Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 2008: Chapter 859: The Limit and Swimming Fish’s Appointment

Xu Jin found that he had obtained more Acquired Star Essence of various series than he had imagined.

For example, the Fire Series.

Before the breakthrough, Xu Jin had enlightened and evolved the suppression of sixteen Law Paths. According to the rules explored by numerous predecessors, one Law Path can obtain about ten Acquired Star Essence.

This gap in approximation is also one.

At least nine, at most eleven.

Theoretically, the Acquired Essence Power Xu Jin obtained for the Fire Series should be around one hundred sixty, not exceeding one hundred seventy-six.

But by the end of Heaven and Earth’s gift, the total number of Acquired Essence Power Xu Jin obtained for the Fire Series reached two hundred twenty-six.

The average gift per Law Path was above fourteen.

Of course, it was not unprecedented.

Heaven and Earth’s gift is also influenced by the Lifebound Star, the weakest being the Small World, the best being the Great World.

However, under normal circumstances, even if the Lifebound Star is a Great World, the gift from Heaven and Earth for each Law Path will not exceed twelve.

What Xu Jin obtained was as high as fourteen.

Xu Jin thought that this was greatly involved with his Lifebound Star Spirit Brilliance Great World.

In the Great World, Spirit Brilliance’s life aura is also top-tier, even several times that of many Great Worlds!

Some manifestations are quite normal.

It’s the time for harvest now.

The Acquired Fire Essence condensed into the Acquired Fire Essence Source Pearl, without a doubt, is of Super Rank.

However, even among Super Ranks, there are differences.

National Master Cheng Yuxiao’s Acquired Thunder Essence Source Pearl is only the size of an egg, whereas Xu Jin’s Acquired Fire Essence Source Pearl is as big as a fist.

The differences soon became apparent.

The Acquired Fire Star Force converted within the Fire Series Star Tower was noticeably stronger than the related Star Power converted by other series of Star Towers.

The originally normal red-colored Leaving Fire had now become so dense that it was almost black, with a hint of black within the scarlet flame.

Compared to the Fire Series, other series were somewhat weaker.

Next was the Thunder Series, comprising thirteen Law Paths, with a total of one hundred eighty-two Acquired Thunder Essences obtained.

Earth, Water, Wood, and Metal had ten Law Paths each, with Acquired Essence Power obtained numbered around one hundred forty.

Space and Wind had nine Law Paths each, obtaining Acquired Essence Power totaling one hundred twenty-six.

All the Acquired Essence Source Pearls condensed within the Star Towers were Super Rank.

One could even say they were supreme among the Super Ranks, but the strongest one was the Fire Series.

Xu Jin merely needed to sense with his Divine Thought to find that his Fire Series was the strongest within his Star Power.

Of course, this was just an internal comparison by Xu Jin himself.

Compared to others, even taking out the weakest Wind Series would be overwhelming.

Under inner vision, the Chaos Cloud Tower along with eight Star Towers saw their Star Power rapidly transforming, with the Star Towers being continuously refined and strengthened through the resonance of Law Paths.

Once refining and strengthening were complete, Xu Jin would thoroughly break through to the Tenth Rank.

Normally, cultivators typically complete their breakthrough in two or three two-hour periods, though Xu Jin estimated he would need a bit longer.

But what intrigued Xu Jin most internally was the transformation of the Chaos Cloud Tower.

Previously during the breakthrough process of the Eight Stars uniting the All-Series Law Paths, the Chaos Cloud Tower had been washed the most, and at first glance, there seemed to be no change.

But the chaotic aura became increasingly dense.

Especially the Chaos Star Power within the Cloud Tower, which felt significantly stronger than before, though not to the extent of becoming Chaos Star Fiend.

Besides, during the recent breakthrough process, Xu Jin discovered that the breakthrough of Chaos Unity had allowed all eight of his Star Towers to be tinged with a hint of chaotic aura.

Only tinged with chaotic aura, but any changes are yet to be seen.

The strengthening at this moment is completely an automatic process.

Bored from waiting, Xu Jin simply invoked Chaos Rhythm Power to begin Body Refining and continue refining the Great Chaos Spirit Body.

Soon after starting Body Refining, Xu Jin’s gaze moved, a touch of joy flashing in his eyes.

Possibly due to the chaos aura tinging all eight Star Towers, his Star Power actually carried a hint of chaotic aura.

Very weak.

But in the Body Refining process, it was very effective.

Directly boosting his refining intensity substantially.

Body Refining progress also increased dramatically.

In just one day’s refining, Xu Jin was already able to endure refining with diluted ten percent Chaos Rhythm Power.

The progress increased rapidly.

Xu Jin felt that he was not far from successfully cultivating the Great Chaos Spirit Body.

”Not completed yet?”

Even with a day’s Body Refining, the transformation and strengthening of Star Power in Star Towers through Acquired Source Pearls and Law Paths was still unfinished, which surprised Xu Jin.

His Divine Thought sank again.

Upon sinking in, he immediately focused his gaze.

”So little left...”

Looking at the much-reduced Star Power in the Star Towers, Xu Jin was stupefied.

The Star Towers, originally filled to capacity, now only had two to three-tenths remaining.

Inside the Star Towers, it was empty, all spaces for cultivating Star Power yet to be developed.

This kind of feeling seemed to have shrunk his cultivation level directly by seventy to eighty percent.

After careful assessment, Xu Jin understood that this was not the case.

His cultivation level or Star Power had not shrunk.

His cultivation level remained as before, slightly stronger even.

The difference lay in the Star Towers becoming too strong.

And extremely strong at that.

Still, it wasn’t over.

For example, if Xu Jin’s original Star Tower could accommodate an upper limit of one thousand, now it is four thousand.

The cultivation level hasn’t changed; it’s the upper limit that has increased.

”Under normal circumstances, Little Star Monarch enhancement couldn’t possibly be this strong?”

Frowning, Xu Jin suddenly realized.

His current state wasn’t that of a Little Star Monarch.

It was that of a Star Monarch.

And it was the kind of realm of a Star Monarch that had broken limits multiple times.

But only the internal realm in terms of Law Paths achieved this; the external bodily Star Power hadn’t reached it.

Enlightening seven or more individual Law Paths, the cultivation level breaks through to Star Monarch.

Most Tenth Rank Star Monarchs’ process of cultivation improvement is actually like this: gaining enlightenment of some Law Path, which then begins to refine and strengthen one’s Star Tower, elevating the Star Power limit, followed by continuous cultivation and increase in cultivation level, with the passage of time, one after another, both cultivation level and limit are continuously pushed higher.

It is extremely rare for someone like Xu Jin, who has comprehended over a dozen Law Paths before breaking through.

This leads to a breakthrough where those dozen Law Paths start continually refining Xu Jin’s Star Tower, constantly raising his Star Power limit.

Significantly boosting Xu Jin’s cultivation level limit within a short period.

However, the cultivation level itself has not kept up.

This results in the extraordinary scene before you.

”In that case, my Realm has reached the limit of a Star Monarch, it’s just my cultivation level that hasn’t kept up! Next, I only need to do one thing!

Continuously enhance Star Power cultivation, keep increasing until it reaches the limit!

Then, my cultivation level will reach the limit of a Star Monarch...”

While pondering, Xu Jin made a judgment.

Going through it again, the judgment is still the same!

If so, Xu Jin reaching the cultivation level of a Star Monarch is just a matter of time.

With sufficient cultivation resources, it won’t take long to achieve.

For Xu Jin, the next stage of cultivation will be plain sailing!

Just as Xu Jin was rejoicing, the Star Tower within him continued to be refined and strengthened, and the cultivation level limit continued to rise.

*****

On July 27th, at the Imperial Palace of Shisong Star Realm.

True Monarch Lin Yue, True Monarch Jishu, True Monarch Jingtu, True Monarch Heiyu and several other True Monarchs were quietly waiting.

Suddenly, Starlight condensed on the throne of the Emperor of the Realm, and Emperor Xuan Shuang’s starlight phantom appeared.

Upon seeing his subordinate True Monarchs, Emperor Xuan Shuang was somewhat displeased, ”Today is not the day of the Imperial Court meeting, what do you seek audience for?”

After exchanging glances, True Monarch Lin Yue stepped forward to salute, ”Reporting to the Emperor, You Yu, the Heavenly Patrol True Monarch appointed by the Headquarters, arrived today, and is about to take charge of the Heavenly Patrol Hall, we have come to seek instruction.”

”Instruction?”

Emperor Xuan Shuang sneered, ”Your disciples embarrassed themselves last time, and now you’re seeking my instruction, intending for me to send my disciples to battle?

I tell you, no!

You can act as you please.

But my direct disciples cannot act.

If I take action, the nature changes.

One Fenghua, I’m naturally not afraid.

But if Fenghua and that woman Duyue join forces, even within the Shisong Star Realm, I struggle somewhat.”

After speaking, Emperor Xuan Shuang grew more and more angry, nearly pointing at their noses and scolding, ”Look at you, each of you usually prides yourself on wisdom, and each wants their disciples hailed as unparalleled geniuses in front of me, despite my generous rewards numerous times.

In the end, what kind of trash disciples have you nurtured.

All got trampled by You Yu’s disciples!

You should step up yourselves, my direct disciples cannot be sent.”

Emperor Xuan Shuang grew increasingly upset as he scolded.

They and You Yu, in truth, are all from the Shisong Star Realm, merely differing in cultivation concepts and methods, leading to an irreconcilable enmity.

Fortunately, he embarked on the Emperor Path, suppressing You Yu True Monarch overwhelmingly, eventually forcing him to leave the homeland.

Unexpectedly, he was sent back by the Headquarters!

To Emperor Xuan Shuang, this is typical Machiavellianism, even a move by the Rotating Alliance Leader or that elusive Alliance Leader!

Being harshly scolded by the Emperor, the True Monarchs naturally dared not argue.

Bearing the scolding dutifully, True Monarch Lin Yue then whispered, ”Emperor, previously we obtained intelligence that You Yu True Monarch this time, assumes office alone, his disciples have not come.”

”The disciples haven’t come?”

Emperor Xuan Shuang froze, then suddenly sat upright, ”If they didn’t come why are you coming to me!

You are all Eight Tribulation, Seven Tribulation True Monarchs, and lived all your lives like fools!

Go and beat him!

As soon as he steps out of the Heavenly Patrol True Monarch Mansion, beat him back!”

”Emperor, we understand! But we seek audience to inquire about a degree.” True Monarch Lin Yue said.

”Degree?”

Emperor Xuan Shuang immediately understood True Monarch Lin Yue’s meaning.

To what extent to beat him!

After all, behind You Yu True Monarch stands Emperor Fenghua, who is one among the Thousand Star Alliance leaders, and Duyue Emperor must be added.

”Degree? Do you intend to kill this You Yu?”

”Emperor, there is no logic to be a thief for a thousand days without defensive measures!

Even if we kill this You Yu bastard until he can’t step out of the Heavenly Patrol True Monarch Mansion but ultimately he has people reporting to him! If he manages to find something, and reports it to the Headquarters, it will become troublesome!”

As he spoke, True Monarch Lin Yue glanced at True Monarch Jishu, True Monarch Jingtu, and True Monarch Heiyu present.

Counting himself, they number four, all at the Eight Tribulation True Monarch cultivation level at this moment.

Very strong!

Yet also formidable!

”Indeed, only being a thief for a thousand days has logic!

But with Fenghua and Duyue there, coupled with his position as the Heavenly Patrol True Monarch, truly getting killed during a sparring match cannot be justified!

Fenghua and Duyue will definitely ask people from the Law Enforcement Hall to come!

The killer surely won’t end well.

At that time, the Emperor from the Law Enforcement Hall will surely come personally, the trouble may be even greater.”

Emperor Xuan Shuang pondered, a face full of annoyance.

Who on earth threw this troublemaker You Yu here, it directly infuriated him.

Cannot kill, cannot drive away, yet stubbornly hard!

”Emperor, during our last encounter, we discovered You Yu’s disposition hasn’t changed much!” True Monarch Jishu suddenly spoke.

”What do you mean?”

”You Yu seems still quite impetuous! Last time he let his disciple at the peak of Ninth Rank fight against our Star Monarch level disciple!”

”Didn’t you lose, they were confident!” Emperor Xuan Shuang glared.

But then, Emperor Xuan Shuang stroke his short beard, ”But this may be a way!

If you can get You Yu to fall for deception and leave some evidence!

Then kill him!

I suppose then, Fenghua can’t say anything!” Emperor Xuan Shuang instructed.

”Subordinates understand!” The True Monarchs rejoiced.
