Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts-Chapter 5994 New Spirit Awakener

“S-senior Long Chen...”

The speaker was a new disciple who had just passed the trials to enter Sovereign Mountain—Xie Wanyi.

The moment she saw Long Chen, she was both startled and overjoyed. Instinctively, she almost shouted his name, but recalling Long Chen’s status as a Spirit Awakener, she quickly corrected herself.

Long Chen was fond of Xie Wanyi. She was genuine—kind, yet passionate. Looking at her was like glimpsing his younger self: pure, naive, and burning with an unstoppable drive. That kind of energy was contagious.

“Open your mouth and close your eyes. I have something good for you,” Long Chen said with a soft smile.

This strange request baffled Xie Wanyi. Her cheeks flushed red, but she obeyed.

Then, violet qi surged out of Long Chen, forming a barrier that sealed off the space around them, cutting off outside vision. Such actions were prohibited within the Violet Cloud Pavilion, but Long Chen didn’t care about such rules.

Once the barrier was complete, a violet fruit appeared in Long Chen’s palm. Its surface glimmered with divine runes. This was Bi Xingyao’s Heavenly Dao Fruit.

More than just pure karmic luck, this fruit held the essence of a Spirit Awakener. It dissolved in Long Chen’s hand, its energy flowing directly into Xie Wanyi’s waiting mouth.

Xie Wanyi only felt an enormous amount of energy flowing down her throat and then spreading throughout her whole body. The violet blood within her body boiled, and her Sovereign sprout flame raged on its own.

That raging power surged violently within her, threatening to tear her apart. Just as she started to panic, Long Chen gently tapped her forehead with a single finger.

A violet “One” character appeared and merged into her body. Instantly, the violent surge calmed down.

Xie Wanyi slowly opened her eyes and stared at Long Chen in disbelief, too emotional to say a word. Although she didn’t know what had just happened, her senses told her Long Chen had just given her a massive piece of good fortune.

“Senior Long Chen...” Xie Wanyi muttered, her voice quivering.

She wanted to ask what that was, but she didn’t dare to.

“You can call me big brother. We are all warriors of the violet blood race, and I’m very proud to have a little sister who is as upright and brave as you,” Long Chen said, patting Xie Wanyi’s shoulder softly.

At those words, Xie Wanyi finally broke down, her tears flowing freely. She once had a big brother just like this—someone who had smiled at her the same way. But she had watched him die in front of her, unable to do anything. That memory had scarred her deeply.

Long Chen rubbed her head and consoled her. “Keep working hard. Only by reaching the peak can we protect what is most precious to us.”

Xie Wanyi nodded, eyes red but heart steady. She felt as if Long Chen could see straight into her soul, understanding everything about her in a single glance.

Once she composed herself, Long Chen dispelled the barrier, and the two exited the Violet Cloud Pavilion. Then, they ran into Elder Huang Xuan, who was leading a few excited new disciples inside.

“Oh, Long Chen? What a coincidence!” greeted Huang Xuan.

Although he was a Sovereign Lord, Long Chen’s status far outstripped his own as Mountain Protecting Elder.

“Elder Huang Xuan, do you have some time? I want to entrust something to you,” said Long Chen.

“What is it? Just leave it to me. You don’t even need to ask,” replied Huang Xuan frankly.

“If you have time, I’d like you to bring Wanyi to reclimb the divine staircase.”

“Reclimb it?”

Huang Xuan was baffled.

The divine staircase was meant to be climbed only once. That was a firm rule. If anyone could just walk it repeatedly, wouldn’t chaos ensue?

Huang Xuan was just about to explain that he'd need to consult the mountain lord when his gaze fell on Xie Wanyi, and his heart trembled.

Something was off.

Huang Xuan remembered her. When he first saw her, she had potential but was relatively weak. He had even offered her a few words of encouragement.

But now... Her aura was vast as a boundless sea. Her violet blood energy even contained a certain kind of spirituality that was very similar to a Spirit Awakener. freёweɓnovel.com

“Alright, I’ll bring her now,” said Huang Xuan.

Huang Xuan wasn’t a fool. He didn’t understand what had happened to Xie Wanyi, but if Long Chen made the request, there had to be a reason.

Suddenly, a memory struck him—the mountain lord had personally told him to look after someone named Xie Wanyi. He had been so busy that he nearly forgot, and cold sweat trickled down his back.

Xie Wanyi was lost. She didn’t understand why Long Chen wanted her to climb the divine staircase again. But when she saw Elder Huang Xuan brush aside the disciples he was guiding, she thickened her skin and followed him.

“My apologies,” said Long Chen to the new disciples. “If you wait a bit, Elder Huang Xuan will return soon. I won’t delay you too long.”

“You’re too courteous!” said those disciples hastily.

They were newcomers and didn’t yet know who Long Chen was. But after seeing a Sovereign Lord treat him with such deference, they would be fools not to realize that this man was someone extraordinary.

An incense stick’s time later, news spread through Sovereign Mountain like wildfire—another new Spirit Awakener had emerged. Her name was Xie Wanyi.

Sovereign Mountain had just welcomed Long Chen when they lost Bi Xingyao. Though his death left them mourning, Long Chen’s Infinity-One Technique could ease their loss.

Now, with the sudden birth of a new Spirit Awakener, joy erupted once more.

Mountain lord Qingyu personally appeared on the divine staircase to welcome Xie Wanyi. She immediately proclaimed Xie Wanyi as her final disciple.

The other three mountain lords rolled their eyes. To think the mountain lord would jump so quickly to snatch a disciple...

However, she said that Long Chen had told her to look after Xie Wanyi. With both Long Chen and Huang Xuan able to testify, this couldn’t be considered stealing a disciple.

Only now did Xie Wanyi realize: Long Chen had paved the path for her all along. Her gratitude for him surged to the extreme. From this day forward, he was her true brother.

And so, including Long Chen, Sovereign Mountain now had fourteen Spirit Awakeners. Still, some couldn’t help but feel regret over Bi Xingyao’s death.

“If he hadn’t died,” they murmured, “we’d have fifteen.”

But they didn’t understand—if Bi Xingyao hadn’t died, there would be no Spirit Awakener Xie Wanyi.

Everything unfolded just as Long Chen expected, but he didn’t linger to watch. He was heading up the main peak of Sovereign Mountain.

Qingyu had told Long Chen that if he reached a bottleneck in his cultivation and no one could help him, he should climb the mountain peak to test his luck.

In the Violet Cloud Pavilion, Long Chen had absorbed a tremendous number of runes. But they were chaotic within his body, scattered and disordered. He hadn’t made any progress on the Infinity-One Technique.

Qingyu seemed to be trying to guide him to something, so Long Chen chose to follow her guidance and climb.
