Chapter 5224 The Nine Forms of Split the Heavens

“The strongest attack?”

Long Chen’s heart shook. Waning Moon Pierces the Dome of the Heavens was already the strongest technique he had ever seen, but Evilmoon had something even stronger?

“I have awakened eighteen divine abilities. Nine are my own, and the other nine require us to work together. Waning Moon Pierces the Dome of the Heavens is only the first technique,” said Evilmoon, its voice tinged with a touch of pride.

“Just the first technique?” Long Chen’s jaw dropped. He found it hard to believe but didn’t dare accuse Evilmoon of bragging as it had a temper. If what it said was true, this was beyond crazy.

“I know you’re wondering why we’re jumping from the initial technique straight to the final one, right?” Evilmoon asked.

Long Chen nodded, so Evilmoon explained, “That’s because your power cannot support that many techniques, and I feel like learning the first and the last move is enough. After all, when you have limited resources, you have to be efficient.”

Hearing Evilmoon’s explanation, Long Chen found that it was reasonable.

Evilmoon then added, “This move is simple as well, but you have to control the power carefully. Don’t let it absorb all your energy, in particular, don’t let your other bloodlines join in, or it’ll be dangerous.”

Suddenly, Evilmoon shook, and its runes started to explode. The runes within Long Chen’s body followed suit, multiplying into millions and then billions.

All the runes ignited at the same time, causing Long Chen to quiver as a powerful suction force started drawing energy from every inch of his body. His dragon blood, seven-color Supreme Blood, and astral energy surged violently, eager to join the fray.

“Control them!” shouted Evilmoon.

Long Chen didn’t need the reminder. Instinctively, he was already holding them back. As the runes ignited, they extracted nearly all his violet blood energy, forming a violet saber identical to Evilmoon within him.

Long Chen’s hand trembled as this violet saber materialized in his hand as well. The world seemed to shudder in front of this saber. It was as if this violet Evilmoon was starving, trying to drain every bit of Long Chen’s power to fuel itself. Long Chen strained to control it, preventing it from absorbing the other energies within him.

The violet Evilmoon was like a wild horse, refusing to be tamed and attempting to dominate Long Chen. The clash of their wills was intense, lasting the time it took for an incense stick to burn. Finally, drenched in sweat, Long Chen felt the violet Evilmoon stop resisting.

However, the battle had cost him dearly—ninety percent of his violet blood energy was already spent.

BOOM!

The violet Evilmoon exploded, transforming into violet mist that returned to Long Chen’s body.

“Was it a failure?” asked Long Chen.

“No, quite the opposite. We’ve succeeded, and you are now in control of this technique. Next time, we can use it together, but that’s our trump card. Once we use it, all of our energy will be extracted, leaving us powerless. That’s why this move should not be used lightly. You saw how long it took for your violet blood to control it—if you used your full power, it would instantly drain every last drop of your energy,” Evilmoon said sternly.

“Every drop of energy? Without leaving anything behind?”

“If Huo Linger and Lei Linger are connected to you, their energies will be sucked away as well.”

“Damn, how strong is this move?!” Long Chen had an expression of inconceivable disbelief on his face. He didn’t even know how strong Huo Linger and Lei Linger were. If all of their energies were absorbed into one attack, it really would be apocalyptic.

“That’s why you should be cautious about using this move,” Evilmoon warned, not forgetting to take a jab at the Earth Cauldron. “And don’t count on that useless cauldron—it just sits there eating, never lifting a finger to help. Its specialty is watching you struggle.”

Long Chen felt a bit awkward. Evilmoon seemed to have a natural disdain for the Earth Cauldron. Fortunately, the cauldron had a good temper and didn’t argue with Evilmoon. Otherwise, Long Chen would be caught in a difficult position.

In truth, the Earth Cauldron HAD helped Long Chen many times, though it did so discreetly, likely to avoid attracting harmful karma. Long Chen was well aware of this.

“Alright, I understand. I will not use this move unless I have no other choice. Speaking of which, what is the name of this move?” asked Long Chen.

“The name can’t be revealed yet. When the time comes to use it, I’ll tell you,” said Evilmoon. “For now, I think the Waning Moon technique is too exhausting for you. Let’s try out something less draining but still powerful.”

“There’s such a good thing?” asked Long Chen.

“Of course. Take your nine forms of Split the Heavens for example. Now that your body has the Waning Moon’s power, we can carve the runes for the nine forms of Split the Heavens on my body again. When all nine forms are layered, the energy required will be minimal, but the power will be immense!” Evilmoon said.

Long Chen slapped his leg excitedly and jumped up. “That’s right, how did I not think of this? Quick, let’s carve the runes together right now!”

With Evilmoon’s reminder, Long Chen became incredibly excited. The nine forms of Split the Heavens might be a technique from the mortal world, but it was still an exquisite technique. Layering all nine forms would multiply their power, allowing him to unleash devastating force with minimal energy.

Without delay, Long Chen started carving the runes onto Evilmoon. Previously, they had only reached the seventh form before Long Chen’s power fell short. After all, each rune had to be inscribed with the cumulative power of all previous runes. When Long Chen could no longer endure that power, they had to stop.

But this time, Long Chen had the necessary strength. He was also surprised that the original runes he had carved onto Evilmoon had vanished.

This delighted Long Chen, as it allowed him to start fresh. Now, with the power of the Waning Moon within him, he could carve the runes anew. As Evilmoon had said, using this power to inscribe the runes would make their cooperation effortless.

The two of them spent more than a quarter of the day doing this. When the runes were finally etched onto Evilmoon, Long Chen shouted in excitement. He felt an overwhelming urge to dive into another battle, just like the last one.

“Time’s up. Let's settle our debts now!” Long Chen declared, raising Evilmoon with a sinister smile. His figure blurred, and he vanished in an instant.
