He closed his eyes as if he had forgotten the entire world.
When he opened his eyes, his mind was immersed in a world of starlight.
Black crystals that emitted a dim light were embedded in the sky. Each of them was the source of the star power of this world.
He reached out his hand and summoned a crystal. When he held it in his palm, his expression immediately changed.
As soon as he held the crystal, it shattered and turned into a ray of black light that went into his body. All of a sudden, Ning Fan felt pain all over his body. Even the devil marks on his back seemed to be burning hot.
"What is this crystal?!"
His eyes gradually calmed down. The pain he felt when the crystal entered his body had faded.
However, when he looked inside his body, his expression suddenly changed. It was because he realized that after the crystal entered his body, the demon power and magic power in his body did not increase but the devil qi in his body increased by one trace.
In other words, devouring a piece of black crystal in this world would increase his devil qi by one unit!
Not only that, Ning Fan also realized that after devouring the crystal, the strength of his physical body seemed to have improved a little, slowly advancing towards the third level of the Jade Life Realm.
Most importantly, when he raised his finger, a ray of black starlight shot out from his finger!
"This is … natal star power! Devouring the crystals in this world can not only increase my natal star power but also improve my devil cultivation base! Does this mean that the nature of the black star is similar to devil qi …? "
"After Lu Wu gave me the white chess piece, I obtained many insights. All of them were the inheritance of the Heaven Sovereign. One of them was the method to comprehend the Black Star Technique. The first step to comprehend the Black Star Technique is to understand the difference between the black star and the other stars. I have already comprehended it before. The second step is to condense the natal star power. The third step is to condense the 'natal star' with the star power. As long as I condense the first natal star, I will be able to cultivate the Black Star Technique. In the future, if I get injured, I can summon the natal black star and use the star power to heal my injuries! "
"To condense a natal star, I need at least ten thousand traces of natal star power. In other words, I only need to devour ten thousand black crystals to condense the first natal star!"
Ning Fan's eyes swept across the surroundings. This was the world in his mind. The number of crystals in this world was definitely no less than fifty thousand!
If he could devour all the crystals here, he would be able to condense at least five Natal Stars. At the same time, he would be able to increase his demonic Qi by 50,000 units and his demonic cultivation by 50,000 units!
"This is an opportunity! Once I devour all fifty thousand crystals here, I'll be able to increase my demonic energy by fifty thousand and break through to the Soul Formation Intermediate Stage! In this way, my demonic power will be at the Mid Divine Transformation Stage, and my demonic power will be at the Mid Divine Transformation Stage. Although my magic power will still be at the Half-Step Divine Transformation Stage, as long as my magic power breaks through the Mid Divine Transformation Stage, I will be able to break through to the Late Divine Transformation Stage when the time comes! "
There were more than fifty thousand crystals in this place. It was a good opportunity for Ning Fan to improve his devil cultivation!
In the world of his mind, Ning Fan was like the only ruler. His fingernails were forming complicated and incomprehensible hand seals. Then, he opened his mouth and inhaled. Billowing black wind blew, rolling up a few crystals that were embedded in the ground and swallowed them into his stomach.
In just half a day, he had already devoured nearly a thousand crystals.
His demonic cultivation had increased by a thousand units, and he now had a thousand strands of Natal Star Power in his body.
Faintly, half an illusory black demonic star was forming in his right eye.
In his mind, Ning Fan was busy devouring the star power.
Outside his mind, Ning Fan's physical body was standing still in the giant palace. His eyes were tightly shut and he did not move at all like a statue.
After devouring a thousand crystals, the fifty thousand strands of black starlight that were entangling his physical body had been reduced to around one thousand.
These thousand strands of starlight were increasing Ning Fan's devil qi and improving his physique.
In front of Ning Fan's physical body, the giant beast Lu Wu's eyes gradually turned solemn.
"The Heaven Sovereign once said that the most difficult part of condensing a Natal Star is the first one. In the process of condensing the first Natal Star, one needs to devour ten thousand traces of star power. The most dangerous part is indeed the thousandth trace. All living beings have souls and so do the stars. When a cultivator condenses one thousand traces of Natal Star Power for the first time, he will face the first test of his Star Soul … Can he pass it?! "
In the world of his mind, Ning Fan had no idea what was happening in the outside world. At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged on the frosty sky, refining the one thousand pitch-black crystals in his body.
One thousand crystals were equivalent to one thousand traces of star power. As the crystals were completely refined, not only did his devil cultivation base improve tremendously, but his aura force also caused one thousand traces of black starlight to fly around his body. It was a beautiful sight.
Sensing the starlight entangling his body, Ning Fan revealed a satisfied look. He could feel that after condensing one thousand traces of Natal Star Power, his injuries were recovering at a much faster speed.
However, after a while, the starry sky in front of him suddenly trembled.
A ferocious beast roar resounded in front of him, resounding across heaven and earth.
Ning Fan immediately rose to his feet and was on full alert. At a place where the star power was the strongest, a total of one thousand traces of crystals suddenly collapsed. The star power gathered and turned into the shadow of a gigantic pitch-black beast.
* Roar *
A bestial roar resounded. The eyes of that gigantic beast glinted with ferocious light. It dashed towards Ning Fan with the terrifying aura force of a Mid Divine Transformation Realm cultivator!
"The power of the starry sky is not something an ant can comprehend. I, the Star Soul, am here to take your life!"
That gigantic beast spoke the human language. As soon as its voice fell, it immediately opened its mouth and breathed out a sea of flames, engulfing Ning Fan.
"Star Soul, huh …?"
Ning Fan murmured to himself. His eyes were calm as he calmly walked out of the sea of flames without suffering any injuries.
With a sway of his body, he instantly vanished without a trace. At the next moment, he was already standing on top of the gigantic beast's head with his hands clasped behind his back.
"The Star Soul of a Mid Divine Transformation Realm cultivator is nothing to be afraid of … Break!"
Ning Fan lifted his foot and stomped on the gigantic beast's head which was as large as a mountain.
As soon as he stomped on it, the gigantic beast revealed a horrified expression. It let out a shrill howl after being stomped by the tremendous force. In the end, with a loud bang, the beast's body exploded and vanished into thin air!
Ning Fan opened his mouth and inhaled. The one thousand traces of starlight that formed the gigantic beast's body were all sucked into his stomach.
* Hiss *
In the cloud palace, Lu Wu's face was filled with astonishment.
Just a few breaths ago, Ning Fan's Natal Star Power had reached one thousand traces and triggered the first attack of his Star Soul.
However, in just a short while, Ning Fan destroyed the Star Soul and seized one thousand traces of his opponent's star power.
Lu Wu's expression did not change at all.
"After condensing one thousand traces of Natal Star Power, one will encounter the first Star Soul. This Star Soul usually has the strength of a Mid Divine Transformation Realm cultivator. This Lu Bei is obviously just a Mid Divine Transformation Realm cultivator but he managed to kill the Star Soul of a Mid Divine Transformation Realm cultivator in just a breath's time. This man's combat power is rather terrifying … Is he invincible among those at the same level as him?"
"He's indeed worthy of being the person who was bestowed the black chess piece by the Heaven Sovereign. However, I wonder if he can still remain so calm when he encounters the second attack of his Star Soul after condensing five thousand traces of star power."
In the world of his spirit, Ning Fan quickly refined the one thousand traces of star power that he had seized. As such, there were already two thousand traces of Natal Star Power in his body.
Starlight flashed around his body. Ning Fan accelerated his speed to the maximum. Like a trace of purple smoke, he teleported between heaven and earth.
Ning Fan dug out crystals from the ground and swallowed them into his stomach to refine the star power.
One day later, the number of Natal Star Power in his body had already reached an astonishing five thousand traces.
After successfully condensing five thousand traces of star power, the star power in front of him suddenly became chaotic. Nearly three thousand traces of crystals shattered and the scattered star power condensed into a gigantic Star Soul Beast which was even larger than the previous one.
* Roar *
As the gigantic beast roared, the earth trembled and the mountains shook. The aura force of a Late Divine Transformation Realm expert was released violently!
"The power of the starry sky isn't something an ant can comprehend. I, the Star Soul, am here to take your life!"
The gigantic beast opened its mouth, wanting to breathe out star flames again. However, this time, Ning Fan did not even give it the time to open its mouth.
Looking at the ferocious beast which was two thousand and five hundred zhang * (3.33m per zhang) in size, Ning Fan's expression remained unchanged. He pointed out a finger and a purplish-golden sandstorm suddenly blew across the sky.
This purplish-golden sandstorm had the power to corrode everything. That power was Samsara, the power to turn everything into ashes and dust into dust!
* Roar *
Before the gigantic Star Soul Beast could launch its attack, it was suddenly shrouded by the purplish-golden sandstorm. Its scales which were as hard as metal directly turned into quicksand within the sandstorm!
Its eyes were filled with disbelief. Its body was trembling.
It used to be arrogant because it thought that it was the Star Soul while Ning Fan was just an ant.
However, in front of this purplish-golden sandstorm, the gigantic beast felt an irresistible fear.
Ning Fan was not an ant! In front of this Wind Mist Finger, everything in the world was just an ant!
In the midst of its miserable shriek, the gigantic beast turned into ashes and dissipated in the wind.
Three thousand traces of star force were absorbed into Ning Fan's stomach from the corpse of the gigantic beast.
"It's eight thousand traces now …"
Ning Fan muttered to himself.
In the Cloud Palace, Lu Wu's eyes widened in surprise. If Ning Fan had instantly killed a Star Soul of the same level as him earlier, he was impressed by Ning Fan's ability to instantly kill another Star Soul that was one level higher than him.
Not everyone could kill an enemy that was one in ten thousand. Those who could do it were all heavenly prodigies who were one in ten thousand.
At least, Lu Wu knew that he was not that kind of heavenly prodigy. He did not have the ability to kill an enemy that was at a higher level than him.
However, Ning Fan did it with ease.
What Lu Wu could not understand the most was the purplish-golden sandstorm that rose around Ning Fan's body when he killed the second Star Soul.
"What technique is this purplish-golden sandstorm … I was once a Demon Marshal of the Heaven Court. Although my cultivation base is not high, I have seen many experts. However, I have never seen any expert who could display the power of this purplish-golden sandstorm … The power within the sandstorm is very terrifying. It's not something that I can understand …"
Lu Wu's eyes became complicated.
In the beginning, he only treated Ning Fan as a Divine Transformation Realm junior. Now, however, the way he looked at Ning Fan was almost as if he was his peer.
"I can't see through this Lu Bei! Even if this young man was in the Heaven Court in the past, I'm afraid he could be considered as an outstanding talent among the Divine Transformation Realm Heavenly Generals! "
In his mind, after devouring a large number of crystals, Ning Fan sat in the sky with his legs crossed and began to refine them.
For three days in a row, he was not moved by external objects. Three days later, he suddenly stood up. His body was surrounded by ten thousand rays of starlight!
"Ten thousand Dao. It's time to condense my first natal star!"
A Heaven Sovereign had one million natal stars. When one million stars appear, he could resist the attacks of immortal emperors without dying.
What Ning Fan condensed was just his first natal star. Compared to the Heaven Sovereign in the past, it was just a drop in the ocean. It was insignificant.
However, this star was of great significance. It was the first step for him to learn the Black Star Technique. He could not afford to make any mistakes!
* Roar *
When Ning Fan condensed ten thousand rays of star power, the roar of a beast reached the sky!
Between heaven and earth, nearly ten thousand black crystals crumbled. Ten thousand rays of star power condensed into a three thousand zhang * (3.33m per zhang) large ferocious beast.
A star soul! Moreover, this star soul had the cultivation base of a Peak Divine Transformation Realm expert!
"As long as I destroy this star soul, I can condense my first natal star!"
Ning Fan took a step forward. Black qi surrounded his body and his white robes turned into a black robe!
Before the star soul had the chance to say anything, his body had already exploded into countless black shadows and collapsed!
The shattered black shadows vanished from heaven and earth. At the next moment, they appeared around the body of the giant star soul beast and turned into countless black shadows. They rushed towards the beast as if they were dyed by thick ink.
All of a sudden, the giant star soul beast's expression froze as if it had seen something unbelievable.
At the next moment, the black shadows dispersed and condensed into a young man in black robes.
As for the body of the giant beast, it shattered with a bang, turning into countless blood mists in the sky. It was actually killed by that black shadow in an instant!
At the moment when the beast died, the first black star rose at the end of heaven and earth!
A strange feeling emerged in Ning Fan's body. His muscles, bones, and skin began to fester and decay. However, they were immediately filled up by the pitch-black starlight and he regained his vitality.
His muscles and bones were being reconstructed. Every inch of his muscles was filled with more strength than before.
"Is this … Star Power Tempering Body?!" Ning Fan's eyes were filled with joy. He could feel that after condensing the first black star, his body was once again reconstructed. He was reborn and became stronger!
The first time he experienced rebirth was during the Second Corpse Transformation Realm.
This time, it was star power tempering his body!
"I'm going to break through to the Third Level of the Jade Life Realm!" Ning Fan could feel that his physical body was breaking through to the next level!
…
In the Cloud Palace, Lu Wu was full of admiration.
He had already sensed that Ning Fan had instantly killed the third star soul and completely condensed his first natal star.
In this way, Ning Fan could be considered to have grasped the preliminary mastery of Star Technique …
"Even a Peak Divine Transformation Realm star soul was instantly killed by this young man … Is this young man really just a Mid Divine Transformation Realm cultivator? Even I am starting to doubt it … Hehe. This young man is extraordinary. I'm afraid there are few who can be his match below the Void Refinement Realm. If this young man was born in ancient times, he would surely be the candidate of an immortal emperor if he fought against the various heroes for the Dao! "
"Lu Daochen invited him … That Chen brat's eyes are always sharp." (To be continued.)
