Shocking World War Emperor
Chapter 224: The Real Gift?

Chapter 224: Chapter 224: The Real Gift?

Just as Ling Chen was stunned, Xu Lin had already stepped forward and walked towards the Star Platform along the ancient starry path.

Seeing that Ling Chen hadn’t followed, Xu Lin turned back and said with a smile, "Number Nineteen, what are you thinking about? There’s no need to worry, Lord Dark Night Shura won’t harm us!"

"Um, I know."

Ling Chen came back to his senses, nodded, and followed.

However, his gaze inadvertently fell on the ancient starry path.

Surrounding darkness, cold and black, with only faint light emanating from the two platforms and this ancient starry path.

What struck him as odd was the light from the starry path; it felt strangely familiar.

"Let’s go."

Ling Chen smiled and immediately stepped onto the ancient starry path.

"This is..."

The moment his feet touched the starry path, Ling Chen’s eyes widened in shock and delight, "Star power!"

No wonder the light here felt familiar—it was the power of the stars.

What puzzled him was the surrounding darkness, devoid of any stars. Where did this star power come from?

"Number Nineteen, hurry up, I’m almost at the Star Platform, why are you dawdling there?"

Xu Lin’s voice came from a distance.

He was somewhat baffled; Lord Dark Night Shura had said the Star Platform was here, yet Ling Chen remained lingering on the starry path.

"You go in first!"

Ling Chen called back.

Originally, he had planned to return to the top of the Observatory Tower for cultivation after leaving the Dark Realm.

He had not expected, however, to come across a place so rich in star power!

Moreover, the star power here seemed even purer and more bizarre.

Even without actively absorbing the star power, it would drill into his body.

How could he pass up such a godsend opportunity?

"Alright then!"

Xu Lin nodded and directly entered the heart of the Star Platform.

Ling Chen looked up at the Star Platform, realizing that the ancient starry path was almost ninety-nine zhang long.

"I’ll walk the entirety of the starry path first and see where the star power is the most concentrated for my cultivation!"

Ling Chen made up his mind.

Soon, Ling Chen arrived at the other end of the ancient starry path.

"How strange, the closer to the Star Platform, the more diluted the star power becomes. It’s actually the thickest at the opposite end!"

Ling Chen gave a wry smile.

This was too abnormal.

"Forget it, time to focus on cultivating!"

Ling Chen muttered to himself.

According to Lord Dark Night Shura, the Star Platform should have an extremely rich supply of Spiritual Energy.

Otherwise, every Dark Night Son who came here wouldn’t be able to advance at least one level in their cultivation.

However, for Ling Chen at the moment, cultivating Spiritual Power was not the most crucial thing.

With the Night Moon Sacred Body, advancing to the Primordial Pill Realm was just a matter of time!

And, having learned the Spirit Gathering Array and possessing Primordial Spirit Stones, if he exerted all his effort, he could create a cultivation sanctuary saturated with spiritual energy.

Even if it might not compare to the Star Platform, it would likely not be far off.

However, such a place rich with star power is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Missing it, who knows when the next chance to come here would be.

Lord Dark Night Shura had said that every Dark Night Son only had one chance to come here to the Star Platform.

Ling Chen looked towards the interior of the Star Platform, Xu Lin was already immersed in cultivation.

But what was somewhat strange was that his body was slightly trembling, as if fighting against something.

"Never mind, focus on cultivation first!"

Ling Chen stimulated his Spiritual Power and sped towards the other side of the ancient starry path.

A distance of ninety-nine zhang was merely a matter of breaths.

First, Ling Chen set up the Illusion Spirit Array and then placed several Early Warning Spirit Arrays on both sides of the Illusion Spirit Array.

He stripped off his clothes and began his cultivation.

As his Divine Body was exposed to the starlight, endless star energy furiously surged into Ling Chen’s body.

There was no need for him to control it; the star energy automatically began to temper his physical body.

"How miraculous!"

A flash of amazement swept through Ling Chen’s eyes.

In the past, when he tempered his body, he had to guide the star energy himself.

But now, there was no need for him to lift a finger.

The star energy would automatically refine his body, truly a miraculous phenomenon.

It even felt like the Night Moon Saint Body was cultivating on its own!

"Ah, perhaps this ancient starry path is the real gift intended for us Dark Night Sons?"

Ling Chen’s eyes shone.

"If that’s the case, then I shall fully enjoy it!"

Ling Chen closed his eyes, immersing himself in the tempering of star energy.

His original physical body, after being tempered by the power of the stars and moon, had already reached a level comparable to the early stages of the fifth layer of the Spirit Sea Realm!

And now, with such pure and rich star energy pouring in, Ling Chen’s body entered a stage of rapid advancement.

Two days later, his body was comparable to the initial stages of the sixth layer of the Spirit Sea Realm.

Six days later, comparable to the initial stages of the seventh layer.

After fourteen days, it was comparable to the initial stages of the eighth layer.

"Isn’t this speed a bit too terrifying?"

Ling Chen inwardly marveled.

Cultivating here with star energy, it seemed as though there were no bottlenecks; the body refinement pace skyrocketed straight upwards.

He looked towards the star platform, only to discover that it was now empty.

Xu Lin had already departed.

"Now that I am the only one left here, with no time restrictions, I can completely refine my body to the extreme. Perhaps there’s a chance to cultivate that Body Refining Technique!"

Ling Chen was elated in his heart.

The Body Refining Technique he referred to was called the Undying Star Body.

Once successfully cultivated, just relying on the Physical Power alone would be comparable to a Cultivator of the Primordial Pill Realm!

Moreover, the Undying Star Body has five layers.

If one cultivates to the fifth layer, they could destroy the heavens and obliterate the earth with a mere gesture!

This Undying Star Body was evolved based on the cultivation methods of those possessing the Divine Body of stars.

Though it wasn’t as terrifying as a true Divine Body, it was enough to look down upon the vast majority of strong beings!

In the past, the conditions to cultivate the Undying Star Body were extremely stringent.

One’s physical body must reach a level comparable to the ninth layer of the Spirit Sea Realm before attempting it!

"Continue to cultivate!"

Ling Chen suppressed the excitement in his heart and once more immersed himself in cultivation.

Time slowly passed...

Ling Chen was engrossed in body refinement, unaware of the passing time, but the four Shuras of the Dark Realm were getting restless.

"It’s been twenty days already, why hasn’t Ling Chen emerged yet?"

Ling Xiuluo was extremely anxious.

As a Divine Thought Master, Ling Chen was naturally one of her Spirit Hall members.

Being the Spirit Palace Master, she naturally didn’t want anything to happen to Ling Chen.

The Star Shura said with a wry smile, "I don’t know either! No one has ever cultivated on the star platform for such a long time before!"

"Hmph, it’s all your fault!"

Ling Xiuluo gave the Star Shura a glare and said, "He is clearly a Divine Thought Master with far superior Divine Soul talent than Spiritual Power talent. Why did you let him go there to cultivate?"

There was a hint of a quarreling couple in the scene.

The Star Shura chuckled awkwardly, not daring to reply.

The Night Shura said, "Alright, Dark Night Son’s cultivation on the star platform is a reward. Moreover, based on previous experiences, there won’t be any problems! Ling Xiuluo, just relax! Look, Xu Lin returned just fine, didn’t he? And his cultivation has risen by one and a half layers!"

"Yes, Ling Xiuluo, don’t worry too much. Maybe when Ling Chen comes out, he will have advanced to the Primordial Pill Realm! While you Divine Thought Masters are powerful, your bodies are too fragile. Ling Chen has quite a good talent in the path of Spiritual Power as well, cultivating it a bit wouldn’t do any harm!"

An Xiuluo also spoke up.
