Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 1954: Chapter 831: The Length and Width of Star Patterns

”With the Heaven and Earth Authority of the Kunling Domain in hand, aside from the last one, all the others are nearly complete.

The complete Summer Key seems to be almost within reach...”

*****

Black Tower Island.

The starlight on the floating Black Tower shimmered slightly, and Huang Ling True Monarch flew out from the Black Tower.

It was the Huang Ling True Monarch whom You Yu True Monarch had temporarily sealed using the Black Tower’s power earlier.

Huang Ling True Monarch himself held a portion of Black Tower’s Authority, so he could not be sealed for too long; when the time came, the power dissipated, and he came out on his own.

However, the moment he emerged, True Monarch Lei Bian, You Yu True Monarch, and Xu Jin, who were sitting there cross-legged, turned their heads simultaneously towards Huang Ling True Monarch.

The latter immediately shivered.

”I apologize, I’ll go back myself!”

Without hesitation, Huang Ling True Monarch instantly stepped back into the Black Tower, almost sealing himself.

”Coordinate with my grandmaster for another hour of sealing yourself,” True Monarch Lei Bian’s voice sounded.

”Okay!”

Huang Ling True Monarch agreed extremely swiftly.

In the next moment, You Yu True Monarch activated the Black Tower, inside which Huang Ling True Monarch actively cooperated to further seal himself again.

This meant that the last remaining instability in this surprise attack was completely resolved.

”I’m ready, Yu, what about you?” True Monarch Lei Bian was the first to speak.

”It’s ready.”

”Then shall we go... for the surprise attack now?” True Monarch Lei Bian asked.

”Now is the time!” You Yu True Monarch replied.

”Yu, first refine one-tenth of the Heaven and Earth Authority from the Hai Fen Realm,” Xu Jin proactively offered one-tenth of the Heaven and Earth Authority.

Just as You Yu True Monarch was about to decline, Xu Jin added, ”Refine it, so when you rush in, you won’t be targeted by the Heaven and Earth Will, and we can even slip in without a sound.”

”Alright, I’ll return it after using it.”

After saying that, Xu Jin was suddenly reminded of a previous surprise discovery when interrogating captives, and he looked towards Senior Brother True Monarch Lei Bian, ”Brother, can you use the Heaven and Earth Authority to accurately sense the locations and movements of the top forces in the Middle World?” Xu Jin asked.

”Three-tenths isn’t nearly enough, it would only provide a very vague direction. With over five-tenths, I can generally locate them, and with six-tenths, I can pinpoint them very accurately.”

This answer gave Xu Jin a slight surprise.

He had thought others were like him.

But now it seems the Lingji Star Pattern inherited from Lingji Star Hall is quite extraordinary.

Previously, Xu Jin was somewhat bewildered and concerned.

The Warm Dream Star Pattern was researched and invented by the teacher of the State Preceptor.

But Star Patterns like the Mingji Star Pattern and the Clearing Soul Star Pattern were not.

They were Secret Star Patterns passed down from Lingji Star Hall.

And the inheritance of Mingji Star Hall originated from Emperor Jidao, doesn’t this mean that Emperor Jidao had these two Star Patterns in other domains?

The key issue is, before Kunling Domain was restricted, not to mention the Tenth Rank, there wasn’t even a Divine Dao True Intent breakthrough at the Ninth Rank.

Theoretically, the inheritance Emperor Jidao left in other domains would further propagate and enhance these Star Patterns.

Theoretically, the analysis of such would be much stronger than Kunling Domain.

By then, the advantage would be extremely obvious.

But during the elite confrontations with Hai Fen Realm, Xu Jin interrogated captives twice regarding the inheritance under Emperor Jidao’s disciples and the Star Patterns.

Sure enough, as Xu Jin expected, they knew them!

Including the Mingji Star Pattern and the Clearing Soul Star Pattern, they knew them!

Comparatively, Kunling Domain split this inheritance into four, but Hai Fen Realm retained it completely.

Yet, after detailed interrogation and obtaining multiple versions of their learned Star Patterns from the captives, Xu Jin made a surprise discovery.

The many Star Patterns inherited in Hai Fen Realm, including the special Mingji and Clearing Soul Star Patterns, all had less power than those in Kunling Domain.

And in terms of versions, the difference wasn’t small; it was a major version difference.

If Kunling Domain’s versions of Mingji and Clearing Soul Star Patterns were 6.5,

Then Hai Fen Realm’s related Star Patterns were only about 2.6, at most not exceeding 3.0.

There were many generations in between.

Initially, Xu Jin couldn’t understand why there was such a gap.

Theoretically, wouldn’t the Star Pattern versions be higher and stronger in Hai Fen Realm, which holds the complete inheritance?

But the reality was that the Star Pattern versions in Kunling Domain were far ahead, not Hai Fen Realm.

However, when Xu Jin interrogated a Second Tribulation True Monarch from Hai Fen Realm, he suddenly understood many things.

It was similar to certain directions of Blue Star earlier.

Rushing too fast, they ignored the details.

The cultivators in Hai Fen Realm, from the First Tier to the Eleventh Rank True Monarchs, held a complete inheritance.

Everyone looked towards the goal, continually cultivating, continually advancing themselves to reach higher realms.

Rarely did anyone pause to study their own inheritance.

Of course, there were exceptions.

Many cultivators in Hai Fen Realm, when reaching the Ninth Tier bottleneck or even the Tenth Rank bottleneck, would study and research, but they focused on the Law Path and Origin Rules.

Very few studied the Star Patterns themselves.

In contrast, Kunling Domain was different.

Before Kunling Domain was unsealed, its cultivation limit was actually the Eighth Tier Peak.

Even the Eighth Tier was extremely limited.

Most top talents and elites, due to resource and inheritance limitations, were stuck at the Sixth and Seventh Tiers.

Once reaching their limits, each began to focus on researching the Star Patterns themselves.

Without higher inheritance, they continually iterated, strengthened, and enriched the current inheritance Star Patterns.

This led to the powerful capabilities Xu Jin learned now.

It was like two roads: one without an end where everyone ran wildly,

the other with a visible end where cultivators focused not on length, but on width from the start.

Xu Jin and the others are now enjoying the benefits of these Star Patterns.

Such that with the same Heaven and Earth Authority effect, Xu Jin’s results are stronger than those of the Nine Tribulations True Monarch.

This was something Xu Jin had not anticipated.

”It seems that after this battle, I need to issue some critical Star Patterns forbidden inheritance orders within Kunling Domain,” Xu Jin decided instantly.

”Senior brother, I have a Secret Technique; as long as there are four-tenths of Heaven and Earth Authority, I can roughly locate the top experts within the Star Domain!

Senior brother, why don’t you give me two-tenths of your three-tenths Hai Fen Realm Heaven and Earth Authority? I’ll lead us to precise surprise attack and behead the leaders!

After returning victorious, I’ll return it to you,” Xu Jin offered with a smile.

”Junior brother always surprises me! This plan couldn’t be better.” As he spoke, senior Brother True Monarch Lei Bian handed over two-tenths of his divided Heaven and Earth Authority to Xu Jin, who immediately started refining with full force.

With Xu Jin’s current cultivation level, within less than 100 breaths, all was refined completely.

A few moments later, in the starlight of the temporary Star Gate Big Array leading to Hai Fen Realm, Xu Jin, True Monarch Lei Bian, and You Yu True Monarch simultaneously vanished.
