Yu Zi Yu’s Void Elf Form, with the scattering of the Tribulation Clouds, had truly stepped into Tier-4, and not just any ordinary Tier-4.

Amidst his glistening eyes, a deep shade of purple briefly flashed by. This was the result of the near materialization of the Spiritual Energy within his body.

With an astonishing 50 million units of Spiritual Energy, Yu Zi Yu’s Void Elf Form had reached the Intermediate Level of Tier-4.

However, this was merely the surface. In fact, Yu Zi Yu’s true combat power was several times greater.

Not to mention an ordinary Tier-4 Transcendent, Yu Zi Yu could stand his ground even against the strongest Tier-4 Transcendents.

After all, the Elf Clan was an inherently superior species. As an Elf, and an unprecedented one—a Void Elf—Yu Zi Yu believed that his very existence rivaled that of legendary races like Dragons, perhaps even surpassing them in some aspects.

Reflecting on this, Yu Zi Yu remarked with a chuckle, “I truly look forward to the power of this body.”

With that, Yu Zi Yu made a grabbing motion in the air.

Immediately after, accompanied by a deafening roar and flickering purple glow, an enormous purple longbow appeared in Yu Zi Yu’s hand. Upon closer inspection, the longbow was engraved with intricate, dense patterns resembling stars.

The Stellar Formation — a high-level Spiritual Energy Gathering Formation.

In this world’s terminology, it would be considered a Magic Formation.

After comprehending the Principles of the Stellar Formation, Yu Zi Yu could now arrange a small-scale Spiritual Energy Gathering Formation with just a wave of his hand.

These small Formations were not particularly helpful in cultivation. After all, compared to the massive Spiritual Energy Gathering Formation Yu Zi Yu had set up in the Pocket of Vitality, which could gather starlight from the universe to fuel the cultivation of entire populations, the small Stellar Formation he arranged now could barely gather the Spiritual Energy Yu Zi Yu could absorb in one breath.

However, this did not mean the small Star Formation was useless!

If one looked at it, they could now see flickering starlight shimmering on the purple longbow. Illuminated by the starlight, the entire longbow seemed to be enveloped in a hazy glow, making it appear exceptionally mystical.

“From now on, you shall be called the Star Bow…”

As Yu Zi Yu softly murmured, the purple longbow, seemingly responding, trembled slightly in his grasp.

In fact, the Star Bow was the companion weapon of Yu Zi Yu’s Void Elf Form. The Void Elf Form itself was born from the Dark Willow Tree and a section of the Cosmic Root, which had transformed into the Cosmic Willow Tree.

In essence, his body originated from plants. Building on this foundation, Yu Zi Yu guided the parts of the Dark Willow Tree and the Cosmic Root that had not fully integrated into his Void Elf Form to create this purple longbow.”

At the same time, Yu Zi Yu inscribed a high-level Spiritual Energy Gathering Formation—the Stellar Formation—onto the bow. Thanks to this, the bow could gather starlight from stars, creating arrows that could annihilate everything in their path.

This was truly a bow of mass destruction, born solely for the purpose of killing enemies.

The reason Yu Zi Yu chose a longbow as his weapon was naturally due to the Elves’ heightened senses and immense psychic strength, making them innate archers.

As a member of the Elf Clan, but far beyond the common Elves, a Void Elf who could even perceive space. Yu Zi Yu could be considered a once-in-a-millennium prodigy of archery.

Just like now… Despite having never used a longbow as a weapon before, the moment Yu Zi Yu grasped the purple Star Bow, a familiar and intimate sensation surged through him.

Even more terrifying…

Lifting his gaze slowly, Yu Zi Yu focused on the space that constantly rippled before his eyes, something only he could perceive. He gently raised the longbow in his hand. His left hand held the bow and his right hand drew the string.

*Booooom…* Loud rumbles reverberated in the air as an arrow, formed from gathered starlight, slowly manifested on the bow, nocked onto the bowstring.

“Left hand should be as steady as Mount Tai, and eyes as sharp as an Eagle’s. Steady hands come from wrist strength, and sharp vision determines range…” Recalling some archery principles from Earth, Yu Zi Yu gradually understood the Principles of Archery.

For an existence like him, a little guidance was all it needed to fully comprehend and master the skill.

The transformation of the mind after stepping into Tier-5 should not be taken lightly.

And now… as Yu Zi Yu’s understanding of archery deepened, the arrow in his hand became increasingly radiant. It shone so brilliantly that from afar, it resembled a purple Sun.

Even more astonishing, the sound of bowstring vibrating reverberated through the air…

*Hummmm…* Like a child jumping in joy and excitement, Yu Zi Yu’s Natal Weapon—the Star Bow, sensing his presence, became excited for the first time.

[My arrows will pierce through everything!] Quietly roaring in his heart, Yu Zi Yu released the Spiritual Energy string of his bow.

Immediately, with an earth-shattering roar, a beam of starlight tore through everything, shooting towards the horizon.

*Booooom, booooom, booooom…* Continuous explosions shook the ground as the arrow flew forward, tearing through the air with devastating force. Mountains shattered in its wake, leaving behind a deep gully, at least 10 meters deep, stretching for kilometers into the distance. The sheer power of the impact seemed to warp the very landscape itself.

At that moment, if one looked up, they would be greeted by a horrifying sight: ten full mountains, pierced straight through by Yu Zi Yu’s starlight. The arrow continued its relentless journey, traveling an astonishing distance of hundreds of kilometers.

However, even so, Yu Zi Yu could not help but sigh in disappointment. “No, the Spiritual Energy isn’t refined enough. A true starlight arrow should not be this loud, and pierce through instead of blasting ten mountains apart…”

Yu Zi Yu was not speaking without any basis.

As an Elf, Yu Zi Yu naturally understood that a true master archer would never waste even a drop of their Spiritual Energy. As such, the more fearsome and destructive Yu Zi Yu’s arrow was, the more it revealed his current lack of mastery over Spiritual Energy.

“If I truly grasped the essence of a godly archer, my arrow’s range could increase several times, and its piercing power could be elevated to a level where it could tear through the defenses of a Tier-4 Transcendent from thousands of kilometers away.” With a light chuckle, Yu Zi Yu’s eyes shone with anticipation.

He longed for the day when he could become a truly terrifying godly archer.

After all, the Elf Clan’s godly archers were renowned across the myriad races of the universe for their astonishing skill.

According to the legends, in ancient times, the Elf Clan gave birth to an astonishing godly archer who once shot and killed a God across multiple planes.

In the previous era, planes were equivalent to worlds in this current era.

In other words, that archer shot through several worlds and killed a God, one of the most terrifying lifeforms.

The most horrifying thing about this was that he killed even the most indestructible of Gods by that single arrow. It was no wonder that this godly archer was remembered by countless races.
