The Black Star Monarch

Li Jun was cast out of his family after his father's death. Bullied by his cousins and robbed by his uncle, his upbringing was less than pleasant. Despite that, Li Jun tried his best to live a quiet life; he kept to himself and worked hard to earn a living. However, fate dealt a cruel blow when a vicious attack left him unable to work again. Li Jun fell into despair. It was only through the selfless sacrifice of his devoted mother that a glimmer of redemption emerged as she sold off her final sliver of wealth to afford him a chance at a better life. Just when all seemed lost, a mysterious silver ring, seemingly tossed from the hands of celestials, descended from the heavens. Upon receiving the celestial gift, Li Jun's life took a surprising turn. As the layers of deceit peeled away, Li Jun found himself thrust into a web of lies that began to unravel before him. Compelled to untangle the enigmatic circumstances surrounding his father's demise and the orchestrated misfortunes that befell him, Li Jun strode on through the world of cultivation as the heavens trembled at his feet. He had seen a whisper of despair and vowed to never glance upon it again. ______________________________ Hello Author here. :) I just wanted to let you all know that I have a discord server and if you would like to join the community and discuss topics regarding this novel or other novels in general feel free to join.

Xun's return.

Li Jun waited in silence as Master Cao stood by his side. He had a lot on his mind, but the main thing was the last couple of things the Patriarch had said—well, it was more the things he didn't say but implied. 

"Xun is a divine beast, isn't he?" Li Jun asked after a while.

Master Cao didn't say anything. He didn't need to. The silence was louder than words.

"What does it mean?" Li Jun asked. "What is a divine beast?" 

"Divine beasts are well…" He paused for a moment, composing his thoughts before he continued. "Spirit Beasts are animals that evolve into something more than a beast king, while Divine beasts are beasts that belong to their own species. They never evolved from animals; most animals come from their bloodlines in the first place."

He said a lot but didn't quite give an exact answer, although Li Jun had a hunch.

"Are dragons divine beasts?" He asked suddenly. 

Master Cao hesitated for a moment and nodded his head.
