Chapter 365 Awakening after Failure
Gao Xingchen took a deep breath and suppressed his uneasiness. The power of Fire Cloud Evil God was beyond doubt, but he believed that every difficulty was an opportunity, and as long as he could find a breakthrough, he could turn danger into safety. He gently patted Nan Li's hand, signaling her to be at ease, and then squatted down and gently stroked Xiao Bai's soft fur.
"Xiaobai, can you feel the weakness of Fire Cloud Evil God?" Gao Xingchen asked softly. He knew that Xiaobai had a keen perception and might be able to discover details that they had overlooked.
Xiaobai blinked his big watery eyes, as if he understood Gao Xingchen's words. He circled Gao Xingchen a few times, his nostrils twitching slightly, as if he was trying to catch some breath. After a moment, he suddenly raised his head and growled in the direction of Huoyun Evil God, with a hint of solemnity in his eyes.
"Xiaobai, you mean..." Gao Xingchen's heart moved. Did Xiaobai discover something? He followed Xiaobai's gaze and carefully observed the Fire Cloud Evil God's every move.
"His power fluctuates unsteadily, as if he is forcibly maintaining his current form." Nan Li frowned slightly, she also noticed something unusual, "You see, after each attack, he needs a short pause, this is very unusual."
Gao Xingchen nodded. Nan Li's observation coincided with Xiao Bai's reaction. Although the new form of Fire Cloud Evil God was powerful, it was not without weaknesses, at least in terms of energy consumption.
"This is our chance!" Gao Xingchen's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, "As long as we can delay time and find his flaws, we can achieve the final victory!"
Nan Li also understood Gao Xingchen's plan. She clenched the sword in her hand, with a determined light flashing in her beautiful eyes. "Okay, let's fight together!"
Xiaobai seemed to have sensed the two's determination, for it excitedly jumped around them and made cheerful noises, as if cheering them on.
However, just as Gao Xingchen and Nan Li were preparing to make their next plan, something strange happened! The Fire Cloud Evil God suddenly howled to the sky, and an even more terrifying force erupted from his body, sweeping across the entire desolate valley...
The violent energy shockwave knocked Gao Xingchen and Nan Li to the ground. Xiaobai screamed and turned into a white light, protecting Nan Li. Gao Xingchen struggled to get up, and the scene in front of him frightened him: Huoyun Evil God seemed to have completely lost his mind, his body was wrapped in violent energy, and his originally hideous face was even more distorted and terrifying, like a demon from the abyss.
"Oh no, he's going to self-destruct!" Nan Li's face changed drastically. If such a huge amount of energy is fully released, the entire Nine Star Realm will be reduced to nothing.
"We must not let him succeed!" Gao Xingchen gritted his teeth and tried to suppress the blood surging in his body. He knew that this was their last chance. If they could not stop the Fire Cloud Evil God, everything would be ruined.
"Xiaobai, what should we do?" Nanli asked anxiously. At this moment, she had placed all her hopes on Gao Xingchen and Xiaobai.
There was a trace of struggle in Xiaobai's eyes, as if it had made some difficult decision. It let out a sharp cry at Gao Xingchen and Nanli, and then its entire body emitted a dazzling white light, enveloping them.
"Xiaobai, you..." Nanli exclaimed, not understanding what Xiaobai wanted to do.
"It is burning its own original power to buy time for us!" Gao Xingchen's face was solemn. He understood Xiaobai's intention from the resolute eyes.
"No, I can't let you do this!" Nan Li wanted to stop Xiao Bai, but was held back by Gao Xingchen.
"This is our only chance. Believe me, and believe Xiaobai!" Gao Xingchen held Nanli's hand tightly, his eyes determined. He knew that if they wanted to stop the Fire Cloud Evil God, they could only rely on the power of the Heart of Stars, and Xiaobai's choice gave them the last chance.
With Xiaobai's sacrifice, the violent energy of the Fire Cloud Evil God was temporarily suppressed. Gao Xingchen and Nan Li seized this precious time, sat cross-legged, and immersed their minds in the Heart of the Stars, trying to comprehend the deeper power contained therein.
“The Heart of the Stars is the purest and most yang force in the world, and contains endless mysteries. Only when you truly comprehend its true meaning can you unleash its true power!” Xiaobai's weak voice sounded in their ears, guiding them in the direction of progress.
"The heart of the stars is pure and yang, endless..." Gao Xingchen murmured to himself, Xiaobai's words kept echoing in his mind. He vaguely felt that he seemed to have touched an invisible barrier. As long as he could break this barrier, he would be able to gain new power.
"The heart of the stars is connected with our hearts. Only when we focus on it can we realize its true meaning." Nan Li's voice was like a faint orchid in a valley, ringing in Gao Xingchen's ears, gradually calming his originally restless heart.
With Nanli's help, Gao Xingchen gradually entered a mysterious realm. He felt as if he was in a vast starry sky, with countless stars shining brightly. His heart also turned into a bright star, echoing the stars in the sky.
"The power of the stars is omnipotent. Wherever the heart sets its mind, it can go anywhere..." A flash of inspiration suddenly occurred to Gao Xingchen, and he finally understood that the power of the heart of the stars did not come from outside, but from themselves, from the belief and determination deep in their hearts to never give up!
"Nanli, I seem to... have found a way!" Gao Xingchen opened his eyes, his eyes flashing with excitement and excitement.
"Me too!" Nan Li also opened his eyes at the same time, his eyes also filled with joy and anticipation.
Under Xiaobai's guidance, they found the door to the deeper power of the Heart of the Star. Next, they will face even more severe tests, but they believe that as long as they join hands with each other, they will be able to overcome all difficulties and ultimately stop the conspiracy of the Fire Cloud Evil God!
Xiaobai smiled weakly, as if he had used up his last bit of strength, and turned into a white light, sinking into Nanli's brows.
"Xiaobai!" Nanli exclaimed and wanted to stop it, but found that it was too late.
"It's fine, it just fell into a deep sleep. It is continuing to protect you in its own way." Gao Xingchen comforted Nanli, and at the same time his heart was full of gratitude and admiration. Xiaobai was willing to sacrifice himself to help them. He will never forget this friendship.
"Thank you, Xiaobai." Nanli gently stroked her forehead, where Xiaobai's breath seemed to still remain. She swore that she must become stronger so as not to let Xiaobai down.
"Where should we go next?" Nan Li looked at Gao Xingchen, his eyes full of determination.
Gao Xingchen pondered for a moment, and the message Xiaobai passed to him before his death emerged in his mind. He slowly said: "Xiaobai said that if you want to completely control the power of the Heart of Stars, you need to find the origin of the Heart of Stars - the Land of Falling Stars!"
"The place where stars fell?" Nan Li frowned slightly. She had never heard of this place.
"According to Xiaobai's description, the Land of Falling Stars is an extremely secret space. Only the guardian of the Heart of the Stars can sense its existence." Gao Xingchen explained, "Xiaobai has told me everything he knows. Believe me, we will definitely be able to find the Land of Falling Stars!"
There was a determined light flashing in Gao Xingchen's eyes. He believed that as long as he found the place where the stars fell, he would be able to unlock all the secrets of the Heart of the Stars, gain even more powerful strength, and ultimately defeat the Fire Cloud Evil God and protect the peace of the Nine Star Realm!
"Okay, I believe you!" Nan Li nodded and agreed without hesitation. She was full of confidence in Gao Xingchen, and believed that the bond between them could overcome all difficulties and obstacles!
The two of them gathered their hearts and, following the last bit of guidance from Xiaobai, set out on a journey to the Land of Falling Stars. What challenges and opportunities await them? What changes will happen to their relationship? Everything is still unknown...
Xiaobai's sacrifice was like a brand, deeply engraved in the hearts of Gao Xingchen and Nan Li. They knew that sadness and self-blame would not help, and only by improving their strength as soon as possible could they live up to Xiaobai's efforts and truly protect the peace of the Nine Star Realm.
Following the instructions left by Xiaobai, Gao Xingchen and Nanli headed west and finally found a secret entrance to a ruin in a barren Gobi desert. This ruin was sealed by a powerful ban and would have been impossible to find if it weren't for the guidance of the breath left by Xiaobai.
"Xingchen, can you feel it? The aura here is so similar to the Heart of the Stars..." Nanli clenched the dagger in his hand, feeling the fluctuations in the air.
"Well, this should be the entrance to the Land of Falling Stars." Gao Xingchen nodded, took a deep breath, mobilized the power of the Star Heart in his body, and slowly placed his palm on the restriction.
hum-
Following a slight vibration, the restriction slowly opened, revealing a deep passage leading underground.
"Let's go in." Gao Xingchen held Nan Li's hand, the two smiled at each other, and stepped into the ruins together.
The interior of the ruins is a different world, not as eerie and scary as imagined, but full of ancient and mysterious atmosphere. The towering stone pillars are carved with intricate patterns, and the walls are covered with colorful murals, as if telling ancient legends.
However, the seemingly peaceful ruins conceal murderous intent.
"Be careful!" Gao Xingchen grabbed Nan Li and dodged a sudden attack. Suddenly, a row of sharp spikes appeared on the originally calm ground. If you were stabbed, the consequences would be disastrous.
"This relic is indeed not simple." A trace of solemnity flashed in Nanli's eyes. He clenched the dagger in his hand and looked around vigilantly.
Next, they encountered a series of traps and attacks from guardian beasts. These traps were ingeniously designed and hard to defend against, and the guardian beasts were extremely powerful and ferocious.
But Gao Xingchen and Nan Li did not back down. They relied on their tacit cooperation and extraordinary strength to overcome danger again and again. After experiencing countless life and death tests, their determination became stronger and their trust in each other became deeper.
Finally, they came to the deepest part of the ruins, and a magnificent palace appeared in front of them. The door of the palace was closed, and there were two bright stars carved on it, emitting dazzling light. It was the pattern of the Heart of the Stars!
"It seems that we are getting closer and closer to the truth." Gao Xingchen took a deep breath and slowly pushed open the door of the palace.
The palace was extremely empty, with only an ancient altar standing in the center. On the altar was an ancient secret book, emitting a faint light.
Gao Xingchen and Nan Li looked at each other, walked forward cautiously, and opened the secret book.
The secret book records a technique called "Star Soul Technique", which is said to have been created by the first guardian of the Heart of the Stars in ancient times. It can bring the power of the Heart of the Stars to its fullest.
Gao Xingchen and Nan Li were overjoyed and immediately began to study it carefully.
Time passed minute by minute, they were immersed in cultivation, forgetting time and forgetting everything.
until……
"Do you think that you can stop me just by getting the Star Soul Secret? How naive!" A cold voice suddenly sounded in their ears, breaking the silence in the palace.
Gao Xingchen and Nan Li suddenly woke up and looked up, only to see a figure in a black robe, emitting an evil aura, slowly walking out of the shadows.
"Who are you?" Gao Xingchen asked in a deep voice with a hint of vigilance in his eyes.
"Who am I? Soon, you will know." The black-robed man smiled sinisterly, "It's okay to tell you, I am one of the four guardians under the Fire Cloud Evil God, Shadow!"
"Fire Cloud Evil God!" Gao Xingchen and Nan Li's faces changed, and an ominous premonition suddenly arose in their hearts.
"That's right, my master already knows that you have obtained the Star Soul Secret, and he has ordered me to retrieve the secret book and... kill you!" A trace of murderous intent flashed in Shadow's eyes, and he slowly stretched out his hand. A powerful pressure instantly enveloped the entire palace.
A war is about to break out!
The appearance of Shadow was like a bucket of cold water that extinguished the hopes of Gao Xingchen and Nan Li. The Star Soul Art was indeed powerful, but they still had no chance of winning against one of the four guardians under the Fire Cloud Evil God. The two of them fought together, but were easily repelled by Shadow and were seriously injured.
"Xingchen, what should we do?" Nan Li covered his chest, a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, and looked at Gao Xingchen worriedly.
Gao Xingchen did not speak, but held the Star Soul Art tightly in his hand, staring at Shadow firmly. He knew that now was not the time to be sad and desperate, they had to find a way to survive in order to avenge Xiaobai and protect the peace of the Nine Star Realm.
"Hmph, a dying struggle!" Shadow sneered and launched an attack again. The powerful force forced Gao Xingchen and Nanli into a desperate situation.
At this critical moment, the Star Soul Art suddenly emitted a dazzling light, covering Gao Xingchen and Nan Li. The two felt a powerful force surging into their bodies, and their injuries recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye. At the same time, their control over the Heart of the Stars became more handy.
"This is..." Gao Xingchen and Nan Li looked at each other and saw the surprise and joy in each other's eyes. Could it be that the Star Soul Art played a role at the critical moment?
"Damn it!" Seeing that the situation was not good, Shadow wanted to stop the operation of the Star Soul Technique, but found that he could not get close to Gao Xingchen and Nanli at all.
"The power of the Falling Star Land is not something you can get your hands on!" Gao Xingchen snorted coldly and mobilized the power of the Star Heart in his body. A dazzling beam of light shot out from his hand and hit the shadow directly.
"Ah——" Shadow screamed as he was hit by the beam of light. His body instantly turned into ashes and disappeared into the air.
The crisis was resolved, and Gao Xingchen and Nan Li finally breathed a sigh of relief. They knew that all this was due to the Xinghun Jue, and it was also an opportunity that Xiaobai had bought with his life.
"Xiaobai, rest in peace, we will definitely avenge you!" Gao Xingchen roared to the sky, his voice filled with sadness and anger.
"Xingchen..." Nanli gently held Gao Xingchen's hand and comforted her silently.
The two of them practiced in seclusion in the Land of Falling Stars, concentrating on comprehending the mysteries of the Star Soul Art. Their strength increased day by day, and their control over the Heart of the Stars became more and more handy.
Finally, on a full moon night, Gao Xingchen and Nan Li successfully broke through the bottleneck and their strength reached a new level.
Just as they were about to leave the ruins, a mysterious voice suddenly sounded in their ears: "Children, be careful... Fire Cloud Evil God is brewing a bigger conspiracy, and the Nine Star Realm is about to face a catastrophe..."
The voice disappeared, and Gao Xingchen and Nan Li looked at each other, their hearts filled with confusion and uneasiness. What was the new conspiracy of the Fire Cloud Evil God? How should they deal with this impending catastrophe?
With hatred for the Fire Cloud Evil God, Gao Xingchen and Nan Li embarked on the road of revenge. Their eyes were full of determination and resoluteness. In order to protect the peace of the Nine Star Realm and to avenge Xiao Bai, they would do anything!
