Chen Ming went through half a month of upgrading and now had 2600 Dao Palaces at the Dao Seed stage.

  Yet not even this promoted the fledgling stage of his Limitless Dao Body to great success.

  Just how many does this damn thing want?

  Chen Ming felt helpless. If 2800 Dao Palaces at the Dao Seed stage wouldn’t work then his situation would turn for the worse.

  Chen Ming went through upgrading another hundred Dao Palaces by spending two million spiritual knowledge.

  He barely felt the tribulation as of late, reduced to but a tickle.

  Bathed in starlight, he resumed his work on understanding the Allheaven Stellar Array hidden within. Ever since he went on this road, this array kept sucking merits out of him.

  It was good the merits income speed rose as of late, now two million per year.

  Even Eight Dragon-ascending Steps was cheap when up against the Allheaven Stellar Array.

  He drifted among the starlight, comprehending every single one, as if he was soaking among them. And with each complete understanding, another star made itself noticed on his back.

  On the 2700th he noticed a change throughout his body. Flesh and bone were baptized in starlight, growing stronger and tougher!

  There were even minute stars all over his skin.

  “Ding! You reached great success in Allheaven Stellar Array. You received the Sky Bearer Aura(incomplete).”


  Chen Ming sat cross-legged, feeling out the changes. Everything was strengthened, with fine stars coursing through his veins along with blood, while also hardening his skin.

  His fledgling stage of Limitless Dao Body reached the great success at last!

  The restless sword soul inside felt the sudden power and despite how tyrannical its sword intent was, it didn’t harm him at all.

  Chen Ming trembled, his mind clear and open, finding himself before the Galaxy once again. Stars were everywhere, each with its own path, the Dao.

  Stars flickered in his eyes as he fazed upon the vast body of stars.

  He seemed to have a revelation, that this Galaxy was at peace.

  No, not at peace, but slight variations here and there. The stars seemed to form a plane where some were higher, while others lower.

  Was this the Galaxy?

  This is so strange.

  I will need to train in the Limitless Dao Body fledgling stage to completion if I want to gaze upon the entirety of the Galaxy, to see its secrets.

  He opened his eyes. His observation of the Galaxy’s workings was fleeting, yet enough for Chen Ming to gain some understanding on the Galaxy’s Dao.

  Chen Ming felt his power, though uncertain as to its extent.

  Casting a glance over his danger value, he now knew it being 24,000.

  It wasn’t great at all yet the increase felt more than it seemed to Chen Ming. His previous value left him in a critical state and this new number freed him from any harm by sword soul.

  It couldn’t compare.

  This new value is unlikely to make me puke blood like the other one.

  Chen Ming let out a drawn-out breath. It was time to check up on the war’s situation.

  His power was of mid-stage Earth Immortal and he shouldn’t find his match anytime soon!

  He went to Chen Lingyu, “Master’s condition is much better now and will go see to your senior brothers.”


  Chen Lingyu smiled happily, “Master, I knew you’d be fine.”


  “To make this day more glorious, how about if Ling’er dances?”


  Chen Lingyu rolled her eyes, “No way!”


  Chen Ming turned sad, “Alright, I’ll be going.”


  Stepping on his five-colored cloud, he soon was at Yan Mountain branch and enquired on the war state.

  A disciple reported, “Master, the war should have been over, but a great number of immortal beasts suddenly appeared on Obsidian Star. Second senior brother and third senior brother are fighting with everything they have in keeping them at bay.”


  Chen Ming nodded, “In that case, Master will go take a look,”


  He soon arrived on Obsidian Star after a weary journey. Reason dictated he should look for Feng Lu first. How can I let the mission giver die on me? Won’t that be wasted effort?

  Feng Lu saw Chen Ming land outside the Obsidian Temple’s gate, and let out a breath. He knew the Purple Sun Pill Pavilion were all dead. As for who killed them, it was more than obvious. Though it did pose a slight problem, since not everything went smoothly.

  Feng Lu knew Chen Ming was a man of his word, seeing him again, “Sire, I ask of you to save Obsidian Star. I never thought it would come to this!”


  “Ding! You triggered a B+ storyline mission, Subdue Obsidian Star’s Beast Tide. Reward: 30 million spiritual knowledge, 0.3 million fame, Obsidian Temple’s gift.”


  Feng Lu said, “If not for sire, Obsidian Temple would’ve found its end at this beast tide. If sire is willing to intervene, I will hand half the territory over to Yan Mountain!”


  Feng Lu knew it wouldn’t work if he didn’t bleed a large reward. Chen Ming laughed. He lacked the path to marching on Desolate Star and Feng Lu went and gave it. It’d be a shame not to accept!

  Chen Ming said, “I am a cultivator that fights injustice. I will see to it at once.”


  With the mission received, the next step was to solve it. When this beast tide was dealt with, he would then converge his forces and grab that savage beasts’ star. If he had the territory holding the path leading to it under control, he would slowly have that star in his grasp.

  And as for those other stars, they would become Yan Mountain’s lands, rearing immortal beasts!

  With immortal beasts, Yan Mountain’s safety was guaranteed and the pill business would continue.

  Chen Ming took four hours to get to the savage beast territory on the Obsidian Star.

  Li Suyi and Ling Xian welcomed him with joy, rushing to greet him.

  Li Suyi said, “Master, it must be our fault since we captured the savage beasts here excessively. Now there are a dozen immortal beasts on the Obsidian Star!”
