Chapter 458 - Nine Major Meridian Points

In that instant, Long Chen increased his speed and used the first stage of the Soul Swallowing Gaze, Seduction.

The Soul Swallowing Gaze was the technique that Li Xuanji had taught him. Even though Long Chen had barely scratched the surface of the technique, it had saved him multiple times, especially the third stage, Sight. It allowed him to scan the surroundings for souls while ignoring the terrain. It had proven to be very useful.

The first stage, Seduction, could also be used in combat. Jiang Cheng was gazing at Long Chen’s eyes when the character for the word “seduction” appeared in them. Jiang Cheng was planning on retreating to avoid Long Chen’s attack before launching his own strike.

But Long Chen’s body suddenly became hazy and even started to disappear. His surroundings were fading and turning into a whirlpool that sucked him inside.

What’s going on?

While he was confused, Jiang Cheng suddenly felt like his life was in danger. Due to the sudden change in his environment, he had slowed down enough for Long Chen to reach him. When Jiang Cheng snapped out of it, Long Chen was already by his side.

“AH!” Jiang Cheng shouted out in fear, but no one was here to hear him due to how desolate the place was. Long Chen smiled and stabbed Jiang Cheng’s neck with the Demon Emperor Sword.

Jiang Cheng’s final shout was cut off by Long Chen’s Demon Emperor Sword. Even though he was a Third Passage Stage cultivator, he had lost to Long Chen because the latter had a clear understanding of his heart. Long Chen had suppressed him from the very start.

Even so, Jiang Cheng did not die instantly. His eyes widened in shock and he started wheezing, overcome with despair. He knew that he would die the moment Long Chen pulled the sword out.

“I was actually quite grateful to you for helping me so much, but to think that you were trying to harm me all along. This is what you deserve. You shouldn’t try to befriend people just to steal their stuff. Reflect on this when you go down to hell.” Long Chen’s voice was chilly.

Jiang Cheng couldn’t even speak. His eyes grew darker as his life slowly faded.

This was the outcome of trying to harm Long Chen.

Long Chen withdrew the sword, and Jiang Cheng’s body slowly slumped to the ground. When he died, a golden light flew off his body. It was a golden identity token! It shot past Long Chen and flew high up in the air. Long Chen was shocked. If he saw it right, that was Jiang Cheng’s true golden identity token!

I cannot stay here for long! Long Chen frowned and immediately took Jiang Cheng’s Universe Pouch. Without even looking at its contents, he threw everything into the Primordial Realm before running out of the building.

The golden identity token with the name ‘Jiang Cheng’ is still here, but the one he used to enter the city has flown away. Maybe because he’s from some noble family, his real token flew back to his family when he died.

Long Chen soon reached the western city gate. There were people guarding it too, so he took out the Jiang Cheng golden identity token to get out of the city. This token is clearly not his real one. If I had taken someone else’s token, it’s possible that the guards would detect the discrepancies. But since this token was intended for him to get around without using his real one, I should be fine.

Soon, Long Chen got through the line and revealed his token. The guards looked at it before nodding. “Jiang Cheng. Alright, you can leave now.”

Long Chen then ran out of the city. After passing the inspection, he was sure that he could use it without any issues. After killing so many people from the Martial Alliance, Long Chen wouldn’t dare to get one made for himself.

The person on the third spot of the bounty board is also called Long Chen. Even though it’s a coincidence, I cannot use my real name. I will have to use this name, Jiang Cheng, instead. Long Chen had no choice. Even though he already had a fake name, Yang Qing, he would have to use the name Jiang Cheng.

He said that the path on the other side of Yellow Martial City leads to the Ancient Demon Domain. I should be able to reach it without any issues, but I need to find a place to hide first to count what I’ve earned.

Xiaolang also needed a safe place to eat the demonic core of the Blazing Lion. With it, he would be able to reach the Heaven-tier.

Xiaolang was very excited. “Big Brother!”

“Let’s go find a place to hide first.”

Long Chen saw a mountain while running on the path. He increased his speed and ran towards the desolate mountain. The Divine Martial Empire was massive, but there were not a lot of people, so there was no one in sight outside the city.

He soon reached the mountain and used the Soul Swallowing Gaze to find a relatively quiet spot, choosing a small cave that was both quiet and safe. No one was around them either. Even if someone approached, Long Chen would easily spot them with the Soul Swallowing Gaze.

“Xiaolang, take the core and refine it. You need to become a Heaven-tier demonic beast as soon as possible.” Long Chen immediately took the core out and gave it to Xiaolang.

The fat cat suddenly said, “Let the stupid dog refine it in the Primordial Realm. There might be unexpected gains.”

Long Chen thought about it. The Primordial Realm did contain Primordial Qi, so it was possible Xiaolang would gain something if he refined the core there. And if something happened to Long Chen outside, Xiaolang would be safe. He nodded and sent Xiaolang into the Primordial Realm.

There were three areas inside the Primordial Realm that Long Chen had separated. The first area was where the cat was. Since he was the original resident of the place, it was normal for him to have such a big space for himself.

The remaining two areas were where Xiaolang resided and where Long Chen placed his items. Long Chen’s Demon Emperor Sword and other objects were placed here, including the Heavenly Passage Pills. Jiang Cheng’s items were there as well.

He didn’t have as much as I thought. After paying fifteen thousand Heavenly Passage Pills for the Soul Binder, there were only five thousand left in his Universe Pouch. I think he came all the way here just to buy the Soul Binder.

But five thousand Heavenly Passage Pills was a good amount. He also had the Soul Binder. If Long Chen sold it, he could get another ten thousand Heavenly Passage Pills or more. He wouldn’t have to worry about progressing his cultivation anytime soon.

Since Jiang Cheng had come all this way just for the Soul Binder, he hadn’t brought a lot of things. There were random personal items that Long Chen burned away. All that was left was an elementary Heaven-tier spiritual herb.

His father probably thought that there was a good chance he would be killed. If he brought any advanced Heaven-tier martial techniques with him, he might’ve really gotten robbed and the techniques would have been leaked. That would be a heavy blow to his family.

Except for the five thousand Heavenly Passage Pills, Long Chen’s largest reward was the golden identity token. If he didn’t have it, it would be difficult for him to move around.

Just as Master said, I should join a large sect. If I don’t, I’ll just be buzzing around like a headless fly with no knowledge of how to increase my strength; I won't even be able to get any techniques. Plus, I’ve become the enemy of the Martial Alliance and need a clan to protect me. I have to go to the Ancient Demon Domain!

Long Chen shook his head bitterly.

Once XIaolang finishes refining the demonic core, I have to go to the Ancient Demon Domain as quickly as possible. But for now, it’s time to advance into the Heavenly Passage Realm.

After absorbing a hundredth of the Inherited Blood Essence, Long Chen’s cultivation speed had increased by tenfold. It would’ve taken him several months to reach the Heavenly Passage Realm before, but now it would only take him ten days.

It was clear that his talent in cultivation was absurd.

I’ve finished condensing the eighteen starry rivers in my body. The interior of my body is just like the night sky, but for it to come alive, I need to carve out the nine meridian points in my body. There are six spiritual meridian points, two earthly meridian points, and one heavenly meridian point. The first meridian point is the dan meridian point!

The dan meridian point was located in the dantian. Ever since he reached the Heavenly River Realm, his dantian had been left untouched, but now he has to activate it once more to form the core of his Qi. This time, he had the help of the eighteen starry rivers.

Xiaolang also needed time to cultivate, so Long Chen sat down and got ready to advance into the final realm of the Four Basic Realms.
