Chapter 6470 Nine Underworld Shadow Devil

A starry canopy covered the Earth Cauldron and everyone from the original devil race. Fei Shuang stood beneath it, bathed in starlight that streamed through her body and into Yue Xiaoqian.

Yue Xiaoqian was using her essence rune to transmit this energy to everyone from the original devil race. Through their combined might, they raised this astral barrier.

This barrier had multiple starry rivers flowing within it, like astral dragons swimming through the sea. They emitted a bright light and a sacred aura that could subdue all devils.

Yue Xiaoqian was stunned by what they were doing. She couldn’t believe that they had actually constructed such a powerful barrier.

Just then, everyone from the nine star line arrived and struck the starry screen. They were all elites of the nine star line and were all peak Human Emperors. The majority of them had condensed essence runes.

Space shattered in front of their attacks, as every single punch contained immense destructive power. However, their immense power only caused some ripples to appear on the barrier. They couldn’t break this starry screen.

“The Starry River Devil Repelling Formation was specially made for the original devil race by the Star Master. Back then, the Star Master personally infused a trace of astral energy into the most gifted among your ancestors. That energy became seeds that slowly germinated through your bloodline,” the Earth Cauldron transmitted to the original devil experts.

“Senior, are you saying that Fei Shuang can wield astral energy because her ancestors were once capable of the same thing?” asked Yue Xiaoqian.

“Not just Fei Shuang,” the Earth Cauldron replied. “Every one of you descends from those who once bore astral energy. Those who did not... already died in the primal chaos war.”

The revelation sent chills through them. If anyone else had said this, they would never have believed it.

The Earth Cauldron continued, “The Star Master was a great existence. His charisma was just like Long Chen’s. Otherwise, how could the ten thousand races have followed him into battle and sacrificed their lives? Though he ultimately lost, no one in the nine heavens or ten lands—not even his enemies—dared to slander or belittle him.

“The Star Master once invested deeply in your race, asking for nothing in return. That was why your ancestors were so loyal to him. In that era, your bond with the Star Master was as sacred as your current bond with Long Chen. History repeats itself—the faces have changed, but the spirit remains. Please do not start questioning the decision of your ancestors because of these so-called “proper” nine star heirs. That would be a kind of blasphemy to them.

“One day, your descendants might question why you sacrificed yourselves for Long Chen. The Starry River Devil Repelling Formation was the Star Master’s final gift to you. At the same time, it is a trump card for you to use against nine star heirs.”

“What?!”

The original devil race was shaken to the core. The Star Master had actually given them a formation to restrain nine star heirs?

“Long Chen trusted you with his life,” the Earth Cauldron explained. “The Star Master once gave your ancestors the same trust. In the primal chaos era, the original devil race wielded not only their own devil energy but also astral energy. The “Devil” characters on your foreheads, when boosted by astral energy, can suppress not only devils—but also astral power itself. That is why these powerful nine star heirs cannot break your barrier.”

Thunderous booms resounded as the nine star heirs’ blows pounded against the barrier, sending ripples of light cascading like waves through the sky. It sounded like a drum of war shaking the world.

The nine star heirs were the strongest warriors of the nine heavens and ten lands. However, their full-power attacks were unable to break the barrier.

All the spectators in the distance were rather baffled by everything they were seeing now. Wasn’t the original devil race allied with the nine star line? And wasn’t the Earth Cauldron Long Chen’s divine weapon? Just what was happening here?

“Every single one of you carries an astral seed in you. Today, try to use the Starry River Devil Repelling Formation to see if you can awaken that latent energy source. Search within your blood and soul—see if you can make it respond,” instructed the Earth Cauldron.

Everyone from the original devil race immediately focused, trying to guide starlight into their bodies. But no resonance came. Their bodies were just pathways for this astral energy to flow, nothing more.

Seeing this, the Earth Cauldron couldn’t help but sigh. It seemed that their astral seeds had long since faded away.

Out of everyone, only Fei Shuang’s seed had ignited. Furthermore, her astral energy only awakened because she had inherited Bing Yi’s Astral Arm after losing her own. Was that fate... or a miracle?

Suddenly, mocking laughter rolled through the air.

“Hahaha! The nine star line and the original devil race—dogs tearing at each other’s throats! How delightful!”

Black mist roiled over from the horizon. Space hissed and corroded wherever it passed, filling the air with eerie popping sounds. Within that fog, countless vague figures shifted and flickered, like devils clawing their way out of hell.

This sight gave people a hair-raising feeling.

With a twisted expression, Lu Ze coldly said, “This is a matter of my nine star line. The Nine Underworld Shadow Devil race has no business here. If you’re smart, you’ll immediately scram.”

“Nine Underworld Shadow Devil race?”

The spectators’ faces paled. This was a terrifying outsider race—famously difficult to fight. They could shift between illusion and reality within the mist, regenerate quickly, and attack with overwhelming ferocity. Even fleeing from them was nearly impossible.

In the Primal Chaos World, not many experts were willing to provoke them.

“Hehehe, the nine star line is as arrogant as ever. However, you can’t scare us. That is the Earth Cauldron, one of the ten great primal chaos divine items. Do you really think your nine star line can claim it by yourselves?” the sinister voice replied from within the black mist.

Clearly, this group of experts had come for the Earth Cauldron. They looked ready to join in the fighting immediately.

“Hmph, an inferior devil race should be more worried about the original devil race’s Devil Suppressing Seal, no?” sneered Lu Ze.

“Oh, we’re quite afraid of that,” came the mocking reply. “But we’re even more afraid of missing the Earth Cauldron. So...”

The black mist surged forward like a living tide, crashing straight toward the barrier.
