When system cheat becomes rampant!

Xiang Beifei had found every time he lit up a constellation, something sealed within was revealed. For instance, the ability "Learn by Analogy" corresponded to a piece of tortoise shell; "Abruptly Stop" was like an invisible whirlwind merging into his spiritual power. Sealed inside the Fang Constellation was the concept "Heavy as Mount Tai, Light as a Feather," represented by an ancient, yellowed piece of paper. The breath soil originally was just a tiny clump of dirt that he had nourished to grow with his spiritual power.

But what was actually sealed inside the Dou Constellation, and the abilities it held, remained unknown to him.

He only knew that the now-illuminated Dou Constellation required seven spiritual power crystals from the early stages of God Refining to be unlocked. As for Xiang Beifei, he was still at the early stages of Meridian Opening—a long way off from reaching God Refining.

However, the seven stars on the Dou Constellation were now flickering dimly and brightly, as if something divine sealed within could sense the presence of the volcano's essence and was provoked by it, becoming very irritable.

Humm!

The Dou Constellation emitted a powerful green aura, blasting towards the crater.

The massive presence at the volcano's crater got instantly overwhelmed by the Dou Constellation, weakening immediately by a third. It seemed infuriated that Xiang Beifei dared to challenge it and, in response, an even more terrifying presence hurtled towards him, clashing with the Dou Constellation's green aura.

The essence of the volcano's crater was a black color, fiercely colliding with the green glow of the Dou Constellation in the sky!

Humm!

The two distinct auras erupted with a deafening roar, bizarre fluctuations meeting in midair, the light instantly flaring and extending miles around, illuminating the entire withered forest and the treants below.

All the reawakened treants from the withered forest had gathered here, but now, they trembled, horrified by the light in the sky, too scared to even move from where they stood.

Boom!

The black aura from the volcano's crater grew stronger, while the aura from the Dou Constellation obviously struggled under suppression, probably because its power was limited by the seal, although to Xiang Beifei, it still seemed terrifying.

Nevertheless, the thing sealed within the Dou Constellation was becoming increasingly agitated, unable to tolerate being challenged. It buzzed wildly, exploding again and forcefully pushing against the seal of the Spirit Gathering Book to suppress the volcano's essence!

Boom! Boom!

The two distinct auras battled fiercely, the formidable essences sweeping out for miles, all trees shattered from the vibrations, and even the mountain itself trembled.

Xiang Beifei stood beside the Spirit Gathering Book, feeling as if he were caught between two terrifying powerhouses, but he could do nothing. This level of battle was already within the realm of God Refining, far beyond his capability to intervene.

Of course, he didn't need to.

Even though the Dou Constellation on the Spirit Gathering Book was tightly sealed, its residual breath still managed to suppress the opponent. It was like a slumbering dragon awakening and roaring, its voice thunderous, shaking the entire sky into agitation.

But this time, the Dou Constellation's aura blasted the black aura of the volcano downwards, the green light like a massive tornado, plunging into the volcano's crater, and then dragged a dark shadow out from within!

Xiang Beifei could finally see what was inside the volcano: a section of black wood, thick as a wrist and three feet long, pitch black as though charred or like a branch that had soaked in water for too long and turned rotten.

This seemingly trivial piece of black wood could erupt with such a terrifying breath that it affected the whole mountain.

The black wood appeared extraordinary, certainly not a system item, but a truly formidable entity. The Reverse Stream's waters that had defeated the Ghostly Whiskers of Remnant Visage clearly flowed towards it, seemingly drawn up forcibly from the mountain's base to the volcano's crater at the summit.

When it materialized, moisture hung in the air around it while the black glow intertwined, reflecting waves of ominous energy across the sky.

However formidable the black wood was, the Dou Constellation from Xiang Beifei's Spirit Gathering Book still managed to pull it out and began suppressing it!

Whoosh!

The black wood refused to be subdued and suddenly sprouted branches and leaves, dark foliage extending from the wood, swiftly turning into a ten-meter-tall black tree.

This large tree exuded a sinister presence, chilling and cold, vaguely entwining with the ambiance of the whole withered forest. The entire forest shuddered, and numerous powerful vibrations surged skyward, resonating with the black tree from afar.

The treants too stood terrified, frozen by the sudden overwhelming presence.

Every leaf on the tree quickly transformed into sharp, cutting through space, shattering the Dou Constellation's bindings, filling the sky with black leaves, each one like a blade, small as a palm, but Xiang Beifei knew clearly—

Nobody present would likely withstand the attack of these leaves, not even him!

Because of the power of a single leaf, its power was equivalent to an attack from someone in the God Refining stage!

Seeing the black tree break free from its restraint, it trembled once more, as the violent green aura surged again. In an instant, the mountain peak underwent a massive change, the entire sky enveloped in dazzling green light.

That green radiance was exceptionally strong. As it swept through, myriad vibrant, fresh leaves floated in the air, identical to the ones the black tree had condensed!

The two distinctly different types of leaves clashed with a loud bang in mid-air, the green leaves proving to be superior, crushing the black leaves into dust. The black tree, finding itself unable to do anything to the Dou Constellation, once again unleashed a powerful suction force, sweeping toward the ground below.

The stream at the foot of the mountain, the trees, stones... these things were pulled from the high mountain by the black tree, turning into streaks of rapid flowing lights, constantly being absorbed into the black tree. The black tree was devouring everything, its own aura climbing higher as it grew incessantly stronger!

At this time, even Long Guocheng and the others who were originally blown away by the big wind were swept back up by the black wood. About a dozen people were swiftly pulled towards the black tree, and if no measures were taken to stop it, they too would likely be devoured by the black tree!

Xiang Beifei, seeing them being swept up, immediately controlled his own Spiritual Power. The ability "Heavy as Mount Tai" acted upon them, increasing their weight, resisting the suction force, preventing them from rising too quickly.

Long Guocheng and the others didn't understand what was happening. Unable to resist in the process of being tossed about, they could only let the terrifying aura herd them around, even making them dizzy, desperately using their own Spiritual Power to protect themselves, with no time to pay attention to the battle happening beside Xiang Beifei.

If it wasn't for the black tree being too busy dealing with the power of the Dou Constellation, not focusing all its strength on them, they could have been easily torn to shreds by the powerful black aura.

Xiang Beifei, trying to pull those few people over to him, was unsuccessful. His Meridian Opening stage strength was minuscule compared to the two strange entities above; Long Guocheng and the others continued to drift upwards.

The power of the Dou Constellation was being suppressed by the Spirit Gathering Book, and this wasn't even its full strength, but even so, it was subtly gaining the upper hand.

Xiang Beifei felt it was necessary to give it a helping hand. The first order of business was to deal with the black tree, so he directly channeled his own Spiritual Power into the Gathering Spirit Book.

His Spiritual Power had just entered when the spirit of the Dou Constellation in the book perked up, as if it had received supplementation. Although Xiang Beifei's Spiritual Power was weak, it was out of the ordinary, and it seemed to have a great attraction for the divine entity inside the Dou Constellation.

At this moment, the light within the Dou Constellation became even stronger, once again gaining the advantage. This time, it cut off the black tree's devouring, and a majestic phantom emerged from the Dou Constellation, carrying a trace of Xiang Beifei's Spiritual Power!

This trace of feeble Spiritual Power was drawn out, quickly amplified, and struck the black tree.

Simultaneously, Xiang Beifei suddenly discovered that the black tree also seemed to carry a trace of his own Spiritual Power, using it to counter the Dou Constellation.

"What's going on?"

Xiang Beifei felt puzzled. How could his Spiritual Power be within the black wood?

But quickly, he remembered that during the battle with the Ghost Mustache of Remnant Visage, he had touched the stream, which seemed to have devoured his Spiritual Power.

And since the stream flowed towards the black wood, could it be his Spiritual Power that had just been devoured by the black wood?

He had always had the clearest understanding of his own Spiritual Power and knew how to use it to exert combat strength.

He stared intently at the black tree, and then—

Whoosh!

The black tree burst into flames!

The black tree itself hadn't expected a problem with the Spiritual Power it devoured. In a moment of panic, it lost its composure. It quickly came to its senses to deal with the flame, and soon extinguished the fire created by Xiang Beifei, but in that brief moment of distraction, the Dou Constellation seized the opportunity.

A green phantom rippled through the air, like a blade cutting, the spreading ripples directly split the black wood down the middle!

The black wood, caught by the ripples, immediately wilted, no longer able to combat the aura of the Dou Constellation. The aura on top of the Dou Constellation seemed to awaken, and although it was sealed in the Gathering Spirit Book, it unhesitatingly dragged the black tree towards itself.

This time, no matter how the black tree struggled, it was futile. The green aura crunched down on it, the black tree once again pressed into that piece of black wood, and in the end, it was crushed by the Dou Constellation into the shape of black coal dust!

The black fragments were reeled back by the Dou Constellation. During this process, they were ground into streams of pure dark green Spiritual Power that floated into the Spirit Gathering Book, landing on the seven stars of the Dou Constellation!

Hum!

Two of the seven stars of the Dou Constellation lit up!
