Chapter 432: Crisis!

Nine layers of starry rivers stacked upon each other, mysterious and unfathomable, surged toward the high heavens in a spectacular scene, like a star domain flying from beyond the realm, exuding an ancient and domineering aura as it rushed in all directions.

The starlight was brilliant and dazzling. The Star Tower stood atop the ninefold heavens, as if to break through eternity and shake heaven and earth.

Sensing the treasure appearing in the void, Fatty's eyes widened and shone with light. He couldn't help but say, "This is actually a supreme treasure refined from nine Star Sand grains!"

"Such a powerful defensive sacred object, nine layers of starry rivers stacked—truly incredible!" Xiao Ji was also astonished. Not just them, but the crowd outside was nearly petrified.

"Gulp..." Someone swallowed saliva, their eyes filled with disbelief, standing like a statue. A single Star Sand grain was already extraordinary, and now they saw a treasure refined from nine grains.

"This is a supreme treasure modeled after the Star Tower!" The old woman of the Su family was shocked. Too many unexpected events had occurred today. This youth was far more powerful than she had imagined.

"This guy is so wealthy. Adding the Nine Heavens Star Sand from earlier, this is already the tenth grain." Su Jinyue, a princess of a major clan in the Central Region, was also startled.

The ninefold star domain stacked together had astonishing defensive power. Coupled with Yang Tian's cultivation having surged several stages, the power he channeled into this artifact was terrifying.

Yang Tian's entire body blazed with golden light, like a great golden river surging upward, pouring into the Star Tower as he fully urged the artifact's power.

The essence of heaven and earth from all directions converged, gradually forming a vortex. The aura emitted by the Star Tower grew increasingly terrifying, and the entire tower expanded to over thirty zhang, suppressing this void with all its might.

"What a great harvest today!" The young man's greedy eyes swept over the Star Tower. This was a rare treasure that could be elevated to a supreme artifact; nurtured properly, it would become extremely fearsome.

"All these things are mine!" He clenched his fist, his eyes scanning Yun'er, a lewd smile curling at the corner of his mouth as he couldn't help but laugh loudly.

Boom! He struck out fiercely. The sky trembled violently, cracking with astonishing fissures. This realm was now filled with myriad beams of black light, now radiant with sacred brilliance. He was like a demon god incarnate, so powerful that even heaven and earth trembled.

The figures from various clans were shocked. This young man was too terrifying; none of his peers could defeat him!

The star domain collided with the surging energy in the void, the sound like thunderclaps, as if two great mountains had crashed together.

With a thunderous roar, the ground beneath Yang Tian's feet cracked, and his entire body sank into it, waves of tearing pain shooting through him.

The young man sneered, anger rising from the repeated obstructions. He launched a lethal strike, determined to kill Yang Tian.

"Boom!" The ninefold star domain trembled. Blazing divine light shot down, shattering layers of void, like sharp divine swords descending.

All the experts lamented. Though Yang Tian was formidable, the young man was too astonishing. The gap between their realms was like the difference between heaven and earth, not something artifacts could bridge.

Yang Tian's body trembled incessantly, blood flowing from his mouth and nose. He suffered unimaginable shock, his flesh splitting open.

"Bastard!" Several people in the distance were still suppressed, unable to break free, watching helplessly as Yang Tian's body bled, his bones nearly exposed.

Layer after layer of starry rivers shattered. The Star Tower swayed, heaven and earth quaked. That figure walked forward step by step, his eyes fixed on the Star Tower, greed flickering in them.

Sure enough, his body blazed with dazzling divine light, like a fearsome deity. Staring at the Star Tower, he reached out his hand to grab it.

All the powerhouses felt immense regret that this fearsome object was about to fall into the hands of the demon race, but none dared to act; a figure as terrifying as him required an emperor-level being to suppress.

"Kill him, kill this little beast!" Before the one-armed old man in white in the ancient sacred land, a woman tightly wrapped in a black robe gritted her teeth inwardly, her killing intent icy cold.

She wore a tight black robe, her curves extremely taut, her full breasts seeming ready to burst through the fabric, very eye-catching.

"Gu Lingyun is getting more and more tempting..." Some juniors from the ancient sacred land nearby couldn't help swallowing their saliva. She had already lost her reputation, and many juniors showed no respect for the old saintess, their eyes greedily sweeping over her body as if they wanted to devour her.

"Die!" At this moment, Yang Tian suddenly roared. Countless dazzling sword lights burst forth from within, chaotic sword energy soaring into the sky, making hearts tremble, as if heaven and earth were about to split apart.

"Hmph!" The young man snorted coldly. The small bone tower appeared on his forehead, emerging into the void, emitting a gray mist that blocked the lethal strike.

The small bone tower trembled slightly, and heaven and earth shook. An extremely powerful artifact appeared above the Starry Tower, unleashing unparalleled might, attempting to imprison the Starry Tower.

At this moment, Yang Tian's eyes turned upward. A blood-colored beam suddenly shot out from the Starry Tower, and a soul-shaking aura instantly swept in all directions.

"What the hell is this? So terrifying..." The fat man's body shook, his soul trembling as if about to prostrate itself.

This sudden change, though only for an instant, drew everyone's gaze. All eyes fixed on the blood-colored beam, swift as thunder, and their bodies turned cold.

The young man also sensed something wrong. The small bone tower turned back and instantly appeared before the blood-colored beam, intending to shake it to death.

However, to his great astonishment, the sealing power of the small bone tower had no effect on the blood-colored beam. The beam merely trembled lightly and shook the small bone tower away.

Seeing this, the young man's pupils contracted slightly. He could sense that the bone pagoda artifact spirit was trembling, extremely terrified, as if encountering a natural enemy, retreating.

Swish! The blood-colored beam did not slow down at all, appearing instantly before the young man, tearing through a layer of light shield at a terrifying speed, drilling toward his brow.

"Not good, this is a soul treasure!" The young man's expression changed slightly. His brow suddenly split open, like a vertical eye, emitting an aura that terrified all living beings.

The opened vertical eye was blood-red, with an evil energy spreading, startling the crowd.

"What kind of divine ability is this? So eerie." Xi Shan's gaze swept over the blood-red vertical eye, somewhat incredulous, murmuring.

"Isn't it just opening the heavenly eye? When my cultivation is higher, I'll be able to do it too..." The fatty muttered, unimpressed by this divine ability.

Hearing this, Xi Shan and the others glanced at him. This fatty was extremely mysterious, and his cultivation was formidable. Under such immense pressure earlier, he was still lively, showing how powerful he was.

The split vertical eye suddenly burst forth a blood-red light, like a blood-colored passage, emitting a chilling aura, instantly striking the beam ahead.

With a sharp clang, a piercing sound rang out in the void, extremely harsh, making one's soul tremble.

"Open!" Yang Tian shouted inwardly, fully activating the Divine Dragon Soul-Suppressing Jade. The soul power in his sea of consciousness was rapidly depleting; activating a divine artifact was no easy task.

As Yang Tian expected, the blood-colored purgatory he had just gathered was torn open by the Divine Dragon Soul-Suppressing Jade, still shooting forth.

"Not bad, this artifact is excellent!" Instead of being angry, he laughed, unable to resist licking his lips. His eyes, like torches, showed extreme greed.
