Chapter 1800: Resurrection
Chapter 1800: Every Person Has a Different Fate
Long Chen laughed with confidence and delight .
“Brother Long, have… have you really learned to control the paragon art so quickly?”
The nine drakes were astounded . They had been standing guard here the whole time .
“Hehe, Lei Long has already finished learning it . For my Yuan Spirit to learn it as well will still take some time, but everyone, thank you . ” Long Chen cupped his fists .
Lei Long was a manifestation of lightning . For it to learn a lightning art was simple .
Once it learned it, with their spirits connected, Long Chen would also be able to learn it quickly .
The best part though was that when cultivating within the rune, Lei Long had absorbed a huge amount of thunderforce from it .
Lei Long’s quality didn’t necessarily change, but now it had practically a limitless reserve of energy .
Long Chen knew that this energy was left for those inheriting this paragon art . Only when you possessed enough thunderforce could you unleash this art .
“You’re going to leave now?” The silver drake also appeared .
“Yes . I still have many things to do in the outside world . Don’t worry, I remember our agreement . I always keep my promises . ” Long Chen nodded .
“Alright . We’ve never really trusted a human, so hopefully you won’t disappoint us,” said the silver drake .
“Time will tell . ”
Long Chen nodded . After forming new hand seals, faint lightning runes appeared flowing around his fingers, and a thirty-meter gate appeared in front of him . It was much smaller than the giant gate he had made at the beginning .
However, this time, there were no intense fluctuations when the lightning gate appeared .
“Everyone, we’ll quickly see each other again . ”
Long Chen cupped his fists and then stepped through the lightning gate . As soon as he entered, the gate closed and vanished .
The scene in front of Long Chen changed . He had reappeared in that sinister passage filled with the air of death . However, the elder that had guided him had already vanished .
That elder had been an ancient heroic expert . It had used up its last bit of energy and had now fully vanished .
It had been nothing more than the slightest discarnate soul of an expert from the ancient era . Their entire existence was supported by the faith energy of their descendants .
If the sacrifices offered to them weren’t enough or the faith energy wasn’t pure enough, they would dissipate sooner or later .
That made Long Chen sigh inside . Both good people and bad people had things that they wanted to protect in their lives . Despite already being dead, this spirit had still been protecting his descendants .
So bad people also had a good side . But that good side was built over other people’s suffering .
Long Chen followed the channel until he reached a large gate . This gate was not the gate from which he had entered .
He looked back after going through this gate and saw a large immortal character above it . It was the Life character .
He went around the temple to the gate that he had entered, and as expected, he saw a giant Death character .
Long Chen immediately returned to the palace, filled with rage . As soon as he entered, he saw Qu Jianying and the four Grand Elders looking at Ye Lingshan with pleasantly surprised expressions .
“Long Chen, you’re back?” Yan Nantian was shocked to see Long Chen walk in .
“You old bastard, were you trying to con me to death? You sent me into the death gate? Spit out the wine I gave you!” raged Long Chen . He moved to throttle Yan Nantian .
“Long Chen, don’t be rude!”
Long Chen’s actions made Qu Jianying jump, and she hastily blocked him . Even then, Long Chen furiously said, “Old fellow, do you dare to con me a bit more? That death gate had a ninety percent chance of death! Why would you harm me?”
“Hahaha, youngsters shouldn’t be so temperamental . ” Yan Nantian didn’t get angry . He smiled faintly .
“That’s easy for you to say . Do you want to try taking my place? Not only did you send me through the death gate, but the contract was already up! There wasn’t even a ten percent chance of surviving!” roared Long Chen .
“Long Chen, stop shouting . Explain what happened in detail,” said Qu Jianying .
“It really pisses me off . I almost got conned to death…”
Long Chen explained what had happened in the Morning Dao Lightning Field . When they heard that the contract there had already e to an end and that the lightning beasts had already escaped the restrictions of the paragon art’s runes, they jumped in shock .
In the end, Long Chen had used Lei Long’s power to sway the other side, obtaining the paragon art rune . It truly had been dangerous . The slightest mistake and he would have died .
“First of all, we really didn’t know that such a thing would occur . According to reason, if the paragon art rune lost its effect, the entire Morning Dao Lightning Field should have collapsed . Although the death gate had a ninety percent chance of death, with your power, it wasn’t that dangerous, which was why we left the death gate to you . ” Yan Nantian smiled bitterly . He really didn’t know what to say about Long Chen’s luck . With his power, obtaining one of the paragon art inheritances should have been easy, but he had almost died instead .
“Then why didn’t you tell me anything in advance so I could prepare? Other than that, if there’s a life gate, why’d you toss me into the death gate?!” demanded Long Chen .
“Don’t be so angry . You’re overestimating the Martial Heaven Alliance . We only had two spots left for the paragon art inheritance, and you also saw the heroic spirit within the temple . Their energy has reached a limit . This is our current predicament . We had one spot for the life gate and one for the death gate . Tell me, if it were up to you, would you choose the life gate and leave the death gate to a woman? Is that part of your character?” asked Yan Nantian .
“You… can you not play with me like this?!” Long Chen couldn’t help feeling some angry admiration for Yan Nantian . With that one question, he had made Long Chen speechless . What could he say?
If there was only one life and one death spot, then he really would only be able to choose the death gate . But this scenario was still infuriating either way, and now he had nowhere to vent .
“Fine, count yourself an expert . I can’t beat you when it es to this . Fortunately, my life is tough enough, or I’d have to haunt you as a ghost,” said Long Chen .
Seeing Long Chen like this, angry but not able to release it, they laughed .
“Long Chen, what kind of paragon art did you obtain?” asked Ye Lingshan . She was very curious .
“Ah, the paragon art I learned is called Heaven Striking Five Lightning Rumble . It’s perfect to use against people who con me . What about you?” Long Chen began spouting nonsense . He hadn’t asked the name of the paragon art, so he didn’t know . Furthermore, he hadn’t mastered the paragon art yet . But with Lei Long having learned it, he should still be able to use it .
Long Chen was extremely surprised to see that Ye Lingshan was already out . If it hadn’t been for Lei Long, it would have taken him months or years to learn the paragon art .
However, Ye Lingshan had e out before him . How could he not be surprised?
“Yes, I’ve already learned it . It took me three whole years,” said Ye Lingshan .
“What? It’s already been three years?” Long Chen jumped .
“No, when I entered that world, the senior inside taught me the Heaven Rending Divine Slash . The senior also used that world’s energy to open a special spatial domain where I cultivated for three years, while only three days passed in the Martial Heaven Continent,” explained Ye Lingshan .
“A senior? Who guided and taught you? And opened a special spatial domain for you?”
Long Chen felt like he was about to go crazy . Was the difference between people’s fates really so great?
She hadn’t even been in danger, while he had almost died . When he pared himself to Ye Lingshan, he had an urge to slam his head into the wall .
“Cough, it was just luck, yes, just luck . Long Chen, I’m sure you know it’s beneficial to run into setbacks . Considering you obtained your paragon art from the death gate, I’m sure it’s very powerful,” said Yan Nantian hastily .
“Fine, I’m not jealous . I’m not resentful . I’m used to my bad luck . I just hope that if something similar happens, you can tell me beforehand . ” Long Chen bitterly smiled . When he thought about it, he found that he really couldn’t blame anyone . His natural luck was just this bad . Fortunately, the results were good .
At the very least, he had obtained the paragon art inheritance . He had gained the trust of the lightning drakes in the Morning Dao Lightning Field, as well as two attacking paragon arts . His gains were very plentiful, so he should be grateful .
“Do you want to test the power of our paragon arts and see which one is stronger?” Ye Lingshan looked at Long Chen excitedly like she was a child .
Clearly, she wished to test the power of her new paragon art . She also wanted to experience Long Chen’s paragon art .
“I think we shouldn’t . You’re a good child, and using the Heaven Rending Five Lightning Rumble against you isn’t suitable . Furthermore, my luck wasn’t as good as yours, so I’m still in the midst of mastering it . I can’t use it just yet . ” Long Chen shook his head .
Ye Lingshan was a bit disappointed, but she didn’t force it .
Yan Nantian and the other Grand Elders exchanged a look . pared to Long Chen, Ye Lingshan was still a bit immature . Long Chen didn’t like exposing his power . That was a survival instinct .
Perhaps he could dupe Ye Lingshan with this excuse, but he couldn’t fool the four of them . They could already smell the scent of danger from Long Chen . He was definitely capable of using the paragon art .
Having power but not wanting to expose it, show off, or even obtain other people’s approval . At such an age, how few people were capable of this?
“Alliance head, how did the large powers react to my battle three days ago?” asked Long Chen .
Qu Jianying’s expression gradually became gloomy after being asked this .
