Chapter 403: Blessings From the Great Dao, Nine Stars and Nine Lights

The environment of the Muyao Star Region was beyond Lu Chen's expectations.

"Why, do you think that my star region should be an undeveloped primeval forest?"

Looking at the somewhat surprised Lu Chen, Hua Ling on the side put away the fairy boat and said with a smile.

The place where they landed was a "sky tree" towering into the clouds.

For this tree, "sky" is not an adjective, but a noun.

Because the crown of this tree is really like the sky, covering most of the Muyao Star Region.

And on this crown, several large cities can be vaguely seen.

Among them, the Muyao Sky City where Lu Chen and his team landed this time is the largest, and it is located in the center of the crown.

If it was just this existence that looked like a world tree.

Then Lu Chen would not be too surprised.

After all, the existence of the world tree fits Lu Chen's stereotype of the Muyao Star Region.

What really surprised Lu Chen were the cities built on the tree crown.

High-rise buildings, neon lights.

If you only look at these buildings and don't pay attention to the body of the World Tree outside the buildings.

Then Lu Chen would even think that he came to a world similar to "cyberpunk".

Rather than the Mu Yao star field that focuses on "nature", "harmony" and "balance".

Perhaps he saw the doubts in Lu Chen's heart.

Before Hua Ling opened her mouth to explain, the owl next to her took the initiative to explain the origin of this wonder.

"I told you before that the only two places in Tiandu that have frequent contact with the Immortal Alliance are my Sun Star Domain and Aunt Hua's Wood Star Domain."

"And in this process, the Immortal Alliance's ever-changing technological products were naturally brought to the Wood Star Domain."

"The so-called nature does not mean forcibly suppressing the changes in things. Pursuing a better life and creating a suitable environment according to one's own abilities is also part of nature."

"After all, humans themselves are also part of nature. Why can't things created by humans be called natural?"

"As long as you jump out of the limited thinking of mortals and look at the problem from a higher perspective, you will find that the "nature" of Wood has never been pursued by "primitive" but "balance."

"This is Aunt Hua's way, and it is also the way of Wood Star Domain."

Looking at Xiao, who was talking freely and knew all about Wood Star Domain, Lu Chen wanted to say something, but he didn't say it in the end.

After all, you look so proud and proud.

Those who don't know would think that you are the Star Lord of the Mu Yao Star Domain, not the Sun Star Domain.

Who knew that Hua Ling next to him quietly transmitted a message to Lu Chen at this time.

"Xiao grew up in our Mu Yao Star Domain since she was a child. She moved her cave to the Sun Star Domain after she achieved the Transformation of the Spirit, so she is so familiar with this place."

No wonder...

In fact, when Lu Chen heard Xiao say that before, he had some guesses in his heart.

After all, he had been thinking about a problem a long time ago.

That is, in such an exclusive Tiandu, only eight or nine of the Star Lords selected from within it are also selected from people born in Tiandu.

In this case, these Star Lords may come from any star domain.

And Lu Chen also observed a phenomenon.

That is, the Star Lord of Jiuyao Tiandu does not seem to be vacant.

Because Xiao once said that before she became the Sun Star Lord, she was only a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Although Xiao did not elaborate on how she broke through the Transformation of the Spirit and how she became the Sun Star Lord.

But Lu Chen speculated that this might be related to the inheritance in Tiandu.

If this is true, Lu Chen can probably guess the reason why Tiandu is xenophobic.

It is nothing more than not wanting the inheritance to fall into the hands of someone of unknown origin.

And this idea, after experiencing what happened that day.

Lu Chen became more and more certain.

Because he felt that Hua Ling seemed too obsessed with the word "balance".

She was so obsessed that in some cases, in order to pursue the so-called balance, she had a feeling of destroying human nature and preserving heavenly desires.

This can be seen from the fact that Hua Ling was ready to force her own will on Lu Chen when they first met in order to maintain the balance of Tiandu.

Such an action is obviously inconsistent with Hua Ling's current approachable temperament and character.

Perhaps the reason for this is the mysterious Tiandu inheritance.

But these are all Tiandu's own secrets.

He can only be regarded as half a Tiandu person at the moment, and it is not polite to ask these rashly.

Besides, there are some things that even if he doesn't ask, someone will soon come to tell him.

Under the leadership of Hua Ling, the three of them soon came to the deepest part of the huge tree.

That is, the core of the tree... the Mu Yao star core.

The so-called star core is actually a large special light ball.

Even Lu Chen's Qinglian pupils could not see through the essence of this light ball at this time.

And when he saw this light ball, Lu Chen had an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

It seemed that he had encountered a similar existence somewhere before.

But Lu Chen was very sure that this was not only his first time to come to Jiuyao Tiandu, but also his first time to see this kind of light ball.

So Lu Chen didn't know where this sense of familiarity came from.

But there were too many things he didn't know in this world.

It didn't matter if there was one more thing.

After Hua Ling led Lu Chen and Xiao here, she took the initiative to walk towards the Mu Yao star core.

As he walked, he said, "It is never easy to enter the sanctuary, even if you are invited by the sanctuary."

"The most important thing is that you need a 'key'."

"For some special reasons, we, the Lords of the Stars, can enter the sanctuary directly as long as we receive the will of the sanctuary."

"But you are different. You are neither a Lord of the Stars nor a local of Tiandu. Therefore, if you want to enter the sanctuary, you need to get your own 'key' first."

"And this key is also one of the most core secrets of our Tiandu."

While speaking, Hua Ling put her hand on the light ball.

The next second, the originally calm light ball began to emit a soft green light.

The surrounding trees also began to grow lush at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Wrapped in the green light, Lu Chen did not feel any discomfort, but instead felt an indescribable peace.

After a moment, the soft green light disappeared.

And Lu Chen looked down at the back of his hand.

I saw that on the back of his hand, there was a nine-star map.

However, only one of the nine star maps was lit up, and the remaining eight were still dim.

At the same time, a special message appeared in Lu Chen's mind.

[You have received the blessing of the Great Dao... Nine Stars and Nine Luminaries (1/9)]

[Magic Power: Nine Stars and Nine Luminaries (1/9)]

[Realm: Four Realms]

[Effect 1. Wood Luminaries: Greatly enhance the perception of the Great Dao of Wood]

The description of the Nine Stars and Nine Luminaries is very simple.

But its effect is immediate for Lu Chen now.

After all, at Lu Chen's current realm.

Ordinary magic and magic are not in his eyes.

After all, in terms of attack, the Zhuqi Sword Formation and Samadhi True Fire can beat 90% of the magic and magic in the world.

In terms of change, the means of the Creation Pill Art that can even refine and purify the Great Dao can be called magical, and it can always give Lu Chen surprises in many unexpected places.

For example, when facing the soul of the Winged Venerable.

It is undoubtedly unrealistic for ordinary cultivators to search the soul of a cultivator in the God Transformation Stage.

After all, in terms of soul, every cultivator in the God Transformation Stage is a master who specializes in this way.

It is impossible that they did not prepare means to deal with soul searching in advance.

However, the existence of the Creation Pill Art allows Lu Chen to touch the opponent's avenue in the most direct and original way without knowing what means the opponent has.

Then he uses the method of pulling out the silk and peeling the cocoon to get what he wants.

Therefore, for a long time, Lu Chen was not very interested in magic skills other than swordsmanship.

There is no other reason, just because they are not of much help to Lu Chen now.

It is not worth spending precious experience points on them.

But the Nine Stars and Nine Yaos are different.

Although it cannot directly provide Lu Chen with powerful magical means.

But it can improve Lu Chen's perception of the Tao.

In a sense, this is equivalent to improving Lu Chen's strength and talent in all aspects.

After all, for cultivators, it is easier to perceive the avenue, which means that they can improve themselves better.

And speed up their understanding of the "Tao".

Finally reflected in the actual magic.

Lu Chen did not expect that he had gained so much from just coming to Mu Yao Star City.

And since it is the Nine Stars and Nine Yaos, there is no reason why this blessing only exists in the Mu Yao Star Region.

There should be similar blessings in other star regions.

Or, these blessings are one of the reasons why Tiandu is so powerful.

"It seems that you have understood the essence of this key and gained a lot from it."

Looking at Lu Chen who had reawakened.

Hua Ling, who had set up the coffee table on the side, said with a smile.

And it was at this time that Lu Chen discovered the changes around him.

I saw that the originally green surroundings turned back to the bare tree hole.

The Mu Yao star core in the center was visibly dimmed.

Everything shows that his blessing this time may not be as simple as he thought.

After finding that Xiao had disappeared, Lu Chen seemed to have thought of something and asked, "How long has it been?"

Hua Ling looked at Lu Chen meaningfully and replied, "I thought you would find out after a while, but I didn't expect you to understand it so quickly."

"Nine days, from the time you began to receive the blessing to now, a total of nine days have passed."

Hua Ling warmed the flower tea in front of her and said slowly, "You may not know what these nine days mean. You only need to know that ordinary blessings are mostly completed in an instant. The more powerful the blessing, the longer the time required and the longer the innate spiritual power consumed."

"And as far as I know, before you, I was one of the few people in Tiandu's history who received the blessing for the longest time."

"But do you know how many days it took me to receive the blessing?"

Lu Chen did not answer, but just sat cross-legged opposite Hua Ling.

After all, Lu Chen was not interested in guessing riddles.

Hua Ling didn't care and smiled and said, "Five days. When I accepted the blessing, I only lasted five days."

"But you lasted a full nine days. The difference is huge, needless to say."

"I even suspect that these nine days are not your limit, but the limit of the star core."

"And during the time you accepted the blessing, I quietly mobilized my connections outside the Immortal Alliance, investigated you thoroughly, and then found a very interesting thing."

"Would you like to guess what it is?"

Lu Chen was not surprised that Hua Ling investigated him.

Lu Chen even speculated that Hua Ling had already investigated him once before he came to Tiandu.

That was when Xiao just told them that he was coming to Tiandu.

And this second investigation was obviously more thorough than the first.

Lu Chen even suspected that Hua Ling not only investigated himself, but also investigated all the people related to him.

There is no doubt that as the lord of the Mu Yao star, Tiandu is the only star region that maintains contact with the Immortal Alliance.

Hua Ling has such ability.

But like the question at the beginning, Lu Chen does not like to play dumb.

He lowered his head and picked up the teacup in front of him, drinking slowly while looking at Hua Ling calmly.

Seeing Lu Chen's reaction, Hua Ling rarely showed a bored expression.

This slightly playful demeanor is very inconsistent with her previous mature big sister temperament.

"It's boring. I thought this would reveal some flaws in you, but I didn't expect that you would remain so calm even at this point."

"Okay, I won't test you anymore. What I found out is very simple. I found that your practice in the first eighteen years was not much different from that of ordinary people."

"All your changes started when you were in your third year of high school."

"Although the information about you in the Immortal Alliance detailed that you were accidentally involved in the sacrificial ceremony of the Black Lotus Sect when you were a child, and accidentally ate the Dao fruit of the Black Lotus Sect."

"But there is a problem. Since you took the Dao fruit when you were young, why did you eat it? Why do you still behave like an ordinary person a few years after taking the Dao Fruit? "

"In addition, I know some secrets of the Black Lotus Sect that even the top leaders of the Immortal Alliance don't know, such as... the Dao that the Buddha Mother controls clearly does not exist in the Dao of Sword. "

"In that case, how did the Buddha Mother give something that she doesn't have to her followers? "

"Excluding all impossibilities, there is only one possibility, that is, your changes should have nothing to do with the Dao Fruit. "

While Hua Ling was saying this, she had been secretly observing Lu Chen, as if she wanted to find out something from Lu Chen.

But to her regret, Lu Chen remained calm after hearing this.

It was as if he was just listening to an ordinary story.

And it was beyond Hua Ling's expectation.

Lu Chen asked a question she had never thought of.

"The deputy leader of the Black Lotus Sect, the former Tianjiao of Shangqing Dao Palace, the senior brother of Uncle Tian, ​​the great sword cultivator Luo Changming, should have been arranged by you, right?"

"..."

Hua Ling was silent for a long time, then seemed to understand something, and smiled helplessly: "Well, the child begged me, I felt sorry for him, so I pointed out a clear way for him."

"You can guess these, I think it has something to do with the descendant of the Blue Fairy. After all, there are only a few people with the Nine Yin Body in the entire Immortal Alliance, and that person just happens to be in Luocheng. I saw in your information that you have had several exchanges with him, and your relationship is good."

"Since you have guessed all this, you should also understand that whether it is the Black Lotus Sect or Qianyu Mountain, they are just a group of insignificant pawns."

"Our real enemies have never been them, right?"

"If you want to fish, you don't pay some bait, how can you catch fish?"

"Trade-offs... are also part of balance. After all, there is loss before there is gain."
