Pavo Constellation.
Lang Yu watched in shock at the Golden Peac.o.c.k Feather placed near him.
The dazzling golden Peac.o.c.k Feather, was Pavo Constellations Saint Treasure, [Peac.o.c.k’s Feather]! Lang Yu was the undisputed number one of Pavo Constellation, and held the Peac.o.c.k’s Feather for 15 years.
Relying on this gold ranked saint treasure, he ruled Pavo Constellation.
In the Southern Sky’s 42 constellations, Pavo Constellation was a middle tier power, but it was special. Of the star treasures related to Pavo Constellation, it held the highest number of armors in the Southern Sky’s 42 constellations. Because of that, Pavo Constellation held a number of powerful and robust martial artists.
But….
His gaze was filled with shock, because on the golden peac.o.c.k feather, it was filled with countless minute cracks.
Any saint treasure of the constellation possessed a direct relationship in terms of prosperity and decline, weak or strong. If the saint treasure’s power is stable, it meant that the power of the constellation was stable.
15 years of tempering, the golden peac.o.c.k feather and Lang Yu’s relationship was extremely close. He could clearly feel the power of the peac.o.c.k feather, had been substantially weakened!
What exactly was happening?
Lang Yu’s mind was filled with fear, he extended his trembling hands, and when his hand touched the peac.o.c.k feather, pa, a piece of golden fragment, dropped from Peac.o.c.k’s feather.
The fear in Lang Yu’s mind grew even heavier, Peac.o.c.k Feather was actually already on the verge of crumbling….
When his mind connected to Pavo Constellation through the Peac.o.c.k Feather, the blood in his face immediately disappeared making him as white as paper, he dropped his b.u.t.t on the floor, fear creeping into his eyes.
It was night, and the 11 stars of Pavo Constellation were in a huge mess.
All the star treasures of Pavo constellation had a substantial weakening in their powers. Some of them had dropped by 25%, most of them by half.
The big Pavo constellation sunk into unprecedented fear, as everyone immediately thought of the sudden collapse of Immortal Constellation many years ago, until today they had not recovered their strength.
The martial artists of Pavo Constellation were frantically trying to source out the reason. But when they did, everyone had their faces in ashes.
For some unknown reason, Pavo Constellations power had suddenly dropped by 25%!
A Constellation that suddenly had a huge decline in power was never heard of before.
Fear spread throughout the entire Pavo Constellation.
In the desert.
Ling Xu who had just awoken was filled with regret and guilt, “Crazy Tang, I am so sorry about going crazy earlier. Are you ok?”
Especially seeing Tang Tian’s red blue eyes, the guilt in his heart became even heavier.
“No matter no matter!” Tang Tian exposed an extremely bright smile, and spoke loudly, “Everyone of us has something that we care about, but we are not living alone. You have us! Any hatred of yours, we will help you seek vengeance together, whatever wishes you have, everyone will do it together. All of our strength added together is definitely stronger than one person! Little Crane, am I right? Us brothers should have one heart, to make a lot of money!”
Although the word “Little Crane” Made the veins on Crane’s forehead twitch, “Yes, we brothers should be together, that benefits all of us.”
He turned, his expression becoming serious, “Ling Xu, whenever you need our help, please don’t be afraid to ask.”
Seeing Tang Tian’s simple-minded look and Crane’s serious look, Ling Xu bit his lips, but did not say anything.
After being quiet for a while, Ling Xu asked, “What happened to your eyes?”
Tang Tian’s left eyes was now a dim blue, while his right eye was a dim fire red color.
Tang Tian did not try to hide it, and told them everything that happened once, and even he himself could not make sense of the matter. Out of the three, Crane was the smartest and used his brains the most. So Tang Tian always kept asking him.
Crane’s expression congealed, “It seems to me to be some blood meridians awakening.”
“Blood meridians awakening?” Bing’s voice sounded came out, he had also rushed over.
“Yes.” Crane said, “Crazy Tang’s surging power, came out from within his body, and is most probably his blood meridians. The stronger the blood meridian, the more acc.u.mulated power there will be, and the stronger it is. But this power, is like a slumbering volcano, and only certain factors can awaken them. It is different from the past now, the other blood meridians are all usually activated under harsh circ.u.mstances.”
“Why is that?” Tang Tian’s eyes opened, he did not understand.
“Onyx Soul has a long history regarding the use of blood meridians, so all the easily awakened blood meridians have become their main targets of hunts. For those naturally strong fighting blood meridians, most of them are already severed.” Crane sighed, “There is nothing that can stop a person’s desire, only the person himself can do it.”
Tang Tian and Ling Xu were completely dumbfounded listening to him.
“So in their eyes, humans and star spirit beasts are no different?” Ling Xu could not believe it.
“In truth, they aren’t. Crane shook his head, “ The current Onyx Soul has genuinely top notch blood meridians, all of them practically come from ancient fighting blood meridians. After repeated breeding and purifying, they became even stronger. Their understanding on blood meridians far exceeds our imagination. They have two ways of breeding the blood meridians, to purify higher grade blood meridians. The new blood meridians, will forever be on their target list. This matter, can definitely not get leaked out.”
Crane glanced at Huo Ma Er.
Huo Ma Er’s face changed, and she immediately raised her hands, swearing a poisonous oath, “If I ever leak even a word of this, I, Huo Ma Er, will die and my spirit perish.”
She just wanted to hug those golden thighs.
(TN: golden thighs are like golden eggs. She sees them as money and support)
“So I have some sort of blood meridians?” Tang Tian’s face changed.
He suddenly thought of his past, his mother looked weak and feeble, one look and anyone could tell she was an ordinary person.
But that a.s.shole who threw his wife away….
The Southern Cross Constellation Bronze Plate was gifted to his mother by him….
Unless he really was some big shot?
Tang Tian’s gaze became determined, even if that a.s.shole was the world’s strongest and most powerful person, I will still beat him up, and pull him to mother’s grave to repent!
Tang Tian suddenly said, “Is there any way to find out about my blood meridians?”
If he was able to find out about his own blood meridians, then he would have found leads on that a.s.shole!
Crane shook his head, ”If you want to identify your blood meridians, only Onyx Soul is proficient in it. But I do not suggest that, as it is too dangerous. If, I am saying if, the blood meridians of your body are extremely strong, you will become like a lamb and get chopped up. The strong martial artists of Onyx Soul are not people we can fight for now.”
Seeing Tang Tian’s determined look, Crane knew he was warning him for nothing, but thinking about it, he was relieved. If it was him who was calm, if there were leads about his history, no matter how dangerous it was, he would not give up on it.
He suddenly added on, “If you truly want to find out about it, find Bell, she is an Onyx Soul Horse, and is the most proficient in intelligence, and has many social connections. Maybe she has a way.”
Tang Tian noted it in his heart.
Crane carried on, “Regarding your eye, I have some guesses about your left one.”
Tang Tian’s eyes lit up, “Quickly say, quickly tell me.”
“Your left eye, obviously had absorbed Pavo Constellation’s power. I remember, that Pavo Constellation has a martial technique related to the eyes, called [King Peac.o.c.k Eyes], and it can see through all the weaknesses and loopholes of ten thousand worlds’ techniques.” Crane spoke frankly, he was displaying with great saturation on his knowledge and vast wisdom, along with his warm and handsome face, Huo Ma Er watched him in infatuation.
“Of course, to see through ten thousand world’s techniques, is highly doubtful. But it fits with Crazy Tang’s description of his eyes’ usage, this martial technique is extremely low profiled, and very few people know of it, much less have actually trained it.” Crane explained, “Constellation martial techniques are related to their treasures, and in truth, is a display of the constellation’s power. But, to be able to a.s.similate the martial technique into your eye, I am very curious, how much of Pavo Constellation’s power you absorbed.”
“Shouldn’t be much.” Tang Tian rubbed his forehead with a face of innocence, “It was so short.”
“I don’t think so.” Crane confidently said: “King Peac.o.c.k Eye is a rank eight martial technique, and your True Power is only at rank six, you definitely cannot use it. And what’s more is that it needed to solidify inside your eye. That is like the Constellation used its power, to transform your eye into a Pavo Star treasure, the consumption of the Constellatio’s power, I am unable to imagine it.”
“Now that you said it, the beam of light seemed like it wanted to escape, but did not succeed,” Tang Tian frowned and thought.
Crane’s mind suddenly shook, “ You said previously, there was a blue mist, that came out from the red power, and after that it mixed into Peac.o.c.k’s True Power?”
“Yep!” Tang Tian nodded, “I remember that clearly.”
“Crazy Tang, I think you need to go find out more about your blood meridians.” Crane’s face was serious, “Blue Peac.o.c.k is powerful, but after all it is only a silver armor. Compared to the other Pavo treasures, it should only be in the mid range. For it to summon Pavo Constellations power after combusting its martial spirit is one thing, but for the power it received to far exceed Blue Peac.o.c.k’s level, it most certainly cannot withstand the power. Also, according to norms, after combusting, it should have completely disappeared, but it still exists, that isn’t normal too.”
Tang Tian nodded, after listening to Crane’s share, he felt it was very reasonable.
He had another question, “Then how do I use this fire eye?”
Crane thought for a while, “You said that your eye now has fiery red threads floating in the sky?”
“That’s right!” Tang Tian was excited, he covered his left eye, and the fiery red world from his right eye became more obvious, “Now there are much less than before, one thread and another, floating in the sky, but people are dark in color.”
“People are dark?” Crane exposed a surprised look, suddenly he had an idea, and his hand suddenly had a star rock, which he broke, “What about now?”
“Wa, so many fiery threads!” Tang Tian was surprised.
Crane understood, “So those fiery threads are energy floating in the air?”
Tang Tian immediately said, “Using this eye makes me want to fight!”
“It affects the state of mind?” Crane shook his head, “Use some True Power and test it out.”
Tang Tian activated his True Power, and the world before him instantly became even more red. A berserk mood mode akin to a wild beast flooded his mind, causing him to be surprised, as he immediately stopped using True Power.
The spectators were all shocked, in that moment that Tang Tian activated his True Power, it felt like they were facing a wild, fierce beast.
Crane’s face congealed, “Crazy Tang, for the time being don’t use your right eye, let us find out more about your blood meridians.”
Tang Tian immediately nodded, even he did not like that berserk like state of mind.
Just at this time, Ling Xu suddenly spoke, “Crane.”
“Hmm?” Crane looked at Ling Xu in surprise.
Ling Xu hesitated for a while, “Just now during the fight, I heard some song.”
Crane’s facial expression froze, and immediately became serious, “What song?”
Ling Xu pondered about it, then slowly repeated the lyrics, “Silver spears dyed snow, forever not contaminated. Sheep Horn Wind Bells, the cool breeze does not capture your sound. Sun shines but no shadows, for the spear is too straight. Overwhelming my heart, stars guard my soul. Aries Constellation, champion of the spears.”
Crane’s face became distorted!
