Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts

Chapter 6072 Risking Everything

The gate opened, unleashing a bolt of divine lightning that pierced straight through Long Chen.

But it didn’t injure him. Instead, a crushing force locked him in place. Other than not being able to move a muscle, Long Chen was fine. The light surged with thunderforce, so pure it was almost sacred.

Not good!

A chill crawled down Long Chen’s spine. He didn’t know what this was, but with his understanding of heavenly tribulations, he knew one thing: it was meant to kill him.

“Pull me out!”

Unable to move, Long Chen called Lei Linger.

A lightning chain shot toward him. But the moment it touched the divine light, it melted away.

“This divine light is filled with pure thunderforce! Absorb it! If you can absorb it all, Long Chen will be freed!” shouted Evilmoon.

Without hesitation, millions of Evilmoon’s scales launched into the divine light, trying to drain its power.

But before they could gain ground, another gate opened, and another beam of divine light struck Long Chen. Now two beams pinned him down, doubling the pressure. He felt like he was drowning at the bottom of the sea.

Then another gate opened. And another. One after another until all eight gates had unleashed their divine beams onto him.

And then—

The gates exploded.

The tribulation was gone, but the beams of light remained.

The eight beams started to shrink. As they did, their pressure soared. Space warped violently around Long Chen.

Long Chen spat out blood. He was almost crushed to bits.

“Quick, absorb it all! Otherwise, he will die!” Evilmoon roared.

Evilmoon’s scales pierced into the divine light and inhaled their energy.

Following it, Lei Linger and Yao Ling-er were absorbing energy as quickly as they could. As they did so, the pressure on Long Chen lightened.

Long Chen’s divine ring spun. He manifested the full expanse of his astral domain and started to absorb the thunderforce directly.

“The sixth level!”

“Seventh level!”

“Eighth level!”

Layer after layer, the energy poured in. But even Long Chen’s terrifying rate of absorption couldn’t keep up with the power of the beams of light.

Even with all three of them devouring the thunderforce, the divine beams outpaced them.

Cracks tore across Long Chen’s body, and blood soaked his robes. The pressure only kept building.

“Boss, we’re coming!”

Gu Yang roared and charged over. His body was already brimming with thunderforce—any more and he would explode. But he didn’t care.

The Dragonblood warriors surged forward, grabbing at the beams and absorbing everything they could. In seconds, Gu Yang coughed blood.

“Release your thunderforce and absorb this!” shouted Yue Zifeng.

They all responded, unleashing magical arts and divine abilities to purge the thunderforce within their bodies—clearing space for more.

Since the heavenly tribulation was not over, their bodies could still absorb thunderforce. They could replace the original thunderforce they had absorbed with even stronger, purer thunderforce.

The Dragonblood warriors absorbed as much as they could. But it came at a cost. The instant it entered their bodies, they spat blood. They had to summon their dragon soul manifestations to survive. Without them, their mortal shells would shatter.

Even with their help, the divine beams didn’t stop. Long Chen was still being crushed.

“We’re coming too!” Mo Yang shouted, leading the dragon race’s junior generation flying over.

Millions and millions of experts followed them.

“Only absorb as much as you can, or you’ll die!” warned Gu Yang.

But none of them listened. Even the weakest disciples rushed in, risking everything. To them, Long Chen wasn’t just a warrior—he was their savior. Even if they had to throw away their lives, they would reduce the burden on Long Chen.

Millions and millions of dragon experts joined in, absorbing this terrifying thunderforce and replacing their original thunderforce with it.

With their support, Long Chen finally had a chance to breathe. The twisting space around him also settled.

He was once more able to absorb the thunderforce. His divine rung spun, and his starry sea manifested. A massive vortex took shape as it greedily devoured the surrounding thunderforce.

“This is bad! There’s too much energy! Yao Ling-er and I can’t take in anymore! Think of something!” shouted Evilmoon.

Evilmoon’s scales were now densely covered in lightning runes. No one knew how much thunderforce it had absorbed, but it was clearly reaching its limit.

Only Lei Linger still showed no signs of being full. She continued devouring the thunderforce voraciously, growing stronger by the second. But even with her increased strength, she couldn’t keep up with the rapidly surging energy from the beams of light.

Despite her efforts, panic was written across her face. She was already doing everything she could, and it still wasn’t enough.

Meanwhile, the dragon race’s disciples had reached their limits. Blood sprayed from their mouths, yet not a single one retreated. They held their ground in the face of death, refusing to fall back.

Even Gu Yang’s furious shouts couldn’t sway them. In their hearts, Long Chen was akin to a god.

When Long Chen destroyed the Sovereign King Dragon Crown, he returned the karmic luck of the dragon race to them. Their reverence for him ran so deep that even if they had to die ten thousand times for him, they would do so without regret.

In fact, they considered it an honor to fight and die for him.

Seeing the dragon race’s disciples about to explode from this power, Long Chen gritted his teeth.

“If I die, I die!”

Long Chen formed a set of hand seals. The starry sea behind him shuddered violently, and the stars started to align, forming a long starry river. From a distance, it resembled a massive “One” character.

“Starry Sea Infinity-One! Absorb!” roared Long Chen.

Astral energy exploded from him like a tempest. He didn’t care if his starry sea could handle it. Would he explode? Would his starry sea collapse? At this moment, he had no other choice.

A massive vortex erupted from the “One” character, like a celestial whale inhaling an ocean. All the beams of divine light were instantly devoured.

However, every mote of divine light that touched Long Chen’s body left a bloody hole in it.

“Boss!” Gu Yang and the others screamed.

“Refine!” Long Chen roared.

Within his starry sea, the “One” character disintegrated, and the sea returned to its original form.

Suddenly, eight thick lightning pillars burst through the starry sea, thrashing wildly in an attempt to escape.

Long Chen’s astral energy flared. His dragon blood, his seven-colored Supreme Blood, and his violet blood all ignited simultaneously, transforming into dragons, blades, and nets that surged to contain the lightning pillars.

Lei Linger also charged into the starry sea without hesitation, locking onto the lightning. Seeing that, Yao Ling-er followed without a word, diving into the fray as well.
