Chapter 145: Star Remains and Undergoing Tribulation Boat
As the star-falling boat tore through the Void Realm like an arrow, countless Star Remains rained down like a torrential downpour. Lu Qingyang’s Nascent Soul Avatar leaned leisurely against the bow, a rusted copper coin on his fingertip burning like a torch with an eerie blue Xing Jie Dan Fire: “Su Jiejie, this boat is truly elegant. If there were a few more jars of drunken immortal brew in the cabin, it would save Mr. Lu a lot of money on buying wine.”
Nine-tailed celestial fox true fire suddenly coiled around the copper coin like a fire Dragon, and Su Meiniang’s Void Refining Dao domain, etched with Qingqiu inscriptions in the Void Realm, shimmered with mysterious light: “Little Lord, this stench of money…” The golden bell at the tip of her tail shattered three Star Remains that assailed them like meteors. Within the fragments, star patterns of Leng Yuehan’s Dao body being eroded emerged, “I’m afraid it will attract Star Ruins Vengeful Spirits!” Before she finished speaking, the boat suddenly drifted a thousand zhang sideways, swept by the torrent of Star Remains like a kite with a broken string. The bronze boat planks groaned in pain.
Leng Yuehan’s Soul Transformation Dao domain unfurled like a blooming ice flower, and the Taiyin Soul Slaughtering Wheel, like a cold star, froze half of the Star Remains. Ice Soul Sword Qi pierced through the boat’s stern defense array like lightning, solidifying into a phantom of the Guanghan Palace Incomplete Manual in the Void Realm, like a mysterious palace: “Netherworld Filth!” The characters on the Incomplete Manual suddenly grew like vines, forming a star shifting array. The Ice Soul Essence floating at the array’s core seemed to echo the eroding patterns on her sleeve like a shining pearl, “They actually refined the Guanghan Secret Scripture into the core of a Star Puppet!”
In the Void Realm, nine star traces suddenly appeared, as if torn open by some force. Immediately after, three Star Puppets, clad in ancient immortal armor, emerged from them, treading on blazing flames. These three Star Puppets had a majestic Aura, exuding a chilling presence.
The leading Star Puppet’s pupils actually shot out Chaos star marrow, as brilliant as the stars in the Universe. He tightly held a bronze ge, which emanated an ancient and mysterious Aura, as if containing endless power.
When he wielded the bronze ge, an astonishing scene occurred—the stars of the heavens actually shifted with his movements, as if the entire starry sky was under his control. He chanted: “Undergoing Tribulation boat passing through…” As he spoke, a cluster of Xing Jie Dan Fire suddenly ignited at the tip of the bronze ge. This Xing Jie Dan Fire quickly condensed into a partial Pill Formula, on which the words “Nine Revolutions Xing Jie Dan” were faintly visible.
“We need to keep the Guanghan Dao body as a guide!” The Star Puppet’s voice was cold and emotionless, as if this was a trivial matter.
However, before he finished speaking, an angry shout rang out: “What big talk!” It was Lu Qingyang. His Nascent Soul suddenly exploded, transforming into a chaotic mist. Within this mist, rust quickly condensed into three thousand bronze chains, like a group of ferocious venomous snakes, directly Pounce the Star Puppet.
When the chains pierced through the Star Puppet’s armor like venomous snakes, something astonishing happened—the star patterns on that partial Pill Formula, like twinkling stars in the night sky, actually resonated with the Dao of the rebirth monument on the Undergoing Tribulation boat. This resonance, like a great bell, deafened all, making the star patterns on the Pill Formula even clearer, as if revealing an unknown secret to the world.
“This guide…” From within the mist, a hand like white jade reached out, holding a copper coin sword, its blade shimmering with mysterious light. This hand gently waved, and the copper coin sword shot out like lightning, lifting Leng Yuehan’s thin, cicada-wing-like veil, revealing her peerless, captivating beauty. Leng Yuehan’s left eye’s Cold Abyss Dao lines was instantly activated, and a cold light shot towards the Star Puppet like a meteor, revealing the Star Puppet’s hideous true form. To everyone’s astonishment, transparent Ice Soul Remnant Souls of Guanghan Palace Disciples flowed from the gaps in the Star Puppet’s armor, as if these Star Puppets were driven by the unyielding Souls of Guanghan Palace Disciples.
“Netherworld evil spawn!” Leng Yuehan roared, fiercely brandishing the Taiyin Soul Slaughtering Wheel, completely crushing the star patterns on that partial Pill Formula. However, at this moment, the ice crystals on the wheel’s rim suddenly grew the bronze pillar patterns of the Star-Falling Ruins. These patterns seemed to have some connection with the secret transmissions of Guanghan Palace.
“How dare you profane the Guanghan Secret Transmission!” Leng Yuehan’s voice was filled with anger and disdain.
Su Meiniang’s nine tails coiled around the boat’s mast, and her Void Refining Stage spatial Law tore open the Star Puppet’s encirclement. The tip of her tail, burning with Sky-Burning Fox Flame, condensed into the Qingqiu rebirth monument. The star marrow flowing in the monument’s inscription was actually of the same Origin as Lu Qingyang’s copper rust: “Little Lord, do you know…” As the monument’s shadow enveloped them, the Star Puppets’ movements suddenly became sluggish, “The star marrow in the pupils of these Puppets is a supreme treasure for refining Lifebound Treasures!”
The remaining netherworld ghost fire of the Soul Devouring Sect Master suddenly ignited at the bottom of the boat, and a white bone altar rose from the torrent of Star Remains. A bronze cauldron, suspended at the altar’s peak, erupted with Mahayana power. The star patterns on the cauldron depicted Leng Yuehan plunging her Ice Soul Sword into the core of the Star-Falling Ruins: “You ants…” As the cauldron lid lifted, the Primordial Xuanhuang Qi gushing out actually condensed into a heaven severing sword sheath, “How dare you covet the Nine Revolutions Star Tribulation!”
Lu Qingyang’s Nascent Soul Avatar reformed, and the rusted copper coin sword suddenly melted into a torrent of star marrow. Chaos Dao lines condensed into a Taotie Dharma Idol at his seven orifices: “The Old Ghost is quite thoughtful…” The moment the torrent coiled around the bronze cauldron, the Xing Jie Dan Fire gushing from within the cauldron actually burned through the Void Realm, “He even prepared the Alchemy Pill Furnace for Mr. Lu!”
Leng Yuehan’s wide sleeves billowed, and the stripped-away star shifting array transformed into an ice crystal cage. As the Taiyin Soul Slaughtering Wheel crushed two Star Puppets, Guanghan Ice Soul Essence suddenly flew out from the shattered armor: “So that’s it!” When the Ice Soul Essence touched the eroding patterns on her sleeve, it actually manifested an illusion of an ice palace deep within the Star-Falling Ruins in the Void Realm, “This Star Puppet is collecting…”
Before she finished speaking, the third Star Puppet suddenly self-destructed. Netherworld ghost fire, following the torrent of star marrow, burned towards the boat. Su Meiniang’s golden bell at the tip of her tail shattered three thousand li of the Void Realm: “Soul-Devouring Old Ghost!” The rebirth monument inscription suddenly reversed, refining the ghost fire into a star-track compass, “You actually hid your Remnant Soul in the Star Puppet’s core!”
The Ice Soul Essence, tightly wrapped by Lu Qingyang’s chaotic mist, was like a sealed treasure. Rust-like star traces, like mysterious runes, etched Pill lines onto the surface of the Essence: “Fairy Leng, this dowry…” The mist, like a ferocious giant beast, condensed into a bronze Pill Furnace, opening its gaping maw to devour the Xing Jie Dan Fire, “Mr. Lu will gladly accept it!” When the furnace lid lifted, the gushing Pill Qi roared like a giant Dragon in the Void Realm, condensing into the complete Cultivation Technique of the “Guanghan Ice Soul Art.”
At the end of the torrent of Star Remains, a bronze heavenly gate suddenly rose. The chains entwined around the gate rings, like sleeping giant Dragons, resonated with the Origin of the rebirth monument on the boat. The Remnant Soul of the Soul Devouring Sect Master flickered in and out of view in the gate’s crack. The Dao platform, condensed from netherworld ghost fire, was like a furnace melting the heaven severing sword sheath: “Do you know…” The star patterns on the Dao platform, like twinkling stars in the night sky, suddenly reflected Lu Qingyang’s bronze fate deep within his Nascent Soul, “This star-falling boat was originally the key to opening the heavens!” “Noisy!” Leng Yuehan pointed her fingers like a knife, severing half of her wide sleeve. The stripped-away star array, like a surging ice river, transformed into a long river of Ice Soul.
The Taiyin Soul Slaughtering Wheel, like a giant wheel crushing all, crushed the Dao platform, and the bronze heavenly gate suddenly rained down star-falling tribulation lightning: “Netherworld Filth…” The moment the tribulation lightning touched the Ice Soul Essence, it actually manifested the Guanghan Mirror deep within the ice palace in the Void Realm, like a bright, pure moon, “How dare you wield the heavenly gate!” Su Meiniang’s nine tails, like nine nimble venomous snakes, plunged into the boiling torrent of star marrow. Her Void Refining Dao domain, like a giant Alchemy furnace, refined half of the tribulation lightning into rebirth monument inscriptions: “Little Lord, quickly…” The golden bell at the tip of her tail, like a clear chime, shattered the last wisp of netherworld ghost fire, “Awaken the heavenly gate with your bronze fate!”
Lu Qingyang’s Nascent Soul Avatar suddenly dematerialized. Rust-like star traces, like heavenly star locks, tightly locked the heavenly gate. Fragments of the copper coin sword, like a sharp dagger, pierced into the gate’s crack. The Chaos Mother Qi gushing from within the gate, like a surging river, actually condensed into the complete Heaven Severing Sword: “Two Fairies…” The star patterns on the sword’s blade, like twinkling stars in the night sky, suddenly resonated with the heavenly secrets of the ice palace’s Guanghan Mirror, “Is this toll money enough?” The bronze heavenly gate roared open, and the core of the Star-Falling Ruins behind the gate, like a giant treasure trove, gushed with nine-colored auspicious light.
Leng Yuehan’s Taiyin Soul Slaughtering Wheel, like a cold vortex, froze the tribulation lightning. The Ice Soul Essence, like a meteor, plunged into the Guanghan Mirror: “Netherworld Karma…” Deep within the ice palace reflected in the mirror, three Xing Jie Dan embryos, like shining pearls, floated, “This palace will personally sever it!”
The Remnant Soul of the Soul Devouring Sect Master let out one last mournful shriek, like a malevolent ghost claiming a life. Netherworld ghost fire, like venomous snakes, condensed into Dao Tribulation chains, wildly entangling the boat. Su Meiniang’s nine-tailed Sky-Burning Fox Flame, like a volcanic eruption, surged violently. The rebirth monument inscriptions, like the skillful hands of an Alchemist, refined the chains into dazzling star marrow: “Little Lord, you must remember…” Within the fox flame, the phantom of the Qingqiu blood sacrifice altar flickered in and out of view, as if telling something, “You owe this concubine three drops of Soul Transformation essence blood!” The moment the star-falling boat broke through the heavenly gate, chaotic star rain, like countless stars falling to the mortal realm, descended in the Void Realm.
The copper rust on Lu Qingyang’s Nascent Soul surface suddenly peeled off, revealing the bronze fate within, shimmering with star marrow light, like a dazzling star: “This transaction…” The copper coin sword, condensed from rust, was as sharp as lightning, effortlessly shattering the last Star Puppet, “has made me rich!”
