Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 1469: Chapter 590: The Four Giants’ Mission

”Teacher... Teacher, you gave me the Star Healing Star Pattern of the eighth-tier upper?”

At the foot of Horse Head Peak, Wood Spirit Palace Master Chi Lei held the Star Healing Star Pattern Xu Jin had just bestowed upon him, looking utterly surprised.

The way he looked at Xu Jin had completely changed.

Of course he recognized this Star Healing Star Pattern as being of the eighth-tier upper, he was just instinctively astonished.

In the lineage of his Wood Spirit Palace, through generations of deduction, they had only managed to deduce the Star Healing Star Pattern to the seventh-tier upper, as if grasping a edge.

Yet unexpectedly, the King of Territory’s single action was an eighth-tier upper, truly shocking him, but also feeling very natural.

Without the eighth-tier upper’s Star Healing Star Pattern, the King of Territory wouldn’t have been able to possess a healing capability several times greater than his.

”Haven’t you already figured it out?”

Xu Jin replied indifferently, then said, ”You can freely teach and use the Star Healing Star Patterns of the eighth-tier lower and middle, but without my permission, you cannot spread the eighth-tier upper.

In the future, if I pass on other Star Patterns to you, follow this same rule.

Right now, in your position, evoke your Primordial Spirit and swear the Great Dao Oath.”

”Yes.”

Truthfully, concerning the Star Healing Star Pattern, if he were willing to dedicate time and do nothing else but arduously deducing it day and night, he could successfully deduce it within five years.

For the eighth-tier upper Star Healing, by diligently focusing for twenty years, it could be conquered.

However, where would he find so much time? The Thunder Elephant, Wood Elephant, and a large number of Thunder and Wood Star Patterns are all waiting for him to deduce them.

Moreover, as a Palace Master, his duties are many; how could he do nothing for twenty years?

So, under normal circumstances, for him to deduce the Star Healing Star Pattern to the eighth-tier upper, it is estimated to take thirty to fifty years.

Originally, his plan was to deduce the Star Healing Star Pattern to the eighth-tier lower for his disciples at the end of his life to be worthy of his ancestors.

Now, he received it easily from Xu Jin.

He increasingly felt that acknowledging this teacher was worthwhile, and began to expect more in his heart.

Because he knew, solely relying on the eighth-tier upper Star Healing, his teacher, the King of Territory’s healing abilities couldn’t surpass his own.

Wood Elephant!

The most difficult Wood Elephant Star Pattern, the King of Territory might also be of the eighth-tier upper.

Additionally, not only the eighth-tier upper Wood Elephant.

The King of Territory surely has other unique Wood Series Star Patterns.

With this thought, Wood Spirit Palace naturally understood what to do.

The King of Territory, this teacher, generously gave him an eighth-tier upper Star Healing Star Pattern, saving him at least twenty years of hard work.

Then, he must show sincerity!

Otherwise, why would the King of Territory pass on more precious Star Patterns to him?

Just based on an oral acknowledgment as teacher?

That is absolutely impossible.

The next moment, Palace Master Chi Lei evoked his Primordial Spirit right in front of Xu Jin, then made the Great Dao Oath in his presence.

”Disciple Chi Lei of Wood Spirit Palace, now entrusted by Teacher, King of Territory Xu Jin with top-tier Star Pattern Secret Techniques, without Teacher’s permission, shall never be shared. Grateful for Teacher Xu Jin’s profound teaching, disciple Chi Lei pledges lifelong service in reverence to the mentor...”

This Great Dao Oath made Xu Jin’s expression unusual.

Unexpectedly, Palace Master Chi Lei really meant it!

Xu Jin’s intention was to offer some benefit as a superficial gesture, forming a temporary alliance between the Wood Spirit Palace and Dachen, making the State Preceptor’s life a bit easier, and reducing Dachen’s losses.

Anyway, he gave the Star Healing Star Pattern; enhancing the rank of this Star Pattern also benefits the Human Clan of the present world as a good deed.

The oath was meant to slightly restrict the spread.

Unexpectedly, Palace Master Chi Lei evoked his Primordial Spirit and made a Great Dao Oath to serve as a disciple in Xu Jin’s presence.

This is completely different.

There are currently three methods to influence and control a person through the Divine Soul Essence Spirit: it’s controlling the Divine Soul, Divine Soul Sealing, and the Great Dao Oath.

Controlling the Divine Soul is simple, essentially creating a switch for life and death; when one wishes for death, simply triggering it suffices.

But who knows what others do behind the scenes?

Divine Soul Sealing must be voluntary, where a Divine Soul Type Star Artifact replaces something akin to the Dao, relatively weak, with many loopholes.

However, the Great Dao Oath is different.

For cultivators aspiring for further advancement in cultivation level, breaking the Great Dao Oath is like imposing an Infinite Heart Demon upon oneself, blocking their Dao path.

The stronger the cultivation level, the greater the potential, the more effective.

And it’s genuinely heartfelt.

Doing one thing in front and another behind the scenes won’t work in the face of a Great Dao Oath.

Palace Master Chi Lei clearly seeks progress ardently; by evoking his Primordial Spirit and making this Great Dao Oath, he has truly acknowledged this master-disciple relationship.

This indeed was Xu Jin’s unexpected harvest.

”Disciple has a question to ask Teacher.” After making the Great Dao Oath in Xu Jin’s presence, Palace Master Chi Lei suddenly felt emboldened.

A disciple asking a teacher, it’s as it should be!

”Hmm, go ahead and ask.”

”Disciple wants to know if Teacher’s Wood Elephant Star Pattern has been deduced to the eighth-tier upper?”

”Correct.”

Even though he had expected this, upon hearing the confirmation, Palace Master Chi Lei was still dazed for a few moments.

The difficulty in deducing the Wood Elephant Star Pattern, he is deeply aware of.

If he abandoned all other tasks, within fifteen years, he could deduce the Wood Elephant Star Pattern to the eighth-tier lower, within fifty years to the eighth-tier upper.

But if he cannot abandon tasks, even a hundred years would be difficult.

”Teacher, may I boldly ask another question? Is this Wood Elephant Star Pattern deduced by Teacher himself or passed down by someone?” asked Palace Master Chi Lei.

”Of course, I deduced it myself!”
