Chapter 5441 Dragon Domain, I’m Coming.
The layers of rust that once covered the Earth Cauldron had entirely fallen away, revealing a subtle yet undeniable luster. Its aura had transformed drastically—no longer decrepit or worn but now sacred and noble, as if it had been reborn.
“Senior...!” Long Chen gazed in awe at the changes in the Earth Cauldron and Evilmoon, astonishment etched on his face.
Looking at the Earth Cauldron, Evilmoon cursed, “Who the fuck are you saying will become malevolent? Hmph, I could never get as twisted as Long Chen.”
Long Chen was momentarily speechless. How had he suddenly become the subject of this accusation? Was he really that sinister?
Shaking off Evilmoon’s quip, Long Chen turned to the Earth Cauldron, his expression serious. “Senior, I need to ask. What exactly happened in the Wind Domain Battlefield? Was it all a dream? Or was it real?”
The Earth Cauldron answered calmly, “Of course it was real. The blond-furred little fellow had used a secret art of the Heaven Devil race. By concentrating their race’s power, using the souls of the human race as a guide, and channeling it through the eight-trigram curse, he created a spacetime bridge. This allowed him to extract energy from the primal chaos era in a vain attempt to awaken those Golden Wing Heaven Devils.
“I have to say, it was a crazy idea. The odds of success for such a thing are abysmal, but he somehow succeeded.
“As for you, you charged straight into the Death Gate. I thought about warning you several times, but I held back because I felt like this was the workings of fate. If I interfered, it would not just invoke karmic repercussions but also negatively affect your future. Fortunately, I stayed my hand, or you wouldn’t have been able to enter another spacetime. That act allowed the laws and aura of the primal chaos era to enter the primal chaos space, awakening the core energies of both Evilmoon and me. Additionally, your eight stars have fully matured. In short, this was an incredible opportunity,” said the Earth Cauldron.
“Senior, why couldn’t I sense you when I entered the ancient battlefield? I was almost dead back then,” asked Long Chen.
The Earth Cauldron sighed, “We were separated by spacetime. Neither of us has fully recovered, and we don’t have the ability to transcend spacetime to assist you. To be honest, that was really dangerous. If you had died there, it would have been the end—no second chances.”
A trace of fear could be heard in its voice. Being pulled into a spacetime gate and then the primal chaos era battlefield was truly beyond the Earth Cauldron’s expectation.
Long Chen hesitated before asking, “Senior, I wasn’t from that era, yet I killed lifeforms from it. Will that affect history?”
Crossing the boundaries of spacetime meant that Long Chen had altered the past. Would those he killed have left descendants who now ceased to exist? Or would their absence ripple through history in unpredictable ways? The weight of such karma was impossible to ignore.
The Earth Cauldron replied, “I cannot calculate the full extent of karma, but one thing is clear: by doing so, you’ve entangled yourself with the karma of the primal chaos era. When you attempt to break into the Human Emperor realm, your tribulation will be unimaginably severe.”
Clearly, the Earth Cauldron’s powers were still limited in this regard.
Before Long Chen could respond, Evilmoon interjected, “You’re overthinking it. The place you fought wasn’t one of the main battlefields, and those people were just cannon fodder. Even if you hadn’t killed them, someone else would have. War engulfed the nine heavens and ten lands during that era, and those cannon fodder had no chance of survival.”
The Earth Cauldron added, “Evilmoon is correct. Based on your memories, that should be the case. Although my memories haven’t fully recovered, if you had been on a main battlefield or encountered someone deeply tied to my karma, my memories would have been stirred.”
Long Chen felt a shiver down his spine. Those immensely powerful lifeforms he had fought with his life on the line were considered cannon fodder? If that was true, how terrifying must the true experts of the primal chaos era have been?
With this reminder, Long Chen thought back to what had happened on the battlefield. Upon reflection, it became clear that the battle was chaotic, lacking any coordination or commanding figures. It was nothing more than an unorganized skirmish. This confirmed that the opponents he had faced were not the core experts on that battlefield.
“You can ignore it. You’ve gotten stronger, and so have I. As long as we join forces, we can definitely sweep through the nine heavens and ten lands in the future! Whatever troubles come, we’ll crush them head-on,” declared Evilmoon.
Long Chen nodded. There was no point in worrying about these things. As long as he had enough power, there was nothing to be afraid of.
The reason he had struggled on that battlefield was simple—he wasn’t born in that era. If he had been, would those so-called enemies have even been qualified to fight him?
Thinking of that, Long Chen felt like he had a different perspective now. After that, the Earth Cauldron told Long Chen that it needed to rest for a few days to get accustomed to its new energy. Meanwhile, Evilmoon was still smoking black qi, unable to stop it. As this black qi corroded space and damaged the laws of the world, the primal chaos space refused to let Evilmoon enter again.
The black qi had no effect on Long Chen himself. Without hesitation, he retrieved the scabbard that Guo Ran had forged for him and secured Evilmoon on his back.
Evilmoon’s dark aura, paired with Long Chen’s black robes, created a striking image. At this moment, Long Chen exuded a wild, domineering energy, like a death god emerging from hell—dangerous, powerful, and untouchably imposing.
After a day of rest, Long Chen felt completely rejuvenated. His astral energy had revolved through countless cycles, restoring his body to its peak state. His violet blood, seven-color Supreme Blood, and dragon blood were in top condition, harmonized and ready for battle. Meanwhile, Lei Linger and Huo Linger had also returned to their full strength, their energies radiating with renewed vigor.
Without hesitation, Long Chen strode toward the spatial crack.
The moment he entered, the crack seemed to devour him. Instantly, countless spatial blades lashed out, grinding against him with destructive force.
Luckily, there was no need for Long Chen to do anything. His Starry Sky Battle Robe appeared automatically, blasting the spatial blades apart.
The Starry Sky Battle Robe’s defensive capabilities were astounding. The blades carried the destructive force of a full-strength attack from a five-vein or six-vein Human Emperor, yet Long Chen remained unaffected. He didn’t even feel the impact as they struck the robe.
Only when a particularly powerful spatial blade attacked did the Starry Sky Battle Robe quiver faintly. This small reaction was enough to assure Long Chen of its durability. It had grown immensely stronger, and with it, so had his confidence.
“Dragon Domain, I’m coming!”
