Chapter 454 - Terrifying Weapon Shard!
Chapter 454: Terrifying Weapon Shard!
The house-sized meteorite began to crumble and shed its stony exterior, revealing the incomparably resplendent Star Crystals!
The amount of stellar energy contained in this meteorite could only be described as terrifying. The entire meteorite was completely made up from congealed stellar energy. Although it was as big as a house, its mass was high to a scary extent. Its structure was incredibly compact, having been condensed to an extreme extent.
It wouldn’t be possible to find a second such stone in the world. This one had fallen from outer space countless years ago, embedding itself here.
At this moment, the already shocking rate of absorption increased yet again. Bei Feng’s snow white hair was tainted with a layer of red glow.
Inside the stellar acupoint, the entire space was trembling as though it could not bear the huge amounts of energy that flowed into the ball of lotus flowers.
“Pish!”
A light sound rang out, and a jade white hand suddenly extended from inside the red ball of lotus flowers. Following that, a young maiden dressed in a light green dress walked out. A scarlet lotus symbol in the shape of a flame could be seen on her dress.
As for her head, it took the shape of a lotus flower. This bizarre looking girl was a new stage 2 Star Goddess!
The Star Goddess raised her hand and pointed towards the outside world lightly, directly pressing her finger on the scarlet meteorite-crystal. With this point, all the energy immediately burst outwards. Originally, it was only flowing as if the floodgates to a dam was opened. But this finger of hers directly destroyed the dam, causing a near endless amount of stellar energy to pour outwards!
Little by little, the lotus on her head began to transform and take on human features. At the same time, the scarlet crystal’s color also began to dim and turn colorless.
“Sha-sha!”
A gentle sigh, like the sound of light rain on leaves rang out.
The Star Goddess stood in midair in the center of the stellar acupoint. In this place, it was the only divine goddess!
“Hong!”
The Star Goddess’s face kept flickering between human and lotus before it suddenly exploded into a puff of pink mist which dispersed and reformed again with greater speed. A world toppling beauty’s face now appeared on the Star Goddess’s head. A face veil with a lotus imprint covered her front, giving her a sense of mystery, and prompting countless imaginations of others.
The few drops of lava python Soul Blood suddenly began to grow restless and morphed into a blood colored flood dragon.
“Hm? Is it responding to the Star Goddess?”
Bei Feng felt the Soul Blood’s reaction and with a thought, the Soul Blood that he’d kept in his spatial ring appeared in his hand.
“Pa-da!”
With a light flick of his finger, the jade bottle shattered apart, and the lava python’s Soul Blood fused together into a mini flood dragon, appearing inside the stellar acupoint!
There were still some remaining remnants of the huge amount of stellar energy. But the Star Goddess had already reached a kind of limit, and could no longer absorb any more stellar energy. As soon as the little flood dragon entered the stellar acupoint, the large amounts of remnant energy flooded towards it!
The only 10 cm long flood dragon started to grow larger under the baptism of the stellar energy. Its transformation could be said to be akin to growing from nothing to something. Just by relying on the incomparably pure stellar energy, the little lava python managed to create a flood dragon body for itself!
When the stellar energy was exhausted, a two meter something long flood dragon was wrapped around the Star Goddess’s body, emanating the faint pressure that belonged only to dragons!
In the next instant, the fire attributed stellar acupoint disappeared and on his soul, a new dot of light appeared!
The three stellar acupoints with their respective Star Gods had all merged with his soul. They seemed to be linked to each other, but also countered each other at the same time. After the stellar acupoint was imprinted on his soul, the stellar acupoint shone brightly, causing Bei Feng’s soul to strengthen further!
“By rights, the Minor Dark Sky Breathing Technique should not have such a strong effect. Could the System have evaluated it wrongly?”
Bei Feng mumbled uncertainly. This breathing technique was so powerful that it could even affect the most mysterious thing – the soul. For such a powerful technique, how could it be ranked so low?
This set of breathing technique, even if it was ranked as Star grade or even Moon grade, it wouldn’t be an injustice!
What Bei Feng didn’t know was that when the System made the initial evaluation, it was based on the estimation that only a stage one Star God would be formed at most. That was because a stage three Star God was basically impossible to be formed on Earth.
Bei Feng withdrew his consciousness from the stellar acupoint. His body shook, and his aura began to rise. The side effects of using the Mixed Yuan Body had already passed.
“How many days has it been?”
Bei Feng’s aura had risen in an instant. Although the side effect of using the Mixed Yuan Body was said to disappear in 24 hours, that was if the body had enough food, and if there was sufficient Heaven Earth Lingqi.
Bei Feng had started to cultivate the Star Goddess directly after the large battle earlier, where would he have the time to consume high energy food? All his strength had been recovered over time. At this time, he instantly felt a crazy hunger grip his stomach.
“Ka-cha!”
Although his aura was retracted instantly, the force of it rising had also affected the meteorite beside him. At this time, the meteorite had turned into a grey white color. Numerous fine cracks had appeared on its surface. Following that, it abruptly burst apart, turning into a cloud of powder.
A 10 meter long tree root fell out from the cloud of dust. This section of root was completely dried, having lost its life force long ago. The Thousand Stars Vine had grown from it.
Bei Feng reached out and grabbed through the air, pulling the withered root to himself. Although it had already withered, this root was not light at all. This section of withered root was not greyish white, or crystal red. It was dark gold in color, and was as heavy as steel!
Although he didn’t what the root was good for, he still kept it into his spatial ring.
Apart from that, there was a silver white piece of blade as big as a palm. It was incomparably sharp, and just by looking at it, Bei Feng felt a stinging feeling in his eyes!
The System did not issue any identification messages when he held the weapon shard in his hand, just as the case with the Thousand Stars Vine root.
Bei Feng looked at the deep gashes on his palm with some shock. He thought that he had already shown plenty of respect to the sharpness of the weapon shard. But it turned out that he’d still vastly underestimated it. Although he’d wrapped a thick layer of Qi around his palms, he was still hurt by the sharpness of the shard.
“This is just a broken piece of a weapon, and nobody was wielding it at all. I really wonder how powerful the weapon was when it was complete!”
Bei Feng could not imagine what kind of weapon would have such a terrifying sharpness. Such a weapon must be capable of shocking the heavens with a single slash! Thinking in this direction, the owner of the weapon must be an immensely powerful character, far out of his reach. At this point, he felt that he still had an extremely long way to go.
The weapon shard was also kept into his spatial ring. When he looked at the fresh blood flowing on his hand, Bei Feng furrowed his brows lightly.
An incredibly sharp energy lingered on the wound, preventing it from closing. The area around the wound also felt as if it was being pricked by countless needles!
Bei Feng sent a wave of blood and Qi energy to his palm. But the moment his blood and Qi energy reached his palm, it was instantly torn apart by the sharp energy!
If Bei Feng’s blood and Qi was compared to an army, this sharp energy was a soldier with the latest modern weapon!
Although it was at a massive disadvantage in terms of quantity, it was still able to single handedly suppress Bei Feng’s blood and Qi, preventing the latter from doing anything to it!
“Peng!”
Bei Feng’s palm instantly burst open. His palm was unable to endure the clash between the two energies, and at this time, it looked extremely horrifying. His crystalline white bones could be seen under the gory mess!
If that was the extent of the injury, it would not be a big deal. He could directly seal his blood and Qi, preventing them from circulating to his palm, and the blood would stop by itself. But this wound seemed to contain a strange magical power, pulling his blood and Qi towards the wound.
“If I actually died to this stupid broken blade, that would be really funny…”
A dull thought ran through Bei Feng’s mind. In that moment, he didn’t know if he should laugh or cry.
His blood and Qi continued to flow towards the wound rapidly, and in just a short moment, over one percent of his blood was lost!
This was an absolutely shocking number, considering Bei Feng’s physique. And this was just the result of a few careless cuts caused by holding the blade. If it was a direct slash… Bei Feng felt a chill run down his spine just thinking about it. At that time, apart from directly cutting off the limb that was injured, there would probably be no other methods.
Bei Feng directly took out the Nine Stars Fruit without any hesitation. With a bit of strength, the stony skin was peeled off, revealing the fleshy crystalline fruit!
An intoxicating fragrance wafted into his nose, causing Bei Feng to gulp down a mouthful of saliva. In that moment, he was not in any state to slowly savor the fruit. He directly bit into the fruit and swallowed it in huge mouthfuls.
The fruit was meaty and juicy, like top grade Demonic Beast flesh. It was also exceptionally chewy, and contained a faint bitter aftertaste, similar to rainwater in bamboo shoots.
After swallowing just a few bites down his throat, Bei Feng instantly felt much better. His body felt light, and his body shone with a scarlet light. From the outside, one could see a large amount of energy flowing under Bei Feng’s skin!
Large amounts of pure blood Qi was released from the fruit constantly. Bei Feng only needed to revolve his inner dan slightly, and he could absorb the energy.
Countless waves of powerful energy gushed continuously towards the wound on Bei Feng’s hand, being sliced apart by the sharp energy again and again!
“I get it now, although my blood and Qi energy is bountiful in quantity, but compared to this sharp energy, it’s still lacking by quite a bit in quality. My strength lacks a will!”
After failing over and over again, Bei Feng finally understood why he kept failing. The Nine Stars Fruit did not only improve blood and Qi. It was also very useful for mental power and the soul! As the mind cleansing chill of the fruit’s energy washed over him, Bei Feng’s comprehension level also grew constantly, allowing him to enter a state of enlightenment!
The incomparably sharp energy contained a soul, or a type of will. This was a will to slash apart everything! An all conquering will!
Although Bei Feng’s internal energy was extremely abundant, without infusing a will, it was not a match for this energy!
If one compared the two bouts of energy, it was like comparing two person, one of whom had gone through a rigorous military training. The other would be a stout farmer without any weapons and only relying on brute force. How could the latter be a match for the former!
Bei Feng calmed his thoughts and stopped paying attention to his bleeding hand. At this time, sparks of inspirations were flashing through his mind!
“What is my will, and the soul of my energy?”
Bei Feng questioned himself as all the events that he’d experienced in his life flashed through his sea of consciousness.
The sea of consciousness is sometimes known as God’s forbidden zone. There were too many unexplained mysteries inside. At this moment, inside Bei Feng’s sea of consciousness, in the completely black space, a mini Bei Feng was seated, cross legged. A faint white light radiated off him, and the little figure was similarly muttering to himself.
