In front, the invisible barrier quietly retreated as Star God passed by.

Wu Wang followed this path, trailing behind Star God, heading towards the deepest part of the starry sky. His expression showed no signs of being moved, but there was always a slight sense of nervousness in his mind and soul.

What should he do?

Roaming through the starry sky, Star God's figure was still ahead.

This scene made Wu Wang feel somewhat absurd and dreamlike.

But he did not take it lightly, and there were always some lingering doubts in his heart.

Was Star God too easy to talk to?

He was just a living being, a "decoration" in Star God's words.

Would people be polite to an ordinary button and even leave their inheritance to it?

Wu Wang tried to convince himself that Star God's remnant soul must have been forced into a desperate situation by his mother, and had no choice but to bury hidden dangers, but...

He always felt that Star God was too calm and did not have that sense of despair.

It was more like carrying the thought of "I can still fight" and "this wave can turn defeat into victory".

Star God's acting skills were a bit lacking.

Or rather, Star God didn't bother to hide anything at all.

Was he afraid that Star God would see his thoughts? Wu Wang lowered his head and walked forward, trying to relax his soul as much as possible, while keeping those previous insights in his heart.

Doesn't Star God ask about his origins?

Doesn't he even bother to ask his name?

This seemingly "Desperate Trust in the Dao" act had too many questions.

The biggest problem was that Star God had shown shock and eagerness towards Wu Wang's Dao, but now it seemed that he didn't care much about it...

But Star God's remnant soul was still Star God, something that Wu Wang couldn't contend with. At this moment, he could only adapt to the situation and take it step by step.

Suddenly, Star God stopped in his tracks.

Wu Wang immediately stopped, with a hint of confusion.

"Star God, what's wrong?"

"We cannot return to our original bodies," Star God turned to look at Wu Wang, a bitter smile appearing on his lips. "The Ice God is waiting for me."

Wu Wang asked, "Ice God? Who is she?"

"The Goddess of Ice."

Star God said in a low voice:

"This is a war between gods. The Ice God is my enemy and also the god that Candling Dragon trusts the most.

In the ancient war of gods, I was severely injured and fell into a deep sleep in the starry sky.

When I woke up, I found that she had taken control of my divine body, about to erase my consciousness and reshape the spirit of my divine artifact."

Wu Wang:...

His mother was really powerful.

Star God pointed a finger forward, and the starlight converged into a blurry scene.

The Starry Sky Temple, Wu Wang was not unfamiliar with it.

But at this moment, the Starry Sky Temple was surrounded by sixteen chains of the Great Dao, emitting a strong aura of majesty.

Neither Star God's remnant thought nor Wu Wang could see any details inside.

Star God said slowly, "I have a long-standing grudge with the Ice God. She won't let me go, just as I won't let her go if I have the chance in the future."

Aren't you about to hiccup?

These six words "if I have the chance in the future" are too insulting!

Wu Wang asked, "According to the records passed down by the North Wilderness, after the war of the gods, the other side should have been expelled. Why can they still come back?"

"There was a problem with the seal of heaven and earth," Star God said, "The absence of the Great Dao of Fire caused a crack in the seal... Well, you don't need to know about these things now.

I will incorporate a strand of your divine soul into my body as a mark for you to control the Great Dao of the Stars in the future."

Wu Wang:...

He hesitated slightly, raised his hand and touched his forehead. A faint light flew out and slowly approached Star God.

At this moment, the slightly conflicted look in Wu Wang's eyes, the slightly pursed corners of his mouth, and the smallest amount of divine soul thoughts made Star God's eyes show a hint of impatience.

When the faint light floated over, Star God caught it with his fingertips and flicked it lightly.

Wu Wang really thought that his strand of divine soul would be casually thrown away by Star God, but what happened next touched him deeply.

In that instant, Wu Wang felt as if he was soaring, shuttling through the endless universe in the starry sky, flying towards the deepest part of the starry sky.

He had been there before, even just recently in the illusion created by his mother.

The place where Star God's original body slept.

That overwhelmingly majestic and sacred Star God's original body seemed to be sound asleep, still covering the wound with one hand and holding the Ten Thousand Star Disk with the other.

As Wu Wang approached Star God's original body, the faint light flickered gently, trembling a few times as if avoiding some obstacles, and went straight into Star God's brow.

In that instant, Wu Wang even had the illusion of "I am Star God"!

His strand of divine soul immediately felt a bone-chilling coldness, similar to the place where a cultivator's divine mansion and spiritual platform were located, as if it was a land of ice and snow.

- This is the method of his mother, Cang Xue!

Suddenly, a ray of starlight protected Wu Wang's strand of divine soul, and he found himself in a warm starry sky.

- His strand of divine soul had entered a hidden place that his mother had not discovered.

At this moment, Wu Wang understood what would happen next.

"Alright."

Star God said softly, turning to look at Wu Wang, then calmly gazing at the Starry Sky Temple.

"I will divert the Ice God's attention. You need to comprehend the Great Dao of the Stars here and let your divine soul become a nail of the Great Dao, firmly embedded in the path of the stars.

I will burn all the power of this remnant soul to dispel the Ice God's suspicion.

Whether you can stop the Ice God and protect the Great Wasteland depends on you, the human race."

Wu Wang sat cross-legged with a solemn expression, and starlight immediately surrounded him.

With a serious look on his face, he looked at Star God and whispered, "Your broad-mindedness truly makes me feel ashamed. Praise be to Star God, may the starlight be with you."

"I accept your prayer."

Star God's mouth curved into a peaceful smile.

She gazed at the Starry Sky Temple, her gaze gradually becoming somewhat distant. The slender figure that resembled a primordial body, with a hint of determination, emitted a faint radiance.

She said, "Let's begin."Wu Wang was about to close his eyes and start cultivating and comprehending when the figure formed by the remnant soul of the Star God was about to leap up.

"Sir!"

Wu Wang suddenly shouted, interrupting the Star God's emotions.

"What's the matter?"

"You said you were going to give me that fast-growing divine technique, but you haven't given it to me yet."

Hmph, mortals.

The Star God, with her back to Wu Wang, showed a hint of disgust in her eyes, but when she turned around, she still had a smile on her face. A faint light appeared at her fingertips and entered Wu Wang's brow.

A complex sacrificial technique appeared in Wu Wang's mind.

The Star God said, "I will go back, and you will become the new god."

After speaking, she exploded into countless rays of light, turning into boundless radiance and rushing towards the Heavenly Palace!

Wu Wang immediately closed his eyes, and multiple insights emerged in his mind. The remnant soul and the "source of divinity" of the Star God resonated, and he delved into the path of the Star God!

The remnant soul of the Star God, in the form of countless flowing lights, was about to hit the Starry Sky Temple.

With a thought, Wu Wang ended his divine journey and rapidly retreated in the starry sky, passing through layers of imprints of the Great Dao, and falling towards his own spiritual platform!

In the Starry Sky Temple.

The gods of the Heavenly Palace, led by Junior Deity of Lifespan, and the spirits controlled by Cang Xue and the Sun Festival, all looked down at the lower left corner of the temple.

Cang Xue and Junior Deity of Lifespan were full of confusion.

Cang Xue had already sensed that the remnant soul of the Star God that had escaped was now releasing most of its power.

It seemed to be released out of thin air, as if it had encountered some kind of crisis.

Junior Deity of Lifespan also sensed this situation, but she didn't know what had happened to the Star God, and she couldn't understand why the Star God would release the power of divinity without any reason.

But Junior Deity of Lifespan had vaguely realized that things were developing towards a situation that the Heavenly Palace could not control.

"Lead the way, I want to see the Star God."

Dang!

The six Sun Festival members, including Cang Xue, held their staffs at the same time, and the staffs fell, making a crisp sound.

"The Star God did not summon you."

"In that case," Junior Deity of Lifespan opened her right hand, and a colorful feather spun gently inside, "I can only offend."

Behind her, fifteen Heavenly Palace gods, the innate gods who were about to make a move.

In the Bear Hug Clan's royal court, in Wu Wang's tent.

Wu Wang's eyelids trembled slightly, but he did not wake up.

A strange green starlight appeared around him, as if it were attached to his back like a ghostly fire.

Inside the spiritual platform where a cluster of fire was missing compared to usual, Wu Wang's Elemental Infant emerged from the door, and the various experiences he had gone through before became somewhat vague.

The restrictions of the Great Dao were lifted.

He was only half a step away from becoming an immortal, just a slight tremor away.

But Wu Wang was not in a hurry. The Elemental Infant sat quietly in the spiritual platforms shining with immortal light, sighing lightly.

"Great Star God, may you be well. Your Moon Festival is here to pray for you and inherit your will to destroy the Ice God's conspiracy."

Suddenly, a slightly playful voice sounded from behind Wu Wang.

"Do you not want me to leave?"

Wu Wang's body tensed up!

His Elemental Infant trembled slightly, and when he turned his head, he saw a corner of his spiritual platform filled with endless starlight.

The silver starlight condensed into a path of light, and the figure of the Star God slowly walked out of it, showing a faint smile to Wu Wang.

In the next moment, the Star God transformed from a primordial serpent into a human with a height of over ten meters, a cold and fierce face, long hair fluttering forward, emitting a faint light, wearing ancient divine armor, and wearing a golden crown.

She said:

"Since you don't want me to leave so much, I will give you this opportunity to merge with me."

Wu Wang's Elemental Infant instantly retreated, his eyes filled with shock.

"Great Star God, you can't be!"

The Star God slowly approached, her beautiful and fierce head slightly raised.

"I am the ruler of the Great Dao, the master of the starry sky. To merge with me is your greatest glory."

Wu Wang suddenly asked, "After the fusion, will you be in control or will my consciousness be in control?"

The Star God seemed amused by Wu Wang's question. She continued to move forward and approached the position where Wu Wang's Elemental Infant was originally meditating.

She said, "Considering your outstanding contribution to completing my path, after I take my place, I will restore your consciousness and reshape your body as my successor.

Now, offer your path and offer your body.

This is your supreme honor, my subjects."

Wu Wang's Elemental Infant continued to shine with divine light, but stared at the Star God intently.

"Great Star God, what if I refuse?"

"Refuse?"

A hint of sharpness flashed in the Star God's eyes. "Since you have deviated from the path of the stars and returned to your original form, you have no other choice."

Wu Wang's mouth twitched.

He said so, and he thought so.

But a wry smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he sighed softly in his spiritual platform.

Starry Sky Temple!

Sixteen Heavenly Palace gods either floated or stepped, surrounding Cang Xue and the six Sun Festival members, and the old spirit.

Cang Xue and the others had no way to retreat, and the power they could display at this moment was completely suppressed by the other side.

Junior Deity of Lifespan's beautiful eyes showed a hint of ruthlessness.

Cang Xue frowned slightly, but at this moment, she sensed a familiar and intimate aura from the body of the Star God.

Ba Er?

The colorful feather in Junior Deity of Lifespan's hand suddenly burst into light!

Cang Xue's lips slightly parted.

Inside Wu Wang's body, in the corner of the spiritual platform filled with starlight, Wu Wang, who was blocked there, also raised his head at the same time.

The mother and son almost shouted at the same time:

"Hold on!"

Junior Deity of Lifespan frowned slightly, but did not launch an attack.

Cang Xue said, "Alright, you can take a look at the Great Star God from a distance."

Several Sun Festival members looked at Cang Xue anxiously, as if questioning why she was giving in.

A play must be played to the end.

In Wu Wang's spiritual platform!

The voice of "hold on" echoed back and forth, and the smile on Wu Wang's mouth made the Star God stop in her tracks.

"Hold on?"

The Star God stared at Wu Wang and said in a calm voice, "Do you have something else to say?""Of course, there is something to say," Wu Wang stared at the Star God and suddenly said, "Lord Star God, do you know the reason behind my understanding of the Great Path of the Stars?"

The Star God smiled and said, "I will know later."

"I suddenly understand," Wu Wang sighed, "You are interested in my understanding of the Great Path of the Stars."

"Not entirely," the Star God said calmly, "The Ice God has indeed pushed me to a dead end. Even if my divine soul returns to my body, it will be shattered by her. She only bears the risk of exposing herself. But this risk is very small for her, because as long as she is willing, she can destroy the seal of heaven and earth through my body and bring back the Candling Dragon."

Wu Wang asked, "Then why didn't she do it before?"

The Star God revealed the truth in one sentence, "She was waiting for the weakening of the Heavenly Palace. Even if the Candling Dragon returns, it will require a heavy price to reclaim the heavens and earth."

Wu Wang asked again, "Can you not sense my body now?"

"You talk too much."

The Star God opened his left hand, which resembled a dragon claw, and said, "Once you return to me, you will understand everything."

Wu Wang:...

What happened to the villain dying from talking too much?

"I know the Ice God!"

Wu Wang suddenly shouted, causing the Star God's actions to pause.

"Oh? So what?" the Star God asked.

"I have one last question," Wu Wang said seriously, "If you can answer this question, even if I die here today and you grind away my will, I will have no regrets. You wouldn't refuse such a humble request, would you?"

"Speak."

"Have you ever considered it?"

Wu Wang's eyes were filled with eagerness as he leaned forward slightly, and he earnestly said, "Change the name of your path to the Path of the Starry Sky. I feel that it is not worthy of being called the Path of the Stars."

The Star God was slightly stunned, but soon became furious!

Wu Wang laughed loudly, and flames ignited in his eyes!

Outside of Wu Wang's body, white flames soared into the sky, shooting out from the open roof of the tent, leaving the guards outside in astonishment.

In Wu Wang's spiritual platform, intricate flame patterns suddenly appeared under the tail of the Star God's snake!

The flames surged and transformed into hundreds of chains, completely enveloping the remaining soul of the Star God!

The Star God's eyes were filled with even greater shock. She suddenly turned her head and looked at the spot where Wu Wang had been meditating, and in her pupils, the rolling multicolored fireballs were reflected!

A quick look at "pawread dot com" will leave you more fulfilled.

After the flames, a faint white flame gently flickered, and within the flame sat the illusion of an old man.

The old man had long disheveled hair, half-opened eyes, and was surrounded by nine azure dragons of fire. In his hand, he held a crimson wooden whip, appearing out of nowhere and floating in the air.

The Emperor of Humanity, Shen Nong!

The multicolored fireball had enveloped the Star God, and before she could even shout, "How dare you, Fire God!" she let out a painful scream.

At this moment, Wu Wang seemed to be under immense pressure. His Elemental Infant tried to hide in the corner, but he continued to speak, provoking the Star God and keeping her angry, preventing her from escaping from his spiritual platform.

"Star God, I am waiting for reinforcements. What are you waiting for?"

The Star God's remaining soul, burned by the flames of the Yan Emperor, turned her head and stared at Wu Wang, continuously roaring in her mouth.

"Your pitiful acting is only missing the words 'possessing' and 'taking over' written on your face. You are too arrogant to even spare a glance at my body. Can't you see? I have your essence and blood in me! Can't you guess where this essence and blood came from?"

"Do you really think it's so easy for me to give away a strand of my divine soul? I just wanted to lure you to my spiritual platform! Since the day you blessed me and killed my grandmother, I have been thinking that one day I must erase you from this world!"

"Praise the Star God! Bullshit! You even want to devour the Great Path of the Moon Festival. Are you worthy of calling yourself the Star God?"

The form of the Star God became extremely ethereal.

She struggled, fear evident in her eyes, as waves of divine thoughts forcefully broke out of the flames, attacking Wu Wang's spiritual platform.

But Wu Wang gritted his teeth and resisted, mobilizing all his divine thoughts to form a prison.

I forbid the gods from entering my body!

In Wu Wang's spiritual platform, his Elemental Infant raised his left hand, and a ball of flames surged from his palm.

The flames of the Yan Emperor broke through the remaining outline of the Star God.

Seeing this, Shen Nong immediately wanted to stop the burning to avoid causing serious damage to Wu Wang himself, but Wu Wang gritted his teeth and said, "Senior, burn a little longer!"

"What?"

Wu Wang gritted his teeth and said, "I can endure it. I can't let the Star God escape! My mother is currently facing the gods of the Heavenly Palace! If the Star God escapes with a strand of divine thought, my mother will be in danger!"

"Very well."

Shen Nong hesitated for a moment, and the flames became even more intense, almost burning through Wu Wang's spiritual platform.

After a while...

"Again!"

"Do not harm the origin..."

"Senior, burn!"

"You... fine, fine."

The multicolored flames continued, but the remaining soul of the Star God had completely lost its outline.

Finally, after a moment.

Wu Wang lowered his head in the tent and spat out a mouthful of blood. His clothes were all burned, and he weakly lay down on the bed, but a faint smile appeared on his lips.

He did it.

When the Star God tried to possess him and laughed triumphantly, Wu Wang had already understood her intentions.

The Star God, who had been forced into a desperate situation by his mother, wanted to possess his body and take over his Great Path, perfecting her own Great Path of the Stars with the understanding he had gained.

Killing three birds with one stone, what could be better?

But the Star God, whether it was because she had been sleeping for too long or because she was too arrogant at heart, did not take the threat of living beings seriously.

She drew an enticing picture out of thin air, hoping to lure Wu Wang into her trap.

However, she never expected that a living being who cultivated the Great Path of the Stars and had such profound insights into the Great Path of the Stars would also possess another power within him.

The Yan Emperor's command became Wu Wang's trump card against her.

Shen Nong personally descended upon Wu Wang's spiritual platform, showcasing the tacit understanding between the grandfather, father-in-law, and son-in-law.

Grandmother...Wu Wang felt dizzy, on the verge of passing out.

Shen Nong gently advised him a few words, then retreated from his spiritual platform. The Yan Emperor's command emitted a gentle light, nourishing Wu Wang's soul.

Suddenly, Wu Wang seemed to see his grandmother holding a cane, chasing him around by the river.

He also seemed to see an old man, shouting out his frustration towards the Star God while facing a blessed beast.

He saw her sitting quietly on the grass, leaning on her cane, gradually falling asleep...

Suddenly, such images emerged from the bottom of Wu Wang's heart.

From a deep and unique perspective, he sensed more than a dozen paths rapidly approaching.

Wu Wang was stunned for a moment, bit his tongue hard, and his already languishing Elemental Infant opened its eyes again.

This is...

His strand of soul seemed to have merged with the body of the Star God. He could faintly sense that his mother and the other Sun Festival participants were slowly approaching the Star God, surrounded by sixteen deities.

"Star God!"

Junior Deity of Lifespan?

Yes, it was Junior Deity of Lifespan calling out. She seemed to be about to do something.

What to do?

Wu Wang's thoughts raced, quickly understanding several key points and realizing his mother's current predicament.

Focusing his mind, perceiving, the door of the path appeared again. Without any hesitation, Wu Wang's soul stepped into it.

Retracing the path of the stars!

At this moment, the path of the stars was completely open to him, without any obstacles or barriers, as if pushing him to ascend, to advance, to enter the dazzling stars, to break through the endless void.

The body of the Star God flashed through Wu Wang's heart, and he faintly felt as if he had changed bodies.

But this body was incredibly heavy, incredibly solemn. The overwhelming sense of fatigue swept over him, and countless fragments of memory surged towards Wu Wang's mind, almost causing his Elemental Infant to explode!

He forcefully resisted, his strand of soul merging with the surrounding starlight, illuminating the Star God's divine mansion under the obstruction of several layers of ice crystals.

Cang Xue seemed to sense something and looked up at the body of the Star God.

Junior Deity of Lifespan leaped up, floating in front of the Star God's eyes, her gentle voice echoing through the path:

"Is the Star God alright?"

The Star God's eyes were slowly opening!

In the royal court, inside Wu Wang's tent, Wu Wang was bleeding from his seven orifices, but he still gritted his teeth and held on.

The next moment.

Junior Deity of Lifespan felt a chill run through her body, because the Star God's half-open eyes were filled with raging anger!

And then, the Star God's reprimand made her fall instantly, without any hesitation, she and the other fifteen innate gods bowed in unison, turning into a stream of light and disappearing into the starry sky.

It was as if all the stars were trembling, as if the starry sky was growling!

"Scram."

Inside the tent, Wu Wang slowly closed his eyes, unable to hold on any longer, with fresh blood constantly flowing from the corner of his mouth.

In the starry sky, Cang Xue clenched her staff, her figure flickered and disappeared, appearing around Wu Wang, her finger pointing between Wu Wang's eyebrows.

"Ba'er."

"Heh..."

Wu Wang forced a smile, his body slumped to the side, and he fell silent.
