Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 1961: Chapter 836: Imperial Palace Saint Heir Joins the Selection

Xu Jin still greatly enjoyed Cultivation in the Kunling Domain.

That sense of safety when cultivating in the Kunling Domain was a kind of security that arose from deep within the heart.

It was a kind of security that even having a Star Monarch guarding the gate could not bring.

Along with it, his Cultivation efficiency also increased by about one tael out of ten.

Unfortunately, the good days did not last long.

Over a span of more than twenty days, Xu Jin successfully refined his seventh Lifebound Spiritual Treasure using Chaos Elemental Materials, and also barely completed the Evolution and suppression of the tenth Thunder Law Path, after which his Cultivation progress began to slow down.

After the tenth Thunder Law Path was successfully Evolved and suppressed, Xu Jin began attempting to Enlighten the eleventh Thunder Law Path.

Although it was said that once one Evolved nine Law Paths, one’s Cultivation Level could reach the Peak of Star Monarch.

Evolving nine Law Paths was the limit for an ordinary Star Monarch.

This limit, Xu Jin broke with ease, successfully Enlightening and Evolving the tenth Thunder Law Path.

But as soon as Xu Jin tried to Enlighten the eleventh Thunder Law Path, the difficulty suddenly exploded, multiplying again and again.

Not the kind of increase of just one or two times.

But an increase of three to five times.

Especially, in Xu Jin’s perception, the aid given to him by the Candou Platform suddenly became much smaller.

Only after studying for several days did Xu Jin discover where the problem lay.

It was not that the Candou Platform’s assistance had lessened, but that the Platform’s reserves had already been used up by him.

The Candou Platform’s Thunder Element Origin Stars were currently at [Initial Tier (39)].

According to Xu Jin’s understanding, it should have stored one hundred and thirty-nine strands of Thunder Element Heaven and Earth Star Will; under normal circumstances, around ten strands of Heaven and Earth Star Will could be combined into one Law Path.

Among these, there were repetitions, and there were extras.

Theoretically it could assemble thirteen Thunder Law Paths for Xu Jin.

But in reality, many Thunder Element Heaven and Earth Star Wills existed more like independent pieces, with no Law Path they could temporarily be assigned to.

Xu Jin felt it was somewhat like a kind of high-dimensional jigsaw puzzle; previously, Enlightening Law Paths under the aid of the Candou Platform had meant using the existing puzzle pieces to find and assemble a complete Law Path.

Now more and more pieces had been used up, the available pieces to choose from were fewer and fewer, even outright missing.

This should be the reason why the Candou Platform’s assistance in Enlightening Law Paths had diminished at this stage.

There was in fact only one solution: obtain more puzzle pieces.

That is, Enlighten more Heaven and Earth Star Will.

In truth, this was also the normal state for many Tenth Rank Star Monarchs in their Enlightenment and Cultivation.

Many Star Monarchs in the Dongxuan Star Realm, including the Star Monarch Su Shize whom Xu Jin knew of, had reached the Star Monarch Cultivation Level many years ago, yet still spent long periods Enlightening on Dongxuan Island.

Essentially, that Enlightenment was the act of obtaining more Heaven and Earth Star Will.

So how could one quickly obtain more Heaven and Earth Star Will?

Xu Jin thought of True Monarch Blood Crystal!

However, over in the Dongxuan Star Realm, they believed that only after one’s Cultivation Level reached a certain threshold could one use True Monarch Blood Crystal.

On this point, Xu Jin intended to carefully consult and research before using True Monarch Blood Crystal.

Though Xu Jin held many True Monarch Blood Crystals, he only had two pieces of High-grade Rank.

One was from the Nine Tribulations Hai Fen True Monarch; Hai Fen True Monarch’s main cultivation was in Ice Series, Wind Series, and Earth Series. The other was from the Seven Tribulations Thunder Horn True Monarch, whose main cultivation was Thunder Series, and thus ought not be wasted.

Aside from this, Xu Jin’s Daoist Embryo Cultivation had likewise barely reached its limit.

These twenty-some days of secluded Cultivation had still yielded quite a lot.

Not only Xu Jin; with the assistance of Xu Jin’s Candou Lamp Domain, the elites of the Kunling Domain had improved even more.

Many people had Realms far surpassing their Cultivation Level; as long as there were sufficient Cultivation Resources, their Cultivation Level could advance by leaps and bounds.

However, this quiet secluded Cultivation was interrupted on the twenty-fifth of May by the sudden shattering of two Mother-Child Heart Demon Emblems.

Before coming, Xu Jin had made an agreement with Princess Zhu Linxiao.

Crushing one piece represented an unexpected situation, but not urgent; he needed to take some time to make contact. Two pieces meant an emergency situation, requiring contact within a short period of time; three pieces meant a matter of utmost urgency, and Xu Jin needed to return at the very first moment.

Now that two pieces had shattered, that meant an emergency situation had arisen.

On the twenty-sixth, Xu Jin briefly arranged the affairs of the Kunling Domain, used his Divine Thought to sense his own Star River Island, and then activated the Thousand Star Jade Order; not long after, he had returned to his Star River Island.

At the instant of return, Xu Jin’s eyes were full of joy.

The consumption for returning had greatly decreased.

There were three reasons: first, on the Space Path side, Xu Jin had now already Evolved eight Space Law Paths, further reducing the consumption. At the same time, the power of his Space Lifebound Suppression Artifact had advanced another step under Nourishment, further lowering the consumption.

Second, after the Star Power within the Chaos Cloud Tower was directly transformed into Chaos Star Power, its endurance capacity had been greatly enhanced.

Beyond that, Xu Jin discovered that his Space Divine Power Moon Eclipse also had quite an effect here, especially the Star Sky Seals condensed from the various Star Realms, which had also reduced the consumption of Xu Jin’s long-distance relocation to a certain extent.

Under these circumstances, in this return to his Star River Island, Xu Jin had almost no need to draw Starlight from the Candou Platform to restore Star Power; relying on his own strength alone, he could complete the transmission.

Judging from this point, these three months of returning to the Kunling Domain had indeed brought extremely great harvests.

Two hours later, Xu Jin once again activated the Thousand Star Jade Order.

As Starlight flashed, Xu Jin appeared in the familiar Ritual Officer Residence of the Yutang Royal City.

After 100 breaths, Princess Zhu Linxiao stepped upon Starlight and charged inside.

Xu Jin had originally intended to ask what had happened.
