Chapter 24: Starry Fruit Tree, Starry Heavenly Maiden (Seeking Bookmarks)

  Endless chaos, no distinction between east and west, north and south, only countless chaotic whirlwinds and storms, yet there is a place where only one high ten-thousand-zhang canopy emitting twinkling starlight can be seen, enveloping a giant tree that is also ten-thousand-zhang tall.

  A giant tree, ten million feet tall and a million feet wide, with countless towering branches stretching out, its roots deep and leaves lush, the leaves dense, and starlight shining through the gaps between them. Between the branches and leaves, numerous spirit fruits like stars are growing, emitting mysterious and distant starlight.

  The space shrouded in starlight is completely different from the chaos outside, like a starry sky, with stars twinkling, and under the big tree, it's a vast expanse of white mud, emitting infinite vitality.

  "Wipe, the Chaotic Star Fruit Tree? Isn't this the most precious treasure of the Chaotic Star Clan? It disappeared into the infinite chaos after the extinction of the Chaotic Star Clan, how can it appear here? Hmm? So that's it, it's actually the Chaotic Treasure Land - Stellar Mud, one of the top treasures with earth attributes under the Nine Heavens' Soil. No wonder it can make the Star Fruit Tree thrive." Huang Xiaoyao exclaimed.

  Huang Xiaoyao swallowed the residual soul of the desolate god, although she couldn't get much memory, but in the memory, there was information about the Chaos Star Clan. The Chaos Star Clan is the most mysterious clan in the chaos, and they are all female, known as the Starry Sky Goddesses. They were all born from a fruit tree, the Chaos Star Fruit Tree.

  In Huang Xiaoyou's impression, the Star Fruit Tree may not be comparable to the Thirty-Sixth Rank Causal Green Lotus, but it contains the most complete Star Path, known as the Ancestor of Stars. Even Pangu's Three Thousand Great Paths' Star Path was learned from the Chaotic Star Clan, and its power can be imagined.

  Huang Xiaoyao stepped into the light shield, and the Broken Law God's eyes shot out a green light. Huang Xiaoyao suddenly felt dizzy and disoriented, as if his soul had entered a vast starry world that contained everything. There were countless stars here, seemingly with spiritual awareness, and they seemed to be extremely surprised by Huang Xiaoyao's arrival, yet also filled with boundless joy.

  "The Hun Tian Star Array, with the star fruit tree as its core, surrounded by 365 of the strongest star fruits, and powered by billions of star fruits, formed this fifth-ranked Chaos Great Array in the chaos. Impressive! No wonder it can survive until now, and pass through countless calamities. Hmm? What is that?"

  Huang Xiaoyao's Broken Law Divine Eyes continued to analyze and reorganize the Hun Tian Star Array, constantly analyzing the composition of the array. At this moment, Huang Xiaoyao's divine sense actually came into contact with a mysterious spiritual fluctuation, which shocked him greatly.

  The yellow little demon's divine consciousness kept getting closer and closer, constantly grasping the Hun Tian Star Array. Suddenly, he saw a beautiful girl, the girl looked at him with a pair of eyes full of spirituality, shining like stars, very touching.

  "Ah! You've finally come, I've waited countless eons for you, waaahhh... you've finally come to rescue us! My people and I can finally leave this endless prison behind! I'm so overjoyed!" The girl laughed while crying tears of joy, evoking sympathy from all who saw her.

  "Huh? Who is this girl? Do you know me?" Huang Xiaoyao didn't dare to be careless, after the incident with the Wild God, he knew that the Chaos was full of danger and mystery.

  "I don't know, but countless eons ago, our ancestral tree exhausted her own vitality, at the cost of her life, and using the great stellar divination technique, she calculated a fortune for our star clan, saying that after countless eons, someone would come to save us. That person has white hair and eyes emitting green light... isn't that you?"

  Mother tree? Star tribe? Could it be the Stellaluna Tree and the Chaos Star Tribe?

  "Are you saying that the Star Fruit Tree is dead? Are you from the Chaotic Star Tribe? Then what is this tree in front of us?" Huang Xiaoyao asked.

  "Uh, we are the Chaotic Star Clan, and I am the Taiyin Tiangong of the Chaotic Star Clan. This tree is not the Mother Tree, it's just a branch of the Mother Tree that was born from the starry mud after absorbing our clan's essence. The real Mother Tree is much taller and has spiritual awareness, while this star fruit tree hasn't even given birth to spiritual awareness yet. And the 365 largest star fruits on top are the 365 Star Tiangong of our clan, while the other star fruits are our clansmen."

  "Hmm, so what makes you think I can save you?"

  "I don't know either, but Mother Tree said before she died that the key lies in your blood, I don't understand it either." said Taiyintian Girl.

  "Blood? Could it be the Great Blood Technique?" Huang Xiaoyou fell into confusion, then thought about the special properties of his own blood.

  Huang Shen once said that his bloodline was extremely noble, with a very strong vitality, and could even subdue some spiritual treasures. Could it be that the star fruit tree in front of him was being treated as a spiritual treasure to be refined? Huang Xiaoyao thought it was worth a try.

  After an unknown period of time, Huang Xiaoyou's Broken Law Divine Eyes finally fully comprehended the Hun Tian Star Array. Then, with a flash of his body, he entered the light screen and arrived under the Star Fruit Tree. Suddenly, a strong spiritual energy rushed to his head, while the starry mud beneath his feet transmitted high-quality spiritual energy that could actually enhance his physical body.

  "The Starry Mud is indeed worthy of being the second-ranked treasure in the Chaos, containing such powerful star force that it's only inferior to the Chaos Qi, and it's easier for people to absorb. If I take it to the Desolate Expanse, it would be the best treasure to cultivate my disciples with! Hmm, let me try using my blood first."

  Huang Xiaoyao used the Great Blood Refining Technique to condense a drop of heart blood, which he then dripped onto the Starfruit Tree. The blood instantly merged into the tree's epidermis, and everything returned to silence.

  Huang Xiaoyou couldn't believe it, his bloodline was originally a combination of the Chaotic Demon God Tian Tian and the Blood God's bloodline, and later he had been tempered by countless dragon tribe's essence, now he had even evolved into a Savage Heaven Dragon Avatar. Huang Xiaoyou knew that this drop of essence contained enormous energy.

  "Isn't that enough? Alright, let me see how much you can absorb." Huang Xiaoyao once again condensed her vital energy and dripped it into the Starfruit Tree.

  One drop, no reaction; two drops, no reaction; three drops, no reaction.

  Until Huang Xiaoyao's face turned pale and his body's vital energy was exhausted, the Star Fruit Tree suddenly burst out with a spiritual windstorm. A red glow suddenly flowed over the surface of the Star Fruit Tree, then as if transforming, it extended from the roots up continuously.

  Ten jō

  Hundred Stages

  Ten thousand feet

  90,000 feet

  At the time of nine million feet, the red light suddenly stopped, as if it was exhausted. The star fruit tree trembled, and countless star fruits shook violently, as if hoping that Huang Xiaoyao would come to offer more essence blood.

  "I'm exhausted, I've depleted my vital energy after all these years of accumulation, and who knows when I'll be able to replenish it?! Ah, my poor vital energy! Wait, don't I still have five units of vital energy from the Five Saints Mountain's Five Demon Saints? That's the vital energy of Chaos Beasts, containing the yin-yang path of the Heavenly Beast, the nine elements of the Nine-Headed Phoenix, the deadly poison of the Ancient Giant Crocodile, the mighty divine power of the Ancient Green Bull, and the infinite transformation path of the Ancient Divine Vine! Haha, Devouring Technique, Blood Spirit Technique, full-power absorption!"

  Only to see a black whirlpool and a blood-red whirlpool floating in front of Huang Xiaoyao, then swallowing five clusters of essence and blood. After an unknown period of time, Huang Xiaoyao swallowed the refined essence and blood, and his pale face finally slowly turned red!

  Huang Xiaoyao immediately took out a drop of even more mysterious and refined blood, then dripped it into the Starfruit Tree. The Starfruit Tree suddenly shook with excitement, and the originally stagnant blood-colored ripples finally began to flow upwards again.

  One hundred thousand feet! Boom! Huang Xiaoyao's soul was instantly filled with an extremely powerful Tao, this great Tao is mysterious and all-encompassing, Huang Xiaoyao seemed to have arrived at a boundless starry sky, his soul moving along with the stars, comprehending the mysteries of the universe.

  "Stardust tree, the ancestor of the stardust way, transforms into countless stardust ways. I am the stardust tree, the stardust tree is me, transforms into countless stardust ways, the stardust way!"

  Huang Xiaoyao spoke words of utmost mystery, and his body suddenly transformed into nothingness, hiding in the Star Cherry Tree. In an instant, Huang Xiaoyao completely transformed into a 100,000-zhang Star Cherry Tree, with countless roots buried in the starry mud, and countless branches and leaves depicting the infinite ways of the stars. Then he felt himself nurturing countless lives, as if he were the ancestral creator, immersed in the realm of the Way of Life.

  "Haha, it's too powerful! I've obtained another avatar, and it has mastered the most comprehensive Stellar Dao. It's even more powerful than the Wild God's Barbaric Dao, and it's giving birth to countless Star Clan members. The 365 Star Maiden Heavenly Girls may have been injured at their source, but each one of them is a Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm. If they're given time to cultivate, they can completely become quasi-saints! What an incredibly powerful force this is!"

  Huang Xiaoyao was over the moon with excitement. This trip had yielded far more than he could have ever imagined, completely beyond his expectations. Was this what they meant by "good fortune comes after great hardship"?

  "Ah! You've finally succeeded, you're so amazing, can you awaken my people? We've been asleep for countless years, I miss them so much." At some point, the Taiyin Tiangong suddenly materialized from the tree, making Huang Xiaoyao feel as if he had given birth to a daughter, an extremely strange feeling.

  "Alright, the Way of the Stars, countless stars transform, the Star Maiden awakens! I can only awaken the 365 intelligent Star Maidens, the others from the Star Clan were too weak in their past lives, their soul origins have already disappeared, leaving only power origins." Huang Xiaoyao said.

  "Hmm! Thank you, I've already mentally prepared myself. After all, that great calamity destroyed the Three Thousand Tribes of Chaos, and we survived only by relying on the power of the Mother Tree. As long as Xīng Chén Tiān Nǚ doesn't die, the Xīng Chén Tribe won't be extinguished. Xīng Chén Tiān Nǚ is the foundation of the Xīng Chén Tribe." Tàiyīn Tiān Nǚ said.

  Suddenly, the Star Fruit Tree vigorously absorbed the spiritual energy of the Star Mud. Three hundred and sixty-four of the largest star fruits burst open one after another, transforming into beautiful women with different shapes and forms. The women had distinct personalities, leaving Huang Xiaoyou staring in awe.

  "Ah! The feeling of being surrounded by a sea of flowers is indeed very comfortable!" Huang Xiaoyao suddenly transformed from the Starfruit tree into human form, flew down to the ground, and arrived among the women.

  "Thanks to Star Lord for saving our lives!" The 365 Star Maiden immediately knelt down.

  "Ah! Get up, get up, you don't have to kneel anymore, we're all family. Hmm, this one is the Sun Goddess, these twelve are the Twelve Star Maidens of the Zodiac, and then there are the Twenty-four Star Maidens of the Constellations, the Thirty-six Heavenly Pairs, and the Seventy-two Earthly Fiends. Am I right?" Huang Xiaoyou said, he had already grasped the complete Way of the Stars and could distinguish which star a girl represented from her aura.

  "Ah, Star Master is really formidable. Star Master, you should put the Star Tree away first. Alas, the Mother Tree can no longer be reborn. Perhaps from now on, our Star Tribe will only have us 365 Heavenly Maidens left." The sorrowful Taiyin Tian Nu said.

  "Taiyin sister, we're already lucky to be alive. From now on, let's continue to cultivate and grow stronger, then help the Star Master break free from fate's restraints, that's our responsibility." The other Tiangong Dao said.

  Huang Xiaoyao took out the Desolate Dragon Realm, also known as the former Great Wilderness Sacred Tower, and then sucked it into space. In an instant, the entire light curtain enveloped space was moved into the Desolate Dragon Realm.

  Boom! The Star Fruit Tree took root in the first layer, and the Star Mud also settled at the center of the first layer. The branches and leaves of the Star Fruit Tree pierced through the twelve-layered spatial world, instantly becoming a pillar of the Desolate Dragon Realm. Countless tree roots and branches continuously merged with the edges of the Desolate Dragon Realm, and Huang Xiaoyou suddenly felt that the power of the Desolate Dragon Realm had doubled. Countless star fruits transformed into the true stars of the twelve-layered spatial world, while the Universe Star Array enveloped the Star Fruit Tree.

  "Alright, you can also enter the Desolate Dragon Realm. From now on, you will cultivate on the Star Tree. The development of the Desolate Dragon Realm will be according to your wishes, feel free to modify it as you like."

  Huang Xiaoyao handed over the countless spiritual medicines and herbs she had received before, as well as a few spiritual roots, to Xingchen Tiannü. Then, she had them planted in the Savage Dragon Realm, transforming into a Savage Heaven Dragon and flying into the vast expanse of the void.

  After flying for an unknown period of time, a dazzling light pierced into Huang Xiaoyao's eyes. Huang Xiaoyao opened his divine eyes to take a look and found that it was not the Pangu world, but what happened in the Pangu world shocked him, and at the same time, he became more eager to enter the Pangu world.
