Dragon-Blooded War God

Chapter 783: Late-Stage Seven Star Body



The Thunder Elders were the only ones who knew about this meeting. Not even other Thunder clan members had any idea. However, the elders were confident about the opinions of the clan. The Thunder clan loved freedom, and they did not like being dependent on other people.

Lei Ji and Bai Lan did not know that despite the great relationship between themselves, the lower ranks of both clans did not get along well, especially the younger generation. The Demon clan was much stronger than the Thunder clan, and in the Ten Thousand Nations Territory, it was a general opinion that the Thunder clan was dependent on the Demon clan. This made many Demon clan youths act arrogantly in front of the Thunder clan, even looking down on them. This led to much friction between the clans.

Of course, Lei Ji and Bai Lan did not take this friction to heart. Lei Ji was slightly oblivious, but everyone else had at least some resentment towards the Demon clan. After the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance appeared, the eight Sect Elders of the Demon clan were not the only ones who were tempted. Even the seven Thunder Elders and other Thunder clan members had grown restless.

Everyone was oblivious to the storm that was quietly approaching.

Long Chen did not know about this either, of course. At this moment, he was fully immersed in the cultivation of the Seven Star Body. Once he completed this step, he would be able to reach the late stage of the Seven Star Body.

In terms of his ability to control the star core in the heart, Long Chen had already reached the late stage. He exerted control over the core and extended his senses to the horizon far away. The endless starry night contained infinite celestial Qi. Long Chen searched through the sky for the energy, and once he accumulated enough celestial Qi, he finally guided it down to himself.

Long Chen was going to attempt a huge maneuver this time.

Next to him, Bai Lan and Lei Ji were stunned, because Long Chen had guided far more celestial Qi than ever before. This was ten times more than the previous record. The vast amount of celestial Qi turned into a gigantic purple beast in the sky, leading to a loud explosion that sent huge vibrations towards them!

Long Chen almost lost control of the large amount of celestial Qi. If he did, it would be extremely dangerous because it would result in Heavenly Wood City being destroyed, and the people in it would be killed.

Thankfully, he managed to control it.

Bai Lan and Lei Ji sighed in relief. The core power of the Thunder and Demon clans were all here. If they were gone, both of them would cry to their deaths.

However, they were still terrified by the gigantic beast flying in the sky. Thankfully, it took a long time for Long Chen to accumulate this amount of celestial Qi, and he had to do it at high altitudes. If he could casually summon this much celestial Qi in battle, even Bai Lan would have to hide.

The purple celestial Qi shone with a sharp glint as it swirled around Long Chen.

The vast quantities of celestial Qi had startled everyone in Heavenly Wood City, causing them all to gaze up admiringly. They knew that Long Chen was cultivating the Seven Star Body with Bai Lan and Lei Ji protecting him. Too many people were feeling restless tonight.

At the Situ clan’s residence, Situ Yu stood with his hands behind his back. He looked up at the purple celestial Qi in the sky and smirked. He said, “So what if you succeed in cultivating the Seven Star Body? You’re three levels beneath me. That is not a gap that any Divine Weapon or combat technique can fill!”

More than a thousand people were watching Long Chen.

Those who knew how terrifying the celestial Qi was felt respect for him. They roughly knew that the Seven Star Body was forged using the celestial Qi. Based on how strong the Metal Devouring Wind was, they could imagine how scary celestial Qi was. However, Long Chen was bathing in it.

They did not believe that Long Chen was not in pain.

Long Chen was indeed in pain, but he sat with it.

He used the energy from the star core to catch and control the celestial Qi, which was like a gigantic beast. The celestial Qi slowly condensed into a large sphere around him.

The spinning ball was ten times larger than before, and its energy ripples also radiated more than ten times the previous range. All the tree branches and leaves in its area of effect were pulverized. Even Bai Lan and Lei Ji had no choice but to move farther, as they did not want to be injured by it.

“Brother Bai, the boy has caused such a big commotion. I know some idiotic people will get restless. The celestial Qi has formed a very large ball; it’s better if I go to the other side,” said Lei Ji.

Bai Lan’s eyes were fixed anxiously on Long Chen. He nodded.

After the news of Long Chen getting the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance got out, they were worried that some fearless people would come harass him.

Bai Lan had already issued his warning. If someone decided to be bold, he would not mind killing them.

However, those who would dare to attack today were merely some common cultivators who were not very smart. The true masters, who were at least at the Heavenly Martial Realm, did not come.

The Heavenly Martial Realm masters were the true masters of this place. There were no more than ten such people in the whole Ten Thousand Nations Territory.

Under Bai Lan and Lei Ji’s protection, Long Chen was able to cultivate safely. Of course, this was still a huge challenge to him as he needed to endure even more pain than before for seven days and seven nights.

He was surrounded by celestial Qi, and endless amounts of it poured into his body. It was a violent forging process made to bring his Seven Star Body to the late stage. After gritting his teeth and enduring this for seven days and seven nights, he would be fine.

To be honest, there was no special technique to cultivating the Seven Star Body, and it was unrelated to one’s comprehension abilities. The only factors were endurance and control. As for the later part of the cultivation, it only needed one thing, which was endurance.

People who could endure the most pain would become better than the rest.

The suffering he endured was the most he had ever experienced.

Endless celestial Qi poured into his body, surrounding him. It tore through and built his body up, re-building whatever was built in the previous stage. This happened two or three times.

After two rounds of building, the Seven Star Body was finally complete.

Time passed slowly. Long Chen almost wanted to give up several times, seeing as enduring seven days and seven nights of pain was not easy. Many people throughout history could only reach the mid-stage of Seven Star Body, not the late stage, because they could not get through this part.

Whenever thoughts of giving up entered his mind, he thought of Ling Xi and held on.

He held on again and again, until he finally succeeded.

“Xiao Xi …” When he was half-conscious, Long Chen thought about the teenage girl and suddenly felt his body fill with power.

He had found himself on the brink of death several times, but he survived again and again.

Below, many people were observing the changes. They could see the amount of celestial Qi around him decreasing.

“Big Brother, you must succeed!” Suyan prayed with her eyes closed.

The sisters had roughly learned about the cultivation process from Bai Lan, so they knew that the celestial Qi caused great pain.

However, they were impressed that Long Chen could withstand it.

“I can’t believe he managed to endure such a painful ordeal. It’s been seven days, so after the final night, he should be able to succeed.” Suxue could barely believe her eyes as she watched the celestial Qi shrink in the sky.

Seven days passed just like that.

“Yeah. Big Brother is the best! It does not matter how powerful Situ Yu is. In the end, he will be no match for Big Brother.” Suyan’s confidence in Long Chen was starting to become blind confidence.

The final night passed.

At this moment, they flew up above the clouds and stood beside Bai Lan and Lei Ji. The patriarchs had killed many people over the last few days. The thieves were nowhere near strong enough to be fit for the inheritance.

However, if Bai Lan and Lei Ji weren’t around, those people would’ve affected Long Chen’s cultivation.

The gigantic cloud of celestial Qi was now only the size of a human. A thin layer of it covered Long Chen’s body, and he slowly absorbed it until it completely disappeared.

Long Chen was gradually revealed.

Previously, when he reached the mid-stage, his celestial Qi was visible. However, his power was more concentrated this time, as if he had reached his previous state when he had never cultivated anything. This was the late stage of the Seven Star Body, whose power would only appear when Long Chen was truly in battle.

Long Chen closed his eyes and felt his body. He realized that his body was more than ten times tougher than when he was at the mid-stage. His body was filled with pure physical strength, and he was confident that he was likely in the top few in the whole Ancient Graveyard in terms of body toughness, maybe even top three.

He had completed the Big Dipper Step and the Seven Star Body, two of the three sections of the Seven Star Manual.

Now only the section on controlling the Three Thousand Star Clusters remained.
