Chapter 1202: You Can’t Be Serious

Roan didn’t know whether his Dark Starlight comprehended his words or not. However, it truly did burst with power the moment he said that. At first, nothing happened to the barrier. Then again, that didn’t continue for long.

*Shhhhhhh…*

Roan noticed that the point where his Dark Starlight Energy was touching seemed to start to melt off. It was very slow, not to mention that the barrier was actively trying to heal itself. In any case, it was truly opening for him. There was a problem, though. ‘My Dark Starlight doesn’t have enough power. I’m not connected to the star yet, so it can’t use the Starlight from outside.’

Roan was right. The energy forming the barrier was enormous, but the energy in his Dark Starlight was anything but so. It had never been cultivated before, so how could it even compare? The worst part was that Divine Energy and Soul Power couldn’t be used for it either.

[Hey, Roan. I think I can help with that.] Sister Orb told him out of nowhere. As always, she could see everything that happened to the twins, even if it was in a mental world.

Roan was taken aback for a moment but immediately asked back, ‘Help me? How? Rean is too far away, so I can’t access any of the system’s perks.’

[Don’t worry, you don’t need anything from the system itself. You already have what you need for it. Try to focus on your White Scythe.]

‘My…scythe?’ Roan didn’t know what Sister Orb was planning to do. That was just his weapon in the real world. At the moment, he is in the Dark Starlight’s mind world. He couldn’t use it there. ‘Is there a way to bring my scythe here?’

[No, what you need isn’t the scythe itself, but the thing Rean used to forge the scythe.]

Only then did Roan put two and two together. ‘The World Essence?’

[Exactly! You know what the World Essence feels like since it’s part of the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. As I mentioned in the past, World Essence is compatible with literally anything! That said, it should be possible for you to gather it inside your Dark Starlight, using it to fuel its power. It’s just that your scythe will become ruined after you’re done with it.]

Roan didn’t know if it could work, but he had a feeling he shouldn’t let the chance pass up. While still in the mental sea of stars, Roan tried to feel his scythe’s presence in his spatial ring. It was quite hard since spatial rings worked with Divine Energy, which he shouldn’t be using due to the technique.

In the end, Roan used just a single meridian to do that, the extra meridian! One must remember that the twins had one extra meridian in their bodies compared to other cultivators. That was the point from which their souls connected. Since it wasn’t part of standard cultivation techniques, he decided that it was the best place for him to control Divine Energy.

Sure enough, the Starlight Body Cultivation Technique didn’t stop even though Divine Energy passed through that extra meridian of his. Eventually, it reached his spatial ring, which Roan used to bring his scythe out. The scythe then fell on his lap, allowing Roan to feel its presence.

Roan knew what the World Essence of the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm felt like. It wasn’t wrong to say that it was as if it was part of his own body and Rean’s as well. Rean’s Black Star and Roan’s White Scythe were the only two weapons Rean had ever made using World Essence, so they were stronger than any other weapon Rean made in the past. It was proof of how World Essence could be used by almost anything.

The World Essence in the scythe then slowly flowed into Roan’s meridians, making its way to his Dark Starlight. Roan’s Starlight wasn’t very big to start with, and the attack on the barrier made it even more feeble. However, the moment the World Essence touched the Dark Starlight, it burst with power once more. It was as if oil had been added to the fire.

However, Roan could also tell that this wasn’t a good idea. The World Essence wasn’t really Starlight, so he could also feel the struggle of his Starlight in using the essence. If it wasn’t because he was in a tight situation, he would have stopped straight away. ‘I better not do such a thing again,’ Roan thought.

[Seems like it worked. Now’s your chance. Pierce that thing!]

Roan knew Sister Orb was right and used all the extra power of his Dark Starlight into the barrier. The melting of the barrier increased as it screamed in anger. Not only did it seem that the stars had emotions, but that barrier also seemed to have it as well. It was hard to tell whether it was real or not.

*Clash!*

Soon enough, the Dark Starlight Energy opened the hole, making Roan’s Starlight appear on the other side. Not long after, the hole he created through the barrier closed once again in a matter of seconds. However, it didn’t matter anymore as Roan was already on the other side. He then looked in the direction he felt the attraction to his Dark Starlight and willed it to move once again.ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelenglish.net . Fɪre.net

Roan then spent two more days jumping from one star to another. Naturally, he couldn’t find a single one that was already taken by another cultivator anymore. Every single one of them was completely ripe for the taking. Of course, Roan ignored all of them. He had set his target.

‘Even if there’s some star here that’s already taken, it will be too hard to find. That barrier doesn’t seem to be something that can be passed just because you want to pass it,’ Roan muttered inwardly.

Eventually, Roan felt the attraction increasing in power as his own Dark Starlight seemed to become excited. He knew that he had arrived at his destination. It was then that he arrived in front of a dark star. To be more specific, it was a black dwarf! However, his mouth twitched right after. That’s because the black dwarf wasn’t alone. Instead, it revolved around a white dwarf. It was as if the two dwarf stars were dancing in an infinite cycle. ‘You can’t be serious…’
