Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts-Chapter 5878: Crazy

“What just happened?”

“What was that?!”

“I died! Or did we all die?”

Even Liu Minghao and Liu Qingyu only lasted half a breath longer than the others before being instantly slain within the Seven Treasure Space. In that moment, the mighty geniuses of the Undying race were reduced to nothing.

Liu Rujiao couldn’t help but sigh. Long Chen was right… these so-called heavenly geniuses of the Undying race were powerful in name only. Their strength was hollow.

They were sitting on a mountain of gold and silver, but they had no way to excavate it. They had no idea how to use their own power for actual combat.

In the face of death, they crumbled. Even Liu Minghao and Liu Qingyu were no exceptions. In front of death, all were equal.

Ironically, the stronger ones sometimes did worse. Their pride made them panic, and that panic killed them faster.

Liu Rujiao’s hard expression softened when she saw everyone’s terror.

“This is Long Chen’s training,” she said. “The enemies inside are all the vengeful spirits of those who died at his hands. Their techniques were copied by the divine tree and replicated within this world. Here, we will undergo a complete transformation.”

“What? They were all killed by Long Chen?” Liu Qingyu and the others were stunned.

“Don’t be so surprised. Yes, all of them were defeated by Long Chen,” Liu Rujiao replied calmly. “And I have some bad news: the Divine Tree Space has seven levels of increasing difficulty. You were only on the fifth.”

She had coined the name “Divine Tree Space” herself, as Long Chen had never told her the true name of the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Tree. It wasn’t something he wished to share.

Hearing that, these geniuses didn’t know what they felt. They knew Liu Rujiao wouldn’t lie to them. However, they were peak geniuses, the Undying race’s Sovereign sprouts. Being instantly obliterated was a huge blow to their confidence.

“Don’t feel bad. I also went through the same thing,” said Liu Rujiao. “Long Chen once told me—without struggling inside the cocoon, there is no way to become a butterfly. Every ounce of pain is a step forward, and cultivation has no shortcuts. Even if there are, they come with a price. We’ve taken too many shortcuts. This death trial is meant to temper our foundations, our souls, and our wills. It might hurt now, but you’ve seen the results.”

“The warriors of the Undying race fear neither death nor pain! Rujiao, take us back in. I want to reach the seventh level!” Liu Qingyu shouted, blood roaring in his veins.

When they thought of how Liu Rujiao had skyrocketed in strength in just ten days, their fighting spirit ignited. They wanted to charge forward.

“Warriors of the Undying race, charge!” Liu Rujiao shouted.

Once again, the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Tree released its divine light.

Within the Seven Treasure Space, chaos reigned.

Various lifeforms came from every direction, unleashing their most ferocious attacks. Many of them didn’t look that strong, but their attacks were sharp, with immense killing power. Furthermore, they were unafraid of death.

If it were only a few enemies, it would be manageable. But they came like a flood.

The Undying race’s experts couldn’t withstand them. Liu Qingyu unleashed his powerful techniques wildly, only to have a strand of Sword Qi pierce his skull and end his life.

“Fuck!” Liu Qingyu cursed furiously.

Without a rest, he roared and charged back in.

Liu Qingyu saw the sword cultivator who had slain him slaughtering Undying race experts, turning them into vanishing motes of light. Enraged, he rushed forward for revenge.

Just as he was about to ambush the sword cultivator from behind, the enemy swung his sword backward without even turning around.

Liu Qingyu was sliced clean in two and expelled again.

In his ears, Liu Rujiao’s voice echoed, “Fool. Sword cultivators can’t be sneak-attacked.”

“I don’t believe it!” he roared.

He charged in again. As he locked onto the sword cultivator’s aura, a chill ran down his spine. Goosebumps erupted across his body.

After that, a cold breeze brushed his neck, and his head flew off. He saw his own headless body before vanishing once more.

“Fuck!”

Liu Qingyu was expelled again. With his hair standing on end and his eyes bloodshot, he looked like he had gone mad. Again, he charged in.

He was prideful, but the Seven Treasure Space was perfect for beating sense into stubborn geniuses.

Liu Qingyu had powerful explosive potential, yet he was repeatedly killed without ever releasing it. Many times, he didn’t even understand how he died.

Meanwhile, Liu Minghao and the others weren’t doing much better. They were killed over and over again. Anger surged in Liu Minghao’s chest.

However, unlike Liu Qingyu, Liu Minghao remained composed. Even while being killed, he quietly studied the enemy’s techniques, reflecting on his own flaws and adapting his combat style to the chaotic battlefield.

In this space, their refined techniques seemed childish and one-dimensional. Before these savage enemies, they were hopelessly slaughtered.

As the leader of the Undying race’s disciples, Liu Minghao possessed sharp vision and deductive ability. Within an incense stick’s time, he slowly grasped some tricks to fight on this battlefield and could survive for a full breath.

Liu Rujiao couldn’t help but sigh when she saw this. Liu Minghao was a true genius that she couldn’t compare to. As for Liu Qingyu, he was simply an idiot.

She also entered the Seven Treasure Space, nimbly weaving through attacks and striking back when the timing was right. Her role was to monitor the others. After all, this training could fracture the mind if taken too far.

Seeing Liu Minghao’s rapid growth, she felt her own blood heating up. She knew this space was a treasure trove of combat experience. Unfortunately, her stomach was too small to consume it all. Liu Minghao could consume a bit more than her, while the Undying race as a whole could benefit from it even more.

Liu Rujiao wished she could open the Seven Treasure Space to everyone.

“Warriors of the Undying race, work hard. This opportunity is incredibly rare.”

…

Just as the Undying race’s Sovereign sprouts were fighting for their lives and losing in the Seven Treasure Space, Long Chen was also hard at work.

Inside the palace, divine light flickered atop the massive dragon pillars. Dragon runes raged with power, blanketing Long Chen in divine brilliance. A sacred aura filled the hall.
