Chapter 5628 The Defend Character Divine Rune
At this time, Long Chen didn’t need to intentionally focus on recovery. His energy had already recovered to thirty to forty percent. His recovery speed was incredible. Long Chen knew that this had to be related to all these runes.
Long Chen’s Spiritual Strength transformed into a large hand that lightly pressed against the barrier. His head buzzed, and countless runes invaded his mind.
A sharp pain struck his head. He felt like it would split open. But he didn’t stop. He clenched his teeth and let those runes brand themselves into his soul.
Long Chen didn’t know what these runes were doing, nor did he know what he should do with them. He was like a spectator watching those runes form spiritual brands on his soul.
Time slowly passed. There seemed to be endless runes coming out. Long Chen felt like his head would explode.
Even with Long Chen’s vast Spiritual Strength, he was almost unable to endure it. Up until now, he had never seen someone with stronger Spiritual Strength than him.
However, even this vast Spiritual Strength was pushed beyond its limits. Veins throbbed on Long Chen’s head. Just as he felt like he would explode, the torrent of runes came to a stop.
There were now countless runes swirling in Long Chen’s mind. There were as many of them as there were stars in the sky. Long Chen was too dazed to do anything with them.
Long Chen slowly opened his eyes. He was soaked in sweat and pale. He felt like he was on the verge of collapse.
Just then, Long Chen felt danger descend. His gaze turned cold. He contemptuously said, “You’ll only have one chance. Do you want to try it?”
Not far from him, space quivered slightly. A faint figure slowly appeared.
Long Chen sneered inside. Long Zimo was truly a sinister fellow. He was actually planning on sneak attacking him while he was weak.
Fortunately, he had woken up in time, or this fellow really might have attacked. His words scared Long Zimo off. He probably wouldn’t dare to come back again for now.
After all, Long Chen was with Long Tianrui. He would be fighting one against two. He might even die from such a thing. Since he had missed his chance, he wouldn’t try again for now.
Long Chen looked at Long Tianrui. She was standing in front of the barrier, her hands in a seal. Countless runes were flitting around her head. It was as if she was searching for her own unique rune amongst all of them. She seemed to have long since decided upon her own path.
Long Chen sighed and wiped off some sweat. He still had a splitting headache. If Long Zimo had really attacked, he would have been in trouble. Fortunately, this fellow’s guts weren’t that big.
Most importantly, Long Tianrui was in the midst of comprehending these runes. If she was interrupted, it would be a major blow to her.
“Senior…”
Long Chen called out to the Earth Cauldron. However he found that both the Earth Cauldron and Evilmoon were in a strange state. It was like he had lost his connection with them.
Long Chen was startled. Back when he was sucked into that spacetime channel and gone to the primal chaos era’s battlefield, it was the same. Some kind of power had blocked them off. Long Chen hadn’t even been able to sense the primal chaos space.
“How can this be?”
Long Chen was shocked. Could it be that he had entered another spacetime channel? Or was it that these runes ewre blocking them off from him?
He was originally hoping to get some pointers from the Earth Cauldron. He was like a headless fly when it came to these runes. He had no idea what he should do.
Although Long Tianrui had told him about various methods, Long Chen’s intuition told him that none of those methods suited him.
He vaguely had a premonition that his path would definitely be different from everyone else’s. He had to walk a different path to possibly gain anything here.
Although he was also a Jiuli descendant, his bloodline was no longer pure. There was also dragon blood and violet blood. He definitely couldn’t use the Long clan’s methods.
Countless runes danced in his mind, leaving him dizzy. He almost threw up.
Long Chen took a deep breath and did his best to calm down. It was a stark contrast from the state he had broken through the eighth barrier in. At that time, he had been free and practically playing around, but had easily broken through.
However, now because he was focused on breaking through, his mental state was completely different. The more he wanted to break through, the harder it became.
Long Chen concentrated himself and entered a meditative state. He tried to think of nothing else. His heart gradually calmed.
Once he calmed down, Long Chen didn’t think about how to break through. Instead, he stared at the runes quietly. He watched them flow. He just watched without doing anything.
He found that there was no pattern whatsoever in their movements. He was unable to grasp any clues. Eventually, his heart gradually became impatient once more.
Once that happened, the countless runes also began to flow chaotically, and a sharp pain struck his mind.
“There has to be a way. Take it slowly.” Long Chen took a deep breath and stopped staring at the runes that were flowing around like a chaotic sky full of stars. Once he calmed down again, he once more looked at them.
Time passed by. But he still couldn’t find a lead.
Suddenly, he sensed danger. His eyes flew open. Long Zaiye’s sinister face reflected in his eyes.
Long Zaiye had also reached the ninth level. When he saw Long Chen in meditation, he immediately attacked. The Dark Demon Spear was already right in front of Long Chen.
Long Chen caught the tip of the spear. Astral energy exploded. It poured into the Dark Demon Spear like a tsunami.
BOOM!
The Dark Demon Spear shuddered. Long Chen and Long Zaiye both grunted and were blown back. Their hands were bleeding.
Long Chen was shocked inside. Long Zaiye’s power seemed to have undergone some kind of transformation. It was even more ferocious.
“Is it because of the Jiuli immortal characters?”
Long Chen suddenly thought of a possibility. Had Long Zaiye obtained new strength by breaking through these barriers?
“A stupid idiot like you can’t possibly comprehend Jiuli immortal characters! Just die!” Long Zaiye roared and raised his hand. The Dark Demon Spear returned to his hold.
His divine wings appeared, quivering along with his spear. Countless runes flashed. Long Chen’s pupils suddenly shrank upon seeing those runes.
Those runes were ones that came out of the barriers. Long Zaiye was capable of using them?
Just as those runes flashed, a spear-image pierced towards Long Chen like a bolt of lightning. A terrifying sensation of death enveloped Long Chen, making his hair stand on end. The power of this attack was beyond his expectations.
Furthermore, it was so fast that he had no time to summon the Eight Star Battle Armor or ignite his astral energy.
Just as Long Chen felt this mortal danger, an image appeared in Long Chen’s mind. Jiuli characters flowed into the Defend character.
