Chapter 5126 Heavenly Fate Curse
Long Chen had anticipated this. He knew those Earth Devils wouldn’t let him go just like that, so his only hope of escaping was taking Lu Fan hostage.
However, Lu Fan was stronger than Long Chen had expected. The final attack where he detonated his own Heavenly Fate Disk was something Long Chen had never seen before.
Back then, Long Chen hadn’t sensed anything wrong, but now, he was in a deep shit. Even though Long Chen managed to the attack, the residual energy continued to wreak havoc on his body, overwhelming the primal chaos space’s healing abilities.
Fortunately, Long Chen had been reserving some energy for unexpected situations. Unlike Lu Fan, who had used all his power without hesitation, Long Chen had to keep some energy in reserve for his escape.
It was only thanks to this reserve that he could have endured the impact of Lu Fan’s final attack. But now, he sensed something wrong with his body and needed to find a place to heal.
Long Chen had used the God Slaying Cross’s power to turn Lu Fan into a ticking bomb. If not handled carefully, Lu Fan could explode at any moment. Even six-vein Heaven Saints would need extreme caution to attempt a rescue. This kind of seal could only be performed with the violet blood’s power; his dragon blood or seven-color Supreme Blood would have caused Lu Fan’s body to detonate immediately.
Long Chen was betting that Lu Fan’s life was more valuable to the Earth Devil race than his own. As anticipated, the six-vein Heaven Saints didn’t dare to let Lu Fan die. They quickly placed their hands on him as Long Chen flew through the air, their devil light swirling around Lu Fan. Violet runes slowly began to be extracted from Lu Fan’s body.
The six-vein Heaven Saints had initially believed that their power would allow them to swiftly suppress Long Chen’s technique and then chase after him. However, they had miscalculated. While Long Chen’s technique was powerful, it wasn’t a big deal for the six-vein Heaven Saints to erase. The issue they had overlooked was just how weak Lu Fan’s body was.
They had to slowly grind away Long Chen’s power while keeping Lu Fan alive, and the slightest energy imbalance would result in Lu Fan’s life coming to an end.
In the distance, the three-vein Heaven Saints formed a wall in front of Long Chen, sealing his path. Long Chen was on the verge of collapse. At that crucial moment, Lei Linger and Huo Linger’s voices rang out in his head.
“Big brother Long Chen, just keep moving. We’ll deal with them.”
BOOM!
Lei Linger and Huo Linger transformed into enormous dragons, one violet and one golden. They coiled around each other.
“Double Dragon Destruction!”
It had been a long time since Lei Linger and Huo Linger had joined forces like this. Lightning and flames fused into a devastating attack, crashing into the wall of Mortal Devils.
BOOM!
The lightning dragon and flame dragon detonated, creating a massive breach in their ranks. Dozens of Mortal Devils were hurled backward, coughing up blood.
Seizing the opportunity, Long Chen darted through the gap and fled.
“Useless trash! Chase him!”
The leader of the Earth Devils roared furiously. They were still busy extracting the power of Long Chen’s God Slaying Cross and couldn’t leave yet. Enraged, they gritted their teeth in frustration.
The Mortal Devils swiftly chased after Long Chen. However, just then, a bunch of medicinal pills covered in stars appeared before them.
The medicinal pills erupted one after another, tearing massive holes in space. The Mortal Devils, though not very intelligent, instinctively halted. They knew that being sucked into these spatial cracks was extremely dangerous.
The spatial cracks lingered, ing their path and forcing the Mortal Devils to navigate around them. This delay allowed Long Chen to escape.
...
Long Chen went through three separate teleportations, ensuring that his pursuers could no longer track him. Exhausted, he coughed up blood—dark and viscous, with a foul odor. When it touched the ground, the rocks beneath started to emit white smoke and corrode away.
“What the hell is this?!” Long Chen cursed furiously. Why did it seem like he had been poisoned?
The Earth Cauldron explained, “This is the Heavenly Fate Curse. It is similar to the Lifehunter race’s monstrous divine ability, the Verdict of the Heavenly Daos. Lu Fan has used his own life force to cast this curse on you. If your life is not tougher than his, you will die. This curse embodies the power of the Heavenly Daos, karmic luck, and destiny, making it extremely potent.
“Ordinarily, using such a technique would be suicidal. Without a Heavenly Fate Disk, a person would end up cursing themselves before their enemy. However, Lu Fan has faith energy to sustain him, allowing him to withstand the curse’s backlash. His Heavenly Fate Disk can be rebuilt with faith energy, so while it will take time for him to recover, it won’t have a severe impact on him.” current novels on fɾēewebnσveℓ.com.
“What a fucking monster!” cursed Long Chen.
This fellow possessed countless trump cards and endless sinister tricks. Long Chen had come dangerously close to death multiple times today. freeweɓnovel.cøm
“This monster was nearly killed by you. Aren’t you even more of a monster yourself?” countered the Earth Cauldron, seemingly smiling.
“Hehe, that’s true... pfft!” Long Chen started to smile, but then he spat out more black blood, which created countless corrosive holes in the ground.
“Senior, my head hurts, and my body’s getting weaker. What should I do?” Long Chen clutched his head, grimacing in pain.
“There is a way to deal with it, but I suggest you don’t use it. This Heavenly Fate Curse won’t kill you; it will only feel bad. You should get used to this kind of curse and build up some resistance just in case you encounter another monster like Lu Fan. Remember, he is only one of the eight sons of Brahma,” suggested the Earth Cauldron.
Long Chen understood. This technique was something any of the eight sons of Brahma could use. He needed a method to counter it; otherwise, it could be fatal next time.
Aside from the Brahma line, other monstrous races might also possess similar techniques. There was no avoiding it. Determined, Long Chen clenched his teeth and tried to use his willpower to suppress the curse.
Buzz.
At that moment, a tablet hanging on Long Chen’s waist began to flash rapidly.
“Fuck, not now!” Long Chen’s expression instantly changed.
