"Because of this drop of blood essence, the Star Palace Master was able to cast the Star Secret Skill for a much longer period of time," Temple Lord Yuan explained.
"Under normal circumstances, after a cultivator cultivates the first volume of the Secret Skill of Star Palace, he can only maintain it for ten breaths' time when he activates the second volume. As for the second volume, he can only maintain it for one breath's time. When the Master of Star Palace activates the second volume of the Secret Skill of Star Palace, because of the drop of blood essence, he can continue killing for a hundred breaths' time or even longer. If he were to consume the drop of blood essence without considering the consequences, it would not be a problem for him to continue killing for a few hours."
"Because of this, the Star Palace Master went on a killing spree for a full hour. He killed so many experts from various forces that they were terrified. The Star Palace Master even planned to kill his way into the nest of those forces and annihilate them all. In the end, it was the highest level of the Holy League and the White Emperor who came personally to mediate the matter."
"The White Emperor?" Jian Wushuang was stunned.
As far as he knew, the White Emperor was supreme and usually did not bother with the fights in the Holy League. Although the Star Palace Master's massacre had caused a huge commotion, it was not enough for the White Emperor to come personally, right?
"I do not know why the White Emperor came personally. But in the end, under the mediation of the White Emperor, both sides came to an agreement. From then on, all forces and sects were not allowed to covet the Star Secret Skill. The Star Palace Master was also restricted. In the Eternal Chaotic World, unless the other party took the initiative to attack or pushed the Star Sect too far, the Star Palace Master was not allowed to use the Secret Skill to kill wantonly," Temple Lord Yuan said.
"Is that so?" Jian Wushuang understood.
He finally knew why the forces in Eternal Chaotic World were so fearful of Star Palace Master.
Even though his ranking on Heaven and Earth Supreme ranking list was higher than that of Star Palace Master, his deterrence power was still inferior to that of Star Palace Master.
So it was because of that drop of blood essence.
Because of that drop of blood essence, the Star Palace Lord had spared no expense to kill. It was indeed too terrifying.
"If I use the Star Secret Technique with all my might, I can also erupt with battle prowess that isn't inferior to a Great Emperor's. However, I can only maintain it for a breath's time while the Star Palace Lord can maintain it for several hours." Jian Wushuang sighed inwardly.
Jian Wushuang wouldn't be able to kill that many people in a single breath, even if they just stood there and let him kill them.
However, in a few hours … the Star Palace Lord could totally kill all the enemies who had offended him.
"After the massacre by the Star Palace Lord, the Star Lineage and the big forces, as well as many solo experts, formed a huge grudge. Although the big forces and solo experts were filled with hatred towards the Star Secret Technique and they were greedy for it, they were fearful of the absolute power of the Star Palace Lord. Hence, no one dared to act recklessly."
"Over the years, it has always been like that."
"However, during the massacre back then, more than half of the drop of blood essence that the Star Palace Lord had obtained was used up. In the long years that followed, regardless of whether it was wandering in Ancient Mystery Land or encountering danger in a few lairs, the Star Palace Lord still performed the Star Secret Technique. As a result, the drop of blood essence became lesser and lesser. After all these years, there wasn't much left."
"Once the drop of blood essence was completely used up, the Star Palace Lord would naturally lose his deterrence effect. By then, the experts from various forces would know about it and there would be an eighty percent chance that the Star Lineage wouldn't be able to withstand it."
"The Star Palace Lord knew about it. Hence, he wanted to attempt to break through and become a Great Emperor!"
"Only by becoming a true Great Emperor, the Star Lineage would be able to sit back and relax."
After listening to Temple Lord Yuan, Jian Wushuang, Hall Master Gu Xin and Hall Master Nie Yun became silent.
Previously, they had found out about the potential danger of the Star Lineage from Temple Lord Yuan. However, Temple Lord Yuan hadn't explained it in detail back then. It was only then that they truly understood it.
At the same time, they also understood the Star Palace Lord's painstaking efforts.
"In other words, even though I am ranked thirtieth in Heaven and Earth Supreme Ranking, which is one rank higher than the Star Palace Lord, I still can't intimidate those experts?" Jian Wushuang asked in a low voice.
"Yes." Hall Master Yuan nodded, "In order to intimidate those forces and experts who are greedy for the Secret Skill of Star Palace and who have a great grudge against the Lineage of Star, merely relying on the fighting capabilities of the top thirty on the Heaven and Earth Supreme ranking list is far from enough. Instead, you need to have the fighting capabilities of a Great Emperor. At the very least, you need to have the fighting capabilities of an Underworld God."
"Underworld God?" Jian Wushuang squinted his eyes.
Underworld God was ranked sixteenth on Heaven and Earth Supreme Ranking List. He was the number one below Great Emperors and the strongest among Emperor Gods.
Jian Wushuang had wandered in the ancient battlefield for six thousand years and he had received many opportunities. His power had increased tremendously. During the battle in Deluge Fortress, he hadn't given his all. However, even if he had given his all, his fighting power definitely couldn't be compared to Underworld God's.
Even Sword One, who was more powerful than him, reckoned that he was slightly weaker than Underworld God.
"Fighting power of the Underworld God, although I can't reach it now, as long as I have time, there will be a chance," Jian Wushuang muttered.
Sword One's power was still recovering. He had just recovered to Middle Stage Chaotic Realm. However, as long as he recovered to Peak Middle Stage Chaotic Realm, with his identity as an ancient expert, his power shouldn't be weaker than Underworld God's. He might even be stronger.
"Palace Master, the solo experts who have great hatred for the Star Lineage have almost all been eliminated by you. The remaining ones should be the big forces. However, these big forces aren't easy to deal with," Temple Lord Yuan said.
Jian Wushuang understood too.
To be able to become a big force in Eternal Chaotic World, they weren't ordinary.
Maybe the number of Almighties that these big forces had on the surface and their overall power wasn't as great as Deluge Fortress. However, the scariest thing about these big forces wasn't the number of experts that they had, but the huge foundation that they had.
As the saying went, pulling one hair will affect the whole body. It was the best way to describe these big forces.
If Jian Wushuang were to really attack a big force and wanted to destroy them completely, the big force would go all out to counterattack. They would use some of the resources that they had and the relationships that they had accumulated over the years to ask for help from experts. Moreover, there would definitely be many disputes in the Holy League.
Jian Wushuang reckoned that any big force, if Jian Wushuang wanted to destroy it, it wouldn't be any easier than destroying Deluge Fortress.
Plus, the solo experts knew that if they joined forces to fight against the Star Lineage, the big forces would naturally join forces too if they sensed danger. That would be even more troublesome.
