Chapter 852 Use The Stellar Essence To Rebuild The Cultivation Base?

A long time passed and Ling Tian stood in the same place. The wounds on his body had healed quickly thanks to the refining and recovery of his body while the blood had dried and dyed his clothes.

However, Ling Tian did not care about this let alone move. His gaze still remained on the rock in his hand, his body even trembling slightly the more he watched him.

"Is it really the legendary stellar stone?"

An incredulous voice came from his mouth, his lips stained with some blood as a thin line of blood had dried over one of his corners.

Ling Tian took a deep breath without taking his eyes off the stone in his hands. The crack above the surface was still there, but the terrifying wave of energy that had come out earlier no longer surged out; Ling Tian knew that he barely managed to give it a scratch thanks to the might of the void, so the power inside the starstone was still intact.

"It is said that a star stone contains the terrifying destructive power of a giant star that gathered and grew with more than ten stars, the size of the star being larger than the cultivation worlds and even almost similar to the Immortal World..." Ling Tian recalled how little was known about the knowledge pertaining to the Immortal World, whispering to himself, "In legends, this type of stone was highly coveted and valued by countless immortals, even Immortal Emperors themselves would fight for them, as it could help one break through the barrier and by refining their energy advance to the next stage thanks to the great destructive force."

Very little was known about Stellar Stones, or stones of the Giant Star, and it was only known that it could help break through the cultivation boundary even when one's cultivation level had already almost reached the peak. Even some few managed to refine high-level immortal weapons because of the terrifying power, but no one else found any different use for it.

That was why Ling Tian never once thought that this rock could be the star stone, as they were so rare to find, let alone in a cultivation world. A stone like this could contain other different energies, be a refining material, a vessel of some medicinal essence, or even be a strange egg from some spiritual beast.

Ling Tian read that there would be rivers of blood and mountains of corpses if just one of these starstones suddenly appeared, not because of the fights to get it, but because of its destructive power capable of ravaging and destroying almost the sky itself, showing how terrifying it could be.

The last star stone that was recorded to have been found was hundreds of millions of years ago, and the size of the star stone was larger than the rock he was holding in his hand at the moment.

And yet, in the midst of fighting over the stellar stone, they accidentally destroyed it and the explosion killed thousands of Immortal Lords, dozens of Immortal Kings to the point of considerably injuring a few nearby Immortal Monarchs. Only one Immortal Emperor barely suffered some superficial injuries within the considerable range of the explosion, but it led to the destruction of a huge major city and several nearby smaller cities, thereby killing millions of living beings.

Ling Tian knew that the starstone in his hands would be coveted by everyone and they would attack him without a second thought if word leaked out that he had it in his hands.

"Inside the star stone is the original essence of a rising star... and only supernovae can have the star essence..."

Ling Tian unconsciously whispered before startling himself.

"The original essence of a star? Isn't it caused by the union of several stars?"

Ling Tian thought to himself and quickly realized that a greater and distinctly different knowledge than he had of the Immortal World vaguely appeared in his consciousness. The blurry image of dozens of stars and something bright within them illuminated the darkness.

These were the memories and knowledge of his previous life!

Ling Tian concentrated entirely on that faint feeling, trying not to miss any piece of information no matter how small.

After a long time, Ling Tian let out a sigh and slowly opened his eyes. A golden glow, like a faint spark appeared in his eyes before returning to his normal jet black color.

"The Stellar Stone only gets produced when a supernova explodes, with the energy dispersing to the surroundings while the core inside it quickly fades away, unless it manages to attach itself to whatever it has closest to it and can survive for hundreds of thousands and millions of years... with just a glimmer of the stellar essence, this one can destroy almost an entire small to medium sized world."

Even at this moment, the Sacred Heavenly Scriptures were still absorbing the spiritual aura around him.

Simply put, Ling Tian would have two dantian in the future, which meant that his energy reserves would be larger and he would have more power.

"Huh?"

Ling Tian's pupils sharply contracted as he happened to inspect his body after seeing the Sacred Heavenly Scriptures.

The terrifying Primordial Chaos Force that enveloped his meridians and dantian had been greatly reduced, before slowly but faintly coating several meridians again.

His dantian that was repaired by more than half, cracked back to just over 60%!

But what had stunned and even frightened Ling Tian considerably, was that much of the meridians that had previously been repaired by the force of the Legendary Purple Chi and the might of the Sacred Heavenly Scriptures themselves were now shattered to pieces again!

The terrifying force that surged from this stellar stone wounded not only his body and his sea of consciousness, but also destroyed several meridians again in an instant!

But the most important thing was not this, but that the refinement of his body broke through in an instant, making its way from the peak of fourth revolution to the sixth revolution of the spirit state! Crossing a whole great stage in its entirety!

Now there were 6 circulations of blood and spirit essence flowed inside his body, crossing all his organs and viscera, strengthening them at each circulation and forming a constant flowing circuit without interruption.

His level of body refinement had increased in an instant!

If he managed to have 7 revolutions, then he could take the next step to transform his body into a true immortal body!

From here, the terrifying power of the stars could be clearly seen!

"Hahaha!"

Ling Tian couldn't help but let out a faint laugh after a few seconds. He felt a sweet bitterness.

The healing power of the twin trees flowed from his heart and quickly began to repair his wounds with their amazing life force. Adding to the body's level of refinement, his wounds healed quickly.

"You find a unique treasure, but you have to give something in return..." Ling Tian shook his head and carefully stored the stellar stone inside his storage ring, "When the time comes, I will decide whether to start cultivating again or not."

The bitterness quickly disappeared from the surprise of getting better refinement of the body.

Automatically, the power of Sacred Heavenly Scriptures and Legendary Purple Chi began to repair those meridians destroyed by the stellar stone again, reassuring Ling Tian once more.

Because the terrifying Primordial Chaos Force was greatly reduced, the speed to repair his meridians increased several times, reducing the recovery time to less than a decade if he continued in this manner.

Meridians that had been destroyed moments ago were quickly rebuilt again, even rebuilding more that had been engulfed by the Primordial Chaos Force.

After using a water spell to wash the body covered in dried blood, and changing his attire again, Ling Tian disappeared from the Wen clan's residence which had now become a ruins with destruction all around.
