August 20th, within the Yutang Royal City’s Ritual Officer mansion.
Xu Jin looked at the newly refined Star Monarch-level Yan Dao Pearl before him; it was finally plete.
The difficulty and time consumption of refining a Star Monarch-level Yan Dao Pearl are exponentially greater than that of a Little Star Monarch-level Yan Dao Pearl.
After trying with a Little Star Monarch’s Essence Blood Pearl, Xu Jin proceeded to use Star Monarch Jiali’s Essence Blood Pearl to start refining the Yan Dao Pearl.
Unexpectedly, it took a span of four days.
Now, it was finally a success.
Inside the Yan Dao Pearl in front of him, eight Gold Series Law Paths hovered and floated.
Just from this alone, one could tell the strength of Star Monarch Jiali.
Normally, understanding seven Law Paths of a single series and reaching the Star Power cultivation level is enough to bee a Star Monarch.
But Jiali fully prehended eight Gold Series Law Paths.
Unfortunately, the Earth Series and Wind Series Law Paths that Jiali additionally cultivated have dissipated.
This is the limitation of the Yan Dao Pearl; it can only refine single series Law Paths into a Yan Dao Pearl.
As for retaining multiple series of Law Paths, according to Zhu Linxiao, it is possible but requires the aid and cooperation of other treasures, at a greater cost.
It’s somewhat like the Law Heavenly Road.
The Law Heavenly Road left by Emperor Dongxuan to the Dongxuan Dao Palace is actually a higher-tier manifestation of the Yan Dao Pearl.
Xu Jin estimates that this Star Monarch-level Yan Dao Pearl with eight Law Paths could potentially yield dozens of drops of All Heaven Star Dew.
Based on the current progress, with a few dozen more drops of All Heaven Star Dew, his eight Star Towers would reach perfection, and his cultivation level would be sufficient to break through to the Ninth Tier.
Originally taking several decades to acplish, now it seems one year is about enough.
This speed is indeed fast.
The previously acquired thirty-three drops of All Heaven Star Dew, along with the initial batch of thirty drops sent by Zhu Linxiao from liquidating some supplies, add to a total of sixty-three drops in hand.
Over the past half-month, Xu Jin’s training schedule has been packed, consuming two to three drops of All Heaven Star Dew daily.
Up until now, forty drops of All Heaven Star Dew have been consumed, leaving twenty-three drops in hand.
In his inner view, the eight Star Towers surrounding the Heaven and Earth Cloud Tower have undergone changes.
First is the Space Star Tower.
This time, Xu Jin’s cultivation strategy has changed somewhat.
He prioritized refining the Space Star Tower so that even without an outburst, the power of the Space Star Technique would bee quite formidable.
Currently, the Space Star Tower and Thunder Series Star Tower have both been refined to the maximum, each reaching one hundred and eight layers.
After refining the Space Star Tower to the maximum, the strategy for the other Star Towers remains the same as before.
Currently, the other six Star Towers have all reached sixty-seven layers.
pared to before, they have increased by more than ten layers, and the explosive power of the Chaos Path-Defending Killing Move of eight stars uniting has once again increased.
At present, Xu Jin still possesses twenty-three drops of All Heaven Star Dew, all of which can be used to continue refining the other six Star Towers. It is estimated that after consumption, the other six Star Towers could be refined to at least seventy-nine layers.
Theoretically, Xu Jin would need a maximum of fifty-eight more drops of All Heaven Star Dew to break through to the Ninth Tier.
If Zhu Linxiao sends more from the liquidation, Xu Jin sells this Star Monarch’s Yan Dao Pearl, and there won’t be much lacking.
If all goes smoothly, Xu Jin could breakthrough to the Ninth Tier within one to two months.
By then, the world will be different.
Previously on Dongxuan Island, the base number for the explosive power of the Chaos Killing Move of eight stars uniting was the lowest number of refined layers in the Star Towers—fifty-four layers.
If all eight Star Towers are refined to one hundred and eight layers, then when executing the Chaos Killing Move of eight stars uniting, it means the explosive power will once again double.
Previously on Dongxuan Island, eight stars united were infused with eighty strands of Chaotic Star Gang, directly causing heavy injury to Star Monarch Jiali.
When the power of the eight stars united doubles again, Xu Jin might be able to eliminate Star Monarch Jiali in an instant.
There’s also an enhancement to the Chaotic Star Gang.
If the Space Lifebound Spiritual Treasure can be refined, by then, even when facing a True Monarch, bined with the Divine Skill of the Tai Xu Heart Inquiry Platform, Xu Jin would have a bit of life-saving assurance.
Of course, this is merely assurance; the premise must be a breakthrough to the Ninth Tier.
After inspecting the many Star Towers, Xu Jin withdrew his Divine Thought, intending to once again absorb and refine the All Heaven Star Dew to continue refining the Star Towers.
Today, Xu Jin already received notification from the Dao Palace.
Tomorrow, the Heavenly Patrol True Monarch will inspect those under the Dao Palace’s jurisdiction, all Dao disciples must gather at the Dao Palace at dawn and adjust their state, as the Heavenly Patrol True Monarch might review the progress of the Dao disciples’ cultivation.
The information about this Heavenly Patrol True Monarch, Ding Moqiu, had long been placed on Xu Jin’s desk by Zhu Linxiao.
He is a favored general of Emperor Dongxuan; otherwise, he would not have obtained such a lucrative position as a Heavenly Patrol True Monarch.
However, this person has intricate ties with the True Monarch of Heavenly Punishment, especially in his earlier years before being a True Monarch, he was a direct subordinate of the True Monarch of Heavenly Punishment.
Later, under the guidance of the Emperor, he successfully became a True Monarch, and his status significantly increased.
But he still maintains a close relationship with the True Monarch of Heavenly Punishment.
Originally, it was nothing, but this Heavenly Patrol True Monarch specifically wanted to review the Dao Child, and according to Zhu Linxiao, it was the Heavenly Patrol True Monarch who proactively mentioned Xu Jin.
This made Xu Jin feel that the intention of the Heavenly Patrol True Monarch was not friendly, most likely related to the True Monarch of Heavenly Punishment.
However, according to Zhu Linxiao, the Heavenly Patrol True Monarch holds great power and authority but is also bound by various regulations. Even if he really wanted to target Xu Jin, he would have to do so within the rules.
The Tongxuan Domain, with its Five Great Star Realms, more than thirty Middle Worlds, and over thirty thousand Small Worlds, could only flourish and develop stably under the rule of Emperor Dongxuan because of rules.
Without rules, there would be chaos internally.
All those experts with mid-to-high military ranks are the biggest beneficiaries and maintainers within this system of rules.
Otherwise, if those with great bat power could easily decide life and death for those with military merits, who could cultivate in peace?
Therefore, Xu Jin isn’t worried about tomorrow’s Dao Palace Review.
He doesn’t believe that the Heavenly Patrol True Monarch could accuse him of a crime without cause.
He continued to cultivate with peace of mind, beginning to refine the All Heaven Star Dew.
A drop of All Heaven Star Dew had just started refining when the starlight within Xu Jin’s Thunder Series Star Tower suddenly flickered slightly and then returned to silence.
Xu Jin’s heart moved, and in an instant of his divine thought sinking into the Thunder Series Star Tower, a joyful expression appeared on his face.
It was seen that one of the three Thunder Series Law Paths entwined on the lifebound spiritual treasure Chaos Thunder Spear, immersed inside the Thunder Series Star Tower, had been pletely integrated with the spear, merging into one.
With a thought, the Chaos Thunder Spear instantly appeared in Xu Jin’s palm, even the surrounding thunder light now carried the aura of that Law Path.
This means that from now on, Xu Jin doesn’t need to intentionally activate it; every move of the Chaos Thunder Spear will unleash that Law Path.
The other two Thunder Series Law Paths have only been half integrated and require full activation to unleash their full power.
With slight sensing, Xu Jin discovered that the aura of his Chaos Thunder Spear had increased once again, and the strength of the spear itself had also significantly increased.
This signifies that Xu Jin’s Thunder Series lifebound spiritual treasure has officially upgraded to a lifebound suppression artifact.
From the pletely integrated Thunder Series Law Path, it is just an Initial Tier lifebound suppression artifact.
But by Xu Jin’s judgment, his Chaos Thunder Spear, primarily made from Chaos Elemental Materials, now boasts power likely reaching or even exceeding the level of a top-grade suppression artifact.
Even if a standard True Monarch Killing Weapon were to strike it with full force, it might not shatter this Chaos Thunder Spear.
However, the greatest change in this lifebound spiritual treasure upgrading to a lifebound suppression artifact is that it now can at least bear another Thunder Series Law Path.
Currently, Xu Jin has evolved four Thunder Series Law Paths, three on the Chaos Thunder Spear and one on the Heaven and Earth Cloud Tower.
Now, he can evolve a fifth one.
For ordinary cultivators, evolving a Law Path is a very cautious affair. Even if they are fully enlightened, pleting the evolution requires long-term seclusion.
Generally speaking, even top geniuses might need one or two months for seclusion, and ordinary cultivators might take three to five months or even a couple of years in one go to successfully evolve a single Law Path, which is quite mon.
However, it’s different for Xu Jin.
Previously, at the peak of the Thunder Law Heavenly Road, Xu Jin had already pleted the evolution, but due to the limited Law Path-carrying capacity of his lifebound spiritual treasure at the time, he hadn’t pleted the last step!
Thus, Xu Jin immediately stopped cultivating, and as his Daoist Embryo surged from his body, he activated the Clearing Soul Star Pattern, Enlightening Pattern Star Pattern, and Candou Platform, mobilizing his lifebound Star to fully assist in evolving the fifth Thunder Series Law Path.
Because time was limited and Xu Jin wanted to plete it quickly, he chose one of the Thunder Series Law Paths he was most familiar with from the Mysterious Star Gate atop the Thunder Law Heavenly Road to begin evolving.
With the assistance of the Candou Platform, Xu Jin rapidly sensed each Thunder Series Tao Rule and then began constantly bining them.
This wasn’t an open-book exam anymore, but a copying exam.
Especially importantly, the Chaos Thunder Spear that had upgraded to a lifebound suppression artifact saw a dramatic increase in power.
The Thunder Series Tao Rule was detected by Xu Jin, and as soon as it was sensed, the lifebound suppression artifact Chaos Thunder Spear’s thunder light just flickered slightly before stabilizing, not requiring Xu Jin to spend extra effort controlling it.
A plete Thunder Series Law Path continued to perfect and manifest in front of Xu Jin.
Boom!
After four hours, with a crackling sound in the quiet room, a thunder light lit up the entire room like daylight. Amidst the swirling thunder light, the lifebound suppression artifact Thunder Spear just slightly sank.
In the next instant, this newly evolved Thunder Series Law Path entwined upon it, like a jail-hardened man seeing a beautiful maiden.
In an instant, another Thunder Series Law Path had attached itself to the Chaos Thunder Spear.
Up to now, Xu Jin has evolved a total of five Thunder Series Law Paths.
A newly ascended Star Monarch is only at this level.
bat power increased once more.
Moreover, looking at the other two Thunder Series Law Paths entwined on the lifebound suppression artifact Chaos Thunder Spear, Xu Jin estimated that it wouldn’t take long before he could evolve one or two more Thunder Series Law Paths.
And at this time, it was just four quarters past 5 a.m., with half an hour left until the assembly time.
With another increase in strength, Xu Jin was in extremely joyous spirits, wishing he could find an expert to spar with and test his true bat power immediately.
A few moments later, Xu Jin’s divine thought routinely sank into the Candou Platform, continuing the daily operation of infusing Chaos Rhythm Power.
The moment his divine thought submerged, joy appeared!
The Chaos Elemental Material had actually succeeded!
