Chapter 1682: Prying Into the Dark (2/2)

Wisp after wisp of his star power and soul power flew into the fragments that had been separated from the Magnetic Star Crystal in his hand and refined into Fragmentary Stars. “Perhaps I can pry into the darkness with the help of these Fragmentary Stars. Perhaps my Star Eyes will work too.”

FIZZ! FIZZ!

Clusters of twinkling starlight flew from Nie Tian’s eyes and descended towards those mountains in the Realm of Shadow Devil.

Flying down with them were the Fragmentary Stars he had just forged and infused with his refined star power and soul power.

Intangible and shapeless, Star Eyes could be used to detect souls. Fragmentary Stars, however, could be used to attack material objects. Both of them had profound connections to his star power sub-soul.

“Star Eyes!”

Dou Tianchen’s eyes lit up as he released his Star Eyes as Nie Tian had.

The others saw them casting secret spells in attempts to pry into the Dark Abyss. After a moment of hesitation, they went into action as well.

All sorts of glowing spheres, soul power-infused crystals, and spiritual tools with soul connections to them whizzed down towards the Dark Abyss.

POOH! POOH! POOH!

However, many of them burst like balloons before they could even reach the entrance to the Dark Abyss.

The Star Eyes and Fragmentary Stars cast down by those from the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, the silver streak of Heaven-purging Divine Light released by Yu Suying, the void medium created by Ji Yuanquan, the cluster of corpse fire released by Feng Beiluo, and the golden feather cast down by Dylan all exploded midway.

Even Nie Tian’s Star Eyes burst and vanished.

He let out a muffled groan, feeling as if someone had hammered his chest a few times.

However, the Fragmentary Stars he had made by infusing the star core fragments he had separated from the Magnetic Star Crystal with his star and soul power were pulled by some power as they fell, and vanished into the dark pit.

He immediately lost his connection to them.

Even Fan Tianze’s streak of refined sword light burst and perished midway.

He, who had entered the late God domain and come to high attainments in the Dao of the sword, exclaimed in surprise. Then, countless streams of sword light that were running through his meridians suddenly gathered to his fingertip, which he then pointed at the darkness and let out a snort.

WHOOSH!

A streak of sword light that was even fiercer than the last one shot down, carrying a heaven-rending, earth-destroying will.

All of a sudden, a brown branch stretched out of the true darkness beyond the flowing lights and pierced straight upwards.

With a boom, Fan Tianze’s streak of sword light exploded again.

The sword light split into countless tiny sparks, all of which carried bits of fierce sword intent. However, they quickly died out like a large shoal of fish that were poisoned.

At the same time, a hint of cyan quietly emerged on Fan Tianze’s fingertip.

Fan Tianze’s expression flickered drastically as a torrential sword intent burst forth from within him. Everyone was surprised to see him activating his God domain and attacking that finger with numerous illusory swords.

Only after a while did the cyan slowly fade from his fingertip.

Fan Tianze took a deep breath and slowly recovered from his state of shock. “That was close.”

“That was the Ghost Grass,” Mu Biqiong, the Holy Daughter of the Bliss Mountain Sect, said faintly. “It’s harder for spiritual and devilish plants to upgrade than living beings. Their upgrade requires more time and is more reliant on opportunities.

“It’s said that the Ghost Grass was transformed from the discarnate soul of a deceased Netherspirit grand monarch, who referred to himself as Grand Monarch Ghostly Spirit. He lived in a time before Grand Monarch Heavenly Spirit. It appears that it was Grand Monarch Heavenly Spirit who killed him.

“Only after his death did that Ghost Grass appear.”

“How do you know all that?” The Snow Devil asked in surprise.

“I have two coexisting flowers growing inside of me,” Mu Biqiong answered.

“Oh, I see.”
