Chapter 915: More Stars.
When Loki looked up, he saw six stars in the sky. He knew that one of the stars was supposed to be the phantom of the core of the world. As for the other five, he had never seen them before.At least, he thought he had never seen the five extra stars before. But when he saw that one of the stars was made of machine parts joined in holy harmony and working in pristine synchrony with one another to create a perfect symphony of metal, he remembered that he had seen this star before.
In order to confirm his suspicions, he used the Power Identification Ability on the star made out of machinery.
Rank: 9
Supreme Metac: Forging.
When he saw this, he knew that he had remembered correctly. The Power Identification Ability also showed that the other four stars were Supreme Metacs of various kinds.
The five stars in the sky had different colors. black, golden, white, silver, and translucent like glass. They were all producing light that baptized the world beneath them. However, unlike the normal sun, the light they were producing was toxic to the world.
The most obvious negative impact of the light of the sun was the suppression of the mortals and divine beings. Wherever the light of the stars reached, every pathway that didn’t belong to the star was suppressed.
So everyone who was using Metacs from pathways other than the Forging Pathway was suppressed under the light of the Forging Supreme Metac. This suppression reduced the power of the Divine Metacs for divine beings, but the suppression was worse for mortals.
For mortals, their Core Metacs and Branch Metacs stopped working completely. Because of this, many mortals, whose lives had already been joined with their Core Metacs, began to die.
Cultivators with a Life Ability from rank 3 to rank 5 had their lives put at risk because of the appearance of the stars. Rank 5 cultivators could still resist somewhat, but rank 4 and rank 3 cultivators couldn’t resist. Because of this, rank 3 and rank 4 cultivators began to die in droves.
As people fell down dead for apparently no reason, the mortals scrambled to hide away from the light of the sun. Unfortunately for them, there was no way for them to hide.
The light of the five stars could pass through solid opaque obstacles like walls and soil. So those who hid in basements and cellars could still see the five stars and had to suffer the consequences.
Even burying themselves in the ground didn’t help them escape from the light of damnation. As long as someone was a mortal in the range of rank 3 and rank 5 in the Central Domain, they were at risk of dying.
The only place that could block the light of the unnatural stars was the world barrier. But the world barrier wasn’t a place suitable for living either.
And the appearance of the unnatural stars didn’t happen only in the Central Domain. In the Northern Domain, one star appeared. The light of this star was ever-changing. Because of the appearance of this star, every giant in the Strength Pathway in the Northern Domain was suppressed.
