Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 1407: Chapter 563: Does Your Highness Permit It?

In the temporary secluded cultivation ground, Xu Jin was internally observing his thirty-second Cloud Tower.

In less than four and a half days, Xu Jin had already forged five additional layers of Cloud Tower.

At this moment, Xu Jin was fully activating the Mingji Star Pattern, immersing his consciousness into the Cloud Tower, striving to sense the elusive Heaven and Earth Bridge.

Within the Cloud Tower, Xu Jin could clearly sense the presence of the Primordial Spirit in the Upper Star Palace. It was a most mysterious feeling.

It was as if he could see above the heavens, and the Primordial Spirit seemed within reach, yet so ethereal and untouchable.

The so-called bridge was probably the invisible link between the Cloud Tower and the Primordial Spirit of the Upper Star Palace.

Compared to the time of the twenty-seventh layer of the Cloud Tower, the sensation was closer and clearer, but still unreachable.

Yet Xu Jin was happy; progress meant hope, and that was good.

As he pondered, Xu Jin suddenly felt a chill run through his heart.

The Mingji Star Pattern he was activating subtly imparted an extremely peculiar feeling to him, as if the entire world was giving him a strange sensation.

Xu Jin’s heart was filled with apprehension, instinctively thinking that danger was imminent.

He immediately invoked the Heaven and Earth Authority, activating the Eye of Overlook to survey all directions.

Within a radius of six thousand miles, there was no danger, but the moment he invoked the Heaven and Earth Authority, that abnormal feeling intensified greatly.

After sensing for a few moments, Xu Jin abruptly stepped on the stars and turned his gaze towards the southern frontier of the Eight Desolate Continent.

The abnormal feeling was coming from there.

Was something major happening there?

Just as Xu Jin was pondering this, his thoughts were interrupted by a message from his teacher, Qi Shanye.

[Minister of Military Affairs Elder Jiang Zu has ordered the entire city to be on alert, and has also activated the Blood Saber Formation for reasons unknown. The Blood God Sect Hierarch went to the south over a hundred breaths ago, purpose unclear.

Be careful, it is very likely that the actions are targeting you.]

At the same time, Uncle Mo Ji also sent a warning message, and Blood Cloud City also entered a state of alert.

”The south? What’s about to happen?”

In the next instant, Xu Jin soared into the sky, concealing his aura as he flew toward the southern frontier to explore.

Other things could be deceptive, but the unusual feedback from Heaven and Earth to Xu Jin could not be faked.

The position Xu Jin was currently at was just slightly southward.

According to the map of the Eight Desolate Continent obtained earlier, Xu Jin was about seventy thousand miles away from the southern frontier.

With normal flying, it would take about one and a half hours.

Xu Jin was preparing to explore a bit.

During the flight, it was not merely flying.

He would fly for 15 minutes and then perform a Space Oriented Movement.

The Divine Soul Power consumed by casting a Space Oriented Star Skill could be recovered within 15 minutes as long as Xu Jin activated the Spirit Star Skill brought by the hundred and eight Clear Soul Star Patterns.

With such a coordinated approach, the speed was not slow.

Moreover, his Divine Soul Cultivation could always remain at its peak.

The further south he flew, the stronger the abnormal feeling became, and the clearer his perception.

It seemed as if in the southern frontier of the Eight Desolate Continent, a immensely majestic aura was emanating.

”Could it be that some treasure is emerging?”

In doubt, Xu Jin continued flying for nearly an hour, and when he was over four thousand miles from the southern frontier, he decisively stopped.

Since the Blood God Sect Hierarch had already arrived, Xu Jin dared not rush blindly forward, but rather observed from a distance.

After finding a place to conceal his aura, he directly activated the Eye of Overlook to observe the situation within six thousand miles.

Upon this observation, a slight change came over Xu Jin’s expression.

Fortunately, he was cautious enough.

There were two Ninth Tier presences, and their auras were very familiar.

Both the King of Eight Desolates, Ju Zhang, and the Blood God Sect Hierarch were there.

There were also six in the Late Period of the Eighth Tier.

Gathered together, they were not fighting.

But oddly enough, outside the southern edge of the Eight Desolate Continent, there seemed to be a mighty streak of brilliance approaching rapidly.

”What is this?”

The Eye of Overlook could not see clearly, but Xu Jin did not dare to get too close.

Wasn’t that courting disaster?

All he could do was use the Eye of Overlook to slowly observe and analyze gradually.

*****

Southern frontier.

The newly arrived King of Eight Desolates, Ju Zhang, wore a somewhat displeased expression.

”Why did you not inform this king earlier about Sect Hierarch Yu’s friend coming?”

”Your Highness, my friend only mentioned it once, and I wasn’t certain, so I didn’t dare to report it. Unexpectedly, he brought his Eighth Tier Star Domain, which is about to successfully connect with the Eight Desolate Continent, and only then notified me. I just arrived,” the Blood God Sect Hierarch naturally dared not notify in advance.

If he had reported earlier, and if the King of Eight Desolates had been prepared, what if he temporarily imposed conditions?

If they didn’t agree, he wouldn’t allow the connection, which would have been troublesome.

Now, well, the rice was almost cooked.

”An Eighth Tier Star Domain?”

Ju Zhang’s expression hardened. ”Sect Hierarch Yu, then what is your friend’s cultivation level? Late Period Eighth Tier? Peak? Or Ninth Tier?”

”I’m not quite sure, probably Eighth Tier. Breaking through to Ninth Tier isn’t that easy,” the Blood God Sect Hierarch replied.

”But, without this king’s permission, he hastily made his Star Domain connect to the Eight Desolate Couriers. Isn’t that inappropriate?” Ju Zhang’s expression turned somewhat cold.

He was very uncomfortable.

He felt that the Star Domain suddenly connecting was not a good thing.

As for how this Star Domain managed to establish a connection via the Altar Sky Road, he had his theories.

Previously, when he dispatched envoys on a large scale, several had mysteriously disappeared and could not be reached.

So the sudden appearance of an Eighth Tier Star Domain was understandable.

It had been premeditated!

An Eighth Tier Star Domain would greatly impact the power dynamics of the Eight Desolate Continent.
