Chapter 5809: A Cruel World
*Buzz*
After leaving the Purple Blood Clan and advancing for half an hour, crossing an invisible barrier, Long Chen suddenly felt a shock throughout his entire body.
"The laws of the Emperor Heaven have become more perfect."
Long Chen noticed that the power of the laws of the Emperor Heaven was completely different from when he entered the Purple Blood Clan.
When Long Chen arrived, the laws of heaven and earth were constantly self-improving, but upon entering the Purple Blood Clan, he could clearly sense that the spiritual energy of the Purple Blood Clan was much denser than the outside world.
However, what was different now was that not only was the spiritual energy more abundant outside, but all kinds of energies in heaven and earth were also more plentiful. It was as if the world had entered a phase of self-repair, and Long Chen felt the resurgence of vast chaotic energy.
"Back when you shattered the Xuan Realm of the Heavens, it was equivalent to breaking the final chain that bound heaven and earth, allowing them to recover, with the Nine Heavens restarting and small worlds emerging. Soon, the laws inherent to these small worlds will be crushed by the power of the Nine Heavens," said the Gourd Cauldron.
"Senior, with the spiritual energy so abundant and the laws so complete, can I advance to become a Human Emperor now?" Long Chen asked, his excitement evident.
"The self-repair of the Nine Heavens is entering its final stage, but it's not completed yet. You'll need to wait a bit longer. When the laws of the Nine Heavens are fully restored, at that time, the Nine Heavens and the Ten Earths will be the same as they were in the Primordial Chaos Era. It will be the best time to advance to the Human Emperor level, and a new era will dawn for the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths," the Gourd Cauldron explained.
"But what if I'm too late, and someone else has already absorbed all the spiritual energy, laws, and various powers?" Long Chen couldn't help but worry.
"Do you think the fish in the sea will drink up all the seawater?" the Gourd Cauldron retorted, slightly exasperated.
Long Chen felt a bit embarrassed. It was mainly because he had been impoverished for too long, always in a state of hunger, that his mindset of safeguarding his gains had never changed.
"The Purple Blood Clan and the Demon Clan clashed, and you gained the Heavenly Dao Fruits, the Dragon Bone Evil Moon absorbed the power of blood souls, and the nameplate absorbed the power of slaughter. However, do you really think these are all there is?" the Gourd Cauldron asked.
"What do you mean?" Long Chen was surprised.
"Regardless of whether it's the Demon Clan experts or the disciples of your Purple Blood Clan who died, more than ninety percent of their strength will return to heaven and earth. The power you can seize is only a small part of it. Do you think the restoration of the laws of heaven and earth is solely due to the recovery of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths themselves? In fact, wars like the one between the Purple Blood Clan and the Demon Clan are happening in every corner of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. Those fallen experts are returning their power to heaven and earth. Heaven and earth receive nourishment from this power, which repairs their own damages, perfects their laws, and forms a cycle. If this continues, I believe this world will return to its primordial state very soon. Only in such a state can true experts be nurtured. At the same time, the real monsters, I believe they have already begun to awaken gradually, but when the power of heaven and earth hasn't reached its peak, they won't appear," the Gourd Cauldron explained.
"Why not? Don't they want to come out and seize the opportunity?" Long Chen couldn't help but ask.
"Because they are too powerful. If they appear now, they will be captured by the power of the Heavenly Dao, which will forcibly extract their strength to nourish heaven and earth. However, when the power of heaven and earth reaches its peak, heaven and earth won't extract their strength to repair themselves. At that time, you will see the true monsters," the Gourd Cauldron said.
"Wow, does that mean we'll be in the most powerful era?" Long Chen was excited.
"Of course, it's the best era, but it's also the worst era," the Gourd Cauldron remarked.
The good part is that resources are abundant, and there's plenty of spiritual energy. The bad part is that there are too many powerful individuals, making competition fierce and bloody. There's hardly any room for the weak to survive.
"Good and bad don't concern me. I don't want to conquer and rule. I hope to reunite with my family, spend time with my brothers and loved ones, and find a quiet place to live a peaceful life," Long Chen said.
The Cauldron of Heaven and Earth dismissed it nonchalantly, "Now that the Nine Heavens have connected, the flames of war have swept every corner, and the enemy is numerous. Where can you hide?"
"When have I ever hidden? Every time, I face challenges head-on. If the entire world can't give me peace, then I'll make the whole world quiet," Long Chen gazed into the distance and said calmly.
His voice was calm, but it carried a strong sense of killing intent. Because what the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth said was true, with the Nine Heavens now connected, there was no more secluded paradise.
The thought of the kind-hearted spirit race being drawn into this ruthless war pained Long Chen. However, in the vast expanse of the Nine Heavens, he felt powerless to protect them. The only thing he could do now was to keep making himself stronger until the day he had the power to change the entire world, providing shelter for his loved ones.
"For now, stop thinking about that. During your time in the Purple Blood Clan, you've become somewhat disconnected from the laws of this world. You must quickly adapt to the new laws of the Heavenly Dao, or your combat power won't be able to shine. This isn't the Demon Clan's battlefield; here, even a mid-stage Divine Emperor might be a threat to you, let alone a lower-stage Divine Emperor," the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth cautioned.
Although Long Chen had made tremendous progress under Long ZhanTian's guidance, his control over techniques and powers had improved significantly, but the larger environment had changed. If he couldn't stay in sync with the pulse of the times, even his immense strength wouldn't shine without the blessing of the Heavenly Dao. The Divine Emperors, who possessed the Divine Light Crown, were receiving blessings from the Heavenly Dao. In the past, this suppression wasn't as evident, but with the great changes in the world, the power to control the laws of the Heavenly Dao had increased significantly for Divine Emperors. For Long Chen, who lacked the blessing of the Heavenly Dao, this would create absolute suppression. At that time, Long Chen might be helpless even with his immense strength.
The war between the Purple Blood Clan and the Demon Clan was intense because their small worlds were adjacent, and they were using each other's power as whetstones. The disadvantage of this approach was that everyone was like frogs in a well. The progress wasn't that great. However, the advantage was that everything was under control. They could attack or defend, advance or retreat.
But some forces didn't have this condition. They could only rush into the Heavenly Emperor Heaven as soon as possible, which made it easy for them to clash with other forces entering the Heavenly Emperor Heaven. However, such conflicts were uncontrollable. One could easily face extermination. After all, no one knew what kind of force they would encounter. Once two forces clashed, unless their strengths and scales were evenly matched, it would turn into a brutal battle with no end.
The disciples of the Luo family had completed their bloodline awakening, and they were entering the Heavenly Emperor Heaven to receive the blessings of the laws. They proceeded cautiously and safely, step by step. But for other forces without this condition, they had to rush into the Heavenly Emperor Heaven. If they didn't encounter any issues, that was one thing. But once they encountered a group of mid-stage or late-stage Divine Emperors, it would be a complete disaster for them.
"Alright, Senior, please protect me while I integrate the new Heavenly Dao laws. I'll only need a few hours," Long Chen said.
Integrating completely new Heavenly Dao laws might take several days or even weeks for others, but it wasn't difficult for Long Chen. He just needed a few hours.
"Rumble..."
However, just as Long Chen finished speaking, there was a sudden thunderous noise in the distance, and a terrifying aura began to rise.
