Apex Star

Nova felt something was wrong with the way his bloodline acted. It burned so badly that he barely controlled himself from screaming.

'In fact, its starting to feel rather good now. What could be happening to me?' Thought Nova as his senses slowly came back.

Denzel and Sophie noticed that something was happening to Nova and wanted to ask him what was wrong, alas, they were too late.

BOOM! Space around Nova shattered like glass from the sheer pressure he exuded. He once again felt that excitement and hunger from his bloodline.

After a few seconds, a bigger boom was heard from inside of Nova, and he broke to Stage 2 Rank 2.

The two from Star Sect were stunned a little bit, especially after spotting an unidentifiable golden aura coming from Nova.

BOOM! Once again, the pressure increased, and Nova broke through Stage 2 Rank 3. But it didn't stop there.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Only after 5 minutes did the explosions coming from Nova stop. They were surprised to see him attaining Peak Stage 2 Rank 9, barely a few minutes from reaching Stage 2.

Still, the surprise didn't end there because after a short pause, another boom was heard that shook the entire planet, one that even stopped the space fluctuations from forming.

No, it didn't stop them, it was like the energy was afraid of a higher level energy and choose to retreat.

Nova was shocked to see that he directly broke to Stage 3 in one go. What to say about the two onlookers who also couldn't believe something like that really happened.

After a few seconds of silence, Denzel broke the silence. "Really now, what actually happened!?"

Sophie didn't say anything, but she too was shocked.

Carefully considering his next words, Nova tried to explain what he felt in those moments.

"I don't really understand either, but after hearing about all those supreme geniuses and how big the 'world' is, my bloodline started acting a little strange.

It wasn't the first time that I felt this excitement and hunger to battle, but it was surely the first time it helped me break through an entire realm." Said Nova.

The two were stunned by Nova's reasoning for his crazy breakthroughs . Not even once did they hear about a bloodline helping its owner break through an entire realm.

Sure, there were a few even in their sect who broke through one or two ranks. Just like the two of them were in the past. Maybe even those monstrous geniuses broke through for two or three ranks. But an entire realm? Something like that never happened in the past.

After a little consideration, Sophie said; "We should rush to the Sect and skip the normal procedures to see the Sect Master."

Denzel thought it made sense what Sophie just said. And they prepared to take Nova and go to their sect.

°°°°°

In a distant place over billions of universes away from Nova and the others.

There was a throne floating in the deep darkness that had a man sitting on it. What seemed like runes decorated the throne.

There were 10 stars that decorated the throne, all in different colors of;

White/Black/Blue/Red/Green/Gold/Brown/Grey/Purple and Orange.

After a few seconds, the man sitting on the throne opened his eyes, which seemed to contain entire galaxies in them. Pondering for a moment, he spoke to seemingly no one.

"The Golden Star of Apex has awakened. It seems there is only the Blue Star of Nirvana and Orange Star of Sun left. May the Origin Stars shine brighter and put an end to the catastrophes coming our way. I hope this time we will succeed." The man closed his eyes after saying this.

After stopping speaking, one couldn't find the man or the throne anymore, it was as if he stopped existing.

After a few days of traveling, Nova basically didn't cultivate at all, he just made sure to adapt as fast as possible to all the changes in his body.

They were already in the God's Domain, and because of the speed they had, Nova didn't see anything about the scenery around him.

Finally, after a few hours, they slowed down.

The first thing Nova saw left him flabbergasted because what was in front of him was basically a star with buildings on it.

"That's a man-made star, meant to be the symbol of our sect. It gives the feeling that it really is a star, but it's not. Still, it looks cool, right? Hahaha!"

Denzel couldn't stop laughing after seeing Nova's face because it reminded him of himself when he was younger and saw the Star Sect for the first time.

After a few minutes, they descended on the sect and took Nova to a building, which in Nova's opinion didn't really conform to a 'sect' because it was pretty much a very futuristic design covered in glass that changed its colour from different angles.

In fact, the majority of buildings around him were the same. It looked like a combination of future and past, two opposites that merged together.

Thinking of this, he saw Denzel and Sophie slowly entering the building and a moment later he followed them too.

What looked like a reception was in front of them.

At the reception, there was a young and beautiful girl of about 18 or 19 years old.

She looked in his direction a few times after talking with Sophie and Denzel, and after making sure there wasn't a problem, she spoke to them.

"I will call Grand Elder Ria and Ghall from the border to see this kid. The sect master has a little bit of a situation at the border now because things are getting even more complicated." Said the young receptionist to Denzel and Sophie.

After saying this, she actually placed a 'Do not disturb' sign and got out of the building. Seemingly not surprised by this, Denzel and Sophie looked at Nova and told him to follow them.

"It will take a few hours for the Grand Elders to arrive, so we talked with Mia just there to prepare a guest room for you." explained Denzel.

Nova was suddenly enlightened by Mia's sudden leave, and he felt bad that he thought she was skipping work when she was actually preparing a room for him.
