Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 1673: Chapter 686: First Among the Three Series

In an instant, Zhu Shizhen felt as though there were thorns on his back.

The gaze of those hundreds of young women seemed eager to pierce him right then and there.

Especially those young women who believed Xu Jin was interested in them.

After ten breaths, the bell resounded throughout the Dongxuan Dao Palace, and the deep voice of True Monarch Tianzhang began to echo.

”The first round of the Dao selection has concluded, with a total of twenty-three thousand people selected. Three days from now, the second round of the Dao selection will take place!

The second round will primarily assess Divine Soul Cultivation and willpower!

Now, we shall distribute the rewards for the first round of the Tao Rules Heavenly Road assessment.”

The moment the voice appeared, spots of Starlight flew out from in front of True Monarch Tianzhang, who had revealed his form, falling with precision like scattered flowers towards the candidates in front of the various Tao Rules Heavenly Roads.

Among them, Xu Jin’s side reaped the most.

A total of ten beams of Starlight descended.

Three silver pieces, three purple-black pieces, three green wind pieces, and one scarlet piece, making up a total of ten Enlightenment Stones that exuded a mysterious aura, floated in front of Xu Jin.

Looking at the ten Enlightenment Stones floating before Xu Jin, even Yutang King Zhu Shizhen displayed an envious gaze.

His eyes were intensely fervent.

This scene was caught by Xu Jin, ”Your Highness, don’t tell me you also need these?”

”Need them, why wouldn’t I need them!”

”Hmm, even if I need them, I won’t be giving them to you!”

As he spoke, Xu Jin had already collected all ten Enlightenment Stones into his Sumeru Space; they were treasures after all.

Each Enlightenment Stone could at least lead to the enlightenment of two related Tao Rules, and if used wisely, even three are possible; more importantly, it can be used for Dao performance.

And Dao performance can be used to refine Divine Skills!

Beside him, Yutang King Zhu Shizhen smiled bitterly, ”To be blunt, even for me, the Yutang King, my mansion has only prepared three Enlightenment Stones!

So far, I’ve used only one.

The other two, I can only use them after my cultivation reaches the late Ninth Tier.”

This answer surprised Xu Jin, ”So precious? Aren’t you a True Monarch heritage mansion?”

”Do you know how these things are acquired?”

”How are they acquired?” Xu Jin was puzzled; he truly did not know the origin of the Enlightenment Stones.

”They are refined from the bodies of slain or sitting Star Lords.

And it must be a Great Star Monarch, Star Monarch, or Star Monarch for them to have it.

Little Star Monarchs do not have it in their bodies.

For the same series, a Great Star Monarch can refine at most one piece, a Star Monarch at most two, and a Star Monarch at most three to four pieces from their bodies.

Do you now understand their preciousness?” Yutang King Zhu Shizhen said.

Suddenly, Xu Jin felt the ten Enlightenment Stones in his hand become quite hot.

Doesn’t this mean the death of at least four or five Star Lords, or even more?

Their value is truly unimaginable!

”Let’s go, go to your courtyard and talk more.”

The end of the first round of the Dao selection immediately set the nobles waiting outside into motion, with some Mansion Masters leading servants and carrying thick gift lists directly.

Zhu Shizhen just scanned with a glance and found that no fewer than ten noble families were heading toward Xu Jin!

By the time Zhu Shizhen and Xu Jin returned to the temporary residence of Xu Jin, a candidate for selection, twelve nobles had followed, trying to catch a son-in-law or recruit Xu Jin.

As for the dissatisfied gaze of Yutang King Zhu Shizhen, no one paid attention.

Fair competition; what’s there to fear?

Xu Jin is not part of your Zhu family!

”Ladies and gentlemen, whoever’s family has gifts prepared thicker than those from my Yutang Royal Mansion, please follow me inside.” As he spoke, Yutang King Zhu Shizhen directly projected a long gift list through Starlight.

In front of the courtyard gate, sounds of gasping arose in unison.

Upon seeing the gift list, the twelve nobles helplessly turned around.
