SACRED BODY OF THE IMMORTALS

Chapter 188: The Puppet Master


The figure was tall and imposing, draped in a starry robe that seemed to be engraved with the sun, moon, and stars.

He sat there on the Throne of Stars, an eternal silence surrounding him, like an unyielding supreme being.

Ye Xingyun was so excited that his body trembled.

This was the magnificent figure that had appeared in his memories.

Although there was no trace of life emanating from this figure, the overwhelming aura of majesty lingered, suffocating both Ye Xingyun and Mo Fan even now.

"Could that be the legendary Wuji Star Lord from the history of the Wuji Star Palace?" Mo Fan was equally shocked.

He never expected that the remains of Wuji Star Lord would exist within this treasure vault of the star palace.

At the same time, the starry figure within him began to radiate a fiery intent, as if resonating with something.

"Could it be... that I am the inheritor of the Wuji Star Palace?"

Feeling the reaction of the starry figure within him, Mo Fan couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.

Ye Xingyun looked at the remains of Wuji Star Lord, and what excited him was not the remains themselves.

It was the items surrounding the remains.

Next to the Throne of Stars leaned a silver longbow.

The entire longbow was covered in cracks, yet it exuded a faint aura of formidable power.

"That is... Wuji Star Lord's personal weapon, the Star Destroying Bow!" Ye Xingyun's breath quickened as he looked.

Before descending to the lower realm, he had done his homework and had a fair understanding of Wuji Star Lord.

That silver longbow should indeed be Wuji Star Lord's weapon, the Star Destroying Bow.

The Star Destroying Bow was a supreme weapon, nearly reaching the level of a quasi-emperor weapon.

Weapons of divine rank are categorized into princely weapons, ancient saint weapons, supreme weapons, quasi-emperor weapons, and emperor weapons.

Supreme weapons are those nurtured by supreme beings, possessing immense power.

Although the Star Destroying Bow had been shattered during Wuji Star Lord's great battle, its value was still immeasurable.

However...

That was not what excited Ye Xingyun the most.

What thrilled him was a colorful, shimmering mass of material, like mercury, hovering in front of Wuji Star Lord's remains.

It was the world's origin of the Starry Continent!

Ye Xingyun's breath seemed to stop at that moment.

The world's origin was an incredibly precious thing.

If he could obtain it, merge it with himself, along with the Star Destroying Bow and the various martial arts and divine abilities left by Wuji Star Lord...

How powerful would Ye Xingyun become?

He feared he couldn't even imagine!

"Great! After enduring for so long, it's finally my turn to rise, Jun Xiaoyao, let's see who can laugh last!"

Ye Xingyun took a deep breath and stepped forward, wanting to seize the world's origin.

However, at that moment, a fierce and sharp gust of wind suddenly struck from behind.

"I knew you would make a move, ant." Ye Xingyun's lips curled into a cold smile.

He turned around and struck out with a palm, unleashing his ultimate skill, colliding with Mo Fan.

With a loud bang, Mo Fan was sent flying, spitting out blood.

"If you had obediently followed me, perhaps I could have granted you the identity of a follower and taken you to the Immortal Domain."

"But instead, you chose to seek your own demise." Ye Xingyun's gaze was icy.

He was no benevolent person.

The proud descendants of these immortal forces understood best what it meant to be strong or weak.

Like Jun Xiaoyao, these cultivators from the lower realm were, in Ye Xingyun's eyes, no different from ants.

Even if Mo Fan was the protagonist of the Starry Continent's fortune, it was the same.

"You helped me open the door to the star palace's treasure vault; your usefulness ends there. Die."

Ye Xingyun unleashed a palm, his aura surging violently, striking towards Mo Fan's forehead.

Mo Fan's eyes widened in disbelief, his heart filled with extreme unwillingness.

At that moment, the starry figure within him suddenly burst forth, transforming into a streak of light that darted into Ye Xingyun's divine palace.

Ye Xingyun felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his body jolting.

Within his divine palace, a towering figure seemed to appear.

The starry figure had transformed into the likeness of Wuji Star Lord.

"Wh... why is this happening?"

Inside the divine palace, Ye Xingyun's true spirit trembled under the terrifying pressure.

"Finally, I have the opportunity. From now on, I will make good use of your Star King body." The remnant soul of Wuji Star Lord spoke coldly.

That starry figure was actually formed from the remnant soul of Wuji Star Lord!

Hearing this, Ye Xingyun felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his entire being shaking.

This remnant soul of Wuji Star Lord actually wanted to seize his body?

"No, it can't be! Am I not the reincarnation of Wuji Star Lord? How could this happen?" Ye Xingyun's true spirit cried out in disbelief.

Wasn't he the reincarnation of a supreme being? Why was Wuji Star Lord trying to seize him now?

"Heh... foolish. This Star Lord merely used a few small tricks, and you fell right into the trap."

"Originally, you had protectors by your side in the Immortal Domain, and this Star Lord had no chance to seize you."

"But now, you have followed this Star Lord's plan step by step into the trap."

"You were never the reincarnation of this Star Lord. This Star Lord only wants to seize your Star King body and live again!"

"In this life, this Star Lord will enter the Ten Realms Rift, ascend to the Heroic Spirit Altar, and carve out a path that no one has walked before, achieving the Dao and becoming an emperor!"

Wuji Star Lord's words echoed within Ye Xingyun's divine palace, leaving him in a daze.

Ye Xingyun was never the favored child of fortune.

He was merely a tool, manipulated and designed.

Previously, Ye Xingyun had mocked Mo Fan as a tool.

In reality, he himself was a tool, and his situation was even more tragic.

Wuji Star Lord was about to obliterate his true spirit and take residence within.

With Wuji Star Lord's methods, he was confident he could deceive the heavens.

"No... this isn't real!" Ye Xingyun screamed and howled.

After enduring for so long, plotting, he ended up with such a result.

This nearly drove Ye Xingyun insane, unable to believe it.

He had been thinking of taking revenge on Jun Xiaoyao after gaining opportunities and reclaiming his dignity.

But now?

His very consciousness was about to be obliterated.

"Wuji Star Lord, I am the pride of the Ye family. If you treat me this way, if discovered, the Ye family will not spare you!" Ye Xingyun, filled with fear, could only invoke the name of the Ye family.

"Heh, don't worry. I will perfectly replace you in the future..." Wuji Star Lord replied with a cold smile.

He had once entered the Ten Realms Rift and obtained a peculiar method of soul reincarnation.

This method could allow his remnant soul to live a second life, seizing the body of a proud descendant and climbing to the peak once more.

Since then, Wuji Star Lord had begun his plotting.

The reason he had targeted Ye Xingyun was that his Star King body could later transform into a Star God body, which also aligned with Wuji Star Lord's attributes.

As for why Ye Xingyun could awaken those memories, it was naturally due to the faint resonance between the Star God body and the Star King body.

Wuji Star Lord's remnant soul had begun its design using this method.

And Mo Fan was merely another pawn in his game.

In summary, everything was within Wuji Star Lord's calculations.

His remnant soul directly obliterated the true spirit within Ye Xingyun's divine palace.

The proud descendant of the ancient Ye family met such an absurd end, which was truly lamentable.

Ye Xingyun's expression returned to calm, his eyes filled with a condescending arrogance.

Beside him, Mo Fan was completely stunned, unable to believe the turn of events.

At that moment, a voice of astonishment suddenly rang out.

"I never expected that the meticulously calculated Ye Xingyun would end up digging his own grave. Wuji Star Lord, what a clever move..."
