Chapter 178: Soul Refining Magic! (1/2)

All the Heaven Sparks rapidly merged with each other on the back of Nie Tian’s hand.

The numerous magical symbols in the Heaven Sparks also realigned, presenting the readable and complete first part of the Fragmentary Star Incantation.

It wasn’t long before all the Heaven Sparks in Nie Tian’s Heaven Gate pattern merged and turned into a hexagram.

The hexagram was located in the center of the Heaven Gate pattern, emanating a bright glow, within which lay all the realigned ancient symbols.

With a thought, Nie Tian sent a wisp of his psychic awareness into the hexagram.

He saw a large number of ancient symbols written neatly in the sky within the hexagram, almost like an unfurled bamboo scroll.

Without any hesitation, he started to read it with his psychic power.

However, it wasn’t very long before he had the feeling that he had over consumed his psychic power and had to retract his psychic awareness from the hexagram.

Although he had retracted the psychic power that he had used to invade Su Lin’s mind before she was dragged out of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, he found that he had consumed a large portion of his psychic power reading the first part of the Fragmentary Star Incantation.

With furrowed eyebrows, he looked towards the Heaven stage area and the Greater Heaven stage area to find that their fights were still going on.

Only two people were still alive in the Heaven stage area. Both of them had wounds and blood all over their body. From the look of it, whoever the winner would be, he wouldn’t be in a much better situation than the defeated one.

Further off in the Greater Heaven stage area, Tang Yang and another cultivator were still attacking the powerful expert from the Heaven Palace sect together.

The Greater Heaven stage expert who Su Lin had referred to as her martial uncle looked somewhat tired after killing several of his enemies.

However, Tang Yang and the other cultivator seemed to be in much worse condition.

From what Nie Tian could tell, the winner in the Greater Heaven stage area would probably be Su Lin’s martial uncle.

“It seems I’d better forget about the final part of the Fragmentary Star Incantation.” Nie Tian muttered to himself as he retracted his gaze. “Perhaps, I’ll have a shot with the middle part.”

With these thoughts, he decided that he wouldn’t read the rest of the first part of the incantation.

In the Lesser Heaven stage area, where he was now the only person left, he once again used the technique that he had learned from the mysterious land to condense energy balls, and used the energy within them to replenish his spiritual and psychic power.

In the meantime, he took out several large chunks of spirit beast meat from his bracelet of holding and wolfed them down, so as to restore his peak state within the least amount of time.

He planned to wait for the right time and cross the seven-colored river into the Heaven stage area the moment one of them died.

He believed that he would only have a chance to snatch the middle part of the incantation from a Heaven stage cultivator when he was still weak from killing his opponent.

If the winner was given even a little time to recuperate with medicinal pills and the rich spiritual energy in the air, the chance of him getting the middle part of the incantation would be very slim.

PHEW! PHEW!

The intense spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth rapidly condensed into an energy ball as soon as Nie Tian cast the spell.

Just as he was about to absorb the condensed spiritual energy within it into his spiritual sea and nourish his soul with it, he suddenly noticed something.

Looking up, he saw that numerous rays of starlight were shooting out of the ceiling of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace.

It was the same kind of light that had shone on the mysterious patterns on the palace walls and made them bright and dazzling.

However, the Qi warriors with different cultivation bases in the three areas had already used their psychic power to channel all the mysterious patterns into their Heaven Sparks.

Therefore, there wasn’t a single pattern left on the walls now.

Upon a closer look, Nie Tian realized that the starlight that was shooting out of the mysterious river of stars was actually coming towards where he was standing.

At that time, Nie Tian felt a bright light also shooting up from below. He looked down and saw the hexagram in his Heaven Gate shining like a star.
