Not only did the refinement target Seiyu's body, but it also targeted Seiyu's soul and even his bloodline.
This process would obviously bring unimaginable pain to Sacredfeather. His body violently struggled in the void furnace as he let out a soundless roar of rage.
The flesh that he had just recovered vanished bit by bit in the smelting process. At the same time, the presence of the ways of the Darkstar clan fused into his flesh through the smelting process of the furnace.
Every time a sliver of the presence of ways that belonged to the Darkstar race fused into his body, the power of the Darkstar race that Seiyu gave off would increase and become stronger.
At the same time, the tremendous life force from the cultivators in the outside world constantly surged into Seiyu's body.
In the end, when the physical body was smelted by the void furnace, new flesh and blood would rapidly grow as it disappeared.
The new flesh and blood had clearly become even more powerful after fusing with even more essence blood and all the power from the cultivators in the outside world. The only flaw was that although it still belonged to Seiyu, it seemed to be leaning towards the Darkstar race no matter how one looked at it.
The Void Smelting lasted for four hours before it ended. Even though it was a short period of time, Sacredfeather had undergone a qualitative leap in that short period of time. His strength had increased tremendously.
Ignoring everything else, just his body had completely reached the level of a Primordial realm expert after undergoing such an inhumane tempering.
With such a strong physical body, it was barely able to withstand the enhanced blood essence.
However, the devouring formations in the thirty-six main cities and the Hundred Saints Cities did not stop operating. Not only did the devouring power not weaken, but it instead became even more powerful. Strands of energy and essence were absorbed from the cultivators in the outside world, all gathering above the royal city.
In the end, the various energies gathered above the royal city became greater and greater.
The spatial furnace stopped refining. The entire ceremony seemed to fall into a temporary silence at that moment. Only Tian Shengxian stood on the altar leisurely. He was in no hurry to take the next step as if he was waiting for something.
Jianchen's heart was in his throat. Naturally, he could sense the increase in strength of Seiyu's bloodline, but in his opinion, it was still nowhere close to the bloodline of the Grand Exalt's first generation.
Even though he had never seen the Grand Exalt's descendant before, it was not difficult for him to imagine.
This was because he could already tell that the increase in strength of Seiyu's bloodline was more of a 'quantitative' increase. Although it had increased in terms of 'quality' as well, it was not as great as he had imagined it to be.
Time passed bit by bit. The ceremony entered a strange state of stagnation. Tian Shengxian did not do anything at all. All the participants in the royal city waited quietly. Only the various energies above the royal city that relied on the devouring of the power of bloodlines, cultivation, souls, and life of the cultivators gathered more and more.
Even though the cultivators from the outer world who were active in the Darkstar race were not powerful, they had the advantage in numbers. As a result, when all the cultivators from the outer world gathered together, the total amount of energy formed was extremely shocking.
From afar, the vast amount of energy that had gathered above the royal capital had already formed an ocean, giving off a tremendous pressure.
The pressure was so great that it made many Primordial realm experts become stern. As for the Godhood cultivators below the royal city, they were filled with fear. All of them trembled in fear.
Finally, when over seventy percent of the cultivators' energies had been devoured, the devouring formation seemed to reach a state of saturation. All thirty-seven formations stopped operating at the same time.
Only now did Tian Shengxian make his next move. He turned around and faced the Grand Exalt's statue. He bowed deeply and said loudly, "Please bestow your blood, ancestor!"
Tian Shengxian's voice was extremely loud. It boomed loudly, shaking up the entire Darkstar World. It even caused the laws of the Darkstar World to pulse.
In the next moment, the space at the statue's chest blurred, and a droplet of blood the size of a raindrop appeared out of nowhere.
That drop of blood seemed to contain an unimaginable might. More than that, it also contained an unfathomable aura of laws. Following the appearance of that drop of blood, the entire Dark Star Realm began to surge. The laws of the Great Dao appeared and interweaved with one another to form divine chains of order after another.
All the Darkstar clansmen could sense a monstrous pressure from the blood. It was so great that they could not even think about resisting. The pressure suppressed their bloodline, their cultivation, their souls, and all their dignity.
As a result, they could not help but kneel in the direction of the droplet of blood.
"T- Grand Exalt's essence blood. This is a droplet of essence blood that the Grand Exalt of the Darkstar race left behind in the past!" Jianchen stared at the droplet of blood that gave off a tremendous pressure from the top of the fifth hall. His mind shook violently as his heart churned.
He had never thought that the Darkstar race would actually possess the essence blood of Grand Exalts. Moreover, the droplet of essence blood was clearly better preserved than the droplet of essence blood from the ancient Skywolf, so both the presence of ways and the strength of the bloodline surpassed the droplet of essence blood from the ancient Skywolf.
Of course, this did not mean that the Darkstar Grand Exalt was more powerful than the ancient Skywolf. This was because when the two of them left behind their essence blood, they were in different situations.
The Darkstar Grand Exalt had been slain by the Wood Spirit Grand Exalt when he was at his peak. At the same time, he had left behind various preparations before his death, so his essence blood was better preserved.
The Ancient Skywolf had left behind his essence blood when he passed away. Judging from the simple dwelling he had left behind, the Ancient Skywolf clearly did not have as many meticulous arrangements as the Grand Exalt of the Darkstar race, nor did he have so many clansmen worshipping him. As a result, his essence blood had naturally weakened over time.
"I've always felt like Tian Shengxian was hiding the most crucial part of the ritual from the ten divine halls. Looking at it now, it's the Grand Exalt's essence blood that he's hiding. Though, don't tell me the Darkstar race wants to use the essence blood on Seiyu? " Jianchen was extremely unsettled. He knew just how precious and rare the essence blood of Grand Exalts was. If the Darkstar race really did use the essence blood on Seiyu, they would really be going all out.
"But speaking of which, if Seiyu really does fuse with the Grand Exalt's essence blood, his bloodline really can be raised to the level of a first generation descendant of a Grand Exalt. So that's how it is. Everything the Darkstar race did before was to pave the way for Seiyu to fuse with the essence blood. "
"After all, it's the essence blood of a Grand Exalt. If you want to forcefully absorb it, you'll probably need to be a Grand Prime at the very least. Compared to Seiyu's strength as a Divine King before, absorbing the essence blood of a Grand Exalt is basically impossible. If that's the case, I need to find a compromise, which is to change Seiyu's bloodline so that Seiyu becomes a member of the Darkstar race and absorb the essence blood as a member of the Darkstar race. That way, the rejection from the Grand Exalt's essence blood will be reduced to a minimum. "
"At the same time, it can strengthen Sacredfeather's bloodline and body even further so that his endurance will increase drastically when he fuses with the essence blood of a Grand Exalt …" Jian Chen's eyes lit up. To Sacredfeather, refining a droplet of Grand Exalt's essence blood with a formation personally presided over by Tian Shengxian was basically a great fortune.
