Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 1647: Chapter 675: Innate Spiritual Material

It is the supreme treasure material for refining Lifebound Spiritual Treasures.

Moreover, in cultivation, before nurturing it’s called innate, after nurturing it’s called acquired.

Thus, this embryonic palace is not only attributeless, but also an innate treasure material, one of the best innate treasure materials for refining Lifebound Spiritual Treasures in the world.

Lifebound Spiritual Treasures refined based on this material have almost no growth limits.

This treasure material naturally belongs to Benefactor you.

Benefactor, if you use it to refine a Lifebound Spiritual Treasure in the future, your achievements will be limitless."

"Besides, it is said that since birth, this Gu Mother has lain unmoving on this peak, and the sand and stones close to its flesh have become top-grade spiritual material, Ten Thousand Crystal Sand, after being nourished for hundreds of years, which is another great harvest.

These naturally belong to Benefactor you, we don’t want anything.

We only want the Dragon Bone and Gu Mother Gu Crystal to obtain the Daozi status; other than that, we don’t want anything.

And we will do our utmost to assist Benefactor in slaying this Gu Mother," Zhu Shizhen said.

Upon hearing this, Xu Jin looked at the distant Gu Mother, his eyes somewhat heated.

That innate treasure material indeed tempted him greatly.

Whether it’s a Lifebound Spiritual Treasure or the Dao Performance Divine Power after the Tenth Rank, both require innate treasure materials.

And innate treasure materials are encounterable but not requestable.

More importantly, Master Emperor Fenghua had said that Dao Performance Divine Power normally requires the Tenth Rank, but actually, as long as the great Dao reaches the Ninth Tier limit, coupled with a Sixth Tier Daoist Embryo, one can achieve the Dao Performance Divine Power early.

Xu Jin was indeed tempted.

"Too difficult!"

Xu Jin shook his head, "You surely know, the difficulty of slaying this Gu Mother might not lie in the Gu Mother itself, but in the tens of thousands of Eighth Rank Gu Beasts around Ten Thousand Gu Peak.

As long as the Gu Mother commands, tens of thousands of Eighth Rank Gu Beasts and hundreds of Ninth Tier Gu swarm together, it wouldn’t just be me who couldn’t withstand it, even a Tenth Tier True Monarch wouldn’t."

"Rest assured, Benefactor, the reason I bring this up is that I’m sure on this point!"

Zhu Shizhen showcased the previously obtained Gu Mother Dragon Bone Flute, "This treasure disperses the Gu beasts; it can likely drive most of them away and greatly reduce the difficulty."

This point, Xu Jin had already guessed.

But he still shook his head, "Too difficult!

Too risky.

If successful, I will embellish my achievements.

But if failure happens, life and soul will be extinguished!

Also, I don’t have a Life Replacement Token."

Upon his words, Zhu Shizhen showed a face of disappointment. Xu Jin had spoken like this, and it wasn’t appropriate to persuade further.

Xu Jin had said it all, and persuading Benefactor against committing suicide wasn’t an option.

Standing beside him, Wang Ji’s eyes sparkled, "My lord may try a bit; however, with large Space Star Technique, if one or two attempts fail, you can quickly flee.

We know that while the innate treasure material is useful, my lord doesn’t need it in the short term.

But directly advancing to Daozi is immeasurably important for Yutang King.

It concerns the survival of Yutang Royal Mansion for a thousand years.

Please, my lord, fulfill our plea.

Succeed or not, my lord’s commands will be my death-bound duty!" After speaking, the Yutang King Mansion’s retainer knelt before Xu Jin.

"Me too!" Chang Lin hurriedly followed the example, kneeling before Xu Jin, "I only ask my lord to try, and seek opportunities for our master."

"This..."

Xu Jin was actually tempted, though slightly hesitant.

Mostly worrying about standing out too much.

Beside him, Yutang King Zhu Shizhen was moved deeply by his two subordinates’ actions, bowing to the ground, "If Benefactor doesn’t disdain, from today onwards, you are the Ritual Officer of my Yutang Royal Mansion, moreover at Star Lord level.

As a Star Lord level Ritual Officer, you will receive a spiritual material annually and a treasure material every decade. If top-grade treasure materials or innate spiritual materials appear, Star Lord level Ritual Officers have priority in selection."

Xu Jin, upon hearing, was indeed tempted.

Such immense benefits, saying he was not tempted would be false, especially with that innate treasure material from the Gu Mother.

But this combat must be well strategized.

Xu Jin’s deliberating gaze fell into Yutang King Zhu Shizhen’s eyes, which seemed to suggest Xu Jin was contemplating.

At once, Yutang King Zhu Shizhen panicked!

He knew too well the current situation for himself and the Yutang Royal Mansion.

Normally, after becoming a Marquis candidate Daozi, the probability of successfully passing Dongxuan Dao Palace’s selection for Dongxuan Daozi is still significant, with at least a thirty percent chance through careful preparation.

Possibly even forty percent.

But the problem is, the other three True Monarch Mansions currently are unwilling to see him become Daozi.

If he, Yutang King, can’t become Daozi, then the last hope for Yutang Royal Mansion is gone.

Within a few years, they will divide up the rich soil of Yutang Royal Mansion.

That’s close to a hundred Small Worlds, one Middle World, nearly a fifth of the Great World Dongxuan Star Realm’s territory.

Paying any price is worth it.

Right now he was truly urgent.

As Yutang King, he naturally underwent various types of education.

For different people, employ varying methods of heavy incentives.

For the greedy, entice with profits.

For the lustful, tempt with beauty.

For the passionate, bind with sentiment.

For the ambitious, lure with aspirations.

The Benefactor Xu Jin, possessing formidable combat power, seems not greedy, sentiment-driven, nor have any intelligence on any direction or family connections.

Aspirations?

Just encountered, not familiar.

Aiming at Dao path, but the current Yutang Royal Mansion can’t offer too high a price.

It leaves only one path: seduction!

Given Xu Jin’s age, young beyond imagination.

At his peak of vitality.

Seduction is suitable.

Yutang King Zhu Shizhen initially intended to promise Xu Jin a hundred beautiful concubines but felt common beauties wouldn’t appeal to Xu Jin upon words.

The key is, Xu Jin at the Eighth Tier already possessed the combat power to slay Ninth Tier Late Period or even oppose a Little Star Monarch.

Then when cultivation advances further, what level of strength would he possess at the Ninth Tier?

Accumulated experience in Emperor’s Heart Skill informed Zhu Shizhen that towards Xu Jin, not only seduction to ensnare, but also must tie him to the Yutang King’s war car.

Only then does it maximize benefit!

In an instant, Zhu Shizhen envisioned a figure.

Perhaps only that person could fully bind Xu Jin to the Yutang King’s war car!

Instantaneously made a decision!

Meanwhile, Xu Jin too made a decision.

Suddenly, Yutang King Zhu Shizhen spoke up, "Benefactor, regardless of success, if you are willing to try, I’ll introduce you to my sister, moreover strive to matchmake, creating opportunities for you, ensuring you win the beauty!"

Xu Jin was stunned.

Amazed by Zhu Shizhen’s sudden promise.

"Benefactor, you are unaware, my sister is alleged as the first beauty of Dongxuan Star Realm, a human world unmatched beauty! Additionally gentle and considerate, understanding and wise.

Look, this is my sister’s portrait!"

While speaking, Zhu Shizhen waved, and a starlight projection appeared before Xu Jin.

A lady with a tall and slender physique, fresh and elegant appearance, with two tiny dimples at the corners of her mouth, akin to a budding spring flower center, was projected with starlight before Xu Jin, her lips carrying a faintly sweet smile.

Xu Jin’s gaze slightly focused.

Merely that smile brought delight.

Very sweet.

"How about her? My sister is pretty, isn’t she! She is still unmarried, now the Eldest Princess of Yutang Royal Mansion, overseeing most affairs.

Beautiful as is, even more stunning in palace attire!

Even more striking in military garb!"

Upon these words, both Chang Lin and Wang Ji couldn’t help but turn their heads.

They felt Yutang King was going a bit overboard.

Yet they understood Yutang King’s sincere intentions and plans.

This mysterious Xu Jin was certainly worthwhile.

Xu Jin was speechless.

He realized, this Yutang King Zhu Shizhen truly understood men.

However, reflecting logically, overseeing nearly a hundred Star Domains, Yutang King must have an understanding of men.

"Put it away, I’ll give my best shot," Xu Jin said.

Upon finishing, Xu Jin added, "My main goal is the innate spiritual material on Gu Mother, unrelated to your sister!"

"I understand, I understand, certainly unrelated to my sister!" Delighted, Yutang King Zhu Shizhen nodded, "Once the assessments end, I will personally introduce my sister to Benefactor and create opportunities for you."

Xu Jin was speechless.

This guy really still doesn’t believe him.

But he didn’t explain any further.

"Let’s draft the plan for slaying the Gu Mother now," Xu Jin said.
