Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 2048: Chapter 881: Emperor’s Presence and Consecutive Breakthroughs

"Miracle Merit?"

Wuyang Star Island Guardian Bai Changshan heard Mr. Guan’s proposal and was quite surprised. "You’re even willing to give that up?

According to Battle Zone regulations, getting a Medium-sized Star Realm Fragment lets you apply for Miracle Merit.

But in theory, you two commanding guardians made contributions and can each apply for Miracle Merit once.

You know better than anyone how valuable Miracle Merit is, and you’re on the verge of a breakthrough!

And you’re applying Miracle Merit for a kid who’s only been here a bit over a month, you’re not worried the other True Monarchs will have opinions?"

"Opinions my ass! If anyone can keep bringing me Star Realm Fragments one after another, doesn’t matter small or medium, I’ll apply for him!

If anyone dares to kick up a fuss, I’ll slap him silly with my big mouth!

Besides, our Changxing Star Island isn’t like your Wuyang Star Island." Mr. Guan chuckled darkly.

Bai Changshan, who had just been Yin-Yang’ed by Mr. Guan, looked thoroughly depressed.

Today he’d really been Yin-Yang’ed to the limit, and couldn’t even refute it.

Zou Shan that bastard really wasn’t giving him any face today.

The problem was, the guy was also an Eight Tribulations True Monarch, and hadn’t broken military discipline, so he couldn’t do a damn thing!

But when he heard Mr. Guan say this, Bai Changshan’s heart stirred. "You mean that Small Star Realm Fragment you captured one and a half months ago also has a lot to do with Xu Jin?"

"He took first merit, what do you think?" Mr. Guan glared.

Bai Changshan was stunned.

All of a sudden, he felt a bit jealous of Mr. Guan.

If Wuyang Star Island had someone like this, he’d have to spoil him too.

Suddenly, he thought of the Saint Heir candidate Ling Fei he’d chosen for Wuyang Star Island.

Also the peerless genius who ranked fourth in the preliminary Saint Heir selection round.

So why hasn’t he shown anything?

He’s been at Wuyang Star Island for almost two months, joined three battles big and small, and his highest kill—don’t say a Four Tribulations True Monarch, he hasn’t even taken down a single True Monarch.

He’s only killed one Star Monarch.

This won’t do. When I get back I have to nag that guy, he needs to learn from Xu Jin!

"Just say if you’re co-signing or not?" Seeing Bai Changshan lost in thought, Mr. Guan got anxious.

The main issue was that in the merits he’d written up for Xu Jin, one item was a bit flimsy: that Xu Jin lured away the Alien Race’s main battle force, buying precious time for capturing the Star Realm Fragment.

Even with True Monarch Blood Crystals as evidence, the Battle Zone might not acknowledge it.

Just like Bai Changshan said, Miracle Merit is too precious.

All these High-level True Monarchs are staring at it with hungry eyes.

But the opportunity was rare; now that Xu Jin had reached this threshold, he wanted to help Xu Jin apply.

"I’ll co-sign, I’ll co-sign! But I have one condition!" Bai Changshan said.

"After what you pulled today, Bai, you still have the face to set conditions?" Mr. Guan glared.

"No, Hei, what I mean is—if I’m doing a good deed, my name has to be left on it." As he spoke, Bai Changshan glanced at Xu Jin who was quietly cultivating in the distance.

Hearing this, Mr. Guan instantly understood, and looked at Bai with a grin. "Bai, you’re being tacky!

But don’t worry, I get it, I get it!

If it goes through, I’ll definitely keep your name on it!"

At this, Bai Changshan got anxious. "Even if it doesn’t go through, you still have to keep my name. What I want to show is my attitude!

Zou Shan that bastard almost got me killed today."

"Fine, your name stays either way!"

Watching Bai Changshan stamp his seal and use Divine Thought to inscribe his subjective opinion on the Jade Scroll civil clerk document for Xu Jin’s Miracle Merit, Mr. Guan was very pleased.

It wasn’t that he was so magnanimous.

The main thing was, he wanted to use this to motivate Xu Jin, and also to express his gratitude.

He knew very clearly that Xu Jin wouldn’t be staying here long—three years at most.

But no matter what, he was already profiting!

Profiting big!

Lots of Star Islands go years without opening for business; he’d opened twice in less than two months.

And one of them was a Medium-sized Star Realm Fragment close to a large fragment.

This was good fortune many Star Realms couldn’t get their hands on in a hundred years.

As long as it opened, how could his merit as Guardian be small?

The key is, he felt the benefits Xu Jin would bring to Changxing Star Island had just begun.

*****

At the center of the Star Realm Fragment, Xu Jin had just rapidly comprehended, evolved, and suppressed the two Space Law Paths contained here.

This pushed his recently tempered and grown Space Lifebound Suppression Artifact to its limit once more.

Evolving and suppressing nineteen Space Law Paths!

However, when he’d used True Monarch Blood Crystals for enlightenment earlier, because his Lifebound Suppression Artifact had reached its limit, there were still three Space Law Paths that had been evolved but not suppressed.

At this point, the growth level of his Lifebound Suppression Artifact could no longer keep up with Xu Jin’s speed in comprehending and evolving Law Paths.

Xu Jin felt that after today, he might consider using Time Heaven and Earth Star Will to speed up his Lifebound Suppression Artifact’s growth.

That way, his strength could have an explosive surge.

With a stir of Divine Thought, Xu Jin started to comprehend another Fire Series Law Path, but just as he began he abandoned it.

It was a duplicate.

On to the next one.

Right now, his Fire Series Lifebound Suppression Artifact was suppressing twenty Fire Element Law Paths, but Xu Jin’s comprehension progress was already at twenty-seven.

Far ahead of it.

The other elements were also one or two Law Paths ahead.

The main reason was that using True Monarch Blood Crystals recently had been extremely effective.

While he was comprehending Law Paths, the Star Power in this Medium-sized Star Realm Fragment was practically erupting into Xu Jin’s body, rapidly boosting his Cultivation Level.

Especially the gushing speed of the Star Power made Xu Jin suspect that if his Cultivation Level were any weaker, he might actually get injured just from Cultivation.

Compared to the Small Star Realm Fragment they captured last time, this Medium-sized Star Realm Fragment’s Star Power was infinitely richer.

In just two hours, it directly pushed the Cultivation Level of his two internal Star Realms up to Little Star Monarch Peak.
