Chapter 6177 - Crossing Borders

"Holy Son..." Fan Ji's body swayed, and everyone hurriedly came to support him. Only then did they notice that Fan Ji's aura was extremely unstable, indicating he had just been injured. It turned out that Fan Ji, who cared deeply about his reputation, had summoned these people and was trying to maintain a calm demeanor, not wanting them to see through his facade. However, when he heard that Long Zhan's tracking mark had been erased, his anger surged, aggravating his internal injuries, almost causing him to collapse. Long Chen's strike was an incredibly powerful killing move. If it weren't for the two protective garments he wore, it would have shattered his physical body. "How is this possible? The tracking mark set by Lord Long Zhan can only be erased by himself. Unless there is a late-stage Emperor level expert, it's impossible. Tell me, does the Shimo Clan have a late-stage Emperor level expert?" Fan Ji roared. "We don't know, but news came from Lord Long Zhan's side that the mark indeed disappeared," the old man said bitterly. "When did the news come?" Fan Ji took a deep breath, trying to calm himself. "Half an incense stick ago," the old man replied. "What? Half an incense stick ago, why didn't you notify me earlier?" Fan Ji roared. "It was your order that we should not participate in the battle, so we had to wait in place. And by then, you had already set off for a while. We thought it was you who killed the Shimo Clan's expert, causing the tracking mark to disappear," the old man said with a wronged expression. Long Zhan's tracking mark only worked on living beings and was placed on one of the Shimo Clan's Emperor level experts at the third heaven. This is why everyone had bounties, except for those of their level. "There's no point in saying this nonsense now. Mobilize all forces immediately to search. Quickly, it must be fast!" Fan Ji shouted. "Holy Son, you needn't worry. The place we lured them to is fraught with danger; they can't go far," the old man hurriedly comforted. "What if they do go far? Will you take responsibility with your head?" Fan Ji yelled. The old man immediately lowered his head, a cold gleam flashing in his eyes: You fool, can't tell good from bad. It's clearly your fault, yet you're venting your anger on us. Bad luck for me, flattering the wrong person, really unlucky. "Why are you still standing there like fools? Go now!" Seeing them not moving, Fan Ji almost hit them. "Yes," everyone hurriedly left. "You stay," Fan Ji suddenly pointed at one person, who immediately stopped, feeling a bit uneasy. This Holy Son had a bad temper, and he was afraid of being targeted. "You stay and protect me while I heal!" "Yes," Hearing that he was to protect him while healing, the man breathed a sigh of relief. However, he was also filled with shock. This Holy Son's temperament and character were terrible, but his strength was terrifying. Who could have injured him? ... "Fortunately, senior, you arrived. Otherwise, we might have been doomed today," the Qiankun Cauldron enveloped Long Chen, directly transporting him to the Shimo Clan's gathering place. Yue Xiaoqian, seeing Long Chen alive, couldn't help but burst into tears of joy. With so many terrifying experts, she thought she might never see Long Chen again. The strong of the Shimo Clan were also exceedingly excited. If they weren't in a perilous place, they would have definitely cheered loudly. "Zhi Zhi..." At this moment, Zhi Zhi in the chaos space made a sound, telling Long Chen it could also break the giant net. However, if it fully exerted itself, its body would be completely destroyed and everything would have to start over. If Long Chen really faced a death crisis, it wouldn't hesitate to act. Long Chen felt touched and comforted Zhi Zhi, then said to the Qiankun Cauldron: "Senior, what's the situation with this divine seedling? How can it possess so many Emperor Flames?" The Qiankun Cauldron said, "The so-called divine seedling is just a name given by the divine path inheritors themselves. In fact, in the chaotic era, the Emperor realm was a chaotic realm, not important, merely a step to attest the Emperor. But later, when the Nine Stars Master appeared, he defied the heavens and changed the path, splitting the Emperor realm into the Human Emperor and Divine Emperor realms. Later, it was discovered that after advancing to the Human Emperor, there was a shortcut to skip the Divine Emperor realm and directly enter the Emperor Lord realm." "Skip the Divine Emperor directly? Does it have something to do with the divine seedling?" Long Chen was intrigued. The Qiankun Cauldron said, "Exactly, before the Nine Stars Master, the Emperor realm was merely the condensation of Emperor Qi and Emperor Flames, very simple to cultivate. But after the Human Emperor appeared, it became like a chasm across all races, causing countless races to have to take human form early for cultivation, preparing to break through the Human Emperor. You've also noticed that many races, though no longer needing to be bound by human form, still maintain it most of the time because they have developed a dependency on it. The condensation of Emperor Qi and Emperor Flames is easiest in human form, and more difficult in other forms. As long as the talent conditions are met, and the forces of spiritual blood, spiritual roots, and spiritual bones are balanced, with enough talent to withstand so many Emperor Flames and endless resources to support, one can cultivate Emperor Flames, skip the Divine Emperor, and directly reach the Emperor Lord realm." "How many Emperor Flames must one condense to skip the Divine Emperor realm and directly advance to the Emperor Lord?" Long Chen asked. "Nine hundred and ninety-nine," the Qiankun Cauldron replied. "Oh my!" Long Chen gasped, "Isn't that too exaggerated?" "The combination of three nines breaks the barrier to directly advance to the Emperor Lord. It is fatally tempting to countless people," the Qiankun Cauldron said. "But condensing so many Emperor Flames must require a vast amount of resources," Long Chen said. "Not just resources. If one lacks talent, for instance, condenses nine hundred and ninety-eight Emperor Flames but cannot condense the last one, they have to obediently follow the path of the Divine Emperor," the Qiankun Cauldron said. "Wouldn't that be all for nothing then?" Long Chen was stunned. "Not exactly. Even if one cannot skip the Divine Emperor, the Emperor Flames won't disappear. Upon entering the Divine Emperor realm, divine power and Emperor Flames fuse, wasting nothing. So, as you can see, as long as there are conditions, most divine seedlings are taking the divine seedling route. Moreover, with abundant and endless spiritual energy of heaven and earth, not taking the divine seedling route would be a huge waste unless one is not talented enough. Though cultivation speed may slow, the strength is astonishing. Fan Ji is proof of this. In the future, this world will belong to the divine seedlings. Today's Emperor Lord experts will soon be eliminated. Once a divine seedling crosses three hundred, it will sweep all current Emperor Lord experts. You humans have a saying: 'The waves behind drive the waves ahead, and the waves ahead die on the beach.' These Emperor Lord experts are not far from death," the Qiankun Cauldron lamented. "They have already begun a wide search. Long Chen, next, immediately lead everyone deeper into the Emperor's Fall Land," the Qiankun Cauldron suddenly reminded. "Alright," Long Chen stood up, unable to rest, took a slight breath, and then called the strong of the Shimo Clan to head deeper into the Emperor's Fall Land.
