Chapter 518 Heart of the Stars

The mountain peaks tower into the clouds.

This is the highest mountain peak in the entire Wanjian Sect and is also a truly forbidden area.

Not to mention ordinary disciples and elders, even the Four Great Sword Lords are prohibited from setting foot on this peak.

A grand hall was built on the top of the peak, which looked particularly beautiful surrounded by clouds and mist.

But in fact, in addition to being beautiful, these clouds also contain terrifying sword energy. It is no exaggeration to say that even the four great sword masters will never be able to break into them.

The most important thing is that there is a person living in the hall. Looking at the entire sky, he is the most terrifying existence.

Just outside the main hall, Wu Chi and other disciples could not suppress a sense of panic in their hearts.

This is the retreat place of Jianzu, and it is also the place where they will retreat in the next ten years.

After sending Wu Chi and the others, the four great sword masters bowed and retreated at the same time.

Wu Chi and the others could enter the main hall where Jian Zu retreated, but they couldn't.

There was no exchange of words, and everyone carefully stepped into the hall.

As soon as I entered, I suddenly felt a burst of vast star power, as if I had stepped into a vast starry sky in an instant.

From the moment you enter the main hall, it is no longer what you imagined. Instead, it feels like you have stepped into another space.

Raising his head, he saw a bright star hanging above his head. The brilliant starlight shone down, allowing everyone to bathe in the starlight. The star power in his body began to operate on its own without even urging it.

In the void above his head, Sword Ancestor sat cross-legged, breathing in starlight near the star.

"Disciple pays homage to Sword Ancestor!"

The moment they saw Sword Ancestor clearly, everyone bowed and saluted at the same time.

Slowly opening his eyes, Sword Ancestor nodded slightly, "This is the Heart of the Stars. You can try to comprehend and refine the starlight around you. It's up to you to see how many benefits you can get."

"yes!"

After bowing and answering, everyone dispersed and sat down. Even if they didn't know what the Heart of the Stars was, in this environment, they should understand how precious this opportunity is.

Ten years sounds like a long time, but in fact, once you start practicing, it couldn't be shorter.

Seeing everyone starting to practice individually, Wu Chi couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly.

It's not that he doesn't cherish this kind of opportunity, it's actually Xi Junying's existence that puts great pressure in his heart and he can't help but think more.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard he looked, he couldn't find anything out of the ordinary.

After thinking for a while, Wu Chi finally gave up those messy thoughts.

No matter what Xi Junying wants to do, he can't find any clues before he shows up. In this case, it is better to practice honestly first.

It was just because of this that Wu Chi was more careful after all when practicing and did not put all his attention on cultivation.

Under this starlight, the speed of cultivation is undoubtedly more than ten times faster than outside.

If it were other people, they might have been satisfied, but Wu Chi understood that this was not the point at all.

If he could just practice faster, Luo Ying wouldn't have to give him serious instructions.

Anyway, in fact, Wu Chi's cultivation level has reached a bottleneck. Wu Chi simply does not practice, but instead puts his mind completely on the perception of starlight.

This is a difficult process in itself, even countless times more difficult than comprehending the stone tablet in the Dark Hell Realm.

In a blink of an eye, three full years have passed.

It took Wu Chi three years to suddenly realize that this starlight was actually just an appearance, and even the star hanging in the sky was just something on the surface.

The real source of this starlight turned out to be the ground beneath our feet, or... it was simply the stars beneath our feet.

Such a discovery almost instantly subverted Wu Chi's cognition, making him even question his own judgment.

If anyone else had come to such an unbelievable conclusion, they would have been overturned by him, but Wu Chi was extremely determined. His experience of proving the truth again and again gave him a trust in his own judgment that was unimaginable to outsiders.

After repeated deductions, Wu Chi finally came to the most horrifying result.

What Sword Ancestor calls refining, in fact, is not refining the star heart hanging in the sky at all, but the stars and the earth under his feet!

What a crazy move this is, and what kind of terrifying strength is hidden under this madness?

It wasn't until this moment that Wu Chi realized how terrifying Sword Ancestor was.

But... in this case, why did Sword Ancestor allow people like him to come here for enlightenment or refining?

Guessing that Sword Ancestor was refining the entire Firmament Star, Wu Chi became more and more puzzled.

No matter how slow Wu Chi reacts, he still understands that such refining must prohibit anyone from intervening. This is probably the reason why Luo Ying and the others are prohibited from entering.

But, why do you allow disciples like yourself to come in to comprehend or even refine these starlights?

No matter how conceited he was, Wu Chi knew very well that with his own strength, there was no way he could participate in the refining process.

But, if not, what's the point of coming in?

Is it really just using the rich starlight here to speed up cultivation?

No matter what others think, Wu Chi does not believe this result.

.. .

"I can't bear my temper!"

In the void, Xi Junying opened his eyes, with a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth.

If Sword Ancestor had really been refining the Heart of Stars by himself, it would be difficult for him to do so. It would be much more difficult to win the Heart of Stars.

However, from the beginning, he was sure that Sword Ancestor had no possibility of refining the Heart of Stars by himself.

In the face of such temptation, once you cannot keep your heart, you will inevitably go astray.

It's not impossible to succeed if you take the wrong approach, but you will still fall short in the end.

The most important thing is that this means...Sword Ancestor has entered the game!

With a slight movement of his fingers, two talismans suddenly flew out of Xi Junying's hand.

..

In the void!

Sword Ancestor opened his eyes again, and his gaze slowly fell on Wu Chi.

Although it seemed that his eyes were always closed, in fact, every move of Wu Chi and his disciples was within the perception of Sword Ancestor.

Wu Chi's abnormality had already been noticed by Sword Ancestor.

In fact, among the many disciples this time, the one that Sword Ancestor is really optimistic about is Wu Chi.

Although the other disciples are also outstanding, they are just geniuses and are far from being considered geniuses.

But what he wants to do, only a true genius can help him do.

"Did you notice it?"

The next moment, Sword Ancestor's voice slowly sounded in Wu Chi's heart.

In an instant, Wu Chi suddenly raised his head and looked at the Sword Ancestor in the air, his eyes filled with horror.
