Chapter 6469 Starry River Devil Repelling Formation

“Lord Lu Ze...”

The newly arrived nine star heirs froze upon seeing Lu Ze’s wretched state.

“Kill them all! I don’t want a single one leaving here alive!” roared Lu Ze.

He had been forced to use his final trump card—summoning every nine-star heir under his command.

In truth, he had delayed this move out of greed. His desire for the Earth Cauldron had outweighed even his loyalty to the Star Prince. That was why he had forbidden his subordinates from intervening earlier.

If he could obtain the Earth Cauldron, he would instantly turn it into his divine weapon. In his mind, if Long Chen could subdue it, then so could he—and once he did, no one would dare oppose him.

Although these people were his subordinates, they would never choose him over the Star Prince. If he betrayed the Star Prince, they would undoubtedly turn their blades on him.

Thus, until now, Lu Ze had avoided calling them. By summoning them here, he had forfeited any chance of claiming the Earth Cauldron for himself. Even if he obtained it, he would be forced to hand it over.

The thought made his heart bleed with resentment. The dream of mastering a primal chaos divine item was slipping through his fingers.

“Lord Lu Ze, that’s the original devil race,” one of the nine-star heirs said. “The Star Master ordered that they be captured alive...”

“Ying He, are you defying me?!” Lu Ze bellowed. “Which matters more—the original devil race or the Earth Cauldron?! Stop talking and attack!”

Although Ying He was nominally Lu Ze’s subordinate, his background was also very strong, and he was only slightly weaker than Lu Ze. Moreover, he was one of the Star Prince’s most devoted followers—the one Lu Ze feared most.

Only when Lu Ze barked his order did the others finally notice the bronze cauldron behind the original devil race experts. Their hearts trembled.

“Everyone, obey Lord Lu Ze’s orders! Slaughter the original devil race!”

“Kill!”

Hearing that, tens of thousands of nine star heirs unleashed roars of slaughter. Astral light blazed out of them as they shot toward the original devil race’s camp like shooting stars.

“Protect Long Chen!” All the original devil experts roared in unison.

This time, they didn’t swear to protect their sacred daughter. They knew their strength was vastly inferior to that of the nine star line. None of them expected to survive, including their sacred daughter.

They had only known Long Chen for a few days. However, his fearless heroism had deeply affected them. Since he had shown that he was willing to die for them, they were willing to do the same for him.

Their previous contract with the nine star line had already been abolished. However, Long Chen had used his hot blood to forge a new contract between them.

Although Long Chen was also a nine star heir, the original devil experts were willing to spill their blood and lose their lives to protect Long Chen from the evil nine star heirs.

They faced the mightiest warriors of this world. Despite knowing that there was no going back, not a single expert from the original devil race retreated.

BOOM!

A thunderous explosion shook the battlefield. Fei Shuang’s arm quivered as she and Yue Xiaoqian combined their strength, knocking Lu Ze backward.

Standing shoulder to shoulder, they exchanged a glance and nodded. It was a wordless pact that they were prepared to fight to the death.

Both of them formed hand seals. The divine runes on their foreheads flared as they prepared to ignite their essence runes, using their lives to form a final barrier between Long Chen and the nine star heirs.

Just then, the Earth Cauldron’s voice rang out in Yue Xiaoqian’s mind.

“Don’t go all out. For now, form the Starry River Devil Repelling Formation.”

Startled, Yue Xiaoqian hastily responded, “We’ve long since lost the inheritance of the Starry River Devil Repelling Formation. Furthermore, it requires us to join forces with the nine star line’s experts—”

“I will transmit the complete formation to you,” the Earth Cauldron interrupted. “Fei Shuang will be the formation eye, and you may draw on the astral energy above. Though you won’t match the level of your ancestors, it will suffice to hold them off for a while.”

A flood of ancient knowledge poured into Yue Xiaoqian’s mind. At the same time, every member of the original devil race received the same transmission.

The devil race’s warriors, who had been charging forward, suddenly fell back. Seeing this, the nine star heirs sneered.

“So it was just empty bravado. Pitiful ants. Don’t resist, and we’ll make it painless.”

But before their mocking laughter faded, the “Devil” characters on the foreheads of the original devil race ignited.

Just as the nine star heirs reached the original devil experts, the latter vanished.

“What?”

The nine star heirs turned around and saw that the original devil experts were now standing beneath the Earth Cauldron, lining up in a strange formation.

“Don’t get distracted!” shouted Lu Ze. “Kill them now and seize the Earth Cauldron! This is our only chance before those who’ve absorbed karmic luck and mastered law power arrive!”

Lu Ze’s way of thinking was not wrong. Although he had condensed his essence rune, his law power wasn’t perfect yet. There was still a large room for improvement.

However, he still chose to fight now. He was confident that if he could seize the Earth Cauldron before everyone was done absorbing this karmic luck energy, no one would be able to threaten him. Then, he would still have enough time to absorb the karmic luck and perfect his law power.

Just as the army of the nine star line arrived in front of the Earth Cauldron, the original devil experts formed hand seals that caused the skyful of stars to quiver. Starlight fell and formed a huge formation centered around Fei Shuang.

Fei Shuang pressed her hands against Yue Xiaoqian’s back, channeling the astral power into her. Yue Xiaoqian’s essence rune ignited, and the runes on every devil race warrior started to shine with starlight.

“This is...”

“Impossible!”

“The original devil race can use astral energy?!”

“This must be fake!”

Everyone from the nine star line, including Lu Ze and Ying He, was filled with disbelief.

They didn’t recognize the Starry River Devil Repelling Formation, but they knew the power they felt—it was astral energy. Every single original devil expert was enveloped in it. This was an unfathomable blow to their worldview.

“Don’t let them link up! Quick, kill them!” shouted Lu Ze in a panic.

His astral energy was nearly drained from his battle with Fei Shuang, so he stayed back to recover while the others charged forward.

“Die!”

Ying He was the fastest and immediately sent a heaven-shaking punch at the original devil race. But before it could land, a starry curtain of light rose from the ground, enveloping the entire group.

Ying He’s fist smashed into the barrier, and he was instantly blasted backward like a falling meteor.
