Chapter 6956 Absorption Complete

Having Yue Xiaoqian absorb this astral energy was a fantastical idea on Long Chen’s part. He honestly didn’t think it would work.

The original devil race’s core rune came from the Star Master, but since they were outsiders, Long Chen wasn’t sure they could absorb this energy.

However, now that Yue Xiaoqian was absorbing the energy, she would be able to fully control astral energy and protect herself, even from non-devil races.

Long Chen absorbed the energy too. The Golden Virtue Lotus kept growing quickly, not only carving star diagrams onto his body but also making itself stronger.

As it grew, it became more efficient. Compared to how painful carving star diagrams used to be, the difference was like night and day.

With the Golden Virtue Lotus helping him, he felt no pain at all. Instead, he was completely relaxed.

Complex star diagrams were continuously being carved onto his body. It felt as if his whole body was turning into a huge formation. Once activated, it could unleash enough power to destroy everything.

Time slowly passed. After ten days, countless star diagrams appeared in his skin, flesh, meridians, and bones.

He felt as if his entire body was composed of stars, yet his aura remained unchanged. His actual astral energy did not increase.

The Golden Virtue Lotus now had three leaves. Thanks to it, Long Chen’s control over his astral energy had gone through a tremendous boost, but the overall amount he possessed remained the same.

The star diagrams were like a solid foundation for his astral energy’s growth, but they didn’t make him much stronger in the meantime.

Still, Long Chen wasn’t disappointed. He was actually very excited. As his realm and astral energy grew, his combat power would increase much faster.

Long Chen raised his hand and saw star diagrams moving over his fingers. He could now unleash the Starry River God Extinguishing Spear instantly, and with a single thought, he could send out dozens at once.

This was the power of the star diagrams and the three-leaf golden lotus sprout. Long Chen even felt he could instantly form two Starry River Demon Suppressing Bells.

But he only had so much astral energy. If he tried to make two Starry River Demon Suppressing Bells, it would use up all his energy.

To put it simply, he was better at using energy, but he didn’t have any more of it than before.

Unless he advanced, he wouldn’t have more energy to use. There was nothing he could do about that right now.

The starry sea in his Dantian had absorbed astral essence from the primal chaos era and changed a lot. Astral energy from another era was proliferating, but it was out of Long Chen’s control. He didn’t sense any actual improvement to his astral energy because of it.

It looked like he had absorbed half of the Star Gathering Platform’s essence, but now his body couldn’t hold any more.

The Golden Virtue Lotus also stopped taking in energy. It seemed that astral energy couldn’t help it grow anymore.

Long Chen looked at Yue Xiaoqian and saw that she was focused on understanding astral laws. She had stopped absorbing energy a while ago.

There’s so much astral energy here, but I can’t absorb it anymore. Am I really just going to leave it?

Long Chen stared at the starry sea for a while, then suddenly thought of Evilmoon.

Evilmoon was in his spiritual space. Its blade floated there, with strange divine light shining on its edge. Its blood-colored petals flew around it.

“Evilmoon!”

Long Chen tried to wake it up lightly, but Evilmoon didn’t respond. It seemed that Long Chen couldn’t awaken it in this state.

Seeing that, Long Chen relaxed. With a single thought, he summoned the petals flying around it.

“Absorb it!” Long Chen commanded.

The petals flew into the starry sea and quickly absorbed the remaining astral energy. Almost all of the huge amount of astral energy was absorbed in an instant.

Besides the Earth Cauldron, Evilmoon was the only weapon Long Chen had a spiritual contract with. It was also the only one capable of storing all the astral energy.

Because its many split bodies had held astral energy before, it was easy for Evilmoon to absorb it all now.

After all the energy was absorbed, the Star Gathering Platform started to shake. Long Chen knew it was about to collapse. It had already been badly damaged, and now that its energy was gone, it couldn’t last any longer.

Long Chen appeared above the Star Gathering Platform. Cracks spread across the platforms, and the starry sky grew dim.

As he watched it fall apart, Long Chen sighed to himself. “The Dark Feather Blaze Devil had enough power to destroy the Star Gathering Platform, but it didn’t. It must have wanted to absorb the astral essence. But if an outsider devil tried to absorb it directly, it would be suicide. It must have had another way, but that probably only works after nirvanic rebirth.”

Long Chen wrapped the meditating Yue Xiaoqian in astral energy and left the Star Gathering Platform.

When he returned to the place where they had fought, he was shocked to see a huge pile of all kinds of treasures.

Xin Yu really didn’t miss anything. She picked up anything that seemed valuable, even broken fragments.

Long Chen was speechless. Broken weapon fragments were one thing, but some of these weren’t even from the nine heavens. The outsider devils’ weapons were basically worthless to him.

Wasn’t Xin Yu supposed to be the future sect master of a big sect? Why was she acting like she was poor?

Just then, a broken helmet and a rusty spear fell from the sky.

Long Chen gave the helmet a light kick, and it instantly caved in. It had almost no defense at all.

Feeling pissed, Long Chen kicked the helmet so hard that it broke. He had told Xin Yu to look for treasures, not pick up trash. Was she really so poor that she brought back this kind of junk?

“Zhi Zhi, get back here!” Long Chen shouted.

Zhi Zhi came back right away with Xin Yu.

Xin Yu shouted excitedly, “Big brother Long Chen, did you see how efficient I am? That’s our eighth time sweeping through this battlefield! I guarantee that I didn’t leave anything!”

Long Chen almost spat out blood. No wonder she even took the trash—there was nothing left to find.

Long Chen didn’t bother saying anything. He put his hand on Zhi Zhi, letting his senses spread through Zhi Zhi’s network of vines.

Just as Xin Yu said, the whole Devil Suppressing Illusion Realm had been looted. There was nothing valuable left.

But Long Chen wasn’t looking for treasures this time. He was searching for something else.

“Found it! Get out here!” Long Chen shouted.

Zhi Zhi’s body shook, and the earth split open as a huge crystal rose from the ground.
