Chapter 920: Chapter 404: The Star Palace Saints’ Scheme; Refining Nirvana Blood_2

These liquids are the supreme treasure—Star Essence Liquid—concentrated by the Star Palace over countless ages, blending various innate materials of immense value.

At this moment, within the pool of stars, a man and a woman sit facing each other, their bodies half-immersed in the vast sea of Star Essence Liquid.

They are none other than the Sovereigns of the Star Palace, Star King and Moon God, Divinity Transformation Cultivators of the Wind Origin Realm.

Their auras are as vast as the sea of smoke, unfathomable.

Their cultivation techniques are clearly of the same origin, mutually reinforcing each other.

Starlight and moonlight intertwine and circulate, forming a flawless Yin-Yang cycle of stars and moon between them.

With each complete cycle of their aura, they draw in massive amounts of Star Essence Liquid essence, growing and refining at an imperceptibly slow yet incomparably steadfast pace.

The extent of this growth is so minute that even a Late-Stage Nascent Soul Great Cultivator might barely perceive it.

Yet Star King and Moon God themselves can clearly grasp every tiny increment of progress.

In the Divinity Transformation Realm, every small step forward is exceedingly difficult.

The mana required to accumulate is vast beyond measure.

They have both stepped into the Divinity Transformation Stage for five or six hundred years.

By relying on the foundation of the Star Palace and the merits of dual cultivation, they have tirelessly cultivated day and night, yet still remain in the Early-Stage Divinity Transformation, some distance from its pinnacle.

Even now, the speed of cultivation bolstered by fate’s favor has already been deemed rapid in their eyes.

They do not know how much time has passed; it seemed like a mere instant, yet also like the passage of eternity.

The slowly flowing Star Essence Liquid in the pool rippled slightly.

Star King and Moon God opened their eyes almost simultaneously,

Yet no dazzling divine light shot forth, instead a restraint to the utmost.

But beneath that depth, a trace of undisguised joy quietly passed.

"Senior Brother."

Moon God spoke, her voice clear and ethereal, like icy springs dripping on jade plates, yet containing heartfelt joy,

"The realm fate power, for us Divinity Transformation Cultivators, indeed is the best ’catalyst’ for progressing in cultivation."

"Indeed!"

Star King also drew a sincere smile, one of controlled satisfaction,

"Talent, resources, opportunities are certainly important for Divinity Transformation Stage cultivation."

"But the subtlety of fate, especially... the fate plundered from another realm, is an irreplaceable supreme wonder!"

Divinity Transformation Cultivators are already the pinnacle of mankind in this world.

A continent’s capacity for Divinity Transformation Cultivators is numerically finite.

Even each Divinity Transformation Cultivator’s progress is subtly limited by the total realm fate they dwell within.

To break through faster, the quickest way is to... strengthen the fate of their own realm, or... plunder the fate of another realm!"

"This time’s scheme, invading that Nanchuan Realm, not only garnered massive resources, replenishing the palace’s stores."

"The key is the successful plunder of a substantial portion of its original fate, blessing our Wind Origin Realm, and thus benefiting us!" Star King’s tone carried a hint of pride.

In contrast, the Nanchuan Realm has suffered a great catastrophe, not only having its resources plundered but also facing severe damage to its original fate.

In the long run, let alone producing more Divinity Transformation Cultivators, maintaining the existing cultivation level will be uncertain; it’s just a matter of time before it degenerates into a barren land.

Moon God nodded slightly, her cold, clear eyes sparkling with sharp light: "At this rate, within no more than a hundred years, the cultivation of you and me can approach the pinnacle of Early-Stage Divinity Transformation!"

"Indeed!"

Star King’s eyes gleamed, his tone unwavering, "By then, if we join forces, we will have substantial assurance to slay the old loach in the outer sea, completely annihilate the Demon Race, and unify the Wind Origin Realm!"

The "old loach" he referred to is the True Dragon King—also a Divinity Transformation Stage existence dominating the outer sea.

This is the very root of continuous conflict between the Human and Demon Races in the Wind Origin Realm.

"Slaughtering the Demon Race, using their race’s fate to nurture ours, and obtaining the Tier Five True Dragon Essence Pill."

"With the miraculous efficacy of this pill, supplemented by the prosperity of realm fate returning..."

Star King’s voice carried a trace of fervor, "Among us, one is bound to seize this incredible opportunity, break through the bottleneck, and step into the long-desired Mid-Stage Divinity Transformation!"

Mid-Stage Divinity Transformation!

Once achieved, its might far surpasses the early stage.

The mastery over the rules of heaven and earth will reach a new height.

More importantly, Mid-Stage Divinity Transformation Cultivators will have the ability to establish relatively stable cross-realm spatial channels.

"By then..."

Star King and Moon God exchanged a glance, seeing the boundless ambition and yearning in each other’s eyes,

"We can gather the power of our Wind Origin Realm to annex the already Primordial Qi-depleted Nanchuan Realm in one swoop, transforming it into a vassal of our realm, plundering all its remaining resources and fate!"

"If both of us can take this step into Mid-Stage Divinity Transformation... even if we don’t reach the late stage, the combined efforts of two Mid-Stage Divinity Transformation Cultivators give us a significant chance to break free from this realm’s constraints and ascend to the Upper Realm!"

Ascend to the Upper Realm!

This is the ultimate and only pursuit of Star King and Moon God, who have stood at this realm’s pinnacle for innumerable ages.

For this goal, realm wars, the downfall of races, the suffering of countless living beings... all are considered means and stakes to achieve their ends!

By any means necessary!

On Moon God’s flawlessly cold face, the great temptation brought a slight flush of excitement, her starry eyes revealing an intensely strong desire.

She lightly nodded, her voice still cold yet containing unprecedented determination: "Everything depends on Senior Brother’s plans."
