Chapter 1785: Chapter 742: Qi Sha’s Old Acquaintance
In the remote Skywind Star Realm, inside a grand hall, a man with long hair tied up high and a vertical eye open on his forehead, with thunder light flashing in his eyes, is cultivating quietly amidst countless bright starlight when suddenly his communication token lights up and his brow furrows.
[Someone triggered your alert? When did this happen?]
[Sir, just a few breaths ago, I came to report to you the moment I discovered it.]
[Someone managed to reach the limit of what you set up; this intruder is quite formidable then. This treasure might actually be taken by this fellow.]
[Sir, you arranged for us to watch this treasure for thirty years, prepared for thirty years, yet now someone else is picking the fruit. Should I go there?]
[Hmm, you should go personally. If the treasure has been taken, investigate if you can trace it, if not, return; it’s not good to linger there for long. If it hasn’t been taken, deal with this intruder, consider it a bonus for you.] The man with the vertical eye transmitted his order.
[Alright, sir, I will go immediately.]
After his instructions, the man’s vertical eye on his forehead closed slightly, and all the shining starlight around him was instantly absorbed into the vertical eye, his forehead returning to normal, yet his gaze was directed towards the outer star dome.
"This treasure cannot be allowed to be taken! I have pursued this for so many years, finally found an innate treasure material of the Thunder Series, and it might even be Chaos Elemental Materials.
No matter which one, as long as I get it, my Divine Power Heavenly Punishment Divine Eye can achieve Great Success.
My luck shouldn’t be so bad, right?"

Thunder Gang Star Domain.
After exiting Thunder Valley, Xu Jin immediately shifted space thousands of miles away, where the relentless heavenly thunder overhead slightly calmed down.
The Star Skill within the Daoist Embryo began operating autonomously, the Star Healing Star Pattern in his body also shone brightly, silently healing Xu Jin while he began to execute the second plan.
Before coming here, Xu Jin prepared two plans.
The first plan was direct retrieval.
If direct retrieval was possible, that would be the most convenient; if not, attempting a direct retrieval would still test the difficulty of acquiring this Millennium Thunder Copper.
After all, the second plan isn’t foolproof either.
Only by determining the difficulty can he decide if the second plan can be executed.
Now it seems that acquiring the Millennium Thunder Copper is very difficult, but in the first plan, Xu Jin is close to success.
However, if the second plan succeeds, the chance of obtaining the Millennium Thunder Copper is still very high.
As for the second plan, there haven’t been any failures so far.
As the Star Skill and Star Healing Star Pattern continued to operate, Xu Jin had already activated the high-tier Seven Killings Sword Heart, beginning to sense the life force within this Thunder Gang Small World Star Domain.
Killing Star!
Claiming Heaven and Earth Authority!
This is Xu Jin’s second plan.
As soon as the high-tier Seven Killings Sword Heart was activated, Xu Jin’s brow furrowed.
Indeed, this special yet incomplete Small World has its obstacles, making it not so smooth.
Of course, it’s just not as smooth.
What’s usually sensed in a dozen breaths in the Thunder Gang Star Domain’s life force took Xu Jin a full 15 minutes.
This is related to the thunderous environment of the Thunder Gang Star Domain now.
Heavenly thunder like rain in the sky causes a mess of various auras within the Thunder Gang Star Domain, greatly hindering sensing-type secret techniques.
It’s just the high-tier Seven Killings Sword Heart.
Like Xu Jin’s Mingji Star Pattern sensing, it can’t be deployed or maintained.
Otherwise, directly scattered by the heavenly thunder, Xu Jin’s Daoist Embryo would be counterattacked and injured.
Even Xu Jin’s Seven Killings Dragon Escape Pillar can’t be used.
Far from Thunder Valley, it can barely be used.
A little closer to Thunder Valley, barely deployed, is scattered by the heavenly thunder.
When the life force in the Thunder Gang Small World is sensed by the high-tier Seven Killings Sword Heart, Xu Jin’s powerful Divine Thought converged into an invisible sword light, slashing at that life force!
The Killing Star begins!
With one slash, the life force in the Thunder Gang Small World feels like it was bitten by a mosquito, with no reaction.
Xu Jin is extremely familiar with this.
The Seven Kills True Monarch’s Star Killing Skill requires patience.
It feels like a BOSS monster that’s lost consciousness being continuously attacked by someone, though it doesn’t cause any damage, each forced drop of blood accumulates until death!
Slowly grinded to death!
This is the process of Killing Star.
Xu Jin has experienced it many times.
All that’s needed is patience.
What Xu Jin doesn’t know is, a Daoist Embryo completely wrapped in a thunder flag, its aura nearly identical to the thunder of this Thunder Gang Star Domain.
At this moment, in the void, it is overlooking Xu Jin from afar.
In his eyes, there is a peculiar expression.
As Star Monarch, Ba Chengfeng can sense the continuous Divine Soul fluctuations rising around Xu Jin, strong ones too, but can’t tell what Xu Jin is doing.
Continuously gathering Divine Souls, activating Divine Soul Power.
In Ba Chengfeng’s initial view, this young man seems like an idiot.
But he understands that anyone who dares to come to this Thunder Gang Small World definitely isn’t an idiot.
Something strange!
Very strange indeed!
Especially with the Eighth Tier Peak cultivation level, is he here to meet his doom?
But could he be here to meet his doom?
Impossible!
"Could it be my companion who triggered the alarm before? Does it mean his companion died after triggering my alarm? Let me investigate further!"
When Ba Chengfeng first arrived at the Thunder Realm, he focused on observing the Thousand-year Thunder Bronze.
It hasn’t been lost!
He let out a sigh of relief.
After immediately reporting this good news to his master, he conducted a search and found Xu Jin.
Initially, Xu Jin could have detected this individual, even from afar.
Unfortunately, due to the constant heavenly thunder, the Mingji Star Pattern couldn’t unfold, and he didn’t notice this anomaly.
After 100 breaths, Astro Lord Ba Chengfeng’s Daoist Embryo, under the protection of the thunder flag, cautiously reached the furthest point he had traveled to before, three miles from the Thousand-year Thunder Bronze.
After a round of searching, he found no fresh corpses.
He arrived just in time; no matter how fast or numerous the heavenly thunder, it couldn’t reduce an intruder’s corpse to ashes in such a short time.
"This is quite strange!"
Perplexed, Ba Chengfeng looked at the Thousand-year Thunder Bronze three miles away, his gaze both fervent and apprehensive.
The Chaos Thunder Gang was secondary; the thunder flag he now wore had been personally crafted by his loyal master, already capable of resisting most Chaotic Star Gang.
The key was this divine artifact had a spirit.
This item was an Innate Treasure Material, and the top-grade kind at that.
As long as one intruded within a two-mile radius of it, this artifact would actively summon chaotic heavenly thunder to reduce the intruder to dust.
His thunder flag could withstand three or five chaotic thunder ganks but not a dozen, especially several waves of them.
This conclusion came at a great cost over the years.
This great cost included three Little Star Monarchs and one Star Lord carrying a Daoist Embryo.
However, through this tremendous cost, they obtained a great deal of useful information.
For example, the method of suppressing the Thousand-year Thunder Bronze’s spirituality, which now has a clear path.
According to the True Monarch, it could be refined within half a year to a year.
When the time comes, he would come and activate the secret treasure, concealing the spiritual nature of this treasure, preventing it from summoning chaotic thunder ganks against intruders, and he could then collect it.
By then, it would be considered a great merit.
If the True Monarch advanced further, he could also reach new heights.
A dozen breaths later, Astro Lord Ba Chengfeng stealthily left the core area of the thunderland, returning to the void where thunder flashed, sensing Xu Jin’s actions intermittently between heavenly thunder strikes.
Fifteen minutes later, Ba Chengfeng reported his observations to the True Monarch of Heavenly Punishment.
Inside the grand hall, the True Monarch of Heavenly Punishment frowned slightly, contemplating for a few breaths before giving an instruction, [This young man is quite peculiar; you must not be careless. As you said, the opponent consistently invokes divine soul power as if repeating something—either a madman or someone with a purpose.
This is a serious matter.
You must keep a close watch, and do not expose your position; observe what this fellow intends to do!]
[Rest assured, Master, I understand.]
*****
In the Thunder Realm, Xu Jin was persistently striking down the life fluctuations of the Thunder Realm with one sword strike after another.
With immense patience!
One hundred swords, a thousand swords, ten thousand swords...
When his divine soul cultivation was almost exhausted, he consumed pills or divine soul type spiritual medicine to recover, never stopping the star slaying.
After most of the day, suddenly, the Thunder Realm’s life fluctuations, which were sensed by Xu Jin’s high-tier Seven Kills Sword Heart, surged violently, angered, finally becoming intolerable.
The entire realm’s thunders erupted with even greater fury at that moment.
But under the continuous sword strikes, that purely instinctual small world life fluctuation seemed to surrender, offering a piece of heavenly authority.
This was an instinctual compromise!
The star slaying was initially successful!
Looking at the ball of heavenly authority materializing before him, Xu Jin sneered coldly, unceremoniously absorbing it to begin refining.
In the void, Astro Lord Ba Chengfeng watched this scene, dumbfounded.
He could not discern any flaws.
But the suddenly manifesting heavenly authority, that he recognized.
What kind of logic is this?
Sitting there continuously invoking divine soul power, and suddenly heavenly authority manifests?
If it were that simple, he would have already obtained the heavenly authority of the Thunder Realm and acquired the Innate Treasure Material Thousand-year Thunder Bronze.
He was utterly baffled.
Immediately, Ba Chengfeng reported this strange discovery to the True Monarch of Heavenly Punishment whom he served!
In the grand hall, after reading Astro Lord Ba Chengfeng’s report, the True Monarch of Heavenly Punishment’s eyes suddenly widened, even the vertical eye between his brows opened a bit, from which thunder light burst forth, exuding a terrifying aura!
Simultaneously, the True Monarch’s eyes also erupted with terrifying brilliance.
"Star Slaying Technique!"
"Seven Kills True Monarch!"
"No, it should be an heir of Seven Kills!"
In the next moment, the True Monarch of Heavenly Punishment stood up abruptly, "The heir of an old acquaintance of Seven Kills has appeared, what a huge surprise!
Even if it’s a long journey, I must personally make the trip!"
A few breaths later, the True Monarch of Heavenly Punishment transformed into a streak of thunder light, piercing straight into the firmament!
