Chapter 1351: Heavenly Stars Flower (2/2)
“Hmm?!”
His soul connection with the Heavenly Stars Flower allowed him to suddenly sense a cluster of exceptionally strong starlight in another domain!
RUMBLE!
His mind shook, and a curious scene presented itself in one of the Heavenly Stars Flower’s petals.
That petal seemed to turn into a clear mirror.
It was a scene of Luo Wanxiang’s All Manifestations Star Banner floating and channeling star power from its surrounding stars in an area of the starry river that was wreathed in a faint cyan mist.
Apparently, Luo Wanxiang was strengthening his All Manifestations Star Banner with the star power in that area.
A fleet of Phantasm starships were berthed nearby like a shoal of fish. Grand Monarch Dark Nether, who he had met once, was casting some bloodline magic next to Luo Wanxiang, as if to provide him with assistance.
“Grand Monarch Dark Nether! Luo Wanxiang!” Nie Tian gave a cunning laugh. “Who would have thought that the Nine Stars Flower would have such a wondrous use after transforming into the Heavenly Stars Flower! Perhaps the fact that I can sense and spy on him through it has something to do with the fact that I devoured and refined Luo Wanxiang’s Nine Stars Flower!”
“Nie Tian!” Hou Chulan suddenly exclaimed. “How come that petal of your Nine Stars Flower is reflecting Luo Wanxiang’s image? What’s going on?”
Nie Tian snapped out of his daze, and realized that she was approaching him.
Even separated by the boundless starry river, Grand Monarch Dark Nether, who was also included in the image in the petal, suddenly noticed something and exclaimed, “Who’s there?”
BOOM!
The image in the sparkling petal exploded.
Nie Tian immediately realized that the Phantasm grand monarch had noticed that he was spying on them, and thus destroyed the connection between the Heavenly Stars Flower and Luo Wanxiang or his All Manifestations Star Banner with a mighty soul magic.
Nie Tian let out a cold snort and said, “Luo Wanxiang is colluding with Grand Monarch Dark Nether of the Phantasms. They’ve met in the starry river between the Domain of Heaven Python and the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries. From the look of it, they’ve finished assembling their troops, and are ready for their impending invasion.”
Hou Chulan floated to him and said, “White Rose’s Star Hunters have informed us of such news already. That didn’t surprise me. But what’s the matter with your Nine Stars Flower? It’s clearly different from the other Nine Stars Flowers of your sect.”
“It has advanced from the Earth Cultivated grade to the Heaven Nourished grade,” Nie Tian said, smiling.
“What? Spiritual materials like Nine Stars Flowers can upgrade too? How come I’ve never heard of such a thing?” Hou Chulan exclaimed in shock.
WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
At this moment, the ninety-nine stars in Nie Tian’s star domain started moving following brand new tracks. The Sea of Illusory Stars spun madly.
The Heavenly Stars Flower seemed to be behind such changes.
Nie Tian’s star domain seemed to rapidly turn into a vortex of streaming stars.
A strange gravitational force was suddenly born, and started attracting Luo Wanxiang and his All Manifestations Star Banner.
In another domain.
The All Manifestations Star Banner was floating in the void, absorbing star power to recover its full might.
With Grand Monarch Dark Nether’s assistance, the speed at which Luo Wanxiang recovered his strength seemed to be pushed to the limit.
All of a sudden, the star power he had expended great effort to channel from the surroundings stars poured madly out of him before he could even refine it fully.
“AHH!” Luo Wanxiang cried in pain, blood flying from the corners of his eyes.
Meanwhile...
Having received Dong Li’s messages, Wei Lai, Dou Tianchen, Fang Yuan, Wang Meijia, and a few others from the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace arrived in the Realm of Maelstrom through teleportation.
As soon as they set foot in the Realm of Maelstrom, before they could even ask about the latest situation, they cast their gazes skywards.
Wei Lai and the three Sons of the Stars who practiced star incantations instantly felt an overly strong attractive force, which seemed to be pulling at their star power cores in their spiritual seas.
Even their bodies seemed to be about to escape their control and rise into the starry river.
“Who’s in the starry river?” Wei Lai exclaimed in astonishment.
“It’s Nie Tian,” Jing Feiyang answered with a plain tone. “He’s practicing cultivation outside the Realm of Maelstrom, preparing for Gupi’s arrival.”
“But he, he...” Before Fang Yuan, whose cultivation base was the weakest of the four, could finish, he flew uncontrollably into the heavens.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Lai and the others also rose into the starry river one after another through the well-like heavens in the Realm of Maelstrom.
Their strange behavior caught the attention of the God domain and many Saint domain experts in the Realm of Maelstrom.
All of a sudden, streaks of glorious light shot up into the starry river like a reverse waterfall.
Soon, people reached the floating meteor where Nie Tian was practicing cultivation, and saw the peculiar Heavenly Stars Flower in his star domain.
