Chapter 179: Three Fragmentary Stars (1/2)

The starlight that was pouring down from the ceiling of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace wasn’t limitless.

It wasn’t very long before the shiny, silver light stopped falling.

At that time, Nie Tian was surprised to discover that there were three fragmentary stars in his soul.

Within his soul, all three of them hung high in the sky, shining with bright light. Not only was the psychic power they contained incomparably pure and condensed, they also carried the profound might of stars.

The existence of the three fragmentary stars made Nie Tian’s soul seem full of mysteries and even slightly resemble the vast starry river.

When the starlight stopped falling, Nie Tian gradually awoke from his cultivation.

At that time, his understandings of the first part of the Fragmentary Star Incantation was still limited to the method to attract starlight into his soul, and he was fairly certain that he would have to further explore its secrets in the future.

As soon as he snapped open his eyes, he felt enlivened; both his spiritual power and flesh power had fully recovered.

Furthermore, after the three fragmentary stars took form in his soul, his psychic power had also reached an unprecedentedly high level!

He immediately looked towards the Heaven stage area and found that the fight between the two was already over.

The losing party had been torn into pieces, scattered around on the floor, while his head was lying meters away from the rest of his body.

It was a horrible scene.

The winner, on the other hand, was sitting among the severed limbs, wreathed in a strong, bloody aura. Face pale, eyes narrowed, he was gathering the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth to gradually restore his strength.

“The fight is over…” Nie Tian immediately rose to his feet and sent a wisp of his psychic awareness into the ten floating energy balls around him.

Without the slightest hesitation, he dashed towards the river of seven-colored light, as he had been waiting for this moment.

At the same time, he used his psychic power to manipulate the ten energy balls to follow him and cross that river into the adjacent area.

The moment he stepped into the seven-colored light river, he seemed to set off some hidden restrictive spell of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace.

All of a sudden, numerous beams of bright light, along with an examining and judging aura, shot out of the light river and enveloped him in the blink of an eye.

It seemed that the hexagram within the Heaven Gate pattern on Nie Tian’s hand had sensed the action of the restrictive spell, and immediately started to shine with dazzling starlight.

Almost simultaneously, the examining aura in the seven-colored light disappeared.

Nie Tian instantly felt a sense of relief and then steadily walked forward in the miraculous river that was filled with light and energy.

The ten energy balls, which he had condensed with the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth in the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, followed him into seven-colored light river.

Since the energy within those balls shared the same source as the energy in the light river, they weren’t rejected and no examining aura flew anywhere near them.

One after another, all the energy balls slowly followed Nie Tian across the seven-colored river.

Originally, the powerful expert sitting amongst his opponent’s severed limbs didn’t even notice Nie Tian, the only survivor from the Lesser Heaven stage area. Only when he sensed that someone had crossed the seven-colored light river did he look over and catch sight of Nie Tian.

Before that, he had focused all his attention on the Greater Heaven stage area, where he saw only two survivors: Su Lin’s martial uncle and Tang Yang from the Realm of Dark Underworld.

At that time, their fight had reached a critical moment in which a winner was about to be born.

Knowing that he wouldn’t be able to cross the restrictive river into the Lesser Heaven stage area even though he had already obtained the middle part of the Fragmentary Star Incantation, he had long since given up the idea of snatching the first part of the incantation.

He knew that he would only be able to challenge the survivor of the Greater Heaven stage area and try his luck with obtaining the final part of the incantation with his Heaven stage strength.

Since he was familiar with the rules within the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, he had set his mind on the Greater Heaven stage expert from the Heaven Palace sect and completely ignored Nie Tian.

The final part of the Fragmentary Star Incantation had become his sole focus, so he was very surprised with Nie Tian’s arrival.As a matter of fact, he had expected that someone from the Lesser Heaven stage area might enter his area. However, he had expected that person to be Su Lin.
