Chapter 1398

Just as Long Chen gathered the Dragonblood Legion, Li Tianxuan came to find him . He gravely warned, “Think carefully about this . That place is like a pool of muddy water . It involves many things . ”

Long Chen was startled . He couldn’t figure out what exactly Li Tianxuan was saying . An entrance to the Spirit World had been opened, and adventurers had already gone to test their luck . How was it a pool of muddy water?

If he said that it was dangerous, that would make sense . But a pool of muddy water? That was dumbfounding .

“Let him go . ” The Xuantian Tower’s voice rang out .

“But senior…”

“There’s nothing to say . Long Chen is well aware that that place is dangerous . Since he wants to go, it means he has his reasons . Since you’ve decided to let go, you should let go completely!”

Li Tianxuan’s expression was helpless, while Long Chen’s expression was questioning . It seemed they knew something but refused to tell him .

Once Long Chen left, Li Tianxuan stood in the Xuantian Tower . The Xuantian Tower’s ancient voice rang out once more .

“From the Eastern Wasteland to the Central Plains, Long Chen has never walked the common path . Even if you told him everything, you wouldn’t change his decision . Instead, you would simply draw karma to yourself . In my eyes, that is very foolish . ”

“But senior, the Spirit World involves so many different things . Once Long Chen enters…”

“No one can control Long Chen’s fate . No one is qualified to guide him down his path . Since you’ve chosen to leave the Xuantian Dao Sect’s fate to him, you should give him free rein . Sometimes speaking is an instinct, while not speaking is the truly wise choice . ” The Xuantian Tower’s voice was completely calm as if this was an extremely minor affair .

“Disciple was foolish . Thank you for your guidance . ” Li Tianxuan took a deep breath .

“Your concern caused your thoughts to become muddled . You’ve lost your initial transcendent attitude . When you decided to give the Xuantian Dao Sect to Long Chen, you were someone outside the game . But once you left it to him, you became someone inside the game . The viewpoints between the two are immense . People inside the game see a mountain as a mountain, water as water . But people outside the game know a mountain is not just a mountain, and water is not just water . ”

A spark of comprehension appeared in Li Tianxuan’s eyes, and he knelt on the ground, respectfully saying, “Many thanks for your guidance, senior . ”

The Xuantian Tower had been the divine item of the Xuantian Dao Sect’s patriarch . Even the Xuan Master had to call themself disciple in front of it .

“There’s no need to thank me . If you want to thank someone, thank Long Chen, or perhaps the High Priest of the Wine God Palace . It was his wine that allowed your mental realm to rise to an unprecedented height, while I just gave you some slight guidance . You’ve reached the peak of Life Star and can enter the Netherworld whenever you want . But the Xuantian Dao Sect still needs you for now . Your master is at a critical juncture, so you can’t attempt to break through . ”

“I know . ” Li Tianxuan nodded .

“As for Long Chen’s matter, don’t bother with him . Just keep the attitude of a spectator . The lines of fate are in chaos, and the world is about to change . You are not this era’s main character, so being a spectator isn’t necessarily something bad,” said the Xuantian Tower .

“Could it be that even if I entered the Netherpassage realm, I still wouldn’t be able to play a leading role in this era?” Li Tianxuan bitterly smiled .

“Child, with your talent as an acquired rank nine Celestial who is qualified to attack the Netherpassage realm in just eight hundred years, you can already count as a genius . However, this stage is not for you . So, just be content as a spectator!”

“Alright, I’ll listen to you . I’ll be a spectator,” said Li Tianxuan helplessly .

Li Tianxuan was over eight hundred years old, but for Life Star experts, a single round of seclusion might last over a hundred years or several hundred years . So, he was actually very young .

The other heavenly geniuses in the same generation as him had all slowly fallen or been thrown so far behind that they would never catch up . Recently, he had touched the door to the Netherpassage realm, and so a competitive drive had been ignited in him again .

Based on the Xuantian Tower’s words, even if he reached that realm, he would still just be a spectator . That was quite the blow .

However, the Xuantian Tower was the first generation patriarch’s divine item . Li Tianxuan felt great reverence for it .

“Then should the Reincarnation Mirror be sent to escort Long Chen?” asked Li Tianxuan .

This time, the Xuantian Tower didn’t bother answering . Li Tianxuan couldn’t help but blush, and he hastily said, “Disciple knows his mistake . ”

…

“Boss, when did you get such an amazing flying boat?” Guo Ran excitedly cried out as he drove the flying boat . This was thousands of times better than any flying boat he had ever driven .

The entire Dragonblood Legion was on the flying boat . But this time, Long Chen only brought the Dragonblood Legion . He hadn’t brought Hua Shiyu, Zhao Ziyan, and the others .

He had noticed that they were slightly different from the Dragonblood warriors . That was because they had originally been peak heavenly geniuses, and they lacked a kind of determination to press forward even in the face of death .

As for the Dragonblood Legion, both the old Dragonblood warriors and the newer Dragonmark warriors had been lacking in talent .

The only reason they had been able to climb to their current height was because they had worked as if their lives depended on it . They possessed the resolve to put their lives on the line . As they hadn’t been blessed with anything, they weren’t afraid of losing it .

Geniuses all possessed a feeling of superiority . They were unable to truly maintain the same heart as the Dragonblood Legion .

Although they listened to Long Chen’s orders, and there was no need to question their loyalty, there was simply something that couldn’t be clearly explained lacking within them .

Because they were lacking that thing, in the end, they were unable to be one with the Dragonblood Legion .

Furthermore, this trip to the Spirit World was not a vacation . There would definitely be a bloody slaughter . Thus, Long Chen didn’t want to implicate anyone outside the Dragonblood Legion .

This trip to the Spirit World was to repay his debts . If the expert from the Spirit World hadn’t bestowed him with the divine life elixir, he’d have long since died . Wilde would also have died . And it was unknown just many of the people beside him right now would also be dead .

He owed that expert a huge debt . As for the Dragonblood Legion, they were his life and death brothers, so they naturally went with him . He didn’t want to draw anyone else into his problems .

“This flying boat was gifted to me . ”

Long Chen lazily reclined in a chair in the control room . Meng Qi and Tang Wan-er were pouring tea for him, and he received a cup from Meng Qi .

“Gifted? Who was so nice?” asked Guo Ran .

“Who knows how many hearts of beauties he seduced this time . Being gifted a single flying boat isn’t much . Am I right, Master Long San?” Tang Wan-er raised her brows at Long Chen . Her bright eyes were locked onto his, seeming to piece into his heart .

Long Chen almost spat out his tea . Smiling a smile that wasn’t a smile, he said, “Girl, with your little bit of Spiritual Strength, you shouldn’t try using spiritual peeping arts on me . ”

He didn’t know what she was thinking . She was using her Spiritual Strength to sense if he was lying, but her Spiritual Strength wasn’t able to do such a thing to him .

“Scoundrel, stop changing the subject! Speak, did you seduce any beauties this time?!” Tang Wan-er was embarrassed, and her embarrassment quickly turned into rage . She grabbed Long Chen’s collar .

“Without even thinking about it, I know it definitely happened . If he didn’t do such a thing, he wouldn’t be the boss,” said Guo Ran . Perhaps he was thinking of the pain he had suffered when being tempered by lightning .

Long Chen raged, “You! Just fly the boat!”

“Don’t worry boss, with my technique, I can fly with my eyes closed . Sister Wan-er, I’m willing to bet that this time, boss seduced at least three beauties on his trip to Pill Valley . If you don’t believe me, just keep questioning him . Of course, with boss’s calm, just asking isn’t useful . Without a bit of torture, he won’t speak the truth . So how about this: if it’s less than three, I’ll eat this flying boat,” promised Guo Ran .

“Big sister Meng Qi, you come and try!” Tang Wan-er kept a tight grip on Long Chen as she called out to Meng Qi .

Long Chen clenched his teeth when he saw Guo Ran’s pleased expression . It seemed that this little fellow’s confidence had inflated . Now he even dared to con his boss .

“Stop messing around . Long Chen went to Pill Valley for proper things . He wouldn’t act as unreasonably as you’re saying!” Meng Qi shook her head .

“Meng Qi, thank you for your trust . You really treat me the best . ” Long Chen was extremely moved . Meng Qi truly was the best .

“However, I’m very curious, is that Pill Fairy very beautiful?” Meng Qi’s beautiful eyes contained a teasing light .

“ . . . ”

The change in subject came so suddenly that Long Chen was caught off guard . He was still filled with gratitude toward her when she pulled the subject right back .

Only Meng Qi, Tang Wan-er, Guo Ran, Gu Yang, Li Qi, and Song Mingyuan knew about his trip to Pill Valley . The other Dragonblood warriors had no idea .

“Boss, is that Pill Fairy really like a real-life fairy? Did you manage to seduce her- aiya!” Guo Ran turned back with a mischievous smile when he was suddenly slapped by Long Chen .

Long Chen’s sudden attack caused Meng Qi and Tang Wan-er to let out startled cries . Guo Ran’s words were cut off in the middle, and the control mechanism in his hand tilted . The flying boat was in the midst of passing through two large mountains, and as a result, it tilted and crashed into one .

Boom! A large jag appeared on the mountain, and the flying boat shuddered violently . Fortunately, its defenses automatically activated, and it wasn’t damaged .

“Sorry boss, sorry! I’ll properly fly the boat . You guys can chat . ” Seeing Long Chen’s dark expression, Guo Ran hastily turned away, making sure not to say another word .

The sound of Gu Yang’s cursing rang out from above . The collision just now had been especially aggravating for him and the others .

This flying boat was something Long Chen had stolen from Pill Valley, but the outside had already been disguised . The original markings had been removed so that it no longer looked like Pill Valley’s flying boat .

Just as Tang Wan-er was interrogating Long Chen for details about the Pill Fairy, the flying boat slowly descended to where the Heaven Devouring Forest had once been .
