Chapter 6800 Heaven-Shaking Discovery

“Big Brother Long Chen!” Yao Linger answered Long Chen’s summons, appearing above him.

“Yao Linger, do you remember how the Earth Cauldron helped me see the star palace?” asked Long Chen.

“Of course.”

“Good. I’m about to trace her soul! Try to imitate what the Earth Cauldron did and help me out,” instructed Long Chen.

“I-I don’t know if I can do that,” Yao Linger said, tension in her voice.

Although she possessed Heaven Earth power from the Earth Cauldron, she lacked confidence in herself.

“It’s fine. At worst, I lose part of my soul and will recover in a few days. But if it works, we will gain much,” Long Chen said, offering a brief smile.

“Alright, I’ll do my best,” Yao Linger promised.

Long Chen knew he only got one chance. He had seized her mind once, but a second attempt would be impossible. She was a vicious and crazy person who would rather die than be captured again.

Also, she was too powerful, able to reach out to the outside world from within the Seven Treasure Space. That threat could not remain.

As the Demon Moon Cauldron’s Heaven and Earth runes activated, the emissary’s will was completely suppressed. A strand of Long Chen’s Spiritual Strength, wrapped in Heaven Earth power, snuck into the spider rune.

The rune quivered. Instantly, Long Chen’s soul strand was pulled down a hidden passage.

His soul passed through a formless world. Space ahead twisted, and he was lost in darkness.

The darkness was absolute, swallowing even the world’s laws. Here, time ceased to exist.

His senses vanished. He could not see, hear, or smell. It was a void beyond all perception.

Long Chen patiently waited within the darkness, but his senses didn’t return.

The only thing that comforted him was Yao Linger’s Heaven Earth power. It still enveloped him, meaning their connection remained.

With his senses stripped away, all he could do was foolishly float in the darkness.

Long Chen gritted his teeth and slowly closed his eyes. When he opened them, he shouted, “Purgatory Eyes!”

The next moment, the darkness slowly retreated, and he saw light.

When Long Chen saw the world around him, he almost screamed. This was a giant cavern filled with giant spiders. They were scattered throughout the walls, all looking at him.

Each spider was the size of a house. Millions filled the cavern’s expanse.

Moreover, every one of them radiated an aura that dwarfed the emissary’s, making her seem like an ant among giants.

Surrounded by such terror, Long Chen didn’t dare to move an inch. Even ten thousand lives would not save him here.

Soon, however, he realized something was wrong. Not a single one of those spiders was moving.

Long Chen summoned his courage and walked over to one of them, but he didn’t dare to get any closer than ten meters. Its terrifying pressure almost crushed his strand of soul.

“It’s just a husk?”

Long Chen realized that this terrifying spider did not possess any spiritual aura. It was like its soul had been sucked away, leaving its body here.

He checked dozens of other spiders, only to find that they were all just husks.

“Ancestors of the nine heavens, what kind of enemy did you fight back then?” Long Chen asked, feeling chills as he looked around him.

He had no idea where this place was, but he knew that these spiders belonged to the Dark Master.

He could not imagine how the Nine Star Master had led the warriors of the nine heavens against terrifying lifeforms like this.

Even without the others, these spiders alone could destroy the nine heavens and ten lands many times over.

With the current power of the nine heavens, how could they possibly stop such a thing? Long Chen couldn’t help but feel a sudden sense of despair.

“Wait, that’s...”

Long Chen sensed a familiar aura among the countless spiders.

“It’s her...!” Long Chen exclaimed.

One spotted spider radiated the same aura as the emissary he had trapped.

He remembered the first time he faced the emissary’s human form in the Seven Treasure Space.

“I am no pawn. I am the divine soul the Dark Master personally nurtured! Someday, I will merge with him and become part of his holy body. Such glory is beyond the comprehension of an insect like you!”

A nurtured divine soul?

Merger?

Become part of him?

Long Chen suddenly thought of a terrifying possibility. Was he inside the Dark Master’s body?

Long Chen examined the spider more closely. A rune—identical to the throne’s—marked the spider’s abdomen.

Long Chen looked around and sensed the other spiders. They all had similar runes on their abdomen. However, they were not identical, and their auras were different.

Are the souls within these bodies all sealed in the Dark Master’s divine statues?

Long Chen thought back to the Devil Slaying Battlefield and the first time he and Mo Nian had seen a statue of the Dark Master.

Long Chen felt a chill run through him. The enemy who had wrecked their world was accumulating power for a complete nirvanic rebirth. Then, they would descend upon their world again.

In the nine heavens and ten lands, the Star Master and Pill Sovereign were dead. Of the Pill Sovereign’s four disciples, Lord Brahma and Fallen Daynight had turned traitor, while Fei Xing and Rui Yue, as well as the Star Master’s four Starlight Heavenly Sovereigns, had perished.

The nine star line’s main force, led by Xiao Yin, had gone astray. Just how could the nine heavens and ten lands face such terrifying enemies again? It seemed hopeless.

Long Chen took a deep breath and tried to steady himself. There was still time.

“This rune is her essence rune. The emissary was using the throne’s power to connect to this place and escape my Seven Treasure Space,” Long Chen muttered.

Long Chen reached out and touched that rune. As the power of his soul enveloped it, the rune started to fade away.

His power now connected to this place. As energy from the Seven Treasure Space could reach her, so could energy here return.

Just as that rune was about to fade away completely, a heavy voice rang out in Long Chen’s ears like thunder.

“Human, you have big guts!”
