Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 1874: Chapter 788: Carrying Out Orders to Trick the Master and the Evaluation Exam

[The powerful Killing Divine Powers, indeed, are difficult to cultivate, especially the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures needed for cultivation, which are hard to find. I can only provide the cultivation methods; these Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures for cultivation, I don’t have them either.] The Duyue Emperor said.

[I will find the materials needed for cultivation myself, I wouldn’t trouble the esteemed Emperor with that. However, just as the esteemed Emperor said, cultivating divine powers is difficult. Without presumption, I want to ask the esteemed Emperor to list out the Space Killing Divine Powers that can be taught to me, so I can make the most suitable choice for myself.

When the time comes, I will certainly do my best to cooperate with the esteemed Emperor.] Xu Jin left his words hanging, implying the rest.

The remaining meaning was understood by all.

In the Imperial Palace, the Duyue Emperor’s eyes flickered, immediately grasping Xu Jin’s intention.

”Daring to bargain with me, an Emperor, Fenghua’s disciple truly has a bold spirit. Yet, my Killing Divine Powers are not something you can casually cultivate just knowing the methods.

However, since this little fellow has spoken, I’ll let him choose; after all, the cost is borne by Fenghua...”

[Do you think Space Killing Divine Powers are as common as cabbage? Many people can only cultivate one Killing Divine Power, and that would already be remarkable.

But I do have two sets here, let’s see how you choose.

The first is called the Breaking Realm Finger, at profound levels, a single point can shatter stars and break realms, omnipotent. Among the Space Divine Powers I cultivate, it is the most practical and commonly used. Though difficult to cultivate, it is manageable.

The second is called Moon Eclipse, an original, exclusive Space Divine Power I created. It merges with the origin of Heaven and Earth to form the moon’s phase, harnessing the power of the Heaven and Earth Galaxy to trap, limit, and kill enemies. It can attack and defend but is extremely challenging to cultivate!

When I cultivated it back then, it took me an entire sixty-year cycle to succeed.

My personal recommendation is for you to cultivate the Breaking Realm Finger. Of course, if you wish to choose Moon Eclipse, it’s up to you!

But no matter which one you choose, I have only one requirement.]

Receiving the Starlight Transmission, Xu Jin understood that this was the Duyue Emperor about to propose a condition. [Please instruct, esteemed Emperor.]

However, Xu Jin had indeed achieved his goal.

Or rather, he fulfilled his master Fenghua Emperor’s request.

Fenghua Emperor had previously requested Xu Jin to agree to the Duyue Emperor’s condition, but the divine power taught must be Moon Eclipse.

Without Moon Eclipse, don’t learn it.

It’s not worth it!

At this moment, the Duyue Emperor finally listed Moon Eclipse.

[Regardless of which divine power you choose, before mastering it, you must ask me to act as an intermediary to contact your master Fenghua Emperor once a month. This will continue until you master it.] The Duyue Emperor set the condition.

This condition left Xu Jin puzzled.

Ask the Duyue Emperor to act as an intermediary once a month?

Is it really that simple?

Though ordered to scheme against his master, Xu Jin thought it best to consult his master.

So as not to trap his master too badly.

Otherwise, Xu Jin would feel uneasy in his conscience.

Fenghua Emperor treats him really well.

Quickly, Xu Jin resent the Starlight Transmission from the Duyue Emperor to his master Fenghua Emperor.

In the Imperial Palace, Fenghua Emperor looked at the Starlight Transmission from his disciple Xu Jin, slightly opening his mouth in astonishment.

”Once a month means each contact lasts a month, not giving me any room to breathe, this won’t do at all.”

Immediately, Fenghua Emperor instructed Xu Jin.

[Esteemed Emperor, this might not be feasible! You’ve seen me stranded in Dongxuan for over a year, at first, I contacted more frequently for two or three months, then only once in the past half a year.

If I contact too frequently, my master will suspect, and I don’t have that many things to ask either.

Can’t bother you to trouble yourself only to greet my master, can I?] Xu Jin immediately sent the Starlight Transmission according to his master’s guidelines.

Suddenly, Xu Jin felt like he had become the sounding board in this duel between two unders.

[Indeed, well, how often would you like me to help you contact your master?] The Duyue Emperor asked.

Xu Jin initially considered saying once a year but felt it was too abrupt, reducing twelve times to once, too harsh a cut.

[Esteemed Emperor, based on my previous contact frequency with my master, I think once every six months is a very suitable frequency.]

[No way! That’s too few!] The Duyue Emperor flatly rejected Xu Jin’s suggestion.

[Well, how often would you suggest, esteemed Emperor?]

[Once every two months.]

[This might not work. How about once every five months?]

[Impossible, once every three months! At least every three months, there must be contact.]

[Esteemed Emperor, four months then, once every four months, roughly consistent with previous contact frequency, my master shouldn’t suspect.] Xu Jin replied.

In the Imperial Palace, the Duyue Emperor looked at Xu Jin’s reply and finally nodded gently.

What she truly wanted was monthly contact.

That way, she’d have Fenghua’s time completely booked!

Fenghua greatly values promises!

Unfortunately, too frequent indeed would arouse Fenghua’s suspicion.

She then agreed.

[Then it’s settled, remember to fulfill your promise, or beware of me coming straight to you! I will send you the training method for Space Divine Power Moon Eclipse and my insights on the Enlightenment of the Space Law Path via the Thousand Star Token soon, you take them.

And remember, do not spread them!

Next time we meet, we need to complete the Great Dao Oath!

This is the result of my centuries of heart’s blood in enlightenment and research.]

[Rest assured, esteemed Emperor, I certainly will.]

[That’s good. As long as you fulfill your promise on time, if there are any doubts or unclear points during the cultivation of divine powers, you can always come to me for guidance.] The Duyue Emperor said.

[Thank you, esteemed Emperor.]

This amused Xu Jin, considering it a buy-one-get-one-free.

If difficulties in cultivation could be guided, then cultivating successfully shouldn’t be too difficult.

Immediately, Xu Jin reported all relevant results to his master Fenghua Emperor.

In the Imperial Palace, Fenghua Emperor showed a faint expression. Four months once is a result that is still acceptable.

Just that this woman Duyue was too merciless at first, attempting for monthly once, wanting to have him completely booked.

[Since you’ve obtained it, cultivate diligently. Once you’ve mastered this divine power Moon Eclipse, you’ll even have the power to fight back against a True Monarch.]

[Disciple thanks the master for fulfillment.]

[Let’s not mention it, as you are my disciple, our cause and effect are predetermined.]

...

An hour later, Xu Jin’s Thousand Star Token sparkled with starlight, receiving two Jade Scrolls from the Duyue Emperor.

One Jade Scroll recorded the divine power Moon Eclipse, and the other recorded her various insights on cultivating the Space Law.

Xu Jin didn’t rush to read them, planning to study them leisurely later.

Now, Xu Jin is preparing to finish cultivating the Enlightenment Stone, then return to Dongxuan Continent.

Firstly, can’t stay disconnected for too long; secondly, the second round of snowballing is about to begin.

On December 8th, Xu Jin left his beloved Star River Island, returning to Dongxuan Star Realm.

Just upon returning, his Tongxuan received a Starlight Transmission from the Dao Palace.

[In a month, the annual Daozi assessment will take place, all Daozi should prepare in advance.]
