"Rumble rumble rumble...
Billions of stars flickered across the earth. These were star runes, arranged in strange shapes to form a bizarre formation.
Long Chen sat within the grand formation, as if inside two giant mirrors, with the starry sky stretching endlessly, endlessly.
Behind Long Chen, countless star dragon veins danced, endless starlight from heaven and earth converged toward him. In just three days, Long Chen had already condensed thirteen star dragon veins.
Behind Long Chen, the eight-colored divine ring circulated, connecting the heavenly and earthly starry skies, channeling endless star power into thirteen star dragon veins.
When the thirteen star dragon veins were fully formed, they were still greedily absorbing the power of heaven and earth. At first, the star dragon veins were blurry, but as they grew, the amount of star power no longer increased, but instead underwent a qualitative transformation, and their bodies became clearer and clearer.
The dragon's tail, claws, and horns began to show a distinctive luster; they were no longer illusory but appeared tangible.
"Such a powerful aura!"
Even the Exquisite Blood Demon, watching from the side, couldn't help but exclaim, "What kind of cultivation technique does your son practice? How can the power of the dragon vein be so powerful?"
"What cultivation method?" Long Zhantian's expression was somewhat strange.
"What kind of expression was that?" The Exquisite Blood Demon said somewhat dissatisfied, thinking Long Zhantian was mocking its ignorance.
"You really don't know?" Long Zhantian asked.
"Nonsense! If I knew, would I even need to ask you? I've been trapped by your Long family for so many years—how could I possibly know?" The Exquisite Blood Demon shouted angrily.
"Could it be that in your inherited memories, you don't know how your ancestors died?" Long Zhantian asked.
"Our ancestor died in a place called the Lord of the Nine Stars... Wait, what do you mean... Damn! "Linglong Blood Demon shouted:
"The technique your son is cultivating—could it be that he came from that guy?"
"That's right," Long Zhantian said.
The Exquisite Blood Demon gritted his teeth and said, "After all, he's the descendant of my enemy. If you let me be your son's sparring partner again, do you believe I'll kill him?"
Long Zhantian smiled faintly but said nothing, seemingly unconcerned about the threat posed by the Linglong Blood Demon.
"I'm furious. One is the descendant of my enemy, the other is the disciple who destroyed my ancestors. Neither of you father nor son is a good person." The Exquisite Blood Demon was furious.
"It's okay, you'll get used to it!" Long Zhantian offered words of comfort.
"Good, you know! If it were me, would you be used to it? Aren't you bullying me? Besides, is it really that bullying?" The Exquisite Blood Demon roared in fury.
"No, no, no, you're not human." Long Zhantian corrected him.
"You..." The Exquisite Blood Demon roared angrily, tearing through the void with four claws and vanishing in an instant.
Faced with the departure of the Linglong Blood Demon, Long Zhantian paid no mind at all; his eyes remained fixed on Long Chen within the formation.
Using the runes on the Jiuli Divine Stele, he created a formation for Long Chen that could draw upon the power of the stars. Although there were still many flaws, the power he drew could quickly help Long Chen condense the power of the dragon vein.
Seeing the starlight around Long Chen, his expression gradually grew serious. Countless runes danced in his mind, and he never stopped helping Long Chen calculate this technique.
Long Zhantian was originally a prodigy, with talent comparable to an emperor. During his more than twenty years of imprisonment, his body was useless, and he focused solely on performing calculations and spells.
Over the past twenty years, he had devised countless magical and divine abilities. Once freed from his constraints, he began to verify his calculations, proving that over ninety percent of his calculations were correct.
This time, meeting Long Chen, he naturally did not hide anything from his own father and truthfully told him all the cultivation methods he practiced.
Long Zhantian marveled at the Dragon God's Body Refining Technique. It was a nearly perfect divine art, but unfortunately, it was a unique technique of the dragon clan. When Long Chen practiced it, he experienced rejection phenomena.
Long Zhantian even specifically instructed Long Chen to put some effort into certain areas to minimize the rejection phenomenon, so that the power of dragon blood could be fully unleashed.
But when Long Zhantian went to study the Nine-Star Overlord Body Technique, trouble arose. He was shocked to discover that the technique was riddled with flaws, endless flaws, and even contradictory techniques.
Many of the methods of controlling and operating these forces are fanciful and completely inconsistent with the laws of the Heavenly Dao. In such a state, it is impossible to achieve unity between heaven and man.
But upon closer investigation, he discovered that at the end of the error, there seemed to be another turning point. The Nine-Star Overlord Body Technique was too mysterious and complex, impossible to calculate or deduce.
Unless he can cultivate the Nine Star Overlord Body Technique, he simply cannot grasp its mysteries. Cultivation is not about those involved being confused while bystanders see clearly; sometimes, it's just the opposite.
Even with Long Zhantian's pride, he was filled with awe for the Nine-Star Overlord Body Technique. The person who could create this technique had unimaginable wisdom; clearly, he was still far behind.
However, after studying it, although he only gained some superficial understanding, he could still help Long Chen a bit.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a thunderous explosion erupted, the starry sky trembled, and then a vast surge of starry power surged forth. The fierce wind blew Long Zhantian's long hair wild, interrupting his thoughts.
Long Zhantian focused his gaze and saw that among the thirteen dragon veins behind Long Chen, one was glowing with scales and starlight flickering in its eyes, as if given life. Amid its vast pressure, there was a trace of agility.
"Boom boom boom...
A series of explosive sounds echoed like the finishing touch of a dragon. The star dragon veins behind Long Chen danced one after another. Soon, the thirteen star dragons seemed to be endowed with life and soul, their vast pressure radiating across the heavens and earth. At this moment, Long Chen's star power had advanced to the Great Perfection.
"Buzz"
When the power of the stars reached its peak and Long Chen opened his eyes, it was as if a universe was swirling within them. At that moment, the starry sky around Long Chen suddenly lit up. When the starlight in his eyes vanished, the stars in the world vanished as well.
"Excellent, exactly. Receive and receive at will, and the power of the stars has reached its peak. Next, it's the Supreme Blood." Long Zhantian said.
"Can Supreme blood also condense a dragon vein?" Long Chen couldn't help but shout excitedly.
"That's a joke. If I couldn't, how would your father have advanced to Divine Emperor?" Long Zhantian said with a smile.
After speaking, Long Zhantian passed on a set of cultivation methods to Long Chen. This technique was the result of his life's lifelong effort, created by Long Zhantian after more than twenty years of dedication.
Originally, he planned to pass this set of techniques to Long Chen and use them as his main cultivation method, but later he discovered that the Dragon God Body Refining Technique was no inferior to his own technique, and the Nine-Star Overlord Body Technique was even more astonishing. He decided to simply give this method to Long Chen as an auxiliary method.
"Come on, start condensing the Supreme Dragon Vein. Father will protect you." Teaching complete, dragonChen understood instantly, and Long Zhantian directly had Long Chen condense the dragon vein.
"Where is Senior Linglong?" Long Chen suddenly realized that the Linglong Blood Demon who was protecting them had actually disappeared.
"Got an upset stomach, went to find a latrine!" Long Zhantian replied casually.
Long Chen: "..."
