Chapter 5,767: Demon Clan Elite
龙尘 returned to the Luo family, just about to continue researching the Eight-Star Battle Body. However, Luo Zichuan arrived.
"It's settled," Luo Zichuan said as soon as he arrived. Dragon Dust was ecstatic.
"Really?" Dragon Dust's face showed an expression of disbelief.
"Indeed. The Clan Chief has given me the authority to use all the clan's resources. However, he hinted that we should be discreet," Luo Zichuan said with a smile.
"Hehe, there's no need for him to hint. Such matters were never meant to be public," Dragon Dust chuckled, pulling out all the Heavenly Dao Fruits. When Luo Zichuan saw these fruits covered in celestial rune patterns, he was prepared but still deeply impressed.
At his level, Luo Zichuan could sense the world-altering energy within the Heavenly Dao Fruits. Consuming one of these fruits was like defying fate.
No wonder Dragon Dust was so cautious. Once this became known, it would undoubtedly shake the entire world.
"Grandfather, could you arrange for my uncle and others to distribute them? I remember that our family has cultivated some disciples with excellent talents," Dragon Dust suggested. He had used Heavenly Dao Fruits on Luo family disciples several times before.
"I'd better handle it personally this time. It's different from before, and we can't afford any mistakes," Luo Zichuan said, taking the Heavenly Dao Fruits and leaving to make arrangements.
Dragon Dust nodded in agreement. This matter couldn't afford any slip-ups. If it were exposed, aside from other consequences, the Bi family would go mad. They wouldn't allow the Luo family to grow unchecked. The best strategy was to accumulate wealth quietly.
After Luo Zichuan left, Dragon Dust formed hand seals, and a divine halo appeared behind him. The stars revolved, and under the guidance of Dragon War Tian's teachings, Dragon Dust had reached an unprecedented level of mastery over star power.
Even in this small room, Dragon Dust could summon a starry sea. As long as he didn't enter a combat state, his aura would remain concealed.
Eight stars revolved behind Dragon Dust, constantly changing their positions within the starry sea. The pentagram, hexagram, heptagram, and octagram patterns appeared alternately. When the pentagram appeared, the other three stars rotated from the outer to the inner position, but they couldn't find a suitable arrangement.
The hexagram and heptagram were the same. Regardless of how they were arranged, there were flaws in the connection of their powers, hindering the smooth flow of star power. Instead of enhancing his strength, it weakened him.
Only by dividing the stars into two groups, forming two squares, and overlapping them to create an octagram, could his power be increased. However, the octagram's structure was unstable, and when operating at eight stars, there seemed to be an invisible force obstructing its operation.
Forcing the formation of the octagram was possible, but it wouldn't amplify his power by more than twice. Compared to the five-star, six-star, and seven-star improvements of several times or even ten times, it was clear that the difference was huge.
Thirteen starry dragons soared in the starry sea, moving according to Dragon Dust's thoughts, assuming various forms. Under his control, the stars surged like tides or flowed like rivers. Dragon Dust was calculating the optimal form of the Eight-Star Battle Body.
However, the calculation was extremely complex. The changing positions of each star affected the operation of the entire phenomenon.
This was a monumental task, but Dragon Dust had no choice. No matter how daunting it was, he had to calculate it until he found the perfect form.
What troubled him the most was that there was no shortcut to this process. He couldn't use the Seven Treasure Glass Tree to assist; he had to rely on the most primitive and cumbersome method of calculation.
After more than an hour of intense concentration, Dragon Dust began to feel dizzy and mentally exhausted. He had to stop his calculations because the mental strain was becoming too much.
At this moment, Luo Yanfeng and others also came out. When Dragon Dust saw them, he couldn't help but be surprised.
The aura of Luo Yanfeng and the others had become much deeper and more restrained, with a hidden sharpness within. Dragon Dust could sense a faint divine power emanating from their bloodlines, indicating that another kind of power was awakening within them.
Dragon Dust felt a bit uneasy. Why hadn't the totem's blessing extended to him? After all, he had done so much for the Purple Blood lineage. But thinking about their attitude when they kneeled before him, Dragon Dust felt that things might not be so simple. If they had benefits, they would surely give them to him. If they didn't, it was either because they had nothing to offer or because he wasn't qualified to receive.
"Dragon Dust, after receiving the totem's blessing, I feel full of strength. How about you?" Luo Jiang asked excitedly when he saw Dragon Dust.
"Same here," Dragon Dust replied, changing the subject. "Hurry and gather our forces. Let's go back to the battlefield and try to get the others in our team to receive the totem's blessing as well. We need to widen the gap, so that the Bi family can't threaten us."
"Agreed," the others nodded eagerly. Only those who had received the blessing knew how precious this opportunity was.
Soon, the team was assembled, and Dragon Dust and his group didn't even have time to exchange treasures. They immediately set foot on the battlefield once again.
Upon their return, the Tree of Heavenly Dao in the chaotic space trembled slightly, and Heavenly Dao Fruits were produced from time to time.
"It seems that with the totem's blessing active, everyone is making a desperate push to accumulate a million points of slaughter," Dragon Dust thought.
Clearly, once the totem's blessing was activated, it was no longer a secret. The elders of the Purple Blood lineage must have known what the totem's blessing meant, so they sent all the elite disciples out.
However, in such a situation, countless people were bound to die on the battlefield. This was what Luo Zichuan had mentioned—the end of the great battle would likely see over 90% of the elite disciples dead.
It was a brutal and bloody elimination round. After this selection, only the elite among the elite would remain. These elites would compete with the elite disciples from the various tribes of the Purple Blood lineage. The victors would enter Emperor Mountain and become the backbone of the Purple Blood lineage.
As Dragon Dust and his group advanced for some time, they saw countless disciples of the Purple Blood lineage engaged in fierce battles with formidable demons.
These disciples were visibly nervous when they saw Dragon Dust and his group approaching. These were their enemies from the Bi family, and the saying "meeting one's enemies on the battlefield" was especially applicable here. They might say they weren't afraid, but it was just a facade.
However, Dragon Dust paid them no mind, flying past the battlefield's edge. At the same time, he glanced at their formation.
He found that their formation was chaotic, without any order or discipline. But perhaps this was in line with the original intent of this war—survival of the fittest.
Continuing forward, they no longer encountered Purple Blood lineage disciples. In front of them, there was a group of formidable demon warriors, their formation imposing, waiting for Dragon Dust and his group like a pack of wild beasts waiting for their prey.
Although this group of demon warriors was not large, numbering only in the tens of thousands, each of them exuded a powerful demonic aura and overwhelming pressure. The leader was a giant of the demon race, standing ten feet tall, wielding a massive wolf-tooth club. His entire body was covered in black runes, and his eyes were like the pupils of a crocodile, filled with a sense of brutality and bloodlust.
"Human, welcome to your death," he grinned, revealing jagged teeth like a saw, and with a single step, he moved like a shooting star, charging towards Dragon Dust and his group.
