Chapter 174: Feng Jiuge Awakens the Power of the Star God!

Next, ‍‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍it was time to look at the Demon Realm.

With ‍‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍a thought from Gu Yan, the image within the Haotian Mirror shifted. The scenery of the Spirit Realm faded away, replaced by a dark crimson world.

This ‍‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍was a world entirely different from the Spirit Realm.

Mountains, rivers, vegetation, and living beings all carried a suffocating aura of slaughter.

Gu Yan’s gaze passed through layers of space and landed upon a secluded valley.

There, a black-robed man knelt half-upright upon the ground, crimson lightning flickering endlessly around his body, unstable like a candle flame swaying in the wind.

It was Feng Jiuge.

Beside him lay another person whose aura at the peak of Tribulation Crossing had already become utterly chaotic.

It was the Human Race mighty figure of the Demon Realm, Chu Xiu.

The condition of both men was extremely miserable.

Although Feng Jiuge possessed the Low-grade Connate Spiritual Treasure, the Shattered Stars Sword, given by Gu Yan—

And also wore that divine robe capable of resisting any offensive attack below the Human Immortal Realm—

It could not withstand the fact that his opponent was not an existence this world should possess.

That Blood Slaughter Ancestor was originally an avatar projected into the Demon Realm by a Golden Immortal Realm devil from the Immortal Realm.

He likewise possessed a Low-grade Connate Spiritual Treasure.

And that was not all.

From time to time, the old devil could unleash offensive divine abilities surpassing the peak of Tribulation Crossing, even reaching the Human Immortal Realm and True Immortal Realm.

Under such dimensionality reduction strikes, even the divine robe gradually became unable to endure.

Of course, the Blood Slaughter Ancestor’s actions were not without cost.

Every time he used power beyond the peak of Tribulation Crossing, heavenly tribulation would inevitably descend.

But who was the Blood Slaughter Ancestor?

He was a demon, a Demon Ancestor. He possessed countless secret arts and naturally had methods to offset the consequences.

One such method was consuming the bloodlines of his own descendants.

It must be known that many demon races in the Southern Region of the Demon Realm shared bloodline connections with the Blood Slaughter Ancestor.

Although countless had been slaughtered by Feng Jiouge over the years, just how vast was the Demon Realm?

The number Feng Jiuge killed did not even amount to one hair from nine oxen.

Thus, every time he unleashed great divine abilities, merely millions of demons died.

Demons possessed no compassion.

Especially not a Demon Ancestor.

They were merely lowly bloodlines. As long as he desired reproduction later, they could simply continue multiplying endlessly.

Naturally, the matter of the Blood Slaughter Ancestor projecting an avatar from the Immortal Realm into the Demon Realm to stir chaos had also been noticed by certain other old devils in the Immortal Realm.

These old devils were likewise Golden Immortal Realm experts and, like Blood Slaughter, belonged under the command of that Primordial Infinite World-Ending Heavenly Execution Great Demon Sovereign.

Thus, they could not really say much.

After all, the Great Demon Sovereign was an Immortal King—the sole peak Immortal King among the Demon Race today.

They merely sighed frequently, lamenting why they themselves had not been assigned the mission. Returning to the Demon Realm to act tyrannically would have been far too enjoyable.

Golden Immortals were indeed powerful and could find ways to project their avatars back into the Demon Realm.

But the Great Demon Sovereign had given orders that without his permission, no one was allowed to return to the Demon Realm.

The various Golden Immortal Demon Race experts did not know the reason, nor did they dare ask, much less disobey.

Returning to the main topic.

At this moment, within this valley in the Southern Region of the Demon Realm—

The Blood Slaughter Ancestor currently appeared as a white-haired demon woman, looking down arrogantly at Feng Jiuge and Chu Xiu.

She spoke, her voice carrying traces of amusement.

“Feng Jiuge, this sovereign will give you a path to live.”

She extended one finger and pointed toward Chu Xiu lying nearby.

“Kill him. This sovereign will forget past grievances and accept you as a personal disciple.”

“When you ascend to the Immortal Realm in the future, you may also obtain a promising future beneath this sovereign.”

Chu Xiu’s heart trembled upon hearing this, yet deep down he was not especially panicked.

He understood Feng Jiuge’s character clearly.

As expected, Feng Jiuge burst into loud laughter in the next moment.

The laughter echoed throughout the valley, filled with undisguised mockery.

“You devil actually think you’re worthy of accepting me as a disciple?”

Feng Jiuge struggled to rise to his feet, using the Shattered Stars Sword to support himself against the ground as he continued:

“You’re merely a beast wearing human skin. No—calling you a beast flatters you.”

“At least beasts know how to protect their young. But you? Just to block heavenly tribulation, you sacrifice millions of descendants without even blinking.”

“Such despicable, shameless, cold-blooded, and cruel conduct is something even the lowest worms in the Demon Realm could not accomplish.”

“I’ve indeed killed many demons during my years in the Demon Realm.”

“But compared to you, what does my slaughter amount to? Every time you make a move, millions die. Even all the demons I’ve killed combined aren’t enough to equal a fraction of one of your attacks.”

“With your kind of character, you think you’re worthy of taking disciples? Worthy of speaking of forgiveness?”

“No matter how insignificant I, Feng Jiuge, may be, I would never acknowledge a devil who treats his own descendants as consumable tools as my master.”

“If word spread, I’d probably disgrace the faces of eighteen generations of my ancestors.”

The Blood Slaughter Ancestor’s expression gradually darkened. Her white hair moved without wind as blood-colored patterns spread across her body. Demonic markings crawled across her cheeks and neck.

Clearly, she intended to unleash a great divine ability surpassing the peak of Tribulation Crossing and annihilate Feng Jiuge in one strike.

Yet Feng Jiouge showed not the slightest fear.

From being the orphan Zhou A’niu of Zhou Family Village in the Spirit Realm, to entering the Azure Wave Sect and receiving the name Feng Jiuge from Master Youhun as he stepped onto the immortal path—

Throughout this entire journey, he had never felt even the slightest regret.

Kill those who deserved killing.

Walk the path that deserved walking.

The demons ravaged the Human Race, so he slaughtered demons.

Even if he died here today, it merely meant this road had reached its end.

He recalled the appearance of Master Youhun teaching him techniques.

He recalled the sensation of his sword edge piercing flesh during these years of slaughtering demons.

Enough.

He felt his life had already been sufficiently splendid.

From a starving orphan to reaching this point today—

It was worth it.

Feng Jiuge closed his eyes. The Shattered Stars Sword in his hand emitted a faint trembling hum, as though bidding him a final farewell.

Within the Supreme Creation Lesser Luo Cave Heaven, inside the Hall of Longevity—

Gu Yan slightly furrowed his brows while the magic power within his hand was already poised to strike.

Yet before he acted, he sensed an aura quietly awakening within Feng Jiuge’s body.

That aura…

Gu Yan paused slightly before withdrawing his magic power.

Within the Demon Realm, inside the valley—

The Blood Slaughter Ancestor raised her hand. A blood-colored pillar of light erupted from her palm, carrying heaven-destroying might as it crushed toward Feng Jiuge and Chu Xiu.

That power had already far surpassed the peak of Tribulation Crossing. Even a Human Immortal present here would be annihilated in a single strike.

Chu Xiu closed his eyes.

Waiting for death.

Feng Jiuge did the same.

Yet at this very moment, he entered an extraordinary state.

The flow of all things in the world suddenly slowed.

The savage expression on the Blood Slaughter Ancestor’s face froze midair, while the advancing blood-colored light pillar slowed to the pace of a crawling snail.

At this instant, all color throughout the Demon Realm turned gray.

Between heaven and earth remained only deathly silence.

Feng Jiuge felt a strange power awakening within him.

That power did not come from the cultivation technique he practiced.

Nor did it come from the Shattered Stars Sword.

It came from somewhere deeper.

From the deepest part of his soul.

As though something had already been branded upon his soul before his reincarnation.

At this moment—

That thing awakened.

Above heaven and earth existed countless stars. Whether in the Mortal Realm of lesser worlds or the Spirit Realm and Demon Realm of middle worlds, the stars visible in the sky were merely projections of the stars of the Immortal Realm, not their true forms.

And every star in the Immortal Realm would naturally nurture a Star God.

Star Gods were incarnations of stellar will itself. By birth, they controlled the power of an entire star and stood among the highest existences within the Immortal Realm.

In his previous life, Feng Jiuge had been the Star God of Yinghuo Star.

A mighty expert at the Immortal King Realm.

It was merely because he had been banished into the mortal world by the Azure Emperor and forced into reincarnation, with everything from his previous life sealed deep within his soul.

Now, facing a great life-and-death tribulation, combined with years of slaughter and tempering within the Demon Realm, countless karmic convergences finally caused him to awaken a trace of Star God power.

Although still extremely weak, not even one ten-thousandth of his former life—

It was enough to resist the Blood Slaughter Ancestor before him.

Instantly, centered around Feng Jiuge, the world within a hundred-li radius underwent a sudden transformation.

All color was stripped away, leaving behind only gray and white.

The Blood Slaughter Ancestor’s blood-colored pillar of light entered this gray domain, its speed plummeting while its might visibly weakened.

Feng Jiuge opened his eyes.

Within his pupils reflected a crimson star.

The radiance of that star pierced through the dark crimson heavens of the Demon Realm and resonated with the true body of Yinghuo Star hidden in the unseen beyond.

He raised the Shattered Stars Sword.

Gray-white radiance wrapped around the sword body.

With merely a casual swing, the blood-colored pillar split apart from the center into two streams that roared past his sides, blasting two unfathomably deep holes into the mountain wall behind him.

The Blood Slaughter Ancestor froze.

Chu Xiu froze as well, opening his eyes in utter disbelief at the scene before him.

Feng Jiuge did not remain to fight.

He grabbed Chu Xiu from the ground as the Shattered Stars Sword carved a spatial rift through the void. Their figures instantly disappeared into it.

Within the valley, only the Blood Slaughter Ancestor remained standing motionlessly, blankly staring at the gray domain that had yet to dissipate completely.

She did not pursue them.

Not because she did not want to.

Because she did not dare.

That divine ability capable of stripping all color from heaven and earth was called Colorless Realm Divine Power.

Within the Immortal Realm, only mighty experts at the Immortal King Realm could wield it.

How could that brat possibly…

Countless thoughts flashed through the Blood Slaughter Ancestor’s mind before ultimately settling upon a terrifying possibility that chilled her spine.

Could it be that boy was actually a chess piece cast into the Demon Realm by some Immortal King Realm expert from the Immortal Realm?

If that were true, then her actions today would amount to slapping that Immortal King directly in the face.

The Blood Slaughter Ancestor inhaled deeply and decided she would no longer target Feng Jiuge in the future.

In any case, the matters assigned to her by the Great Demon Sovereign had nothing to do with Feng Jiuge.

As long as he did not proactively interfere with her affairs later, she would simply pretend this person did not exist.

Better fewer troubles than more.

She had no desire to offend a true Immortal King over a mere chess piece.
