Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 226: Chapter 125: Brave Legacy (Third Update, Please Subscribe)

”Xu Jin, this is all the information about the Second-tier Star Domain and the dangers that lie within. Do you have any questions? If so, ask them now.”

On August 8th, inside Ning Yuchan’s small courtyard at the Jinshan Taoist Institute, Ning Yuchan was providing Xu Jin with individual guidance before his Star Casting.

This included all the information related to the Second-tier Star Domain and its dangers, as well as some precautions for Star Casting.

”Teacher, based on what you said, does it mean that if my strength allows it, as long as I can withstand the attacks and ensure my own safety, I can continue to cultivate within the Second-tier Star Domain?” Xu Jin asked.

”No, no, no. Within the Second-tier Star Domain, theoretically, you can cultivate up to the Ninth Layer of the Star Refining Realm, but absolutely not. If your Cultivation Level breaks through to the Star Refining Realm within the Second-tier Star Domain, then you won’t be able to leave, you’ll be trapped in the Second-tier Star Domain forever.

Remember what I just told you, don’t try to be a hero. If you sense a danger you can’t cope with, return immediately!”

With each question from Xu Jin, Ning Yuchan gave another round of earnest advice.

As time was running out, Ning Yuchan finally said, ”It’s almost time for the gathering for the opening of the Second-tier Star Domain. Let’s go, I’ll take you to the Star-picking Tower.”

The Star-picking Tower that Ning Yuchan mentioned is not the usual one entered through the Star-picking Order.

Usually, the Star-picking Tower they refer to as entered through the Star-picking Order is called the Star-picking Secret Realm.

While the actual present-day counterpart of the Star-picking Tower is referred to as the Star Tower.

However, the one Ning Yuchan was taking Xu Jin to was the present-day counterpart of the Star Tower’s branch in Jinshan County.

These pieces of information, Xu Jin had heard before, but the actual branch of Star Tower, Xu Jin had truly never seen before.

Xu Jin followed with a cheerful expression.

Since receiving Qi’s Starlight Transmission yesterday, Xu Jin had felt a great deal lighter!

Qi was still alive!

That was the first piece of good news!

And having this one piece of great news was enough!

This had made Xu Jin feel considerably more relaxed since yesterday.

But Xu Jin also understood that Qi, from beginning to end, had sent him only one Starlight Transmission.

This represented that Qi’s situation must not be very good.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have sent just one transmission.

But as long as there is life, there is hope!

Now, he needed to seize every opportunity to quickly enhance his strength.

After a while, Ning Yuchan brought Xu Jin to an open square at the foot of the outer mountain of the Jinshan Taoist Institute.

Mountain Master Dong Zhao, Lu Xianbing, Yue Daqi, Wang Weisheng, Zhang Han, and others had already arrived.

”Is everyone here?” Mountain Master Dong Zhao asked as Xu Jin arrived.

The attending Governor Tian Zhang nodded, ”Mountain Master, all nine people entering the Star Domain for Star Pointing have arrived.”

”Hmm, is everything ready? The recovery Pills and, most importantly, all the necessary Pills?” Mountain Master Dong Zhao asked the crowd.

This time, the disciples were heading to the Star Domain for Star Casting, a true real-world battle, so they needed to bring their own Star Weapons and recovery Pills.

As everyone nodded, Mountain Master Dong Zhao took out his Star-picking Order and activated it slightly.

In an instant, Starlight flashed before everyone, revealing a seven-story Star Tower appearing out of nowhere before the group.

It resembled the Star Tower that appeared in the Autumn Examination Secret Realm, but it was much shorter.

The Star Tower in the Autumn Examination Secret Realm seemed infinitely tall, while this branch in front of them had only seven stories.

”This is the return Jade. Keep it safe. If you complete your Star Casting or encounter a life-threatening danger, immediately crush this return Jade. Within a breath of time, it will send you out of the Star Domain you are in.”

As he spoke, Mountain Master Dong Zhao solemnly handed out the return Jade to everyone, finally giving Xu Jin a different one for the Second-tier Star Domain.

”Remember, don’t be greedy—safety first!

Although the First and Second Tiers of the Star Domain you’re going to won’t present you with dangers you can’t handle within a certain period, if your life is in true danger, return immediately!

Better safe than sorry!” Mountain Master Dong Zhao reiterated.

Already instructed over and over again by the Instructors and Governors, none of the disciples were impatient, for they all knew that the Mountain Master truly had their best interests at heart.

After waiting for 15 minutes, with a flash of light from Mountain Master Dong Zhao’s Star-picking Order, Dong Zhao solemnly said, ”Alright, the First-tier Star Domain is open. The eight of you, go ahead! Once inside, hold the return Jade, and you’ll see the corresponding Star Gate. Step through it, and then find a suitable place to cast your Star quickly.”

”Yes!”

”Yes!”

Wang Weisheng was the first to grasp his return Jade and step into the branch of the Star-picking Tower, vanishing in an instant, followed by Lu Xianbing, Zhang Han, Yue Daqi, Zhang Ming, and the others.

After the eight had disappeared one by one, Mountain Master Dong Zhao then turned to look at Xu Jin.

”Xu Jin, I promised you before, if you placed in the top ten in the autumn exam, I would personally reward you with a Second-tier Star Weapon. Tell me, what kind of Star Weapon do you want?” Out of the blue, Mountain Master Dong Zhao asked.

Xu Jin was somewhat stunned.

If not for Mountain Master Dong Zhao bringing it up, Xu Jin had almost forgotten about that.

”Mountain Master, it’s not necessary. You saved my sister before, and besides, this is what I should do as your disciple...”

”What, you look down on me as your Mountain Master? You even refuse my reward?”

”Not at all!”

”Then choose. It is a breach of etiquette to refuse a gift from an elder!”

With that one sentence, Mountain Master Dong Zhao left Xu Jin no room for refusal.

”Xu Jin, I’ll give you a direction for your choice. From your previous battles, your Star Skill is very sharp. In combat, you mainly utilize Star Skills, so for the time being, weapon-class Star Weapons might not be the most useful for you.
