The Nine Star Hegemon Body Art

   The Shattering of Starlight, The Awakening of Destiny Boom! A dazzling burst of starlight erupted like a collapsing sun, shaking the heavens. With a deafening explosion, Lu Ze was blasted away, blood spraying wildly as his hands were forcefully shattered. His Starclaw spun chaotically in the void. As the starlight receded, Fei Shuang stood amidst the fading brilliance, her long hair fluttering messily in the wind. In her hand, only the hilt of a broken broadsword remained, blood dripping steadily from its edge. Her face was slightly pale. That strike had been overwhelmingly powerful, but the backlash was just as terrifying. Had it been Bing Yi unleashing such an attack, the recoil alone would have crippled her on the spot. But Fei Shuang possessed the Primordial Demon Power , which had neutralized most of the counterforce. Though injured, her condition was far from critical. With a swift movement, Fei Shuang shot toward Lu Ze, who was still tumbling through the air. Betwee...

  Starriver’s Shattered Path Lu Ze never could have imagined—Fei Shuang had mastered Nebula Steps . Not only that, but her fluid movements were indistinguishable from Bing Yi’s own. Whoosh! Lu Ze was sent flying by a punch. But before he could recover, a burst of starlight erupted behind him. In an instant, Fei Shuang flashed into position, her five fingers curled like claws, tearing through the void as she lunged at him. “Startrace Claw?!” Lu Ze’s eyes widened in shock. That was Bing Yi’s signature technique! He had fought her multiple times and recognized the move instantly. But what stunned him even more was the difference. Bing Yi’s Startrace Claw had always been ferocious but lacked flexibility. Its power was undeniable, but its execution left openings. Yet, in Fei Shuang’s hands, the technique had evolved. Her strike was a perfect balance of hardness and softness—flawless. Seeing the incoming claw strike, Lu Ze forcefully suppressed his shock. Twisting his body midair, he sw...

  The Unyielding Star No one expected Lu Ze to appear at this critical moment, and even less did they anticipate that he could track them down with such precision. Long Chen had gone through great lengths to conceal his trail, changing locations multiple times and erasing all traces. Yet, despite his careful maneuvers, Lu Ze still found them. At this moment, Long Chen was inside the Kun Cauldron, at his weakest state, completely unable to fight. "Whoosh!" Fire Spirit Huo Ling'er, Thunder Spirit Lei Ling'er, and Cang Lu materialized at the same time, standing guard around the Kun Cauldron. The space around them twisted and churned, and ghostly vines coiled like serpentine shadows, poised to strike. Long Chen was at his most vulnerable, and they assumed their strongest defensive stance. However, against the massive celestial hand descending upon them, they did not attack. "Boom!" The celestial hand shattered into a thousand fragments, dispersing into t...

  Rebirth in Chaos - Long Chen's Ultimate Gamble The Kun Cauldron hovered above the heavens, its surface covered in divine runes, each one representing a different law of the cosmos. Now, those divine runes ignited with a sacred flame, absorbing the power of heaven and earth, fusing with the endless Dao of all existence. In that instant, the divine pool within the cauldron began to boil violently. It contained a vast portion of the most potent medicinal essences from Long Chen’s chaotic space, and the moment they erupted, an unimaginable surge of energy exploded forth. Zzzzzzz! Immediately, green smoke rose from Long Chen’s entire body, as if countless branding irons were being pressed against his skin simultaneously. However, he had already steeled his mind for this. Gritting his teeth, he endured the unimaginable agony, keeping his heart calm and focused. Inside the Heavenly Domain Battlefield, Long Chen’s cultivation had soared at an unprecedented rate. If his past progress was ...

  Forging a Path of No Return Without a true inheritance, it would be extremely difficult for Long Chen to awaken his Natal Divine Rune. And time waited for no one—he was now at an absolute disadvantage. Bing Yi had only just awakened her Natal Divine Rune and had yet to fully grasp its true power, yet she had already pushed Long Chen to such a desperate state. Those who had truly awakened their Natal Divine Runes and grasped the laws of the world—how terrifying would they be? "The Eight Gates... it's an unprecedented path. Its power is shocking, but no one knows what lies beyond them. Since you walk the path of the Nine Star lineage, I believe you must still draw from its essence. Take what is useful and discard what is not—that is the true way forward." Kun Ding spoke solemnly. The Eight Gates were a cultivation path that Long Chen had created himself, inspired by the divine diagrams he saw during his tribulation. But no one knew where this road would lead. Was it a dea...

  The Poisoned Path "Poison? You knew it was poison, and you still gave it to that little girl?" Xiaoyue shouted. "One man's nectar is another man's poison. For Feishuang, it was a heaven-sent opportunity. But for me, it was a fatal curse." "The moment I severed Bingyi’s arm, I sensed that something was off. That’s why I asked Senior Kunding to investigate, using Bingyi’s life-bound divine sigil as a medium," Long Chen explained. "So you had already noticed it back then?" Kunding looked at him in surprise. Long Chen nodded. "In fact, when I fought Aogu, I already had a faint feeling that something was wrong with his star power. "But I couldn’t pinpoint what it was. It wasn’t until I clashed with Bingyi that I started to piece it together." Kunding sighed in admiration. "I must admit, your human race’s keen perception is truly astonishing." "Hey, hey, hey! What are you two mumbling about? Stop speaking in ridd...

  The Demon Star's Awakening The star-shaped "Demon" mark on Fei Shuang's forehead was unlike that of any other Primordial Demon Clan member. While others bore symbols infused with righteousness, hers pulsed with an overwhelming killing intent, as if it were born solely for slaughter. The word "Demon" itself was one that evoked fear, often associated with all things dark and malevolent. Yet, unlike the defensive nature of Yue Xiaoqian and the others' sigils, Fei Shuang’s was fiercely aggressive, brimming with an insatiable desire to kill. At first, Long Chen thought it was the influence of the Star Arm, that Fei Shuang had been infected by Bing Yi’s emotions. But upon closer inspection, he realized that this thirst for bloodshed wasn’t mindless—it was born of protection . Having witnessed too many of her kin slaughtered before her eyes, Fei Shuang’s unwavering resolve to protect them, as well as her endless hatred for her enemies, had fused into this un...
