Across a vast stretch of the battlefield, the earth-shaking battle abruptly stopped.
Demons and the Divine Army alike temporarily stilled their weapons, tilting their heads toward the sky to watch the clash.
The bloody, brutal atmosphere suddenly froze. For a moment, many soldiers of the Nine-City Divine Army, battered and overwhelmed, unexpectedly gained a chance to catch their breath thanks to the infighting between two Human Race youths.
Many demons and Divine Army soldiers were seeing Xiao Chen fight for the first time. They had heard his name, but never witnessed his might.
Now, seeing the heavens split and starshine rain down everywhere, they stared in stunned disbelief.
Starshine power was ancient and terrifying.
The Star God Hall had once ruled the three realms, reigning supreme throughout the universe.
There was no one who did not know it, no one who had not heard of it!
Yet in that battle countless ages ago, the Star God Hall had fractured from within. The Martial God Hall seized the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, grievously damaging its foundations. It sealed itself within the Star God Domain and had not manifested its divine presence for tens of thousands of years!
Even so, in the Mortal World, a few whose affinity with the stars ran deep could still occasionally receive divine favor!
However, wielding starshine power usually required the dead of night.
Daytime Star Summoning was exceedingly rare.
Even when a few deeply favored individuals occasionally managed it, their display could never have been this astonishing!
When others summoned the stars, their starshine was a hazy glow!
When Xiao Chen summoned the stars, the assembled stars eclipsed the sun!
"Withering-and-Bloom Life-and-Death Sword!"
Zhou Buyu had fought a bloody battle against Xiao Chen before and knew full well that he could control starshine power.
