Chapter 736: The Power of the Dao Oath
Inside the Offering Residence of Yutang Wang City.
Seven days had passed since Xu Jin returned from the Xiazhu Star Domain.
During these seven days, Xu Jin did not step out of his house, and except for occasionally having some "two-person exercise" with Zhu Linxiao, who attended to his daily life, he spent all his time in bitter cultivation.
The purpose was to convert the Zhou Tian Star Dew harvested in this battle into strength in the shortest possible time.
This world was full of unknowns; no one knew whether accidents or tomorrow would come first.
All Xu Jin could do was adjust his state to the best as much as possible and raise his strength to the extreme he could achieve.
If an accident came, he would deal with it with all his might.
If he truly lacked the strength and couldn't deal with it, then he would have no regrets or complaints!
Twenty-five drops of Zhou Tian Star Dew helped Xu Jin condense and forge seventy-five layers of Star Towers, causing the number of Xu Jin's Zhai Xing Lou layers to soar again.
Now, looking inward, the spatial Zhai Xing Lou was still sixty-five layers, the Thunder-attribute Zhai Xing Lou reached forty-two layers, the Wood-attribute Zhai Xing Lou was thirty-nine layers, and the other Star Towers were all thirty-six layers.
The total number of layers for the Eight-Tower-Merged Chaos Protective Killing Move surged by nearly a hundred layers again, which also meant that Xu Jin's combat power when erupting surged again.
From Xu Jin's own feeling, if he encountered a strong Little Tianyang Xingjun like Lu Sheng again, even without the blessing of that ninety percent Heaven and Earth Authority, and without using the Grand Void Questioning Platform, Xu Jin could kill him in two breaths.
But under the same circumstances, wanting to kill Song Ju quickly would be a bit difficult.
In other words, with his current strength, without the blessing of ninety percent Heaven and Earth Authority, and without using the Grand Void Questioning Platform, the strongest combat power Xu Jin could erupt with was about the same as Song Ju's—the combat power of a Great Tianyang Xingjun.
However, Xu Jin was confident that within one or two months, he would possess the combat power to crush Song Ju.
The Eight-System-Merged Chaos Killing Move learned from his master's guidance had too much growth potential.
Up to now, he had only forged one-third of the Star Towers, and his combat power was already so strong.
Future combat power was promising.
And this progress of condensing Star Towers was much faster than Xu Jin had imagined.
Xu Jin had previously estimated it would take six to eight years.
But now, in just over half a year, he had completed one-third of the progress.
Theoretically, in at most three to four years, Xu Jin would be able to reach the Eighth-Tier peak and advance to the Ninth-Tier.
Of course, it was possible to be faster.
Once the consumption of treasures like Zhou Tian Star Dew for rapidly improving cultivation was finished, the subsequent cultivation would be step-by-step.
Xu Jin had obtained over 1,900 Ninth-Tier Star Crystals from the five sealed mines in the Xiazhu Star Domain, and Yutang King Zhu Shizhen didn't want a single one, handing them all to Xu Jin.
He let Xu Jin use them to improve his cultivation.
Xu Jin didn't talk nonsense either; he accepted them all. With these Ninth-Tier Star Crystals, even without Zhou Tian Star Dew, he could forge one layer of Zhai Xing Lou a day, enough for him to continue cultivating for over a hundred days.
Zhu Shizhen had the heart, and he had the righteousness; the feedback from the fifteen Little Tianyang Xingjun-level Dao-Evolution Pearls, when calculated, was also a huge wealth.
There was a clear price tag for Little Tianyang Xingjun-level Dao-Evolution Pearls in the Qianxing Order.
One pearl sold for 30,000 points, and the acquisition price was 15,000 to 20,000 points, depending on its quality.
At this acquisition price, one Little Tianyang Xingjun-level Dao-Evolution Pearl was worth at least two drops of Zhou Tian Star Dew.
Fifteen pearls, that was thirty drops.
The key was that Little Tianyang Xingjun-level Dao-Evolution Pearls could be described as having a market but no supply.
There were thousands and thousands of cultivators under major True Person residences and Tianyang Xingjun residences whose cultivation was stuck at the Ninth-Tier peak.
As long as there were pearls, they could help these people break through to Little Tianyang Xingjun.
Even if you wanted to buy them, you might not be able to.
At this very moment, as his cultivation stepped back onto the path of accumulation, Xu Jin needed to prepare for the Law Heaven Road comprehension at the end of June.
According to the exchange between Xu Jin and Zhu Linxiao, forging a life-bound spiritual treasure, as long as the treasure materials were ready, could be done in one or two days, or at most two or three days.
So Xu Jin also made two preparations for the Law Heaven Road comprehension at the end of June.
If before climbing the Law Heaven Road at the end of June, Tianyang Xingjun Xiji, Liu Xi, could bring the traded items, and at the same time, the residence of True Person Yutang was also trying its best to search and find Thunder-attribute treasure materials for Xu Jin to forge the Thunder-attribute life-bound spiritual treasure.
If enough were gathered, then Xu Jin would start forging the Thunder-attribute life-bound spiritual treasure at the first opportunity, and then during the trial at the end of June, attempt to climb to the peak of the Thunder-attribute Law Heaven Road.
If not enough were gathered, then Xu Jin would start forging the Wood-attribute life-bound spiritual treasure at the first opportunity, and during the trial at the end of June, attempt to climb to the peak of the Wood-attribute Law Heaven Road.
So at this moment, Xu Jin was preparing for these two directions.
That was to improve his attainments in Wood-attribute and Thunder-attribute laws as much as possible.
Although in the Arena of Battle, Xu Jin had already forged origin stars for both Wood and Thunder attributes.
Theoretically, it could support him in climbing to the peak of the Wood-attribute or Thunder-attribute Law Heaven Road.
But according to the information obtained from the few words mentioned by True Person Commander Tian Zhang previously.
In the Law Heaven Road secret realm of the Dongxuan Dao Palace, the spatial Law Heaven Road was actually the weakest.
Because spatial law comprehension was difficult, and the consumption for forging life-bound spiritual treasures was three times that of other systems, fewer people cultivated it.
The weakest became the most difficult.
But in reality, the Heaven and Earth Will contained within other law Heaven Roads was far higher than that of the spatial Law Heaven Road.
So Xu Jin needed to make more preparations in this regard.
In terms of Thunder attribute, Xu Jin could use the three Enlightenment Stones obtained during the Dao-Child selection to improve his attainments in the Thunder-attribute Law Heaven.
In terms of Wood attribute, Yutang King Zhu Shizhen had already found a Wood-attribute Enlightenment Stone for Xu Jin through his connections.
At the same time, Zhu Linxiao helped Xu Jin refine the essence blood fetal pearls of Lu Sheng and Song Ju into Dao-Evolution Pearls, saving Xu Jin a lot of time.
It just so happened that he discovered that Lu Sheng's Dao-Evolution Pearl contained a Wood-attribute Law Heaven Road, which could be used to comprehend Wood-attribute laws.
Although it was a bit extravagant, it was worth it. For others, using a Dao-Evolution Pearl had a fifty percent probability of evolving a law Dao and breaking through to Little Tianyang Xingjun.
But for Xu Jin, if his attainments in Wood-attribute laws were sufficient, as long as he could successfully climb to the peak of the Wood-attribute Law Heaven Road, it meant that in the future, Xu Jin could easily evolve seven or eight Wood-attribute law Daos, which was of extraordinary significance.
At that moment, Xu Jin took out a Thunder-attribute Enlightenment Stone and began to comprehend.
The moment his divine sense sank in and triggered the Thunder-attribute Enlightenment Stone, Xu Jin's mind instantly merged with the Thunder-attribute Enlightenment Stone, and then his divine sense seemed to grow countless tentacles, being led by the Enlightenment Stone to probe in all directions.
Very quickly, with the help of the Enlightenment Stone, Xu Jin vaguely sensed a terrifying, river-like thunder vein; this thunder vein existed between reality and illusion, and just a slight sensing of it brought an endless sense of deterrence.
And this terrifying, river-like thunder vein was like a water net, emitting countless branches, constantly appearing and disappearing in the void!
And Xu Jin, with the help of the Enlightenment Stone, was constantly capturing one after another of these Thunder-attribute Heaven and Earth Star Wills in the void.
Many were ones Xu Jin had already comprehended, but some were ones Xu Jin had never seen before.
This made Xu Jin overjoyed.
His divine sense sank into the Enlightenment Stone and touched them, wanting to immerse himself in comprehending that Thunder-attribute Heaven and Earth Star Will he had never seen before.
But the moment his divine sense made contact and he wanted to immerse himself in it to comprehend, an indescribable great power suddenly emerged between heaven and earth, and as it resonated slightly with Xu Jin's Dao-Fetus, it caused Xu Jin's Dao-Fetus to break contact with this Thunder-attribute Heaven and Earth Star Will he had never seen before.
Unable to comprehend?
This made Xu Jin stunned and confused.
What was going on?
Previously, when asking Zhu Linxiao about how to use Enlightenment Stones and how to maximize the effect of Enlightenment Stones, Zhu Linxiao had never mentioned that this situation would occur.
"Could it be that I touched a Thunder-attribute Heaven and Earth Star Will that was too profound?
Then I'll try another one?"
Subsequently, Xu Jin triggered the Enlightenment Stone again and sank his divine sense in to search for a Thunder-attribute Heaven and Earth Star Will he had never comprehended before in the void.
After over a hundred breaths, he found another one.
Xu Jin's divine sense climbed up, preparing to comprehend again.
But a strange thing happened; the moment Xu Jin started to comprehend, the same situation occurred again.
A strange resonance appeared, and Xu Jin's divine sense was bounced away again.
Unable to comprehend!
In an instant, Xu Jin's head was full of question marks!
At the same time, Xu Jin already understood that it wasn't that the Thunder-attribute Heaven and Earth Star Will he found was too advanced, but that something was wrong on his end!
Such a small probability couldn't happen continuously!
Moreover, Heaven and Earth Star Wills, whether profound or advanced, at most meant you couldn't comprehend them; how could they directly bounce his divine sense away?
Xu Jin originally wanted to ask True Person Commander Tian Zhang, but after thinking about it, he decided to ask Zhu Linxiao, the Tianyang Xingjun, first.
If Zhu Linxiao couldn't solve it, then it wouldn't be too late for Xu Jin to ask True Person Commander Tian Zhang.
If the situation was serious, perhaps he would need to ask his master, Emperor Fenghua.
Receiving Xu Jin's starlight transmission, Zhu Linxiao, who was handling official business in the Punishment Hall, returned to Xu Jin's Offering Residence at the first opportunity.
The moment they met, Zhu Linxiao looked worried, but still asked very gently, "Husband, this problem is actually very simple, but solving this problem is hard to say; it depends on the problem itself."
"How so?" Xu Jin was puzzled.
"Husband, this situation when you were cultivating just now is a bit like being rejected by the Dao."
"Rejected by the Dao?"
Xu Jin's face changed, his expression stern, "How could this be?"
If he were rejected by the Dao, wouldn't that mean Xu Jin would be unable to comprehend the law Dao in the future?
Wouldn't that mean his Dao path was ruined?
"Husband, don't be anxious!"
Zhu Linxiao comforted Xu Jin incomparably gently, then said softly, "When we cultivators encounter this situation, it is mostly related to Dao oaths.
Husband, you should recall carefully: what Dao oaths have you made in the last few years?
Are there any that have a short time limit, are specific, and have not been completed?
Then we can think of a way to remedy it together."
As soon as these words were spoken, Xu Jin was suddenly stunned; he remembered.
Case solved!
Wu Bei!
The vanguard-selector Wu Bei he saved after he was rescued by Emperor Emperor Du Yue at his master's request and drifted to the Insect-Raising Domain.
This person provided Xu Jin with extremely detailed information on the powerful figures of the Dongxuan Star Realm and gave Xu Jin a direction to solve his identity.
At that time, he decided to seek help from the Bixuan Lu clan or the Yutang Zhu clan because of the information provided by this Wu Bei.
At that time, according to his request, he made a Dao oath.
Since becoming a Dao-Child, he had been cultivating bitterly, and coupled with the continuous wars in the Xiazhu Star Domain, Xu Jin had thrown this matter to the back of his mind.
Now, it was actually directly affecting Xu Jin's comprehension of the Dao.
Xu Jin had finally witnessed the power of the Dao oath!
Fortunately, this matter was easy to complete, and the remedy was not difficult!
"Lin'er, help me investigate all the information related to this Wu Bei's family, quickly and secretly," Xu Jin said.
"Husband, rest assured, I will arrange it personally." After saying this, Zhu Linxiao stepped on the stars and left.
Upon hearing this, Xu Jin breathed a sigh of relief and also learned his lesson.
In the future, it was better not to make Dao oaths if he could avoid it.
The consequences were too terrifying!
