The combined Star Power slowly coalesced into a massive storm, and at the center of this storm were Jiang Liu and his companions.
Moreover, the storm grew larger and larger, gradually forming a rotating silver cylinder in mid-air.
Then the silver cylinder was divided into fourteen parts, which then enveloped Jiang Liu and the others.
It turns out that the Star Power is distributed according to the magnitude of the pulling force exerted by each person.
Judging from the thickness of the scattered silver cylinders, it is clear that Jiang Liu's is the largest, followed by Flowing Cloud Matriarch, and the smallest is Tang Wanyu's.
Immediately, everyone in the square underwent a strengthening and tempering process using the Star Power.
Unintentionally, the group discovered another problem in cultivation: when everyone gathered together, the Star Power was greater than when each person drew upon the Star Power individually.
Even without looking at other people's expressions, just by looking at Tang Wanyu's constant screams, one could tell how much pain she was enduring from the Star Power she was drawing upon.
However, Jiang Liu and the others did not interfere with Tang Wanyu's actions, letting her deal with it on her own.
The group continued their cultivation throughout the night, until the moon dimmed and the stars sparsed, and the sky began to brighten. Only then did they all cease their practice.
Jiang Liu slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, a look of joy on his face. He hadn't expected that cultivating with his senior sisters would make him progress faster than cultivating alone.
He actually strengthened twelve bones in one night. You should know that Jiang Liu had estimated that he could only strengthen eleven bones at most tonight.
The result was even greater than expected, indicating that when everyone worked together, the Star Power drawn down was far greater than that drawn down by one person alone.
Jiang Liu looked up at his senior sisters and Flowing Cloud Matriarch, and was about to greet everyone.
As a result, before Jiang Liu could react, the senior sisters sitting around him all flew away rapidly, leaving only a lingering, foul odor on the square.
As for Flowing Cloud Matriarch, she had already left ahead of time. The stench she left behind last night must have left a deep impression on her.
Jiang Liu also flew away quickly; he couldn't stay in this place any longer.
After flying back to his courtyard, Jiang Liu quickly washed up, ate breakfast, Jiang Liu continued cultivating Nebula Extinction.
They cultivated peacefully for the entire day until evening, when Flowing Cloud Matriarch gathered all his True Inheritor Disciple together to cultivate the Star Cloud Saint Art.
Flowing Cloud Matriarch has also discovered that the more people gather together to cultivate, the more Star Power they will draw in, and the faster their body will be strengthened.
Therefore, tonight, Flowing Cloud Matriarch simply gathered everyone together for cultivation.
Moreover, she plans to follow the same method after the other Grandmaster and elders have also cultivated the new Star Cloud Saint Art.
Two Grandmaster Elders will join the cultivation tonight, but Jiang Liu won't need to use his Star Power to guide their cultivation.
Flowing Cloud Matriarch planned to try it out with Yue Yue, since they couldn't rely entirely on Jiang Liu to do these things.
If successful, more people will cultivate in the future, and there will be others to share the burden, so that we can manage.
Tonight, Jiang Liu focused solely on his cultivation, paying no attention to others, and no one bothered Jiang Liu.
However, the progress of the enhancement tonight brought Jiang Liu an even bigger surprise.
Tonight, fourteen bones were strengthened. In just four nights, forty-five out of two hundred and six bones have been strengthened. This progress is truly beyond Jiang Liu's expectations.
If this pace of strengthening continues, the bones will be fully strengthened in just a few days.
Next, strengthen the blood vessels, muscles, and skin. Once the entire body is strengthened, you won't have to flee in such a sorry state the next time you encounter Lu Tianheng.
The order of strengthening the body is the reverse of the four stages of body tempering before a martial artist Entry Grade, so this is a second stage of body tempering.
Jiang Liu looked inward at his forty-five bones that faintly emitted a golden light, and felt very satisfied.
Jiang Liu could feel the unique hardness in each of these strengthened bones.
Once all the bones are fully strengthened, it is believed that the bones throughout the body will exude a powerful aura.
Jiang Liu returned to his courtyard, washed up, ate breakfast, and was preparing to continue cultivating Nebula Extinction.
Suddenly, Flowing Cloud Matriarch and Gongsun Haoyue appeared in the sky above the courtyard.
Jiang Liu looked up at the two sect leaders and secretly compared them, discovering that the two really did have many similarities.
The two are roughly equal in strength and age, though it's hard to tell how old they are. Both are equally beautiful and charming, maintaining their youthful appearance.
However, there seems to be a faint pressure emanating uncontrollably from Flowing Cloud Matriarch's body.
The oppressive aura emanating from this should be the effect of Flowing Cloud Matriarch's body strengthening and tempering over the past few days.
Jiang Liu didn't know the difference between using this method to temper the body between Peak Grandmaster and Grandmaster, so he was somewhat taken aback by the uncontrollable pressure emanating from Flowing Cloud Matriarch.
After finishing their cultivation last night, everyone quickly dispersed, so Jiang Liu didn't have time to find out anything.
It seems there are some differences between the two, but Jiang Liu doesn't know the specifics yet.
"Sect Master, Sect Leader Gongsun," Jiang Liu hurriedly bowed to the two.
Flowing Cloud Matriarch nodded to Gongsun Haoyue, and Gongsun Haoyue said to Jiang Liu, "Jiang Liu, I would like to ask you to go to the Star Moon Sect to assist us in cultivating the Star Cloud Saint Art."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Liu turned to look at Flowing Cloud Matriarch.
Flowing Cloud Matriarch nodded to Jiang Liu, indicating that she had agreed.
Seeing that Flowing Cloud Matriarch nodded, Jiang Liu then nodded to Gongsun Haoyue, indicating that he also agreed.
When Gongsun Haoyue saw that Jiang Liu had agreed, a smile immediately appeared on her face, and she said, "Alright! Then I'll wait for you at the Star Moon Sect."
After speaking, Gongsun Haoyue nodded slightly to Flowing Cloud Matriarch and Jiang Liu, then her figure flickered and she left.
As Flowing Cloud Matriarch watched Gongsun Haoyue leave, she had a feeling that she had made a mistake in agreeing to let Jiang Liu go to the Star Moon Sect.
Immediately, Flowing Cloud Matriarch shook his head, suppressing this unreasonable speculation.
Flowing Cloud Matriarch turned to Jiang Liu and said, "Since you've already agreed to Gongsun Haoyue's request, then you should go and come back as soon as possible!"
Jiang Liu nodded, indicating that he understood.
Afterwards, Flowing Cloud Matriarch also left Jiang Liu's courtyard.
Jiang Liu quickly packed his things, then carried his bundle out of his courtyard and headed towards Qiancheng.
Before going to the Star Moon Sect, he needed to visit the Ascension Tower in Qiancheng. Not only did he want to visit Old Man Luo, but more importantly, he wanted to learn about some recent events in the Great Qian Dynasty, as well as the situation in Yunzhou and the Vast Righteous Sect.
