Thousand Snowpiles, Ten Thousand Clouds.

The woman’s weapons made her identity abundantly clear.

“I never imagined that Connecting Valley actually had a Primordial True Spirit.” Lady Wei’s expression was indefinitely gloomy.

Earthly Brave Star Sun Yueying’s manifestation immediately pervaded the underground palace with an aura like she was lifting weights.

Sun Yueying’s expression issued her command. “If you still do not leave, I will make your Star Names Starfall here.”

“So arrogant. An Earthly Star dares to be so aggressive, I want to see just how strong you are, Primordial Star Name.” Lü Meng smirked.1

Everyone in Star World knew what a Primordial Star Name was, but those that truly traded blows were far and few between. These Star Names of the Heavenly Spirits and Earthly Fiends Legion that followed the Purple Rose Star Emperor were reputed to be the origin of all Star Names and were in possession of Star Energy far stronger than others. Lü Meng was unconvinced, raising her Hero Slayer and bounding over for an attack.

Not only her, even Heaven Devouring Demon King Xiao Mohe also shifted her gaze to the Primordial Star Name.

Sun Yueying raised her hand. Her iron club Thousand Snowpiles blocked Lü Meng’s attack. Her movement was so plain and unhurried. Lü Meng’s Star Energy flared; her Innate Skill “Accumulation” was able to accelerate the combat experience she acquired from battle and adapt to any attack pattern by the enemy. Against a Primordial Star Name, Lü Meng’s words were disdainful, yet her attacks did not dare be careless.

The Accumulation Innate Skill allowed Lü Rumeng to be able to handle Sun Yueying’s alternating tactics, but the Earthly Brave Star’s attacks still caught her by surprise.

After the iron club blocked, Sun Yueying spun on her feet. Rainbow light splashed, and her right hand’s spear retracted then stabbed. Spear-light flashed, releasing flames.

Hero Slayer intercepted the attack, but Sun Yueying’s club followed close behind.

Lü Rumeng sidestepped and brandished her lance.

Sun Yueying once again changed tactics. The iron club and long spear weapons in her hands were perfect, their attack and defense flawless. The spear attacked at range while the club attacked at close range. With both long and short combined, she was like a rising dragon.

Lü Rumeng had no time to deal with this. Relying on her Innate Skill, she barely adapted to Sun Yueying’s assault.

“Dark Rank: Broken Hero!”

General Of Southern Wu Lü Meng used her Dark Rank a third time to try and break this situation where she was being pressured, but Sun Yueying’s iron club blocked her. Broken Hero was defeated, and the club landed on her shoulder. Lü Meng’s face promptly contorted in pain.

The spear swept forth, and Lü Rumeng was knocked back.

“Primordial Star Name, face This King!” Xiao Mohe slaughtered another dozen Lü Clan disciples and charged out of their encirclement. Instantly, she arrived in front of Sun Yueying and used Dark Rank Polo In The Dark.

The greatsword’s black light blossomed, descending upon Sun Yueying’s entire body.

The Heaven Devouring Demon King’s powerful spirit was able to make any Star General feel intimidated, except for…a Primordial Star Name.

Earthly Brave Star Sun Yueying swept her iron club forth and shouted, “Hanging Scroll Drops Flowers Like Snow!”2 Using her Dark Rank, the killing intent on her weapons whirled like a cyclone, blowing away all of Xiao Mohe’s polo flowers.

The Demon King’s figure suddenly arrived beside Sun Yueying, her swordtip emitting a chilling glint. All of the scattered dark killing intent instantly condensed into even larger and darker flowers.

Each flower had asuras, demons, and fallen buddhas, as if hell had blossomed in front of Sun Yueying, surprisingly even more brilliant than the Earth Rank Darkness Mandala.

Lü Meng and Chen Mo were astonished.

Phoenix Dark Rank Rank.

Scentless Kara!!!3

Sun Yueying’s slender brow slightly rose. Her spear moved, and red light gushed forth, becoming countless divine birds that flew off and dispersed. These birds spat out red clouds and devoured everything else. Astonishingly, this was Dark Rank Hundred Birds Swallowing Clouds Slash!

“Hm?” Xiao Mohe’s purple pupils finally showed a fluctuation. Her Phoenix Dark Rank was surprisingly stopped by an Earthly Star’s Dark Rank.

The Hundred Birds Devouring Clouds Slash cut down the Scentless Kara. Sun Yueying stormed over, thrusting her spear at Xiao Mohe.

Xiao Mohe brandished her weapon.

At this time, Lü Meng also attacked. Primordial Earthly Stars had a powerful legend in Star World. Their Heaven, Earth, Dark, and Yellow Techniques were reportedly granted to them by the Xuannü of the Nine Heavens. They surpassed Star World and stood upon Maiden Mountain. If one was able to kill a Primordial Star Name, they would be able to learn those techniques. Although the weapons were different, once a Star General reached a first-rate level, connecting one method to ten thousand, learning the techniques was not impossible. There were Star Generals in Star World who were lucky enough to obtain the inheritance of Primordial Star Generals like this.

Compared to Li Si or the Five Emperors Seal, clearly the Primordial Star Name had a greater allure.

Sun Yueying’s hands wielded Thousand Snowpiles and Ten Thousand Clouds to trade blows with the two Star Generals, handling them with ease. “Sun Li, This General is coming over.” Yu Ziyu ignored her severe injuries and controlled the Ten Thousand Ancient Weapons Grave to attack as well.

As one of the Five Great Generals, the King Of Bronze, Yu Ziqi was unwilling to miss the opportunity to battle a Primordial Star Name.

“Elder Sister.” The color drained from Yu Ji’s face as she wanted to step forward.

“You can’t go.” Chen Mo seized her wrist.

“They’re Heavenly Star Great Generals. If you go, you’ll only distract your big sister, which would instead place her in danger.” Chen Mo wrinkled his brow. Xiao Mohe, Lü Meng, and Yu Ziqi practically all made an outburst of strength. As expected, a Heaven Rank was inevitably about to appear. Given Yu Ji’s strength, joining in would be suicide.

“Then what do we do?” Yuan Ji was unwilling to see this.

Chen Mo looked around. The Lü Clan disciples wanted to advance and establish a support array. As he expected, they were torn to shreds by the waves of killing intent. Earthly Immortal magic energy was completely decoration in the face of a confrontation between top-notch Star Generals, unable to withstand a single blow.

At this time, Lady Wei coldly glared at Chen Mo, ordering the twelve White Horse Cavalry to attack.

As long as they killed Yuan Ji and Wang Yuanji, the last two totems would be lit. Then, the Five Emperors Seal and Li Si’s True Work would be in her pocket.

Lady Wei had no interest in the Primordial Star Name, for she was aware that she could not possibly be a match for her. She activated the Star Splitting Shears.

The twelve White Horse Cavalry stamped white light and charged.

Bright Beauty Of The Sun Yu Ji dodged the Star Splitting Shears, then she used her Earth Rank “New Moon Withering.”4 Unlike Blood Charming The Masses, New Moon Withering was a trump card that used the Star Energy that she could currently support as the cost. Once used, she would have no follow up.

Blood Kiss Moonlight’s sickle-light drew the shape of a crescent moon, brightly flashing in midair. The charging twelve White Horse Cavalry all disintegrated under the crescent’s light.

Lady Wei controlled the Autumn Waters Concentrated Deceased, writing every kind of stroke, using Star Magic.

Chen Mo ingested one of his Astral Crystals, brandishing the Northern Dipper to barely disperse the Star Magic, but Lady Wei apparently already planned for this, “How many can you protect.” Lady Wei’s Divine Intent moved. The Heavenly Spirit Astral Treasure, Star Splitting Shears, flashed and released two starlights towards the unconscious Wang Yuanji leaning against the corner.

Seven Black Turtle Flying Swords formed a shield that blocked the Star Splitting Shears.

Lady Wei’s expression immediately was somewhat aggravated: “Stupid, since you are a Servant Star giving thoughts to other Star Generals, you are simply too stupid.”

“So what.” Chen Mo brandished Northern Dipper, attacking head on.

Lady Wei also took out an Astral Crystal to replenish her Star Energy. The Autumn Waters Condensed Deceased Brush whirled around like the wind, piling heng and shu strokes like a mountain in front of her.

Chen Mo swept it aside with a swing of his staff.

The two of them were entangled for awhile. All of a sudden, a baleful aura erupting nearby shook Chen Mo and Lady Wei back. They looked to see Xiao Mohe, Lü Meng, and Primordial Earthly Star Sun Yueying’s battle increasingly intensify and affect them.

“We are leaving.” Lü Xixiang recalled the Spring And Autumn disciples and hastily retreated.

Oh, shit.

Chen Mo sensed danger. He immediately fled back to Yu Ji’s side.

“What is happening?” Yu Ji was at a loss.

“We have to get out of here now.” Chen Mo allowed no time for explanation as he picked up Wang Yuanji in one arm and carried Yu Ji with the other, activating an escape technique.

Lady Wei also used several talismans for a protective formation as she quickly fled to outside the underground palace.

“Why are we running?” YU Ji struggled briefly.

“A Heaven Rank is about to hit.”

Chen Mo hissed.

Sun Yueying’s two weapons faced Lü Meng, Yu Ziqi, and Xiao Mohe. Even Heaven Devouring Demon King’s attacks, which were as tyrannical as a demon’s, were unable to tear open Yueying’s defenses.

Seeing the Lü Clan’s disciples were practically decimated, Lü Meng was infuriated. Finally, she was unable to bear anymore.

Seizing the opening left by Xiao Mohe and Yu Ziqi distracting Sun Yueying, General Of Southern Wu Lü Meng’s eyes were as deep as an abyss. Her leg stamped the ground, and she wielded her lance like a blade with both hands.

As if a god of war had possessed her, wherever Lü Rumeng stomped, the scene of a wilderness immediately manifested in that space. Enormous power gushed out from her body, as if a ten thousand zhang tall mountain was rising.

The frightening power made even Heaven Devouring Demon King feel pressure sink her shoulders.

The three women were pressured by Lü Meng’s power, surprisingly hardly able to move an inch.

Heaven Rank.

Xiao Mohe’s greatsword adopted a defensive stance with all her might. A “demon king” shadow wrapped in black scale armor frighteningly manifested behind her to assist. Layer after layer of black scales stuck to the woman’s pure white skin like armor. This was her Star Beast, “Rakshasa.”5 At the same time, a black Star Crest glowed on Xiao Mohe’s forehead as she also used her Innate Skill, “Rakshasa,”6 making her Star Beast even stronger.

Heaven Rank: Ten Thousand Ancient Protective Array!!7

Yu Ziqi also forced a Heaven Rank. The Ten Thousand Ancient Weapons Grave’s armaments formed an enormous circular formation, similarly displaying the illusion of a terrible weapons mausoleum.

Earthly Brave Star Sun Yueying was unmoved. Her hands spun her weapons. The spear’s red clouds, and the iron club’s ice and snow rapidly faded. All the energy surrounding her practically vanished under her palms.

The rise and falls of countries, the success and failures of the world seemed to be decided in her palms.

Not only was Sun Yueying facing Lü Meng’s Heaven Rank, she also needed to contend against Xiao Mohe and Yu Ziqi.

“To think of facing my Heaven Rank with an Earth Rank, let This General destroy you.” Lü Meng brandished her lance. Her furious shout shook apart the mountains, rivers, and wildland. The steeply rising ten thousand zhang force concentrated on her weapon and roared, as if Heaven and Earth would die out under her strike.

Heaven Rank: Furious Slash War Saint!8

Sun Yueying’s hands fiddled with the Heaven Rank’s power, playing with life and death, strong and weak in her palms.

Primordial Star Name Earth Rank: Instantaneous Rise And Fall!9

Everyone forced out of the underground palace arrived at an open space outside. The entire palace tottered. The Furious Slash’s power flowed out with boundless majesty such that even the people outside were unable to avoid it.

Chen Mo could only activate the Bodhi Treasure Karma.

His spiritual power was drained. The Bodhi Treasure Karma emitted a deep green light that dispersed in the surroundings. A luxuriant bodhi tree sprouted behind him. Chen Mo used the Body of the Black Turtle, the Black Turtle Swords, and the Bodhi Treasure Karma to resist the Heaven Rank’s might.

Huang Tingjian was a Heavenly Star. As long as she did not face the Heaven Rank directly, she had ways to resist. Lady Wei’s brush painted a formation, already preparing Supreme Grade talismans for protection.

However, when they saw Chen Mo unexpectedly withstand the Heaven Rank’s spreading power, both women showed expressions of astonishment.

The underground palace jolted, and the abyss’ Primeval Chaos Yellow Qi surged. However, as expected of the place where Li Si personally forged the Five Emperors Seal, it still withstood even the might of a Heaven Rank.

Everyone barely warded off the Heaven Rank’s leftover power, but suddenly, they sensed a red light flash by and took a blurry look.

A Crimson Star dazzlingly descended.

The fourth totem ignited.
