9 min read2,191 words
In the middle of the month, a bright starlight fell on the stargazing platform, bathed in the starlight, many cultivators sat cross-legged on the ground and began to feel the Power of Stars in the starlight.
Holding his sleeping Son in his arms, Liu Mufeng had been nervously guarding his Wife. He had not settled down and tried to feel the Power of Stars, because he knew that only three of the Lingwu Sect’s disciples had been able to feel the Power of Stars through the stargazing platform. Two of these three cultivators had become a powerful party, and one had become the Supreme Elder in the sect, this person was Qin Yuan’s father, Qin Zhengxiong.
It could be said that cultivators who could feel the Power of Stars in the light of stars were very rare. Therefore, Liu Mufeng didn’t think he could feel the Power of Stars with the same luck, butXiaoXu was different.XiaoXu had felt the Power of the Stars before in the Well of Enlightenment. In addition,XiaoXu was the villain of this book, with a luck that was no worse than Xiao Zhantian and had been blessed by the Tianyan Clan. Therefore, Liu Mufeng felt that his lover was more likely to feel the Power of Stars, and he needed to protect and take good care of his lover.
Sitting cross-legged, Jiang Xu bathed in the starlight, slowly closed his eyes, and began to feel the light of the stars and the Power of Stars from the starlight.
All of a sudden, the starlight that had scattered evenly on the stargazing platform began to converge towards Jiang Xu. The starlight, one after another, shone on Jiang Xu as if it were a searchlight. One after another star maps shadow flew into Jiang Xu’s sea of knowledge.
One after another. All the starlight of the eighty-one star maps were concentrated on Jiang Xu alone. All the other disciples looked at Jiang Xu helplessly, with envy, jealousy and resentment in their eyes.
“Elder Martial Brother Jiang is worthy of being a disciple of the Sect Master, and unexpectedly, he alone gathered 81 star maps.”
“Yes, Elder Martial Brother Jiang is so powerful. I heard that Elder Qin only gathered seventy-two star maps that year. Unexpectedly, Elder Martial Brother Jiang gathered eighty-one.”
“Ah, Elder Martial Brother Jiang is really a peerless genius.”
“Yes, Elder Martial Brother Jiang is really powerful.”
Looking at Jiang Xu, who was in the limelight again, Ji Furong couldn’t help frowning. In those days, she, Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu were Daoist Friends of the Lingwu Continent, and went to Cang Mountain Secret Realm to find opportunities. But now, Jiang Xu was a cultivator of the Spiritual Profound Realm, and had gathered 81 star maps. And what about her? By selling her body to be a concubine for others, she got the opportunity and reluctantly advanced to the Spiritual King Realm. Her strength was hundred thousandliworse than others, her luck was also worse than others.
Why, why were all good things met by Jiang Xu? He went to the Cang Mountain Secret Realm and casually got an opportunity and got promoted to Spiritual Master Realm, accidentally touched a transmission array and went to the middle continent. After 13 years in the middle continent, he returned to the Lingwu Continent as a cultivator in the Spiritual King Realm. When he came to the Zunhuang Continent, he was praised all the way, was taken as a disciple of the Sect Master, and got the opportunity in the small secret realm, was able to get enlightened in the Well of Enlightenment and got promoted to the Spiritual Emperor Realm realm in 70 years, went out of the sect to gain experience for a while, and came back to be a cultivator in the Spiritual Profound Realm.
Why, why were all the good things happening to Jiang Xu? Why couldn’t she catch up with him?
At that moment, two figures could be seen flying over to their location and landed on the stargazing platform.

“Don’t be so polite. The eighty-one star maps have been gathered byXiaoXu. There is no use for everyone to stay here. Everyone can go back.” Xuanyuan Chen ordered the rest of the disciples to leave. His disciple was now comprehending the Power of Stars and shouldn’t have any disturbances, therefore, he needed to clear the scene.

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Chen curled the corner of his mouth. “Elder Qin is flattering me.”
“Alas, what a pity. I had thought that the disciple who would gather 81 star maps would be my little disciple. Unexpectedly, it was the disciple of the Sect Master.” Elder Qin sighed and felt it was a pity that he missed taking Jiang Xu as his disciple.
“Elder Qin, you flatter this boy too much. This boy is just a little clever.” Xuanyuan Chen laughed at this.
“No, no, no, no, how can a disciple who could comprehend the Power of Stars in the Well of Enlightenment and also gather eighty-one star maps be mediocre?” Qin Zhengxiong didn’t think that Jiang Xu was mediocre. If Jiang Xu was mediocre, how could Xuanyuan Chen accept him as an apprentice?
“Elder Qin is over praising.” Liu Mufeng said softly with a smile.
Seeing Liu Mufeng standing by, Elder Qin smiled. “Nephew Liu, thank you for helping Yuan’erand taking care of Wan‘er.”
“Elder Qin is very kind. The City Lord Qin is also a member of our Lingwu Sect. I am just glad that I could help.” Liu Mufeng said respectfully, looking at the white-haired old man.
“En, whether it can be done or not, our Qin family will accept your kindness. If you have any difficulties in the future, I will help you.” said Elder Qin, looking at Liu Mufeng.
“Thank you, Elder Qin.” Liu Mufeng bowed his head and said thanks in a hurry.

The next day,
When the sun slowly rose, Jiang Xu, who was sitting on the ground, opened his eyes fully. At the moment he opened his eyes, Jiang Xu’s spiritual power fluctuated. His initial strength of two stars in the Spiritual Profound Realm directly crossed three small realms and became five stars.
“XiaoXu, how do you feel?” Liu Mufeng asked anxiously when he stepped forward.
“Nothing to worry, I feel very good.” He waved his hand and stood up from the ground.
“Nephew Jiang is really blessed.” Qin Zhengxiong was envious to see Jiang Xu, who was promoted to three small levels overnight. Jiang Xu’s strength had improved so much, which proved that his perception of the star map was very complete, and he had acquired more power than himself.
Hearing this, Jiang Xu looked at Elder Qin, an old man with white beard and hair. Jiang Xu blinked because he didn’t know the other person.
“XiaoXu, this is Supreme Elder Qin, the Father of the Lord of Qin City.” Liu Mufeng said as he looked at his wife.
“Oh, it’s Supreme Elder Qin.” Bowing his head, Jiang Xu hurried to salute. The Supreme Elder was as powerful as his Master and was in the Spiritual Sacred Realm. This was a great person,ah.
“Nephew Jiang, don’t be so polite. Congratulations. Nephew Jiang suddenly realized the 81 star maps. I have something else to do, so I will leave first.” Qin Zhengxiong looked at Xuanyuan Chen.
“Elder Qin, walk slowly.” With a smile, Xuanyuan Chen watched the other party leave.
“Master.” Jiang Xu called softly when he saw his Master.
“Come, let’s go back first, then we can talk.” After looking at his apprentice and Liu Mufeng, and the still sleeping baby in Liu Mufeng’s arms, Xuanyuan Chen left first, followed by Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu, who also went back to Pill Peak.

Looking at his apprentice, Xuanyuan Chen raised the corner of his mouth with satisfaction. “En,you boy, Elder Qin had only gathered 72 star maps, but you have gathered 81. You are the cultivator that has gathered the most star maps in the Lingwu Sect’s history.”
“Thank you for your praise, Master and thank you for coming to help protect Dharma for me.” Jiang Xu said, looking at his master.
Xuanyuan Chen laughed. “The Power of Stars is the power of the nature of heaven and earth. You can feel the Power of Stars, which is of great help to your cultivation and swordsmanship. Originally, Elder Qin had rushed, wanting to take you as an apprentice and study the star map with you. But you are already my apprentice, and he can’t take you as an apprentice anymore. So, Elder Qin just meant to study the star map with you. What do you think?”
“Why should I study with him? I have 81 star maps, and he has only 72 star maps. I’m not at a loss.” Jiang Xu wrinkled his nose unsatisfactorily.
“Stinky boy, will your Master let you suffer? Elder Qin said that he would teach you the 72 star sword techniques he created. Elder Qin has studied this for many years, and he knows more about the star maps than you do. If you didn’t get 81 star maps, he wouldn’t offer such favorable conditions.” Looking at his disciple, Xuanyuan Chen said.
“What are 72 star sword techniques? Is it very powerful? Can I create an 81 star sword techniques as well?”
Looking at Jiang Xu with a disapproving face, Xuanyuan Chen gave a cold hum. “Nonsense, this set of star swordsmanship was created by Elder Qin himself according to the 72 star maps. It took 50,000 years for him to consolidate these techniques, and you want to create a star swordsmanship yourself? Boy, I don’t think you know how far away the heavens are from you.”
“Shifu,don't you look at people just by seeing them through the crack of the door? Maybe I can also create a set of star sword techniques myself?”
“You really don’t know the height of the sky and the thickness of the earth.” Looking at his disciple, Xuanyuan Chen rolled his eyes helplessly.
“Elder Qin is the Supreme Elder, and has a cultivation of eight stars in the Spiritual Sacred Realm. He is 230,000 years old this year. According to the seniority calculation, Elder Qin is already the Uncle of the Sect. His seniority is higher than that of the Sect Master, and even the Sect Master needs to give him three points of respect. Moreover, Elder Qin had suddenly realized the Power of Stars when he was less than 1000 years old. He has created a set of seventy-two star sword techniques, which was very rare and had defeated many enemies in the Zunhuang Continent. This set of sword techniques is the lifeblood of Elder Qin. Elder Qin has 568 disciples and three sons. However, only three have been able to get his favor and he taught them this swordsmanship so far. One is his youngest son Qin Yuan, and the other two are his two lovers. Although their swordsmanship is good, they have not discerned the Power of Stars. Therefore, the seventy-two star swordsmanship used by them is far less powerful than that used by Elder Qin himself.Xiao Xu, this Elder Qin is highly respected and a great swordsman. If you can learn the seventy-two techniques of Star Sword, it will certainly be more powerful, which is much more convenient and faster than creating your own sword techniques.” Liu Mufeng patiently explained to his partner.
“Oh, so that’s how it is.” Jiang Xu finally understood.
“Mufeng is right. Elder Qin is my Martial Uncle, and his swordsmanship is not inferior to me. If you can get his favor, it is your fate. Others havesharpened their heads, wanting to worship Elder Qin, and they are not rare geniuses.” Xuanyuan Chen said helplessly, looking at his apprentice who was ignorant of his own fortune.
“Okay, then, I’ll study the star maps with him. However, he won’t cheat me by cheating my star map off, and then won’t teach me swordsmanship, right?” Jiang Xu was a little worried about that.
“He’s not so bad that he would do that. He said it himself. Just for my sake, he will teach you.” Those two Elders, one was Xuanyuan Chen’s Uncle, the other was Xuanyuan Chen’s Younger Brother, they were Xuanyuan Chen’s confidants, and Xuanyuan Chen was really quite at ease with them.
“Oh, that’s good.” Jiang Xu was relieved to hear his Master say so.
