Chapter 441 – Big Dipper
Translated by: Berrrybunz

The light pillar that shot out from the palace suddenly collapsed and retracted, converging into a little dazzling gold light that floated above Tang Tian"s head. Only Crane and Ling Xu who were nearby were able to see clearly that the gold light was a piece of golden bone.
The Desolate Bear Bone.
The surging and boundless star power came from the Desolate Bear Bone, lingering and not dissipating.
In the blue sky above the dimming Ursa Major Constellation, a planet behind suddenly burst out with a light aura, following that, the neighbouring planet also lit up, one after another, the planets behind all started to light up. Seven planets, formed a bright scoop shape. The intense star power surged out from the seven planets, the scoop started to move slowly, and an astonishing change started to occur on Ursa Major Constellation. The positions of the various planets started to move.
In the past, the 18 planets of Ursa Major Constellation formed the shape of a bear half squatting, and currently, the planets that formed the head of the bear started to move, seemingly as though the bear had started to stand.
The changes in star power, the planets, all these rarely seen occurrence, caused everyone to become stunned.
In the moment that the constellation stopped changing, the congealed star power suddenly seemed to thaw, and it became extremely active. The energy in the air, compared to previous, although it became much thinner, it was instead filled with life.
Crane" showed a face of disbelief: "This…..this is Ursa Major Constellation accepting a new saint treasure! Crazy Tang was successful…."
A matter such as the constellation changing it"s star treasure, has happened before in the history of Heaven"s Road. But, for Crane to be personally witnessing it, it still made him surprised.
Especially, Crazy Tang had gained the recognition of Ursa Major Constellation….
For such a preposterous thing to actually happen, the future Ursa Major Constellation would most likely be hailed as "Crazy Bear"…..crazy bear martial artists……that was a truly a terrifying name!
Ling Xu unconsciously held the silver spear in his hands extremely tightly, all the movements of the constellation and star power, the vast and boundless astonishing scene, made every person feel insignificant.
Bing raised his head, his poker face froze, his gaze staring intently at the seven most dazzling planets of Ursa Major Constellation.
"That is…."
The current Heaven"s Road was already a different place to him from his past, Ursa Major Constellation could only be ranked in the third tier in Heaven"s Road, but when he saw them for the first time, he was shocked. Because in his generation, Ursa Major Constellation had always been one of the conventional tyrants, even the Southern Cross Army was afraid of them. But currently, they were a constellation that had fallen to the third tier, how could he not sigh emotionally?
Maybe in other people"s eyes, the Ursa Major Constellation in Yan Yong Lie"s generation was already considered powerful, but they truly did not know about the power of Ursa Major Constellation in the past. Even the citizens of Ursa Major Constellation had long forgotten about their past glories, which was to them, too far to remember.
Any tyrant needed to have a powerful foundation. For example, the current Aries Constellation had declined in power, but a thin and dying camel would always be bigger than a horse. For Ursa Major Constellation to be able to be perched high in the past, they naturally had the strong foundation, and that was the dazzling seven stars in the sky.
They used to have another name, a name that was long forgotten by the people, Big Dipper!
The Big Dipper Seven Stars!
The decline of Ursa Major Constellation was directly related to the dimming of the Big Dipper Seven Stars. Ursa Major Constellation"s apex inheritance, [Ursa Major Stars Umbrella] was a martial technique developed from the growth and evolution of the Big Dipper Seven Stars, but no one expected the [Ursa Major Stars Umbrella] to be lost so quickly, resulting it to change into the weaker [Big Dipper], but no one expected that even [Big Dipper] would be lost.
The response of the martial artists who lost their top grade martial technique, was that the Big Dipper Seven Stars finally dimmed and went to sleep, and that was the reason for the decline of Ursa Major Constellation.
For Tang Tian to be able to sort out Ursa Major Constellation"s star power, to rea.s.sign the saint treasure, did not surprise Bing. Tang Tian held ⅓ of the star power of the constellation in his body, that gave him equal footing with Yan Yong Lie. And he also knew, the Constellations also had a self-preservation instinct, combustion was basically a self destruction move, something that the constellation was not aware of, but for everything in the world, they would naturally resist self destruction.
Crazy Tang"s bursting self confidence, number one hara.s.sing quality, forever unfathomable potential, and against Yan Yong Lie, whom Bing did not even see him as a good Bear King, furthermore they were currently under the situation where the martial spirit was combusting.
But, the awakening of the Big Dipper Seven Stars…..
Bing was stunned by that, there was no reason for that, Crazy Tang did not even have a star coin relation with the Big Dipper, how could he cause it to awaken?
Could it be… the Desolate Bear Bone?
When that thought came up, Bing"s eyes immediately lit up.
He closed his eyes, carefully experiencing the pervading undulation in the air, after awhile, he finally had some realization, it was truly the Desolate Bear Bone!
There was a faint and hidden relationship between the Desolate Bear Bone and Big Dipper.
Bing immediately became excited.
Big Dipper was the true reason for Ursa Major Constellations strength, The Ursa Major Constellation with the awakened Big Dipper would quickly gain it"s old power. What made him even more excited, was that he suspected, there was a possibility that the Desolate Bear Bone had the true inheritance [Ursa Major Stars Umbrella] sealed inside of it!
In the past, martial techniques that were brazenly given the name [Stars], were all extremely powerful martial techniques. Take for example the [Aries Spear of Stars] of Aries Constellation, it was also the apex grade inheritance.
Furthermore, even if it was not the [Ursa Major Stars Umbrella], [Big Dipper] was also powerful!
Unexpected joy, it truly was unexpected joy. Bing instantly could not wait to pull Crazy Tang over and study the piece of golden bone carefully.
But Bing quickly calmed down, as an instructor, his strategy and foresight far surpa.s.sed other people. For the Big Dipper Seven Stars to be awakened, it naturally was an extremely good thing, but it would definitely cause a series of chain reactions.
He was definitely not the only one who knew about the Big Dipper Seven Stars. For people who studied a little on the history of Ursa Major Constellation would definitely be able to know that Ursa Major Constellation would quickly enter a high speed growth. A completely grown Ursa Major Constellations energy purity would definitely reach an even higher level.
Ursa Major Constellation immediately became very appetizing.
Just that in this period of time, there will be people who would quickly reveal their claws and teeth.
With Ursa Major Constellation in his hands, Draco Constellation counted for nothing. Bing immediately decided to forget about attacking Draco Constellation. But, although he did not plan to attack Draco Constellation, he did not plan to forgive them.
A war that was won need not pay any price.
Bing looked at Tang Tian who had not opened his eyes, his heart br.i.m.m.i.n.g with emotions, to be in such a good situation, how could we lose!
"Everyone pay attention, the target is Draco Constellation, advance with haste!"
The amateur student army and Tang Yi"s Lupus Army, turned around efficiently, headed towards Draco Constellation with a storm.
Crane and Ling Xu were surprised by the Army"s movements.
"Eh, where are they going?" Ling Xu was taken aback.
Crane seemed to know, and exposed a harmless smile: "Such a good opportunity, Uncle Bing will not let it go, speaking of which, over this period of time, I seem to be agreeing with him a lot."
Ling Xu"s face was confused, he did not understand, but Crane did not bother explaining further, and laughed: "We can just focus on protecting Crazy Tang."
"It"ll be best if a powerful person comes!" Ling Xu snorted, then sat down crossed legged, the silver spear placed horizontally on his legs, closed his eyes and meditated.
Tang Tian and the star power of the constellation, such a situation, had long roused Ling Xu"s fighting intent, he badly wanted to find someone to fight and kill.
That is what is meant to be a manly man!
The restless feeling continued to turn in his chest, he could not calm down, he simply ignored it, the Sheep Horn Wind Bells seemed to be able to sense his fighting intent, ringing out loud, the battle song of the Silver Frost Mount continued to ring in his mind.
Silver spear should be as soft as snow, and be as pure as the clouds. Sheep Horn Wind Bells, the cool breeze will never capture your sound. The Sun shines but no shadows can be overcast, for the spear will always be too straight….."
It was as though he could hear the tiding sounds of hooves, as though he could hear the melodious jingles, as though he could hear countless people softly singing along. The song was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with confidence, and he could hear the pride from the soft singing.
For some reason, Ling Xu could feel himself calming down.
The pain from the silver transformation, in that moment, seemed to have disappeared. He quietly listened to the song, as though he was listening to proud veterans speaking about their glorious achievements.
Although your beliefs and your way of thinking is different from me. I revere you all, respect you all, but I will not walk your road.
This inheritance has somehow landed on me, I will carry it and walk forward, a road different from all of you, although it is bigotry, although it is crazy, but that is the road of me, Ling Xu.
But, please believe in me, no matter what, I will definitely not disgrace it.
Because, I will definitely be stronger than all of you!
The silver spear seemed to be able to listen to the thoughts of Ling Xu, the song in his ear, started to grow from a downcast to a worked up song, countless silver figures, rushing forth from his left to his right, the silver spears flying all around in a bitter fight.
Silver Frost Mounts…
Ling Xu knew it was a hallucination, but the hallucination in front of him seemed extremely lifelike, every figure seemed to be all real. But when Ling Xu looked closely, he was stunned.
Aries Spear of Stars, an entirely different Aries Spear of Stars!
Are you all displaying it for me to see….
Crane noticed Ling Xu"s difference, surprise surfacing on his face, which quickly changed to helplessness. Definitely, they were all not ordinary people. To gain enlightenment while guarding….how much of being teammates can you guys get?
Crane quietly jumped to a further place, afraid that he would disturb Ling Xu.
Luckily, no one dared to come close, because the Desolate Bear Bone floating above Tang Tian"s head was releasing a ripple only saint treasures would release. Even with Ursa Major Constellations severe plight, being greatly wounded, but Tang Tian who was holding the saint treasure, was definitely not someone any ordinary martial artist could disturb.
Although Angelina was holding onto the Fairy Hoop, her personal strength was limited, so the power released by Fairy Hoop was not even a tenth of its potential. But Tang Tian"s personal strength was extremely tyrannical, with the saint treasure, that was reasonably terrifying.
The light pillar disappeared. In front of Tang Tian, a vague martial spirit floated. Above its head, floated a dim Bear Headed Crown. That was the previous Saint Treasure, Head of the King Bear.
For the combustion to be forced to stop, Yan Yong Lie"s martial spirit also awakened.
Ah, I lost…. sorry….
I am unable to support you all till victory…..you must all be fighting still…..now that I am dead, all your lives will lost.
I truly am sorry.
Not for losing.
But for being unable to carry the burden of losing and humiliation with all of you.
A gust of wind blew over, the vague martial spirit and the dimmed Head of the King Bear, became fine ashes, disappearing into the sky, disappearing without a trace.

Tang Tian opened his eyes in a daze, looking around, he "eh", a look of confusion: "It"s over?"
Crane who had his eyes closed while meditating, felt helpless, as expected of the unreliable guy, but he still replied gently: "If you are done, then it is over."
"Me?" Tang Tian was confused by Crane"s words, but after a while he understood, and then, the golden bone dropped in front of him, and he extended his hand out and took it.
Desolate Bear Bone.
An indescribable ripple flowed from the Desolate Bear Bone into his hand, causing him to feel an indescribable familiar feeling.
This bone, didn"t it break?
Tang Tian could not remember, what exactly happened, to merge with the combusting star power, his entire being felt as if he entered a furnace, causing him to be in a muddleheaded state the entire time.
The star power in his body was still surging, but it was not as ruthless as before, as though it was tamed.
Tang Tian calmed down, he was not injured, everyone was fine, the light pillar was gone, Ursa Major Constellation had returned to normal, from the looks of it, he had obviously won.
As long as we won.
After coming to that verdict, he immediately smiled. Suddenly, his eyes turned to Ling Xu, and "eh" gently: "Ling Xu is being enlightened ah."
"Yes, I reckon he is waking up soon." Crane answered, he raised his head to look at the sky above Ursa Major Constellation, which was gradually being covered. The light of the Big Dipper Seven Stars, was much brighter than the other planets.
Big Dipper Seven Stars, the Big Dipper Seven Stars that had been slumbering for so long have been awakened….that is exciting….
But Crane"s focus gradually went lax. With Tang Tian"s current strength, with the saint treasure in his hand, if any saint had the intention of fighting him, it was also not easy. He relaxed, causing fatigue to flood him. He leaned against the wall and fell asleep.
Tang Tian immediately walked around casually. Seeing Crane"s look, he felt warmth. To everyone, the fight was extremely difficult.
Draco Constellation.
Liang Feng looked at the two armies in front of him, sighing in his heart. The news of the loss of Vibrating Mountain Army had already came back to Draco Constellation. The current Draco Constellation immediately went into an unspeakable chaos and panic from top down. Vibrating Mountain Army was Draco Constellation"s strongest army, all the other armies were terrible, and unable to have heavy responsibilities.
Tang Tian did not have any intention of giving up, holding onto the momentum of victory, he had rushed to their doorsteps.
Liang Feng originally did not care about it, if it was just an army, he might have a chance. But….
His gaze had swept the two armies in front of him countless times, the large numbered mechanical army, did not cause his gaze to linger long. But the smaller Lupus Army, caused his pupils to constrict.
Lupus Army, the sudden emergence, the amateur army that was called cannon fodder by countless of people, was actually winning battle after battle, causing people to be unable to look down on them. Liang Feng naturally did not look down on them, although he was not a military leader, but with regards to their air, vigor, his sensitivity was much stronger than regular military leaders. The small army that had only a few hundred men, had a formidable coordinated qi, with extremely few weakness. Looking at the big mechanical army, although they had the numbers, but their vigor were barely together, and obviously had more chaotic weaknesses.
If it was only the mechanical army, he was confident. But adding the Lupus Army, the degree of difficulty of the battle had rose steeply.
But, he himself did not have any intention to fight. As the only saint in Draco Constellation, his position was extremely high, even the Draco Master was unable to order him. If not for their relation being good, he would not even accept anything.
"Long Zhu personally brought the army out, causing the entire Draco Constellation to be stunned. I hope your side can believe that, Draco Constellation definitely does not have any schemes on Ursa Major Constellation, the attack of Vibrating Mountain Army was completely the actions of only Long Zhu."
Liang Feng explained calmly, regretting accepting the matter. As a saint, how could he bend his head and speak to others like that?
A beautiful blue mechanical spirit weapon, walked up to the front and stopped about 200m away from him.
Liang Feng"s heart turned cold.
The sensitivity of the battle environment of a saint level was something no ordinary martial artist could comprehend. The blue mechanical spirit weapon that came out, stopping in its place, to Liang Feng, revealed a lot of information.
200m away, was just barely out of his attacking range.
His heart immediately gave rise to a misconception, as long as he put in more force, he could take the opponent"s life. Killing the chief commander of the army, that thought, was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with enticement. Even for Liang Feng, in that moment, wanted to take action.
But he fiercely pressed down that foolish thought, calmed down, and realized, although the opponent looked to be out of the formation, but the qi around the opponent did not separate from the army behind, rather it was still in it.
A trap!
Surfaced in Liang Feng"s mind, using the chief commander as bait was one of the frequently used method of how armies dealt with high level martial artists. But his confidence as a saint made Liang Fei not retreat, his great mind quickly calculating.
The trap might not be real, as experts could take the bait and spit the hook out, which was a common thing. And for such matter to saints, it was a very normal thing. Because ordinary military leaders were unable to comprehend the power of saints, and while setting the trap, they would easily expose a hole and weakness. All these small weakness were sufficient for saints.
If I made a move, what is the probability of success?
The more he calculated, the more cautious and cold Liang Feng"s mind became. He realized surprisingly, that he did not have the adequate a.s.surance. The calculations and results were all very vague, victory or defeat was separated by a fine thin line.
The opponent"s understanding of a saint"s power was extremely deep and clear.
The casual judgement caused Liang Feng to be very prudent. Before Leo Constellation and Honorable Martial Group fought, Heaven"s Road had been peaceful for far too long, and a face off of an army and saint had not been heard of for over 10 years. The strength of a saint, in terms of realm, spirit domain, without personally experiencing it, was very difficult to understand.
Only the big powerhouses would give military leaders the opportunity, in case they faced off against a saint and met with failure.
Of course, maybe there were such definitely powerful talented and genius military leaders, but to Liang Feng, that was not a good thing.
The surprise and cold feeling caused Liang Feng"s att.i.tude to quietly change.
"To use such a thing as an excuse, cannot be pa.s.sed." A mocking voice came out from inside the blue mechanic spirit weapon.
Liang Feng also laughed: "That is true. Why not tell me whatever request you have, and we can all discuss it."
From the other party"s tone, Liang Feng could tell that he did not have the intention to swallow Draco Constellation. As long as the other party was willing to talk, that would be a success.
Bing definitely did not find it weird for Liang Feng"s att.i.tude. As long as Liang Feng was not dumb, he would not send Draco Constellation to its death.
"I will give brother Liang face. 3 hundred billion star coins of compensation, 10 eighth level vibrating mountain beasts, two gold ranked treasures, 10 unique martial cards, 400 tons of Dragon Crystal Spirit Core Ores. Oh, Decline for bargains."
Liang Feng knew that the other party was taking a big mouth, but he also knew that was normal.
The current Draco Constellation had lost the protection of Vibrating Mountain Army, and was sushi on a chopping board, waiting for people to slice.
"10 days, I only gave them 10 days of time, if you do not accept, then we have to take them all by ourselves." Bing"s tone was cordial, as though he was speaking to an old friend: "This is completely giving brother Liang face. 15 days, only 15 days, we can definitely take over Draco Constellation. We can obtain that fortune by ourselves. I have always been an expert in milking people dry. Anyways we have not have much use for Draco Constellation, I can just sell it. Draco Constellation is also one of the 5 polar domains, I think that it can be sold for a good price. Immortal Martial, Leo Constellation, they definitely have an interest. That is definitely a good deal, two checks to come in!"
Liang Feng was swayed and stunned by Bing, takeover a constellation, then….resell it….
Such a genius, oh no, such a greedy way of thinking, how did he think of that…..
Is he truly a military general? Since when did military generals act as shameless as those businessmen….
Liang Feng then regained his senses, laughed silently. Since when were the benefits of Draco Constellation related to me? Him showing his face was for the sake of giving Draco Constellation a chance to mediate, other than that, he could not be bothered.
To make the army stop was already good, sufficient to say that they were afraid of him as a saint. But for war negotiations, that was not something prestigious and not something he wanted to be a part of.
Liang Fei smiled: "I am indebted to your sire"s respect, Liang Feng is extremely honored, but, Liang Feng is just a messenger, and have already pa.s.sed the conditions back to the palace. Sire, please wait a moment, I believe they will give their reply shortly."
Liang Feng was extremely familiar with the higher ups of Draco Constellation. He knew, the conditions were extremely harsh, but Draco Constellation would most likely choose to accept. They were all cowards, without any resolution to fight. To them, accepting was the right choice.
Liang Feng had decided to leave Draco Constellation. The opponent"s blade was extremely fierce, and Draco Constellation would definitely take a big hit. Losing the protection of Vibrating Mountain Army, they had lost a lot of blood, and Draco Constellation would definitely attract more l.u.s.t from others.
And for Tang Tian"s side to set a deadline of 10 days, that was because they wished to take the juiciest piece of the meat before the other wolves pounce.
Such cunning shrewdness!
Liang Feng was extremely curious about the military general and Tang Tian. Tang Tian, hailed as "G.o.dlike young man", was said to be younger than 17 years old, and around him were a group of genius young men, all of them were tender in age, but were astonishingly gifted.
As expected, in less than an hour, Draco Constellation sent a reply, they agreed to Bing"s conditions, but they also proposed a new condition.
They hope to receive Tang Tian"s protection.
Liang Feng was surprised, it seemed like the higher ups of Draco Constellation were not all useless people, to be able to think of the idea which was not really an idea. If they were going to be ripped off by other people, why not take the initiative to join them.
He suddenly thought of a terrifying matter, if this alliance was to be successful…
Ursa Major Constellation – Draco Constellation – Andromeda Constellation – Lupus Constellation, Ursa Major Constellation with the awakened Big Dipper, Draco Constellation with its" strong foundation, Andromeda Constellation with its flourishing economy, Lupus Constellation with its thriving population.
The effect birthed from the merging of these four constellations, was absolutely terrifying!
Was a new tyrant going to be born?
