian points have already been opened. Is he about to start refining? </em>There was a venomous sh in the Flower Martial King’s eyes when she saw that Long Chen’s whole body was connected to the nine suns. She had been forced back several times by Lan Ling''er’s attacks, and she knew that if this continued, she would likely be defeated!
<em>This little bitch is impressive, but does she think she can beat me? </em>The Flower Martial King smiled to herself and suddenly retreated. As she did so, she flicked up a rock using the tip of her foot, then there was a <em>boom</em> and the rock flew past Lan Ling''er towards Long Chen!
<em>Oh no! </em>Lan Ling''er had been working hard to kill the Flower Martial King, so she had not expected her opponent to pull a trick like that. She could not react in time, so the rock was heading towards Long Chen unimpeded. The rock had the strength of an Earthly Martial Realm cultivator behind it, so it would pierce through his body! Both Lan Ling''er and Jian Chen’s faces turned pale!
Everything had happened so fast. After Lan Ling''er turned pale, she could not even scream before someone stood in front of Long Chen!
It was Xiang!
Xiang had been hiding all this time to stop them from ambushing Long Chen. As expected, when he saw the rock, he quickly spat out a powerful burst of the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire, which engulfed the whole rock!
<em>Whoosh! </em>
However, the rock was simply moving too fast to be burned uppletely. When it struck Xiang, he felt like arge boulder had crashed into him. Xiang was then thrown to Long Chen’s feet, almost crashing into him!
The power of an Earthly Martial Realm cultivator was terrifying!
However, Long Chen was safe thanks to Xiang.
Both Lan Ling''er and Jian Chen sighed in relief, but because they had slowed down slightly, their opponents’ attacks grew even fiercer. Wave after wave of attacks came, so Jian Chen could not afford to be distracted. However, with his abilities and the Cloud Sword, he was able to suppress his two opponents.
As for Lan Ling''er, she initially had the upper hand, but the surprise ambush had helped the Flower Martial King turn the tides. While Lan Ling''er was in shock, the Flower Martial King took the chance to quickly gain the upper hand, forcing Lan Ling''er back with every strike!
Of course, defeating Lan Ling''er was no simple task!
Jian Chen initially wanted Lan Ling''er to kill the Flower Martial King as fast as possible, but looking at the current situation, a quick kill was not possible.
What now?
Wait until Long Chen reached the Ninth Passage Stage? Then what? Even at the Ninth Passage Stage, he would not be able to participate in this battle. To Jian Chen, they had been cornered. He had no idea how to proceed.
<em>All we can do is let Long Chen escape when he reaches the Ninth Passage Stage. After he flees, Ling’er and I can run if we are still capable, </em>thought Jian Chen as he clenched his teeth.
To be honest, the Flower Martial King’s ambush had also startled Long Chen. Thankfully, Xiang had managed to stop it in time. Although Xiang was a little injured, it was not serious. Long Chen was filled with gratitude. He forgot about him sometimes, but he was d that Xiang was his brother for life!
Long Chen believed that even if that attack had been a fatal one, Xiang would’ve blocked it for him regardless. Long Chen was content to have found such a good brother.
<em>I must not waste Xiang’s kindness! </em>He focused on waiting for Little Cat. At this moment, an image slowly formed above the Primordial Realm in his chest. It was Little Cat’s plump body, but he was much more serious than usual.
“Long time no see, old friend,” Little Cat said wistfully to the nine suns in the sky. To Long Chen’s astonishment, the nine suns reacted as if they had heard Little Cat’s words!
The nine suns moved in unison!
“Although only a trace of your soul remains, a huge amount of power is stored within it. I have aplete soul, but I don’t have a trace of power. Hundreds of millions of years ago, did we ever think that we would end up like this?”
There was a wistful look on its face.
“I’m not going to talk nonsense. Today, your old friend just wants to borrow some power for this kid. Don’t be selfish …” said Little Cat as he reached out with his little paw and touched the thickest pole of sunlight in the center.
Long Chen did not know what method was being used, but he suddenly sensed a terrifying reactioning from the other side of the pole!
Something arrived instantly in his body!
Nine indescribable things had instantaneously arrived in his meridian points!
“It’splete! Refine it now, quick!” said Little Cat. He did not return to the Primordial Realm but savored the golden energy with great sorrow. Hot tears filled his eyes as he sensed the familiar energy, shaking his head helplessly. When he saw that Long Chen had started to refine the golden energy, which was thest step, he sighed in relief. “Old friend, since you’re so generous, why don’t you give a bit of energy to that wolf too?”
When Little Cat finished speaking, far away in the sky, the sun in the center ejected golden mes toward Xiang’s head! The golden mes were different from the golden poles that had flown to Long Chen. Long Chen had received pure sr energy, while Xiang was receiving pure sr fire!
“This is the most powerful level that you can absorb. My mission isplete.” Little Cat nced at Xiang, then at Long Chen. Both of them were quickly growing stronger, and he knew that he was the main reason why. Seeing them grow stronger made him quite happy.
“Old friend, I don’t know when we’ll meet again …” Little Cat returned to the Primordial Realm in deep thought.
Xiang was no idiot, so he knew that the fat cat was helping him. Although there was not much sr fire, there was no chance he would pass it up. He quickly swallowed the golden mes!
Then he started to digest them!
He initially started at the Category Six Heaven-tier, but his cultivation level was quickly rising at a pace faster than Long Chen!
Long Chen was also progressing very quickly. He knew that both Jian Chen and Lan Ling''er were quickly approaching their limits, so he had to speed up the process!
This was so that he couldplete his cultivation and help them!
Filled with golden energy, Long Chen fervently guided the energy through the eighteen starry rivers and nine meridian points in his body. He activated his Dragon Soul Transformation, which made him tougher. The characteristics of his Dragon Qi were even more pronounced now!
The Qi given to him by the Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon was blood-red, and it was ranked higher than the Golden Crow’s power. That was why the golden energy slowly turned blood-red as he guided it through his body.
Before that, there was one more process that was even more important. The soul remnants of the Golden Crow had split into nine pieces and nted themselves in Long Chen’s nine meridian points. All of them were activated at the same time, and infinite golden energy flowed through his eighteen starry rivers and nine meridian points. The power umted and soon reached the limit that his starry veins could bear!
While his strength skyrocketed, just like the sun rising at dawn, the nine tiny suns in his body rose from their nine whirlpools, and nine chilling bird calls rang in his body. The nine golden suns had reced his meridian points!
All of the tiny suns burned brightly with golden mes, and Long Chen saw small, golden birds inside each one!
Those were the soul remnants of the Golden Crow! <blockquote>
