160: Star God's Divine Power

Chapter 160: Star Lord's Divine Might

Wu Xian clicked his tongue in approval, his gaze falling on the insect monsters cautiously approaching.

"Do all Otherworld monsters have Shards of Divine Power?"

He really wanted to get a divine power fragment now to see what kind of thing it was.

"Of course not," Xue Lingling shook her head. "Any Otherworld monster containing a divine power fragment is at least a Lord-Rank existence and possesses self-awareness and extremely high intelligence."

No sooner had she spoken than Third Master Xue, who was at the forefront, suddenly became alert: "Be careful, a big monster is cautiously approaching!"

Everyone responded with vigilance, as if facing a formidable enemy.

Boom boom boom... The ground began to tremble slightly, the movement growing closer.

Perhaps wary of Lord of the Sun Star's power, its footsteps seemed somewhat hesitant as it approached.

Unfortunately, while it hesitated, Lord of the Sun Star had already set his sights on it as a "delicious meal."

Lord of the Sun Star's sharp gaze instantly locked onto the front, and with a whoosh, he transformed into a crimson streak of light, flying over and stomping down on the ground littered with insect carcasses.

Boom!

A crimson-gold chicken leg phantom violently clawed at the ground.

Then, to everyone's dumbfounded amazement, the ground was forcibly blasted open into a giant deep pit, revealing a small section of a gigantic centipede monster's body. Its terrifying maw was hair-raising, flanked by two rows of dense eyes.

In its slightly wary and fearful gaze, there seemed to be an irrepressible greed and desire.

It was clearly a powerful monster possessing a divine power fragment.

And according to Xue Lingling, any monster possessing a divine power fragment could devour painting spirits to strengthen itself.

Therefore, in the true Otherworld, scroll painting spirits and Otherworld monsters were prey for each other.

The more excellent and powerful a painting spirit was, the more "delicious" it was to Otherworld monsters.

"A Rank 20 Lord," Third Master Xue immediately judged its Rank. "Fortunately, its Rank isn't too high."

With that, a fierce, burly man overflowing with Yin Qi charged forward from beside him; he was an eight-star gold scroll.

Xue Zhengheng, Xue Lingling, and other Xue Family elites also made their moves.

At the same time, the Rank 20 insect monster had already burst out of the ground, swaying its body covered in insect legs, and defiantly challenged the Lord of the Sun Star above.

With a contemptuous look, Lord of the Sun Star transformed into his True Pure Yang Body form amidst a dazzling divine light like the scorching sun.

A clear rooster's crow echoed through the heavens and earth, and an invisible force surged forth, making the surrounding dark Zerg Otherworld a few shades brighter.

The entire Zerg Otherworld seemed to become "restless" under this Crowing at Dawn.

The Star Lord's true form flapped his wings and delivered an aerial kick with his chicken claw.

Boom!

The centipede monster that had fiercely lunged to bite immediately slammed its head into the ground, its ferocious head crushed into the earth. Its long body twisted and writhed, and its dense insect legs began to tremble inexplicably.

Almost without hesitation, it turned and fled in panic, but was surrounded by the Xue Family members, blocking its escape.

The centipede monster shrieked in rage. It feared the big rooster behind it, not the Xue Family's Undead System painting spirits.

With a fierce charge, it repelled several gold scroll painting spirits.

Unfortunately, before it could flee much further, it was kicked to the ground by the pursuing Star Lord's true form. It twisted its body, trying to counterattack, but was so disoriented by the dazzling, hurricane-force wings that it couldn't find its bearings.

Bang!

The next second, the Star Lord's true form's sharp beak had already pierced through its head's solid armor. It shrieked in pain, its massive body writhing in agony.

The Xue Family members were not idle either, all controlling their main gold scrolls to launch a powerful encirclement.

However, before they could even exert their full strength, the giant centipede monster was already torn in half under the Star Lord's true form's trampling and tearing, and after a series of death throes and convulsions, it completely lost its Qi.

"Whoa~ Is the experience value that good?"

Wu Xian exclaimed silently in his heart. Lord of the Sun Star, who had just advanced to four and a half stars, was almost ready to advance to five stars with just this one large Otherworld monster.

In contrast, the Xue Family members were still in deep shock.

A four-and-a-half-star gold scroll brutally crushing a Rank 20 Lord-Rank insect monster—could there be a more outrageous or shocking sight than this?

One must know that Lord-Rank was equivalent to a Jade scroll. Their gold scrolls could only contend with it head-on by virtue of their Rank advantage.

But Wu Xian's Lord of the Sun Star was only four and a half stars, completely lacking a Rank advantage.

Even if it was a specialized attack-type scroll, it shouldn't be this absurd, right?

"Hiss~ How do I feel like Little Wu's gold scroll's special attack ratio against insects could reach seven?" Xue Zhengheng was dumbfounded.

"Is it really just a higher form of the Town-House Chicken King?" Xue Lingling's eyes flickered.

By this time, the Star Lord's true form had already easily "dissected" a golden, irregular crystal the size of a fingernail from the centipede monster's skull.

"Is this the so-called divine power fragment?"

Wu Xian picked up the divine power fragment, curiously examining and feeling it.

Why did it feel like a demon core or a Demonic Beast crystal core?

While containing powerful Divine Power internally, it even had a Law power structure similar to the Law Veins of a divine scroll.

Good stuff, absolutely good stuff!

"Exactly," Xue Lingling nodded. "This item is an excellent material whether for refining a divine scroll or making pigments. It can even be used to Cultivate spiritual power. Many strong individuals in the military like to absorb and Cultivate with Shards of Divine Power to strengthen their own power."

Wu Xian understood: "Will this thing be needed for subsequent Jade scrolls and Black scrolls?"

"Of course, but the Law power Veins needs to be similar," Xue Lingling said without hesitation. "Additionally, the difficulty of Jade scrolls lies more in the scroll's conception."

To put it plainly, the true difficulty of Jade scrolls lay in conceiving a scroll with Jade scroll potential.

"Then can one also use the Law Veins structure in the divine power fragment to reverse-engineer a concept?"

Xue Lingling nodded: "Many excellent scroll conceptions today come from that."

Wu Xian, enlightened, raised his hand and handed the divine power fragment to Xue Lingling.

"What are you doing? Just keep it yourself." Xue Lingling felt an inexplicable warmth in her heart, shaking her head and smiling, "My Xue Family isn't short of this one divine power fragment from you."

"Aren't you very short of this thing?" Wu Xian asked, puzzled.

"It's sufficient for now."

"Alright." Wu Xian chuckled, silently putting away the divine power fragment, and also collected the Lord-Rank corpse.

Afterward, the group, led by Third Master Xue, continued deeper into the Zerg Otherworld, searching for Xue Zhengying's whereabouts.

"He's in this vicinity," Third Master Xue said solemnly.

Upon hearing this, Wu Xian immediately released the Day and Night Wandering Gods, dispersing them into a large number of wandering spirits to search everywhere.

A moment later, they didn't find Xue Zhengying, but they did discover many powerful Spirit Master teams and Scroll Master teams nearby, some of whom were wearing various Club uniforms.

It's worth mentioning that the leader Scroll Master of one group seemed to be wearing the Divine Beast Dojo's uniform.

The combat power of the entire team was also quite formidable.

Besides that, an unexpected figure was found in the northwest direction. "Uh, why is the Mayor here too?"

"Chen Shilong?" Xue Lingling frowned in surprise.

"Yeah, he's about seven or eight li away in the northwest direction. Good heavens, two nine-star gold scrolls. Is our Mayor that strong?"

Third Master Xue said, "He is, after all, the Mayor of a city; he wouldn't be in that position without strength."

Immediately after, Wu Xian finally saw a strange figure through the Day and Night Wandering Gods' perspective: a lifeless young man under thirty, with vacant eyes, like a walking corpse.

Between his brows, he bore some resemblance to Xue Zhengheng and Xue Lingling, clearly Xue Zhengying.

After learning Xue Zhengying's location, everyone immediately approached.
