Chapter 652: Stellar Destiny Stone
Chapter 652: Stellar Destiny Stone
Upon discovering a region where a marvel was about to emerge, Chen Yue immediately sent a message through her avatar to her familiar companions, Chen Yao, Qin Mengjun, and others. In the Great Xuan World, most of those who had initially befriended Chen Mu had now reached the Fourth Heaven.
In a vast expanse of the universe, it was challenging for a true god of the Fourth Heaven to emerge, but in a world protected by a Divine Lord Tyrant, it became significantly easier. After all, the presence of a Divine Lord could provide clear guidance for the path up to the Seventh Heaven, and practitioners of any lineage could find their heritage.
"Companion Twin Stars? A marvel?"
In the star canopy, a figure paused in its exploration and turned towards Chen Yue's location upon receiving her message. A faint glimmer flashed in their eyes, and they immediately changed course, heading in Chen Yue's direction.
Chen Yue's message reached not only one person but several, though only Chen Yao and Qin Mengjun were relatively close to her position. Other Divine Realm beings who had risen to prominence in the Great Xuan World, such as the Flower Sisters, were located farther away.
"Another marvel found? Auntie's luck has always been excellent."
In another part of the star canopy, a dazzling white light tore through the void, revealing a figure of breathtaking beauty. Her features vaguely resembled Chen Mu's, and she was none other than Chen Mu's only daughter, Chen Yao. Her eyes sparkled as she blinked and smiled.
During their time in the Boundless Star River, Chen Yue's luck had indeed been exceptional, as she had discovered numerous marvels and resources. In contrast, Chen Yao, the one with the highest cultivation and strength among them, having reached the Fifth Heaven Peak, had repeatedly come up empty-handed. She had even clashed with several Divine Realm beings exploring this star canopy.
The Boundless Star River was indeed vast, especially for beings below the Divine Lord realm.
Chen Yao and Chen Yue had spent several epochs exploring just one region of the star river. However, this also meant that they had encountered and clashed with numerous Divine Realm beings and factions, earning them some recognition in this area.
Swish!
Upon receiving Chen Yue's message, Chen Yao immediately set out in her direction without hesitation.
...
In the star river, the companion twin stars continued to intertwine and rotate. However, their spinning gradually accelerated, and intense flames erupted, scorching the marvel at the center of the twin stars.
The number of Divine Realm beings in the vicinity had increased significantly since Chen Yue's arrival. Even a rough scan revealed at least several dozen auras, and these were only the ones who couldn't conceal their life force.
In a secluded corner.
"The formation of this marvel is taking longer than expected, attracting many people. This might become troublesome."
Qin Mengjun, dressed in plain white, hid in the void, observing the marvel being nurtured by the companion twin stars. "Gu Chen, Hao Ming, Lan Yi... Quite a few true gods of the Fifth Heaven have arrived," she whispered.
After exploring this region for several epochs, Qin Mengjun and her companions had become familiar with most of the Fourth Heaven and above Divine Realm beings in the area, and they had even crossed paths and clashed with some of them.
Chen Yue's eyes grew serious as she said, "This marvel has been forming for so long that its value is likely extraordinary. However, as long as no Sixth Heaven beings show up, we still have a chance to seize it."
Chen Yao, standing nearby, paused briefly before replying, "Once we obtain it, it will be ours. If necessary, we can use the 'Inter-Realm Transmission Talisman' that Father gave us to escape."
"Indeed, once we have it, no one can take it from us. We can use that talisman as a last resort."
Chen Yue's eyes shimmered with determination.
The Inter-Realm Transmission Talisman was a special marvel Chen Mu had crafted for them. When activated within the Boundless Star River, it would instantly transport them back to the Great Xuan World, regardless of their location.
Chen Yue and Chen Yao discussed how to obtain the marvel and make their escape, while Qin Mengjun, standing beside them, couldn't help but feel a twinge of exasperation. The talisman Chen Mu had given them was meant for emergencies, a life-saving tool. Yet, Chen Yue and Chen Yao were now considering using it to secure the marvel.
However, as Chen Yue pointed out, if the marvel's value exceeded that of the talisman, it might be worth the risk. The talisman was a life-saving item crafted by Chen Mu, and only marvels with dual mystic fusion characteristics could surpass its value. For now, they could only wait and see what marvel the companion twin stars would ultimately birth.
Just as the group was speculating about the marvel's nature, something unexpected happened.
Suddenly, the marvel at the center of the companion twin stars, enduring the scorching flames and constantly emitting light, abruptly paused in its flickering and trembled slightly.
With a slight tremor, an intensely terrifying and fiery glow erupted, as if the accumulated glow from the long years had converged and suddenly burst forth.
Boom!!!
The glow burst forth, causing the nearby twin companion stars to tremble and be momentarily affected!
Immediately, the void shattered and exploded, layer upon layer of broken void collapsing, and it continued to crumble for six layers. It then spread wildly in all directions, quickly covering millions of miles and sweeping across the eight wastelands.
"Not good!"
"Retreat quickly!"
"Run!"
The various Divine Realm beings gathered here were eyeing each other with hostility. As soon as the unexpected happened, someone tried to make a bold move to seize the strange object that was about to take shape. However, the moment the object formed, a terrifying power shook the void, reaching the level of the Sixth Heaven. Even the Seventh Layer of the void seemed to tremble slightly!
This power was almost at the limit of the Sixth Heaven!
Such a vast burst of fiery light naturally startled the numerous Divine Realm beings, and without any hesitation, the hundreds of auras gathered here, whether they were True Gods of the Fourth Heaven or the Fifth Heaven, all swiftly retreated. No one dared to resist the overwhelming fiery light that swept towards them!
Rumble!!!
The fiery light swept across hundreds of millions of miles of void.
Only when it reached the far corners of the universe did its power gradually weaken.
After being bathed in this fiery light, the once chaotic void became eerily calm, and all the auras of the Divine Realm beings were swept away, leaving no trace near the twin companion stars.
At this moment,
The two companion stars, spanning over a million miles, showed signs of crisscrossing cracks after enduring the impact. Although they hadn't directly collapsed, they were on the verge of complete disintegration.
However, compared to the companion stars, the most eye-catching object was the strange, floating in the center—a dark blue glowing orb. It was minuscule in size, a mere speck compared to the two stars, but the radiance it emitted was almost comparable to that of the twin stars.
"Dual Pulse Stellar Destiny Stone?!"
At that moment, a surprised cry echoed through the quiet starry sky.
Suddenly, an aura surged, and a streak of pitch-black arc light tore through the void at incredible speed. In an instant, it traveled from afar, passing by the companion stars, and a giant hand made of black light reached out to grasp the dark blue orb floating in the starry sky.
Stellar Destiny Stone!
This was a special and rare artifact born in the Boundless Star River. Even the most ordinary Stellar Destiny Stones were highly valuable, as they were tempered by the stars of the Boundless Star River, often containing thick and profound Mystic Power. These stones were not only useful for comprehending the Mystic Arts but also served as primary materials for forging Divine Armaments.
The Stellar Destiny Stone that appeared before them was even rarer, a 'Dual Pulse Stellar Destiny Stone' that occurred once in a million, containing two different types of Mystic Power in perfect harmony.
It could be said that
This was one of the main materials for forging Superior Divine Armaments!
Not only them, but even Sixth Heaven Divine Realm beings would fight tooth and nail for it, and even Divine Lords would personally intervene. This was a resource that even Divine Lords would covet!
If one could obtain it and return to their own void domain, presenting it to a Divine Lord, the rewards would be immeasurable. They might even receive personal guidance from the Divine Lord, ensuring a smooth path to the Sixth Heaven!
"Hehe, no need to rush."
Just as the black light was about to grasp the Stellar Destiny Stone, a faint laughter echoed in the quiet starry sky, and suddenly, the void changed.
The black hand, which had been very close to the Stellar Destiny Stone, suddenly had its distance rapidly increased, as if the void was forcibly stretched.
"Gu Chen!"
The owner of the black hand, upon seeing this, roared in anger. However, he didn't give up and unleashed some unknown power, causing his aura to surge. The black hand accelerated again, forcefully reaching out to grasp the stone despite the expanding void.
However, with this delay, he also lost the initiative.
He had used a trump card to withstand the previous burst of light, not retreating far enough, as if betting on luck, which allowed him to make the first move. Even so, he was still blocked by the True God Gu Chen of the Void Lineage. Although it was only a brief hindrance, it was enough for other Divine Realm beings from various directions to take action one after another.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!! In an instant, countless overwhelming auras surged from all directions. First, more than ten different types of divine lights, accompanied by the power of the Fifth Heaven, struck this area. Then, hundreds of Fourth Heaven powers and techniques arrived, sweeping through the area with grandeur. Most of them had the mindset that if they couldn't obtain it, they wouldn't let others get it easily.
The two companion stars were already on the verge of collapse, and now, under the impact of the techniques and powers of over a hundred Fourth Heaven True Gods and more than ten Fifth Heaven True Gods, they finally reached a critical point. After a brief pause, they exploded with a loud bang.
The explosion of the companion stars was no small matter; it created a vast aftermath.
This burst of light was not as terrifying as when the Star Fate Stone was formed, but it still reached the power of the Fifth Heaven, crushing layer after layer of void and sweeping in all directions.
However, this power was not enough to completely stop the numerous Divine Realm beings. Those who couldn't make it in time and could only attack from a distance now descended, braving the light.
The void shattered.
This place completely turned into a battlefield for Divine Realm battles, with intense clashes erupting almost everywhere.
In the midst of this chaotic battle, just as someone was about to seize the Star Fate Stone, they were immediately blocked by others. After several such exchanges, a seemingly insignificant white light suddenly appeared.
Whoosh!
Chen Yao's figure swiftly approached the Star Fate Stone, suppressing her aura until she was close enough to unleash it. She swung her sword forward, and the sword light burst forth with the power of the Fifth Heaven's peak, tearing open a gap in the area where several Fifth Heaven True Gods were struggling against each other. Chen Yao's entire body crashed into the gap.
"Chen Yao!"
"Don't even think about it!"
The nearby Fifth Heaven True Gods who were engaged in fierce battles were all familiar with Chen Yao. They were active in this area, and over several epochs, they had clashed with her to varying degrees.
They didn't know Chen Yao's origins, but they were all aware that she came from a powerful faction.
In the vast and boundless Boundless Star River, the exploring Divine Realm beings were a mixed bunch. Moreover, at the Divine Realm level, the concept of 'solitary cultivators' almost didn't exist. At the very least, they were part of a major faction in their respective void domains. So, even though Chen Yao's background was mysterious, no one was overly concerned about it.
Buzz!
In an instant, the Fifth Heaven True Gods who were struggling against each other turned their attention towards Chen Yao, dismantling their techniques and suppressing her with all their might, intending to stop her from getting closer to the Star Fate Stone.
However, facing the combined attack of the group, Chen Yao neither dodged nor resisted; she didn't even try to fight back. Her eyes remained calm, and in an instant, her entire body was engulfed by several powers of the Fifth Heaven, exploding into countless specks of light.
"Hmm?"
Although they had worked together to shatter Chen Yao's 'divine body,' the surrounding Fifth Heaven Divine Realm beings showed no signs of joy. Instead, they were all startled, having already sensed something amiss.
As expected, in the next moment, the specks of light that Chen Yao's divine body had turned into after shattering disappeared like illusions. At the same time, Chen Yao's figure quietly appeared on one side of the Star Fate Stone, extending her hand to directly grasp the nearly one-foot-long Star Fate Stone.
Excellent!
With the Star Fate Stone in hand, a hint of excitement flashed in Chen Yao's eyes. She naturally understood the value of this dual-pulse Star Fate Stone, and if she could bring it back, even Chen Mu would likely praise her.
Seeing the surrounding Fifth Heaven Divine Realm beings glaring at her with anger, and with unfriendly gazes from all around, Chen Yao found herself surrounded. Even the nearby void seemed frozen by a force, as if someone had cast a sealing technique to trap her here.
However, Chen Yao merely curved her lips into a slight smile. With a thought, a transparent jade-colored talisman hidden within her body suddenly emitted a strand of light, and an invisible void energy instantly enveloped her.
Whoosh.
Chen Yao vanished into thin air from the encirclement of the numerous Divine Realm beings.
