Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts

Chapter 5173 Unsatisfied



BOOM!


The eight stars behind Long Chen surged with power. The FengFu, Alioth, Life Fate, Enlightenment Palace, Divine Gate, Nethergate, Violet Tower, and Nirvanic Charge Stars ignited one after another.


Long Chen was startled. He had not tried to summon the Eight Star Battle Armor, but it had manifested on its own. In this state, condensing it was extremely dangerous. Worse yet, the process seemed to be spiraling out of his control. As the Nirvanic Charge Star flared to life, Long Chen’s heart clenched in fear. This was the critical moment.


The Nirvanic Charge Star released a ray of divine light that shot into the FengFu Star. Seeing this, Long Chen was so nervous that he forgot to breathe. This was the moment when his astral energy had been thrown into chaos last time.


BOOM!


Heaven and earth trembled as the FengFu Star and Nirvanic Charge Star connected, forming a seamless loop. The eight stars were now linked tail to head, and divine light surged through them, creating a perfect eight-sided astral diagram.


One ray of divine light after another shot out of the eight star diagram, shattering mountains and crushing rocks to dust.


In the distance, a lifeform roared as a powerful Heaven Saint's presence emerged. Long Chen quickly sensed it—a three-vein Heaven Saint demonic beast. He was about to call on Huo Linger to warn it when the aura suddenly vanished. It seemed that the creature had sensed a mortal danger and fled from its territory without hesitation.


The eight-color divine ring spun, and the eight stars trembled. A wild, overpowering aura clashed against heaven and earth. Long Chen felt the boundless astral energy coursing through his body and was stunned by the sheer magnitude of it.


“Heavens, my astral energy was nearly depleted, yet I still managed to condense the Eight Star Battle Armor, and its aura is this terrifying? If I could’ve done this in the Glacial Heaven Domain, Han Qianye would’ve been crushed with a single punch,” Long Chen murmured, his voice trembling with excitement.


The Eight Star Battle Armor was already so solid despite his nearly exhausted state. Long Chen couldn’t even imagine how overwhelming its power would be if he were at his peak.


As the eight stars continued to quiver, Long Chen realized something startling—the Eight Star Battle Armor seemed to be evolving on its own. A starry sea manifested behind him, taking him by surprise. He recalled that it was only after he started cultivating the Starry River of the Sky Art that he could summon the starry sea manifestation. Yet here it was, appearing effortlessly.


Violet qi swirled out of the starry sea, and the eight stars quivered, revolving on their own. As they did, the stars were drawn to them.


“This is...!” Even the Earth Cauldron cried out in shock upon seeing this.


Long Chen was similarly stunned, not even daring to move. He just watched as the eight stars moved, forming whirlpools that drew in the starry sea. His heart almost burst out of his chest from how hard it was pounding. He thought of a possibility that he didn’t dare to believe.


Suddenly, the stars dissipated, and the divine ring along with the star loop vanished. Long Chen felt his body drained of all energy, and he collapsed, gasping for breath. This time, his astral energy was truly exhausted.


Despite that, an excited expression spread across his face. “So that’s the case. The eighth star still hasn’t reached full power yet. Senior, I’ll need you to work hard on refining some more Nirvanic Charge Pills!”


The Earth Cauldron responded, “For now, I can’t. Huo Linger is on the brink of bursting. We can’t refine pills under these conditions. My core energy is also in the process of awakening, thanks to devouring the Grandmist primal elixir of the golden faith light. As for you, you’ve just advanced to the Eternal realm, and your aura is too unstable to refine pills. We’ll have to hold off for now.”


Long Chen nodded. He now knew that the Eight Star Battle Armor still had room to grow until it reached perfection. Though he was eager to see the power of the fully condensed eighth star, he knew that some things couldn’t be rushed.


The Eight Star Battle Armor already possessed such terrifying power. If it reached full power, wouldn’t Long Chen simply crush Human Emperors in his hand? Thinking of that, he was incredibly excited. As expected, the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art had never disappointed him.


The Earth Cauldron said, “However, don’t get too complacent. A true Human Emperor is nothing like Han Qianye. Although he forcibly broke through the limits of a Human Emperor by relying on faith energy and sacrificing the ability to ever truly become one, that was only in terms of aura. A true Human Emperor undergoes the Human Emperor tribulation to unlock their true power. Han Qianye was merely a fake Human Emperor, nothing compared to the true thing. You must also be cautious against those in your own realm. Remember, Lu Fan, Li Tianfan, Qin Keqing, Luo Yujiao, Netherdragon Wushang, and the others had incredible potential. They were simply unlucky. They had just broken through to the Eternal realm and were on the verge of awakening their Heavenly Fate manifestations when you killed them.”


“Are you saying that...”


“Their true power will only manifest once they awaken their Heavenly Fate manifestations. Only then can they be considered true Heavenly Chosen. So, don’t underestimate them. Their Heavenly Fate Disks only fully activate after reaching the Eternal realm, transforming into blank canvases that will display their unique totems based on their talents and attributes. Their power can multiply by tens, or even a hundred times. If their manifestation is unique enough to be named, they could rival half-step Human Emperors and might even have the qualifications to challenge true Human Emperors,” the Earth Cauldron warned solemnly.


“That strong?” asked Long Chen in disbelief.


“Yes. They were simply unlucky. Even after they met the requirements, you didn’t give them a chance. I even feel pity for them; they probably are weeping in the yellow springs,” sighed the Earth Cauldron. “With their talent, condensing totems would have been a sure thing, but forming a manifestation with its own name would have been nearly impossible. Still, I must warn you of something. The nine heavens and ten lands are in flux. The flower of karmic luck is restless, and the threads of fate are in disarray. Heavenly Chosens are emerging like bamboo shoots after spring rain, and ancient sealed monsters will soon awaken. You cannot afford to be careless,” warned the Earth Cauldron.


“Don’t worry, I’m not Mo Nian. When have I ever been so pleased with myself that I lost my sense of urgency?” replied Long Chen with a smile.


The Earth Cauldron chuckled at that. “That fellow always tries to show off, only to end up with a strong start but a weak finish, biting off more than he can chew.”


“Well then, I should return to the High Firmament Academy before anything else,” Long Chen muttered, clenching his fists. It had been a long time, and he had no idea how the academy was faring. With a determined look, lightning wings spread from his back, and in the next instant, he vanished.
