Chapter 159: The Broken Dragon.

Senior Long's voice echoed in Kai's mind, a note of acknowledgment in his tone. "Hmm, I see you've successfully formed the Star Ring," he commented, his words resonating with a hint of approval.

Kai responded, his voice filled with determination. "Yes," he confirmed, "I'm contemplating advancing to the next stage - the creation of the Nine Dark Stars."

Senior Long's retort was immediate and stern, his voice ringing out like a warning bell. "Don't even entertain that thought," he cautioned, his tone leaving no room for argument.

Kai was taken aback, confusion clouding his features. "Why?" he asked, unable to comprehend Senior Long's intentions.

Senior Long's reply was chilling, his words stark and unyielding. "You will die, instantly. No God will be able to salvage your soul," he stated, his voice echoing ominously in Kai's mind.
