Chapter 725 - Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal
Chapter 725 - Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal
Long Chen thought carefully. He had just reached the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage, and it was too soon for him to strive for the Sixth Earthly Martial Stage. He needed time to get used to his new power. It was a good time to cultivate the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal. To prevent any incidents from happening, he took out the Profound Golden Soul from the Primordial Realm.
Without any rest after achieving the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage, he started cultivating the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal. He was very hardworking and refused to yield to life’s difficulties. This was for the sake of taking Ling Xi back fair and square in the future!
“Little Cat, how will I get out of here if I use the Profound Golden Soul to cultivate the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal? I will have to consume it.”
It would be difficult for Long Chen to dig out from so deep underground without the Profound Golden Soul.
“Don’t worry about it. It’ll be consumed when you cultivate the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal, but it won’t completely disappear. Instead, it’ll exist in another form in your body. The Profound Golden Soul doesn’t have much use on you since you don’t specialize in metal-based martial techniques, so it's best for you to just use it. But it would be exceedingly painful to hold both the power of fire and metal in a single Martial Meridian. Regular people would die from the pain.”
With Little Cat’s guarantee, Long Chen was much relaxed. He didn’t hesitate to start cultivating after a brief rest.
How strong would the combined attack of the Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal and the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal be?
Long Chen anticipated the results, but first, he had to jump through the first major obstacle: cultivating the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal.
He had familiarized himself with the cultivation method since it was similar to that of the Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal. The hard part was fusing both of them together.
The Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal was filled with fire energy, while the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal was filled with metal energy. Thankfully, they complemented each other, so the difficulty wouldn’t spike quite as sharply as cultivating the other seals. It would be a different story if Long Chen attempted to fuse water and fire energy together. The violent reaction would’ve caused his body to explode.
“Good luck, brat. I know that your body can withstand the force, but can you endure the pain? If you can, you are truly a dragon amongst men. If not, you are just a worm.” Little Cat chuckled.
Long Chen ignored him. He was holding the Profound Golden Soul in front of him as he breathed in deeply.
“Time to start.”
The Profound Golden Soul gradually landed on his right palm. It was where the Five Emperor Seals were located. Out of the five, the Scarlet Emperor Seal was the brightest. When the Profound Golden Soul got close to his palm, the Golden Emperor Seal lit up too.

Long Chen sensed that his control over the Profound Golden Soul deteriorated rapidly. The Golden Emperor Seal then sucked in the Profound Golden Soul, causing it to stick to his palm. The Golden Emperor Seal converted it into a golden liquid before taking it in.
The golden liquid flowed through the Golden Emperor Seal and traveled into Long Chen’s Martial Meridian in his right palm. It was where the energy of the Scarlet Emperor Seal dwelled. Now the energies were fighting for dominance!
As the energies of metal and fire clashed, Long Chen winced from the pain. Merging energies was not simple; he felt like his arm was going to explode. It was already difficult enough to not get cramps from the pain, much less cultivate through it. Long Chen was sweating profusely when he realized that it would be difficult to merge both energies into the same Martial Meridian.
The fire energy had taken most of the space in his Martial Meridian, and now the metal energy arrival was threatening the fire energy’s spot. The metal energy was slowly flowing into his Martial Meridian thanks to the Profound Golden Soul. It was definitely a treasure leagues above the Blue Devil Flame, so the energy it produced could overpower the fire energy for now.
The pain was overbearing. Blood-red fire and golden metallic flashes appeared as they clashed again and again. The two energies were fighting for space in his right arm. Long Chen’s face was pale. It was extremely difficult for him to control his arm right now.
Long Chen had to start cultivating the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal before harmonizing the two energies. He had a feeling that he would fail many times before he succeeded.
“I have to endure such hardships to become stronger!” Long Chen grit his teeth and endured. His willpower had always been far superior compared to others at his age. He used his Martial Soul to control the essence from the other eight Martial Meridians to suppress the clashing energy.
The pain subsided significantly after he did that. He then used his essence to separate the two energies. While he was doing so, he had to start cultivating the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal at the same time. It would be bad for him if he dragged it out.
The fire energy in his Martial Meridian was amplified by the Golden Crow Flames. It was a terrifying power that refused to let go of its territory in the Martial Meridian.
But with Long Chen, the master of the body, controlling it, the fire energy had no choice but to be silent.
Even so, he was running out of time, because he wasn’t sure how much longer he could suppress both energies.
I need to go all out! Long Chen focused on cultivating the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal and ignored all the distractions from the outside world. He ignored the pain and suffering, leaving only his willpower to cultivate it!
“Metal, the symbol of sharpness and sturdiness. An energy that embodies cold slaughter!”
Of the five elements, metal and fire were both elements with strong offensive properties. That was the reason why the clashing of the two energies was so intense right now. It was like two ancient beasts fighting each other!
Thanks to his experience in cultivating the Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal, it was much easier for him to cultivate the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal, especially since there was a large amount of metal energy deep underground. With the help from the Golden Emperor Seal, a faint stream of Qi started flowing from the metallic sand towards Long Chen. Every grain of sand only contained a bit of Metal Qi, but with so much metallic sand around him, the faint stream soon became a torrent that flowed into his body through the Golden Emperor Seal.
The amount of metal energy in his body grew rapidly.
Using the Profound Golden Soul as the catalyst, Long Chen utilized the energy coming from the Metal Qi to cultivate the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal. Just like the Scarlet Emperor Burning Heaven Seal, the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal slowly formed in his palm. The Golden Emperor Seal lit up, looking just like the Scarlet Emperor Seal.
Inside his Martial Meridian, Long Chen used his essence to separate both energies. On the left was the surging torrent of fire energy while on the right was the dazzling metal energy. Both of them were circling around his core, but Long Chen was keeping them apart with his essence.
He had succeeded in cultivating the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal!
That was the first part of the entire cultivation process. The second part was to combine two energies. This was a delicate process. Long Chen gradually released some of his essence and allowed the two energies to merge slowly. Once they had gotten used to each other, the backlash from the merging wouldn’t be that violent.
I need a lot of time to merge the two energies. It might take half a month ... Long Chen took a rough guess.
Merging the two energies required willpower and patience since he would have to endure the pain constantly. Even though the two energies were completed, they were still violent and constantly clashed with each other.
“No choice but to continue enduring it ...”
Deep underground, Long Chen gave the two energies a lot of time to slowly merge. Time passed. Thankfully, the merging process was much faster than he had estimated.
By the time Long Chen released all of his essence, the Blue Devil Flame and the Profound Golden Soul were both slowly circling around his core in the Martial Meridian.
The cultivation of the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal had officially been completed.
Long Chen sensed a terrifying power in his palm. The destruction that the two powers would cause was unimaginable.
When he finished cultivating, Long Chen felt like he had been reborn.
“The path to cultivation has always been harsh. No one can succeed in it easily. No matter what happens, one must endure the pain and become stronger just like me. I am now several times stronger than before!”
Fifth Earthly Martial Stage with two of the Five Emperor Seals.
He was now as strong as a Seventh Earthly Martial Stage cultivator.
Should I continue and advance into the Sixth Earthly Martial Stage, or should I leave first? It will be hard to find such an amazing place to cultivate elsewhere, but I won’t grow without experiencing new difficulties ...
