Chapter 5253 Great Circle of Eternal
As Long Chen’s aura erupted, the dragon runes of the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest continued to flash, and sacred energy flowed around him, helping him quickly acclimate to his new power.
“The Endless Desolation’s laws enhance cultivation speed, and with the white dragon race’s Ten Thousand Dragon Nest, my cultivation speed is pushed to the limit,” Long Chen muttered, excitement filling him as he sensed the changes in his aura.
In just three days, Long Chen had advanced to the seventh Heavenstage of the Eternal realm. This breakthrough caused his aura to grow explosively.
In a cultivator, qi was the most fundamental force, and when merged with blood, it became Blood Qi. These two energies complemented each other: as someone’s qi grew stronger, so did their physical body.
The Nirvanic Charge Pills’ energy was nourishing the eighth star, with some leftover energy slowly raising his cultivation base. Although each individual pill only provided a limited amount of energy, Long Chen consumed them in large quantities, speeding up his cultivation dramatically. Despite his rapid rise in strength, thanks to the sacred energy of the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest, his aura remained stable.
During this time, the Earth Cauldron and Huo Linger had refined a mountain of pills for him. All he had to do was eat them.
The eighth Heavenstage... the ninth Heavenstage... the tenth Heavenstage... the eleventh Heavenstage...
Long Chen had forcibly raised his realm all the way to the twelfth Heavenstage in a month. However, he eventually stopped. One reason was that he had run out of Nirvanic Charge Pills, but more importantly, he sensed that his aura was starting to become superficial and harder to control. Despite the increase in power, there was no point if he couldn’t fully master it.
After his frantic pill consumption, Long Chen summoned the eight stars behind him, and they blazed like suns. Countless tiny stars flew out of the starry sea in his Dantian and circled around the eight large stars. It seemed that the eight stars drew them out and manifested them outside his body.
“Could it be that the Eight Star Battle Armor will only be complete once all my stars gravitate toward the eight large stars?” Long Chen wondered, looking from the starry sea in his Dantian to the tiny stars around his eight stars.
At first, the power of the eight stars had been rising, but now they already settled down.
Long Chen couldn’t tell whether the stars’ power was rising due to the energy he poured into them or because of the smaller stars.
Well, it doesn’t matter. I can only wait until all the stars in my starry sea are drawn out, he thought.
Although many stars had been drawn out of his Dantian, in terms of overall numbers, they were less than one percent.
“I’ll probably already be a Heaven Saint by the time the Eight Star Battle Armor is complete,” Long Chen mused.
Long Chen was at the peak of the Eternal realm, on the verge of reaching the Saint realm. Based on his calculations, he would have to wait until he had become a Heaven Saint before the eight stars reached completion.
Long Chen emerged from his seclusion, expecting to be the only one to reach the great circle. To his surprise, everyone had reached a similar realm.
“Wow, Boss, you’ve reached the peak of the Eternal realm!” Guo Ran and the others looked at Long Chen oddly, surprised that his realm was the same as theirs. Normally, Long Chen’s cultivation speed was outrageously slow, and they often had to wait for him to undergo tribulations together.
Hearing Guo Ran’s words, Long Chen almost passed out. He had been consuming Nirvanic Charge Pills like crazy, to the point of nearly vomiting, yet he had only managed to keep pace with them.
Hiding his frustration, Long Chen solemnly said, “I didn’t spend much time cultivating during this period. I’ve been focusing on comprehending the Nirvana Scripture.”
“I knew it! If Boss had focused on cultivating, he would have long since advanced to the Saint realm!” Guo Ran exclaimed. “We’ve been busy hunting and working on equipment. There’s not much prey left in the area, so Xia Chen and I have been dedicating more time to that.”
Long Chen almost spat blood at the thought. To be hunting, crafting equipment, and still reaching the peak of the Eternal realm—Guo Ran was showing off in a way that hurt Long Chen the most.
“Boss, our cultivation bases are starting to grow rapidly. It’s a bit frightening. I’m worried that if the lifeforms of the Endless Desolation receive this kind of treatment all the time, what kind of level have they reached?” Guo Ran said with concern.
Long Chen nodded. Guo Ran had a point—there was danger lurking in their rapid progress. The laws inside the Endless Desolation were different from the outside world. Their cultivation speed was so fast that it was starting to feel unsettling.
“We even explored outside the Endless Desolation recently,” Guo Ran added. “But once we left, the aura and laws of the Heavenly Daos outside felt so restrictive. It was hard to breathe. I don’t think we can go back.”
Long Chen remarked, “The laws are completely different. Unless the world changes, we’ll be suppressed if we leave. That’s why Gold Rhino couldn’t recover outside the Endless Desolation. But we shouldn’t focus on that right now. Summon everyone. We’re moving out.”
Hearing Long Chen’s command, Guo Ran instantly grew excited and started issuing orders to gather the entire dragon race. As a result, all the disciples of the Dragon Domain were stunned when they saw their race leaders.
