Mount Hua, main peak, Purple Cypress Divine Tree.

A refined, yellow-clothed woman stood beneath the tree. This woman’s clothes fluttered, emitting a thick aura. This air seemed to be replete with a million years’ worth of the earth’s quintessence. The yellow qi in her hand rapidly matured this Purple Cypress Divine Tree’s fruit.

Very quickly, the Purple Cypress Divine Fruit ripened, purple qi surged into the nine firmaments, and leaves sprouted on the tree’s limbs, a very spectacular sight.

The woman was expressionless, yet her eyes brimmed with the feeling of antiquity. She flatly glanced around, and with a flourish, vanished into the earthly leyline, disappearing from sight.1 Tan Daoling, Gao Shanxue, and the rest hurried before the Purple Cypress Divine Fruit. They saw only this divine tree was suffused with purple light. Ten thousand stars glittered, and an incomparable purple qi appeared like a ten thousand year old tree. Amidst the purple qi’s endless surge, a divine fruit slowly matured.

“This is the Purple Cypress Divine Fruit!” Tan Daoji was excited to see this fruit. Washing the eyes with the Purple Cypress Divine Fruit could allow one to see through the mystery of mountains and rivers, the leylines of Heaven and Earth, the trajectory of the moon and stars, and even the trail of the vast cosmos. Simply put, after a Star General obtained the divine fruit, they could easily create Heaven, Earth, Dark, and Yellow Techniques, especially a Phoenix Heaven Rank. Furthermore, they could see through the weakness of other Star Generals’ Heaven, Earth, Dark and Yellow Techniques.

Consequently, even the top-notch Star Marquis coveted the Purple Cypress Divine Fruit.

The Purple Cypress Divine Fruit was produced once every Star Era. The previous fruit could be traced back to the era of Carefree Heavenly Dao Zhuangzi.

“But why has it matured so quickly, shouldn’t it still need a few more years?” Tan Daoling wrinkled her brow. The timing of its maturation was honestly too coincidental, as if someone had deliberately prepared this for a long time, waiting for when Fu Jian would be at Mount Hua.

Gao Siji did not understand either.

“Fu Jian has coveted it for a long time, you must be careful.” Gao Shanxue said.

Tan Daoling nodded.

As expected, two figures flew over not long after. Surprisingly, they were “Kingdom Destroyer Great General” Wang Meng and “Match For Ten Thousand” Deng Qiang.

“Why has this Purple Cypress Divine Fruit matured so quickly?” Wang Meng asked.

“This is a forbidden area of Mount Hua. If you are not a disciple of Mount Hua, please, leave.” Gao Shanxue brought out the “Four Seasons” divine spear.

Deng Qiang’s thin body issued a hoarse sneer: “Mount Hua can hardly protect itself. Gao Siji, are you still making a bluff about some disciple?”

“Please leave!” Gao Shanxue did not want to repeat herself, and she pointed her spear. Tan Daoling also activated her Thirty-six Stratagems Innate Skill. The Dark Cloud Shears also were at the ready.

Deng Qiang looked to Wang Meng.

The woman with the surging chest sternly said: “This General only wishes to know if your Mount Hua is playing a trick or not, if you are deliberately destroying the divine fruit. The Imperial Empress specifically made us come to investigate. Please do not interfere.”

“This is a restricted area. Must I repeat myself?” Gao Shanxue’s tone was ice-cold, killing intent already in her eyes.

Match For Ten Thousand Deng Qiang’s ehin body suddenly unleashed powerful energy, which pressed down with force to topple mountains. The Star Weapon in her hands was the “Dark Sweallow,” a strange polearm shaped like a swallow. It had a four-sided blade, and it was like a swallow flying out of the darkness; it had seven shining stars.

“Stand aside-” 

In the middle of Gao Shanxue’s shout.

Dark Rank “Swallowcloud Lunge Kill” was unleashed.

Countless black swallows seemed to fly out and cover the entire mountain.

Wang Rou also drew her Qiankun Reversal broadsword, ice-cold. This blade was as imposing as her chest. She brandished the broadsword, and a saber-light that could cleave Mount Hua immediately cut the surrounding space to shreds.

Gao Shanxue had already prepared her defenses. Four Seasons stabbed, and Tan Daoji executed her own techniques.

At the same time, a horn blew.

“Your Distinguished Self Star Marquis, please return. Otherwise, do not blame This Young Lady for executing you without reprieve. Her Majesty Mian has specifically instructed: Should anyone intrude into Mount Hua, This Young Lady is to execute them on sight. Even if they are a Star Marquis.” The leisurely woman’s expression was very complacent, completely unfazed against the Golden Age Tyrant’s brutal intimidation.

There was no person or matter or influence or power that could enter the gaze of her slender phoenix eyes.

Yang Guang’s expression darkened.

This woman, in addition to the Twenty-eight Star Mansions, proved troublesome, even without the Son Of Heaven.

“Why heed Su Mian’s command? Has the number two great general of the Star Duels List fallen so low?” Yang Guang sneered.

“This Young Lady is also one of Central’s Twin Stars. No matter what, there are are times I must demonstrate my power.” The girl played down her response.

All of a sudden, a thick purple light flowed from the faraway Western Lin Star Field.

Yang Guang immediately sensed what that was.

The Purple Cypress Divine Fruit had ripened.

“This really is not the time.” The woman turned her head back, pursing her lips.

Now that things reached this stage, there was already no room to turn back. If she gave up now, she would lose this chance forever. “Attack right now, push through!! No one should think of hindering My ambition!” Yang Guang roared like thunder. Buddhist Stupa Under Heaven transformed into myriad Buddhist-lights that shot into the void sea of stars, shaking its ancient stillness.

A tidal wave-like force practically blew away the Star Mansion Array.

Deng Yu, Jia Fu, and the others’ expressions slightly changed.

At the same time, the Sui Ye Star Kingdom’s generals and Star Soldiers bellowed as they assaulted the array.

Han Qinhu, Heruo Bi, Zhang Xutuo, Shi Wansui. There was also “Vice Minister Of Ceremonies” Gao Jiong. In the Mount Hua martial arts competition, she defeated Li Xiao. Although she had attained an unsightly victory over an Earthly Star in the end, she had achieved a very exceptional feat, after all. Her Double Character Star Name had also become a Single Character Star Name, Heavenly Servant Star.

“I will face you, Central Twin Star!” Gao Jiong had become a Single Character Heavenly Star, and her power also grew. The Containment Seal blade she held in her hand emitted an ear-piercing sound, as if a millions of bees were beating their wings, buzzing nonstop. This sound was extremely grating, and even the void sea of stars was filled with it.

Starlight gathered onto Gao Jiong’s Containment Seal. The saber vibrated with a supersonic-like noise. She attacked with Earth Rank “Ending Sadness Vanishing Worry.”

“Since you are so intent on rebellion, This Young lady can only kill you.” The woman was unflappable. A spear appeared in her hand, and a poke of its tip broke Gao Jiong’s Earth Rank, “Why not use your Heaven Rank. This Young Lady will make your death a bit satisfactory.”

These seemingly provocative words were nevertheless reasonable from the girl’s lips, as if this was something very inevitable.

Gao Jiong was unable to restrain her anger. The girl jumped high, furiously brandishing her blade, “As you wish-“

Heaven Rank – Dim Primordial Chaos!

Saber-light gathered on the Containment Seal, and all light in the void sea of stars was instantly absorbed. Even a Star Marquis’ eyes were unable to see any starlight. Gao Jiong’s slash seemed to split even nothingness. Chilling saber-light hacked at the woman.

“Heh, heh, heh.” The girl chuckled and charged towards the incoming Heaven Rank without any sign of fear.

The ear-piercing sound of a collision ripped apart the endless darkness.

The darkness was instantly smashed by the girl’s spear.

“Impossible.” Gao Jiong looked at the enormous hole in her chest, dumbstruck.

Her Heaven Rank was surprisingly unable to touch even a hair on her opponent.

The girl killed Gao Jiong with a single blow and tossed her wrist.

“Come, all of you can die with some satisfaction.”

“As expected of one of Star World’s absolute geniuses. Your opponent is Me-” Yang Guang roared. Her figure became a blur faster than light. She did not want to tangle with this girl at all; she only wanted to break free as soon as possible and destroy Mount Hua first.”

After a Star Marquis entered among Purple Rose Stars, their speed was practically like a white steed flitting by. They were capable of even crossing several dozen Star Fields in the blink of an eye, and even the best Star Generals could hardly keep up. But to Central’s Twin Dragon, this was not a problem.

“How can you escape from right in front of This Young Lady’s eyes. Then would This Young Lady not shame the nickname of ‘White Steed Under Heaven.'” The girl’s figure flickered, and she instantly caught up to Yang Guang.

Yang Guang wielded the Buddhist Stupa Under Heaven. A pagoda descended from the sky to suppress the girl.

Her opponent raised her spear. This action seemed to hold the pagoda up, and with a step, the void sea of stars became her staircase. She immediately arrived in front of Yang Guang, her insufferably arrogant spear-light obstructed the Golden Age Tyrant’s path.

Yang Guang simply hated the girl in front of her. 

Even she was helpless.

Because this girl’s Star Name could be said to be the genius of geniuses all throughout history, the words “the Xuannü of the Nine Heavens’ astonishing genius” were insufficient to describer her.

She was none other than Heavenly Marquis Star “White Steed Under Heaven” Huo Qubing.2

“Huo Chujian,3 Central’s regime and the Su Clan have already fallen apart. Will you actually persist in the folly of obeying a cultivator’s commands? You are simply throwing away the face of your Huo Qubing Star Name.” Yang Guang asked loudly. “Our Star Names ought to join hands and rid the land of all outsiders together, to focus Star World’s power and governance into the hands of Star Generals. This is our long-cherished wish.”

Huo Chujian gave some earnest thought, “Not a bad proposal. But…This Young Lady also cares about Central’s regime, not some Su imperial family. However, there is a tiny favor that must be repaid. As for Star World’s power, This Young Lady has no interest at all.”

“This Young Lady shall advise you once more. Your Distinguished Self, please return. Otherwise, do not blame This Young Lady for being ruthless.”

Huo Qubing stood in the void, and the void was one with her. The blessing of the Xuannü of the Nine Heavens vaguely manifested. Then, an immeasurable power appeared in the void. This power was apparently the peak of all martial generals’ glory, the supreme apex. Mysterious black qi coiled around Huo Qubing, making the girl’s complexion a bit gloomy and pale, but at the same time, gave it a majesty that compelled everyone to bow in worship.

It did not lose out to a Star Marquis’ Purple Rose True Qi.

Khentii Mountain Ritual!

Huo Qubing’s Innate Skill. She had already reached the zenith of martial generals, refining her Star Energy into the Realms of Confucian noble spirit and Star Marquis Purple Rose True Qi.

No one could defeat nor possibly persuade such a person.

Other than the rulers of the nine thousand Star Fields, Their Majesties the Su Family.

“Then die.” Yang Guang grimly said. Buddhist Stupa Under Heaven transformed into a colored glass world, freezing the void sea of stars layer by layer. The girl’s forehead Star Crest glowed with purple light, transforming the stars into purple ones.

The void sea of stars produced an unimaginable Buddhist world under Yang Guang’s power.

An infinitude of lotus flowers blossomed in the void, dividing it.

This was Heaven Rank.

Eternal Sukhavati!4

“Very good.” Huo Qubing nodded.

Spear-light flashed, and the world rumbled.

The Congealed Dream Mountain Range collapsed, and the Earthly Phoenix Palace thoroughly disintegrated.

Chen Mo broke out of the debris, urging the Azure Dragon specter to the heavens where he caught his breath.

“Xiang Yu, were you not killed by the Purple Rose Star Emperor? Why are you not dead!” Chen Mo heard a voice. He raised his head to see Xiang Yu not far in front of him. Facing her were the Star Marquis Wang Mang and Heavenly King Of Wudao Ran Youli, both cutting very sorry figures and practically on their last breaths.

Xiang Yu’s first personality was soft, her second firm, both of these being opposite ends of an extreme. But her third personality was coupled strength with gentleness. Her every move was oppressively tyrannical yet also pacifist. She was undefeatable and impeccable.

Wang Mang asked in terror.

She practically did not dare believe the person in front of her was that Xiang Yu from a millennium ago.

The three pupils in Xiang Yu’s eyes rotated.

“You already died, why have you appeared. Does this mean…” Wang Mang suddenly recalled something, and her expression abruptly became terrified.

But her next words were eternally silent.

“You guessed correctly, so your Star Era has come to an end.”

Xiang Yu said and killed Wang Mang.
