That figure, tall and majestic, was draped in a Star Robe, as if engraved with the sun, moon, and stars.
He sat on the Star Throne, ancient and silent, like an unyielding Supreme Venerable.
Ye Xingyun trembled with excitement.
This was the towering and grand figure that had appeared in his memories.
Although there was no trace of life within this figure anymore,
the aura of majesty and dominance lingered long past, suffocating both Ye Xingyun and Mo Fan even now.
"Could that be the Star Monarch Wuji, the legendary figure in the history of the Infinite Star Palace?" Mo Fan was equally shocked.
He hadn't anticipated that Star Monarch Wuji's remains would be within this Star Palace Treasure Vault.
At the same time, the Star Little Person within him started emitting a searing heat, as if resonating with something.
"Could it be... I'm the true inheritor of the Infinite Star Palace?"
Feeling the reaction from the Star Little Person inside him, Mo Fan couldn't help but feel elated.
Ye Xingyun looked at the remains of Star Monarch Wuji, but what excited him wasn't the remains themselves.
It was what lay beside the remains.
By the Star Throne rested a silver longbow.
The longbow, though covered in cracks, exuded a faint, imposing aura.
"That... that's the personal weapon of Star Monarch Wuji, the Star-Slaying Destruction Bow!" Ye Xingyun's breath was rapid with excitement.
Before descending to the Lower Realm, he had done his homework and understood quite a bit about Star Monarch Wuji.
That silver longbow was indeed Star Monarch Wuji's weapon, the Star-Slaying Destruction Bow.
The Star-Slaying Destruction Bow was a Venerable Artifact, nearly reaching the level of a Quasi-Emperor Weapon.
The level of Divine Weapons is divided into Prince's Weapon, Ancient Sacred Weapon, Venerable Artifact, Quasi-Emperor Weapon, and Emperor's Weapon.
A Venerable Artifact is a weapon nurtured by a Supreme, possessing boundless might.
Although the Star-Slaying Destruction Bow was shattered during Star Monarch Wuji's grand battle, its value remained immeasurable.
However...
This wasn't what excited Ye Xingyun the most.
What most excited him was a radiant, multicolored, mercury-like substance shimmering with starlight before Star Monarch Wuji's remains.
It was none other than the World Origin of the Star Continent!
Ye Xingyun's breath seemed to pause at this moment.
The World Origin was an incredibly precious thing.
If he could obtain it and integrate it into himself, alongside the Star-Slaying Destruction Bow and the various Martial Arts Divine Techniques left by Star Monarch Wuji,
how powerful would Ye Xingyun become?
Even Ye Xingyun himself couldn't imagine!
"Finally, after enduring for so long, it's my turn to rise, Jun Xiaoyao. Let's see who will laugh last!"
Ye Xingyun took a deep breath and stepped forward, intending to claim the World Origin.
However, at that moment, a fierce wind attacked from behind.
"I knew you'd make a move, ant." Ye Xingyun's lips curled into a cold smile.
He turned and struck a palm, unleashing his Ultimate Skill, colliding with Mo Fan.
With a booming sound, Mo Fan was sent flying, spitting blood.
"Had you followed me obediently, I might have truly granted you the position of a follower, taking you to the Immortal Realm."
"But instead, you've chosen your own doom." Ye Xingyun's gaze was icy cold.
He was not a kind person.
These successors of the Immortal Influence's Celestial Pride understood the concept of the survival of the fittest.
Just like Jun Xiaoyao, these cultivators from the Lower Realm were nothing but ants in Ye Xingyun's eyes.
Even if Mo Fan was the protagonist of destiny on the Star Continent, it made no difference.
"Opening the door to the Star Palace Treasure Vault for me was your only purpose; now die."
Ye Xingyun's palm, fueled by a surging aura, struck towards Mo Fan's forehead.
Mo Fan's eyes widened in rage, his heart filled with extreme unwillingness.
At that moment, the Star Little Person within him suddenly shot out, transformed into a stream of light, and entered Ye Xingyun's Divine Palace within his mind.
Ye Xingyun was utterly stunned as if struck by lightning.
Within his Divine Palace, a towering figure suddenly appeared.
The Star Little Person transformed into the likeness of Star Monarch Wuji.
"How... how could this be?"
Within his Divine Palace, Ye Xingyun's True Spirit trembled under the terrifying pressure.
"Finally, there's an opportunity. From now on, I will make good use of your Star King Body." Star Monarch Wuji's remnant soul spoke coldly.
That Star Little Person was formed by the remnants of Star Monarch Wuji's soul!
Hearing these words, Ye Xingyun was struck to the core, his entire being shaking.
This remnant soul of Star Monarch Wuji intended to possess him?
"No, no way, am I not the reincarnation of Star Monarch Wuji? How could this happen?" Ye Xingyun's True Spirit screamed in disbelief.
Wasn't he the reincarnation of a Supreme? How could Star Monarch Wuji now seek to possess him?
"Hah... Ignorant fool, I just used a little trick, and you fell right into the trap."
"In the Immortal Realm, you had a guardian by your side, and I had no chance to possess you."
"But now, you have followed my plan, step by step, into my trap."
"You have never been my reincarnation; I simply wanted to possess your Star King Body and live a new life!"
"In this life, I will enter the Ten Realms Rift, ascend the Heroic Spirit Altar, and carve a path that none have walked before, proving the path to Emperor!"
The words of Star Monarch Wuji echoed within Ye Xingyun's Divine Palace, leaving him completely dazed.
Ye Xingyun had never been a favored child of destiny.
He was merely a pawn, manipulated and designed.
Previously, Ye Xingyun mocked Mo Fan for being a pawn.
In reality, he himself was a pawn, and an even more tragic one.
Star Monarch Wuji was about to eradicate his True Spirit, to take residence within.
With his methods, Star Monarch Wuji was confident about deceiving everyone.
"No... this isn't real!" Ye Xingyun screamed and shrieked.
After enduring and scheming for so long, this was the bitter end he faced.
This nearly drove Ye Xingyun insane with disbelief.
He had thought of seeking revenge on Jun Xiaoyao once he seized the opportunities and regained his dignity.
But now?
Even his consciousness was to be extinguished.
"Star Monarch Wuji, I am a Celestial Pride of the Ye Family. If you do this to me and are discovered, the Ye Family won't spare you!" Ye Xingyun, terrified, could only invoke the Ye Family's name.
"Hah, rest assured, I will perfectly replace you..." Star Monarch Wuji chuckled coldly.
He had once ventured into the Ten Realms Rift and acquired a peculiar Divine Soul Rebirth Technique.
This technique allowed him to live a second life, seizing a Celestial Pride and reaching the pinnacle again.
From that moment, Star Monarch Wuji began his scheme.
And the reason he targeted Ye Xingyun,
was because his Star King Body could transform into a Star Divine Body and also matched Star Monarch Wuji's attributes.
The reason Ye Xingyun could awaken those memories
was naturally due to the faint resonance and connection between the Star Divine Body and the Star God King Body.
It was through this means that Star Monarch Wuji's remnant soul began its design.
And Mo Fan, he was merely another pawn in his game.
In summary, everything was within Star Monarch Wuji's calculations.
His remnant soul directly obliterated the True Spirit within Ye Xingyun's Divine Palace.
The Celestial Pride of the Desolate Ancient Ye Family ended in such a ridiculous manner; it was truly lamentable.
"Ye Xingyun's" expression returned to calmness, his eyes carrying a lofty and cold arrogance.
Beside him, Mo Fan stood in complete shock, unable to comprehend such a turn of events.
At this moment, a clucking voice of admiration suddenly echoed.
"Who would've thought, after all the calculations, Ye Xingyun ended up being the one to trap himself. Star Monarch Wuji, what a move..."
