Chapter 667 (2/2)
With his dark star full, he was forced to channel the energy into his bloodline instead, trying to further awaken his bloodline power. As his bloodline power grew, Xiang Shaoyun sensed that his Imperial Nether Clan talents were improving. He even awakened a new ability—Nethergate.
Nethergate was an extremely tricky ability to deal with, one that could be activated by gathering dark elemental devilish energy through his bloodline. It was capable of s.h.i.+fting an opponent's energy into the void, causing the opponent's attacks to be harmless. With enough strength, one could even banish an opponent into the void.
It was an ability that was supposed to only awaken after one reached the Devil Sovereign realm or above. For Xiang Shaoyun to awaken it now, it was evident his bloodline had been purified significantly.
Xiang Shaoyun was completely out of words. ”The Imperial Nether Clan is truly scary. Each ability is inconceivable. No wonder they are one of the Four Paramount Clans.”
He tried activating the ability, but even after using the entirety of his bloodline power and astral energy, he could only form a door as big as a head. The door was so small it couldn't even s.h.i.+ft a regular attack. Thus, it wouldn't be able to display his ability's incredible prowess.
Xiang Shaoyun understood that although he had awakened the Nethergate ability, his cultivation level was not high enough to display its true might. Instead of wasting his time thinking about it, he refocused on the clump of dark origin energy and tried to think of a way to absorb it.
”Right, since it can fight my willpower, I will try influencing it with my will, making it obey,” decided Xiang Shaoyun after thinking about it for a while.
And thus, he sat down cross-legged before the dark origin energy, trying to penetrate it with his consciousness. With the filthless soul at the level of a Sovereign, he was able to create a rather powerful pressure.
Since the dark origin energy was without an owner, its consciousness was rather pure and innocent. Soon, Xiang Shaoyun's consciousness penetrated inside, but he still couldn't store it away.
”What do I lack?” Xiang Shaoyun sank into confusion.
He tried activating his dark star, forming a resonance with the dark origin energy, before pulling with his consciousness. Finally, the dark origin energy reacted. It started enveloping Xiang Shaoyun, and it moved so fast he couldn't even escape in time.
He was trapped right in the middle of the clump, allowing him to sense the deeper truth of darkness. The energy also started permeating his body, forcefully entering his dark star, causing the star to expand rapidly. It spoiled the balance between his nine stars, and since he couldn't convert the excess energy into draconic aura, he had a feeling his dark star was on the verge of implosion.
”I refuse to believe I can't subdue you! Refine!” Xiang Shaoyun roared and channeled the excess energy into his astral cosmos sea, using it to enlarge the astral cosmos sea.
He also set his Nether Soul Domain free, completely trapping the dark origin energy within the domain before releasing all 8,000 of his ghostrunes. As the ghostrunes were of a similar origin with the Imperial Nether Clan, they also longed greatly for the dark origin energy. They started devouring the dark origin energy like crazy. Even his filthless soul benefited greatly.
