"Roar."
A ferocious roar resounded through the starry sky as one of the Starry Sky Beast's claws was crippled by Ye Lin's punch, blood spraying across the void.
"Saint-Falling Fist."
Ye Lin threw another punch, aimed directly at the Starry Sky Beast's head. Its head was its only weakness; only by shattering it could he finish it off completely.
"Roar."
"Time Pause."
The Starry Sky Beast tried to raise its other claw to block, but in the next instant, an invisible ripple spread outward. Its enormous body immediately froze in the starry sky, utterly motionless.
The next moment, a golden fist descended upon its head. That massive head, as large as a star, was smashed apart by Ye Lin's single punch like a watermelon.
Within it, a golden sphere the size of a fist floated quietly in the void. Mysterious ripples emanated from its surface, making it seem incomparably enigmatic.
"So this is the core? I didn't expect it to be this tiny."
Looking at the golden sphere before him, Ye Lin caught it in his hand and toyed with the golden core in his right palm, somewhat disappointed.
Wasn't this a little too small? Compared to the Starry Sky Beast's enormous body, this core was... how should he put it? Like placing a microorganism inside a bucket.
"This is the core. It contains extremely dense Soul Power. In the starry sky, there are not many treasures capable of strengthening Soul Power, and this core is an exceptional supreme treasure."
"Don't judge it by its size. Just this little bit can raise your Soul Power by roughly ten percent. You should be secretly delighted—don't be greedy."
"However, I don't recommend absorbing it now. Wait until you reach Sky Cloud Star and obtain a soul cultivation technique, then consider absorbing it.
