Star Altar!
Chaos Golden Lotus was found in a foreign domain and born in Chaos. To put its destructive power into perspective, it was superior to Blood Phoenix Divine Stone, yet the lotus was only the size of one’s palm.
The clear flower petals the mysterious girl discharged were exquisite. A vast expanse of silver light shone down. The lotus pierced the silver light with Chaos Light. Its petal rustles shook the air, imploding the silver light. A small silver blade and swung at the lotus.
Yang Tian clenched his fists and donned his golden combat robe. He recognised the small silver blade. It was made from mother star crystal. It was the blade the girl from the devil race used to dig out Yun’er’s Source.
Clang! Everything shook. Chaos Light blasted the blade away. The mysterious girl flicked a hole in the void. Cracks extended. Yin Energy burst. An Earth-shaking black beam descended. The mysterious girl frowned before calming down, for she discerned the girl from the devil race had grasped “Rule.” She speared the air with a finger. Her lotus summoned a passageway leading up. Her Chaos Light busted through the black beam, splitting it in five.
The mysterious girl didn’t look as though she was going all out; she was absolutely calm. This led to Yang Tian questioning if she was also using a clone. Fortunately, neither of the girls could’ve imagined Yang Tian was able to enter the place. Both of them were able to enter since they were impervious to the flames. Both were after the divine fire.
Yang Tian looked around before settling on a levitating bronze altar covered in rust. A colourful divine fire ball hovered on top of it. Correct, said fire was Triad Divine Fire. For some reason, it didn’t possess a fire spirit. The only way to explain how it was trapped in the pagoda was that it was destroyed. That made things easier for him, luckily.
Yang Tian noticed a collection of ashes beneath the altar. A quick guess was it belonged to someone who tried to collect the fire but was incinerated in the end. He ran his hand over the altar, wondering why it was so rusty. Unable to make sense of the patterns hidden under the rust, he went into Ancestral Dragon Ring to consult the nightmare dragon.
The nightmare dragon explained, “It’s called Star Altar.”
Yang Tian shook his head after pondering something. “What does it do? Why is Triad Divine Fire hovering above it?”
“The altar opens the Ancient Star Path. In other words, you can travel to other stars with it.”
“What?!”
Every Ancient Star Path was made using valuables. Only big clans knew of their existence.
Yang Tian wasn’t concerned with the Ancient Star Path; he only wanted to know how to obtain Triad Divine Fire. Though the nightmare dragon didn’t, it reminded Yang Tian, “The ashes belong to an ancient adept. They might just be Triad Divine Fire’s owner!”
Yang Tian gasped. Why was the fire at the top, then, he wondered. He sat down. He wondered if he the altar wanted him to deliver the adept’s remains back to his homeland to obtain the fire. It was a plausible theory. The dead couldn’t return home, after all. He sighed.
Yang Tian knew what he was cultivating for. But what was his goal after he completed everything he had to do? He touched his nose and uttered, “Triad Divine Fire is linked to Dao Sect in many ways. The golden water and fire resonate. I wonder if Dao Scripture will work.”
Yang Tian wanted to ascend to the altar; however, the two girls forbade anyone from approaching the altar. In addition, there was the risk of the fire attacking him.
A black beam suddenly transformed into a girl, and she raced to the altar while Yang Tian was deliberating. He chuckled. “You want to take Star Altar with a mere wisp of Blood and Essence. Stop dreaming…”
