Changes In Firmament Star, Warship, The Immortal Progenies Are Coming
The threats of the gods were over.
Firmament Star was swiftly rebuilding its own. Meanwhile, the Crimson Sun Daoist Celestial and the Formation Daoist Celestial were busy researching new warship designs. Everything was going smoothly.
Firmament Star saw a period of peace that lasted at least half a year.
Within this period, drastic changes occurred in Firmament Star. Under Elder Ruyanâs leadership, most orthodoxies and nations heard about the tales of the Human King, and the entire planet was overwhelmed with shock.
Chu Kuangren was the Human King?!
This news caught most of Firmament Star off guard.
While several orthodoxies did not know what the Human King was all about, they were certainly familiar with Chu Kuangren, the most terrifying being to exist in the history of Firmament Star.
Most orthodoxies who had heard of the Human King were archaic orthodoxies, and they were the most astonished to learn that Chu Kuangren was the Human King.
After the orthodoxies recovered from their shock, next came the news of their integration into the empire.
Most of them did not have the power to decline such a request.
Initially, a handful of forces attempted to resist, especially those orthodoxies managed by an Emperor or two.
However, as eager as they were to rebel, it would only take one Daoist Celestial to interfere before they submitted.
Within a short half a year, most renowned orthodoxies in Firmament Star had yielded and agreed to be placed under the jurisdiction of the new empire.
While Firmament Star was undergoing a massive reformation.
In the Extraterritorial Region.
A warship was gradually being constructed in the vast space of the universe.
On deck, countless bright Daoist patterns flowed before Formation Daoist Celestial and the Crimson Sun Daoist Celestial while they were testing the warshipâs strength.
As rays of lights converged upon a cannon that was mounted on the forecastle of the warship, the surrounding spiritual power swarmed towards it.
The bore of the cannon glowed as lights spun near its muzzleâ¦
Spiritual power was being compressedâ¦
As the spiritual power reached the cannonâs limit, a beam of light shot out from the muzzle, penetrating straight into an uninhabited asteroid in the distance.
The beam went through the asteroid seamlessly before it continued traveling a vast amount of distance.
Wherever the beam traveled, the void around it crumbled, and destruction followed!
The penetrated asteroid imploded into a series of colorful explosions that painted the dark universe.
Soon, the energy of the beam gradually depleted as its light faded away.
However, the Formation Daoist Celestial and the Crimson Sun Daoist Celestial were still stunned.
âGulpâ¦â
The Crimson Sun Daoist Celestial gulped. âThis power has surpassed that of a peak-stage Minor Daoist Celestial. What an incredible display of power.â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Despite being one of the inventors of this warship, the Crimson Sun Daoist Celestial was still surprised by the warshipâs ability.
âHowever, this blast consumed too much energy. It took up twenty percent of the shipâs energy storage, so we must take note to use it wisely.â
âAgreed.â
âJudging from the Firmament Starâs resources, how many more of this warship can we construct?â
âThree more of them.â
The Crimson Sun Daoist Celestial smacked his lips and said.
âLetâs continue.â
â¦
In another location of the universe.
A large formation of warships was sailing towards the Firmament Star. These warships belonged to⦠the Blood Tribe!
On the deck of a large main warship.
A pompously dressed man was sitting on the deck with a long sword laid before him. The man seethed with the presence of terrifying sword qi.
Several Blood Kings, who were standing beside him, were visibly uneasy.
âHis aura is extraordinary and stronger than most Daoist Celestial. No wonder heâs considered a genius from Planet Zi.â
The Argent King said solemnly.
âApparently, he ascended into the Daoist Celestial Realm before he reached a thousand years of cultivation experience. However, a genius like him isnât even considered the top ten strongest cultivators in Planet Zi. The strongest cultivators in Planet Zi are all Immortal Progenies!â
King Yue lamented.
Planet Zi was one of the two Immortal civilizations in the Violet Gold Galaxy, and Immortal Progenies were the most remarkable sky-prides of these civilizations!
As its name suggested, Immortal Progenies were the descendants of Immortals.
Every Immortal Progeny possessed the potential to become an Immortal.
Of course, the emphasis was on their potential.
Even for the Immortal Progenies, ascending into an Immortal was a mammoth task.
For dozens of eras in Planet Zi, the civilization had nurtured many Immortal Progenies. Yet, not a single Immortal had been nurtured in Planet Zi.
It was a testimonial to how difficult becoming an Immortal was.
However, this did not take away how strong the Immortal Progenies were.
After all, they were cultivators who could ascend into Immortals. Although the Blood Kings were powerful Daoist Celestials, it was impossible for them to become Immortals.
âImmortal Progenies⦠How I envy these people.â
The Argent King stared into the hull of the ship.
Over there sat an Immortal Progeny.
âHey, are we there yet?â
The sitting youngster asked the Blood King.
âSoon, we still have approximately half a month to go.â
The Argent King answered.
âItâs been so many years, yet you still failed to capture Firmament Star. Donât you think the Blood Tribe civilization is useless?â
The youngster said indifferently.
âBrother Li, please mind your words.â
The Argent King took a deep breath and suppressed his anger.
âThe Planet Zi is funding half of the cost in this operation. What can you do if I decide not to mind my words?â
âThese resources were provided in exchange for our Heaven Devourer Techniques.â
âThen you should be glad that Planet Zi has taken a liking to what youâve offered. Otherwise, youâll be sitting ducks for the next several eras.â The youngster did not improve his tone.
âHmph.â The Argent King snorted and did not say anything else.
âThe only entity whoâs somewhat powerful in Blood Tribe is the Blood God himself. Alas, in his effort to ascend beyond the Heavenly Daoist Celestial Realm, he resorted to devouring the Heavenly Dao and put himself in deep slumber for dozens of eras to this date.â
The youngster continued.
At that, the Blood Kingsâ faces turned grim.
The Blood God was a key pillar of the Blood Tribeâs religion, so the youngsterâs remarks had fundamentally infringed upon their beliefs. The Blood Kings were finding it difficult to control their anger any longer.
âLi Feng, weâre here to work together with the Blood Tribe. Mind your manners.â
A clear voice sounded from within the warship.
âYes, Your Highness.â
Li Feng immediately lowered his head in respect.
Only then did the Blood Kings manage to soothe their anger.
âI heard that a young sky-pride from Firmament Star is responsible for the Blood Tribeâs recent losses. Is that true?â
The voice spoke again. This time, it was directed to the Blood Kings.
At the mention of this, a look of hatred was revealed in the Argent Kingâs eyes. âThatâs right. Heâs called Chu Kuangren, and because of him, weâreâ¦â
The Argent King narrated all of the incidents surrounding Chu Kuangren.
The voice went quiet for a moment after that. Then, it continued speaking, âIf my intuition is right, heâs also an Immortal Progeny.â
âThatâs possible.â The Argent King nodded.
That cultivation level at that ageâ¦
It was entirely plausible that Chu Kuangren was an Immortal Progeny.
âPfft. Even if he is, heâs dead now. Thereâs nothing to be afraid of a dead Immortal Progeny,â Li Feng chuckled from the side.
âBut youâre not even an Immortal Progeny.â
The Argent King secretly mocked.
â¦
Near an uninhabited planet in the universe.
A ray of light appeared in the vicinity.
Chu Kuangren watched the brownish-yellow asteroid as his eyes glimmered with excitement. âLil Ai, analyze this planet.â
âAnalyzing⦠This is a Category Four Planet. It contains a rich amount of Daoist gold and spirit mines. Once consumed, your Stellar Undying Body will reach the Expert stage,â said the Omniscient Spirit.
In the past few days, Chu Kuangren had subsequently consumed more than a dozen planets and upgraded his Stellar Undying Body to the peak of its Novice stage.
He was so close to upgrading it to the Expert stage.
âExpert Stellar Undying Body? I canât wait.â
Chu Kuangren chuckled before he dashed towards the surface of the planet and began drilling down to its core with his body..
