784 -697: Ling Weiyang Arrives
Rogue Heart Sword Hero had not expected to deceive his way through so easily.
Was the Purple Gold Kirin really that gullible?
If Ling Weiyang was equally gullible, there would have been far fewer troubles.
However, before Rogue Heart Sword Hero could reflect for long, the massive head of the Purple Gold Kirin began to move, and soon its vast maw opened wide.
Instantly, a tremendous suction force came forth, pulling Rogue Heart Sword Hero right into the mouth of the Purple Gold Kirin.
In that moment, the only thought in Rogue Heart Sword Hero’s mind was whether he had failed to notice something crucial.
Was the Purple Gold Kirin about to devour him now?
But Rogue Heart Sword Hero soon realized he had been overly worried, for within the Purple Gold Kirin’s mouth lay a small spatial realm, completely shrouded in darkness.
Yet as Rogue Heart Sword Hero entered, little bits of starlight began to emerge around him.
Eventually, the space where Rogue Heart Sword Hero found himself was bathed in numerous starlights, floating like a sea of stars, with flickering lights, large and small, surrounding him in every direction, creating an incredibly dreamy and beautiful sight.
“Senior, what is this place?” Not knowing, he chose to ask—a fine tradition Rogue Heart Sword Hero was utilizing well.
“This is the world within me, containing all the stars I have refined.
The reason the Kirin Clan of the Purple Gold Kirins can stand as the Supreme of the Kirin race is not only because of the Purple Gold Kirin’s strong aptitudes but also because we can wield the Power of the Stars.
Ordinary people always think the power of the sun and the moon is formidable, but in truth, the strength of the stars is the most potent.
The sun and the moon are merely parts of the stars.
And you, your current Power of the Stars is not complete.
You’ve only initiated a basic cleansing of the power and are capable of using a small fraction.
There are two ways the Purple Gold Kirin Clan truly utilizes the Power of the Stars.
One is to incite the fall of myriad stars, wreaking devastation with terrifying might.
The other is to bolster oneself with the Power of the Stars, increasing one’s own strength a hundred or even a thousandfold.
What you currently possess is the latter method.
However, since you have not refined any star, even if you draw upon the Power of the Stars, you will not be able to significantly enhance your power!”
After he finished speaking, Rogue Heart Sword Hero suddenly saw a point of light in the distance rapidly expand, and soon, a massive planet came hurtling toward him.
Reaching the Nine Patterns Supreme level implied the ability to wield planets as weapons of Combat Power.
Therefore, Rogue Heart Sword Hero was not terribly surprised, but when the planet suddenly vanished and a fist-sized yellow clod of earth floated before him, he had not yet grasped what had happened.
It was not until he heard the voice of the Purple Gold Kirin that he understood.
“Only by thoroughly refining the stars can you possess the true Power of the Stars.
What lies before you is a miniature star. novelbuddy.cσ๓
Next, I will teach you the method of Refinement, and then your task is to refine all the stars here for your own use.
After that, there will hardly be anyone who could stop you, or rather, there will be none!”
Before Rogue Heart Sword Hero could recover from his shock, he felt a sharp pain in his brain, followed by countless pieces of information flooding into his mind.
Once he had processed all the information, he was utterly astonished.
He could hardly believe that such a method of cultivation existed in this world—that the creator was either a madman or a genius of unmatched talent.
Moreover, anyone else might consider this cultivation method as rubbish and discard it.
The refinement method taught by the Purple Gold Kirin to Rogue Heart Sword Hero was a unique technique dedicated to refining stars, similar to refining a Magic Treasure, eventually allowing for full control as if it were an ordinary artifact.
In principle, the ability to refine stars for personal use is an exceptionally powerful technique, but when the number of stars to be refined is counted in the thousands, the method becomes useless.
The lowest level use of the Power of the Stars can enhance one’s strength twice over without side effects in a short time but requires the refinement of three thousand stars.
Nine thousand for double the might, fifteen thousand for triple.
In other words, refining just a few hundred stars would have little to no effect on one’s strength.
Moreover, refining stars is not a simple matter—it means going against the natural order for Cultivators, a defiance even more against the grain.
However, the one thing that provided a bit of solace to Rogue Heart Sword Hero was that he did not need to start refining from scratch.
All he had to do was to make all the myriad stars already refined by the Purple Gold Kirin his own—a relatively simple task.
Nearly a Chinese Hour was required to refine a single star, and as his refinement technique became more adept, this time would further decrease.
Nonetheless, full refinement would still demand an exceedingly long period.
But Rogue Heart Sword Hero accepted the task, and after calming his mind, he commenced the grand endeavor of star refinement.
At any time, an increase in power was undoubtedly beneficial.
Additionally, the more stars he refined for himself, the fewer would remain when Ling Weiyang eventually discovered this place, and the stronger his own position, the greater his chances of escape.
Rogue Heart Sword Hero was not the kind of person to lose his rationality easily.
Although he had temporarily fooled the Purple Gold Kirin and seized the chance to refine stars, he was acutely aware that Ling Weiyang would sooner or later come here.
When the true Purple Gold Kirin appeared, his lies would naturally unravel.
He was here because he had taken the Heavenly Patrol Order from someone of the Myriad Demons Country and followed its guide.
When Ling Weiyang discovered that Lord Netherworld and others had escaped, he would inevitably return here in search of Hei Kui.
Should their paths differ negligiblely, Ling Weiyang would assuredly encounter the Purple Gold Kirin too.
And so, Rogue Heart Sword Hero’s situation was perilous indeed, with not much time at his disposal.
How much strength he could amass in this limited time was tantamount to how much he could tip the scales in his favor.
Time flew by, and in a miraculous three days, Rogue Heart Sword Hero had refined a total of five hundred thousand stars.
Before this, such a number would have seemed inconceivable to him.
He had reached a point where he could refine a star in nearly a single breath, which was enough to prove that Rogue Heart Sword Hero’s talent was indeed that of a genius among geniuses.
However, not being from the Kirin Clan of the Purple Gold Kirin, after refining five hundred thousand stars, he suddenly found his body in a state of saturation.
In this condition, he was no longer able to refine even one more star.
Of course, this was not to say that Rogue Heart Sword Hero’s talent was limited to this; given some time to assimilate the Power of the Stars he had gained over those three days, he could certainly refine even more stars.
But Rogue Heart Sword Hero knew that time was no longer on his side.
Yet, he did not give up just like that; if he could not refine them himself, he would not let Ling Weiyang have them for free.
Another day and night passed, and finally, Ling Weiyang arrived.
The Formation that Jue Luan and Pangu had jointly set up had only trapped Ling Weiyang and his group for a little more than three Chinese Hours.
After breaking free, the group immediately set out in pursuit, but, without the Heavenly Patrol Order on them, they could only choose to give up reluctantly after chasing for two more days.
However, at this point, Ling Weiyang noticed that in addition to the four Heavenly Patrol Orders gathered together, there was another one separate from the rest.
Knowing that Hei Kui was likely to be drawn by the Blood Sea as per the plan, Ling Weiyang concluded that this Heavenly Patrol Order definitely belonged to Hei Kui.
Just like Rogue Heart Sword Hero had thought, two days later, Ling Weiyang and his group returned to the initial place and directly plunged into the Blood Sea.
The fact that Yue Huangquan and the others had not only run away but had also taken the Demon Spirit Butcher meant that they could not let Hei Kui go; they could not return empty-handed.
And as for the Demon Spirit Butcher that had been so undeservingly taken by Yue Huangquan and the others, Ling Weiyang only had a cold sneer in his heart.
The Demon Spirit Butcher was a very special being.
Once he entered a berserk state, only Ke Mo could restrain him, and if he was subjected to any extremely strong stimulus that triggered a second berserk state, no one could control him then.
He would enter a state of total carnage, not recognizing anyone, and would only stop after he had destroyed all life within his sensory range.
Speaking of the Demon Spirit Butcher, Ling Weiyang’s feelings were actually quite complicated.
The Demon Spirit Butcher was not originally from the Demon Nation; he was brought back from the Fallen Tomb by someone from the Demon Nation during the first opening of the tomb.
Back then, the Demon Spirit Butcher was completely unconscious.
After many attempts, Ling Weiyang had finally awakened him, but his first action upon awakening was a killing spree.
At that time, only by joining forces could the experts of the Demon Nation barely subdue him.
It was then that Ling Weiyang discovered Ke Mo, the only person who could control the Demon Spirit Butcher.
To this day, Ling Weiyang still couldn’t figure out the true identity of the Demon Spirit Butcher, only guessing that he must be largely related to the Ancient war.
Following almost the same route as Rogue Heart Sword Hero had taken, Ling Weiyang descended following the guidance of the Heavenly Patrol Order until he saw the massive head of the Purple Gold Kirin.
Ling Weiyang was shocked at that moment, a shock that was beyond words, to the point where he didn’t know how to react.
And the first one to speak wasn’t Ling Weiyang, but Fen Yan.
“Boss, you, you, you’re actually dead?”
Everyone thought Fen Yan would say something else, but these words nearly choked them all.
Xi Zhao directly kicked him, expressing a thoughtful look, “This must definitely be the remains of a Purple Gold Kirin, but aren’t there supposed to be only one in each generation?
How come it’s here?” Just then, Ling Weiyang’s eyes suddenly shot out two dazzling beams of purple-gold light, and he began to tremble as he said, “No, no, this Purple Gold Kirin, it’s still alive, still alive!” Ling Weiyang’s shock was absolutely beyond everyone else’s, and the special connection between members of the Purple Gold Kirin clan allowed Ling Weiyang to quickly sense that this Purple Gold Kirin still had a breath of life.
At the same moment, the massive eyes of the Purple Gold Kirin suddenly opened, emitting two equally dazzling purple lights that enshrouded everyone.
Then, all of them heard an unbelievable voice in their minds, “Purple Gold Kirin?
This generation’s Purple Gold Kirin is still alive?” (To be continued.
