Chapter 1534 Chapter 1534: My Goal
Long Chen finished absorbing the core while the weather outside kept getting worse and worse. However, as they were underground, the tribulation couldnât get to him.
The longer that Tribulation couldnât reach him, the worse it became. It was also intentional from the Demon Kingâs part. If he wanted, he couldâve gone outside and faced the Tribulation, but he didnât. It was as if he wanted to have it be stronger, so he could experience the peak Tribulation.
For a human, the Tribulation wasnât just a challenge that tested if they were worthy to pass through a layer. It was also something that made them stronger. The stronger that tribulation was, the stronger they were going to be when they came through the Tribulation without being hurt.
Long Chen glanced at the dead body of the White Tiger King. For some reason, he felt like leaving the body here like that was a waste.
He kept the body back in the Ancient Ring before finally looking at Long Tian.
âYou have something to say?â
âYes. Youâve taken over the body that belonged to a friend. I do trust you that you wonât harm his soul since you have no reason to lie to me, but I want to ask when youâll free him. Whatâs your goal, and when will he get his body back?â Long Tian asked.
As long as Long Chenâs soul wasnât hurt, he believed it was a blessing in disguise. The Demon King was making Long Chen stronger, and the moment he was going to leave, the strength was gone to belong to Long Chen, along with all the knowledge of the Demon King. It wasnât all that bad.
There was still one really bad thing about it. He knew that the Demon King had an enmity with the Ancestral God who trapped him in the Statue for a lifetime. And the last shred of that Ancestral God was reading in the Martial Soul of Long Chen.
If the Demon King wanted to destroy the Ancestral God, it was no less than destroying Long Chenâs martial soul, which could cripple his cultivation. So the Demon King was like a double-edged sword that could either make Long Chen or break him.
âMy goals?â Long Chen smiled. âDidnât I tell you already? Itâs to finish my unfinished business! My goal is to destroy the Heavenly Warriors, who are the reason for all my suffering! Now that Iâm back, itâs time they know their place!â
Long Tian didnât worry about Heavenly Warriors being destroyed. Even though it wasnât good for the world, he cared more about Long Chen and his Martial Soul. If the extent of the Demon Kingâs revenge was just destroying the Heavenly Realm, then it wasnât a hard task.
In fact, since the Demon King was able to kill the White Tiger King so easily, killing the Heavenly Warriors was much easier. Throughout the years, the Heavenly Warriors and the Demons had gotten weaker compared to their counterparts.
It wouldâve been a different matter if the Heavenly King who was sealed in the statue was also freed, but as that wasnât the case, there was no significant obstruction in the Demon Kingâs path.
âWhat about the Ancestral God who sealed you? Iâm sure you already know where he is⊠Do you plan to destroy him?â
âDestroy him?â Long Chen smiled. âHe sealed me for millions of years⊠I could do nothing but watch myself suffer. You think I would free him of his suffering so fast?â
âIâll make it so that he suffers a fate worse than death! I trusted him like a friend, and he betrayed me! Thatâs the least I can do for him!â
âMoreover, he has already made things quite easier for me. Only a small shred of him is left behind. I donât know what happened to him for him to fall into this state, but Iâll make it even worse for him! He wanted to seal us. Iâll show him what sealing actually means! But first, he needs to recover! I want to talk to him before I do anything!â
âAlso, I seem to understand your concern, kid. Donât worry. I have no enmity with the humans, especially the one who freed me! I wonât leave his Cultivation crippled!â
âThatâs a relief. That means, after a few weeks, Long Chen should be backâŠâ
âShould be back? He is already back. It seems his soul is up⊠He can see everything. He can hear everything. He can even talk to me. When I leave, he should be able to control his body as wellâŠâ
âNow, before I go to have fun with my Tribulation, is there anything else you want to ask me?â The man inquired.
For some reason, he was in a really pleased mood today! He had finally been freed after all.
âBefore you leave, can you do one last thing for us? It would help your savior Long Chen a lot. And itâll only take a few minutes at best.â
âWhat help?â
Long Tian pointed toward the cave ahead. âWe believe that one of our enemies is sleeping in this place. We came here looking for him. He wants to kill Long Chen and steal his Bloodline. And he is also very strong⊠He already has something akin to the Godly Bloodline. If you can kill him here, that should remove our biggest obstructionâŠâ
âSteal the Bloodline of the person under my protection? Heh, a fool, it seems. I will take care of him!â
Long Chen flew inside the cave. Long Tian also flew inside the cave, closely following behind Long Chen. Even Xun didnât stay behind. But before following them, she gazed at Ling, who was sitting on her knees, looking defeated.
She couldnât believe that her father was killed right before her eyes, and she couldnât do anything about it other than watch. In fact, she even blamed herself for what happened.
If she hadnât met Long Chen⊠If she hadnât asked him to accompany them⊠If she hadnât been in his path, making him fall on top of her⊠If she had managed to stop her father from attacking Long Chen⊠There were so many ifs. If she had done any of those things, her father wouldâve been alive, and the Spirit wouldnât have been freed.
After glancing at Ling once, Xun flew inside, leaving her behind.
Ling kept sitting in silence as tears kept spilling out of her eyes. She didnât know what to do anymore⊠She had lost everything she held dear, and it was too late now!
