Otherworldly-Cultivator

Chapter 768 768: Chen Li - Hermit Long

Sometime later, Chen Li opened his eyes, and his gray eyes had turned golden. However, Emperor Long had disappeared from his throne, and many memories of his past as emperor surfaced in his mind. "Finally, I have regained all the memories from my past life."

"Haha." Hermit Long laughed at that. "Unfortunately, this is just the beginning, and the other reincarnations of Ancient Long Wang are waiting for you to meet them. Since you have obtained all of Emperor Long's memories, you should be ready to receive all of my memories, right?"

"Yes." Chen Li then asked Hermit Long. "Which reincarnation of Ancient Long Wang was before you? Was the one before you the Devil Long Wang?"

"No." Hermit Long shook his head in response. "The Devil Long Wang was three reincarnations before me, and you had to meet the other two before you could meet him. All these years, you were so afraid of my memories and nature, but I was less frightening compared to him because he was the worst of the worst. His memories and nature might turn you truly evil, but the final result still depends on yourself."

"What happened to you after you inherited the Devil Long Wang's memories?"

"Hahaha." Hermit Long laughed again. "You don't need to be this curious, right? After you inherited my memories, you'll know about my past life, so you can see for yourself what happened to me after I inherited the memories of Devil Long Wang in the past."

Chen Li released a soft sigh before nodding to Hermit Long. "Alright, let's do it; give me all your memories."

"Even though my evil nature isn't as terrifying as Devil Long Wang's, my nature will definitely still influence you, so you have to be prepared for your changes." Chen Li closed his eyes again as Hermit Long touched his head. "Kid, the reincarnation of Ancient Long Wang is like a curse, so I hope you won't end up like us. If you end up like us, this curse will never end, and we will meet the reincarnations after you. The only way to stop this curse is to become whole again, and you have the greatest chance of that, so I hope you will succeed."

Chen Li nodded slightly. "I also don't want to end up like all of you, so I will try my best to become whole again. At that time, I will transform into the true Long Wang, the one and only five-clawed golden dragon in this universe."

"Hahaha!" Hermit Long laughed out loud after hearing that. "That's the spirit! If you fail to do so, I will beat you up the next time we meet! Get ready; I will give you all my memories now."

"Do it."

In that instant, some memories of Hermit Long began to surface in Chen Li's mind. A dark, terrifying aura began to envelop her body.

Since Chen Li's eyes were closed, no one could see the change in his eyes. His eyes were no longer gray or gold but bloody red, and he felt negative emotions filling his mind and soul. He hurriedly suppressed those negative emotions, as he had already experienced them once when he almost fell under Hermit Long's control in the past.

If Xiao Shijian had not appeared in their memory space at that time, Chen Li would have fallen into his control, and Hermit Long would have taken over his body. (Chapter 194.)

"Hmm?" Feng Xian'er and Lin Qingzhu were shocked when the dark aura enveloped Chen Li's body, and they realized that it was due to Hermit Long's influence.

"Xian'er, how could this happen?" Lin Qingzhu asked frantically. "Li'er hasn't inherited all of Emperor Long's memories, has he? Why has he already met Hermind Long?"

"You're wrong, Mom. My husband should have inherited all of Emperor Long's memories by now, and the golden aura that enveloped his body before is proof of that." Feng Xian'er leaned forward and took a close look at Chen Li. "If my guess is correct, he intends to inherit Hermit Long's memories as well."

"Why—"

"You're right, Xian'er," Xiao Shijian spoke as she appeared before them. "Chen Li is indeed in the process of receiving Hermit Long's memories, but you two don't need to worry too much about that. He will experience changes after this, but the changes won't be too drastic because he has already obtained all of Emperor Long's memories."

"Are you sure Li'er won't become evil after this, Sister Shijian?" Lin Qingzhu asked.

"Trust me, Chen Li will not change too much." Even though Xiao Shijian said that, Lin Qingzhu still couldn't calm down, and she hoped that the process would be completed soon.

Feng Xian'er turned to look at Xiao Shijian and asked her a question. "Which reincarnation of Ancient Long Wang was before Hermit Long?"

"Haha." Xiao Shijian laughed softly. "The one before Hermit Long was the most carefree and mischievous of all the reincarnations of Ancient Long Wang. He was the only one who lived without thinking about any burdens, and he lived almost as long as the past Emperor Long."

Feng Xian'er furrowed her brows, and she remembered for sure that Emperor Long had never obtained the memories of that reincarnation of Ancient Long Wang. "Wouldn't that be troublesome, Shijian? If my husband inherits that kind of character, I'm afraid he won't focus on his cultivation, and it will slow down significantly. If that happens, we'll have to wait a very long time before we can return to the Five Divine Heavens and take revenge on them."

"You're wrong about that," Xiao Shijian denied with a shake of his head. "Although he was always carefree and mischievous, he was always serious about his cultivation. In fact, his cultivation was much faster than Emperor Long's, but he made a fatal mistake that led to his death."

"What caused his death, Sister Shijian? Did someone kill him like Sophia killed Long Wang and Xian'er? Or was there another reason that caused him to die?" Lin Qingzhu curiously asked.
