Chapter 588: Understanding The Nine Star Art Manual!
“Huuuu.” Calming his nerves by closing his eyes and taking deep breaths, all Zeras saw was the image of Fluffy rapidly running away from Vegax, and its worried eyes as it looked at the place he had crashed into, its eyes filled with fear and worry.
It was the first time he had seen such an expression on Fluffy’s face. He had always been strong, easily defeating his opponents, with Fluffy mostly never having to even leave his shoulder. But this time, it had been attacked, and Zeras himself had been sent crashing into the wall with a single smack, not able to defend it at all.
“I’m sorry, Fluffy. It’s all my fault. Perhaps, I should have never exchanged. Maybe I should have been satisfied with my ingrained talents and simply have followed the system’s plan. You wouldn’t have suffered if not for my stupid decision…” Zeras whispered as he turned to look up at the sky and saw those shiny stars, each of them directing their light towards him, causing his silvery white hair to shine with a special color.
“But I promise you, you would only have to suffer with me for a short time, and then will come a lifetime of bliss. I promise you…” He mused, renewing his conviction, and successfully getting back into his calm state of mind once more.
“Now, for the Astral Cultivation manual…” Zeras mused as he looked at the manual and placed his hands on its cover, his eyes scrubbing past its words.
“Nine Star Hegemon Arts…” He mused, feeling the slight grandness in the words, and then he opened the first page.
“Through The Nine Heavens, and the Ten Lands. Only A Single Entity Will Remain an Invincible Hegemon in the Cangu Universe. An Heir Of The Nine Stars!!!” The words, as if infused with magical power, shook Zeras’ mind like a lonely boat on a raging sea, as an overwhelming feeling of dominance assaulted him.
“This art… It’s from another universe!?” he said in shock, as his hands holding the book shook uncontrollably. He could sense it from the aura spewing forth. It was unlike anything that he had ever felt, like the purest of energies that Takamahagara has no hope of ever matching.
“The Takamahagara Universe, The Abyssal Universe, and now the Cangu Universe. Just how many universes are out there, just how many things are hidden from me…” Zeras murmured, a new shine to his heart.
Just when he had thought he was reaching the very peak of this universe, he would find out there is still more, and there still exist people capable of striking fear into his very heart, and more pain beyond his imagination.
And according to what he had heard, the book in his hands right now belongs to those who are the most invincible on an entire plane of existence.
“An Heir Of The Nine Stars? So that’s what they are called?” He mused, the peculiar name to himself, and immediately he swerved to the next page, where the summary of the cultivation methods was clearly explained to him.
Hours passed by quickly and silently as the setting sun, as Zeras read every word of the beginning steps of the cultivation manual, without daring to miss the most minor of details, and soon he completely crammed everything in his head.
He couldn’t afford to stray because the book not being from this universe is a very alarming thing. If he dared to stray in his cultivation, then he would have none to help him out, and where would he find a person to help with his current weak status?
Besides, he had three years to grow beyond his former peak, he had no time to make silly mistakes because of failing to give time to properly comprehend the contents of the manuals.
“Good. Now I understand everything perfectly…” He mused out as he closed his eyes, and he rewound his understanding once more.
According to his understanding and what was explicitly stated, the Cangu Universe was a universe where people cultivate energy into their Dantian, just like the way Takamahagara uses Mana core as a storage for Mana energy.
But there were some anomalies in the Cangu Universe who, due to a reason or another, possess no Dantian. These people would usually be referred to as cripples in the universe.
It was just like when Zeras had no Mana Core and was called a cripple, with no ability to cultivate. And that is where the Nine Star Hegemon Art comes in.
The Nine Star Hegemon Arts is an art that replaces a dantian in a cultivator. When all nine stars are completed, it would be equivalent to one having nine Dantians, unlike an average cultivator’s single Dantian.
That was why the Nine Star Hegemon Art was a forbidden art in the Cangu Universe. It defies the natural heavenly law of a single universe.
“An art that grants one with no mana core, a total of Nine cores!!! Just what type of a sick art is this?” Zeras couldn’t help but muse out in shock.
And not only that, but the Nine Star Arts was a cultivation manual that focuses on cultivating an abominably strong body, with every star condensation leading to a massive increase in one’s physical strength. That was all that was given in the summarization. He was sure there were other things that were missing, but there wasn’t much he could do.
And so he moved on to the second page, where the detailed information on how to condense the first star was written, and quickly Zeras’ eyes glossed over it for the fifteenth time before he closed up the book and placed it into his storage ring.
“I now know what is needed.”
Firstly is the fact that each of the nine stars needs to be condensed right in his spine, and the first star name was called Desolate Body Star. A Star that drains all the blood and life essence in his body and changes his entire physique into something more…
From his mortal body to a Desolate Star Body!!!
