"So that's how it is."
Yang Lingqing was inexperienced, so her words were unclear. After Long Chen understood, he heaved a sigh of relief. "That's great."
After saying that, he laughed happily. However, he accidentally aggravated his injuries, causing him to grimace in pain.
After explaining things to Yang Lingqing, Long Chen knew that it was time to go back. This time, he had to properly prepare for the upcoming battle for the Blue Dragon Battle Halberd.
Bei Tang Mo's palm strike had been engraved in Long Chen's heart. One day, he would definitely take revenge. However, the most important thing right now was to fight against Dongfang Tianyu and obtain the Blue Dragon Battle Halberd.
Yin Mengyao was also working very hard these days. Long Chen didn't let her know about Yang Lingqing's matter.
With Dongfang Xuanxiao's help of two High Profound Rank Spirit Herbs, Long Chen's injuries were almost completely healed after three days. Yin Mengyao was in seclusion training, so she didn't even know that Long Chen was injured.
However, for Long Chen, this was much easier.
With Guiyuan, Long Chen could heal his injuries at any time. This kind of healing speed was much faster than the others. Although Dongfang Xuanxiao knew about his Life Battle Skill, he didn't ask too much.
On the morning of the fourth day, Long Chen found Dongfang Xuanxiao and said, "Father, I have reached a bottleneck in my training. I want to go to the Star Devil Prison again. I have a premonition that this time, I will be able to break through to the Initial Earth Core realm."
"Oh."
For Dongfang Xuanxiao, this was good news. He knew that Long Chen was able to heal so quickly because of the Life Battle Skill.
Dongfang Xuanxiao had high expectations for Long Chen. Therefore, Dongfang Xuanxiao was very happy that Long Chen had hope of breaking through again. He quickly brought him into the Sky Martial Realm and arrived at the entrance of the Star Devil Prison again.
After greeting Yan Honghai, Long Chen, who had familiarized himself with the Star Devil Prison, entered the Star Devil Prison alone. He arrived at the Transfer Hall. Soon, he arrived in front of the two thick iron chains.
"Mo Xiaolang is in that direction."
Long Chen looked at the iron chains on the left and then looked into the distance. There were five huge shining stars. Long Chen knew that the one that was faintly cyan, it should be the Blue Dragon Star that imprisoned Mo Xiaolang.
"I need to hurry up and cultivate. Breaking through to the Minor Earth Core realm is more important."
With that thought in mind, Long Chen stepped onto the iron chain on the right. He walked along the iron chain alone. After about half an hour, he finally arrived at the fork in the endless loneliness.
"5 times gravity … 10 times gravity … 20 … 30 … 50 …" Looking at the signs, Long Chen was thinking about which broken star he should enter.
"Last time, I was still able to move around freely in the 20 times gravity. The gravitational force here is 100 times, and I think only Heavenly Core warriors can enter this place. That's why I'll enter the second level, 50 times gravity."
50 times gravity, that meant that Long Chen's bones and muscles had to withstand a weight of 7000 Jin, which was 7 tons. If an ordinary man were to enter this place, he would be crushed to death immediately.
"Within my tolerance, the stronger the gravity, the more suitable it is for me. There are only a few days left, I need to make a breakthrough in this final moment, or else I won't have another chance."
With that thought in mind, Long Chen no longer hesitated and decided to enter the broken star with 50 times gravity.
Long Chen walked on the chain. When he got close to the broken star, which was more than seven hundred meters in diameter, he was sucked in by the broken star and fell to the ground.
Slap!
Long Chen's body, which had just recovered, was immediately subjected to extreme torture. The pulling of his muscles and the stagnation of his blood almost caused Long Chen to stop breathing. He lay on the ground, unable to move at all.
"Good, very strong."
Long Chen was very satisfied with this kind of gravity. He roared and began to clench his teeth. He used his hands to support himself on the yellow ground and used all his strength to prop himself up. The veins on his arms burst out one after another. They were like tiny green snakes that wrapped around his arms and neck.
"Fuck!"
Long Chen cursed. The gravity was simply too strong. At this moment, his entire body was covered in sweat. After working hard for almost a quarter of an hour, the final result was that he could only support his entire body.
However, during this process, his body had received an enormous amount of training.
"The next goal is to be able to meditate."
As long as he could meditate, Long Chen would be able to circulate his true qi.
Therefore, under this terrifying gravity, Long Chen endured and began to do something that he could do not do for long after he was born, and that was to sit up.
After another hour, Long Chen was covered in sweat and gasping for breath. However, he had successfully sat up and got into a good posture.
"Next, it's time to circulate my true qi and train it."
Under fifty times the gravity, it was extremely difficult to circulate his Zhen Qi. Long Chen had to expend a hundred times more strength than usual before he could barely circulate his Zhen Qi. This feeling was similar to pulling an elephant when he didn't have any strength.
It was not hard to imagine how difficult it was.
However, Long Chen knew that as long as he persevered, he would be able to break through to the Initial Earth Core realm in a short period of time. It would be even better than when he was using the Blood Refinement Qi technique. He had been using the Blood Refinement Qi technique all this time. Although Lingxi said that he was still weak and did not need to worry about his foundation, Long Chen knew that he still needed to be careful. Using this kind of training to improve was a better way.
Time slowly passed as Long Chen trained bitterly. The time it took for Long Chen to complete a cycle became less and less. Five days later, the time it took him an entire day to complete a cycle was reduced to an hour.
"After five days of training, my true qi has been compressed again. Even the degree of fusion between my true qi and the Thunder Flame Force has increased a lot. This has made my true qi more powerful, and it should be about time for me to break through."
"Persevere."
In these few days, Long Chen thought about Yang Lingqing and Lingxi, who still needed his help. His heart was filled with power. Long Chen knew that only a man with responsibility would continue to improve. He would protect those he wanted to protect and defeat those who wanted to kill him.
After another half a day, when Long Chen tried to circulate his true qi, the resistance he felt was almost the same as when he was under the 20 times gravity.
"Time's up."
When all the true energy entered his dantian for the last time, it slammed into each other and began to fuse rapidly. The blood-red mist gradually turned into a solid blood-red Earth Core.
This process lasted for a very short time. Soon, Long Chen let out a roar. The thin true qi came out of his mouth and formed a blood red mist around his mouth.
At this moment, the size of the Earth Core in Long Chen's Dantian had shrunk a lot. Compared to before, it was much more solid and powerful.
"Initial Earth Core Realm, success!"
Sensing the surge in his zhenqi, Long Chen knew that he wasn't too far off from Dongfang Tianyu in terms of zhenqi.
Of course, the prerequisite was for him to undergo the powerful Dragon Soul Transformation.
At this moment, his body was filled with power. He tried to stand up in this 50 times gravity, but he realized that it wasn't that hard. The feeling he had now was the same as when he was under the 20 times gravity. If Nangong Cheng could come here, he would be able to fight him again and use the Nine True Dragon Flash again.
"The feeling of becoming stronger is so good."
This way, Long Chen was more confident in winning the battle for the Blue Dragon Battle Halberd. The Blue Dragon Battle Halberd was related to Mo Xiaolang. Therefore, this time, Long Chen had to succeed no matter what.
"There are still three days until the battle," Yang Qi thought. "I'll spend another two days on this shattered planet with fifty times the gravity to perfect the Nine Flashes of the True Dragon. If Xuan Xiao can do it, why can't I?"
The enormous pressure didn't allow Long Chen to relax at all. As soon as he broke through to the Small Success Earth Core realm, he immediately started practicing the True Dragon's Nine Flash. What surprised him was that under this fifty times gravity, his understanding of the True Dragon's Nine Flash had deepened.
"If this continues, the ninth flash won't be a problem."
Only now did Long Chen know that it wasn't that easy to practice a battle skill. His current talent was already quite outstanding. At least, the speed at which he practiced the Nine True Dragon Flash was much faster than Dongfang Xuan Xiao.
After two days, Long Chen had already completed the ninth flash. He had completely mastered the Nine True Dragon Flash and integrated it into his daily battles.
"It's time to go back and give them a big surprise."
Long Chen thought. He tidied himself up and started his journey back. When he returned to the Transfer Palace, Long Chen said to the Blue Dragon Star, "The next time we come here, I will probably save you."
Long Chen felt that this Mo Xiaolang would be the one who would fight with him for the rest of his life. He would be his left and right arms.
After leaving the Star Devil Prison, Yan Honghai greeted him and said, "Young Master Long Chen, Master Xuan Xiao has been here for two days. He is waiting for you over there."
Long Chen nodded and walked towards Dongfang Xuan Xiao's position.
"Why does Young Master Long Chen seem different?" Yan Honghai looked at Long Chen's back and said in surprise.
"He has undergone a transformation." Next to him, another guard murmured.
"Father."
Long Chen came to Dongfang Xuan Xiao's side and called out. At this time, Dongfang Xuan Xiao was meditating with his eyes closed.
"Success." Dongfang Xuan Xiao opened his eyes.
"Yes."
"Then let's go back and see your performance."
Standing up, Dongfang Xuan Xiao looked at Long Chen for a while. He also knew that after going through the matter of Yang Lingqing, Long Chen had really undergone a transformation. This made him look more like a responsible man, not an ignorant youth.
Just like this, they set foot on the road back.
"Xiao Lang, wait for me." Long Chen thought.
At this time, Dongfang Xuan Xiao was also looking in the direction of the Star Devil Prison, lost in thought.
Long Chen had no idea why that was the case.
"Could it be that he also has a brother who is imprisoned inside?" Long Chen's imagination ran wild.
