Chapter 6803 Heart-Devil Consumes Soul
“He left me a gift?” The white-robed Long Chen talked to himself. A flicker of heat crossed his icy gaze, as if he had seen a priceless treasure.
“Who are you?” the Dark Master asked, his expression darkening.
“Such pure dark energy and dense death aura! You exist for me!” the white-robed Long Chen exclaimed, his voice tinged with a rare touch of excitement.
Never before had the Dark Master been regarded as prey.
“How dare you blaspheme this lord?! Die!” the Dark Master shouted.
The dark energy he had been planning to use to possess Long Chen condensed into a black spear that shot at the white-robed Long Chen.
In response, the white-robed Long Chen raised his hand. When a white bone throne materialized behind him, a black vortex opened before him.
The spear vanished into the vortex.
As a result, the bone throne shuddered, black lines crawling across its surface. It seemed to pulse with life, its aura intensifying.
“Purgatory laws?! What connection do you have to the Purgatory Master?!” the Dark Master asked, shocked.
“Who the fuck is the Purgatory Master?” the white-robed Long Chen cursed, sounding a bit surprised. “Well, I’m close to a breakthrough, so I don’t have time to waste on you. Be suppressed!”
The white-robed Long Chen formed hand seals, and the bone throne shuddered. As the vortex grew, its suction force dragged the Dark Master inside.
The Dark Master roared, but as a mere wisp of divine will, he was far weaker than the soul fragment that had followed Long Chen. He was devoured instantly.
“Fuck!”
The Dark Master howled in fury, but he couldn’t stop himself from being devoured. Even as a mere fragment, it still represented the Dark Master. He had never suffered such humiliation before.
Still, with this soul fragment devoured, the Dark Master would never know such disgrace, or he would truly die of rage.
“There’s even more energy...” the white-robed Long Chen muttered.
Just as he was about to enter the primal chaos space and take the spider rune, the primal chaos space quivered, giving a strong warning.
The white-robed Long Chen frowned and slowly undid his hand seals.
He glanced at Evilmoon in his spiritual space and smiled mockingly.
“This is the price for following trash. Sooner or later, you’ll see. Following me is your wisest choice!” he declared.
He slowly closed his eyes, and the white of his robes faded. Then, Long Chen collapsed to the ground. The black aura oozing out of him had vanished, as if nothing had happened at all.
...
Long Chen was unconscious for three days and three nights. For most, facing the Dark Master would shatter the soul. Thus, even though Long Chen survived, his mind had been driven far past its limits.
When Long Chen woke up, he felt like a new person. The black qi bothering him was completely gone.
“Playing this game with me?” Long Chen sneered mockingly.
Turning to Yao Linger, he asked, “Did that fellow come?”
“Yes. He devoured part of the Dark Master’s soul. This is the scene.”
Yao Linger showed Long Chen how the white-robed Long Chen had fought the Dark Master.
“I knew he wouldn’t let that piece of soul go so easily,” Long Chen said as he nodded.
In truth, Long Chen had detected the mark that the Dark Master had hidden in his soul.
However, erasing this mark would be very difficult, and doing so would damage his soul. But if left alone, it would be like a maggot on his soul, consuming his Spiritual Strength to strengthen itself.
It was a thorny problem. He had planned to ask for Bai Yujing’s help, using the Tiger Venerate Scepter to get rid of that problem.
But then, his Purgatory Eyes caught the faintest fluctuation.
That was when he realized his heart-devil was watching, taking note of everything.
He guessed the heart-devil sought the Dark Master’s soul, so he chose to gamble.
As expected, the heart-devil appeared and consumed the last trace of the Dark Master’s soul.
“That white bone throne transformed after devouring the Dark Master’s soul. My heart-devil will only grow stronger. I wonder if this was wise,” Long Chen sighed.
His heart-devil was truly terrifying. The throne’s pressure was no weaker than Long Can’s, and it had transformed after absorbing the soul.
The heart-devil’s aura was overwhelming. Even at his peak, Long Chen doubted he could win.
With the Dark Master’s soul in hand, the heart-devil likely surpassed him. Long Chen felt a faint regret for giving him this chance.
Yet without this, he would never have known the heart-devil’s true condition. It was simply a matter of gains and losses.
“His realm is the same as mine, yet he claims he’s about to break through. Does he not need the right timing, or is this breakthrough unrelated to cultivation base?” Long Chen muttered.
A sense of danger rose in him.
“Big Brother Long Chen, he also wanted to steal that spider rune, but he was scared off by the primal chaos space,” reported Yao Linger.
Long Chen immediately checked on the primal chaos space. This place was still a wreck.
However, the giant cracks were pulling back together. After all, not all the corpses from the last battle had been devoured. There was still enough fertilizer to heal the primal chaos space.
“I paid a heavy price this time, all for this rune. Don’t disappoint me, or I’ll kick you between the legs!” Long Chen threatened the floating spider rune.
With a wave of his hand, Long Chen summoned Cang Lu.
“You better show your value!”
