498: Starry Sky Emperor Spirit

The pillar of light pierced through the Imperial Palace, reaching straight into the starry sky, illuminating Ye Xuan's figure as if a Star God had descended.

A vast will, like a sea of stars and majestic as an Emperor, surged into his Sea of Consciousness through Ye Xuan's arm!

This will was not an attack, but the opening of a Legacy gate.

In Ye Xuan's Sea of Consciousness, at this moment, it was as if an boundless ancient scroll of stars unfolded; the trajectories of countless stars' birth and death, and the Law of the Great Dao, surged in like a torrent.

This was not merely the Legacy of the Ziwei Great Emperor Star, but also encompassed the powerful force of controlling the stars of the entire universe.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The gate of the Ziwei Imperial Palace, sealed for eons, slowly opened inwards amidst a colossal roar.

Beyond the gate was not a resplendent palace, but an boundless starry world, with brilliant nebulae swirling, countless stars floating, emitting gentle Dao Star Divine Light. Each of these stars contained different Star Divine Ability or insights into the Great Dao.

"That's great, husband, you succeeded!"

Fire Linger's face lit up with joy.

Tang Linglong, Yan Ruyu, and Ye Yao Ru also breathed a sigh of relief, their faces showing anticipation.

They were all looking forward to the moment Ye Xuan obtained the complete Star power.

However, Ye Xuan's hand on the gate did not retract; instead, his brows furrowed slightly.

Within that vast Legacy information, he keenly caught a trace of extremely hidden, yet extremely high-ranking, resistance.

This will was cold and ancient, carrying a hint of disturbed anger, not from the Imperial Palace itself, but rather like an instinctive repulsion from some ancient existence sleeping here towards outsiders.

"Husband? What's wrong?"

Tang Linglong noticed the subtle change in his aura.

"It's nothing, the Legacy information is simply too vast."

Ye Xuan did not reveal it. The chaos dao seed slowly rotated in his Dantian, emitting an all-encompassing Chaos aura, beginning to absorb the massive Star Legacy.

His aura resonated with the Ziwei Imperial Palace, and even the entire Great Emperor Star.

"Let's go in and each seek our own Opportunity, acting within our capabilities."

Ye Xuan did not intend to deal with that power here, choosing instead to step into that starry world first.

The four women followed closely, instantly awestruck by the sight before them, and each spread their Divine Sense to sense the light clusters that resonated with their own Dao.

Ye Xuan, however, took a single step, and the galaxy beneath his feet reversed, bringing him directly to the core depths of this starry world.

There, suspended was an incredibly massive, slowly pulsating Star core.

It was not a physical entity, but was condensed from the purest Origin of the Ziwei Great Emperor Star and the Law of the Myriad Ancient Stars, emitting an supreme Imperial Might that commanded the world.

Surrounding the core were four smaller auxiliary stars, representing different Star powers such as killing, guarding, evolution, and annihilation. Their lights varied, and their auras were immense.

The core Legacy of the Ziwei Great Emperor Star, and the Legacy imprints of the Four-Directional Stars.

All of these were now open to Ye Xuan, awaiting his absorption and refinement.

Ye Xuan's mind was clear. He sat cross-legged in the void, preparing to refine this ultimate Legacy.

But just as his mind sank in, attempting to establish a connection with that Star core...

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The Star core suddenly erupted with blinding light!

That hidden resistant will suddenly became clear and intense.

Like an ancient Dragon that had been sleeping for eons, now fully awakened!

A cold and majestic, yet immensely furious, grand will slammed fiercely into Ye Xuan's Divine Soul!

"Outsider! How dare you covet the power of the Great Emperor Star and disturb my slumber! You deserve death!"

The will exploded like a great bell, reverberating in Ye Xuan's Sea of Consciousness.

Inside the Star core, a blurry, illusory figure, wearing an Imperial Crown and draped in a robe of the Heavenly Stars, rapidly solidified.

The pressure it emitted had clearly reached the Immortal Emperor level, and even appeared more unfathomable due to its perfect Fusion with the Imperial Palace's Origin!

This was precisely the Imperial Spirit, the Spirit nurtured by the Ziwei Imperial Palace, or rather, a special existence formed by the remnant will of the ancient Ziwei Great Emperor combined with the Imperial Palace's Origin!

The Imperial Spirit stared intently at Ye Xuan, and the surrounding stars of the universe trembled. Endless Star power transformed into terrifying pressure, squeezing Ye Xuan from all directions, intending to crush this outsider completely!

"Silent for eons, the Great Emperor Star has long been without a Dominator. Today, I, Ye Xuan, am here. This Legacy rightfully belongs to me! What right do you have to reprimand me!"

Ye Xuan suddenly opened his eyes, Chaos Qi wildly swirling in them, the power of creation and destruction interwoven, meeting the terrifying pressure of the Imperial Spirit without flinching!

His body's Chaos aura surged, intending to refine this starry world, along with the Star core and the Imperial Spirit, all at once!

"Chaos... it's the aura of Chaos! You are actually the Dominator of Chaos!"

The Imperial Spirit felt Ye Xuan's Chaos power and let out a roar mixed with shock and anger.

It seemed to have an instinctive fear of this power that existed before the creation of heaven and earth.

After all, Chaos power is incredibly strong and certainly not a force to be ignored casually.

"Hmph, Chaos power, even Chaos power, cannot transcend the Stars! Suppress!"

The Imperial Spirit raised its hands, and all the Star light clusters in the entire starry world lit up simultaneously. Billions of Star Divine Lights converged, forming a roaring Star River Dragon, carrying a terrifying force capable of crushing the Myriad Realms, and swallowed towards Ye Xuan!

This was the manifestation of the Imperial Palace's Origin power, enough to easily suppress and kill ordinary Immortal Emperors!

Facing this world-destroying strike, Ye Xuan's expression remained unchanged. He formed a profound hand seal in front of his chest.

The chaos dao seed vibrated intensely, and the tender sprout at its tip emitted a hazy clear light.

"Chaos opens, Myriad Laws return to One!"

He let out a low shout, pushing out the hand seal.

At that moment, there was no earth-shattering explosion. The roaring Star River Dragon, upon contact with the hand seal, seemed to fall into an invisible quagmire.

The immense Star body power rapidly disintegrated, returning to its most primitive Star power, which was then quickly absorbed by the Chaos Qi!

Using Chaos to transform Myriad Laws!

No matter how heaven-shaking your Divine Ability, I will break it with a single force, returning it to its Origin!

This was the power of Chaos.

"What!"

The Imperial Spirit's illusory figure swayed violently, revealing an expression of disbelief.

The Imperial Palace's Origin power, on which it relied for its existence, was so easily resolved by the other party? This... he truly found it hard to believe.

"The Legacy power of the Great Emperor Star belongs to the capable. You have guarded this palace for tens of thousands of years in vain, not only failing to develop and strengthen the Great Emperor Star's power, but instead allowing the Stars to be covered in dust and the Imperial Might to be unmanifested."

"This already deviates from the original intention of the Ziwei Great Emperor. Today, I, Ye Xuan, shall reclaim control of Ziwei and re-establish the Stars!"

Ye Xuan's voice was calm as he actively walked step by step towards the Imperial Spirit.

With each step he took, the Chaos aura around him grew stronger, and his control over the surrounding Star power deepened.

At this moment, before this Imperial Spirit, it was as if Ye Xuan was the true Dominator of this starry sky!

Such powerful strength was evident at a glance.
