Chapter 292

The crisp, cracking sound of the Bronze Key turning pierced through the sea of stars, and the roots of the giant tree suddenly surged, growing a thousand feet in an instant. Primordial Stellar Eclipse patterns emerged upon the surface of the roots winding around the Star Core. The moment these patterns spread to the head of the key, an ancient chant of the Fox Clan ritual drifted from the depths of the dying sun. The sonic waves coalesced into the Jiuyi Soul-Severing Pestle; its tip, glowing with stellar light, pierced the Throne of Myriad Tribulations, shattering the skulls of a hundred thousand Star Gods into fine powder. The fragments of the female infant’s Battle Armor suddenly flew backward. The armor plates fused into a Bronze Star-Burial Casket, locking onto the fragment of the Yaoguang Star Position. The instant the Star Marks on the casket resonated with the roots of the giant tree, the fragment inside the chest of the Star-Fall Wraith erupted with intense light. Wherever the light touched, nine thousand eclipse runes split the surface of the dying sun. From every fissure, bronze chains extended, their ends tethered to bronze torture instruments identical in shape to those found on the Qingqiu altar.
