Chapter 1606: Purgatory
“Stop being in such a bad mood and help! These are my principles. When you’re in trouble in the future, I’ll also risk my life to save you!” shouted Long Chen.
“Scram! Your sappiness is sickening. If you were about to die, I definitely wouldn’t save you,” cursed Evilmoon.
Although it cursed at Long Chen, black light flowed out of it and wrapped around Long Chen and Xie Qianqian.
“Little brick, come out too. Your second-rate master decided to throw away his life to pick up a girl. Hurry up and help,” called out Evilmoon.
The Heaven Flipping Seal flew out as well. It was just about to grow in size when Evilmoon stopped it.
“Fool, if you unleash your divine power, you’ll be killed by the laws of this place!” cursed Evilmoon.
“Can you not be so mean to the Heaven Flipping Seal?” demanded Long Chen.
The Heaven Flipping Seal was a very obedient child and did whatever Evilmoon told it to do. However, Evilmoon went too far with its bullying. Long Chen had to support the little fellow.
Evilmoon and the Heaven Flipping Seal revolved around Long Chen’s body. The Heaven Flipping Seal’s cyan light mixed with Evilmoon’s black light, forming a protective barrier.
“Keep your power well-distributed. Don’t go directly against the surrounding laws. Long Chen, don’t slack. We all have to work together…” Evilmoon began to hand out directions.
The deeper they sank, the narrower the whirlpool. By the time they were at the bottom, it was a funnel. Long Chen’s expression also paled here. The Five Star Battle Armor was reaching its limit as well.
However, he had to maintain it. Without it, perhaps he would be able to survive, but Xie Qianqian’s body would instantly be torn apart.
Just as he was at his limit, they reached the bottom. They fell into endless darkness.
“I’m exhausted. You fool, that energy from the gourd last time was all wasted because of you. Long Chen, tell me, are you a pig?!” cursed Evilmoon.
It really couldn’t understand why Long Chen would be so foolish as to almost throw his own life away to save someone he barely knew. Furthermore, the Heaven Flipping Seal wasn’t skilled enough to cooperate with Evilmoon very well, meaning it had paid eighty percent of its energy to protect them.
Its delight at having conned so much energy from the blood gourd of the Corrupt path changed into fury at having lost it all.
Long Chen knew that his actions were the peak of foolishness in Evilmoon’s eyes. However, in the end, Evilmoon had still helped him out so Long Chen didn’t talk back. It would be fine after it vented.
He returned Evilmoon and the Heaven Flipping Seal to the primal chaos s.p.a.ce. Everything around him was pitch-black, and he could feel himself slowly descending within the darkness. It was a similar feeling to when he had first come to the Netherworld.
After an unknown amount of time, he felt himself touch solid ground. He opened his eyes and activated his sixth sense.
Through his sixth sense, he managed to ‘see’ his surroundings. It was a ruined palace. He didn’t know if it was because he was too small, but he felt like an ant in a giant’s lair. Based on his estimate, this palace was dozens of kilometers high and hundreds of kilometers wide.
The place he had landed was on two open hands. The owner of those hands was a giant statue.
The statue wasn’t standing but kneeling on the ground. Its hands were outstretched before it, as if it was begging for charity.
Long Chen calmly sat on the two hands and slowly recovered his energy. Using the Five Star Battle Armor was extremely taxing on him.
As he calmly recovered, he examined Xie Qianqian’s injuries. She had lost a grave amount of essence blood. However, when he used Spiritual Strength to examine her mind-sea, he was comforted to find that although her energy was strange to him, she was able to absorb his Spiritual Strength to aid in her recovery.
Just as Long Chen was helping Xie Qianqian recover, an angry roar came from the distance, causing him to jump. He saw the palace gates open.
A dozen figures entered while dragging a large body. Those figures weren’t large. In fact, they were even smaller than Long Chen. They seemed to be dwarves.
They each had a hawk’s nose and a monkey’s face, as well as black hair on their backs. Other than that, they were no different from humans.
They held strange blades in their hands. They were three-foot-long triangular blades. Although they were extremely far, Long Chen could sense that those strange blades were very terrifying.
