As he spoke, Little Fatty moved at lightning speed. In the blink of an eye, he approached the Heaven Connecting Drum. Under the gazes of all the people and Wang Baole's focused gaze, Little Fatty lifted his right hand, and the Star Guiding Drum materialized. As he leaped forward, he arrived next to the one thousand feet tall Heaven Connecting Drum and struck it!
Thud!
A loud, muffled sound shook the sky at that instant. It was shocking, and as it reverberated through the world, it caused all the cultivators' hearts to tremble. Wang Baole was the same. His breathing quickened slightly, and he immediately saw the sea of clouds in the sky rapidly dissipating. The originally clear sky instantly turned dark!
When he noticed that Wang Baole was staring at the sky, the red string paper doll beside him said faintly, "The first sound of the drum is the sound of the sky being opened. It can make the sky turn into a curtain, and it can make the stars appear clear!"
At the instant it said those words, Little Fatty let out a loud roar and swung the drum in his hand. He struck the drum a second time, and the second sound spread out.
As the sound appeared, scattered stars instantly appeared in the dark sky. If the number of stars was compared to the entire sky, they were very few. In fact, they were not even one in ten thousand. Most of the stars that appeared were dim, and it was obvious that most of them were ordinary stars!
"The second sound of the drum is the prelude to Star Guiding. After that, the more sounds the drum makes, the more stars appear. Because of that, the chances of Spirit Stars and Immortal Stars appearing will increase. If you can strike the drum seven times, you will have the right to summon special stars. After that, it will be the same … The more sounds you strike, the higher the chances of special stars appearing will continuously increase!
"According to the records of the Starfall Empire, if you can strike the drum more than ten times, you will have the initial possibility of summoning Dao Stars, but the chances are extremely low …" the Emperor of Starfall said faintly. He explained all of this to Wang Baole so that he could understand everything to the greatest extent before he struck the Heaven Connecting Drum.
Wang Baole was very grateful for that. As he turned his head and bowed to the Starfall Emperor, the little fatty knocked a third time and a fourth time.
At that moment, the number of stars in the sky continued to increase. From the third strike, there were only a few stars. By the fourth strike, the entire sky seemed to be filled with stars, as if they could gather together. They probably already occupied twenty percent of the entire starry sky. The light of these stars was also slightly different from before.
Those that were relatively brighter were not Mortal Planets, but Spirit Planets. When Fatty struck the bell a fourth time, the starlight in the sky began to shine even brighter than before. Those were … Immortal Planets!
Looking at all of this, Wang Baole's eyes shone with a strange light. His original goal had been the Immortal Planet. Now that he saw it, his heart was stirred. However, this stirring was more of ambition.
"I wonder if this little fatty will be able to summon a special planet!" Wang Baole mumbled in his heart. At the same time, in the square, outside the Imperial City, and in the entire Starfall Empire, almost everyone was paying attention to what was going on. After Fatty struck the bell a fourth time, faint sounds of discussion could be heard. Everyone was guessing whether or not a special planet would appear.
Fatty was the same. At this moment, his heart was filled with excitement and anxiety. After striking the drum four times, he could already feel how difficult it was. The first strike was still manageable, but when it came to the fourth strike, he had practically used all the power of his cultivation base. At this moment, his body was practically empty.
However, since he dared to be the first to strike the drum, he was naturally prepared. At this moment, he let out a loud roar and raised his left hand to rip off a jade pendant hanging around his neck. He crushed it viciously, and a mist immediately spread out from the jade pendant to envelop him. Within the mist, his aura erupted with a bang, and he picked up the drumstick and struck the drum again.
The fifth strike!
The sky trembled, and starlight gathered to form a river of stars. The number of stars that filled the sky had already occupied 30% of the area. As the aura was majestic, more and more Immortal stars appeared. Unfortunately, there was still no special planet that appeared.
As for Fatty, the mist around him had already dissipated. His body was swaying, and his face was pale. It seemed like he had reached his limit.
"So weak?" When Wang Baole saw this scene, he was somewhat surprised.
The Emperor of Starfall looked at Wang Baole. After seeing Wang Baole shake his head, he said indifferently, "It's not that this person is weak. It's just that the difficulty of striking the drum becomes more and more difficult. Young friend, do you know the number of strikes that have taken place in the Graveyard of Stars for many years?"
"Ten strikes!" At the same time the Sovereign of Starfall said those words, the fatty let out a shrill roar. As his body trembled, he cast a secret art, and his body withered rapidly. In the blink of an eye, he looked as if he had turned into a skeleton. With the price he had to pay, he had finally managed to strike the sixth time.
As he struck the drum, the starlight in the sky shone intensely. It occupied 40% of the starry sky, and finally … a star that surpassed all the starlight that had appeared at that moment appeared!
"A special planet!"
An uproar immediately rose from all directions. When the masked woman and the others' eyes shone with a strange light, Fatty seemed to have overexerted himself too much. At that moment, he coughed out a mouthful of blood, and his body fell from midair. The drumstick in his hand no longer had any strength to support it. At that moment, it crumbled and turned into specks of light that scattered away.
It was also at that moment that the only special planet that had appeared in the sky shone brightly. In an instant, starlight descended and enveloped Fatty's body. It lifted his unconscious body and lifted him into the sky. In the end, he disappeared from everyone's sight. The stars in the sky all dimmed and dissipated. Only that special planet hung high in the sky. If one looked closely, they would be able to see that Fatty, who had disappeared from the star, seemed to be inside it!
"That fatty actually fused with a special planet!" Wang Baole's breathing quickened. Desire appeared in his eyes. He felt that if Fatty could succeed, then he would have even less of a problem.
The Emperor of Starfall spoke slowly. Then, he glanced at Wang Baole and spoke again. "That brat's luck is pretty good. Although it's only the lowest special planet, it's his fortune to be acknowledged."
"Generally speaking, special planets that contain natural laws are divided into nine grades. Although the difference between the upper grade and the Dao Star is like the difference between heaven and earth, if one is lucky enough, there is a very small chance that one can advance to the Dao Star level. However, that chance is very, very small.
"What this brat fused with is one of the lower nine grades. In fact, there is a special type of star above the first grade. I call them … Ancient Stars. For countless years, after failing to advance to the Dao Star level, they are still unwilling to give up and try to surpass themselves … Ancient Stars. In the Graveyard of Stars, from ancient times until now, there have been a total of nine such Ancient Stars."
"Nine grades? Ancient Stars above the first grade? " Wang Baole's eyes flashed. Just as he was about to ask the Emperor of Starfall for more details, a second foreign chosen flew out after Fatty and headed straight for the Heaven Reaching Drum.
The second person was the masked woman. Her appearance attracted Wang Baole's attention. In fact, this woman's battle prowess was very strong. She was one of the strongest foreign chosen this time. Her appearance also attracted the attention of the elegant cultivator and the others.
Her elegance was not something that Fatty could compare to. As soon as she approached, the drumstick in her hand appeared and she hit the drum for the fifth time in one breath!
The galaxy that had just dispersed in the sky appeared again in an instant. Although Wang Baole could not see the masked woman's face in the dazzling light, the aura on her body showed that she was very calm. She hit the drum for the sixth time and the seventh time!
After two strikes, a storm seemed to have been set off in the starry sky. The number of stars directly covered almost 70% of the area. There were also many special stars in the area. Some of them were obviously brighter. Obviously, they were not of the Lower Nine Grades, but had reached the Middle Nine Grades.
"Middle four grades!" The Emperor of Starfall said slowly with admiration in his eyes.
"Her goal shouldn't stop here!" Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and murmured. As the masked woman hit the drum for the eighth time, she seemed to be close to her limit. After hitting the drum for the eighth time, the masked woman's body trembled, and her aura became very weak.
At this moment, the starry sky suddenly brightened up. The number of stars spread to eighty percent of the entire starry sky. There were hundreds of millions of stars in the starry sky, densely packed together. It would not be an exaggeration to say that the sky was filled with starlight.
Above them, three stars that surpassed all the others appeared. They hung high in the sky. In the absence of stronger stars, the light of these three stars seemed to be able to illuminate the surroundings.
The Emperor of Starfall's eyes shone with a strange light as he said softly, "Top two grades. If she can hit the drum again, all the stars of the top two grades will be drawn out. There is even a high chance that … a special star of the top one grade will appear!"
"Unfortunately, she has reached her limit. Even with external forces, she can't do it."
