Cedric was awakening the Mythical Beast Raion's Bloodline, but the awakening process was definitely not simple or comfortable.Cedric's vision blurred as the pressure inside his mind intensified. He felt as though the awakened bloodline was attempting to overwrite him, to replace his existence with its own primal instinct, and for a moment, his thoughts faltered as the storm threatened to consume everything he was.But, even in that overwhelming agony, he refused to surrender.His teeth clenched so tightly that blood seeped from his gums, and his hands dug into the ground beneath him as he forced himself to remain conscious. He understood that losing himself even for a moment could mean becoming nothing more than a vessel for that ancient power."I will not be consumed," he growled in a trembling voice. But even in that trembling voice, there was a trace of such resolution that it gave an unshakable feeling.However, when he refused to surrender, the blood within his body acted as if

[Please choose between three options...]﹂ 300 Two Star-ranked treasure, Bloodline Evolution Liquid.﹂ 30 Three Star-ranked treasure, Bloodline Ascension Essence.﹂ 3 One Star Void-ranked treasure, Cosmic Bloodline Ascension Essence.Cedric looked at the three options given to him by the system. He had already gone through the information on these three rewards.Now that Menka had also left, he chose the third option without hesitation.[Congratulations on obtaining Three One Star Void-ranked treasures, Cosmic Bloodline Ascension Essence.]As the system's notification faded, the air before Cedric rippled slightly, as if space itself had been disturbed.A faint hum echoed in the surroundings.Then, without warning, three slender vials materialized in midair and gently descended into his outstretched hand.Each vial was crafted from a translucent, crystal-like material. They were flawless and cold to the touch. Inside them swirled an ethereal blue liquid, shimmering with a soft glow. Fi

"Mortal Star Realm!"Cedric took a deep breath to calm himself down.In truth, he had been staring at the information panel for a long time. His mind had gone blank the moment he saw those words. It was only after a while that he finally managed to react.Never in his wildest dreams had he expected to become a Mortal Star Realm warrior just by consuming a single vial of Cosmic Bloodline Ascension Essence.There were still two vials left.What would happen if he consumed them as well?The thought arose almost instantly. Cedric's gaze shifted toward the remaining vials, and for a brief moment, an uncontrollable impulse surged within him, urging him to consume them without hesitation.However, he forcefully suppressed it.Cedric closed his eyes and steadied his breathing, gradually calming the restless energy in his mind. He could not afford to be careless.He had just ascended to the rank of a Mortal Star Realm warrior. His foundation was still unstable, and his control over this newly g

With the stability provided by his status and the resources at his disposal, Cedric was able to focus entirely on improving himself without unnecessary distractions.During this time, he obtained a large number of "return rewards" from his system.The [Fragmented Core of Wind Star] is a broken remnant of a celestial wind entity, containing condensed wind essence.Celestial wind entity means a wind domain that had once evolved into a

When a warrior advances to the Star Lord Realm, their method of cultivation undergoes a fundamental change. They no longer need to cultivate the "star" located in the depths of their consciousness as they did before. Instead, their focus shifts to the core, where they must condense and cultivate stars within it at each stage of the realm.In simple terms, the Star Lord Realm consists of a total of nine stages, and each stage corresponds to the formation of one star within the core. This means that, over the course of the entire realm, a warrior must cultivate a total of nine stars, each one representing a step toward greater power and stability.The most remarkable aspect of this process is that these stars are not created randomly. Each of the nine stars formed within the core is essentially identical in nature to the star that exists in the depths of their consciousness. In other words, they are perfect replications, carrying the same structure, essence, and underlying principles.S
