Chapter 670: Chapter 632 Soaring Star River_1

Within Golden Feather City, Pang Jian began by attempting to touch with the tip of his finger.

"Hiss!"

Prepared as he was, the moment his fingertip came into contact with the golden feather, it was instantly cut by the feather’s sharp divine light.

It was a sharpness carried to the extreme, as if it sought to pierce through the heavens’ miasma, to bore through the boundless darkness, to split Purgatory from top to bottom with the Power of Gold!

It carried the Tao of the Demon Emperor Jin Yu!

Jin Yu had always been in pursuit of breaking through the heavens.

The Heaven Forbidden of Purgatory, the endless darkness below, even the Boundary Wall of Purgatory, seemed to be the exits he was searching for.

Long, long ago, so long ago that the Demon Race had not yet become Demon Gods in the First Realm of Purgatory, this Demon Emperor Jin Yu was already thinking of a way out.

His lingering Divine Power still bears the imprint of his obsession!

Pang Jian was unclear on how many attempts he had made, nor did he know what became of him in the end, but the piercing intent within the golden feather left him profoundly shocked.

Drawing his finger back, the cut healed instantly, and he closed his eyes to carefully comprehend the profound mysteries of the Power of Gold.

In that brief moment of contact with the feather, he knew that the Demon Emperor named Jin Yu had a deeper understanding of this power than Fan Ao, who had achieved Godhood through the Great Tao of Gold.

Unable to absorb it into his dantian, he simply stayed within Golden Feather City, studying the Demon Emperor’s leftover golden feather, grasping the sharp golden mysteries.

...

Above the Mysterious Fog,

Beneath a remote part of the Star River, a faintly glowing figure quietly emerged from the boundless Misty Sea.

"Finally, I’ve left."

Pang Jian, resuming his normal height, gazed at the endless gray Mysterious Fog, still faintly sensing the location of his True Body.

Because he had his True Body as a point of reference, he didn’t lose his way and could identify up from down, finding the correct direction.

"Thanks to you, I’ve come out as well."

The Source Demon from inside the small world of the sword, with a handsome face full of smiles, said, "After so many years, I can finally soar in the Star River beyond Purgatory!"

"Pang Jian..."

The Goddess of Cold Crystal, steering the Divine Platform, slowly descended from the sky above.

With a skin of ice and bones of jade, her cold aura radiated off her exquisite oval face.

She wore a silver robe embroidered with snowflakes, a star necklace hung around her pure white neck, delicate earrings dangled from her crystalline earlobes, and a Divine Crystal Bracelet adorned her bright wrist.

She had evidently made a deliberate effort to adorn her appearance.

With these exquisite accessories as a backdrop, she, already beautiful, appeared even more dazzlingly cold and captivating.

She was like a proudly solitary frost flower, far removed from the world, blooming alone atop an ice peak.

She usually kept to herself, unaccustomed to waiting for others, but knowing that Pang Jian was coming, she had silently waited for a long time.

"It’s that star."

She stretched her hand toward a star in Pang Jian’s view, as large as a disc, and softly said, "Ying Yue and I have examined it carefully, there’s no activity from other God Spirits nearby. That unidentified star above has no wise beings appearing, only Youkui and that Star Devourer."

Pang Jian nodded and said, "You shouldn’t have taken the risk to see me."

According to their agreement, he would not meet with Han Yi and Ying Yue face-to-face. They were supposed to communicate briefly through Divine Consciousness within a certain range, and he would receive all messages related to Youkui.

"I know I shouldn’t," Han Yi pursed her lips and whispered, "I just felt that I had to come see you in person."

"Han Yi, now that you’ve met, come back at once!"

The divine voice of the Goddess of Cold Crystal chided from the star-shaped necklace around her slender neck, "At any time, you must not let others know we’ve had contact with him! Honestly, I tell you, but you don’t listen, insisting on being so stubborn!"

Han Yi’s icy eyes flashed with a hint of joy as she said, "It’s good that I’ve met him."

Just like Pang Jian, who had returned to his normal form, she gave Pang Jian a shallow smile.

Immediately afterward, she tossed a star-shaped crystal token to Pang Jian and said, "The three of us can communicate with this. Remember, don’t let other gods find out."

With those words, she flew swiftly away.

"Youkui is a god of the Ghost Clan, skilled in divine skills related to the soul; I’m aware of Soul Capture, Soul Forbidden, and Ghost River."

"Soul Capture involves extracting the soul of a living being; all Wisdom Races, including us gods, are subject to its influence."

"Soul Forbidden can restrict a part of your soul’s power, weakening your connection with your true self."

"As for the Ghost River, it’s a mysterious river formed by most god spirits of the Ghost Clan collecting the souls of the strong. The Ghost River can act as a weapon and can also be used by Youkui to hide souls..."

After Han Yi disappeared, the voice continued transmitting from the star crystal token.

Source Demon suddenly exclaimed, "So, He is actually that powerful."

While Pang Jian and Han Yi were speaking, he observed Han Yi with the Demon God’s secret skills and discovered that the goddess who had forged her godhood with the Power of Extreme Cold had terrifying divine power surging inside her.

The cultivation of Han Yi’s divine body was also very solid, and her understanding of the Rules of Extreme Cold was much higher than that of other gods of extreme cold he had encountered before.

"She is very beautiful and must have many pursuers. Moreover, she is powerful enough."

"If she had a strong backer and enough resources, she could hope to become a High God!"

"Pang Jian, even though the Star River is vast, High Gods are very rare."

"To my knowledge, there seems to be less than a hundred High Gods currently, while the number of Middle-level Gods and Low-rank Gods combined reaches into the thousands. It’s the High Gods like Zimo and He Motian who are the overlords of the Outer Domain Galaxy."

"Even I have always longed to become a High God. This woman has the qualifications to become a High God, and she has feelings for you; you might want to seriously consider that."

"From my professional standpoint, her potential to become a High God is stronger than that of the Moon Goddess."

After leaving the Purgatory World, Source Demon suddenly became very active, as if he had changed into someone else, incessantly persuading Pang Jian, "Take her down, help her become a High God, and you will have a strong support."

"Hey, if there are quite a few High Gods who change their attitude towards the Human True God, maybe the entire Human Race’s situation could change!"

"Pang Jian, think about it, if you could..."

Source Demon was dancing and shrieking excitedly inside the sword.

"Shut up!"

After rebuking sharply, Pang Jian contained all his aura and headed towards the star that housed Youkui.

His Immortal Primordial Spirit, free from Mysterious Fog, sped through the cold and desolate Star River, even faster than in Purgatory.

Various energies pervasive throughout the star space were absorbed as he sped along, integrating into his viscera, refining his Divine Bones, and being gathered into his Star Acupoints.

The Immortal Primordial Spirit, flying through the Star River away from its true body, was completely self-sustaining.

He began to sense that as long as the flesh was not torn, it seemed that even injuries to internal Divine Bones and viscera could be repaired through the various energies in the Star River.

"Star Space!"

After a long inner howl, he sped up even faster, feeling like a fish in the ocean, a bird soaring through the sky.
