Chapter 7103 A Full Moon Above the Sea
Chapter 7103 A Full Moon Above the Sea
The divine capital’s barrier slowly rose. Immortal mist shrouded the heavens. Looking from the outside, it appeared as if the divine capital had strangely vanished.
Within the divine capital, the land had disappeared, replaced by a tranquil sea.
Every disciple of the Full Moon Sect was seated on top of the surface of this deep blue sea. They were spread out in a mysterious and profound formation. In their immaculate white robes, they appeared like the envoys of heaven, descended upon the mortal world to bring it purity. With their presence, the entire world seemed to turn into an immortal paradise.
Long Chen, Zi Yan, Shen Qingxue, and the others stood atop the sea in shock. Even they were unable to tell whether this was real or an illusion; it felt as if they had been pulled into a completely different world.
Meanwhile, Li Yixuan was kneeling in the sky. She was kowtowing toward a place only known to her and murmuring something. The Full Moon Sect’s disciples murmured along with her.
Holy light slowly radiated out of the serene sea.
The full moon rises from the sea...
Long Chen’s heart shook. At this moment, he was certain that the Moon God Temple’s power was similar to his own. This was a power from beyond the heavens.
A full moon slowly rose. Its sacred light basked them all. Long Chen felt a pure energy cleansing his soul.
The sound of Li Yixuan and the Full Moon Sect’s disciples’ murmuring grew louder, and they also began kowtowing towards the full moon. With every kowtow, more light would gather on them. It wasn’t long before all of them were shining brightly.
As the light grew stronger, a new kind of special energy entered their bodies. However, none of them reacted to it. They continued piously kowtowing to the full moon. Before long, their murmuring became a song. The song was ethereal and beautiful, and it lent this already wondrous world an even more elevated splendor.
The moon rose high in the sky. The sea was like a mirror splitting this world in two. With everything reflected perfectly by the sea, it was impossible to tell which side was real and which was false. Were they real, or were they the reflection? Were they inside, or were they outside? Which way was up, and which way was down?
Once the full moon was at its peak, it looked like a piece of flawless jade. Its gentle light seemed like it could wash away all the pain and sorrow of this world.
Long Chen suddenly realized that there was no one else around him. He was the only one left standing atop the surface of the sea. The only thing he could see was his reflection...or was it? All he did was blink, and his reflection was gone, replaced by something else altogether.
He had appeared.
The white of his robes was pure—a chilling purity created by erasing everything unnecessary. The black of his eyes was also pure—a pure, emotionless void. This man thought himself as the master of all life, someone who stood as far above the world as the full moon.
“You forcibly summoned me right in the middle of my important breakthrough? Don’t tell me that you got scared?” said the white-robed Long Chen.
When he spoke, Long Chen felt space distort. While it originally felt like he was looking down at the white-robed Long Chen in the reflection beneath, it now suddenly felt as if he was the one beneath, the one in the reflection.
Yet he smiled casually. “Afraid? If I were afraid, I wouldn’t have sent that fellow to you.”
“Sent? Hmph, didn’t you leave him to me because you couldn’t subdue him?” sneered the white-robed Long Chen.
Long Chen nodded. “Yes, I couldn’t subdue him, but I felt like erasing him would have been a shame. It would be better for at least one of us to benefit!”
“One of us? Since when am I one of you? Don’t tell me... Have you given up? Why else would you suddenly suck up to your enemy?” asked the white-robed Long Chen.
“My enemy? Are you saying that we are enemies?”
The white-robed Long Chen fell silent. This question was deeper than he had expected. They were certainly rivals, but... were they truly enemies?
Long Chen asked, “Do you think you are the Star Master?”
The white-robed Long Chen asked in reply, “Who do you think you are?”
Both of them fell into silence.
Long Chen wanted the white-robed Long Chen’s answer, and the white-robed Long Chen wanted Long Chen’s answer. But their attitude only showed that they were equally clueless.
A long time passed before the white-robed Long Chen finally broke the silence. “Is Little Crane doing well?”
Long Chen was surprised, but he didn’t let it show on his face. He simply replied, “I believe she is.”
The white-robed Long Chen’s eyes turned colder. “You are very powerful now. But once I break through, I will take control of everything. You will be a prisoner for eternity!”
The white-robed Long Chen disappeared. Long Chen once more saw his reflection beneath his feet.
“Break through, you say?” He narrowed his eyes. “Alright, let’s wait and see!”
Maybe he would have been worried before, but after his Dao comprehension, he no longer feared the white-robed Long Chen.
The white-robed Long Chen was no fool; he hadn’t attempted to fight here. Most likely, he didn’t want to expose his own power. However, the fact that he’d said Long Chen was very strong showed that he had noticed some things about Long Chen’s current state.
At the same time, Long Chen was unable to see through him. In theory, this indicated that the white-robed Long Chen was still stronger than him. Even so, he didn’t panic. After all, he was still the master of this body. He still had an absolute advantage.
In addition, with the white-robed Long Chen’s arrogant nature, if he wanted to take control of the body, he would do it in a direct clash. Long Chen didn’t need to worry about him suddenly taking advantage. In this respect, Long Chen himself actually felt a bit ashamed. After all, last time, he had used the Earth Cauldron to con his heart-devil.
Finally, the white-robed Long Chen had asked about Little Crane. That indicated that after that time, he had not spied on his body. Perhaps he disdained doing so, or perhaps he was so busy getting stronger that he didn’t have time to spy on Long Chen.
Long Chen truly had not expected the Full Moon Sect’s divine abilities to be so miraculous. They were actually able to summon his heart-devil. The Moon God Temple’s legacy was truly heaven-defying. In any case, now that the white-robed Long Chen had left, Long Chen’s mind and spirit were in a perfect state to contemplate divine techniques.
Li Yixuan had used her own manifestation to form a resonance with the Full Moon Sect’s disciples. They were carrying out the Moon Worship Spiritual Ceremony. Long Chen and the others were at the core of the ceremony. They had entered the Moon God’s world to cultivate and work on their own divine techniques.
Long Chen sighed in wonder. This Moon God world is truly marvelous! I didn’t even need to think about it, and I already know why my Eight Star Battle Armor was stuck!
Long Chen formed hand seals. His starry sea appeared, and the starry sea in his Dantian surged with it. There were two starry seas, one inside and one outside. They looked identical, but the revolution of the stars was different. Long Chen patiently watched as the two starry seas slowly shifted. He was like a spectator; he had abandoned all control.
Suddenly, he formed rapid hand seals. The starry sea behind him and the starry sea in his Dantian both froze. At this moment, both starry seas were perfect images of each other. There was not the slightest difference between them.
Now!
Long Chen shouted, “FengFu Star, open!”
