Chapter 574: Chapter 286 Shock of Ah Jiu_2

Long Dangdang immediately opened his eyes, enduring a headache to sit up.

The room was still the same resting area used by the demon hunting team, and at this moment sat a familiar figure on the sofa in the resting area.

"Chief? Why are you here?" Long Dangdang looked at Ah Jiu on the couch in surprise, hurriedly got out of bed and gave him a knight salute.

Ah Jiu glared at him irritably, "You have the nerve to ask why I came? If I didn’t come, would you have torn the Devil Realm apart?"

Long Dangdang looked shocked, "No! We were just training normally in the Devil Realm. Although we moved through levels more than others, we didn’t destroy the plane, right?"

Ah Jiu stood up, staring at him coldly, "Normal training? Do you know that you’ve caused a disaster? Since the creation of the Devil Realm, your entry this time has caused the most energy loss. It’s already affecting the balance of the Devil Realm. If there’s a bit more loss, the Devil Realm might even collapse. You tell me, is this normal training? The Temple Headquarters has already sent a senior official to question this matter, you need to give us an explanation."

"Ah? It affects the balance of the Devil Realm?" This was truly beyond Long Dangdang’s expectations, and he couldn’t help but be shocked for a moment.

"Tell me, what exactly did you do?" asked Ah Jiu.

Long Dangdang hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth, it was impossible not to, as there was no other way around it.

"Chief, here’s what happened. We were indeed normally training and moving through levels. But what’s different from other people is that my younger brother has an Elemental Vortex Spirit Furnace. His Elemental Vortex Spirit Furnace can absorb the energy in the air during our fight and supply it to us after filtration. Is it possible that devouring too much is affecting the stability of the Devil Realm?"

Ah Jiu frowned, "That’s not right, what’s your ability level? Do you know how much energy the Devil Realm lost? Translated into Spiritual Power, it’s millions. What’s your brother’s Cultivation Level? Could he have devoured so much spiritual power? Did you do anything else?"

Long Dangdang replied helplessly, "Really, we didn’t do anything else. When my younger brother’s Elemental Vortex Spirit Furnace is absorbing energy, it’s selective, removing the impurities and retaining the essence, so the actual Spiritual Power retained is far less than what he absorbed. Besides, you know that I have a Clear Moon Vast Ocean Spirit Furnace, right? This furnace of mine has an ability– Different Means Same Goal–to store a portion of the spiritual power."

Ah Jiu was stunned, he really hadn’t thought that this would be the case, "But that’s not possible either. You didn’t spend a lot of time inside, it was even less than the last time, how did you absorb it all so quickly?"

Long Dangdang coughed, "My younger brother’s Elemental Vortex Spirit Furnace has reached the 3rd Rank. And, you should know, he was chosen by the Divine Prayers Small Tree Spirit Furnace. So..."

"A 4th Rank Spirit Furnace?" Ah Jiu’s voice trembled slightly.

For a moment, he was at a loss for words.

A 4th Rank Spirit Furnace? There exists a 4th Rank Spirit Furnace in the hands of a young man who is not yet twenty?

You must know, among all the 6 Great Sacred Temples, those who have a 4th Rank Spirit Furnace can be counted on two hands. What does having a 4th Rank Spirit Furnace mean? He knows this better than anyone. It’s more important than any genius! Although it was the amplification of the Divine Prayers Small Tree Spirit Furnace that made one achieve the fourth rank, reaching the third rank before the age of twenty is incredibly, incredibly outrageous!

Long Dangdang added, "The Divine Prayers Small Tree Spirit Furnace chose my younger brother, probably because of his Elemental Vortex Spirit Furnace. The Elemental Vortex Spirit Furnace is my brother’s core spirit furnace."

"Hold on, let me take this in," Ah Jiu raised his hand, stopping him from continuing.

He knew of the Small Tree Spirit Furnace choosing someone, but he didn’t know specifically who it was. The Spirit Furnace Academy had kept this highly confidential, only known to the Sacred Legate. Even though Ah Jiu was a high-ranking member of the demon hunting team, he was not a Sacred Legate. Therefore, he was not entirely clear about it. Only now did he learn that the chosen one of the Divine Prayers Small Tree Spirit Furnace was Long Kongkong, a knight who seemed unnoticeable in Demon Hunter Team 19115897.

What shocked Ah Jiu more was that the Divine Prayers Small Tree Spirit Furnace had chosen Long Kongkong for another spirit furnace. What did that mean? Of course, he knew about the Elemental Vortex Spirit Furnace. How has it suddenly become so powerful? There must be a mystery in this; the choice of Divine Prayers Small Tree Spirit Furnace had already explained many problems.

All along, the Demon Hunters Headquarters had believed that the demon hunting team led by Zisang Liuying was the new generation most likely to inherit their mantle and become a Title Class demon hunting team. And Zisang Liuying’s team did not disappoint, having already reached the heights of a Commander Class demon hunting team.

However, Demon Hunter Team 19115897 also seems extraordinary! There’s no need to mention Ling Menglu. Now there’s Long Dangdang in front of him and his younger brother chosen by the Divine Prayers Small Tree Spirit Furnace. Plus, the four 7th Rank individuals they had seen earlier, in terms of overall strength, they seemed not inferior to Zisang Liuying’s team. After all, Zisang Liuying has just recently promoted to the 7th Rank.

After pondering for quite a while, Ah Jiu finally said, "Are you saying that, together with your brother’s spirit furnace, your spirit furnaces can devour a lot of energy, and convert it for you two to absorb. Besides supplementing your spiritual power, does absorbing this energy have any other benefits?"

During Ah Jiu’s pondering, Long Dangdang was also thinking rapidly. Upon hearing Ah Jiu’s question, he replied, "It can also enhance our cultivation level to some extent, but there would be some waste."

Ah Jiu’s body shuddered slightly. That meant the energy lost in the Devil Realm previously was absorbed by them and used to increase their own power. Four people had even broken through to the 7th Rank. Moreover, he realized something else. Long Dangdang hasn’t promoted to 7th Rank, he is still at Peak 6th Rank. But is it because he has the Clear Moon Vast Ocean Spirit Furnace? Does it mean they are using the power of Long Kongkong to help Long Dangdang repair his Clear Moon Vast Ocean Spirit Furnace?

He didn’t know much about these ancient spirit furnaces, but he knew very well what it meant once these spirit furnaces, which were wisdom spirit furnaces a long time ago, were fully repaired.

Ah Jiu looked at Long Dangdang with meaningful eyes, "The Devil Realm suffered significant damage this time. Normally, as a small plane controlled by our mighty powerhouse ancestors, who set up the Devil Realm, it could self-sustain and recover. However, your actions this time led to massive consumption and even destabilization. The Temple Headquarters’ decision is to forbid you from entering the Devil Realm. This is under the premise that you didn’t intentionally destroy the Devil Realm. Now, I can help you pass the judgment that you had no malicious intent, but entering the Devil Realm again will be difficult for you."

"Ah?" For Long Dangdang, this was absolutely bad news. He had just thought that he might be able to repair the Clear Moon Vast Ocean Spirit Furnace if he entered the Devil Realm several more times, but now his dream seemed to be crushed.

Ah Jiu waved his hand and said, "Don’t panic yet, your situation is special, especially your repairing of the Clear Moon Vast Ocean Spirit Furnace. I will apply to the Sacred Legate and explain your situation. You just wait for the news. However, for now, it’s impossible for you to enter the Devil Realm. It takes time for the Devil Realm to heal itself. Your consumption this time, won’t recover without a year of restoration."

"Yes, thank you, deputy director," Long Dangdang agreed reluctantly. He didn’t realize how vulnerable the Devil Realm could be after it had been drained of energy. It seemed that the Wraith Kingdom was the endless side, but the bigger issue there was the life-threatening danger.

Ah Jiu patted Long Dangdang’s shoulder, "By the way, there’s something I need to tell you, you should be prepared."

"Ah?" Long Dangdang looked at Ah Jiu in surprise.

Ah Jiu said somberly, "Your parents have gone missing."
