Han Xuanji looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the ethereal Daoist Ten Thousand Stars had quietly turned his gaze toward him and was walking toward him with a smile and a nod.
The other person's eyes were gentle and peaceful, yet deep and unfathomable.
They are powerful figures from that Star Palace.
Could it be that he discerned my astrological destiny?
Han Xuanji secretly guessed that he hadn't forgotten the many rewards he received for signing in at the Great Void Spirit Realm, and that the Star Palace had also made contributions.
The system is incredibly powerful, allowing him to adjust and hide things at will. For example, he concealed the Chaos True Spirit Physique and the True Realm, but he did not hide the Big Dipper Fate or the Double Pupils.
"Ah?"
Han Xuanji was slightly startled, but pretended not to know.
Daoist Ten Thousand Stars smiled slightly, carefully examining Han Xuanji as if admiring a peerless gem. His voice entered Han Xuanji's ears directly, carrying a calming magic:
"Young friend, you have a solid foundation, and what's even more remarkable is that you possess the Big Dipper Star Fate, which coincides with the pivot of the Zhou Tian system. You are an unparalleled potential for cultivating the Great Dao of Stars."
If you are willing to follow me and diligently study the profound methods of celestial phenomena, your future will be limitless, and embarking on the path to becoming Golden Immortal will not be an empty dream.
His words were full of undisguised praise, and the promises he made were enough to drive countless cultivators from the upper realms mad.
Becoming Golden Immortal is not an easy feat.
Even the eldest disciple of Immortal Lord Yunmiao, who has been Mystic Immortal for thousands of years, still finds it difficult to even glimpse the threshold of the Golden Immortal path.
Many prodigies who achieve fame at a young age struggle to even pass the level of Mystic Immortal, let alone Golden Immortal.
Of the prominent figures on the Immortal Dao Heaven's Chosen Ranking in the past, less than 30% eventually succeeded in breaking through to the Golden Immortal.
However, Han Xuanji remained calm and composed.
He knew in his heart whether he could break through to the Golden Immortal.
There are many paths he could take in the future, but the path of the stars is not his first choice.
Han Xuanji showed a perfectly timed hint of surprise on his face, then responded with his divine sense:
"I am deeply humbled by your kindness, senior."
"It's just that I've grown accustomed to the sect's environment and have no intention of changing sects or traveling far away to cultivate."
Instead of being displeased by such a straightforward rejection, Daoist Ten Thousand Stars's smile deepened, as if he had expected it.
His tone remained gentle:
"It's alright. Everything has its time, and forcing things is not good."
Even so, Daoist Ten Thousand Stars still flicked his finger.
A jade talisman, no bigger than half a palm, floated lightly toward Han Xuanji. The surface of the talisman seemed to have a tiny rotating nebula, emitting a mysterious stellar aura.
"This is my apology for disturbing you, young friend. If you develop an interest in the Dao of Stars, you can activate it."
"If we encounter any danger in the future, this item may save us some trouble."
Daoist Ten Thousand Stars spoke with a smile, his attitude as warm and welcoming as a gentle breeze.
"Don't worry, accepting it doesn't mean you're obligated to do anything."
Han Xuanji reached out and took it, feeling its cool touch and sensing the profound stellar energy within. Knowing it was similar to the Star Palace Token, he put it into his sleeve and bowed, saying:
"Thank you, senior."
This item is extraordinary, far surpassing ordinary tokens. Compared to the Star Palace tokens he had previously obtained, it's roughly the difference between an outer disciple and inner disciple.
It's clear that Daoist Ten Thousand Stars was quite generous, or rather, the other party valued him highly.
Daoist Ten Thousand Stars nodded, said no more, and his figure slowly faded away as if merging into starlight.
Wait until he leaves.
Immortal Lord Yunmiao came to Han Xuanji at this time, with a somewhat complicated and emotional tone:
" The Star Palace is shrouded in mystery; those who receive its invitation are all unparalleled geniuses with extraordinary destinies."
"How does the Star Palace compare to a sect?"
Han Xuanji asked curiously.
To be honest, he hadn't expected that Daoist Ten Thousand Stars would poach his talent so openly, but the other party didn't seem to be pressuring him too much.
It's unclear whether he was wary of the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace, or if his value was merely so-so in the other party's eyes.
Immortal Lord Yunmiao shook his head and said:
" The Star Palace has an extraordinary origin. It existed during the High Antiquity Heavenly Court period and holds the power over the stars. It is an important link in maintaining the operation of the stars in all worlds. Its foundation is unfathomable and its existence is unimaginably ancient."
Although my Spirit Void Heavenly Palace is also a leading force in the Immortal Realm, in terms of ancient foundations and the level of expertise involved, it still falls short compared to others.
That's a bit of an understatement.
Han Xuanji estimated that the Star Palace's strength should far surpass that of a "newly emerging" force like the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace. Even though the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace had existed for tens of thousands of years, it was still somewhat inferior to such a terrifying force that had existed for many eras.
Within the Star Palace, powerful Taiyi Golden Immortal like Daoist Ten Thousand Stars have ventured out to travel to various Immortal Domain. True powerhouses with deep foundations are at least at the Daluo level.
Immortal Lord Yunmiao pondered for a moment before speaking:
"Do you know that several powerful figures in my Spirit Void Heavenly Palace have received guidance from experts of the Star Palace, and we still have some ties with the Star Palace?"
A look of understanding flashed in Han Xuanji's eyes; so that's how it is.
No wonder that Daoist Ten Thousand Stars was quite familiar with the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace and knew his master.
However, Daoist Ten Thousand Stars was very good at hiding his abilities. He was clearly a top-level Taiyi Golden Immortal, but he pretended to be an ordinary Golden Immortal.
" The Star Palace are transcendent, yet deeply intertwined; fortune and misfortune are unpredictable, and it is entirely up to you to discern."
Immortal Lord Yunmiao gave Han Xuanji a meaningful look, offered a word of advice, and then turned his gaze back to the increasingly lively arena below.
"Um."
Han Xuanji nodded.
He understood what Immortal Lord Yunmiao meant.
Sects should not prohibit their disciples from contacting such forces, but if they get into serious trouble because of it, the sect cannot protect them.
That's easy to understand.
However, he could try to reach out and obtain more check-in locations.
Anyway, there's no need to do anything for the Star Palace, nor is there any need to have conflicts with anyone.
Time passed slowly, and the Seven Lineages Martial Competition soon came to its final day.
The atmosphere Spirit Void Heavenly Palace was somewhat solemn.
In the Heavenly Immortal Realm, three of the top four spots in the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace are occupied, with Su Ming standing at the very end.
However, once they reached the True Immortal Realm and the Mystic Immortal, the geniuses of the outside world's Daoist traditions and ancient clans were incredibly powerful, and many True Disciple of the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace were swept off the stage.
"Damn it! If it weren't for the fact that the senior brother of the Sword Lineage had advanced to the Golden Immortal realm, we would have given them a real beating!"
"However, these prodigies truly live up to their reputation as members of the Immortal Dao Heaven's Chosen Ranking; each of them possesses extraordinary strength."
On the cloud platform.
One of the Golden Immortal Peak Masters of the lineage shook his head. The person who had just lost was his personal disciple, a true successor of the lineage, and proficient in fire-based immortal techniques.
However, they were no match for the Golden Crow Clan's prodigy.
Deeper within the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace, several figures emerged, exchanging divine thoughts.
"Losing temporarily is for the best."
Upon hearing this, the other figures nodded slightly.
"That's right. The main purpose of this Seven Lineages Martial Competition is to see what these external forces are planning."
The upper realm is vast and boundless, with countless lineages. It will not be easy for the Spirit Void Heavenly Palace to safely pass through this era.
Being too flashy isn't good either.
They didn't care about this Seven Lineages Martial Competition; what they cared about was the longevity of time.
"By the way, did that disciple with Double Pupils still not participate this time?"
The speaker was the head of the Talisman Lineage. He had been exploring a dilapidated realm and had only just returned. His gaze fell upon the scene of the Seven Lineages Martial Competition with a hint of curiosity.
