Chapter 1155: 1155
Long Chen spent a whole day refining pills for w.a.n.g Zhen . The mother insect was very large, and it needed top grade pills . Moreover, it needed hundreds of them in order to be effective .
As for medicinal elixir, it needed even more of that . Fortunately, he had Huo Long to help him refine it, and it all went very smoothly . Otherwise, refining that much would exhaust him to death .
When w.a.n.g Zhen received the medicinal pills, he directly gave them to his mother insect . He also started using the elixir to raise his feed insects .
Long Chen had all disciples prioritize giving their ninth rank sea demon’s corpses to w.a.n.g Zhen . Everyone was in support of this . Having sacrificed so many insects to protect his subordinates, he had won their respect .
Furthermore, the most precious aspect of ninth rank sea demons was their core . Their corpses were only worth a tenth, so people didn’t care that much . They directly gave the corpses to w.a.n.g Zhen for free .
Originally, w.a.n.g Zhen had been planning on using his cores to exchange with the corpses . But he was refused by all the disciples . Some of them even said w.a.n.g Zhen was being unreasonable .
w.a.n.g Zhen was extremely moved . He took their sea demon’s corpses . With them, he would be able to raise his insects as fast as possible .
w.a.n.g Zhen was shocked to find that his feed insects were growing even faster than he had expected . Originally, his feed insects would take five days to mature .
But now, they matured in just a few hours . Furthermore, with the effect of the medicinal elixir, the amount of energy they contained was ten times greater . It was even greater than what Long Chen had predicted .
Now that he had enough flesh, w.a.n.g Zhen was crazily breeding his insect army . His mother insect had smoothly reached the mid ninth rank after consuming the first batch of medicinal pills . Furthermore, it was on track to reach the late ninth rank soon . Now w.a.n.g Zhen was completely convinced by Long Chen’s abilities .
Just as w.a.n.g Zhen was crazily breeding various insects, Long Chen was still healing his injuries .
The backlash of attempting to use the fourth form of Split the Heavens was still causing him problems . He still didn’t know what it was . But it was only after using the primal chaos bead to its full powers for two days that his meridians slowly healed .
That shocked Long Chen . The primal chaos s.p.a.ce was flouris.h.i.+ng with life . Bones and limbs could be regrown in a few breaths, and yet repairing a few meridians had taken two days .
Long Chen carefully tested the first form of Split the Heavens . There was no problem at all . His nine acupuncture points were connected smoothly .
The second form was also no problem . The third form was no problem . He slowly attempted the fourth form .
His spiritual yuan poured through twenty-eight acupuncture points… twenty-nine… thirty-five .
The first thirty-five acupuncture points were connected easily without a problem . But when he tried to connect it to the last acupuncture point, his 108,000 immortal platforms actually began to pour their energy in the thirty-sixth acupuncture point automatically .
It was like 108,000 streams were crazily pouring into one dike . The dike would instantly overflow and break .
Although Long Chen had been prepared and instantly dispersed his energy, he was still covered in cold sweat .
If he hadn’t instinctively sensed the danger and given up on using the fourth form when fighting that expert from the Heaven Suppressing Magic Sect, he probably wouldn’t even have a corpse left .
“What is going on? Why didn’t senior Feng Xinglie mention it? Or could it be… could it be because of the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art?”
Long Chen was befuddled . When he tried to connect the last acupuncture point, his 108,000 immortal platforms would concentrate all their energy there . Furthermore, it was a kind of instantaneous burst of energy that was out of his control . That wasn’t something he could bear .
“This terrifying attack isn’t something I can use . ” Long Chen was deeply shaken . Perhaps Split the Heavens had already diverted from its original scope because of the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art . That was because the Heaven Splitting Battle Sect’s disciples who cultivated Split the Heavens all trained in a special cultivation technique: the Battle G.o.d Sacred Canon .
This cultivation technique was a set with Split the Heavens . The two complimented each other . But Long Chen hadn’t trained in the Battle G.o.d Sacred Canon, and he used Split the Heavens through the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art instead . Thus, it was natural that there was a large difference to it .
“I can’t continue like this . Having a powerful Battle Skill but not being able to use it is too much of a waste . ”
Long Chen sank into thought and slowly circulated the energy of his four qi seas . He extracted energy from a few of his immortal platforms and merged it with his four qi seas .
He once more tried to use Split the Heavens and was pleasantly surprised to see that this truly seemed to be a solution . By splitting the work, his qi seas ended up controlling his immortal platforms . He continued pouring energy into his qi seas, while his remaining immortal platforms sent energy to use Split the Heavens .
When he reached the thirty-sixth acupuncture point, Long Chen once more scattered his energy . He found that even the energy of half his immortal platforms was not what his acupuncture point could bear .
After several tests, he finally found a limit that he could endure . If he wanted to use the fourth form of Split the Heavens, he could only use a fourth of his immortal platforms .
Through all this testing, he found the fourth form of Split the Heavens to be truly vicious . If it was activated, it would instantly extract all the energy within a quarter of his immortal platforms .
He thought about testing the power of it, but when he considered how he would have to exhaust a quarter of his energy, he decided not to . In any case, there would come an opportunity sooner or later, and he wasn’t in a rush .
He had already figured out how to use it . For the rest of the day, he continued refining pills .
The next morning, he went to find Hua s.h.i.+yu . In a private room containing just the two of them, the atmosphere was a bit awkward .
“I’ve refined a few special pills for you, and they will protect your soul . But you should be prepared . That thing has been in your body for too long, and extracting it will be very painful,” warned Long Chen gravely .
Hua s.h.i.+yu was a bit nervous . She nodded as she still remembered the pain from last time . That feeling of having one’s soul torn apart was the most painful experience she had ever had .
Hua s.h.i.+yu consumed the top grade medicinal pills Long Chen had refined for her . The medicinal energy quickly spread, causing Hua s.h.i.+yu to glow with a sacred light .
That light made her clothes almost see-through, revealing all her crucial parts . Hua s.h.i.+yu turned completely red and looked away, incapable of facing Long Chen .
Long Chen gulped . Looking at a peerless beauty who seemed to not be wearing any clothes, he found his mouth dry . Taking a deep breath, he expelled all his beautiful thoughts and warned himself that he had proper things to attend to .
Circulating the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art, a faint light came from his palm as he reached for Hua s.h.i.+yu’s chest .
The black qi was located right below her solar plexus . That was a very awkward spot . Long Chen’s hand stopped for a long time in front of her chest as he didn’t dare to press down .
Although Hua s.h.i.+yu had her eyes closed, her breathing was clearly quickening and her face was completely red . It was an unreplicable beauty .
“d.a.m.nit, Long Chen, you’re a doctor now, doctor Long Chen! The more you hesitate, the more it seems you’re feeling guilty…” Long Chen clenched his teeth and pressed . That soft feeling made his heart waver .
“Ah…” Hua s.h.i.+yu shook . A soft cry came out from her covered mouth, and it made Long Chen’s blood immediately surge .
Unable to focus, the circulation of the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art came to a halt, and the light on his palm also faded .
Hua s.h.i.+yu opened her eyes, her face even redder than before . “Sorry, I shouldn’t have made such a noise…”
That cry had been involuntary, but she still felt extremely embarra.s.sed .
Long Chen also couldn’t help being embarra.s.sed . How was he supposed to endure such a sound of rapture?
“Are you nervous, Long Chen? You’re sweating . ” Hua s.h.i.+yu tried to alleviate the awkward atmosphere . Right now, Long Chen was covered in sweat, while normally he was unafraid of anything . He even dared to slap the Heaven Suppressing Magic Sect’s vice sect master, but he was still so tense now .
“A bit . I just don’t have experience . ” Long Chen bitterly smiled . But after saying that, he regretted it .
“What about last time?” teased Hua s.h.i.+yu .
“Last time was too fast and it ended before it started . ” Long Chen relaxed a bit upon seeing that Hua s.h.i.+yu dared to tease him . He had to treat this as just a small matter .
“Aren’t you afraid of Tang Wan-er beating you if you put it like this?” laughed Hua s.h.i.+yu .
“Hmph, do you think I’m afraid of her?” Long Chen sniffed . “Just ask her, when does she ever not beat me?”
The awkward atmosphere slowly lessened . The two of them were no longer so nervous .
“If you’re nervous, you… can… touch… just until you’re not nervous… before helping me…” Hua s.h.i.+yu once more turned red .
Heavens, there was such a good thing? But how could he be so shameless as to really do that?
“I want to, but if Wan-er learns of it, I might not live past twenty-one,” said Long Chen helplessly .
“I promise… to keep it secret . ” Hua s.h.i.+yu’s voice was less than a whisper, yet it was solemn .
She didn’t realize Long Chen was just joking . Long Chen felt like continuing like this was just making their relations.h.i.+p more and more dubious . Taking a deep breath, he said, “s.h.i.+yu, we should hurry up a bit . Once the medicinal effect fades, we won’t be able to expel it . Are you ready?”
“Yes . Let’s start!” Hua s.h.i.+yu closed her eyes and puffed out her chest slightly .
Long Chen didn’t dare to look at her . Closing his eyes and expelling all distracting thoughts, the light on his palm reappeared as he slowly pressed it against Hua s.h.i.+yu’s chest .
Buzz .
Black qi once more began to stream out of her chest . It was like countless black centipedes wriggling around his palm .
Hua s.h.i.+yu’s expression twisted slightly in pain, but with the effect of the medicinal elixir, it was much better than last time . She didn’t make a sound .
“Endure it . I’m going to pull it out . ”
Long Chen urged on the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art, causing the light coming from his palm to grow stronger . More and more black qi appeared, and in the end, Long Chen pulled out a three-meter black figure from her chest .
“Who dares to break my magic?!” Suddenly, an elderly face that was both cold and stern appeared within the black qi .
