Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 323: Chapter 154: Silver Star and Fraud (Please Subscribe)_2

He could no longer locate the target.

At the place where Xu Jin had vanished, he unleashed a wave of Fire Series Star Skills and started searching like a headless fly.

This behavior instantly made Xu Jin think of a possibility.

The Heart Demons evolved in the Star-picking Secret Realm, could they only evolve the condition of Star Power and Divine Soul Star, and not imitate the evolution?

As for the Heart Demon’s ability to use the Breaking Evil Star Technique, the reason was simple: the Breaking Evil Star Technique was just a regular Divine Soul Star Pattern.

But with unconventional Divine Soul Star Techniques like Invisibility, the Heart Demon would be clueless.

However, at the moment, this was just a guess from Xu Jin. To confirm it, he would need multiple tests during subsequent challenges.

Two seconds later, the Heart Demon suddenly turned around.

But it was Xu Jin who had sneakily approached and suddenly exploded in strength, his Star Radiance already blasting onto the back of the Heart Demon.

At the same time, he executed the Kite Ring Strategy at full power, continuously unleashing Breaking Evil.

One second later, the Silver Star Level Heart Demon dissipated.

Challenge successful, Xu Jin had obtained another Silver Star.

From Xu Jin’s feeling, with his strength, obtaining a Silver Star wasn’t difficult as long as he went all out.

What about a Gold Star, then?

Ten breaths later, the light and shadow in front of Xu Jin changed, and he was again pulled into the battlefield.

This time, Xu Jin was challenging a Gold Star Level Gatekeeper.

This time, the Green-clothed Swordsman had become a White-clad Bladesman.

The terrifying presence of a First Layer Peak of Star Condensation, even from a distance, gave Xu Jin endless pressure.

The moment the light screen disappeared, Xu Jin employed Flying Star Step explosively, moving backward defensively to also test the Invisibility.

But while still in mid-air, the White-clad Bladesman appeared beside Xu Jin.

With just a single strike, Xu Jin was slashed into bits of starlight.

Defeat!

A crushing defeat!

Afterward, Xu Jin reviewed his loot from the Star-picking Secret Realm: two Copper Stars, two Silver Stars, and then he left the Da Chen Star-picking Tower Main Building, not attempting another challenge against Gold Star Level Heart Demons.

After several consecutive challenges, Xu Jin had also figured out some patterns.

Regarding Xu Jin’s own challenges, the Heart Demon was stronger than the Gatekeeper.

This had to do with Xu Jin’s own strength.

But as for the evolution of Divine Soul Power, the Star Tower very likely just arranged it directly according to the Cultivation Level tier, and it was not the simulation itself.

Once he learned some special Divine Soul Star Patterns in the future, one try would let him know.

The Gatekeepers were also very formidable.

Xu Jin’s current Cultivation foundation was exceptionally high, the kind that is one in a million.

It was normal for him to defeat Silver Star Level Gatekeepers who were three tiers higher.

But Gold Star Level Gatekeepers, who were an entire realm higher in Cultivation Level, were unbeatable for Xu Jin at present.

There was a crushing advantage in Cultivation Level and also in Star Skill and Star Pattern.

However, that didn’t mean they were indefeasible.

Xu Jin felt that, once his Star Pattern and Star Skill formed a small system, there might be a chance to defeat a Gold Star Level Gatekeeper and pick a Golden Star.

But that wouldn’t be possible until he reached the 5th and 6th Layer, or even the 7th and 8th Layer of Refining Star.

In the early stages of Refining Star, it was impossible.

Besides this, Xu Jin had another doubt— did the Red Scale Heart, the Heart Demon of the Star-picking Tower, have the ability to imitate evolution?

Pill Dawn Academy.

In front of the small building where the National Master Cheng Yuxiao resided, sudden footsteps rang out and Chief Peng, with hair and beard both white, appeared in front of the small building.

”Come in, Elder Peng.”

A few breaths later, Chief Peng, with his white hair and beard, stood before Cheng Yuxiao, who was in white attire with her long hair flowing over her shoulders, immersed in comprehension.

”What is it?”

”Palace Master, in the Star-picking Secret Realm, our Dachen has gained two more Silver Stars,” said Elder Peng.

”Silver Stars increased? And by two?”

Cheng Yuxiao looked up, her face already full of joy, ”How long ago did this happen?”

”According to the report from the clerk on duty, Palace Master, it should have increased within two hours.”

”Two hours? Two Silver Stars, this indicates that it was a consecutive challenge against Gatekeepers and Heart Demons that resulted in the increase, who could it be?” Cheng Yuxiao wondered curiously.

”I am not clear on that. The information from the Star-picking Secret Realm is too scarce, at least I can’t see it with the authority of my Star-picking Order,” said Chief Peng.

”If you can’t see it, I definitely can’t! Thank you for your hard work, Elder Peng. When you have nothing to do and are strolling about at night, you can also pay attention to whether there are any undiscovered talents in the Daoist Institute.”

”I will.”

After bowing respectfully, the moment Chief Peng stepped out of the small building, he vanished.

In the mind of National Master Cheng Yuxiao, however, the image of Xu Jin suddenly surfaced.

”Could it be this youngster? After all, his performance in the God-Killed Battlefield was quite astonishing.”

As she spoke, National Master Cheng Yuxiao herself took out her Star-picking Order, entered the Star-picking Secret Realm, and stared at the information displayed in her own Star-picking Secret Realm, somewhat lost in thought.

Six Silver Stars, one Gold Star.

After a long time, she sighed to herself.

Gold Stars were too difficult to pick.

Even someone as strong as her had only collected three Gold Stars in her life.

And it had been a full twenty years since anyone in Dachen had picked a Gold Star.

This made the Gold Star she held in her hands especially precious.

One opportunity for high-tier Tao Derivation.

She wanted to use it but also dared not!

If used, the Da Chen National Daoist School would genuinely run out of reserves in this area!

Wanyi, Fang Mansion!

The residence of Academician Fang Shihan, located in the best part of Wanyi in the southern city within the Qinglong District, covered a vast area.

The Fang Family was a well-known noble family in Wanyi, with one being granted the title of Duke, one Marquis from the Galaxy Battlefield, and a full three Marquises from Dachen—a bona fide top-tier noble family.

In recent years, because of the emergence of Academician Fang Shihan, their prestige had even increased.

As dusk approached, one of the Twelve Vice Academicians, Song Ziyue, accompanied by a servant carrying a gift, arrived at their door.
