Chapter 1009 - 323: Power of the Stars—Body United with the Stars (Part 4)

"No wonder they say cultivation is about seizing resources. I didn’t expect that even after becoming a great cultivator at the Integration Stage, there’s still a competition for all kinds of resources.

I used to think that all Shen Rufeng took from the Black Water Star Realm was Qi Fortune. Now I understand, maybe the Shen Family also has their eyes on the Power of the Stars within the Black Water Star Realm."

Ling Feng realized in hindsight.

"Hoo!"

Immediately, he performed the breathing and exhaling according to the Star Breathing Technique.

With the help of this special Breathing Technique, Ling Feng felt that with each breath, tiny star particles were integrating into his body, allowing his physical form to continuously evolve.

In the past, when cultivating the Breathing Technique in South City, the Spiritual Qi was like Replenishing Liquid, nourishing and evolving the physical form. Using the Super Divine Breathing Technique, directly absorbing Laws and Life Force, was like the Laws were tempering and damaging the body, while Life Force was nourishing and humiliating the body, thus causing the body to evolve.

Now, by absorbing Star Power through the Star Breathing Technique to enhance the physical form, it’s as if tiny star particles are being cleansed and then embedded into the bloodlines, even the bones or flesh with the aid of the Breathing Technique.

Although the bloodlines, flesh, even the bones, and essence, spirit, and energy are armored, the pain within cannot be casually alleviated by one’s own Life Force.

It’s worth knowing that when Ling Feng cultivated the Super Divine Breathing Technique to Perfection, his body, like Zhang Maoyang’s, could withstand planetary impacts.

If he rushed out at full speed, he could shatter a small asteroid, remaining unharmed.

Yet, such a terrifying defense power was unable to resist the tiny star particles, leaving his body riddled with countless holes, while he remained in constant pain.

Imagine facing a great cultivator at the Integration Stage head-on; a single palm strike containing powerful Star Power fluctuations could shatter one’s form, no matter how strong one’s Law Power was.

No wonder they say only upon becoming a great cultivator at the Integration Stage does one stand a greater chance of entering the Ancient Moon Sect for cultivation.

It turns out that a great cultivator at the Integration Stage, who masters Star Power, is so formidable.

Ling Feng seemed to see once more the hideous and terrifying face of Shen Rufeng, imagining how frustrated and angry Shen Rufeng must have felt when Ling Feng broke his Laws.

Because even if Ling Feng grasped all the Laws and Life Force of the Black Water Star Realm, Shen Rufeng could still kill him with one palm strike.

Thinking of this.

Bam!

Ling Feng couldn’t control it any longer and collapsed to the ground.

His commotion didn’t affect the surrounding students who were breathing and exhaling through the Star Breathing Technique.

In the Elite Class, strength improves quickly not only because they can access the Star Breathing Technique, but because the Elite Class is enveloped by a powerful Array that helps them absorb more Star Power, allowing their bodies to evolve.

This is something hard to achieve outside.

So every student who enters the Elite Class for cultivation, no matter how much pain they feel during breathing and exhaling, will grit their teeth and persist, eagerly cultivating, never missing any moment.

If their bodies weren’t too weak to always stay in a state of absorbing Star Power, no one would stay away from here, let alone end up like Ling Feng, collapsing to the ground shortly after beginning breathing and exhaling.

"Is that all?"

Peng Meilin hadn’t anticipated it.

She didn’t think anyone would waste the precious time of cultivating in the Elite Class to play the clown just to get her or anyone else’s attention.

Ling Feng’s current pain and his state of struggling on the ground were completely genuine.

As a Tribulation Crossing Immortal, she had also cultivated the Star Breathing Technique and even used it to give her physical form strong Star Power, becoming one with the Stars.

She understood the difficulty and pain involved more than anyone present.

She clearly knew that the more one cultivates the Star Breathing Technique, the more painful it becomes, with no method to alleviate it, and the higher the level of cultivation, the greater the suffering endured.

Because a higher level means absorbing more Star Power.

Only when this Breathing Technique is cultivated to Ultimate does the pain reduce, as the extreme mastery of the Star Breathing Technique allows one’s body to instinctively resist the impact of Star Power and even convert the pain, sparing the body from torture.

Meanwhile, those who cultivate the Star Breathing Technique to Ultimate have bodies so strong they can merge with Stars.

They can even harness Star Power.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say they possess the power of a quasi-great cultivator at the Integration Stage.

This is the terrifying aspect of mastering Star Power.

Now, Ling Feng can’t even endure the first step. How can he in the future cultivate the Star Breathing Technique to Ultimate, let his body merge with Stars, and make Star Power his own?

Perhaps, Divinity Transformation is Ling Feng’s bottleneck or ceiling.

However, for a Basic Star Domain Life like Ling Feng, reaching this milestone already wasn’t easy. Peng Meilin believed Ling Feng shouldn’t be given too much pressure or attention, to avoid him going astray and losing direction in cultivation.

Therefore, seeing Ling Feng collapse on the ground and his cries getting weaker, until only gasps remained, Peng Meilin didn’t blame Ling Feng, nor did she tell him to get up and continue cultivating, or stop pretending to be dead.

Instead, she waved her hand and sent a cup of Life Replenishing Liquid to Ling Feng.
