Chapter 1365: 1365
The fifth star’s pill formula had truly appeared in his mind . But what shocked Long Chen was that the fifth star wasn’t condensed with medicinal pills .
The fifth star was named the Divine Gate Star . His first four stars were located at his hands and feet . But the fifth star was located in his head .
When Long Chen realized where it was located, his face turned green . Whether it was the Fengfu, Alioth, Life Fate, or Enlightenment Palace Star, when they had been condensed, a huge amount of energy had erupted . Last time, when he had condensed the Enlightenment Palace Star, the violent energy had shattered a mountain .
The fifth star was located in his head . Hence, Long Chen wondered if his head would explode when he condensed the star .
If these memories didn’t come from the Nirvana Scripture, he would really suspect that someone was conning him . This was no different than suicide .
The Divine Gate Star was located in the position of the Niwan . If you drew a line connecting the ears and another line from where the eyebrows met to the back of the head, the place they connected was the Niwan .
This place had many names . The Niwan, the mind-sea, the divine palace, the soul depository . There were all kinds of names, but they all referred to this place .
In the cultivation world, it was said that even before a fetus formed, its Niwan was born . Even before a baby formed, its Niwan existed .
The Niwan represented the soul . First came the soul, then came the body .
So naturally, when people’s heads were heavily injured, their souls would dissipate, causing them to die in both mind and soul . It was due to the collapse of the Niwan .
Unless a person’s Spiritual Strength was extremely powerful, below the Soul Transformation realm, a cultivator whose Niwan was destroyed would definitely die .
This was an extremely important place and also an extremely weak place . But this was where he was supposed to condense the Divine Gate Star . Even with Long Chen’s guts, he sucked in a cold breath .
In his memories, there was also the Divine Gate Pill, which was a ninth tier medicinal pill . It required over a hundred ninth tier medicinal ingredients . But right now, he didn’t look at it, because he didn’t need it .
The embryonic form of the Divine Gate Star was not condensed through medicinal pills, but by opening the Divine Gate . Once the Divine Gate was opened, the Divine Gate Star would automatically appear .
The Divine Gate was located in his mind-sea . If he wanted to open it, he needed the power of lightning tribulation . In other words, he needed to open the Divine Gate during his lightning tribulation .
“This time, I’m really dead . I wanted to first condense the fifth star before undergoing tribulation . But now I need to undergo tribulation to condense the fifth star . ” Long Chen wanted to cry .
His current body was unable to handle his own power . If he underwent his tribulation now, then once he broke his immortal platforms to form cores, his body would instantly explode .
“There definitely has to be some secret to this . The Nine Star Hegemon Body Art has never failed me before . Since I can’t figure it out, I just won’t think about it . ”
Long Chen took a deep breath . In the end, he trusted that the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art wouldn’t kill him . There was nothing else he could do . He could only go all-out .
He thought for a moment and looked at the map . In the end, he chose an extremely secluded place for his tribulation .
According to the Pill Fairy, this region had no Earth Flames and no resources . It was just a sea of lava .
“Whether I’m a serpent or a dragon will be decided now . ”
Long Chen stood in the air, a sea of lava below him . Within this world of flames, he clenched his teeth and formed hand seals . His mind-sea suddenly grew turbulent, its energy raging .
BOOM!
According to the technique in his new memories, he formed seven strange hand seals . His mind-sea rumbled . Gradually, a huge gate appeared .
The divine gate was in his mind-sea, but in his mind’s eye, it was boundless, and there was no way to see the end of it . In front of it, he was like an ant- no, he was nothing more than a speck of dust .
Long Chen had never sensed this huge gate in his mind-sea before . It was a grand, heavenly gate . Golden runes revolved around it, forming millions of chains that bound the gate . The gate was sealed tightly, enough to cause despair .
“This is the Divine Gate? The Divine Gate… a gate for becoming a G.o.d?”
Long Chen was filled with shock, but also excitement and battle intent .
The sky suddenly darkened . The moment the Divine Gate appeared in his mind-sea, the scarlet sky of the Heaven Dragon Flame Region turned dark . Heavenly pressure crashed down on Long Chen .
“Hahaha, so that’s what it was!”
Long Chen suddenly laughed, his voice louder than the thunder of the tribulation .
The moment the Divine Gate appeared, energy spread from the Divine Gate through his entire body .
His body was like a riverbed that had been dry for ten thousand years and was finally receiving nourishment . It greedily devoured this energy, and his body rapidly strengthened .
The heavenly tribulation had only just appeared when lightning beasts began to fall from the sky, charging at Long Chen like a tide . Just the first wave of the tribulation was so terrifying .
Buzz .
Suddenly, the void split open . A huge gate appeared in the Heaven Dragon Flame Region .
It was the Divine Gate in his mind-sea, and it had manifested itself in the outside world . Cras.h.i.+ng against the tribulation clouds, it destroyed the lightning beasts, turning them into runes .
Long Chen could only stare in shock . Was this his tribulation, or the Divine Gate’s tribulation?
The Divine Gate shattered the tribulation runes as soon as it appeared, and it seemed that the heavens had become infuriated . The tribulation clouds condensed once more, and on an even greater scale at that .
However, the Divine Gate unleashed another wave of energy, once more destroying the tribulation clouds .
Even Long Chen was struck dumb . It had destroyed the tribulation clouds . What kind of power was this?
When the tribulation clouds condensed once more, the entire world was being crushed by heavenly pressure . The tribulation surged from above, while down below, the sound of the cras.h.i.+ng lava roared .
Despite this apocalyptic scene, the Divine Gate was indifferent . It stood firm amongst the clouds . Lightning figures could be seen cras.h.i.+ng against it .
The heavens were enraged, wanting to completely annihilate this existence that dared to provoke its dignity . An endless stream of lightning beasts attacked the Divine Gate .
There were dragons, phoenixes, elephants, apes . Each one of them was huge and ferociously attacking it .
Long Chen was completely stupefied . He was supposed to be undergoing tribulation, but it seemed that he didn’t need to do anything . He just had to watch as the lightning beasts crashed against the Divine Gate .
These huge lightning beasts were like ants in front of the Divine Gate . But there was an endless stream of them .
Long Chen noticed that as the lightning beasts attacked, the chains binding the Divine Gate gradually grew fainter .
“So that’s what it was! Borrowing the power of tribulation lightning to open the Divine Gate! Hahaha, this is definitely history’s easiest tribulation . My luck has finally taken a turn for the better!” Long Chen laughed excitedly . He was feeling blessed .
Long Chen looked at the Divine Gate in the outside world and the one in his mind-sea . He confirmed that they were really one and the same .
As the chains on the outside world’s Divine Gate grew fainter, the bindings of the one in his mind-sea also weakened .
Suddenly, one of the chains shattered .
That chain was nothing more than one of millions of chains . It fell from the Divine Gate, as large as a mountain .
“Mine!” Long Chen rushed over and grabbed the chain . He directly pulled it into the primal chaos s.p.a.ce . “So, it actually has a solid substance!”
This huge chain was filled with pure thunderforce . Lei Long immediately flew out and bit down on it, absorbing its energy .
Suddenly, explosive sounds rang out as countless chains fell . Long Chen was delighted . Those chains fragmented into many pieces, but each one was huge .
It was like the chains had possessed some kind of energy before, but that energy had been completely supplanted by thunderforce, causing them to shatter . However, the thunderforce stayed in the chains .
Long Chen didn’t care why such a thing would happen . All he knew was that he had struck gold! He frantically gathered the chains, and a huge pile of them quickly appeared in the primal chaos s.p.a.ce . Even LeiLong was buried by them .
More and more lightning beasts charged out, and they gradually became stronger . But because of this, the chains shattered at an even faster rate, delighting Long Chen .
Just as he was frantically gathering the chains, a huge pile of chains fell from the sky, almost burying him .
Long Chen was startled . He looked up to see that all the chains of the Divine Gate had been broken, and its doors had opened .
Heaven and earth rumbled . Primal chaos circulated on the other side of the gate . It slowly merged with the outside world’s energy, forming a vortex .
The moment the vortex appeared, Long Chen’s body shook . He felt a majestic energy he had never felt before spreading through his body .
Suddenly, the Divine Gate in the outside world disappeared . Within his mind-sea, the Divine Gate was still open, and the vortex continued to revolve . As it revolved, his FengFu, Alioth, Life Fate, and Enlightenment Palace Stars shook intensely . They each sent a stream of energy into the vortex .
The vortex spun even faster after receiving the energy of the four stars . A subtle resonance appeared between the Fengfu, Alioth, Life Fate, Enlightenment Palace, and Divine Gate Stars .
Although the Divine Gate Star was currently just a vortex, it still formed a resonance with the other stars . Long Chen felt some kind of energy activate within his body, filling him with power .
“Hahahaha . . . . What the f.u.c.k?!
Long Chen raised his head and laughed to unleash his joy . But his expression quickly changed . The endless tide of lightning beasts that had lost the Divine Gate as a target now came charging at him .
