Star Cultivation Techniques
Lu Yang felt that although he wasn't exactly handsome, he wasn't so bad-looking that the other person would mistake his gender.
He wanted to say he was a man, but the thought of the other person's affection for his senior brother made him hesitate.
He wanted to say he was a woman, but considering the high price he would have to pay to buy the star chart, it didn't seem like such a big deal.
Anyway, I bought it just to guess what the senior sister's Golden Core was like, just for fun.
It's best to leave.
After saying that, the senior brother wanted to slap himself twice. What kind of nonsense was that!
His two henchmen were even more embarrassed, as this was a common problem of their senior brother; he was prone to saying the wrong thing when he was nervous.
The bad news is that my senior is often nervous.
I heard that the Palace Master suggested that my senior brother consider switching to silent meditation.
"No, I meant, senior brother, the Star Chart is something I admire that you use for cultivation. Could you part with it and give it to me?"
He thought for a moment and decided to start by organizing his thoughts with a self-introduction.
"I am Gu Qisheng, a disciple of Changhong Palace, with Foundation Establishment Early Stage level. I have come here to participate in the grand competition. Judging from your appearance, you are about the same age as me, so you should also be participating in the grand competition."
Gu Qisheng was not yet eighteen years old, but he already had the Foundation Establishment Early Stage. This cultivation speed was enough to rank him among the top five in the history of Changhong Palace.
Although it is said that one can freely change one's appearance when one reaches a high level of cultivation, based on Gu Qisheng's experience, if the other party is Golden Core or Nascent Soul Realm old monster, they would not buy things in this kind of place. Those old monsters have lived for a long time, are experienced, and have their own purchasing channels.
Lu Yang had heard of Changhong Palace; it was a first-rate sect in Jizhou, but he didn't know much more about it.
"I am indeed here to participate in the grand competition. Perhaps we will meet on the arena. As for this star chart, please take care of it, junior brother." Lu Yang took another step back.
Seeing Lu Yang retreating further and further away, Gu Qisheng quickly explained, "I spoke carelessly just now and confused the terms of address. Actually, one of my senior sisters needs a star chart for cultivation."
Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou both breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this; Meng Jingzhou had almost unleashed his "Single Curse Fist" just now.
Lu Yang laughed and said, "I'm only interested in the star charts out of interest; they're not as important as Junior Brother Gu's marriage."
Gu Qisheng was overjoyed and took out 1,500 Spirit Stone to buy the map.
1,500 yuan is not a small amount for him, but it's worth it to please his True Disciple sister!
He opened the star chart with great anticipation, only to find it covered in bloodstains, making it almost impossible to see anything.
"What happened?!" Gu Qisheng roared in fury. He had gone to great lengths to buy the Star Chart, only to end up with a piece of blood-stained paper?
The vendor calmly explained, "Didn't I already say that the star chart was drawn with painstaking effort? It's normal to spit out a little blood while drawing it."
Lu Yang: "..."
Why is there pitfalls everywhere in this market?
Meng Jingzhou transmitted his voice to Lu Yang, saying, "Most of the goods in the market are fake. One of the tests in our Meng family's coming-of-age ceremony is to buy genuine items in the market."
"I see. Wait, isn't sixteen the age of adulthood? I didn't hear that you went back to the Meng family for your coming-of-age ceremony."
The age limit for joining the Ask Dao Sect is sixteen years old, Lu Yang had never seen Meng Jingzhou return to the Meng family.
Meng Jingzhou retorted confidently, "I ran away from home! What kind of coming-of-age ceremony do I need if I ran away from home!"
Gu Qisheng was still arguing with the vendor. "If that's the case, why don't you redraw a star chart?"
"That shows you don't know what you're doing. There are great secrets hidden in the stars. In the past few hundred years, if you ask around, who has successfully drawn a star map? Even if they have, they will eventually be destroyed for various reasons."
"Moreover, the person who drew the map could not remember the layout of the stars. It is already extremely rare that a small part of my star map is not stained with blood. Selling it to you for 1,500 Spirit Stone is already a bargain."
Gu Qisheng naturally didn't believe the vendor's nonsense, but then he thought that his True Disciple, had never had a star chart. Given her status, this shouldn't be the case.
Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou had never heard of such a thing. Who would observe the stars and remember their positions? Lu Yang thought of his senior sister's Golden Core and felt that what the vendor said had some credibility, so he came to the spiritual space to wake up the fairy.
"Huh? You called me?" The Immortal Fairy asked sleepily, yawning.
Lu Yang repeated the vendor's words, which caught the attention of the Immortal Fairy.
She temporarily borrowed Lu Yang's body and looked up at the sky. Although it was daytime, she could still see the stars that were obscured by the sunlight.
She returned Lu Yang's body to him.
"How is it? Did Senior Sister's Golden Core create a barrier, preventing the world from observing which star is Senior Sister's Golden Core?"
"I don't know if Yun Yatou set it up, but there is indeed a barrier that blocks perception, making it impossible for people to remember the positions of the stars unless they go up to the sky to check."
Lu Yang seemed to be deep in thought. It was most likely a barrier set up by his senior sister, but he didn't know what her purpose was.
Are they worried that the enemy will discover the location of the Golden Core?
Or was it the eldest sister who prevented people from cultivating the Starry Sky Cultivation Method?
As the stars were refined into the continent beneath our feet, the power of the Starry Sky Cultivation Method was no longer as great as it had High Antiquity, since the power of the Starry Sky Cultivation Method originated from the stars in the sky.
However, some people still stubbornly believe that High Antiquity things are good and that they should cultivate the Starry Sky Cultivation Method.
"You went to Qingzhou to attend the grand ceremony? Come, come, let me show you the discerning eye of an immortal!"
Lu Yang regretted waking the Immortal Fairy. After waking up, the fairy was full of energy, jumping around and very restless.
Lu Yang walked past a stall where the stall owner had various books on history, recording all sorts of historical secrets.
"Lu Yang, look at that book, it's called <High Antiquity Secrets>, buy me a copy so I can see what it's about!" the Immortal Fairy said excitedly.
"Boss, how many Spirit Stone does this book cost?"
"Three thousand Spirit Stone"
Lu Yang frowned, thinking it was too expensive. The shopkeeper seized the opportunity and said, "Guest, don't think it's expensive. You should know how many unknown fortuitous opportunity are hidden in the High Antiquity secrets. If you're lucky enough to discover fortuitous opportunity others haven't found in the book, then you can soar to the sky and roam the world freely!"
"My copy of 'High Antiquity Secrets' is the latest version, recording the latest research from the academic community on the High Antiquity period!"
"This is three thousand Spirit Stone."
Lu Yang paid the money and received the goods. Three thousand Spirit Stone were not much for him. Not to mention the patent fee that mysteriously disappeared, just considering the share that the Nine Nether Sect would give him in the future, three thousand Spirit Stone was just a drop in the ocean.
Meng Jingzhou was also curious about the High Antiquity secrets, so he went over to take a look.
The first chapter of this book states: The High Antiquity immortal Ying Tianxian loved beautiful women, especially married women, and caused countless women to become pregnant.
Completely bewildered, Lu Yang entered his mental space to inquire, "Is Ying Tianxian like that?"
The Immortal Fairy looked completely innocent. "Who is spreading these rumors? Ying Tianxian is not that kind of person."
