Chapter 1160
As more and more sea demon corpses piled in the primal chaos space, they were all devoured by the black soil and released boundless life energy .
This life energy had nowhere to go . The Iron Spruce Oaks had grown to their peak and couldn’t absorb any more life energy . Hence, the surplus ended up condensing into a faint mist .
“This mist contains life energy!” Long Chen was surprised to sense the life energy fluctuations within the mist . He quickly gathered more corpses .
Eventually, ninth rank sea demons began to appear, increasing the pressure . Ninth rank sea demons had powerful defenses and attacks, and their numbers were insane .
“Retreat to the first defensive line!” shouted Long Chen . Everyone fell back to the cliffside . The cliff was three hundred meters high, and the water was unable to creep over it . However, to a ninth rank sea demon, such a cliff was nothing more than a small stair .
Once the disciples were there, they changed formations, forming a line . They attacked the ninth rank sea demons . Each faction had a group of people focused on gathering the Neidans .
Ninth rank sea demon’s Neidans were good things that couldn’t be wasted . But no one went for their corpses .
However, the bodies of ninth rank sea demons were too huge, and that would affect the battle . Long Chen was constantly gathering them .
Seeing Long Chen constantly working to clean up the corpses, the Xuantian Dao Sect’s disciples were filled with admiration . Despite being a peerless expert and a leader of hundreds of thousands of disciples, he actually took it upon himself to do the work of cleaning up after everyone . There probably wasn’t a single heavenly genius capable of being as low key as that .
“Senior apprentice-brother Long Chen, how could such work be left for you? Let me handle it . ” Some of the disciples couldn’t bear to see a peerless expert like Long Chen cleaning up after them . Their faces burned, and they started helping .
“Hey, stop! Don’t worry about it, I’ll handle this . Your spatial rings are limited and will fill up quickly, plus you’d have to go out far to get the corpses . But don’t worry, I prepared a large number of storage devices before this, so it’s best if I do it . ”
Long Chen immediately stopped them from helping . These corpses were his treasures! He couldn’t give them to others .
“Then senior apprentice-brother Long Chen, how about you hand the storage devices to me? For you to personally do such a thing… is a bit unsuitable,” said a disciple .
“How is it unsuitable? You’re spilling blood and risking your lives to kill these sea demons . Why can’t I pick up a bit of trash? Go, get back to work . ” Long Chen flapped his hand at them .
Those disciples were all filled with admiration . Quite a few people stealthily glanced at Gao Xianyang in the distance, comparing him to Long Chen . His hands were clasped behind his back as he arrogantly looked over the battlefield, not helping at all . Thus, a contemptuous expression appeared on quite a few people’s faces .
Long Chen was the number one disciple of the Xuantian Dao Sect . Such an amazing figure was personally cleaning up the battlefield . Did Gao Xianyang not feel embarrassed to act so arrogant?
In comparison, they all liked Long Chen’s way of deeply reserving himself . This was why people with real skills liked to be low key . They had the power to stand out at any moment .
In reality, how was Long Chen being low key? He was happily profiting . With this many corpses entering his primal chaos space, the mist in the air grew even denser .
After a few hours, the sea demons became even more berserk . Mid ninth rank sea demons also appeared, increasing the pressure on the disciples .
They once more fell back, arriving at the center of the funnel terrain that Li Qi and Song Mingyuan had made . Their defensive zone had shrunk a great deal here, making the defensive line stronger .
“Guo Ran, there are too many ninth rank sea demons . Clean them up a bit,” shouted Long Chen .
“Alright, boss! I swept through- cough, don’t kick me, I’m going!” Guo Ran had been about to shout his slogan when Long Chen raised his foot . Guo Ran immediately shot off .
Using a huge crossbow, Guo Ran shot a dozen arrows out at the sea demons . Huge explosions rang out as blood and flesh flew through the air . Huge holes a hundred miles wide appeared in the encroaching sea demon army .
Seeing all the ninth rank sea demons in those areas being killed instantly, the disciples were stunned . Although they had seen how powerful Guo Ran’s exploding arrows could be, their power was now absolutely horrifying .
A dozen arrows emptied a great portion of the battlefield . Long Chen waved a hand and gathered their broken corpses .
While he extracted the corpses, he also pulled out their Neidans . The corpses landed in the black soil while he kept the Neidans stored away .
As more time passed, more sea demons appeared . Now, there were no longer any sea demons below the ninth rank . The battlefield was pitch-black with huge sea demons .
Late ninth rank ones had appeared as well . Meng Qi had summoned thirty-six housepets to assist in the battle, and she finally let Cloud, who had been impatient from the start, start killing the ninth rank sea demons . It had already advanced to the mid eighth rank, and killing these sea demons was incredibly easy for it . Even mid ninth rank sea demons could be killed in one blow .
Wang Zhen had also revealed his terrifying power . Thirteen thousand ninth rank insects had appeared . They charged through the sea demon army, completely unstoppable .
Hua Shiyu was surrounded by flower petals . The powerful armor of the sea demons was as weak as tofu in front of her . They were killed in droves .
Tang Wan-er had also summoned a sea of wind blades . Just like Hua Shiyu, she unleashed large-scale death on the sea demons .
Because there were too many sea demons, even Yue Zifeng, Gu Yang, Song Mingyuan, Li Qi, and the others were forced to participate . With even rank six Celestials attacking, the sea demons were annihilated as quickly as they came .
Fan Song was scared witless . Even his old opponents, Hua Shiyu and Wang Zhen, were releasing shocking battle prowess . They could now annihilate him instantly .
As for Gao Xianyang and Hu Guishan, they were shocked, furious, and envious . Even their eyes turned red from envy . They were completely unable to understand how they had become so powerful .
If Long Chen was powerful, that was fine . After all, he was a monster . But now every person by Long Chen’s side was also terrifying . Even Wang Zhen and Hua Shiyu were stunning .
At this time, Gao Xianyang also attacked . Sword Qi swept out . His killing power was also amazing, but when compared to the likes of Tang Wan-er, Hua Shiyu, and Wang Zhen, it was lackluster .
Those disciples following Gao Xianyang had somewhat odd expressions, but in the midst of this fierce battle, they didn’t deliberately display them .
However, Gao Xianyang’s gaze was icy-cold . Looking at Long Chen and the others, his expression was extremely gloomy .
Long Chen didn’t pay attention to the changes in Gao Xianyang’s expression . He was busy gathering the sea demons corpses . The mist in the primal chaos space grew so dense that he practically couldn’t see his hand if he stuck it in front of his face .
This mist was a condensed version of life energy . As more corpses were devoured by the black soil, it grew denser, until…
Drip .
Suddenly, a light sound rang within the primal chaos space and immediately drew Long Chen’s attention . He hastily went in to search for the source of the sound and saw a little sapling beside the Heavenly Dao Tree that was only a foot tall .
This little sapling had appeared without him sensing anything . It had no branches . Instead, its crown abruptly split into three leaves .
The leaves were the size of a palm and emerald green . They shone softly, giving him a comfortable feeling . It was like looking at them could allow a person to forget all their struggles .
There were veins on the leaves that looked just like ordinary leaves, and yet they contained some kind of ineffable Dao charm .
Drip .
Just at this moment, the dewdrops atop one of the leaves drew together and fell to the ground .
When the drop fell to the ground, it was rapidly absorbed, filling the primal chaos space with life energy .
Drip .
Another drop condensed . Long Chen reached out his hand and caught it .
“This… this is… divine life elixir?” Long Chen was filled with shock as he sensed the life energy in the drop .
This drop was practically the same as the miraculous healing liquid that the Spirit World’s expert had given him all those years ago . But the life energy within this one was many times stronger .
“I’ve become able to condense divine life elixir?” Long Chen’s heart pounded . He quickly took out three jade bottles and placed them below the sapling, gathering the divine life elixir that fell from its leaves .
Long Chen suddenly understood what was going on . When the primal chaos space’s life energy accumulated to a certain level of saturation, it would give birth to this small tree to release the divine life elixir .
This process was slow . He saw that condensing one drop took a few breaths, and after gathering three drops, no more came .
“Hm? Is there not enough energy?” Long Chen suddenly thought of the crux of the problem .
“Boss, the line’s getting shaky!”
Suddenly, Guo Ran’s cry drew him out of his contemplation . His mind exited the primal chaos space and returned to reality . Seeing the scene in front of him, he jumped in shock .
At some unknown point, the ninth rank sea demons had begun coming in literal waves . They stacked on top of each other, forming a true beast tide . It was impossible to see the land any longer, as it was drowned out by the beast tide .
Even Wilde was fighting now, but he was still unable to stop these waves of sea demons that seemed to be pushed onward by some mysterious energy .
“Star Fall!”
Without even thinking about it, Long Chen summoned a Star Fall . A large globe fell amongst the sea demon tide .
BOOM! The battlefield became empty . Thousands of miles of sea demons were killed .
“Boss is mighty!” The Dragonblood Legion cheered . Long Chen’s attack had cleaned up the battlefield in an instant . Now the land was a mass of flesh and blood . It was a frightening scene .
Gao Xianyang was originally filled with envy, but Long Chen’s attack completely broke that envy .
His envy transformed into terror . After not seeing Long Chen for just such a short time, he had become so terrifying . He no longer had the qualifications to even challenge Long Chen .
With a wave of his hand, Long Chen pulled in the broken bits of flesh . Even the Neidans had been broken under the power of his Star Fall, but he didn’t mind . Just getting the flesh was enough .
As more flesh poured into the primal chaos space, through the black soil’s transformation, the divine life elixir began to slowly drip once again .
