Chapter 481: Discoveries After the Miracle

Even when re-entering the treasury and looking at the Star Jade Tablets piled up like a mountain, Xu Jin still felt a tremor in his heart.

The wealth seized from the four Eighth-Tier powerhouses of the Profound Heaven Star Palace was almost exceeding the sum of all the wealth Xu Jin had obtained previously.

There were over a hundred thousand Fourth-Tier Star Jade Tablets, which were likely scraps; the most numerous were the Fifth-Tier Star Jade Tablets, with a total of over fifty thousand, most of which came from the First Elder, Sun Sun Xianzu.

As for the Sixth-Tier Star Jade Tablets, Xu Jin had obtained a total of over 1,600.

This was the time Xu Jin had obtained the largest number of Sixth-Tier Star Jade Tablets.

Previously, the number of Sixth-Tier Star Jade Tablets in Xu Jin's hands had never exceeded one thousand.

Regarding Seventh-Tier Star Jade Tablets, Xu Jin had obtained 104.

Among them, over ninety were obtained from the First Elder, Sun Sun Xianzu.

When Xu Jin obtained Seventh-Tier Star Jade Tablets in the past, they were always in the single digits.

Only from the Eighth-Tier alien Ju Chu Xuan had he obtained over twenty.

Up to now, the number of Seventh-Tier Star Jade Tablets obtained from the First Elder, Sun Sun Xianzu, was the highest.

This brought the number of Seventh-Tier Star Jade Tablets in Xu Jin's hands to 135.

At the same time, it also meant that Xu Jin could use Seventh-Tier Star Jade Tablets to cultivate.

Although the Sixth-Tier Star Gathering Array had no progress yet, the Fifth-Tier Star Gathering Array could also use Seventh-Tier Star Jade Tablets.

However, the Fifth-Tier Star Gathering Array could only draw upon the star power within five Star Jade Tablets at the same time.

Using higher-tier Star Jade Tablets could also compensate for this.

In a short period, Xu Jin's cultivation base could advance once more.

However, this wealth was only the most basic.

There were over a hundred pieces of various Fifth-Tier heavenly treasures.

They were just right for Xu Jin to rapidly strengthen his star patterns and forge his Eight-Cornered Cloud Tower.

As for Fifth-Tier divine soul-type spiritual medicines, Xu Jin searched through them and discovered eleven pieces, nine of which were found with the First Elder, Sun Sun Xianzu.

The reason there were so many was mainly because the First Elder, Sun Sun Xianzu's primordial spirit cultivation was already useless when taking ordinary Fifth-Tier divine soul-type medicines, so he had kept so many.

Even with Xu Jin's current divine soul cultivation, taking Fifth-Tier divine soul spiritual medicines was useless.

But after being nourished, they could still have an effect.

Because of this, after Xu Jin searched through the Sixth-Tier divine soul spiritual medicines, he only found one.

Xu Jin estimated that Sun Sun Xianzu should have possessed more than one, but they should have all been consumed.

And this last Sixth-Tier divine soul-type spiritual medicine, the Water Cloud Soul Marrow, should have been kept by Sun Sun Xianzu for emergencies or prepared for treatment when his primordial spirit was injured.

At this moment, however, it benefited Xu Jin.

The number of Fifth-Tier and Sixth-Tier star artifacts was also not small, totaling twenty-four pieces.

For Eighth-Tier powerhouses, these were just ordinary items.

What caught Xu Jin's attention, however, were two Seven-Star spiritual treasures.

One mid-grade Seven-Star spiritual armor and one mid-grade Seven-Star spiritual shield; their ranks were not high.

The high-ranking ones had all been used by themselves.

Xu Jin didn't care for those that were neither high nor low, but they were good for gifting to others.

After searching a round, the Eight-Star spiritual treasures that Xu Jin desperately wanted were nowhere to be found.

Thinking about it, it made sense; if there really were Eight-Star spiritual treasures, these few would have already used them.

If Xu Jin wanted to kill them, the difficulty would have been even greater.

There were hundreds of bottles of various kinds of elixirs, one-third of which were Dragon Turtle Soul-Forging Pills, along with some strange elixirs that Xu Jin did not recognize.

This included some Fifth-Tier and Sixth-Tier emblems, which should have been for emergencies or usually bestowed upon juniors.

But as for the life-saving Spatial Shift Emblems, the four of them contributed a full fourteen to Xu Jin.

Sun Sun Xianzu alone had eight.

It was a pity there was no chance to use them.

Xu Jin didn't need them himself, but they were very suitable for gifting to others.

Following that, there were a large number of Star Jade Tablets recording some events or cultivation insights.

Xu Jin sank his mind into them one by one, and after going through them all, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

These were likely the true priceless treasures.

Cultivation insights.

Twelve Star Jade Tablets recorded the cultivation insights of these four Eighth-Tier powerhouses, and there were even three tablets on insights for deducing and learning star patterns.

Especially these three, Xu Jin read them carefully several times and gained a lot.

Although he didn't learn any star patterns, he learned the evolutionary laws of the Profound Heaven Star Palace's main combat star patterns.

With Xu Jin's level, seeing a spot allowed him to know the whole picture.

There were several aspects that brought Xu Jin new directions.

So star patterns could be deduced this way.

Many puzzles in deducing star patterns were solved instantly.

But the most precious were the four Eighth-Tier cultivation insights.

These were the daily cultivation insights of these four Eighth-Tier powerhouses after breaking through to the Eighth Tier.

They were exceptionally precious.

Just reading them once could allow Xu Jin to avoid many pitfalls in his future cultivation.

Especially Sun Sun Xianzu's cultivation insights, which were very precious.

Sun Sun Xianzu had excellent talent and had the guidance of famous teachers, but from the Seventh Tier to the Eighth Tier, he had stumbled along the way and stepped into many pitfalls.

Many pitfalls, once stepped into, were very difficult to compensate for.

For example, the choice of the natal star when breaking through to the Seventh Tier.

At that time, because breaking through was very difficult, and in order to break through quickly, after sensing a star, he immediately chose it and then broke through with the momentum.

But after reaching the Eighth Tier, he discovered that the natal star he had chosen was only a small world star, which was a low-grade star.

This directly determined the upper limit of his combat power after the Eighth Tier.

This kind of self-review cultivation insight was the top secret of every Eighth-Tier powerhouse, and it was not given to anyone other than personal disciples.

Like the Grand Master's cultivation insights, currently, they were only given to two people: Xu Jin and Peng Lao.

And the Grand Master clearly had not stepped into Sun Sun Xianzu's pitfalls!

After thinking about it, Xu Jin directly recorded a copy of Sun Sun Xianzu's cultivation insights, preparing to send it to the Academy Head, Dong Zhao, who had already begun preparing to break through to the Seventh Tier.

Of course, the Grand Master would not be left out either.

"Directory of Star Domains Controlled by the Star Palace"

When he discovered the title of the content recorded in one of the Star Jade Tablets, Xu Jin was greatly shocked.

This Star Jade Tablet also came from Sun Sun Xianzu, but the content recorded was the directory of star domains conquered and controlled by the Profound Heaven Star Palace.

Just by glancing at it, Xu Jin confirmed that, just as the Grand Master had said, the Profound Heaven Star Palace had hidden more than half in this regard.

They publicly claimed to have conquered only nine star domains and controlled only five.

But the list here showed that they had conquered a full twenty-one star domains and controlled a full twelve.

This was far higher than the star domains currently controlled by Chen Guo.

However, compared to the number of star domains currently controlled and conquered by Chen Guo, it was still a bit behind.

Moreover, it was not just a directory.

This jade tablet recorded the output of each star domain conquered and controlled by the Profound Heaven Star Palace, the characteristics of the aliens, the garrison forces, etc., in great detail.

This intelligence was almost digging out the Profound Heaven Star Palace's bottom line.

Although it might not be everything, with this directory, if Chen Guo targeted them in the future, the Profound Heaven Star Palace would have a hard time.

Besides this, this directory also recorded the characteristics of three Seventh-Tier star domains.

All of them were Seventh-Tier star domains that the Profound Heaven Star Palace had attempted to attack and control but failed.

Seventh-Tier star domains were still a bit distant for the current Xu Jin.

So he only glanced at them and did not intend to study them in detail.

But before his mind left, he suddenly saw a line of remarks.

"The advance team discovered the Eighth-Tier spiritual medicine, Golden Leaf Blood Ginseng, in the Seventh-Tier Flower Valley Star Domain. This ginseng can bring the dead back to life, regrow flesh on bones, and regrow severed limbs. The efficacy has been verified. Unfortunately, the entire army was wiped out. If there is an opportunity in the future, the Seventh-Tier Flower Valley Star Domain will be a key star domain to conquer."

This line of remarks made Xu Jin's eyes shine.

Whether in the current world, the Star River Battlefield, or various star domains, Xu Jin had been searching for heavenly treasures capable of regrowing severed limbs.

After searching for so long, he only generally knew that individual Seventh-Tier or Eighth-Tier spiritual medicines had this divine power.

But what specific spiritual medicine it was and which star domain it was in, he had no clue.

Now, he had finally obtained specific information. In all things, the fear is having no goal.

With a goal, things were easy to handle.

After organizing this harvest, Xu Jin felt some emotion.

The cultivation resources in his hands were now massive.

If there were nothing else, these massive cultivation resources would be enough for Xu Jin to cultivate with all his might and break through his cultivation base to the Seventh Tier.

It was estimated that within two to three years, Xu Jin's cultivation base would definitely be able to break through to the Seventh Tier.

By then, the affairs of the world would be easier.

If Xu Jin wanted to be faster, he would have to find a Sixth-Tier or Sixth-Tier Star Gathering Array, or that kind of star power array that could detonate many low-tier Star Jade Tablets at once and gather the star power together for Xu Jin to cultivate.

In that case, the hundreds of thousands of Star Jade Tablets in Xu Jin's hands could come in handy.

And they could be consumed rapidly.

Unfortunately, there was no progress yet.

Of course, it was not that there was no progress.

Xu Jin himself had a bold inference that perhaps that place had it, but in a short time, it was impossible for Xu Jin and that place to have any connection.

The next instant, Xu Jin's mind moved, and he appeared instantly above the Seven Kill Palace in the Seven Kill Star Domain.

The real Seven Kill Palace had been refined by Xu Jin, but Xu Jin used the authority of heaven and earth to create a Seven Kill Palace out of thin air.

The moment Xu Jin appeared, his mind only moved slightly, and in an instant, his true body manifested to a hundred feet, with ten thousand feet of golden light, as if a true god had descended.

The tens of thousands of humans and aliens who were building residential areas around the Seven Kill Palace were all shocked when they saw this scene.

Especially the youths and aliens who had been rescued by Xu Jin from the Sixth-Tier Fallen Plum Star Domain earlier, seeing this familiar scene, one by one they immediately knelt and worshipped in Xu Jin's direction, calling him a god!

People have a tendency to follow the crowd.

Especially Xu Jin's appearance with ten thousand feet of golden light, which was exceptionally shocking, truly looking like a god.

The craftsmen sent by the Grand Master, as well as the captives and their families from the Heavenly Sun Star Palace sent recently, whether shocked, horrified, or following the crowd, all knelt and worshipped in the direction where Xu Jin appeared.

They called him all sorts of names.

In any case, they couldn't leave the word "god."

This sudden scene shocked the Grand Commander of the Seven Kill Star Domain, Hou Hou Yunzhang, as well as the Deputy Commander Tan Zhi, and Zhong Wei, Ye Ye Yanfeng, and others recruited by Hou Hou Yunzhang.

Some individuals, in their shock, actually knelt down as well.

Xu Jin's original intention was just to strengthen control and deter everyone.

Especially after the war with the Heavenly Sun Star Palace this time, Chen Guo had captured over ten thousand people from the branch palaces and academies of the Heavenly Sun Star Palace stationed in various prefectures and counties of Chen Guo.

Most of these ten thousand captives were from the common people of Chen Guo, who had previously been recruited as disciples by the Heavenly Sun Star Palace.

This made things difficult for the Grand Master.

Killing them all wouldn't do.

Releasing them was even more impossible.

If they were released, in the future, if things went wrong, they would be spies for the Heavenly Sun Star Palace.

They could only be sent to various star domains for settlement.

But the number was too large.

Especially since some were dragging their families along, totaling nearly one hundred thousand people.

In the end, Xu Jin's Seven Kill Star Domain settled over ten thousand people.

Counting the previous aliens, youths, and craftsmen, the total population of the Seven Kill Star Domain reached fifteen thousand.

Currently, this was also the upper limit of the population that the Seven Kill Star Domain could bear.

Mainly because food and supplies currently relied entirely on Chen Guo's support.

It was equivalent to a fully supported army of fifteen thousand people.

With over ten thousand captives, Xu Jin thought of manifesting a miracle to deter them, which would also facilitate management by Hou Hou Yunzhang and others.

He didn't expect that this appearance would directly shock Hou Hou Yunzhang and the others as well.

Because the population had exploded and the time was quite short, these people were currently still building houses.

But previously, everything started from zero, so most people were sleeping in the open, looking very chaotic.

At this moment, when over fifteen thousand people knelt down, Xu Jin's heart also moved.

Taking this opportunity, he deepened the deterrence.

Letting these captives have a heart of awe would make it even easier for Hou Hou Yunzhang and the others to manage them.

With this thought, the next instant, Xu Jin's heart moved, and he suddenly said, "Since you are all sincere, I will bestow upon you some houses as a reward."

As Xu Jin's voice fell, in the sky, Xu Jin, who had manifested a hundred-foot figure, slowly raised his hands, and a small courtyard rose from the ground.

A very simple small courtyard, with three main rooms and two side rooms.

The first house rose quite slowly.

Xu Jin used his powerful primordial spirit power to urge the authority of heaven and earth in the Seven Kill Star Domain, directly condensing the soil from the ground into walls and then rising; during the rising process, Xu Jin also designed this small courtyard.

He didn't care about the interior, but the exterior and basic functions had to be there.

The first house took a full dozen breaths to finish rising and forging.

This left the over fifteen thousand Seven Kill residents stunned.

The next instant, Xu Jin directly used the first courtyard as a template, directly controlling the authority of heaven and earth with his primordial spirit mind, changing the terrain, and one small courtyard after another constantly rose from the ground.

It was as if houses were growing from the ground.

This scene left all the Seven Kill people stunned.

Whether they were humans of the current world or aliens!

A miracle!

A proper miracle!

They were only afraid of the hundred-foot golden body.

But for this kind of miracle visible to the naked eye, they only had reverence.

Some Seven Kill people, in their shock, even ran into the small courtyards that had finished rising, touched them, and even bit them with their teeth.

There were cultivators, and some even bombarded them with star power.

Cultivators knew there were illusions.

When bombarded with star power, the house walls only shook, being very sturdy.

After testing a round, they were stunned!

Real!

These houses were real!

On the spot, those Seven Kill people knelt on the ground in Xu Jin's direction and kowtowed loudly.

While kowtowing, they called him a god!

This scene drove more Seven Kill people.

Xu Jin also condensed more residential houses.

More Seven Kill people rushed into the small courtyards, and after verifying they were real, their eyes became hot and wild, and they all knelt down to Xu Jin.

In the end, even the management layer including Hou Hou Yunzhang, Tan Zhi, Zhong Zhong Weili, and Ye Ye Yanfeng, in their astonishment, ran over to verify the truth.

They even went directly into the main room to take a look and used star power to verify it.

After verifying, one by one they rushed out of the courtyard, and the look in their eyes when looking at Xu Jin in the sky had completely changed.

It had completely changed into a different look.

The next instant, Hou Hou Yunzhang, Tan Zhi, Zhong Zhong Weili, and Ye Ye Yanfeng, along with the crowd of Seven Kill people, knelt down and worshipped Xu Jin.

This left Xu Jin in the sky exceptionally surprised.

He just wanted to deter those captives.

He didn't expect to scare these few as well.

Just as he was surprised, suddenly, Xu Jin's primordial spirit began to throb inexplicably.

This left Xu Jin extremely stunned.

This kind of throbbing had never been experienced before.

Xu Jin discovered that when his primordial spirit throbbed, it seemed to have a kind of inexplicable joy.

A very instinctive feeling.

In his surprise, Xu Jin urged his full power of the Clear Era Star Pattern to sense in all directions to find the reason.

The movement of the primordial spirit was no small matter.

The next instant, Xu Jin felt strands of very strange power, which he had never seen before, gathering from these Seven Kill people who were worshipping him, drifting toward him and surrounding him.

It was precisely these strange powers that made his primordial spirit throb constantly.

At the same time, attached to these strange powers were strands of pure divine soul power.

In an instant, Xu Jin's heart moved, and he thought of something.
