Chapter 665

~17 min read 3,231 words

On the morning of January 13th, silver starlight suddenly fell from the firmament, straight into the Domain-Suppressing King's Mansion.

The silver starlight hung down like a line of heaven, continuously.

Inside the mansion, Ji Hongli, who was cultivating beside Xu Jin, looked, and her expression immediately tightened.

Without changing her expression, she pulled Hao Yue, who was also cultivating, out of the quiet room, her pretty face sank, and she issued an order at the first opportunity.

"Pass the order down, within the Domain-Suppressing King's Mansion, martial law, no one is allowed to use star power."

"Order the Domain-Suppressing King's Personal Guard to impose martial law on the whole city, release warnings to a hundred miles away. Within a hundred miles of the Domain-Suppressing King's City, no flying is allowed, no star power is allowed. Those who violate the order will be beheaded, and those who do not listen to persuasion will be killed!"

"Ying Ge, take the disciples to patrol within a hundred miles around the Domain-Suppressing King's City. If there is any abnormality, dispose of it at the first opportunity. Those who do not listen to persuasion will be directly beheaded with flying swords."

Ji Hongli's knowledge had long been extraordinary. Although she didn't know that her husband Xu Jin had started breaking through to the Eighth Tier without any warning, she knew that the process of Xu Jin breaking through to the Eighth Tier absolutely could not be disturbed.

And Xu Jin was the number one person in the Kunling Realm, so his breakthrough process might be different from ordinary people, so she couldn't be careless.

While issuing orders one by one, the entire Domain-Suppressing King's City instantly became murderous, and streaks of starlight soared into the sky, patrolling in all directions.

But more people looked at that silver line hanging down like a line of heaven, feeling envious.

This Domain-Suppressing Heavenly Wang Xu Jin dominated the current age at the Seventh Tier and slew the Ninth Tier. Then what about after breaking through to the Eighth Tier?

I am afraid that in the Kunling Realm, it would be an invincible posture.

"Sister Hao Yue, you and I will occupy one side, and protect the husband in the mansion. This kind of thing, in the end, is only when we guard it personally that we are most at ease."

"Sister, don't worry."

Silver starlight rose, and Hao Yue had already flown to a towering corner building in the Domain-Suppressing King's Mansion, instantly entering an invisible state.

After arranging all this, Ji Hongli was still somewhat uneasy.

Although she, Hao Yue, and Ying Ge were all Seventh-Tier with extraordinary combat power and could block top-tier Eighth-Tier, it was better to be careful.

She notified Grand Preceptor Cheng Yuexiao, the current Great Elder of the Star Vault Holy Palace, of this matter at the first opportunity.

【Hongli, no need to worry. This situation of the Holy Venerable should be a breakthrough that comes naturally, and there won't be any big problems. But the world is not yet settled, so your arrangement is correct to prevent someone from destroying it.

I will set off now to protect him personally.】

Cheng Yuexiao also gave a response at the first opportunity.

Inside the quiet room, Ji Hongli's arrangement of all this was actually perceived by Xu Jin.

Feeling that Ji Hongli's reaction was a bit nervous, he didn't stop it.

The feeling of being valued was also quite good.

Just as Cheng Yuexiao said, this breakthrough of Xu Jin was indeed natural.

Xu Jin's cultivation had reached the Seventh-Tier Ninth Layer peak a month ago, and he had been polishing his cultivation, while continuously improving the power of his natal star with the Killing Star Art.

This morning, he was just cultivating normally, when suddenly the 108 star towers in his body trembled simultaneously, starlight radiated, directly causing the many star palaces on his natal star to shine brightly and respond in unison.

Xu Jin immediately understood that the opportunity for breakthrough had arrived.

Breaking through under such circumstances was often smoother and had better effects than his own deliberate breakthrough.

Xu Jin naturally wouldn't miss it, even if it was a bit abrupt.

The Eighth Tier was called the Zhai Xing Lou Realm, but it was the beginning of establishing the Dao, also known as Establishing the Tower, and also known as Zhai Xing Lou Establishing the Dao.

It meant that cultivation reached here, and one had to choose one's own Dao.

Preparing for future attainment of the Dao.

But it was only a choice.

Reaching this realm, it was different again. Loose cultivators without any inheritance generally established whatever they had.

Those who cultivated quite mixed, or those whose path was bleak, were also choosing everything they had to cultivate, and then establishing the Dao to build the star tower.

Many people cultivated three or even five systems of star arts, and the future opportunity was hard to determine, and the path was bleak. At this time, they would choose everything, and then establish the Dao to build the star tower.

Even if they couldn't break through to the Ninth Tier, at least their combat power would be more fierce at the Eighth Tier.

Most people in the Kunling Realm were like this before.

Because the opportunity to break through to the Ninth Tier in the future was too bleak.

Of course, speaking of which, for most ordinary people, being able to master two or three systems of star arts in the process of cultivation and growth was already quite remarkable.

Wanting to establish more Dao was simply impossible.

After all, one layer of Dao rules, one layer of tower.

But the Grand Preceptor and the Star Lords of the various palaces had different resources, and their comprehension was strong enough.

Like the Grand Preceptor, he established 106 layers of star towers at the Eighth-Tier peak, so his combat power at the Eighth Tier was incomparably strong.

Cangming Tianyang Xingjun established 99 layers of star towers, and his combat power was also incomparably strong.

The so-called Dao rules, the power of the heaven and earth star will of the small world, was the foundation for composing the power of laws.

One portion of heaven and earth star will power was one portion of Dao rules. Ten portions of Dao rules could fuse into one portion of law power. Ten portions of law power could fuse into one portion of world origin power.

This point had already been previewed and verified on Xu Jin's Arena.

Comprehending one layer of Dao rules of a certain system could establish one layer of star tower.

Now that Xu Jin was breaking through, the choices he faced were extremely numerous, and even relatively difficult.

Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Thunder, Space—a total of eight systems of power.

But with the guidance of Master Emperor Fenghua, Xu Jin's cultivation direction and cultivation order became very clear.

Great Chaos Spirit Body, all eight systems cultivated, but the cultivation order and rhythm were very important.

Cultivate Space first, then cultivate the Five Elements, and finally cultivate Wind and Thunder.

This was also the fundamental reason why Emperor Fenghua spent a full half-year deducing the Great Chaos Spirit Body for Xu Jin initially.

It was not just the cultivation of the Dao body, but Emperor Fenghua also deduced and planned Xu Jin's subsequent cultivation path.

It could allow Xu Jin to cultivate and forge the Dao body with the highest efficiency. In Xu Jin's future cultivation process, there would be countless changes, but the main path had an initial direction.

No matter what, he wouldn't go the wrong way.

This was the benefit of having a master and having an inheritance.

According to Emperor Fenghua's plan, executing it according to his plan when breaking through to the Eighth Tier would increase the efficiency of Xu Jin forging the Great Chaos Spirit Body by more than 30%.

Saving a lot of time.

Otherwise, the Great Chaos Spirit Body cultivating all eight systems would be too slow.

Therefore, when Xu Jin broke through to the Eighth Tier, the first portion of Dao rules he guided down was the spatial Dao rules.

The moment the spatial Dao rules entered his body, under the support of Xu Jin's powerful Dao Embryo, the star power from all directions swept toward Xu Jin like a tide.

But Xu Jin's body was like a bottomless pit. The star power tide surged like a vortex, but the progress of the first layer of Dao rule star tower forged in his body was still very slow.

It was mainly because the star power concentration in the Kunling Realm was too thin.

This was also the reason why cultivators had to prepare a large amount of high-tier Star Jade Tablets or high-tier spiritual medicines when breaking through to the Eighth Tier.

For Xu Jin, this thing was not lacking at all.

The Seventh-Tier Pure Beads seized previously were taken continuously.

After consuming nine Seventh-Tier Pure Beads, suddenly, the 109th layer of Dao rule star tower appeared on the 108 layers of Heaven and Earth Cloud Tower of Xu Jin.

That feeling was very wonderful.

This Dao rule star tower was attached to the Heaven and Earth Cloud Tower, based on the Heaven and Earth Cloud Tower, above the Heaven and Earth Cloud Tower, but was one body with the Heaven and Earth Cloud Tower.

In Xu Jin's feeling, although there was a difference from the Cloud Tower that possessed a physical body, it could still strengthen the power of the Heaven and Earth Cloud Tower to a certain extent.

The star tower was illusory, but the Dao rules and star power that composed the Dao rule star tower were all real.

A few breaths later, Xu Jin continued to cultivate.

But the origin Dao rule power guided down from the natal star in the sky changed to the Gold system.

According to Emperor Fenghua, accumulating with small chaos would make Xu Jin's foundation unbreakable. The powers of the various systems would rely on space, mutually increasing, mutually complementing, and mutually assisting, forming a star tower like a chain lock.

By then, the strength of Xu Jin's star tower would be more than ten times that of a single-system star tower, and seven or eight times that of a dual-system star tower, with a limitless future.

Of course, the resources and time consumed for cultivation would also become very shocking.

Five hours later, Xu Jin's second-layer Gold-system Dao rule star tower was forged. Just as he was about to cultivate while the iron was hot, light emerged within the Thousand Star Token, but it was a starlight message sent by True Person Youyu.

【Little Jinzi, I have already prepared. Urge my Youyu Sword. Within a day, I will arrive above the star river where the Kunling Realm is located. By then, I will protect you. If any people from the outer realm want to descend into the Kunling Realm, I will slash them with one sword. Even if that person is an Emperor, they are the most fragile when descending, and I can also slash them with one sword.

I can make you safe.】

【Many thanks, Old Fish. I will keep this favor in mind.】

On the trial black tower, True Person Youyu, who was ready, looked at Xu Jin's starlight message and laughed straight.

This kid Xu Jin was poisonous, and he was not a fuel-efficient lamp either.

Since he wanted to help protect the Dao, the matter must be handled cleanly and neatly, but these words also had to be said beautifully.

Favors, after all, had to make this kid owe a big one.

The next instant, while vaguely sensing the aura of his own Youyu Sword, True Person Youyu's whole body starlight rose, and while endless starlight fell in the void to protect his whole body, he had already turned into starlight and stepped into the star river.

In the Domain-Suppressing King's Mansion, Xu Jin, who had just completed his breakthrough, had already lifted the alert of the King's Mansion.

True Person Youyu had already set off, and he had to prepare everything before True Person Youyu appeared.

Hugging his two beautiful wives heavily, Xu Jin stepped out and disappeared instantly.

In just a few breaths, he had already appeared at the entrance of the Tianyang Small World, and then stepped in.

According to the analysis of Master Emperor Fenghua, the Star-Plucking Tower was Emperor Jidao's positioning and guidance treasure, and it was highly likely to be his Suppressing Artifact for attaining the Tianyang Xingjun.

It must be refined or destroyed to completely eliminate the possibility of Emperor Jidao descending into the Kunling Realm.

But according to what Xu Jin said, the Kunling Realm had a large number of Star-Plucking Tower main towers and branch towers, but whether it was the main tower or the branch tower of the Star-Plucking Tower, they were not its main body.

There must be a true Star-Plucking Tower main body hidden somewhere in the Kunling Realm.

To refine or destroy the true Star-Plucking Tower main body, one had to find it first.

Finding it was also very simple.

From child to mother.

The Star-Plucking Tower main tower had the closest connection with the main body. As long as all the Star-Plucking Tower main towers were gathered into the same space and then contacted simultaneously, its main body could be found.

For Xu Jin, who had already obtained the authority of the Tianyang Star Palace Star-Plucking Tower main tower, moving it was the simplest thing.

Not long after, it was sent to the star river battlefield location chosen by Xu Jin.

As for the artifact spirit star spirit, Xu Jin endured and did not contact it according to Emperor Fenghua's request.

Before refining it, one could not have contact with it.

This was Emperor Fenghua's instruction.

Because the connection between the artifact spirit and its master was the closest.

Contacting too early might arouse Emperor Jidao's vigilance.

The things that followed were simple.

The Cangming Star Palace Star-Plucking Tower main tower and the Zhen'e Star Palace Star-Plucking Tower main tower were moved to the star river battlefield by Xu Jin one by one.

Subsequently, Xu Jin headed to the Lingji Small World.

The main towers of the four great star palaces were the main towers that the Kunling Realm had from the beginning. Having these four main towers to trigger it was enough.

"Teacher."

Inside the Lingji Small World, seeing that it was Qi Shanye, Xu Jin paid respects to Qi Shanye at the first opportunity.

Now, the Lingji Small World had been handed over to Qi Shanye to manage.

Qi Shanye found his wife and children in the Lingji Small World, but his parents had already passed away.

"Hmm, follow me. He is here."

The "he" Qi Shanye spoke of referred to the remnant spirit of the original Lingji Star Palace Palace Master, Sima Qu.

This was also the reason why Xu Jin only obtained 90% of the Lingji Small World's Heaven and Earth Authority after slaying Sima Qu initially.

But this reason was discovered after Qi Shanye took charge of the Lingji Small World.

It was said that in the Lingji Star Palace of the small world, a wisp of Sima Qu's remnant spirit was discovered.

After Sima Qu's remnant spirit was discovered, it was controlled.

Xu Jin had many affairs recently, but he had never seen it.

Coming over today, he conveniently met it, and at the same time, he also came to completely resolve this matter.

Sima Qu had all kinds of faults, but he had always been raising Qi Shanye's wife and children. Asking Qi Shanye to kill Sima Qu's remnant spirit, Qi Shanye couldn't bring himself to do it.

Deepest part of the Lingji Star Palace main hall, a ghost-like starlight was wandering in the star palace. On the Palace Master's throne, several Seventh-Tier Star Jade Tablets and essence beads were placed, slowly emitting power to let this remnant spirit absorb.

Otherwise, this remnant spirit would have long since disintegrated.

The main hall was wide open, a breeze blew, and Sima Qu's remnant spirit turned around instantly, and suddenly saw Xu Jin, "You finally came."

"Teacher said, you wanted to see me before you died?"

"Did you really deduce the Cheng Po, Mingji, and other star patterns to the Ninth Tier?" This was Sima Qu's doubt after chatting with Qi Shanye.

"Ninth-Tier Upper."

Following Xu Jin's display, the ghost-like Sima Qu looked Xu Jin up and down, and suddenly said, "That little object you used to suppress and kill us, was it the Heaven and Earth Cloud Tower?"

Xu Jin's eyes narrowed fiercely, "How did you know?"

Regarding the Heaven and Earth Cloud Tower, even the Grand Preceptor only knew a part of it.

"I guessed!"

"After being slain by you, I kept reviewing it, and finally found it unsolvable, with no possibility of a comeback, especially that strange little tower of yours, which most Ninth-Tier cannot resist.

Later, I slowly recalled and found, it was too similar, too similar!

Answer me, is it!"

"Why should I tell you?" Xu Jin said.

"I am a person about to die, what harm can there be! If I can know that my research has been successful before I die, it can be considered a comfort," Sima Qu said.

After a few breaths of silence, Xu Jin nodded, "That's right, it is the Heaven and Earth Cloud Tower."

"Did you read my manual?" Sima Qu said excitedly.

Xu Jin nodded again.

"How many layers?" Sima Qu's eyes were shining!

"108 layers!"

"108 layers?"

Sima Qu's eyes widened fiercely, "This... in my deduction, it was over 25 layers. How did you do this? What is the key?"

"The key is that when breaking through to the Fifth Tier in star condensation, one must forge as many star cores as possible in the middle and lower star palaces, and the Divine Soul must be strong enough, at least at the early stage of the Primordial Spirit, otherwise, one cannot control enough star cores."

Hearing this, Sima Qu stood stunned in place.

"It is so..."

"Sure enough, no wonder we failed... the idea was not wrong, the method was not wrong, but the foundation was not enough..."

"It was worth it!"

"It was worth it!"

"In the future, if there is a chance, pass down the cultivation method of this Heaven and Earth Cloud Tower. Whether it carries my name or not is not important, just pass it down, and it won't be in vain for me to walk this human world..."

Sima Qu murmured, his eyes full of brilliance, but his ghost-like body began to dissipate slowly.

Before the starlight dissipated, Sima Qu threw a Star Jade Tablet and a jade box that had been applied with heavy seals to Xu Jin, which he had long prepared.

"This should be what you need, regarding the origin of the Baidou Divine Sect and some speculations!

Also, what I want to remind you is that the source of the Baidou Divine Sect is still Emperor Jidao. You must be careful..."

"What?"

While Xu Jin was dumbfounded, Sima Qu's remnant spirit had already turned into dots of starlight and completely dissipated.
