Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 1616: Chapter 662: Replaced (Part 2)

Moreover, with your esteemed reputation in establishing a religious sect, it’s only natural, and no one would dare oppose.

Borrowing your esteemed name, at the very least, can suppress the Kunling Domain for a hundred years. As long as the doctrines are lenient and allow free access, and we control the upper echelons effectively, it can also benefit the Kunling Domain for centuries," National Master Cheng Yuxiao seriously stated.

Xu Jin was taken aback and then said, "What you said, National Master, is correct in theory, but in practice, this task is immensely complex and unimaginably intricate.

You know I’m not the right person to handle such affairs, so...."

Before Xu Jin could finish, Cheng Yuxiao waved his hand and said to Xu Jin, "A deity should look down upon the world; you just need to be that lofty deity. These mundane affairs should be handled by those who are under your protection; it is their duty.

If you have no objections, I will handle this matter. You, as the first Hierarch of this Divine Sect, would be better off with me taking on the role."

At this, Xu Jin was astonished, "National Master, didn’t you say you are busy day in and day out, that you are simply overwhelmed?"

"Whether it’s herding one goat or three goats, it’s all the same. I’m already used to being busy. At most, it involves issuing orders and handling state affairs. Besides, now is a time of reform and renewal; establishing a sect at this time is very appropriate."

"I would be more than happy about that!"

"However, before establishing the sect, you need to provide me with the related doctrines, the method of constructing the divine statue, and the structure of the divine sect," Cheng Yuxiao said.

"This... National Master, aside from the method of constructing the divine statue, I have nothing. How about you make a little more effort and we design it together?"

"Nothing at all? Then won’t I be worked to death?" Cheng Yuxiao exclaimed.

"I trust you, National Master. I’ll leave it all to you then."

As they spoke, several documents related to the Divine Sect that Xu Jin had obtained from Sima Qu appeared in Cheng Yuxiao’s hand, and Xu Jin’s figure had already vanished.

He left Cheng Yuxiao there with a wry smile.

But in a moment, Cheng Yuxiao gathered himself together and began writing diligently.

******

Xu Jin realized that National Master Cheng Yuxiao isn’t just some high-ranking ox or horse, but a workaholic!

In a previous life, he would be the king of all overworking beasts.

Having such a workaholic as a National Master is indeed a blessing for Dachen.

In the Bahuang Royal Court, Xu Jin found the equally busy Ning Yuchan.

As the Military Lord of the Mystic Tiger Army, Ning Yuchan was also overwhelmingly busy, organizing the army, handling captives, building fortresses, reconstructing defensive lines, tending to the wounded. Every matter required her decision. Fortunately, she had a team of advisors, otherwise, she might go insane from being overworked.

Seeing Xu Jin approaching, Ning Yuchan hastily delegated her current tasks to come accompany Xu Jin.

"Come with me."

With a simple hand gesture, Xu Jin took Ning Yuchan soaring into the sky, straight into the high-altitude clouds.

"Try this." Xu Jin directly handed the Nine-Star top-grade spiritual treasure previously taken from Ju Zhang to Ning Yuchan.

This was a Gold Series treasure, and Ning Yuchan, having recently forged a Geng Metal Spiritual Body, was a perfect fit for it.

With this treasure, with Ning Yuchan’s current cultivation level, unless encountering those in the Late Period Ninth Tier, she would still possess the power to fight.

"This is..."

The moment her divine thought dwelled within, Ning Yuchan’s expression turned utterly astonished.

A Nine-Star Spiritual Treasure.

The legendary Nine-Star Spiritual Treasure.

An Eight-Star Spiritual Treasure is already a legacy treasure for each major Star Hall. What then is a Nine-Star Spiritual Treasure?

"It’s yours. Go ahead and refine it."

Ning Yuchan accepted it but did not hurry to refine it. She looked at Xu Jin carefully for a moment, her eyes bright as starlight suddenly turned tender and gentle, "I missed you!" she said, already embracing Xu Jin from behind.

These four words are the kind of fire and potion that fuels a man the most.

As Xu Jin’s cultivation level grew stronger, he became less and less concerned with caution.

With a wave of his hand, he summoned countless white clouds, instantly stripping Ning Yuchan naked within the clouds, marveling at the smooth texture, "Could it be that forging a Geng Metal Spiritual Body also has a rejuvenating effect?"

"Do you like it?"

"I do!"

"Then I’ll continue refining!"

This single statement made Xu Jin’s blood surge again.

The clouds gathered and dispersed, but the trembling deep within the cloud layers never ceased.

...

Xu Jin left a day later.

Firstly, after their passionate union, when Ning Yuchan began refining that Golden Snake Bomb, she inadvertently triggered the Gold Element Origin within her natal star, progressing in one fell swoop to the Eighth Tier.

Secondly, with Ning Yuchan’s Eighth Tier, she presented a newfound sensation that Xu Jin couldn’t help but savor.

...

*****

At the Star Gate of the Sumeru Palace Mini World.

The Wood Spirit Palace Master, having received notification, had already arrived. Upon seeing Xu Jin, she immediately approached, respectfully calling him her master.

"Have you gone in yet?"

"The Star Gate is still sealed, awaiting you all this time."

"Then notify them."

"Alright."

Curiously, after Wood Spirit Palace sent out the Starlight Transmission, the Star Gate of Sumeru Palace Mini World still hadn’t opened.

Suddenly, the Star Gate of the Sumeru Palace Mini World began to vibrate violently.

Yet it still did not open.

"What’s going on?"

The next moment, a Starlight Transmission arrived, turning the Wood Spirit Palace Master’s face pale, "Zhang Fei sent a transmission saying that Sumeru Palace is under the control of the traitor Zong Yan, left by Tianyang Star Lord. He is severely injured and has not recovered, and that Zong Yan, wielding the Heaven and Earth Authority given by Tianyang Star Lord, has sealed the Star Gate, refusing to open it.

The disciples of the Sumeru Palace loyal to the Young Palace Master are all seriously injured, unable to open the Star Gate. What is to be done?"

"Step aside," Xu Jin said.

"Master, forcibly breaking open the small world’s Star Gate requires at least the combat power of the Peak of Ninth Rank...."

Halfway through her sentence, the Wood Spirit Palace Master suddenly stepped aside. They then saw starlight falling from the sky, converging instantaneously into a sword light, instantly changing the color of heaven and earth. Under the crazed convergence of countless streams of starlight, with one strike, a slash was made!
