Chapter 169: Outer Starry Sky, Seizing the Power of the Ziwei Star
Yao Wuqing stood up, holding the blood-red Demon Blade in his hand, and said softly, "Back then, when the Traitor attacked, my father knew he was no match and immediately used a secret technique of our clan to seal the Demon Blade within me. All these years, the Demon Blade has long since merged with my Soul. It was also because of the protection of the Demon Blade that I was able to evade the Traitor's search. However, it is precisely due to the fusion of the Demon Blade with my Soul that I forgot the heritage of my clan. Fortunately, I have recently awakened. That despicable Traitor not only took my clan's possessions but also slaughtered my people!"
"Because as long as your people live, your clan's possessions will always be a threat within them, especially since you are from the royal family," Yang Chen pointed out.
"I understand now."
"Your Eight Clans..."
"It is Nine Clans," Yao Wuqing corrected.
"One of those clans merged into chaos long ago, didn't it? After the great battle back then, it was thanks to that clan's sacrifice—every member using their flesh and blood and their clan's Sacred Artifact—that allowed the East and West to be separated. So from that time on, Nine Clans became Eight Clans. Up until a thousand years ago, when the Demon God Barrier broke, that Sacred Artifact finally escaped. They were all heroes!" Yang Chen said respectfully.
"I didn't expect Your Majesty to remember this part of history," Yao Wuqing expressed his gratitude.
"Alas, it is precisely because of this that your Nine Clans were annihilated while the remaining Eight Clans suffered greatly and retreated from the world. Unfortunately, none of the remaining Eight Clans could escape destruction. What I don't understand is why your demon clan was destroyed at least hundreds of years ago, yet you are only in your twenties?"
"Because after merging with the Demon Blade, all my vitality was sealed until twenty years ago when my Soul fully integrated; only then did the Demon Blade release my Soul, allowing my body to regain vitality," Yao Wuqing explained.
"The Demon Blade is indeed a Heaven and Earth Sacred Object," Yang Chen sighed. "Alright, let's set off."
"Yes, Your Majesty," everyone responded.
Half a day later, in the Wilderness Depths, a group of twenty-one people stopped at the foot of a mountain range.
"Your Majesty, it's right here," Yao Tianshang said.
"This place? Where can we enter?" Yao Tongtian asked in confusion.
"The entire mountain range is filled with caves," Yang Chen replied.
"No way," Yao Tongtian said in disbelief as he looked at Yao Tianshang.
"I don't know either. When I first came here, there was a cave halfway up the mountain. I went inside and after wandering for a while, I only found the Yandang Blade," Yao Tianshang said.
"There's no cave at the waist of this mountain. Lao Shang, are you mistaken?" Yao Tongtian said.
"It must be here," Yao Tianshang replied confidently.
"Alright, Tian Shang, Sky Tower, take a close look and see what is different about this great mountain," Yang Chen said.
"Your Majesty, this mountain range contains a faint power of the stars! If I weren't at the peak of the Saint of Combat, I wouldn't be able to sense it," Yao Tongtian exclaimed in surprise.
"Indeed, I never noticed before that this mountain range hides such a great secret," Yao Tianshang said. Yang Chen looked up at the sky, paused for a moment, and said, "So this mountain range corresponds to the fated stars above."
"Let's go to the mountaintop!" Yang Chen commanded.
"Your Majesty, I've been to the mountaintop before, and there was nothing there," Yao Tianshang said.
"That was you; your fate does not lie here, so naturally, you cannot trigger its wonders," Yang Chen replied. After saying this, he leaped up to the mountaintop. When they reached the waist of the mountain, the group of twenty-one seemed to break through a thin membrane and then ascended to the summit.
"This... this is indeed different from when I came last time," Yao Tongtian said in astonishment. The twenty-one stood in an area spanning tens of millions of square meters, surrounded by dimness; the sky was pitch black, with countless stars flickering on the ground as if they were projections of the stars above.
"Your Majesty, where is this?" Yao Tongtian asked.
"Look at what’s on the ground; what does it resemble?" Yang Chen smiled.
"On the ground?" Yao Tongtian looked down and said, "It looks a bit like the stars in the sky!"
"Your Majesty, I feel something calling me," Yao Wuqing said.
"Go ahead; inherit your demon clan's fated star - the Demon Star," Yang Chen smiled.
"Thank you, Your Majesty," Yao Wuqing replied respectfully.
"Among you, whoever feels the call can go and inherit the power of your fated star," Yang Chen said.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Immediately, three out of the twenty-one left.
"Your Majesty, what is a fated star?" Yao Tongtian asked.
"A fated star is your life star. There are 1,089,732,564 stars in the sky; therefore, there are 1,089,732,564 people on earth who possess a fated star. Sky Tower King, go inherit your Sky Tower star's Starry Will," Yang Chen instructed.
"Yes, Your Majesty," Yao Tongtian said respectfully.
"The rest of you, protect the law for me!" Yang Chen said as he walked to the center, standing on a purple star.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Yang Chen took out the Celestial Ranking and placed it on the ground on the Purple Star. Then he pulled out the Shadow Kill Imperial Seal and placed it on the Celestial Ranking, perfectly imprinting it onto the Purple Star.
"Boom!" A muffled thunder suddenly echoed in this vast space, and the Purple Star beneath the Celestial Ranking trembled violently but was firmly suppressed by the Shadow Kill Imperial Seal.
"I receive Destiny and bestow the heavenly decree; I shall be the Son of Heaven! Why do you resist? Shadow Kill Imperial Seal, suppress them for me!" Yang Chen shouted, and the Shadow Kill Imperial Seal flashed with a hint of blood color, immediately stabilizing the trembling Purple Star.
"Bestow the heavenly decree, strategize the celestial ranking. Under heaven, there is no land that is not imperial soil; along the shores of all lands, there are no subjects that are not royal! Accept Starry Will to refine oneself, accept!" Yang Chen commanded. Although suppressed by the Shadow Kill Imperial Seal, the Purple Star still struggled desperately while waves of purple light were drawn from it into the Celestial Ranking.
"Such tyranny, forcibly drawing power from the stars, especially from the most domineering and noble Purple Tenuity Star!" Yao Tianshang exclaimed. The Purple Tenuity Star grew dimmer while the purple within the Celestial Ranking became increasingly vibrant. As the Purple Tenuity Star trembled wildly, the entire space emitted urgent sounds.
"Thud thud thud!"
"The Purple Emperor Qi within has been extracted by me to 9/10. The way of heaven is constant; I grant you A Ray of Hope," Yang Chen said with a smile. He then retracted the Celestial Ranking and Shadow Kill Imperial Seal. Unexpectedly, the Purple Tenuity Star immediately transformed into a beam of purple light and vanished before Yang Chen's eyes.
"This is not a projection of a star; this is an outer celestial sky!" Yang Chen roared inwardly but soon calmed down and said, "Everything shall be at peace." He then sat cross-legged to refine the Purple Emperor Qi within the Celestial Ranking while stimulating his Demon God Strategy.
In Lingxiao City, Lingxiao Palace, "The Purple Tenuity Star has disappeared?" Yi Tianzheng said in surprise. He then frantically calculated with his fingers, trying to deduce something: "In today's world, there are no more than three who can draw from the Purple Tenuity Star's Starry Will. And only His Majesty or some mysterious Dragon Emperor could make the Purple Tenuity Star disappear. But if the Purple Tenuity Star is not in the celestial sky, where could it go?"
