Chapter 270

Within the Fourth Tier Giant Lei Lei Xiangxing Domain.

Xu Jin flicked his fingers ten times, and in an instant, he blasted out sixteen extremely bright crimson spiral flame arrows.

The arrow light was like lightning.

The fire was Starry Sky Fire.

Of the sixteen Fourth Tier mid-to-late stage Earth Spirit aliens that suddenly appeared to surround and kill him, fifteen were directly blasted to pieces by Xu Jin.

Only one Earth Spirit alien, with an extremely sturdy physique and stone armor wrapped around its body, did not die from one arrow.

But this bulky Earth Spirit alien did not escape Xu Jin's second arrow.

This Earth Spirit alien was quite interesting.

Although they were all of the Earth Spirit clan, within the clan, according to different physiques, the star arts they practiced were also different, somewhat like classifications such as tanks, warriors, and mages.

The only remaining one with a huge physique was somewhat like a tank.

But having lost the cover of its companions, it couldn't even run away.

Although the killing was very easy, Xu Jin's expression was not relaxed.

Less than half an hour after entering the Fourth Tier Giant Stone Star Domain, Xu Jin had already encountered three waves of surprise attacks.

It was not the kind of random encounter when entering other star domains before.

In random encounters, one might encounter three or five, or hundreds.

The strength varied from strong to weak.

But since Xu Jin entered the Giant Lei Lei Xiangxing Domain, the three waves of surprise attack teams encountered were very regular.

They were all Fourth Tier aliens.

And there were more each time.

The first time they attacked Xu Jin, there were only six Fourth Tier aliens.

The second time they attacked Xu Jin, there were ten Fourth Tier aliens.

The third time they attacked Xu Jin, there were a full sixteen.

This kind of incremental, very regular attack team made Xu Jin think of a possibility.

Heavenly Authority!

The Earth Lei Lingwang of this Fourth Tier Giant Lei Lei Xiangxing Domain very likely had already obtained Heavenly Authority.

Obtained at least thirty percent of the Heavenly Star Will.

Only then could it achieve all of this.

Accurately sensing Xu Jin's location, and then constantly guiding its subordinates to go and surround and kill him.

It might even be forty percent of the Heavenly Star Will.

Now, Xu Jin had found the reason why Fang Ying's team was killed so miserably.

Under this kind of precise wave-after-wave attack, if the strength was slightly inferior, or if they didn't change direction in time, or didn't find a suitable position with geographical advantage, as long as one point was not done, Fang Ying's team would have been completely wiped out long ago.

Currently, it seems that it was not that Fang Ying's ability was too weak, but that the enemies encountered were too strong.

If Xu Jin's judgment was correct, then this Giant Lei Lei Xiangxing Domain might be the star domain with the greatest difficulty among the many star domains Xu Jin had entered so far.

Fang Ying and others even needed rescue.

Although Xu Jin had some grievances with Senior Dean Fang, now that he was on the alien star domain battlefield, he needed to abandon this.

When it was time to save, he must save.

But now there was no way to save them.

Finding five people in the vast Fourth Tier star domain was undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack.

The simplest method was for Xu Jin to kill his way into the Earth Spirit clan's Wang Cheng, enter the formation alone, and behead the Earth Lei Lingwang, and the crisis of Fang Ying and others could be resolved.

But after thinking about it, Xu Jin rejected this tactic.

If the Earth Lei Lingwang really controlled thirty or even forty percent of the Heavenly Authority, then in this world, it was an existence like a demigod.

Before Xu Jin could sneak into the Earth Spirit Wang Cheng, or even far from the city, Xu Jin would be surrounded by a massive army of the Earth Spirit clan.

Xu Jin would fall into human-sea tactics.

If the Earth Lei Lingwang led the Fifth Tier experts of the Earth Spirit clan to launch a sneak attack, and then used celestial phenomena to influence and interfere with Xu Jin, the possibility of directly killing Xu Jin was also very high.

But regardless of whether the Earth Lei Lingwang obtained thirty or forty percent of the Heavenly Star Will, Xu Jin had to find a way to kill the Earth Lei Lingwang.

Killing an Earth Lei Lingwang, the harvest would definitely be huge.

Very quickly, Xu Jin decided on a new tactic.

To kill the Earth Lei Lingwang, he must adopt a roundabout tactic.

First, he had to make the Earth Lei Lingwang's Heavenly Authority ineffective against him, at least mostly ineffective.

Otherwise, Xu Jin would be like an ant under the gaze of a giant, every move clearly seen by the Earth Lei Lingwang.

Then how to make the Earth Lei Lingwang's Heavenly Authority ineffective?

Xu Jin, who had already mastered Heavenly Authority, naturally had a method.

Only magic could deal with magic.

To counter the Heavenly Authority granted by the Heavenly Star Will, only the Heavenly Star Will could do it.

The next moment, Xu Jin turned towards the territory of the Wood Elephant clan.

Here in Great Chen, there was only simple intelligence on the Giant Lei Lei Xiangxing Domain, but before entering, the Star Spirit gave Xu Jin a very simple map.

It was just a simple directional map.

The Wood Elephant clan was in the southern part of the Giant Lei Lei Xiangxing Domain.

Xu Jin just needed to head south.

As expected, the Earth Lei Lingwang definitely mastered Heavenly Authority.

Just before Xu Jin flew into the territory of the Wood Elephant clan, he encountered the fourth surprise attack.

The strength of the fourth surprise attack was stronger than the previous three.

A full two Fifth Tier Earth Spirits, one early stage, one mid stage, and twenty Fourth Tier mid-to-late stage Earth Spirit clan members.

This lineup strength was definitely twice that of the third wave.

Normally, such a lineup would definitely have no problem wiping out a Fourth Tier First Layer human elite.

But they ran into Xu Jin.

Now that Xu Jin's cultivation had broken through to the Fourth Tier, killing Fifth Tier early-to-mid stage Earth Spirit clan members was not too easy.

Just using Starry Sky Fire, he wiped them out all the way.

Of course, for the sake of safety, Xu Jin used two "Broken Evil" on those two Fifth Tier early and mid-stage Earth Spirit clan members.

Blasting the Fifth Tier mid-stage Earth Spirit clan member was to facilitate capturing it alive.

Using it on the Fifth Tier early-stage Earth Spirit clan member was to prepare a captive; if capturing the Fifth Tier mid-stage one failed, then he would capture that one.

A breath later, this surprise attack team, except for the Fifth Tier mid-stage Earth Spirit warrior captured alive by Xu Jin, was all wiped out.

Wen Meng!

Sure enough, the information mastered by the Fifth Tier Earth Spirit clan was much more than that mastered by the Fourth Tier Earth Spirit clan.

Inside the Danxia Palace, Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao and Peng Lao were overjoyed.

If not for Kou Jing's reminder, they would not have thought it could be used this way.

"Palace Master, if this is the case, the Star Jade Tablets in our hands should still have some remaining after being used for breakthroughs. It is not impossible to help one or two more people break through," Peng Lao said happily.

"Indeed!"

In an instant, Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao and Peng Lao's expressions turned ecstatic.

In that case, the number of experts this piece of Star Jade Tablet could create would be immense.

However, it is only suitable for breaking through realms, not for improving soul cultivation.

"Peng Lao, who do you think should be given the remainder if there is any?" Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao asked while pondering.

"Left Libationer Meng Yanhui must have a quota. Meng Yanhui has served two Grand Masters, and over these years, he has managed both internal and external affairs. Although his strength has been trapped at the peak of the sixth tier for decades without breaking through, all the miscellaneous and hard work of the Dao Academy has been done by him."

"Moreover, I remember Meng Yanhui's real age should be over ninety. He suffered several serious injuries in his early years, and his lifespan will not exceed 120 years. If he is allowed to break through, the probability of him breaking through to the seventh tier will also greatly increase, and it can also extend his life," Chief Steward Peng said.

Pausing, Peng Lao added, "Yanhui is a must!"

"If there is any left, Ji Bang can also be considered. Ji Bang's lifespan is about up, and he is also trapped at the peak of the sixth tier unable to break through. If he can form a Primordial Spirit, he can also extend his life. It can also be considered a return for the Ji family's consistent support for the Grand Master over these decades."

Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao did not express an opinion, but it was clear she approved of Chief Steward Peng's idea. After pondering for a few breaths, Chief Steward Peng added, "If there is still some left, we can consider..."

"Impossible, how could we let five or six people break through," Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao laughed.

"It is also possible. In our Chen Guo, those whose age is still young and whose cultivation has reached the ninth layer of the fourth tier, apart from you, Palace Master, there are none. The others whose soul cultivation is trapped at the peak of the ninth layer of the fourth tier are mostly around a hundred years old, not too far from their lifespan limit."

"Being able to break through one more counts as one more," Peng Lao said.

"That is natural, but for now, you should hurry inside and break through! Once you break through, I will be at ease," Cheng Yuexiao laughed.

Immediately, Peng Lao held a Star Jade Tablet and walked into the back hall, with Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao personally guarding him. After more than half an hour, after the majestic soul fluctuations surged, Peng Lao walked out smiling.

Just by taking one look, Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao was startled.

Peng Lao's hair and beard were still white, but his complexion was completely different.

Before this, the white-haired Peng Lao gave people a sense of deep twilight; although his face was full of flesh, there were many wrinkles, his eyes were somewhat turbid, and his vitality was low.

But at this very moment, after his soul cultivation broke through to the fifth tier and formed a Primordial Spirit, Peng Lao's hair and beard were still white, but that deep sense of twilight had completely disappeared, replaced by a vibrant vitality.

That feeling was like a dying seedling suffering from drought, suddenly encountering spring rain, recovering its vitality overnight.

His face was full of flesh, and as the newly formed Primordial Spirit began to nourish his physical body, the wrinkles on his face were decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

If one looked at his back, he had directly transformed from a piece of rotting wood about to die into a vibrant, towering tree.

If his hair were dyed black, some would believe he was sixty years old.

Feeling the change in Peng Lao's aura, Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao smiled sincerely.

Peng Lao's lifespan problem was solved, and the mountain pressing on her heart finally disappeared.

Her worries had been mostly eliminated.

"Palace Master, just as Senior Dean Kou Jing said, this Primordial Spirit truly has infinite wonders."

"Once formed, the world is already different."

"The Fire Source Star Patterns of the eighth tier that I could not comprehend before, I suddenly understand a few parts of them now," Peng Lao said.

Hearing this, Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao laughed even more heartily, "It seems the probability of Peng Lao breaking through to the eighth tier has increased by a few points."

"Indeed!"

"But even if I don't break through to the eighth tier, my combat power at this time has also made significant progress. If I encounter an incident similar to Hu Zhen before, I can also hold my own."

"I can also resist experts at the early stage of the eighth tier," Peng Lao said.

"Hahaha, good, good!"

"Too good!"

"Just waiting for Peng Lao to break through, I will never have to be as restrained as before," Cheng Yuexiao said.

As Peng Lao nodded, he handed over a jade tablet, "Palace Master, I used sixty percent of the stock in the jade tablet when I broke through, and forty percent remains, approximately equivalent to the medicinal power of nearly 45 Dragon Turtle Soul-Forging Pills."

"Good, with what you and Senior Dean Kou have left, it is enough to help at least one more person."

"There is no time to lose, Palace Master, you should also break through as soon as possible. Break through early, be at ease early," Peng Lao urged.

"Also true, I will go now."

After speaking, Cheng Yuexiao went to the back hall and began to absorb the soul power in the jade tablet directly. Only half an hour later, majestic soul fluctuations rose in the back hall, but for some reason, the movement when Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao completely formed her Primordial Spirit lasted longer than Kou Jing and Peng Lao's.

It lasted for a full quarter of an hour before it ended.

A quarter of an hour later, Cheng Yuexiao came out from the back hall, glowing with health, and her entire person looked like she was shining!

More gentle, more introverted, but her aura was also more unfathomable.

"Congratulations, Palace Master."

Cheng Yuexiao nodded with a smile, "Sure enough, once the Primordial Spirit is formed, the world is indeed different. Many of the puzzles I had when studying star patterns before were suddenly solved, and I even mastered them thoroughly."

"It seems the Palace Master can deduce a few more star patterns," Peng Lao laughed.

"That is inevitable! However, since I have broken through, Peng Lao, you should make a trip to the Wood Spirit Palace personally this time to trade for the Thunder Source Star Patterns for Xu Jin. Primary Star Healing must be brought along; as for the others, Peng Lao, bring back whatever you can," Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao instructed.

"Good, I will go now."

A few breaths later, Chief Steward Peng stepped directly into the Star-Plucking Tower and left through a star gate.

Cheng Yuexiao looked at the three jade tablets in her hand and began to calculate.

When she broke through, she only used forty-five percent of the soul power in that jade tablet, and fifty-five percent remained.

Three Star Jade Tablets: one with thirty percent soul power remaining, one with forty percent, and one with fifty-five percent. As long as luck is not too bad, combined with two Dragon Turtle Soul-Forging Pills, there is no problem in helping two people succeed.

If luck is good, there might even be some left.

Looking at the direction of the Star-Plucking Tower, Meng Yanhui was still on duty, and Dai Guanwen was also there; it was not easy to call them away.

Then let's invite Ji Bang over first. Now that there is an opportunity, it is time to properly repay the Ji family.

While pondering, Cheng Yuexiao sent a starlight message to Ji Bang, the Dean of the Chen Guo Wanyi Dao Academy.

【Uncle Ji, come quickly.】

Summoned by the Grand Master, even though Ji Bang was a senior, he still rushed over at the fastest speed.

Moreover, Ji Bang had always been respectful to Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao.

"Grand Master, I don't know why you summoned me?" Ji Bang asked after rushing over hurriedly.

Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao smiled and was not in a hurry to speak, but asked with a smile, "I remember Uncle Ji is 105 years old this year, right?"

Stroking his half-white beard, Ji Bang said in surprise, "Why is the Grand Master concerned about my age? I am considered a senior brother to your master, seven years older than your master. By age, I am 108 this year."

"However, there is no problem in serving Chen Guo for another twenty or thirty years."

"Why, does the Grand Master think I am old?"

"How could that be!"

Cheng Yuexiao laughed, "Uncle Ji is 108. If my master were still here, he would also be 101 years old."

Hearing this, Ji Bang's expression became desolate, but Cheng Yuexiao added, "I wonder what wishes Uncle Ji has now?"

"Wishes?"

Ji Bang pondered for a while, feeling that Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao seemed to have something in her words, and then slowly said, "Wishes?"

"I only wish for Chen Guo to be prosperous and peaceful, and for the national strength to reach a higher level under the Grand Master's leadership. Oh, and my most precious little granddaughter, I hope to see her break through to the sixth tier in my lifetime, then I will be at ease."

"Uncle Ji hasn't considered it for yourself?"

"Consider what?"

"For example, extending your life?"

Hearing this, Ji Bang smiled bitterly, "I would like to!"

"Unfortunately, my comprehension and breakthroughs in the Water, Metal, and Wind elements have all failed. The Fire element conflicts too much with my main Water element, so I don't want to comprehend it. As for comprehending the Earth element, below the seventh tier, the probability of breaking through is too low."

"As for forming a Primordial Spirit, Grand Master, you haven't broken through for so many years, and Peng Lao even less so. What do I have to break through with!"

"Breaking through the Primordial Spirit is too difficult..."

Just as he was speaking, Ji Bang's expression suddenly froze and stayed still.

He saw a cluster of brilliance suddenly emerge from Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao's head, which was a small version of Cheng Yuexiao, smiling and bowing to him.

"Grand Master, you... you broke through?"

"You formed a Primordial Spirit!"

"Exactly."

Cheng Yuexiao nodded. While Ji Bang congratulated her, he suddenly froze again.

Ji Bang had been in the officialdom for so long, and his age was here.

At this moment, he had already thought that Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao calling him over urgently certainly wouldn't be for the sake of showing off her Primordial Spirit to him.

If Cheng Yuexiao were that stupid, Chen Guo would have perished long ago!

Then...

Thinking of a certain possibility, Ji Bang's heart trembled.

If that were really the case, he might really be able to extend his life!

Able to live!

Who is willing to die?

The next moment, Cheng Yuexiao had already slapped two Star Jade Tablets into Ji Bang's hands and told Ji Bang the relevant usage methods.

"This... this is too precious! Grand Master, you must have paid a huge price to get these, right?"

"I didn't get them."

"Hmm, then this is?" Now, it was Ji Bang's turn to be surprised.

"The specific details are inconvenient to say more, but whether it is me or you, Uncle Ji, you only need to remember Xu Jin's kindness."

"This was obtained by Xu Jin with great effort and through life-and-death, and he specifically named that it be shared among a few of us!" Cheng Yuexiao said.

"Xu Jin?"

"Specifically named?"

Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao's short sentence contained a massive amount of information, leaving Ji Bang stunned on the spot.

Such a precious item, Xu Jin actually specifically named that it be given to him, this...

After a long while, Ji Bang thought of a certain possibility and nodded gently.

"Grand Master, I won't say words of thanks. But this great favor from you and this kid Xu Jin, I, Ji Bang, accept it!"

"I will borrow the main hall, and I ask the Grand Master to guard me."

After speaking, Ji Bang took the two jade tablets and walked directly into the back hall.

(End of chapter)

Moreover, the entrance to this cave was narrow, and rushing in would inevitably be blasted.

Xu Jin took it all.

However, the concentrated fire of the five people only made Xu Jin's Fish Screen Golden Bell fluctuate a few times, and then there was no movement at all.

"Stop!"

Xu Jin gave a sharp shout, even using a little bit of Divine Tiger Roar, to make the crowd completely sober up.

"Junior Brother Xu, you really came!" Fang Ying was both embarrassed and pleasantly surprised.

That was truly a pleasant surprise.

In this world, there was nothing more pleasantly surprising than encountering reinforcements in a desperate situation.

Although they didn't get along very well.

But at this moment, Fang Ying called him as affectionately as he could!

"Senior brothers, the Wood Elephant aliens surrounding and attacking you outside have already been killed by me. You should hurry up and recover first," Xu Jin said.

"Killed them all?

You killed them all?

Alone?" Fang Ying questioned subconsciously.

Xu Jin didn't speak, just moved aside from the cave passage.

A few breaths later, Fang Ying and others who walked out looked at the corpses all over the ground, and the look they gave Xu Jin was like looking at a monster.

At this time, someone remembered that the concentrated fire of the five of them just now didn't even cause Xu Jin to suffer a single injury.

You know, the concentrated fire of the five of them, even if a Fifth Tier mid-stage alien was hit, it would have to be injured.

But Xu Jin...

Realizing this, everyone couldn't help but be horrified!

"Everyone, go into the cave and hurry up to recover."

When the five people walked back into the cave and started taking elixirs to recover, Xu Jin gave each of them a "Wen Meng".

Let them recover quickly.

Subsequently, Xu Jin also gave himself a "Wen Meng".

Next, he was going to the Earth Spirit Wang Cheng. Previously, when he was at the Wood Elephant Wang Cheng, he consumed a lot, so he must restore his soul power to its peak state.

Three quarters of an hour later, Xu Jin, who had recovered to his peak state, woke up Fang Ying and others, and then handed each of them a Fifth Tier emblem for them to use to save their lives.

Seeing the emblem on the Fifth Tier, Fang Ying knew the preciousness of this thing and became even more excited.

With five emblems on the Fifth Tier, their lives could be considered guaranteed.

"Junior Brother Xu, don't worry, when we go back, we will definitely return it to you."

"Hmm."

Xu Jin didn't refuse either.

This was given to him by the Grand Master, not said to be given to them.

If they came to return it, Xu Jin would naturally accept it.

As for the matter of conquering the Fourth Tier Giant Lei Lei Xiangxing Domain, Xu Jin didn't mention it.

Xu Jin's "Wen Meng" just now just let the five people's soul power recover quickly and relieved their fatigue.

But the injuries on their bodies were still there.

Among the five, one was seriously injured, and two others had injuries that were not light; they wouldn't be able to recover in a few days.

Relying on them, I'm afraid they couldn't conquer the Giant Lei Lei Xiangxing Domain.

They could only take it one step at a time and see the Grand Master's arrangements.

An hour later, Xu Jin quietly sneaked to the outside of the Earth Spirit Wang Cheng.

The Earth Lei Lingwang still hadn't discovered Xu Jin.

Because the current Xu Jin was a native of the Giant Lei Lei Xiangxing Domain through and through, and he himself had twenty percent Heavenly Authority.

Plus, he used invisibility to completely hide his aura.

It was normal for the Earth Lei Lingwang not to be able to discover Xu Jin's sneaking in.

It was just that the Earth Lei Lingwang might have sensed something, and the entire Earth Spirit Wang Cheng was on high alert.

There was a post every ten steps, and there was a patrol team every kilometer.

When approaching the inner city of the Wang Cheng, the patrol teams had already been replaced by Fifth Tier experts.

This was simply cautious to the extreme.

But Xu Jin still found a loophole, followed the patrol team, and quietly sneaked into the inner city of the Wang Cheng.

As Xu Jin sneaked in, the Earth Lei Lingwang became increasingly uneasy.

Especially the increasingly strong sense of crisis lingering in his heart made the Earth Lei Lingwang very uneasy, but he couldn't find the source of the uneasiness.

Suddenly, the Earth Lei Lingwang, who was pacing back and forth, felt something strange beside him. The moment he turned around, he saw a human alien suddenly appear on the other side of the palace!

It was Xu Jin, who had actively revealed his figure after sneaking in.

The Earth Lei Lingwang's eyes widened suddenly. The moment he was about to call his elites to surround and kill him, he saw a strange light flash in Xu Jin's eyes, and the world before his eyes changed, starlight flowed, and he entered another world!

Killing Dream!
