Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 1730: Chapter 716: Blood Money

The most powerful aspect of Thunder Star Skill is its explosive damage to the physical body and its outstanding damage to the Divine Soul.

No matter if you are a Primordial Spirit or a Daoist Embryo, under one thunderbolt, amidst the crackle of electricity, you’ll either be turned to ashes or suffer significant injuries.

It can quickly secure victory and end the battle.

Unlike the Five Elements Star Power, except for Special Star Skills, other Star Skills cause very limited damage to the Divine Soul.

Hence, Xu Jin easily resolved the twenty-two loyal confidants of Wei Song in just one and a half breaths.

For most people, the continuous swing of the Heavenly Gang Thunder Chain turned their physical bodies and Divine Souls into gray smoke one after another.

The additional half breath was wasted on the leader Wei Han.

Wei Han, in the late Ninth Tier, although not at the genius level, still withstood Xu Jin’s Heavenly Gang Thunder Chain due to his Cultivation Level, but only just barely.

Xu Jin casually unleashed a Thunderbolt Slash, and he was turned to ashes.

Xu Jin, in the middle Seventh Tier, could already cut down those in the Ninth Tier. Now, Xu Jin is genuinely at the Eighth Tier Peak.

A truly genius-level Eighth Tier Peak.

The path of the Eighth Tier Peak is just the beginning for Xu Jin’s own peerless genius path.

In an instant, the Erosion Intent Locking God Star Skill had already sealed the Daoist Embryo of Wei Song, the military leader, from inside to out, like knitting a sweater.

Without Xu Jin’s permission, even speaking is impossible.

His face and eyes are filled only with terror and despair.

Then, he was thrown into the Sumeru Space by Xu Jin.

The Mingji Star Pattern spread out, those three Tenth Rank Little Star Monarchs speeding toward him were less than fifteen hundred miles away.

Because they appeared in Xu Jin’s Divine Soul Sensing like black holes, he could not sense the strength of their power at all.

But when they flew into Xu Jin’s Mingji Star Pattern sensing range, this kind of sensing black hole brought about by their aura, can, to some extent, allow Xu Jin to roughly judge their strength.

That is the size of this sensing black hole.

Among the three Little Star Monarchs, the strongest one brought a sensing black hole size nearly three times that of the weakest one.

"The strongest among the Tenth Rank Little Star Monarchs?"

Upon this thought, Xu Jin suddenly changed his mind.

Xu Jin’s initial plan was to raid and kill military leader Wei Song, then use Space Star Technique to raid these three Little Star Monarchs, catching them off guard and expanding the battle results. But now Xu Jin feels it’s better to play it safe.

There’s no need to take the risk of raiding.

First, build up strength further.

In military leader Wei Song’s hands, there are three parts of the Heaven and Earth Authority of the Lower Pool Star Domain.

With Wei Song’s Daoist Embryo already captured alive, it won’t be long before Xu Jin can obtain these three parts of Heaven and Earth Authority, increasing combat power by at least three parts.

If Heaven and Earth Authority is used well, combat power can be increased even more in actual battle.

Fire condensed and instantly exploded, terrifying Fire Series Star Power rippled like waves in all directions, instantly destroying most of the Star Power fluctuations just passed.

Xu Jin stepped out and instantly vanished into the void.

Thousands of miles away, Little Star Monarch Liu Hongzhi, flying rapidly, suddenly frowned, sensing obscure Star Power fluctuations coming from straight ahead.

To sense it at such a distance, the Star Power fluctuations at the incident site must be extremely strong.

He immediately used the Dongxuan Order for Starlight Transmission to the military leader Wei Song but received no response.

"Quick, speed up! Wei Song might be in trouble." Liu Hongzhi commanded sharply and immediately led the two Little Star Monarchs in full-speed flight, no longer concealing their aura, and increasing their speed by fifty percent.

After fifty breaths, Little Star Monarch Liu Hongzhi arrived first at the incident site below the Star Gate, his face becoming extremely grim and his vast Divine Thought scattering in all directions at once.

A few breaths later, He Jian and Ji An arrived one after the other and began searching in all directions.

The battlefield had clearly been cleaned, and they needed to determine the battle conditions from the remaining battlefield traces.

Especially under the current circumstances, military leader Wei Song had already lost contact.

"Liu Star Monarch, I found some remains with residual Thunder Series Star Power; the target’s Thunder Star Skill is very strong."

"Liu Star Monarch, I found two fragments of spiritual armor, which have residual aura of military leader Wei Song. It can be confirmed that Wei Song has encountered trouble.

Either killed or captured alive."

Little Star Monarch Liu Hongzhi furrowed his brows tightly as he just returned from distant exploration, sensing leftover Space fluctuation.

The enemy is very strong!

From the time military leader Wei Song reported the situation to when they discovered Wei Song’s disconnection, it was only about ten breaths.

In ten breaths, swiftly and cleanly kill a military leader with the combat power of a Tenth Rank Little Star Monarch, plus two Ninth Ranks, and twenty Eighth Ranks, it seems the combat power of the Jade Hall True Monarch Mansion is very strong.

The reinforcements might be more than one Little Star Monarch.

"The invading enemy is very strong, you all keep vigilant, so as not to fall for tricks."

Cautiously reminded, Little Star Monarch Liu Hongzhi urgently reported to his superior, Xiji Star Monarch at the first instant.

This matter must be reported.

Although for now, he still has confidence in resolving the reinforcements from the Jade Hall True Monarch Mansion.

But, letting the superior know the real difficulty of the matter, or rather, slightly exaggerating the difficulty, even if it cannot bring more rewards, more reported battle damage is possible.

At the very least, the merit will still be increased.

On this point, Liu Hongzhi is very clear.

In the Lower Pool Star Domain, Xu Jin’s figure moved one by one over five sealed mineral veins. After careful sensing, then disappeared.

These five mineral veins, sealed for a hundred years, capable of producing Star Crystals, are also Xu Jin’s main target this time.
