Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts

Chapter 5271 Secret of the Divine Commander

“Hahaha, don’t tell me that I actually guessed right? Hahaha!” Long Chen taunted.

When Long Chen sensed the Silver Hair Void Crusher’s killing intent, his mood improved.

The Silver Hair Void Crusher’s expression was extremely ugly now. Rage burned in his eyes as he said darkly, “Laugh all you want. Laugh until you see your Nine Star Master in hell—no, your Nine Star Master has long since vanished. After you die, you won’t be able to see him, but you’ll reunite with the seniors of your nine star lineage, and you can all cry in hell together!”

Long Chen remained indifferent to the Silver Hair Void Crusher’s taunting and sneered, “In the primal chaos war, Lord Brahma was crushed so badly that only a trace of his discarnate soul remained. The Eight Great Divine Commanders were also pushed to the brink of death—one even died suddenly years later. Seems like the entire Brahma line is nothing more than a facade. Even after all these years, you still haven't fully recovered. Looks like it’s only a matter of time before your Brahma line completely shatters.”

“Shut your mouth! Lord Brahma has rebuilt his body, and his soul is long healed! His body and soul are merging as we speak, and any day now, he will return! Once he descends upon the nine heavens again, it will be the day when all the ten thousand races bow to him! Your nine star line’s trash will never see the light of day again!” spat the Silver Hair Void Crusher.

“Hahaha, what a joke! The Eight Great Divine Commanders couldn’t recover even after so many years, and one of them suddenly died. You think Lord Brahma is any better off?” Long Chen laughed, intentionally provoking him.

Long Chen could tell the Silver Hair Void Crusher’s power was terrifying, but his intelligence wasn’t high. Recently promoted to the rank of the Eight Great Divine Commanders, this idiot was overconfident and eager to prove himself.

The more Long Chen provoked the Silver Hair Void Crusher, the more the latter argued, unwilling to resort to violence just yet. To him, attacking would be like admitting defeat in this verbal battle.

“What do you understand? Only four of the Eight Great Divine Commanders were badly wounded back then. The others recovered long ago, including Lord Brahma’s soul. His new body is simply too powerful, so merging with it takes time. An ant like you could never comprehend Lord Brahma’s power! When he returns, he will erase the remnants of the nine star line. There will be no place for you in the nine heavens or ten lands!” the Silver Hair Void Crusher sneered.

Long Chen’s heart shook. He was learning more and more secrets from the Silver Hair Void Crusher, each more shocking than the last. They were so shocking that for a moment, Long Chen didn’t know how to provoke his opponent further.

At this moment, the Silver Hair Void Crusher sensed Long Chen’s intention, and his expression darkened even more. He hadn’t expected that he, an expert who had lived countless years, would actually fall for someone else’s provocations.

“Fool, knowing these things is useless. Do you really think you’ll live to tell anyone?” sneered the Silver Hair Void Crusher.

With a wave of his hand, the Silver Hair Void Crusher summoned an enormous barrier that surrounded all of the Ten Thousand Dragon Nests.

“He created a barrier just like that?!” exclaimed Xia Chen, shocked. It was the first time he had seen someone summon a barrier with just a wave. The barrier’s aura was vast and connected to the Silver Hair Void Crusher’s. It was as if the barrier was an extension of him, locking them all inside.

The barrier’s oppressive aura filled everyone with dread. They instinctively pulled away from the edges, feeling as though touching it would turn them to dust. They were like birds trapped in a cage. In any case, the Ten Thousand Dragon Nests’ barriers had already crumbled, so they felt like nothing could protect them.

Facing such a terrifying expert, they couldn’t help but feel despair. The Dragon Domain’s disciples had been tempered by countless battles, so they could stand their ground. However, the other dragon race experts who lacked battlefield experience were paralyzed by fear; some even fainted.

Seeing their reactions, the Silver Hair Void Crusher smiled smugly. “Since becoming one of the Eight Great Divine Commanders, I haven’t done much other than merging with my throne. Those fools from the Pill Valley couldn’t even send proper reports. They insulted me, a nine-vein Human Emperor, by asking me to deal with a newly ascended Saint. I’ll give you all a chance—kill yourselves, and I’ll leave your corpses intact.”

“Are you so certain? If I were a Human Emperor, would you even dare show your face here?” Long Chen sneered.

Just like that, the Silver Hair Void Crusher’s hair started to rise, his killing intent erupting. Long Chen’s words had hit a nerve.

Over the years, as one of Lord Brahma’s trusted subordinates, the Silver Hair Void Crusher had hunted down countless Nine Star heirs. The strongest was only a half-step Human Emperor, yet even then, he had nearly died. If not for the help of his comrades, there would no longer be a Silver Hair Void Crusher in this world.

This failure gnawed at the Silver Hair Void Crusher for a lifetime. The nine star heirs were reputed to be unmatched within the same realm—a claim he stubbornly refused to accept. He had always yearned to confront a Nine Star heir on equal terms but never found the opportunity.

Even then, the half-step Human Emperor Nine Star heir had pushed him to the brink of death, and this defeat infuriated him. It even crushed his Dao-heart, the core of his belief and cultivation.

Fortunately for him, Lord Brahma acknowledged his potential and did not want him to waste away. When the position of the eighth divine commander opened, he was promoted.

Each of the Eight Great Divine Commanders possessed their own divine throne, a condensation of faith energy. As long as they merged with their throne, they could break through their limits and advance into Divine Emperor realm.

However, merging with this throne was not so easy. Even after so long, the Silver Hair Void Crusher had only achieved an eighty percent merger with his throne, unable to unlock its full power.

Now, with Long Chen’s words reopening the old scars, the deep-seated humiliation and pain from his past surfaced again. That bitter, most painful memory, which he had buried away, was now fully exposed.

“You bastard, you’ll pay for your arrogance. Now you won’t even get a chance to kill yourself. I’ll show you what it means to suffer a fate worse than death!” The Silver Hair Void Crusher growled through clenched teeth.

“Boss, go. We’ll buy you time to escape. Remember to avenge us!” transmitted Yue Zifeng, taking a deep breath. He knew they stood no chance against this terrifying foe, but if they sacrificed themselves, they might create an opening for Long Chen to escape.

“Hahaha, avenge you? Keep dreaming. All of you will die today!” laughed the Silver Hair Void Crusher. He had heard Yue Zifeng’s transmission and seemed to have complete control over the barrier. Nothing could be hidden from him.

“All of us will die today? I don’t think so,” remarked Long Chen as he faced the Silver Hair Void Crusher, a burning fighting spirit igniting within him. Just like that, he charged directly at the Silver Hair Void Crusher.
