Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 1468: Chapter 589: The Able Are Teachers (Part 2)

”Really?”

”Really!”

After giving a definitive answer, Muling Palace Master Chi Lei quickly added, ”However, if such an existence truly exists and is a tiny bit better than me, that’s quite remarkable.

They must be much better than me.”

This was a very sly answer.

How much better someone must be than him is entirely up to Chi Lei to decide.

Seeing Xu Jin’s insight, he continued to probe, ”Palace Master Chi, to what extent must they be better to be considered much better than you?”

Facing Xu Jin’s questioning, Muling Palace Master Chi Lei felt a jolt in his mind.

Chi Lei himself was a renowned figure, known for his proficiency in Thunder Star Skill, called the direct-mouthed Heavenly Mandate Palace Master. Seeing Xu Jin’s inquiry, he feared Xu Jin might find him a living master.

Respect for teachers and the Dao was a tradition in their Wood Spirit Palace.

Back then, it was his extreme respect for teachers that allowed him to stand out among his talented peers and inherit the legacy of the Wood Spirit Palace, taking over its entire doctrine.

After some thought, Chi Lei said, ”King of Territory, based on my current injuries, if I work at full capacity, I could mostly recover in about two hours.

But if there is someone in this world who could fully heal my injuries in 30 minutes.

Then they would indeed be much better than me.

Qualified to become my master.”

Chi Lei’s answer was very cunning, virtually blocking all possibilities.

His Star Healing Star Pattern is currently at the seventh-tier upper, the Wood Origin Star Pattern at the eighth-tier upper, the Elephant Star Pattern at the seventh-tier middle; with such an extravagant combination, healing his injuries still requires an hour.

Even developing from this basis, if someone could enhance the Star Healing Star Pattern to the eighth-tier upper, the Wood Origin Star Pattern to the ninth-tier lower, and the Elephant Star Pattern to the eighth-tier upper, at most they would only double the healing capability.

This means merely doubling the treatment effect, reducing the treatment time to one hour at best, which is four 15-minute intervals.

Under such conditions, further reducing the time to two 15-minute intervals is absolutely impossible!

Even if his master were reborn, it wouldn’t be feasible!

So theoretically, what he said was inherently impossible to achieve.

Unless a true Peak of Ninth Rank expert appeared, primarily specializing in Wood Series.

If someone like that truly appeared as his master, it would be a blessing he couldn’t ask for.

Chi Lei calculated all of this with great precision and insight.

With that said, Xu Jin also frowned.

Under normal circumstances, Chi Lei’s condition is indeed unreachable.

Even if he had the eighth-tier upper Star Healing Star Pattern, the eighth-tier upper Wood Origin Star Pattern, and the eighth-tier upper Elephant Star Pattern, he still couldn’t do it.

However, Xu Jin had unconventional methods.

”Palace Master Chi, are you certain that healing you in 30 minutes qualifies as being much better than you?” Xu Jin inquired.

”I am certain!”

Chi Lei’s voice and expression were exceptionally firm.

No one in this world can achieve such a feat, what should he fear?

”Alright, then please, Palace Master Chi, keep time.” Xu Jin suddenly laughed as he landed.

”What do you mean?” Chi Lei was baffled.

”Palace Master Chi, I will begin healing, and within 30 minutes, I will have fully healed your injuries!” Xu Jin declared.

”That’s impossible!” Chi Lei exclaimed in disbelief.

Even a near Star Lord at the Peak of Ninth Rank couldn’t achieve that speed.

”Palace Master Chi will see upon trying, or do you intend to back out?” Xu Jin’s eyes were filled with amusement, ”If Palace Master Chi plans to back out, then I’ll refrain from demonstrating the method.”

This time, it was Chi Lei who found himself in a hurry!

Something impossible, Xu Jin spoke with such confidence.

Was this bluffing him?

More importantly, if it were true, Chi Lei certainly needed to witness it.

Having immersed himself in Wood Element Star Technique for a lifetime, he absolutely wouldn’t believe such a thing without seeing it firsthand.

”Alright, I’ll time it!”

Chi Lei readily agreed, ”But you must not use Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures or special Spiritual Treasure, it must be with your own strength and star technique, demonstrate it clearly for me to acknowledge it.

Otherwise, I absolutely won’t acknowledge it!”

Chi Lei added another condition to the affair.

”Then please, Palace Master Chi, begin timing.”

Chi Lei nodded and waved, sending out a sand timer to commence the countdown.

In the same instant, a large swath of Star Healing Starlight erupted from Xu Jin’s fingers, entering Muling Palace Master Chi Lei’s body.

As it entered, Chi Lei’s expression suddenly changed in shock.

The level of this Star Healing Star Skill was genuinely above his, and not by a small margin.

This healing speed was twice because of his healing speed.

However fast this was, to completely heal him, would still take an hour.

A far cry from 30 minutes.

Not nearly enough!

Seeing the astonishment on Chi Lei’s face, Xu Jin smiled slightly, then directly activated the Wood Series Law Star on the Candou Platform.

In an instant, the Star Healing Starlight grew even brighter.

Chi Lei was once again taken aback.

The therapeutic effect of the Star Healing Star Skill from King of Territory Xu Jin had now increased by 50% from before.

The healing effect was now two and a half times his own.

Chi Lei’s look towards Xu Jin changed completely!

He was even secretly pondering whether King of Territory Xu Jin might be the reincarnation of one of their Wood Spirit Palace’s ancestors?

How could Thunder Series and Wood Series Star Techniques be so strong?

But thankfully, his previous emphasis proved very useful.

With this effect, slightly over three 15-minute periods should be sufficient to fully restore his injuries.

However, compared to the condition he previously set, it was still far from satisfactory.

And without substantial progress after achieving this level with the Star Healing Star Skill.

Unless there truly was an ancestor reborn!

At this point, Muling Palace Master Chi Lei finally relaxed a bit.

Chi Lei’s change in expression was wholly observed by Xu Jin. Noticing this, Xu Jin’s heart moved, and he directly drew a Green Wood Rhythm emanated from the Elephant Star Pattern, injecting it into the Star Healing Star Skill.

In the next breath, the Star Healing Star Skill light shone with exuberant greenery, its luster escalated, and the life force within surged as well.

Visibly, Chi Lei’s injury recovery speed doubled again.

Chi Lei’s eyes widened instantaneously, round as saucers, ”No... How did you achieve this, King of Territory?”

No matter how shocked Ren Chilei was, Xu Jin merely continued to silently draw on the Green Wood Rhythm, continuously treating Muling Palace Master Chi Lei’s injuries.

Fifteen minutes later, the last fractured bone within Chi Lei healed, and the greenness in Xu Jin’s palm suddenly withdrew. He looked at Muling Palace Master with a smile.

”Palace Master Chi, how is this healing speed?”

Fifteen minutes!

In fifteen minutes, his injuries were completely healed.

The shock within Muling Palace Master Chi Lei’s heart was indescribable.

The feats unachievable even by his master or ancestral master, this King of Territory managed them!

As for the accomplishments in Wood Series Star Technique?

More crucially, King of Territory performed the Star Healing Star Skill right before his eyes purely through the star technique without any external support!

Such a level is surely enough to qualify him as his teacher.

The next instant, Chi Lei hesitated in his heart.

”To acknowledge or to not?”

In that fleeting moment, Chi Lei made a decision.

In another instant, Muling Palace Master Chi Lei slowly stood up, patted the dust off his body, wiped the blood from his lips, and spoke, ”In learning, there is no back or front, he who achieves becomes the teacher.

The proficiency of King of Territory in Wood Series and Thunder Series Star Techniques far surpasses mine.

He absolutely deserves to be my teacher.

Since words were spoken beforehand, today Chi Lei will once again bow to the teacher.

Only asking the teacher to guide the disciple so the disciple may soon glimpse the great path and inherit the true teachings.”

As he said this, the Muling Palace Master prepared to ceremonially bow to Xu Jin.

But Xu Jin stopped him, saying, ”Palace Master Chi, since there were words spoken before, I acknowledge you as a disciple and accept you.

But let’s forgo the ceremonial bow!”

Hearing these words, Muling Palace Master Chi Lei pondered for a few breaths, then bowed deeply to Xu Jin.

”Ah, how I underestimated the world’s heroes, and I was too arrogant, observing the sky like an ant. I hope the teacher will often provide guidance in the future.”

Bowing at this moment, Muling Palace Master Chi Lei was earnest and sincere!

He accepted it!

At this moment, he truly realized his prior arrogance and truly submitted.
