Douluo Continent: Starting from Leading Ferocious Beasts to Transform into Demons

Chapter 8 The Power of the Sun

"I've absorbed most of the spiritual energy of the Starry Sky Forest just now, and it might not be enough for them when they condense their cores. Now I'll set up a small formation to draw on the power of the stars, which will make it easier for them to condense their cores."

"Those who cannot absorb the power of stars cannot be considered true high-level demons."

Lu Wu's face showed a hint of disdain.

This was indeed the case in the prehistoric world. At that time, the human race was not very strong. Although some demons discovered that devouring humans could increase their cultivation, those were things that only lower-level demons would do.

Because of the existence of the Zhou Tian Star Array, the true high-level demon race relies entirely on the power of stars and rare and precious materials for cultivation, and it is not worth offending Nuwa for the sake of increasing their cultivation by a little bit.

Even the Demon-Slaying Sword, which was originally forged to break the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation by slaughtering humans, was not made. After Lu Wu persuaded the Wu Clan that they might have also forged a Demon-Slaying Sword based on their actions, Di Jun finally gave up the idea. After all, he was just gambling that Nuwa did not value the human race.

"The power of stars?"

Gu Yuena's small mouth was slightly open, and her exquisite tail swayed behind her. She hadn't expected that she could cultivate using the power of stars.

Looking up at the blazing sun overhead, Gu Yuena swallowed hard. The power of the sun... Di Tian and the others should be able to withstand it, right?

"Alright, all done."

Lu Wu looked with satisfaction at the stone he had casually picked up from the shore, which was covered with various crooked runes. This was a super simplified version of the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Array, or even a small array that could only be used to draw on the power of the stars, barely enough for temporary use.

To truly set up the Great Zhou Tian Star Array, it is necessary to forge 365 Great Zhou Tian Star Banners, corresponding to the 365 main stars in the sky; at the same time, it is also necessary to have 14,800 Small Zhou Tian Star Banners, corresponding to the 14,800 secondary stars.

The Sun and Moon are the main stars of the formation, with the Twenty-Eight Mansions as auxiliary stars, together forming the core of the formation.

In addition to the Star Banner, it also needs the power of billions of demon gods, each representing a star, to form the incomparably powerful Zhou Tian Star Array.

That kind of scene was truly earth-shattering and magnificent.

Lu Wu threw the array stone in his hand into the sky, and the array stone began to take effect as Lu Wu channeled his power into it.

An invisible wave spread out in all directions, defining a region that was neither too big nor too small.

Gu Yuena looked at the array stones that remained unresponsive and was puzzled, wondering if something had gone wrong.

But the next second, Gu Yuena's eyes widened.

A point of light suddenly appeared in the clear blue sky. The point of light then gradually expanded, emitting a dazzling light that was even somewhat blinding.

As the light drew closer, Gu Yuena recognized it: it was the boundless power of the sun, cascading down like a waterfall, as if a sharp sword had pierced through the clouds and torn through the sky, radiating endless light and heat.

The golden-red power of the sun was absorbed and transformed by the invisible field. The originally grayish-brown stone seemed unable to withstand so much power and began to emit a dazzling red light.

Gu Yuena stared in astonishment at the scene before her, feeling the terrifying power contained within it. She marveled at Lu Wu's strength; he had only casually produced a stone, yet it had caused such a commotion.

Immediately, a hidden fiery light appeared in Gu Yuena's eyes. Although her bloodline level had reached the level of the Dragon God due to her transformation and re-cultivation, her power still needed to be cultivated again. The cultivation method that Lu Wu gave her also included a part that used the power of stars to temper her body.

"Let's wait until they transform into demons, then this stone will be yours to manage."

Lu Wu saw through Gu Yuena's thoughts, but he didn't care. He could easily make such stones, but what he had now was enough. They had just transformed into demons and couldn't absorb that much star power, especially the violent power of the sun.

"Thanks."

Gu Yuena's little tail swayed in the air. The emptiness of having no power made her somewhat uneasy. Now, she naturally pursued power very much, and she was very grateful for Lu Wu's tacit approval.

······

"This is!!!"

The Demon King groaned as he looked at the towering tree before him, the oppressive aura of his bloodline level rendering him almost speechless.

The tree has leaves like mustard seeds and a body like fire. It can grow up to two thousand feet long and more than two thousand feet in circumference. The two branches support each other and grow together, just like the Fusang tree in Lu Wu's memory.

As an innate fire-based spiritual root and the birthplace of Di Jun and Tai Yi, the Fusang Tree ranks among the top spiritual roots in the primordial world in terms of its status and origin. Naturally, the Demon King could only exclaim "Aba aba" in shock.

Endless fire spirits frolic and play on the Fusang tree, while also maintaining and caring for it, making it shine even more brightly.

"Is this what Commander Lu expects of me?"

The Demon King stared blankly at the radiant Fusang tree, then his eyes blazed with boundless fighting spirit.

He was originally an ordinary demonic tree in the Star Dou Great Forest, but an immortal herb unexpectedly grew beside him. Normally, the immortal herb should have absorbed all the nutrients, causing him to die. However, the Demon King, with his own tenacity and ambition, endured the pain of devouring the immortal herb and became the king of plant-type soul beasts today.

Although I knew before that I still had room to grow, the power of the ferocious beast level increased too slowly, as if some rule was restricting the growth of the soul beast, and I could only rely on time to endure it.

However, most of those rare and precious materials were of little use to him, and the few that were useful were offered to the lord. In fact, the Demon King had been rather idle before.

However, a new path to heaven has been laid out before the Demon King, who also longs to make progress.

The image of the Fusang tree was reflected in the eyes of the Demon King, as if flames were burning within it.

In another sea of ​​spirit.

The three-eyed golden lion stared blankly at the long, golden dragon before it, whose length was unknown.

"You and the Lord later resembled each other, one big and one small, one gold and one silver."

As an imperial auspicious beast that possesses intelligence no less than that of humans, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion naturally understood the content of Lu Wu and the other beasts' conversation. However, her more than 10,000 years of forest life had made her simple and honest, and she did not think too much about it.

The five-clawed golden dragon ignored the three-eyed golden lion, only exuding a terrifying dragon might, its gaze fixed on the distance, its muscles slightly tense, before soaring straight into the sky, dancing in the heavens.

······

The ferocious beasts saw their future paths in the sea of ​​spirits, some confused, some filled with excitement.

An indescribable feeling emanated from the ferocious beasts.

Di Tian was the first to open his eyes. The flow of time in the sea of ​​consciousness was different from that in reality. Although he was a guard of the Dragon God before he started his cultivation and was very knowledgeable, he still had to be taught by Lu Wu for several years in the sea of ​​consciousness before he finally comprehended it.

Upon seeing the snow-white little beast not far away, Di Tian's eyes instinctively showed fear, and his body couldn't help but tremble. This was a lingering effect of being struck by lightning too many times during his training.

The ferocious beasts also woke up one after another. After shivering, they felt the power gathering above their heads, and their eyes burst forth with an indescribable light.

The main theme of this novel is definitely the demon race defeating the human race. If you don't like this, please move on to other novels. There's no need to leave a bad review before leaving, thank you. The protagonist was human in his previous life, with only twenty years of memories. In his previous life, he was a member of the demon race and lived among them for countless years. With Taiyi protecting him, he lived a very comfortable life and naturally leaned towards the demon race. He also tried his best to prevent harm to the human race. Later, he drifted in the chaos for countless years. Originally, his human memories were just a drop in the ocean. Protecting the human race in the primordial world was a setting by the author that showed he still had some humanity left. Logically speaking, he should have just treated the human race as food. This novel doesn't go so far as to let the demon race devour the human race. Be careful of censorship warnings. But the demon race is also a branch of the demon race, right? ヾ(ヮ)」 Isn't it normal for there to be traitors among the human race?
