Chapter 1425: Fiery Thunder Star Core! The Might of the Supreme Sovereign!

"Is this... the power of the Supreme Sovereign?"

Xu Jingming's heart surged with a storm of shock.

He had felt Sister Ye Li's spatial techniques many times before.

Though equally profound and unfathomable, he could at least vaguely perceive the ripples of space and the trails of cosmic laws.

But this time, the Frost Crown Sovereign's action completely exceeded his perception.

It was as if the very rules of the universe were quietly rewritten by her will.

This level of power could no longer be described merely as 'powerful'—it was nearly 'authority'!

"This is the teleportation ability gained only after cultivating space law to the highest realm.

Younger Brother, if you ever cultivate space law, you may take this as your goal."

Ye Li, standing gracefully beside Xu Jingming, smiled.

Clearly, she had been brought along too.

But unlike Xu Jingming's shock, she had long grown accustomed to this.

"Teleportation is a Sovereign-level ability. Your current goal is still to complete your Body Strengthening Art."

The Frost Crown Sovereign raised her slender hand slightly, pointing forward:

"That is the Fiery Thunder Star Core you need to cultivate the Star Core Lei Gang Body."

Xu Jingming followed the direction she pointed.

There, in the cosmic void tens of millions of kilometers away,

a colossal celestial body floated silently.

It was no ordinary star.

Its entire body glowed a deep, dazzling blue-purple!

Its volume matched that of a common star, but its surface bore no fiery solar prominences.

Instead, countless thick, dragon-like lightning serpents surged and roared without cease!

These lightning serpents intertwined, collided, and exploded.

Releasing blinding light bright enough to illuminate an entire star region.

Even from tens of thousands of kilometers away, the furious aura of thunder law made his skin tingle and go numb.

More terrifying still, within the heart of this blue-purple lightning sphere,

he could faintly see even more condensed, nearly liquid terror-realm lightning plasma slowly swirling.

Emitting a destructive heat and energy fluctuation.

"This is the Fiery Thunder Star Core..."

Xu Jingming swallowed hard.

The Fiery Thunder Star Core is a quasar.

And a quasar is not the same as a star.

A quasar's energy level is ten thousand times greater than that of a star!

For instance, right now, merely gazing at it,

he could sense the terrifying power within—power capable of effortlessly erasing all things.

And soon, he would cultivate within this Fiery Thunder Star Core.

This alone proved the horror of the Star Core Lei Gang Body, a T0-level Body Strengthening Art.

"Prepare yourself. I will send you to the deepest core of the Fiery Thunder Star Core.

Then I will guide the thunder into your marrow to complete the first layer of the Star Core Lei Gang Body."

As the Frost Crown Sovereign finished speaking, Xu Jingming had not yet reacted.

When he saw her act!

"Condense."

No earth-shattering spectacle. No complex, arcane law fluctuations. Only a single, simple word.

The next instant,

Xu Jingming felt an indescribable 'coldness'—as if originating from the universe's origin—descend silently.

This 'coldness' was not merely a drop in temperature.

It was the absolute manifestation of a law that stilled all motion and silenced all energy.

Then, he saw a scene he would never forget.

The blue-purple Fiery Thunder Star Core before him, violently releasing endless light and heat.

The hundreds of millions of thunder serpents surging and roaring on its surface.

As if a pause button had been pressed—they froze instantly!

Not slowed. Completely frozen!

Like carved blue-purple crystal, frozen in their last moment of snarling fury, utterly motionless.

Then, this stillness spread rapidly inward.

The liquid lightning plasma ceased its flow; the violent energy reactions within halted instantly.

The entire terrifying lightning star, over a million kilometers in diameter,

in less than a single breath, transformed from a furious energy celestial body

into a silent, glowing faintly with an eerie blue-purple light... an ice-frozen thunder star!

All destructive heat, radiation, and thunder fluctuations vanished.

Only an absolute, soul-shaking 'stillness' remained.

It looked like a vast and beautiful cosmic ice sculpture.

Xu Jingming's pupils shrank to their limit, his breath nearly halted.

Freeze a star?

No, freeze a quasar with an even more intense and peculiar energy signature!

What kind of unimaginable technique is this?

This had already surpassed the bounds of his understanding of power!

"Teacher remains as powerful as ever..."

Ye Li, usually so composed, couldn't help but whisper in awe.

Though she was a student of the Frost Crown Dominator, she had rarely seen the master wield power.

And this one display was a level she could never hope to reach.

"Keep striving. When you one day become a Dominator, you might attain one ten-thousandth of this power."

The Frost Crown Dominator's cold voice echoed in Xu Jingming and Ye Li's minds.

Instantly, the three figures vanished.

When they reappeared, they were less than a kilometer from the 'Fiery Lei Ting Core'!

Xu Jingming felt his entire field of vision filled by the colossal quasar!

Fortunately, it was already frozen; otherwise, the moment they appeared, the radiated energy would have obliterated him outright.

"Go in. All the way to its core."

The Frost Crown Dominator's voice sounded again:

"I will gradually lift the surface stasis, releasing primal Lei Gang suitable for your current stage to endure.

You must activate the first level of the 'Star Core Lei Gang Body' technique to guide the Lei Gang in refining your physique.

Ye Li, follow him in and watch over him."

"Yes, Master," Ye Li replied respectfully.

Xu Jingming took a deep breath, suppressing the shock and tremor in his heart.

Immediately, dark golden Lei Guang surged around him, forming a streak of light that followed Ye Li and plunged into the Fiery Lei Ting Core.

The Fiery Lei Ting Core had a diameter exceeding a million kilometers.

At Xu Jingming's own flight speed, it would take hours to reach the core.

Fortunately, Ye Li was with him.

With her spatial laws enhancing them, the two reached the very heart of the Fiery Thunder Core in mere breaths.

Before him lay a spherical space roughly a hundred meters in diameter.

It remained under the Frost Crown Dominator's absolute stasis.

The walls of the space were not solid matter, but formed from solidified, translucent blue-purple crystal-like lightning.

These crystals layered upon one another, gently converging inward.

Like the heart of a colossal, unopened ice lotus of lightning.

Within the crystals, a dense, liquid-like blue sapphire energy flowed, frozen mid-motion.

That was the highly condensed primal Lei Gang.

"Here is enough."

Ye Li's cold voice rang out.

She hovered in midair, her black gown illuminated by the blue-purple crystal glow, appearing mysterious, tall, and chillingly elegant.

"Little brother, as Master instructed, I will guard you here and assist in controlling the intensity of the Lei Gang's release.

Now, adjust your state and activate the first level of the 'Star Core Lei Gang Body' technique—'Draw Lei into the Marrow'—and prepare yourself.

Remember, once the Lei Gang is released, if you feel you cannot endure it, speak up immediately."

Ye Li looked at Xu Jingming.

Her voice remained cold, yet carried concern and warning.
