The Star Fire trembled in the air at a high frequency.

Like the wings of a wasp, flapping so intensely.

Buzz buzz buzz... 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

It oscillated up and down, dazzling to the eyes.

Swish.

With rapid speed, it flew toward the vast dark sky.

From the ground, it looked like a falling star, not attracting the attention of the humans below.

Many people’s attention still lingered on the previous Nine Stars in a Row.

At this moment.

The celestial phenomenon of Nine Stars in a Row had long vanished, returning to serenity.

The speed of the Star Fire exceeded Fang Yu’s expectations; he never thought it could fly so fast.

"Still dared to take a running start?"

The high-frequency tremble just now was clearly a running start.

So human-like, Fang Yu was somewhat surprised. Regardless, he must subdue this Star Fire. This thing is equivalent to a Divine Artifact.

It’s said that having many skills doesn’t weigh you down, and neither do many treasures.

With the Star Fire, future encounters with strong enemies will also come with a higher chance of success.

Once again, he deployed the Divine Dragon Transformation.

This move by Fang Yu never failed, always managing to appear in front of the Star Fire at the right moment.

As such, the two engaged in a continuous chase in the air as if flickering back and forth.

In a short amount of time, Fang Yu had chased it tens of thousands of miles, long past Huaxia’s boundaries.

...

In the dark sky.

The flash of light streaked by even faster than a meteor.

A full hour of pursuit.

Only then did the Star Fire come to a halt.

Fang Yu still hovered ahead of the Star Fire.

If it hadn’t been for mastering the Divine Dragon Transformation and Space Great Law, wanting to outrun such a formidable energy truly would have been a problem.

But now, for Fang Yu...

Catching up to the Star Fire wasn’t too difficult.

"Go on, keep running then? No worries, I can afford the time... At worst, accompany you in running a few laps around the Earth... With my current strength, that’s not an issue."

Who in their right mind would run laps around the Earth, that’s just crazy.

The flames of the Star Fire burned fiercer, as if in anger.

Whoosh!

If running away isn’t an option, then it was time to attack!

Like a cannonball, the Star Fire charged forward.

This scene reminded Fang Yu of the shockwave that appeared during the Nine Stars in a Row.

Seems somewhat different!

But Fang Yu no longer had the luxury of thinking about this, instead swung his sword.

Bang!

The two collided.

The Star Fire was knocked back.

Flames flew across the sky, releasing many sparks, which scattered within the surrounding space.

These flames mustn’t be touched.

"Star Fire, you have nowhere left to go..."

Desolate Divine Sense!

Release!

The overwhelming pressure, akin to Mount Tai, constrained the Star Fire.

The void was like it was filled with stones; the Star Fire was utterly immobilized.

Sizzle.

Sizzle sizzle!

The Star Fire frantically struggled, clashing fiercely with the surrounding Spiritual Will.

Spiritual Will is intangible; although the flames were formidable, burning it was a difficulty.

In this world, what could burn even souls were Soul Fire. But such flames exist only in legends, never witnessed by anyone.

...

"Master, its energy has weakened, quickly lead it into the Qi Sea!" The Little Elf’s voice suddenly emerged.

"Lead it into the Qi Sea? It’s dangerous, its energy would set my Qi Sea aflame. By then, you both would also be affected!" Fang Yu shook his head.

"Master, burning is in a flame’s nature... Both I and the Divine Dragon are at the Free Heaven level of Divine Artifacts, we can handle the burning of the Star Fire. Just suppress it within the Qi Sea for an hour, and you will be able to control the power of the Star Fire. By then, I and the Divine Dragon will be unharmed."

"Is this feasible?"

"There’s also the possibility of failure, but afterward, it would merely mean enduring a period of burning pain, not significantly impactful." The Little Elf spoke.

"Alright, then let’s try."

Anyway, it’s not a matter of losing a feather.

As for pain, such bodily torment isn’t much of a concern.

Recalling the times spent cultivating in various Secret Realms, Fang Yu endured much more significant suffering than this.

Upon understanding this.

Fang Yu acted accordingly, expanding his Qi Sea under the pressure of the imposing Spiritual Will.

Whoosh!

Like the sea swallowing a small fish.

The Star Fire entered Fang Yu’s Qi Sea.

The once vast Qi Sea was suddenly replaced by a sea of flames.

It was all fire.

The Little Elf spoke at this moment, "Master, I’ll hide in the Nine Layer Tower for a while."

"..."

Divine Dragon: "Roar——"

Fang Yu only felt like his entire body had fallen into a sea of fire, like entering a sauna.

The heat was unbearable.

The whole body’s most rigid and Yang Primordial Qi continually resisted these terrifying burns.

Sizzle.

Sizzle sizzle.

"Qi Sea Wall!"

Fang Yu was involuntarily stunned.

The flame’s power was truly terrifying, even causing the Qi Sea Wall of the Heavenly Master Realm to sizzle audibly as it burned.

"Collect your mind."

Fang Yu’s soul entered his Qi Sea.

Before the Qi Sea Wall, he was stunned by the burning scene of the Star Fire...

The entire Qi Sea Wall was covered in flames, blue in hue!

These flames were the primary source of the burning sensation.

"Burn all you want... The Qi Sea Wall of a Heavenly Master is quite resistant to burning!" Fang Yu smiled faintly.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle.

Sizzle sizzle.

The ever-unstoppable Star Fire met its match, regardless of how it burned, it couldn’t escape Fang Yu’s control.

Within the Qi Sea Wall, under his consciousness.

...

Simultaneously.

The shockwave produced by the Nine Stars in a Row also carried a strong force.

No human noticed.

That energy, like ink, formed leaves, striking toward the earth.

And then vanished.

That ink-like energy disappeared from human society.

Bang!

That black energy broke through some barrier, entering an endless void.

It continued to fall.

Becoming light and airy.

Like cotton candy, black cotton candy.

Just before the cotton candy was about to hit the bottom.

A silhouette even darker swiftly flashed by.

Swish.

Swish swish...

To be correct, eight silhouettes appeared.

"Finally came down... The Power of Dark Star! The supreme power generated by the Nine Stars in a Row! By absorbing it, I shall achieve the Heavenly Master Realm!" Zhao Mengxue was thrilled.

The black cotton candy-like thing emitted an eerie force.

This made Zhao Mengxue’s eyes nearly pop out.

"The Book Collection Pavilion didn’t lie to me... The negative energy humans produce is indeed vast, but there is more negative energy in this boundless universe. Today... will be the start of my revenge path!"

Whoosh!

Swish swish.

The Dark Power was directly thrown into the Qi Sea.

Boom!

Like a mushroom cloud explosion.

Rumble rumble!

In the Demon Cave World Book Collection Pavilion, the Dark Power book recorded: In this world, life forms capable of absorbing the Power of Dark Star must either possess Nirvana Rebirth or have more than one life. Absorbing Dark Power, nine out of ten die.
