Chapter 1837 - I Don’t Regret It

Chapter 1837: I Don’t Regret It Cyril—who was located in the vital juncture of the spell formation—exclaimed in astonishment upon seeing the scenes in the sky,
Oi, oi, oi… Chen Chen, there’s no need to fight so wildly, is there? Are you genuinely going all out?

Chen Chen took a huge amount of pressure off Cyril as he held the Heavenly Light Goddess back.
Meanwhile, Cyril mulled over whether or not he should dive into the ground and battle against the Heavenly Earth God. After all, the operation of the spell formation could be left to the Ancient Dragon Empress, Demon Emperor Si Yu, and the remaining Heavenly Disciple candidates. Even if ordinary Heavenly Gods came, they wouldn’t be able to breach this spell formation.
Cultivators of the Heaven Crushing Sect loved to battle, and Cyril was no different.
A blood-thirsty glow gradually appeared in his crimson eyes. Then, his muscles started to bulge, and a pair of jet-black bat wings materialized behind his back. He slowly licked his lips.
Boom!
A deafening collision suddenly erupted outside the spell formation.

Huh?
The blood-thirsty glow in Cyril’s eyes suddenly dimmed down.
As he looked past the barrier of the spell formation, he saw that a bloody hole had already appeared in Chen Chen’s chest. An orb of light continued to explode in this wound, and it unleashed a devastating destructive power that seemed like it wanted to completely obliterate Chen Chen’s body.
However, these explosions were all contained within a certain pocket of space, and they were unable to spread to other parts of Chen Chen’s body.
The shattered sky had already been patched up by the countless beams of pure white light.
Meanwhile, a stunningly beautiful Heavenly Goddess stood proudly in the air. Her body was composed of countless specks of light, and she measured over one million feet in height. Behind her, there was a gigantic wheel formed from nine hundred and ninety thousand distinctly different phenomena. It was as though all of heaven and earth were encompassed within them.
Just like that, she gazed at the male who had been crushed into the exterior of the spell formation.

Chen Chen, I’m indeed unable to kill you right now. However, severely wounding you is no problem at all. The unhealable light wound on your chest is my punishment for you. The next time we meet, I’ll wipe you off the face of this world once and for all…
The Heavenly Light Goddess’ voice was indifferent, yet it contained a boundless heavenly might.
When she finished speaking, she transformed into specks of shimmering light and disappeared from the Land of Eternal Light.
The terrifying aura radiating from the Heavenly Earth God also disappeared at this instant. Along with it, the relentless attacks of the geothermal energy and earthquakes also disappeared.
The gigantic lava dragons in the sky all exploded into bits. Then, they transformed into a torrential lava rain that lashed down onto the ground.
Splash…
The blazing hot lava rain signified the end of this terrifying surprise attack.
Complex emotions ran through the minds of the cultivators as they looked up at the torrential lava rain.
This was the first time they had seen paramount Heavenly Gods in action. However, the overwhelming power they possessed and the devastating attacks they launched all made them feel a deep sense of helplessness.
Fortunately, their Heavenly Disciples all performed admirably. Although they weren’t able to defeat the paramount Heavenly Gods, the paramount Heavenly Gods weren’t able to kill them either.

Chen Chen!
A flustered expression appeared on Xue Yan’s aloof face. She quickly flew toward the nearby male and carefully helped him up from the ground. Then, she asked anxiously,
Are you okay?

Chen Chen chuckled bitterly.
I might have to enter seclusion and recuperate for a while.

Xue Yan pursed her lips as she looked at the continually exploding orb of light in Chen Chen’s chest.
Sorry… I wasn’t able to help you…
she said with a look of shame.
Several figures flew out from the Heaven Crushing Glazed Palace and dashed toward Chen Chen.
They were all core members of the Heaven Crushing Sect, and each of them had a rank of the Dao Integration Stage.
Cyril, the Ancient Dragon Empress, Demon Emperor Si Yu, and several other super-mighty beings also hurried to Chen Chen’s side. They all wore anxious expressions as they tried to make sense of Chen Chen’s condition.
Cyril couldn’t help but chide Chen Chen as he carefully examined his wounds,
Sigh… Chen Chen, you’re still too impulsive…

You forced the Heavenly Light Goddess to act, and she’ll indeed suffer a backlash from the Heavenly Dao. However, are you any better off yourself? Look at yourself. Apart from suppressing the Heavenly Light Power with all your might, what else can you do? This has already affected your success rate of becoming Heaven!

Chen Chen smiled gently upon hearing Cyril’s words.
I made this decision after a lot of careful thought.

Xue Yan’s heart throbbed in pain.
Do you think your actions were worth it?


Of course they were worth it!
Chen Chen replied resolutely.
Even if I had to choose again, I would still make the exact same decision. I don’t regret it.

Xue Yan pursed her lips. It was clear that she was a bit angry.

Okay, I need to tend to my wounds now. If there’s anything else, we can talk about it later.
Chen Chen didn’t want to continue this conversation, and he directly walked toward the Heaven Crushing Glazed Palace.
The remaining cultivators all looked on helplessly. In the Heaven Crushing Sect, even Cyril wasn’t able to control Chen Chen. With that being the case, what could these remaining cultivators do? Even the Ancient Dragon Empress could only look on helplessly!

Why does Master treat An Lin so well?
There was a melancholy look on the Ancient Dragon Empress’ face as she crossed her arms before her chest.
She had initially thought that Chen Chen was merely a bit friendlier and a bit more lenient toward An Lin in some aspects. Looking at it now, however, it seemed like she had underestimated Chen Chen’s feelings toward An Lin.
An aloof and ethereal voice traveled over.

If An Lin betrays Chen Chen’s feelings, then I’ll make him pay a heavy price, even if that means gambling my life!

Xue Yan humphed in anger before gracefully following Chen Chen into the Heaven Crushing Glazed Palace.
The Ancient Dragon Empress scratched her dragon horns in confusion. 
Are we talking about the same thing?

…
Meanwhile, fifteen thousand kilometers from the Land of Eternal Light…
An Lin trod over the blazing earth as he continued forward. He extended his hands and caught the lava rain pouring down from the sky.
When the lava rain—which was so hot that it distorted the air—landed in his hands, it emitted a burst of soft sizzling sounds.
Although his physical body had already been tempered to the Dao Integration Pinnacle Stage, he could still feel a pang of searing pain shoot through his hands.

Not only does this power contain an extremely high temperature, but it also contains the immensely terrifying power of the earth. Even though this lava rain is merely the result of a Heavenly God being too lazy to dispel his spell technique, it’s still nothing short of a deadly nightmare for supreme beings of the Return to Void Stage…

An Lin gazed at the lava rain, which stretched for almost as far as the eye could see. Looking at the distant horizon, it seemed like heaven and earth were both fused together by the blazing drops of lava. No matter where one fled, they would still be pounded by this devastating lava rain.

Fortunately, this place is a barren land. Otherwise, it truly would’ve been an unimaginable massacre…

Just how devastating was this torrential lava rain?
If this torrential lava rain landed on Earth, then Earth would be melted and obliterated in the blink of an eye!

I wonder if Chen Chen’s fine.
An Lin thought back to the final moment of the battle. When he had seen that mighty female, his body couldn’t help but tremble in fear. The might that she possessed completely washed anew his impressions of power.
This was especially the case when he saw the nine hundred and ninety thousand distinctly different phenomena materialize behind her back. Each of the phenomena was extremely intricate and mystical. It was as if they were all dao that had been cultivated to the most supreme level. An Lin didn’t dare imagine how terrifying and devastating this power would be if it was unleashed without restraints.

It seems like… the Heavenly Light Goddess is even more kickass than the Heavenly Earth God!

With this in mind, An Lin couldn’t help but start to worry about Chen Chen and the others again. He immediately quickened his pace.
Before long, an expanse of land that was paved with an unknown type of pure white stone appeared before An Lin’s eyes. A peculiar light—which seemed to carry a feeling of unyielding hope—enveloped the entire space. In the center of the land, there stood an extremely lofty and magnificent palace.

Who’s there?!


An Lin… He’s An Lin!


Hurry! Hurry up and notify the Heavenly Disciples!

Before An Lin could even open his mouth to speak, several members of the Heaven Crushing Sect had already become extremely animated. One of them frantically rushed over to greet him, and another hurriedly used his divine intent to notify the higher-ups within the Heaven Crushing Glazed Palace.
