Boom!
Tens of thousands of turbulent currents spread around like the eruption of a volcano, all filled with the riotous power of the stars.
It turned out that the Xuan Star Sect had anticipated that things wouldn't go so smoothly this time, so they had arranged a formation when collecting the Star Core.
They had cultivated a technique that breathed in and out the power of the stars; none were more proficient in the use of the Star Core than them.
However, the three Lu Ling Island Masters, upon seeing this, remained unperturbed.
The Lu Ling Island Master said, "Heh, we knew that the Xuan Star Sect cultivated the Dao of the Stars. How could we not be prepared for you?"
Around him, space distorted, like a mirror, instantly forming tens of thousands of fragments. Every turbulent current that rushed onto his body was refracted away, seemingly causing no harm.
"Since you know that my Xuan Star Sect cultivates the Dao of the Stars, then you should be aware of the vast and terrifying nature of this Dao!"
Yet, the Void God of the Xuan Star Sect sneered, "You're too arrogant!"
In the blink of an eye, the Star Core, for an unknown reason, went berserk. The Star power surging within was ten times more violent than before.
The Void God of the Xuan Star Sect made several gestures, and numerous Array Plates flew onto the Star Core.
"Array of Many Stars!"
The faces of the three men changed drastically.
The Array Plate was a Divine Artifact of royal-grade, capable of maximizing the power of the stars.
Immediately, the Lu Ling Island Master roared, "Not good, retreat quickly. We can't face this directly!"
They had not anticipated that this man would bring the Array of Many Stars, the protecting artifact of the Xuan Star Sect.
"Want to retreat? Not so easy!"
But, just as the three were retreating, the Array of Many Stars emitted bursts of violent star power. The energy within the Star Core seemed to have been drawn out, transforming into a beam of red light that suddenly exploded amidst the three Lu Ling Island Masters.
The protective shields around the three men also exploded layer by layer, letting out shouts of shock and anger.
The force of this explosion made the three great Void God Kings extremely miserable. Their faces turned pale in the moment. Though they weren't severely injured, they were extremely uncomfortable.
"The Array of Many Stars is indeed powerful!"
Lu Ling Island Master's eyes focused intensely on the Star Core, "But without the help of the Star Core, it wouldn't have such strength!"
"Exactly, our Sect Master and the others are holding back stronger opponents. We are enough to deal with you three!"
Om... A wave spread out, a large hole appeared, and then a powerful hand reached out from the hole, fiercely smashing against the Star Core.
Caught off guard, not one of the present Void Gods had sensed that someone would suddenly make a move. They saw that the Void God of the Xuan Star Sect was subjected to a violent backlash, and the uncontrolled Star Core smashed towards them.
"Steady!"
The powerful beings of the Xuan Star Sect bellowed, "Who dares to make a move!"
"Leave the Star Core!"
A voice came from the hole.
Then, they saw a figure, shrouded in an aura of apocalypse and calamity, emerged.
Around him were countless jet-black thunders of obliteration, emitting an extremely strange aura, and his face was unclear.
"Who are you!"
This person's aura was so strange that it made the powerful beings of the Xuan Star Sect extremely cautious.
"Who is this person?"
"This power is like the apocalypse and the calamity, it's very strange!"
"No matter who it is, they're also here to compete for the Star Core. The enemy of my enemy is my friend!"
The sudden appearance of this person brought a sigh of relief to the three Lu Ling Island Masters.
Wen Yuan's gaze shifted, and he burst out laughing, "Haha, friend, it seems like you're also here to seize the Star Core. Why don't we join hands? We'll share the spoils later. It's better than letting the Xuan Star Sect monopolize it!"
"I want this Star Core!"
This person didn't directly answer, but instead launched a Mana-giant hand directly towards the Star Core.
The person who just appeared was naturally Chu Yuan!
Using the Great Cataclysm Technique to disguise his identity, he was never going to appear as Emperor Dawu.
The Xuan Star Sect, after all, was not a common Void God force. While Chu Yuan wanted to acquire the Star Core, he wouldn't foolishly expose his identity right at his doorstep. He definitely needed to keep his true identity hidden.
This time, by severing his connection with the national destiny, he made it impossible for others to recognize him.
In the Eastern Xuan Region, he had never really used his full strength, and his Divine Abilities were unknown to all.
As Chu Yuan made his move, a terrifying combat power burst forth. The giant hand carried both the power of cataclysmic destruction and intense devouring power.
With the grasp of the War God, and the royal-grade Divine Artifact, the sacrificial skill was activated instantly!
