Douluo Continent: I ushered in this era

Starlight appeared on the illusory wall of fire, easily drawing the mental storm into its own sea of ​​fire, burning it to ashes.

At this moment, nine giant flaming swords pierced through the star power barrier and landed on the Starfall Lion King. Flames and starlight flowed over its body, and drops of blood dripped down.

Xu Jiashan, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, had a big smile on his face, while the Starfall Lion King had a solemn expression on his face.

Stellar energy surged, and the Starfall Lion King used its spiritual power to communicate with the surrounding stellar energy, converging a surging tide of stars that roared towards Chu Ci.

The nine giant flaming swords extinguished in the star tide, and with a gentle flap of his flaming wings, Chu Ci nimbly dodged the onslaught of the star tide, rose into the air, and looked down at the Starfall Lion King.

The Starfall Lion King on the ground was panting heavily, and specks of starlight gathered on its wounds, slowly healing them.

If it weren't for the Starfall Lion King's excellent physique and the protection of star power, those nine swords would have already defeated it.

The Starfall Lions watching from the sidelines roared in anger, encouraging the Starfall Lion King in battle.

Suddenly, the Starfall Lion King began to run, shaking its mane as it ran, scattering countless starlight from it. Wherever the starlight covered, its figure gradually distorted.

“It’s using mental power to distort our vision,” Xu Xinning said.

"Is there a solution?" Chu Ci asked calmly. With his current mental strength, he couldn't find the Starfall Lion King who had built a mental barrier. If Xu Xinning couldn't determine the Starfall Lion King's location, he would have to launch a large-scale area-of-effect attack.

"I can't break through its mental power, but I can pinpoint its location."

Xu Xinning's first spirit ring flashed, and a dazzling star appeared above her head. The star wasn't large, but its light was very strong.

The next moment, the star emitted countless rays of light, sweeping straight towards the area distorted by the Starfall Lion King.

With a flash of light, most of the light disappeared, leaving only a single beam pointing to the location of the Starfall Lion King.

First Soul Skill: Star Guiding Technique.

Chu Ci's eyes lit up. After judging the direction, he swung his right leg, and a huge fiery elephant hoof stomped down towards the Starfall Lion King.

The Starfall Lion King was shocked and hurriedly used his spiritual power to gather star power to bless his body.

However, Xu Xinning's fourth spirit ring suddenly shone brightly. Centered on her body, a burst of intense starlight burst forth, forming a dazzling light shield with eighteen radiant stars.

Star Guardian, a powerful area-of-effect defensive soul skill that isolates attributes, is a unique skill of the Star Crown lineage.

The star power falling from the sky is isolated by the Star Guardian and cannot be absorbed by the Starfall Lion King.

This time, the home-field advantage was completely negated by the Star Guardian, and the Starfall Lion King was completely stunned.

The Flaming Elephant Hoof exploded with a deafening roar, and the Meteor Lion King lay sprawled on the ground, its once beautiful, gleaming fur now almost entirely blackened to a crisp.

Chu Ci's Wanli Flame surged, ready to deliver the final blow to the Starfall Lion King.

Suddenly, a whooshing sound rang out, and Chu Ci looked up and was instantly dumbfounded.

Because at that moment, a small star fell from the sky and crashed down towards them.

"This is... a fallen star?" Chu Ci said blankly.

“Nonsense, otherwise why would they be called the Starfall Clan!” Xu Xinning replied solemnly.

The origins of the Starfall Clan are closely related to the stars in the celestial realm of the Starry Land. Moreover, since the stars here are not far from the ground, they are naturally able to manipulate the stars of the Starry Land.

Once they reach a certain stage of growth, that is, when their mental strength is strong enough, they can directly use their mental strength to communicate with the stars and pull down the stars from the Land of Stars.

Chu Ci's eyelids twitched violently. Although this star was not large in size, judging from the flames around it caused by friction, the force of its impact was obviously considerable.

Xu Xinning's face was quite ugly. This Meteorite move was extremely powerful, and the reason why most of the Xu family members failed in combat-related soul challenges was related to this move.

She used Star Guardian not without the intention of preventing this move, but she did not expect Starfall Lion King to react so quickly, risking serious injury to pull down the star before Star Guardian was established.

"Xu Xinning, give me an amplification!" Chu Ci shouted, and the Heavenly Candle appeared in his hand.

Xu Xinning looked directly at Chu Ci, whose face was resolute, nodded slightly, and her fifth spirit ring lit up.

"Fifth Soul Skill, Star's Edge".

Golden mist composed of starlight swirled around the celestial candle, and the star crown drew star power into the golden mist.

Star's Edge is a pure attack-boosting soul skill. The more star power is injected, the higher the attack boost. There is no upper limit; it all depends on how much star power the soul master can withstand.

However, the downside is that the increase is a one-time event; once it's released, it needs to be re-aggregated.

Currently, in the Land of Stars, Xu Xinning can mobilize terrifying stellar power, and the resulting benefits have even caught Chu Ci's attention.

Chu Ci felt the rapidly increasing power and showed a disdainful expression to the falling stars.

Chapter 195 The Origin of the Starfall Clan, Star Source's Decision

A golden sword beam swept across the starry sky from bottom to top, slicing out a golden light and shadow, with starlight twinkling within.

A clear, melodious sword cry rang out, accompanied by the sound of exploding stars and a flash of fire.

The sword's edge dissipated, revealing Chu Ci's figure within.

Chu Ci landed safely on the ground, leaning on his sword and panting heavily, the arm armor on his right arm turning into specks of light and dissipating.

He finally understood why the Starfall Clan, despite not having many soul beasts, still dared to let the Xu family disciples participate in soul spirit challenges; who could stand having a star pulled down from their head every now and then?

"The outcome is decided, it's time to announce the result." Chu Ci looked at Xu Jiashan and the Starfall Lion King. The Starfall Lion King had fainted after using the meteor attack and had clearly lost its ability to fight.

Xu Jiashan turned to look at the Starfall Lion King beside him. After the Starfall Lion King nodded slightly, Xu Jiashan announced with a smile that the Soul Challenge was a success.

Starfall Lion King and Xu Jiashan went to prepare for the soul absorption, while Chu Ci found a place with abundant star power to recover her soul power.

Chu Ci had just closed his eyes when he felt a dizzying sensation. He immediately opened his eyes, and the Heavenly Candle appeared in his hand, which he held in front of him.

Chu Ci looked around warily and found himself in a golden space.

"Child, relax, I mean no harm." A burst of starlight flashed, and Xingyuan appeared in front of Chu Ci.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Xingyuan, and I am the patriarch of the Starfall Dragon Clan. Lord Silver Dragon King should have mentioned my existence to you," Xingyuan said kindly.

"Oh, so it's you!" After realizing its identity, Chu Ci put away the Heavenly Candle and took out the Dragon God Core instead.

When Xingyuan saw the Dragon God Core, a deep respect appeared in his eyes. He bowed slightly and paid his respects to the Dragon God Core.

"I never imagined that a human like you would have such a deep relationship with a soul beast," Xingyuan said with emotion. He was indeed quite shocked when Chu Ci took out this thing that revealed the aura of the Dragon God.

"The way you're saying that makes it sound like Soul Masters and Soul Beasts can't get along," Chu Ci said.

Xingyuan said disdainfully, "As long as Soul Masters need Soul Rings to break through, Soul Masters and Soul Beasts cannot coexist. The fact that our Xingyun Clan can coexist with the Xu Family is largely due to my intimidation."

Chu Ci said proudly, "It wasn't possible before, but it might not be after I appear."

Upon hearing this, Xingyuan was taken aback at first, then burst into laughter, "Child, you have ambition. No wonder Lord Silver Dragon King appreciates you so much."

Chu Ci put away the Dragon God Core, crossed his arms and said, "Now that I've finished answering my question, let's talk about yours! Your Starfall Clan was born in the Land of Stars, so why do you recognize the aura of the Dragon God?"

"I will never forget the aura of the Dragon God!" Xingyuan said resolutely, and then slowly recounted the origins of the Starfall Clan.

"In fact, the Land of Stars was never so prosperous; it was just a broken, lifeless starry sky."

"Until one day, an unknown space suddenly collided with the Land of Stars. With this collision, a large amount of seven-colored light flowed out from that unknown space and poured into the Land of Stars. From then on, the Land of Stars possessed enormous energy, the stars began to twinkle, and life began to be born."

Good heavens, these words stunned Chu Ci. Such a coincidence! That unknown space was clearly the Dragon Valley Small World, and the seven-colored light must be the power of the Dragon God.

Xingyuan continued, "After an unknown amount of time, a dragon's roar resounded across the land of stars, and I was born. On the day I was born, I gained a fragment of memories. From those memories, I understood that my birth was closely related to the Dragon God."

"Since then, a long time has passed, and more and more living beings have been born. Because we evolved from stars and were born carrying stellar power, we call ourselves the Starfall Clan."

"Under my leadership, the Starfall Forest was established and a partnership was formed with the later Star Crown Xu family to jointly create the current Star Land."

After listening, Chu Ci sighed inwardly at the long history of the development of soul beasts.

"So now, the Starfall Clan's development in the Starry Lands can no longer be sustained?" Chu Ci asked with interest.

Xingyuan nodded. "That's right. The Starry Land is too small, and the resources are almost insufficient for the Xu family and the Starfall Clan to share. If this continues, the Starfall Clan will inevitably have a life-or-death battle with the Xu family, which would be too costly and something I don't want to see."

“But you know the situation outside right now. Not to mention you, even Di Tian, ​​the strongest of the Soul Beast race, doesn’t dare to show his face in public,” Chu Ci said.

“However, there is a way that might alleviate the burden on your Starfall Clan,” Chu Ci said, taking out the Dragon God Core.

……

Five soul rings, one purple and one black, rose from beneath Xu Xinning's feet, while the soul spirit of the Starfall Lion King nestled beside her.

Chu Ci was also sent back by Xingyuan at this time. Feeling Xu Xinning's strong aura, he smiled and said, "Not bad, it seems you have gained a lot."

Xu Xinning smiled brightly, her high ponytail swaying gently. "This is all thanks to you. You're really amazing. You even defeated such a powerful soul beast as the Starfall Lion King."

Chu Ci waved his hand and said modestly, "Your boost helped me a lot, otherwise I would have had a hard time winning so easily."

Just as the two were talking, Xu Jiashan interrupted, "Alright, now that the soul spirit has been absorbed, hurry back to the fifth area to cultivate."

"Okay, Grandpa," Xu Xinning replied cheerfully, then turned to Chu Ci and said gently, "Let's go, I'll take you out."

After Chu Ci and Xu Xinning left, Xing Yuan suddenly appeared beside Xu Jiashan.

Xu Jiashan scanned the Starfall Forest with his spiritual power and noticed that the noise and the presence of living beings in the Starfall Forest had decreased significantly.

So he turned to look at Xingyuan beside him and said hesitantly, "This..."

Xingyuan said calmly, "It's just an adjustment made for the future of the Starfall Clan."

Xu Jiashan's face suddenly darkened. The decrease in the number of Starfall Clan members would lead to a decline in the quality of star power in the Star Land, which was not good news for the Xu family.

"Ancestor Xingyuan, the kindness of my Xu family ancestors to the Xingyun clan..."

Xingyuan waved his hand to interrupt Xu Jiashan, "I know the favors the Xu family has done for the Xingyun clan, you don't need to remind me."

“But if things continue to develop as they are now, both the Starfall Clan and the Xu Family must make changes, or they will inevitably decline. You should be well aware of this.” Xingyuan’s eyes, as deep as the starry sky, looked at Xu Jiashan, making him tremble.

"So what the Star Origin Ancestor means is that Chu Ci is the key to breaking the deadlock," Xu Jiashan said in a deep voice.

“That’s right, but that’s on the premise that the Xu family is willing to relocate to the Federation,” Xingyuan said.

Chapter 196 Starfall Enters the Realm of Farewell to the Moon

Xu Jiashan gripped his cane tightly and said in a deep voice, "But the land of stars contains the foundation of my Xu family, and we cannot give it up."

"What if we could take the Land of Stars with us?" Xingyuan asked, and Xu Jiashan was stunned.

Xingyuan patted Xu Jiashan on the shoulder, "Think it over carefully!"

After saying that, Xingyuan turned into starlight and disappeared, leaving only Xu Jiashan with an uncertain expression.

Xingyuan needs to hurry up and prepare for the relocation to the Federation. As for whether Xu Jiashan will agree?

Dynasties come and go, but powerful families remain steadfast. The enduring strength of these families has never been based on loyalty to any particular dynasty.
