Xuanyang had not yet recovered from his shock.
Lu Zhen began cultivating.
Within his body, a thousand Star Vortexes were linked by countless fine "streams"—channels where blood vitality and star power intertwined, flowing without end.

His Inner Landscape shook violently.
The streams that had once trickled suddenly surged like breached dams.

The streams were forcibly widened.
Great rivers of law thundered onward.

So what?
