Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead

Chapter 732: Chapter 329: Martial Star Monarch

The Wooden Carving of Martial Star Monarch is the strongest consumable Wu Chang currently possesses. He originally planned to save it as a trump card for the World Dungeon, but surprisingly, he used it here.

On second thought, using it here isn’t unexpected either.

There’s a saying, ”One lord can’t serve two gods.” The Evil God Remains of the Silent Route were suppressed by the Martial Star Monarch, so naturally, the Evil God Remains in the Peaceful Town should also involve the Martial Star Monarch.

Once unfamiliar, twice acquainted. According to the Sea God General, during the first intervention of the Martial Star Monarch, they were ambushed by a yellow monster summoned by the Evil God Remains. This time, it’s a chance to regain the upper hand.

Wu Chang whispered the Sea God General’s words again, informing the Martial Star Monarch of the yellow monster’s existence, and then activated the item.

The statue of the Martial Star Monarch transformed into a stream of light, rushing towards the sky. Moments later, a bright star appeared above the heavens.

”Item Name: Wooden Carving of Martial Star Monarch”

”Item Type: Consumable”

”Artifact Level: A”

”Item Skills: Descent of the God”

”Skill Description: Summons Martial Star Monarch to assist in battle, Duration: 30 seconds.”

The Martial Star, also known as Kaiyang, is the sixth star in the Big Dipper.

In ancient Xia Country, the Big Dipper held a significant meaning, with each of the Seven Stars representing Heaven, Earth, Man, Time, Music, Law, and Star.

Kaiyang represents Law, governing the order of all things.

With the appearance of Kaiyang, the peculiar celestial phenomenon of the stars returning to their positions was thus broken.

Stars in the sky each have their duty, governing the operation of all things, and cannot leave their posts for even a moment. How could all stars return and hide in darkness simultaneously?

The appearance of Kaiyang was like poking a hole through the black cloth covering the heavens.

From point to surface, cracks spread from the hole in all directions, and in the blink of an eye, the sky was full of cracks.

In the next moment, the jet-black sky shattered, stars once again shone brightly, and the moon submerged in the sea also rose again.

The phenomenon of stars returning to their positions was broken, and the Dream Divine Kingdom of the Master of the Deep Sea instantly weakened by ninety percent. Though its form remained unchanged, its strength had greatly diminished.

Wu Chang, Erin, and the Great Saint Mother seemed to awaken from a nightmare. The surroundings were still the Lost Continent, but the originally dark and terrifying atmosphere of despair vanished completely.

The Master of the Deep Sea, moving within the Divine Kingdom earlier, resembled a writhing mountain, daunting merely at a glance.

Now, however, it was only a larger mass of filth, no longer possessing the might that connected the heavens and earth.

Realizing the link between the Divine Kingdom and the stars was severed, the Master of the Deep Sea roared towards the sky, the sound echoing across the entire Lost Continent.

But unlike last time, now its roar was merely an expression of anger.

Angry?

Angry too soon.

Breaking the stars’ return is merely a bonus effect of the item. The real threat hasn’t yet appeared.

In the night sky, as stars reappeared, Kaiyang, which caused all this, plummeted straight down, falling precisely onto the head of the Master of the Deep Sea.

Boom!

Before everyone could make out what was happening, they saw Kaiyang, like a railgun from a sci-fi movie, crash directly onto the Master of the Deep Sea.

Roar!

Amidst intense light and heat, along with the screams of the Master of the Deep Sea, half its body instantly vaporized, turning into a foul-smelling black-green mist.

In a flash of silver light, the black-green mist was sliced apart, dispersing with the wind.

A tall and mighty man emerged, clad in white Bright Armor, donning a Bronze Beast Face Mask, wielding a Bright Silver Spear, with azure ribbons swirling around his arms.

Though differing slightly from the Wooden Carving in Wu Chang’s hand, the majestic presence remained identical.

The Martial Star Monarch gazed distantly at Wu Chang, his eyes piercing into the depths of one’s soul, able to discern the true nature of good and evil within one’s heart.

Moments later, the Martial Star Monarch redirected his gaze, showing admiration upon seeing Erin, before turning his focus back to the Master of the Deep Sea.

Wu Chang sighed with relief, glad he wasn’t judged an evil person.

He didn’t forget the note on the Wooden Carving of Martial Star Monarch:

”Note: Martial Star Monarch has a just temperament, indomitable spirit. If used by those with great malice or evil, beware of being slain by Martial Star Monarch first.”

If it were the Painter using it, the item might have backfired instantly. Luckily, his upright character allowed him to wield this treasure.

Next time someone says he’s not righteous and questions his integrity, he’ll definitely get angry. He’s got the affirmation from Martial Star Monarch!

Having assessed Wu Chang’s character, the Martial Star Monarch charged at the Master of the Deep Sea with his spear.

Though the Master of the Deep Sea seemed cowardly, within his own Divine Kingdom, he couldn’t be intimidated by a temporary godly projection. He brandished his tentacles at the Martial Star Monarch valiantly.

Despite being merely a temporary projection and being subject to suppression in the Desolate Realm like the Great Saint Mother, the Martial Star Monarch faced the Master of the Deep Sea, who had successfully infiltrated and established a Divine Kingdom, not only holding his ground but suppressing him throughout.

The Great Saint Mother was genuinely amazed by Wu Chang’s methods this time. The disruption of the celestial phenomenon and breaking of the Dream Divine Kingdom already seemed unbelievable to her.

The Great Saint Mother, having awakened, quickly discerned through her remaining dream-like senses, that they had fallen into the trap of the Master of the Deep Sea from the very start.

The Master of the Deep Sea managed to bypass her absolute purity and undying sacred fire, silently dragging her into a dream without her noticing.

Yet such a dream, which even she was deceived by, was seen through by a mere mortal, leaving her baffled.

Did Wu Chang possess a soul quality comparable to that of a higher god, or did he possess an ability stronger than absolute purity?

Before she could recover from the shock of Wu Chang’s disruption of the celestial phenomenon, she saw the Martial Star Monarch descend from the sky, carrying an awe-inspiring power even she shuddered at, launching a fierce assault on the Master of the Deep Sea.
