Jian Wushuang trembled slightly upon hearing the title “God King.”

That being was none other than the founder of the Starry Sky.

Even he had shown such respect toward Master Xuan Yi. It seemed Jian Wushuang had underestimated his master.

But the core issue lay with the Divine Eye Clan.

Senior Brother Ghost Eye had chosen the method of sacrifice, allowing him to quickly master the Divine Eye Secret Technique. Wasn’t this method a bit too cruel?

However, compared to the extinction of the race created by Giant God Star Spirit, this was already quite kind.

“Since it’s about suppression, what does Lord Star Spirit mean?” Jian Wushuang asked anxiously.

With a sorrowful tone, Giant God Star Spirit replied, “I hope you do not devour their power.”

“This… you must be overthinking it. I, Jian Wushuang, would never do something so disgraceful!” Jian Wushuang patted his chest and assured confidently.

However, the eyes of Giant God Star Spirit told him otherwise—the spirit did not trust him.

Recalling that Giant God Star Spirit had said they had met before, and it was a long time ago, Jian Wushuang suddenly understood.

Giant God Star Spirit must have felt a connection between their kind and him back when the Qishen Temple had dealings with Giant God Star Clan. That glance must have revealed the sacrificial act he had performed on behalf of King Bai.

Now, the spirit was worried that Jian Wushuang might sacrifice the Divine Eye Clan again, and had come specifically to plead with him.

Such humility was almost embarrassing.

Jian Wushuang, feeling a bit awkward, quickly promised, “Rest assured, Lord Star Spirit, I will not trouble the Divine Eye Clan. When the time comes, I will place them all within the Nine Prison Pagoda. Once I’ve perfected the Divine Eye Secret Technique, I will certainly offer the Nine Prison Pagoda to you. I’m sure my Senior Brother Ghost Eye would also want you and your clan to receive the understanding of your ancestor.”

The real reason for the Star Spirit’s courteous behavior was likely due to the influence of Ghost Eye.

Ghost Eye was strong, and Giant God Star Spirit was naturally proud. Otherwise, the spirit would not have spared Ghost Eye when the entire Divine Eye Clan had been wiped out. It was clear the spirit had not wanted to harm him.

As expected, when Jian Wushuang mentioned Ghost Eye, Giant God Star Spirit became visibly happier.

The spirit’s thoughts about Ghost Eye were quite evident.

“You are truly a formidable individual, chosen by that great figure. Your future achievements will certainly not fall short of those of your Senior Brother Ghost Eye. I have high hopes for you. As for the Nine Prison Pagoda, there will be someone else in need of it once your Divine Eye Secret Technique is complete. I won’t say who it is, but when the time is right, you will naturally understand.” Giant God Star Spirit gazed at Jian Wushuang more favorably now, sighing internally. If only Ghost Eye had been as clever, perhaps the entire Divine Eye Clan wouldn’t have been annihilated by the spirit’s own hand.

Jian Wushuang licked his lips. He wasn’t one to flatter people without reason, but this Colossal Star Spirit was not just any being—it was a Star Spirit, and the ancestor of Giant God Star Clan. Surely, the spirit had many treasures. Being so respectful and clever, and as Ghost Eye’s junior brother, shouldn’t he receive a small token of appreciation to deepen their bond?

Giant God Star Spirit glanced at Jian Wushuang and, after a brief pause, said, “I came here in a rush and didn’t prepare anything worthy as a gift. I shall give you a special treasure instead—this is a leaf I took from the ancient texts of the Starry Sky.”

With that, a blue leaf, crisscrossed with a hundred intricate veins, appeared in the Star Spirit’s eyes. Though it was only the size of a palm, it contained endless mysteries.

Jian Wushuang gazed at the leaf, swallowing hard, and quickly replied, “Lord Star Spirit, you are too kind. It’s an honor just to meet you. How could I possibly accept such a gift?”

He didn’t reach out to take it, but the leaf floated to him nonetheless.

“Young one, may your future path be as optimistic as your character.”

With those words, the enormous eyes of Giant God Star Spirit faded from Jian Wushuang’s mind.

All that remained was the blue leaf, brimming with the power of the Starry Sky.

“Safe travels!” Jian Wushuang bowed deeply.

Rising again, he eagerly reached for the leaf.

As soon as he held it in his hand, he felt a surge of comfort.

“The leaf itself contained a unique space-time. Even a Space-Time God would be envious! As expected of a Star Spirit; anything it produces is extraordinary. But I wonder what use this item has for me right now?” Jian Wushuang pondered, his thoughts drifting to the Starry Sky Tree mentioned by the Giant Star Spirit.

Back then, Weiss had also spoken of an ancient tree as old as the Starry Sky itself.

Legend had it that the Starry Sky had been created in this very place because that ancient tree had taken root here.

Thinking of this, Jian Wushuang became even more excited and immediately used his Thought power to probe the leaf.

In an instant, a terrifying will surged into his soul.

If it weren’t for the will of the Realm Beast protecting him, this single strike would have been fatal.

“It’s too powerful. Unless I’m at my peak strength, my Thought power can’t penetrate it!” He was both thrilled and slightly disappointed.

The leaf, like the gray jar he possessed, was currently unusable, something he could only look at without converting it into combat power immediately.

While he was grappling with both excitement and frustration, he noticed that the leaf could freely transform, remaining both formless and colorless.

The transformations followed his very thoughts.

“Change!” With a thought, Jian Wushuang willed the leaf to turn into armor.

A blue set of armor appeared before his eyes.

“Change again!”

Swish!

In an instant, the leaf transformed into a blue divine sword.

The sword, brimming with the power of the Starry Sky, wasn’t as powerful as his nurtured Myriad Tribulations Sword, but it was still stronger than ordinary space-time treasures.

“I’ve hit the jackpot!” Jian Wushuang exclaimed in excitement.

This leaf could change according to his will, not only transforming into armor to protect him but also into a weapon.

“Wait a second, I haven’t even used a drop of blood to claim it as mine. How am I able to control the leaf?” He paused, then quickly realized.

It must have been the Giant Star Spirit that had helped him accomplish this.

Otherwise, even if he tried the most primitive method of using blood to recognize the leaf as his, it wouldn’t have worked. Not to mention using his will to do so.

After all, his Thought power couldn’t even penetrate the leaf’s interior.

After thinking it over, he gave a command: “Relax your consciousness, don’t resist!”

Once again, his Thought power cautiously probed the leaf.

As expected, the same thing happened as before—the leaf repelled him, sending him flying out of its core.

The leaf circled around him once as if to mock him, saying, “Don’t waste your energy. Even if I let you hit me, you’d never succeed.”

Jian Wushuang sighed in resignation, giving up entirely. He could only make simple use of this leaf from the Starry Sky Tree.

“Transform into the vine of the Myriad Willow Divine Wood!”

Whoosh!

The leaf, which had taken the form of armor, instantly extended a vine that began waving freely.

“Stop!!”

Jian Wushuang hurriedly commanded it to stop, feeling like his brain had been drained in the process.

He immediately left his consciousness world, bringing the leaf with him.

Back in the real world, inside the Nine Prison Pagoda, Xiang Yang and the others looked at him with curious expressions.

Jian Wushuang glanced down and noticed the blue armor on his body.

With a thought, the armor retreated into his body, leaving him in his usual white robe.
