Death Grip
Disaster Star Descends, as the second form of Lonely Star Sun Blade, is naturally much stronger than the first form, Killer Lone Star. Killer Lone Star condenses Vital Energy at the sword's edge, creating a curved slash forward, while Disaster Star Descends condenses it into a point, breaking through the surface, making its power several times stronger than the first form.
Xing Chen suddenly thrusts the Lonely Star Sword upward. As he strikes, starlight bursts forth like a dream, and amidst this enchanting starlight, a point of Black Light is clearly visible at the sword tip.
"Whoosh!" As the fire dragon approaches, the Lonely Star Sword trembles violently in the air. The black point at the sword tip shines brightly, and then a beam of Black Light shoots out, piercing straight through the roaring fire dragon.
"Whoosh..." Xing Chen's body shakes and sways as he quickly supports himself with the sword. Although this strike shattered Luo Tong's Fire Dragon Devouring the Sun, his own Vital Energy has been completely exhausted. The move Disaster Star Descends drained all of his Vital Energy, and even took away part of his Soul Power. This was what allowed him to execute this move; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to use it at all.
"How is this possible? My Fire Dragon Devouring the Sun can hardly be stopped even by opponents of the same level, yet you..." Luo Tong looks at Xing Chen with a pale face, unable to believe it. He is in the Soul Refinement Realm, a whole realm above Xing Chen. In this situation, using such powerful Martial Arts still couldn't defeat him.
"Luo Tong, your strength is impressive; I am not your match." After catching his breath for a while, Xing Chen looks up at Luo Tong. There is no doubt about Luo Tong's strength; if it were a life-and-death battle, he would definitely be the one to die.
"Young Master Chen, you flatter me. How could my strength compare to yours?" Luo Tong shakes his head, forcing himself not to think about those things. In any case, he is confident that he would win in an actual duel. Regarding the upcoming Struggle for the Position of Leader, Luo Tong has no worries at all. With the Eclipse Sun Sword in hand and combined with the Eclipse Sun Sword Technique, he believes he could even stand against someone from the Earth Soul Realm without losing.
The Soul Refinement Realm is divided into three levels: Human Soul Realm, Earth Soul Realm, and Soul Realm. Breaking through to the Soul Realm leads to the Yang Spirit Realm.
Xing Chen glances at Luo Tong again but says nothing. Although he doesn't understand why Luo Tong's strength has surged so dramatically, he believes that even if he asked Luo Tong, he wouldn't get an answer. So it's better not to ask.
"Even Luo Tong has reached the Soul Refinement Realm, yet I am still lingering in the Body Refinement Realm." With that thought, Xing Chen takes out a jade bottle containing a Nourishing Soul Pill: "Forty percent chance; it's worth a try." A determined look appears in Xing Chen's eyes. He must secure one of the positions of Helmsman in the upcoming Struggle for the Position of Leader, so now he must take a risk.
"I'll go for it." Xing Chen grits his teeth and then pours out the Nourishing Soul Pill from the jade bottle and swallows it immediately. Instantly, he feels as if his abdomen is on fire; the powerful medicinal effect causes his entire body to tremble violently, and his face turns bright red.
On the other side, after Luo Tong and Xing Chen finished their match, someone came to call him to meet the leader Yun Qing. Soon, Luo Tong excitedly followed that person to the Azure Cloud Gang Council Hall, where the leader Yun Qing was sitting in the main seat, looking at him with piercing eyes, a powerful aura instantly overwhelming him.
"Disciple Luo Tong, I pay my respects to the leader. May I ask what instructions you have for me?" Faced with Yun Qing's imposing presence, Luo Tong felt no inclination to resist at all and immediately knelt down with a thud.
"Luo Tong, your talent is quite good. I remember when you joined the gang, you were only at Body Refinement Level Eight. In just over half a month, you have reached the Soul Refinement Realm. This shows your astonishing potential," Yun Qing said as he looked at Luo Tong, taking a moment before slowly speaking.
"The leader overpraises me. I... I am dull-witted and only know to work hard in cultivation and be loyal to the leader," Luo Tong stammered in excitement upon hearing Yun Qing's words, while in his heart he was shouting wildly: "I knew it! I knew that I, Luo Tong, would not be overlooked in the Azure Cloud Gang. The leader has indeed noticed me."
"Remember the upcoming Struggle for the Position of Leader. If you encounter Xing Chen, you are only allowed to lose, not win," Yun Qing casually nodded and then looked sharply at Luo Tong.
"Boom!" Yun Qing's words were undoubtedly a thunderclap for Luo Tong. After working so hard for so long, even using his only precious pill for this upcoming Struggle for the Position of Leader, he had hoped to achieve victory. But now all his efforts seemed to have been in vain.
"Why? Leader, why? Isn't the position of Helmsman meant only for the strong? Isn't this selection supposed to choose those hidden strong ones? Why do you want me to lose to Xing Chen? What exactly am I lacking compared to him?" After a moment of shock, Luo Tong said defiantly. At this moment, he had completely forgotten his fear of Yun Qing. All he wanted was to understand why this was happening.
"Hmph! My disciple, Yun Qing, will never allow defeat at the hands of an ordinary disciple, even if that disciple is stronger than them," Yun Qing said with a fierce glare.
"Leader, I beg you for a fair opportunity. I swear I will be loyal to you from now on. Please give me a chance; I will definitely prove myself!" As he begged while knocking his head on the ground, by this time, Yun Qing had already left the hall. No matter how much Luo Tong pleaded, he could not change the outcome.
"Ah—why? Why? Why is there such injustice towards me? Why? I refuse to accept it! I refuse!" After standing in the hall for a while, Luo Tong suddenly let out a roar of unwillingness: "Xing Chen, why is your luck so good? You came here and were immediately accepted as a Closed-Door Disciple, and now you've shattered my last glimmer of hope. Why? Ah—"
……
"Boom, boom, boom..." Sitting cross-legged, Xing Chen was overwhelmed by a roaring sound in his mind as the immense medicinal power rampaged within him. With his current strength, he was unable to control this massive medicinal force.
"Damn it! The power of the Nourishing Soul Pill is too great; I can't control it!" Clenching his lips tightly, Xing Chen suddenly opened his eyes wide and quickly drew out the nearby Lonely Star Sword. He made a cut on his finger, and blood gushed out instantly while the excess medicinal power flowed out through this wound.
"Soul Refinement Realm, I must reach Soul Refinement Realm..." A persistent light shone in Xing Chen's eyes as he controlled the medicinal power within him, continuously impacting the Bottleneck of the Soul Refinement Realm. However, it was of no use; no matter how hard he tried, the Bottleneck showed no signs of budging.
"Success or failure hinges on this one attempt; I’ll give it my all." Xing Chen's eyes gleamed with madness as all the medicinal power within him gathered in one place and surged toward the Bottleneck. A loud 'boom' echoed in his mind, and Xing Chen felt a moment of clarity before he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
However, excitement appeared on his face because he had finally broken through the Bottleneck of the Soul Refinement Realm. But the next moment, the smile on Xing Chen's face froze.
"Something's not right. The Soul Refinement Realm allows for a soul projection of fifty meters, but I can only project a little over twenty meters. Moreover, my Vital Energy has only doubled; it doesn't compare to the Soul Refinement Realm at all!" Xing Chen's expression changed repeatedly. He was certain that he was no longer in the Body Refinement Realm, but this was definitely not the Soul Refinement Realm, as he was significantly weaker in every aspect compared to it.
"That's right, this is the Half-Step Soul Refinement Realm. It must be the Half-Step Soul Refinement Realm..." After a while, Xing Chen finally realized what realm he was currently in: the Half-Step Soul Refinement Realm, situated between the Body Refinement Realm and the Soul Refinement Realm. This realm was stronger than the Body Refinement Realm but weaker than the Soul Refinement Realm.
"Half-Step Soul Refinement is still better than my Refining Body Ninth Level. Knowing my current realm, I can only shake my head helplessly; it seems I still have some time before I can break through to the Soul Refinement Realm."
"Forget it; there's no need to think too much about it. I should focus on recovering from the impact I just experienced. Otherwise, tomorrow's Struggle for the Position of Leader will be too disadvantageous for me." Xing Chen sat cross-legged to recuperate. The impact from this attempt to break through to the Soul Refinement Realm was much greater than last time; he would need at least a night to recover fully.
