Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 1928: Chapter 817: Yu’s Loneliness and the Unwelcome Guest

It seems like in about twenty days, it can upgrade to Chaos Elemental Material.

If the opportunity is right, Xu Jin will hand it over to Yu.

The reason for this is that Yu brought Xu Jin to meet True Monarch Qingxia this time. Although the two are life-and-death friends and their conversation was quite pleasant,

Xu Jin still heard something, and sensitively perceived a trace of loneliness in Yu’s heart.

According to True Monarch Qingxia, five hundred years or even three hundred years ago, Yu could easily handle him, whether in cultivation level or combat power, Yu was far superior to True Monarch Qingxia.

But things changed after three hundred years, especially up to today.

Not mentioning anything else, True Monarch Qingxia is at Nine Tribulations, while Yu is at Five Tribulations.

The gap is too big.

The meeting was indeed joyful.

But the loneliness in Yu’s heart is also true.

This is probably the reason why Yu hasn’t come to find True Monarch Qingxia for decades to a hundred years, but this time, because he had to bring Xu Jin over.

In any case, Yu is considered loyal enough.

Xu Jin wants to lend Yu a hand.

But how to explain giving Yu two pieces of Space Chaos Elemental Material in one go, Xu Jin hasn’t figured out yet.

"Regardless, let’s get it ready for Yu first."

Xu Jin’s divine thought sank into the Candou Platform, and he casually took out a batch of upgraded innate spiritual material and put in another batch.

Meanwhile, his divine thought sank into the Star Ruins Primordial Sand that was placed inside the Candou Platform for nourishment a long time ago.

After observing and sensing for a few moments, Xu Jin frowned slightly.

This Star Ruins Primordial Sand has been nourished by the Star Lamp of the Dipper Platform for several days. From the aura sensation, the star power aura it contains has changed slightly, but not much.

Yet the most crucial part is that the star vitality it holds did not change at all.

"After so many days without any changes, it seems the Candou Platform is unable to nourish and upgrade this Star Ruins Primordial Sand, so let’s not waste the space."

The most important and core part of the Star Ruins Primordial Sand is the star vitality it contains.

Thinking about it, it’s also understandable that the Candou Platform cannot enhance its vitality.

Simply take it out and free up two spots for innate spiritual material.

[Yu, I’ve finished wandering around and got my affairs done. When are we heading to the next Great World?] Returning, Xu Jin transmitted the Starlight Transmission to True Monarch You Yu.

True Monarch You Yu responded rather straightforwardly, [Today, two hours from now, we depart.]

Yu does care a lot about Xu Jin’s affairs.

Two hours later, they said goodbye to True Monarch Qingxia who continually tried to keep them from leaving, and went straight to the Teleportation Array with Xu Jin.

The Baili Star Realm leads directly to the Teleportation Array of the Shisong Star Realm, and having the Identity Token makes it quite convenient.

On the mountaintop, True Monarch Qingxia watched the departing elder and the young one step on the star and felt a bit sorrowful.

At his age, at his cultivation level, it is incredibly difficult to make new friends.

Ninety-nine percent of them come for his status and cultivation level.

It’s hard to find genuine friendships.

That’s why he cherishes those life-and-death friendships from the past, like True Monarch You Yu.

"It’s just a pity for old Yu... Originally, he was the most hopeful among us to step onto the Emperor Path, yet... such a pity..."

With a sigh, True Monarch Qingxia shook his head slowly, returning to his palace.

Once inside the empty great hall, seeing the maids, disciples, and guards who were respectful to him, lowering their gazes without daring to breathe as soon as he glanced at them.

At that moment, his heart was filled with even more lament.

Really... it’s lonely at the top!

*****

On March 28, True Monarch You Yu successfully led Xu Jin to the Shisong Star Realm.

In the Shisong Star Realm, True Monarch You Yu did not invite friends, just said he was familiar with the place, having served as a Heavenly Patrol Envoy here in the past, and set up some family assets.

After taking Xu Jin to experience the local customs of the Shisong Star Realm, True Monarch You Yu took Xu Jin back to his villa.

Despite looking like an old rascal, the villa is not lacking.

Located on the mountainside of a famous mountain in the Shisong Star Realm, it spans several thousand acres, with disciples and servants numbering over ten thousand, akin to a self-sufficient manor.

Upon seeing the long-absent True Monarch return to the villa, the entire villa was delighted, especially Xu Jin, was a most pleasant surprise.

As for Xu Jin, he simply acquainted himself with a few people and then let True Monarch You Yu arrange a quiet room for him to cultivate.

However, before cultivating, Xu Jin suddenly developed an interest.

"Yu, let’s try again." Xu Jin transmitted a voice message to True Monarch You Yu.

"It’s been so soon, how much progress could you have made?" True Monarch You Yu was puzzled.

"You’ll know when you try it."

"You brat really treat me as a free sparring partner!"

Although True Monarch You Yu chastised him verbally, he stepped on the star, ascending straight to the sky with Xu Jin, and commenced the battle in the high-altitude clouds.

As the Daoist Embryo activated, the third Sword Element Divine Power was immediately launched.

A silver crescent moon suddenly appeared from nowhere, encircling True Monarch You Yu without any warning.

"Duyue’s divine skill is indeed formidable, hard to defend against, but executed by you, its might is somewhat unimpressive!"

While critiquing, True Monarch You Yu exerted full force, intent on breaking free like last time within half a moment.

But after slashing three times, True Monarch You Yu’s expression changed.

A moment later, the freed True Monarch You Yu looked at Xu Jin with astonishment, "This might has doubled, hasn’t it? It’s not, I heard Duyue say that the Moon Eclipsing Divine Power has great power, but increasing its might is extremely difficult.

How come within just ten days, you doubled its might?"

"Yu, your talents are top-notch, don’t you know!"

Xu Jin laughed as he headed straight to the quiet room, immediately activating the high-tier Seven Killings Sword Heart, preparing to condense the Star Sky Seal of the Shisong Star Realm.

Leaving True Monarch You Yu bewildered.

"Not... top-notch talent can really be this extraordinary?"

...

A day later, Xu Jin was awakened by a commotion.

The Mingji Star Pattern slightly moved, instantly sensing that an Eight Tribulation True Monarch visited Youyu’s villa, causing a bit of a disturbance.

Seeing this, Xu Jin smiled, also feeling some sympathy for Yu.

This is probably Yu’s once close friends visiting again.

It’s just those old friends each have stronger cultivation levels than him, even though they’re rarely reunited, Yu probably isn’t very happy.

Xu Jin figured this might be one reason why True Monarch You Yu specifically applied to guard the Black Tower Island, at least partly.

It’s quite similar to Xu Jin’s past.

Before making a name for himself or when he was a bit down, he would avoid greeting classmates or fellow townsfolk if possible.

Xu Jin understands Yu’s feelings at this moment.

This also makes Xu Jin think about giving Yu a surprise sometime.

The key lies in explaining the two pieces of Space Chaos Elemental Material.

Laughing, Xu Jin prepared to continue sensing and condensing the Star Sky Seal.

But suddenly, Xu Jin’s expression changed as he sensed the situation in the front courtyard.

The situation in the front courtyard doesn’t look right.

A guest has indeed arrived, but this Eight Tribulation True Monarch seems to be a troublesome visitor!

In the next instant, sensing something, Xu Jin instantly rose.
