Chapter 562 (2/2)
Xiang Shaoyun felt like it was time to stop showing off, but his nine stars suddenly erupted with a ma.s.sive suction force, absorbing a certain power hidden within the a.s.sessment stone. To be precise, his stars were absorbing the power of the nine stars in the sky. The stone was merely serving as a medium.
The rays of light s.h.i.+ning from the sky started undergoing some changes. One of the nine pure and unblemished rays suddenly turned purple, as if it had turned into a bolt of lightning. One of the hidden old fellows cried out in excitement as if he had won a lottery, ”He cultivates the power of lightning! Splendid!”
He had barely celebrated when a different ray of light turned into a golden ray.
”He cultivates the power of gold as well? Excellent!” the middle-aged man exclaimed in joy.
It was understandable that someone with such a freakish talent would cultivate two powers. But soon they saw red, gray, green, blue, yellow, white, and black rays appearing one after another. The rays of light looked incredibly wondrous, presenting an exceedingly enchanting sight. The other eight stones in the area were affected as well. A resonance formed between them as they started s.h.i.+ning brightly, accepting the incoming rays of light.
Immediately, a power that greatly resembled both the natural spiritual energy in the air and the astral energy of the stars started spreading out. The surroundings became flooded with energy. The old trees in the area grew new leaves, the spiritual herbs advanced into the next tier, the flowers instantly bloomed, and the numerous demonic beasts all stopped everything they were doing. They released their demonic cores, allowing their cores to be nourished.
Even the young geniuses in the area could sense their cultivation growing rapidly. Those who were near breakthrough were suddenly hit with a sudden bout of inspiration, as if they were going to break through at any moment. As for Xiang Shaoyun, he sank into a unique state. He felt incredibly comfortable, as if he was soaking in a hot spring or bathing under the first ray of the sun in the morning.
His nine stars started growing at an inconceivable speed. Even more unbelievable was the nine-colored energy in his astral cosmos sea. It started growing rapidly, and Money started devouring it hungrily. Under this process, Money started undergoing some changes as well.
The vicious tiger gold lotus, blaze flower, ghostbloom, and the other plants in his astral cosmos sea started s.h.i.+ning with a glistening radiance. Not only had new buds sprouted out of them, they had even advanced to a higher tier. Everyone was stunned, and n.o.body could explain everything that was happening.
None noticed that beyond the sky, an additional star had appeared, its appearance vaguely discernible. The new star was completely covered by the nine colors, and it seemed like it was absorbing the power contained in the nine colors in a completely concealed state. Not even the experts at the Dragon Phoenix Academy could detect that star.
At the same time that star appeared, the powers s.h.i.+ning upon the world below turned berserk. The nine stones suddenly exploded, and Xiang Shaoyun who was caught by surprise was sent flying. Everyone panicked, thinking that they were under attack. They started scattering everywhere in panic.
As for the nine overseers and the disciples standing near the stones, they suffered the brunt of the impact. It was unknown if they were still alive or not. With the explosion of the nine a.s.sessment stones, the nine stars in the sky vanished noiselessly. The nine colors vanished, and peace returned, as if nothing had happened.
