Jiang Chen dove all the way down. There was an end to the abyss, but there was no end to the stone well. He was surrounded by chaos and mist. There were only two things that made him feel deeply. One was that the Genesis Qi was getting denser and denser, and the other was that it was getting hotter and hotter. It was a heat that came from the bottom of his heart and made him restless. Not only was the surface of his skin hot, but the fire in his heart seemed to be gushing out.
Even though Jiang Chen had the protection of the Five Elemental Divine Fire, it was still like trying to put out a burning cart of firewood with a cup of water. It was impossible to resist the terrifying heat. Without the protection of the Five Elemental Divine Fire, Jiang Chen believed that ordinary people would have been melted and turned to ashes long ago.
"It's too hot here. Isn't it too strange?"
Jiang Chen scrunched his brows in a frown, and sweat constantly flowed down his body.
As time passed, Jiang Chen felt that his internal organs were about to explode from the heat. In the end, all the sweat on his body evaporated, and even the Five Elemental Divine Fire was like trying to put out a burning cart of firewood with a cup of water.
Jiang Chen continued to dive deeper. He didn't know how much time had passed or where he had reached. He only knew that he was about to reach the limit of his body in the heat, but he still couldn't find the location of the star core.
"I must find you!"
Jiang Chen was increasingly certain that there must be a star core here. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so difficult to move an inch. Every once in a while, the heat in his body would invade his body again and again, as if his tendons and bones were being torn apart and his flesh was being torn apart.
But Jiang Chen still gritted his teeth and endured. No one knew how much pain he was in, and no one knew what he had experienced. During this trip to the abyss, Jiang Chen had likely reached the bottom of the earth.
Finally, the heavens didn't disappoint those who tried!
Jiang Chen finally arrived at the bottom of a rolling pool of lava. The lava was crimson and emitted boundless heat, making it extremely difficult for Jiang Chen to breathe. Waves of heat surged into the sky and assaulted his nostrils. The Divine Fire of Five Elements kept protecting Jiang Chen. The slightest mistake could cost Jiang Chen his life.
Above the magma, Jiang Chen saw a fiery-red oval sphere that was roughly ten feet wide. It spun continuously as the air around it crackled. The surface of the sphere was uneven, but Jiang Chen could feel an incomparably terrifying Genesis Qi pulsing from it.
"It's him! It was him! That was it! This is the Ancient Dragon Planet's Core! "
The Black King said excitedly from within the Buddha Prison Pagoda. His excitement was evident in his words.
"Are you saying that this huge fireball is the star core?"
A blazing light exploded in Jiang Chen's eyes. His pupils shrank, and his heart turned incomparably solemn. Star core. Had he finally found the star core?
Jiang Chen rejoiced. If he had given up halfway, he might not have had any fate with the star core. However, he had risked his life to dive deep underground and searched for a long time. If not for the Divine Fire of Five Elements, he would not have been able to reach this place. No wonder the Black King had said that even his old master only dared to devour a star core after reaching the Star stage. The environment here was already so terrifying that it left one speechless. Any expert below the Star stage would undoubtedly die if they entered this place. The scorching fire energy was enough to melt them in an instant.
"That's right. This is the star's core, the source of energy for countless stars. The reason why a star can keep on rotating is because of the existence of the star's core. Combined with the gravitational force between the stars, it forms a star that keeps on rotating."
"It's a pity that this star core doesn't have much life left. It's only ten feet in size. However, it's perfect for you to absorb. The largest star core I've ever seen was nearly ten thousand feet in size. It's pretty terrifying. Even so, this star core can support Ancient Dragon Star for a billion years. The star power contained within is continuously compressed and baked by the Geocentric Star Fire, causing the star power to burn and transform into Genesis Qi that is continuously emitted from the depths of the planet's core. This is why the scene we saw earlier was formed. Without this stone well, the Genesis Qi would seep through the ground and reach the surface of the planet. The intensity of the seepage would be different, and the Genesis veins would be formed. Some places would be filled with Genesis Qi, while others would be extremely dry. "
The Black King's words were akin to enlightenment for Jiang Chen. It also made him realize that the origin of Genesis Qi was the star core. A ten feet large star core could support a star's Genesis Qi for a billion years. It was pretty terrifying.
"In that case, if I swallow this Planet Core, won't I cause the collapse of Ancient Dragon Star?"
Jiang Chen frowned and asked in a low voice.
"No, the star core is merely the core of the Genesis Qi. When you saw this star core, the Geocentric Star Fire had already burned half of the star core. In other words, the Genesis Qi under the entire Ancient Dragon Star is enough to support Ancient Dragon Star for a billion years. Even if the heaviest Ancient Dragon Star gradually loses its Genesis Qi, Ancient Dragon Star will not collapse. It will just become a barren land where the Genesis Qi will gradually thin and become an abandoned planet. There are countless stars like this in the universe. Do you know how many years have passed in the universe? No one knows, and no one knows. It's not easy to find a planet with a star core. Some of the bigger planets can still last for billions or even billions of years even after their star cores have been burned. Even a planet with lush foliage and dense Genesis Qi may have lost its star core long ago. You're pretty lucky this time. "
The Black King explained to Jiang Chen. He did not seem to know much about the star core.
Jiang Chen nodded silently. So that's how it was. Previously, he was worried that if he absorbed the star core, the entire Ancient Dragon Star would be destroyed and billions of lives would be wiped out. If that happened, he would become a real homicidal maniac.
"It seems that my luck is pretty good. Otherwise, as you said, even a planet with dense Genesis Qi could be useless. If I can't find a star core that's too big, I might not be able to bear it. Hahaha, even the heavens are helping me."
Jiang Chen said excitedly.
"The Geocentric Star Fire is too scary. Even my Five Elemental Divine Fire can't resist it. It would be perfect if I could absorb the Geocentric Star Fire."
Jiang Chen's eyes were filled with dissatisfaction and covetousness.
"You can't do that, Master. This Geocentric Star Fire is too domineering. It's impossible to keep it for yourself. Even the Star Core has been burned to nothingness. If you were to take it into your body, it would instantly melt.
