Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 515: Chapter 219: Flying Sword Star Artifact

Inside the quiet room of the small courtyard, Xu Jin was furiously engraving emblems.

Xu Jin had a very bold idea—he wanted to test whether he could combine the star patterns to be engraved into the Star Lamp and solidify them, then use the Divine Soul Power to duplicate them directly into the emblem.

If possible, Xu Jin would transform into a money printing machine.

No, rather, a stamping machine.

Though the idea was extremely bold, it still warranted an attempt.

However, Xu Jin did not rush to solidify the Third Tier Star Burst Technique into the Star Lamp.

He first began to study the Parallel Progress Dharma Method and the insights into third and fourth-tier emblems given by Academician Kou.

The Parallel Progress Dharma Method was actually quite simple.

Previously when making base emblems with Star Pivot Star Pattern, it started from one point and outlined until it closed.

But the Parallel Progress Dharma Method starts the outline from both the beginning and the end at the same time.

It takes less time and theoretically, it should cover more Star Power.

The quality of the base emblems would be higher.

However, the difficulty of operation was at least two to three times more than the previous method.

Kou Jing provided a solution in the secret techniques section—hard practice!

This little trick didn’t offer much room for shortcuts, just required hard practice.

The more one practices, the higher the proficiency, and at that time, the higher the coverage.

Much like an oil peddler, it is merely a matter of skilled hands.

If Xu Jin wanted to produce more top-grade emblems, this little secret technique must be practiced.

Academician Kou suggested that Xu Jin should first practice with cheaper Second-tier emblems. Under normal circumstances, practicing about a thousand times could enable him to master it fundamentally, and the base emblems produced would be almost as good as with the ordinary method.

If he could practice about ten thousand times, he would definitely be able to produce base emblems with Star Power coverage exceeding ninety-five percent or even more each time.

It must be said, this was indeed an expensive craft.

Ten thousand times, even if practicing with Second-tier Star Jade, at twenty Taoist Merits each, would cost two hundred thousand Taoist Merits.

Of course, it wasn’t without income.

Academician Kou said that after a thousand times, you could basically break even.

But that was for other people. For Xu Jin, since practicing purely required proficiency, practicing in the Star Lamp was highly cost-effective, and almost cost no Silver.

Since this was the foundation, Xu Jin naturally began to grapple with hardships within the Star Lamp.

By the time of the evening class, Xu Jin had practiced over ten thousand times within the Star Lamp.

Xu Jin was not in a hurry to operate practically.

Making money couldn’t be rushed.

Evening was time for the unchangeable evening class, and after taking another Dragon Turtle Soul Refining Pill of the Third Essence, upon refining it, Xu Jin successfully raised his Divine Soul Cultivation to the late period of the Fourth Tier Star Condensation.

Then he continued into the Third Tier Martial Arts Secret Realm to fight for ranking.

The top hundred rankings in the Third Tier Martial Arts Secret Realm each required a direct challenge to move up.

In order to quickly enter the top ten and obtain the Starlight reward, Xu Jin thus needed to fight fifteen times every day.

But today, he did not fight fifteen times.

He only fought twelve times.

The reason was that Drunk Moon Immortal and Stepping on the Star River had come to challenge him.

Today, Drunk Moon Immortal was particularly enthusiastic when challenging Xu Jin.

She also understood that Xu Jin’s main purpose for accepting the challenge was to experience different combat methods and enhance his practical combat experience.

Thus, today’s challenge was exceptionally cooperative, and during the tangle with Xu Jin, she even used a new type of Star Skill.

And she smiled the entire time.

This made Xu Jin feel quite happy too.

Even a girl of average appearance can make someone happy when she smiles, let alone one as beautiful as Drunk Moon Immortal.

”Today I have other arrangements, so I can only challenge you twice,” Xu Jin informed Drunk Moon Immortal directly after the first match; usually, when Xu Jin reduced the number of challenges, Drunk Moon Immortal’s face would instantly darken.

She would be unhappy!

But today, Drunk Moon Immortal kept smiling.

”You’ve been performing quite well recently, so let’s battle again tomorrow.”

These words left Xu Jin completely puzzled.

What had he performed?

Was ignoring her considered good performance?

Should he neglect her more often from now on?

That was the conclusion Xu Jin reached after his contemplation.

Afterwards, Xu Jin went to fight Stepping on the Star River.

Inside the palace at the summit of the snow-capped mountain, having left Star-picking Tower, Drunk Moon Immortal, with a smile on her face, had just returned when Moon Shadow came up to her nervously and asked, ”How did it go, Yueyue? Did you manage to challenge him? Did you add Great Sage Equalling Heaven as a friend?”

Drunk Moon Immortal nodded, ”I’ve added him as a friend! And we challenged each other too!”

”How did the battle go?” Moon Shadow asked anxiously.

Hearing this, Drunk Moon Immortal shook her head, ”I lost, he’s quite formidable!”

Instantly, Moon Shadow found her grievance, ”Exactly, Great Sage Equalling Heaven is too bad! Lacking decency, stingy, not even like a man! Right, did you scold him like I told you to after the battle?”

Drunk Moon Immortal paused, then shook her head, ”Sorry, Shadow, I forgot!”

”How... how could you forget?” Moon Shadow became anxious.

”He... he readily accepted the friend request, and agreed to the challenge, even though I lost... but I had no reason to scold him!” Drunk Moon Immortal said innocently.

”You... you...”

Moon Shadow was so angered that her hand almost trembled, but she couldn’t scold Drunk Moon Immortal, wondering if perhaps Great Sage Equalling Heaven had changed?

Thus, Moon Shadow quietly tried to add Great Sage Equalling Heaven as a friend again.

Just having finished the battle with Stepping on the Star River, Xu Jin saw a flash of Starlight in front of him and received a Starlight Transmission.

[Great Sage Equalling Heaven, Moon Shadow requests to add you as a friend, do you accept?]

[Reject]

After merely glancing at the name, Xu Jin chose to reject!

As a joke, she had to be unable to reach him.

Inside the palace, Moon Shadow, who was instantly rejected, flew into a rage, ”Traitor!”

After yelling at Drunk Moon Immortal, Moon Shadow stormed off furiously.
