Xia Chen/Cultivation

== Karmic luck ==
Xia Chen was a formation cultivator who didn’t face enemies head-on. In a one against one, any member of the Dragonblood Legion could easily fight across realms. Killing any Life Star expert was no problem.
However, Xia Chen was different. By himself and without pre-arranged formations, he had practically no combat power. Let alone fighting across realms, if others managed to get close to him, even if it was just someone at Foundation Forging, they would pose a fatal threat to him.
That was a fatal weakness of formation cultivators. Xia Chen was upgrading the Dragonblood Legion’s collective power, but if they didn’t upgrade Xia Chen as well, he might be the first sacrifice in their next battle, especially if they encountered assassins from the Bloodkill Hall.
Every little bit of karmic luck was an increased chance of him surviving. Meng Qi, Chu Yao, Tang Wan-er, and the others were already skilled enough in protecting themselves. In comparison, Xia Chen needed it far more.
Long Chen gives Xia Chen an orb of Karmic luck.
Xia Chen had activated his Heavenly Dao manifestation but was still unable to absorb this rainbow divine light. Furthermore, the rainbow light was starting to show signs of dissipating. Xia Chen panicked.
All the Xuantian Dao Sect’s disciples let out startled cries. Why was it that Guo Ran could absorb Long Chen’s blessing, but Xia Chen couldn’t absorb Guo Ran’s blessing?
“Long Chen, this blessing comes from the Devil Slaughter Divine Tablet. Only the top ten can absorb it. People who aren’t in the top ten haven’t won the approval of the Heavenly Daos and so they can’t absorb it.” Li Tianxuan’s voice rang out.
Li Tianxuan had suddenly recalled that there seemed to be such a legend. However, this legend had never been confirmed because in all of history, there had never appeared a case of someone giving their karmic luck to someone else.
This legend had mostly been forgotten by everyone. He had only thought of it when he saw that Xia Chen was unable to absorb the rainbow light.
The Heavenly Daos were once more interfering. Long Chen’s divine ring suddenly appeared. Divine pressure crashed down. The world froze.
A five-point star was present within the divine ring, forcibly locking in the rainbow light that was about to dissipate and beginning to gather it up.
=== Heavenly fury ===
Suddenly, heavenly pressure erupted and the will of the Heavenly Daos descended. The heavens were enraged.
That karmic luck was a portion of the Heavenly Daos’ will, and Long Chen was forcibly suppressing it. That instantly angered the Heavenly Daos.
The explosive rumbling continued to erupt through the void. Heavenly might crashed down, and the color of the world changed. Everyone’s expressions changed. In the face of this heavenly might, terror involuntarily burst out of the depths of their souls.
Wasn’t it just heavenly fury? It wasn’t as if that hadn’t happened before. As long as it didn’t let loose heavenly tribulation, Long Chen didn’t care if the heavens were angered. In any case, when his tribulation came, the heavens wouldn’t go easy on him.
His divine ring revolved, unleashing immense power that resisted the heavenly might. The five-point star within it emitted blinding light that suppressed the karmic luck. In the end, it was freed from the restrictions of the Heavenly Daos and began to be absorbed by Xia Chen.
“As expected of a Heaven-Defier. Even in the face of the Heavenly Daos, he has to make sure to tear off a bite.”
The rainbow light around Xia Chen slowly vanished as the blessing of the Heavenly Daos had been absorbed by him. The heavenly might also faded slowly once he finished absorbing it. Things returned to calm.
Long Chen put away his divine ring. More and more, he felt that his decision had been correct. That so-called blessing of the Heavenly Daos would not be able to bless him. His Nine Star Hegemon Body Art went directly against the Heavenly Dao, so how could the Heavenly Daos possibly bless him? If they didn’t curse him, that would already be pretty good.
He felt that his decision to leave this Heavenly Dao blessing to Guo Ran and Xia Chen had been the wisest decision. Otherwise, it would have been wasted.
“Boss, the Heavenly Daos will remember this disrespect. I don’t feel very safe,” said Xia Chen worriedly.
Xia Chen was a normal cultivator. In his eyes, Long Chen’s methods were completely against the natural order of the world.
