Chapter 173 Breakthrough! This is the attitude of the Star Gate?
Chapter 173 Breakthrough! This is the attitude of the Star Gate?
Following Xing Miexie's order, several ancient giants on the left and right turned around and walked behind Baiyun, carrying a stretcher and came out.
There was a man lying on the stretcher, his face was pale, his forehead was sweaty, and he looked panicked. It was the seventh senior brother Wu Zixu.
Just at this time, the white cloud also landed in front of Chen Zheng and disappeared into thin air, and Xing Miexie and others on it fell back to the ground.
"The first disciple of the Star Sect, Xing Miexie, the second disciple, Zang Wei, the third disciple, Yu Tianhua... the sixth disciple, Hua Wumei, greets Senior Brother Chen!"
Xing Miexie led a few people to bow to Chen Zheng. Each of them looked extremely respectful, as if they were paying homage to an eternal giant.
Then Xing Miexie grabbed Wu Zixu, who was lying on a stretcher, with his big hand. He held him by the neck and was going to force him to kneel on the ground and kowtow to Chen Zheng to apologize.
At the same time, he said to Chen Zheng sincerely: "Brother Chen, Wu Zixu is a blind man who has offended you in the Land of Five Elements. I will make him kowtow to you right now."
"It seems that I thought too badly of others."
Chen Zheng raised his eyebrows when he saw this, thinking to himself that he had misunderstood before. Xing Miexie and the five eternal giants did not come here to cause trouble for him, but to bring Wu Zixu to apologize to him.
Baby Xingyun was not surprised at all. He blinked his big eyes and explained to Chen Zheng, "Brother Chen Zheng, the last time I came back from the Five Elements Land, I told my father about you killing those people from the Wuji Xing Palace and Wan Lianshan and others. My father immediately convened a council of elders. After the meeting, he ordered all the disciples of our sect not to offend you."
"I see."
Chen Zheng suddenly realized that it was the Star Lord and the elders of the Star Sect who wanted to make friends with him after knowing his deeds.
This is easy to deal with.
He came to the Star Gate to sell the Great Star Technique, and it was the right decision, he could get a good price for it.
"We are all brothers from the same sect. Why should we offend each other? You should send Junior Brother Wu to recuperate as soon as possible. Don't let him lose his vitality, otherwise I will feel guilty."
Chen Zheng smiled and waved his hand to stop Xing Miexie from pressing Wu Zixu to the ground and making him kowtow to him.
Without waiting for Xing Miexie to say anything, he moved and flew towards the mountain gate with the nebula baby.
"This... Senior Brother Chen's mind is indeed as broad as the vast ocean. It is really admirable. Perhaps only someone with such a broad mind can be so great and create so many legends."
"Senior Brother Chen just gave each of us a treasure. Hey, this senior brother is too generous. I wish he was a senior brother from our Star Sect..."
The eternal giants such as Xing Miexie and the forty gate-guarding disciples stood in place, watching Chen Zheng enter the gate, feeling deeply moved.
Wu Zixu secretly wiped a cold sweat, and the heavy stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
……
As soon as Chen Zheng entered the ancient meteorite, he felt that the sky was wide and the earth was boundless, as if he had come to another world.
This world is full of a fresh and peaceful atmosphere, with picturesque mountains and clear waters everywhere, towering palaces, flowing springs and waterfalls, rare herbs and flowers, and psychic birds and beasts. It is truly a paradise on earth.
There are also many caves in the depths of the void that emanate a powerful aura of time and space, as if they were caves opened up by people with profound magical powers.
There are many large cities on the earth with a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles. The houses in the cities are lined up one after another, the streets are bustling with people walking around, and it is a lively scene.
"Brother Chen Zheng, there are tens of billions of ordinary people in the mountain gate of my Star Gate, and many outer disciples are recruited from them. They don't have to work as hard as ordinary people. My Star Gate will provide them with food and luxuries to enjoy. The only thing they have to pay is constant prayer. The more pious the prayer, the more powerful the sect's Taoist weapon will be." Nebula Baby explained when he saw Chen Zheng looking at the city below.
"Yes, I know this. The Yuhua Sect and other sects have sect-protecting top-grade Taoist instruments that support countless people, provide for them, and teach them."
As Chen Zheng's mind moved, he sensed that in the many cities below, countless people were praying devoutly, and endless streams of strange power were generated, transforming into vast rivers invisible to the naked eye, constantly tempering the ancient meteorite, the top-grade Taoist weapon that accommodated everyone.
This is the faith and will of all living beings. It has infinite uses and can be used to cultivate supernatural powers, temper the body and magic weapons.
Like the method of opening up the source of magical power in Pan Wu's great power, in fact, in addition to the spirit of war and killing, it can also be cultivated with the power of faith and vows.
The power of will is one of the most mysterious and vast forces between heaven and earth.
Among the Three Thousand Great Ways, there is a Great Wish Technique, which is ranked third only after fate and cause and effect. It is extremely against the will of heaven. It is said that if it is cultivated to the highest level, all the wishes of all living beings in heaven and earth can be realized.
However, this great art has been lost for a long time. Not to mention in the Three Thousand Worlds, even in the Immortal World there may not be many people who can master it. Only the Immortal Master Linglong knows it.
The next time he meets the Immortal Linglong, Chen Zheng can take out the great disaster technique and the great star technique and try to exchange them with her.
"Daoyou Chen, you have come to our Qunxing Sect, which has brought glory to our sect. The elders of our sect and I are waiting for you at Taiji Star Palace."
Just as Chen Zheng was thinking, a very deep voice suddenly came from the sky. From the voice, one could tell that the person who spoke had unfathomable cultivation.
Chen Zheng turned his head and saw a rolling sea of clouds at the end of the sky. A magnificent palace with brilliant stars, auspicious colors, and fairy light rising into the sky, which looked like the Nine Heavens Divine Palace, appeared out of thin air.
The voice came from the hall.
With a loud bang, the huge palace door opened, and infinite starlight gathered and turned into an aurora of heaven and earth, crossing the void and heading straight to the feet of Chen Zheng and Nebula Baby, forming a broad road and a bridge of starlight.
"Brother Chen Zheng, he is my father." Baby Xingyun pointed to the open and magnificent hall in the distance.
"Let's go meet your father." Chen Zheng and Baby Nebula stepped onto the Starlight Bridge.
When the bridge moved, it was like a rainbow piercing the sun, at an extremely fast speed. In a flash, it crossed a very long distance and arrived at the entrance of the hall.
This is the headquarters of the Star Gate, the Tai Chi Star Palace.
Wuji gives birth to Taiji, Taiji gives birth to Liangyi. This sentence from an ancient Taoist book perfectly explains the complex relationship between Wuji Star Palace and Qunxing Gate.
Chen Zheng stepped into the Tai Chi Star Palace.
The hall was completely empty on all sides.
In the center of the hall there is a tall throne.
In front of the throne in the middle stood a middle-aged man with a star crown on his head, eyes like comets, and an ancient appearance. He smiled at Chen Zheng and seemed very friendly.
"Daddy." When baby Xingyun saw the middle-aged man, he called out lazily.
This statement is enough to show that the middle-aged man is the current supreme leader of the Star Sect, the "Star Lord". He is a true giant, ten thousand times more powerful than Deng Ao who tried to trap Chen Zheng in a space cage, and even one level higher than Feng Baiyu.
On the left and right of the Star Lord stood dozens of people, both men and women, with surging star power surrounding them. Their cultivation was at the first or second level of immortality, and they were obviously elders of the Star Sect.
When the elders saw Chen Zheng coming, they looked at him with burning or kind eyes, as if they wanted to see if he had three heads and six arms, and why he could be so prominent in the contemporary world and praised by countless people.
"Junior Chen Zheng greets Star Master and all the elders."
Chen Zheng looked at everyone in the hall for a moment, straightened his clothes, looked slightly solemn, and saluted to Star Lord and others.
People respect me one foot, and I respect others ten feet.
The fact that the Star Gate had made such a grand effort to receive him showed how much they valued him, so he naturally couldn't be impolite.
The Star Lord pretended to be displeased and said, "Hey, Fellow Daoist Chen, you are too modest. You are the greatest genius of all time, no less talented than us. How can you be a junior?"
"Your Majesty, the Supreme Master is right. Moreover, Fellow Daoist Chen is from the Yuhua Sect. You sent your Supreme Master to befriend our Qunxing Sect, and you are a good friend of the Young Master. Don't be polite to us. Please take a seat."
A group of changing human-shaped elders smiled and made a gesture of invitation to Chen Zheng.
The figure of this elder was like a creature from the void. It was obvious that he had already touched the third level of immortality and had begun to comprehend the mysteries of space. He was known as the Star-Moving Elder.
There are endless stars in outer space, some of which will block the light of stars. They must be moved away so that the disciples of the Star Gate can better absorb the power of the stars.
Elder Yixing is a person who specializes in this kind of thing. His magical powers are extremely strong, no less than that of the Son of the Chariot God who was crippled by a shot from Chen Zheng.
Of course, the Star-Moving Elder can only move small stars with a diameter of about ten thousand miles.
No matter how big the star is, he cannot shake it. It requires a supreme elder-level existence to do so.
"Okay, then I won't be polite to you fellow Taoists."
Chen Zheng smiled and nodded, without explaining to everyone that he had left Yuhua Gate, and sat directly on a nearby throne.
He did not wait for the crowd to ask him what he was doing in the Star Sect, and he got straight to the point: "My fellow Taoists, I came to your sect to make a deal with you, and I believe you will be interested in the item in the deal."
"Oh?"
The Star Lord who had just sat down pondered for a moment, then said with anticipation, "What Fellow Daoist Chen wants to trade with us should be the star powers obtained from the disciples of Wuji Star Palace, right? When I came to Xuanhuang Great World from Wuji Great World in a hurry, I did lose a lot of star powers. If Fellow Daoist can trade us a few star powers that my Star Sect does not have today, I will definitely reward you handsomely."
Elder Yixing and others looked at Chen Zheng with seriousness and expectation in their eyes.
Ten thousand years ago, the founder of their Qunxingmen defected from Wujixing Palace because he failed in the battle for the position of the current palace master of Wujixing Palace, "Xingyuan". At that time, the two sides fought bloodshed, countless people were killed and injured, and even the founder himself was killed by "Xingyuan", resulting in the loss of many major star magic cultivation methods.
Although few people know about this matter, it is not a secret.
Chen Zheng had killed many people from the Wuji Star Palace in the Land of Five Elements, and he also had a grudge against the Wuji Star Palace.
The enemy of the enemy is the friend.
This is also one of the reasons why the Star Gate attaches so much importance to Chen Zheng.
But this is not the main reason. It is because Chen Zheng himself is someone that everyone in the Star Gate dare not underestimate.
"Yes."
Chen Zheng nodded and shook his head: "But what I want to trade with your sect is not ordinary star magic, but the origin of all star magic, the Great Star Art."
Upon hearing this, the Star Lord's expression changed drastically. He could no longer maintain his composure. He stood up from the throne and asked uncertainly, "Are you serious, Fellow Daoist Chen?"
"What? Great Star Technique?!"
"The complete Great Astrology, not a branch?"
Elder Yixing and others were not much better off. They suddenly stood up and stared at Chen Zheng with surprise and suspicion, almost thinking that they had heard it wrong.
If Chen Zheng said that he wanted to trade with them a branch of the Great Star Technique, they would not be so surprised.
After all, Sima Teng, who was killed by Chen Zheng, was a genius in the Wuji Star Palace, so it was normal for him to be granted one of the branches.
However, the complete Great Star Technique is of utmost importance, and only the eternal giants who have made great contributions can be granted it.
How could Sima Teng have that?
Chen Zheng affirmed: "It is the complete Great Star Technique. I got it by killing a hall master of the Wuji Star Palace. I wonder if your sect is willing to make this deal with me?"
"I heard it right. Fellow Daoist Chen really was talking about the Great Star Technique, the Wuji Xing Palace's unique martial art!"
"The Great Star Art! As long as we comprehend the secrets within it, we can make up for all the flaws in the magical powers of our Star Sect. We will no longer be inferior to the Wuji Star Palace and will no longer be restrained by this sect. We must obtain it!"
"Fellow Daoist Chen, we at the Star Sect have made this deal. Whether you want a Taoist weapon, an elixir, the White Yang Pill, the Nascent Soul Pill, or a peerless beauty, we will give it to you, all of it..."
The Star Gate elders were so excited that they could hardly contain themselves, some were trembling, and some were roaring wildly.
They even automatically ignored Chen Zheng's feat of killing the Palace Master of Wujixing Palace.
My mind is full of the Great Star Technique.
The Star Lord was also very excited, but he was the leader of a sect after all, and he did not lose his composure like the other elders.
He took a deep breath, suppressed the turbulent waves in his heart, and asked, "What does Brother Chen want?"
"Pure Yang Pill." Chen Zheng spit out three words.
Before the Star Lord could speak, Elder Yixing couldn't wait to say, "I have Pure Yang Pills in the Star Sect. How much do you want, Fellow Daoist Chen? Thirty million? Or fifty million?"
Chen Zheng smiled but said nothing when he heard this.
If we really talk about it, the Great Star Art, which ranks among the top three thousand great arts, can be used even if one is practicing to become an immortal, attain the Dao of Daluo, or even achieve the highest realm among immortals of living as long as heaven and earth.
This technique is priceless.
It cannot be measured by Pure Yang Pill at all.
Even if the Star Gate was sold as a package, it would not be worth even one percent of the Great Star Technique.
But since Chen Zheng wanted to sell this technique to the Star Gate, he had to set a price.
However, the price offered by Elder Yixing might seem like an astronomical figure to others, but it was too low for him today.
What’s more, business is business.
Chen Zheng does not have a close relationship with the Star Gate, so naturally he wants to maximize his own interests. He will not sell the Great Star Art at a low price just because the Star Gate gives him a grand reception.
"Fifty million isn't enough? Fellow Daoist Chen, how about one hundred million..."
"enough."
The Star Punishment Elder, who had very long eyebrows and was in charge of punishment, couldn't help but eyelids twitching when he saw Chen Zheng remained silent. He tentatively doubled the price, but was stopped by the Star Lord who raised his hand.
The Star Lord looked at Chen Zheng and said sincerely: "Fellow Daoist Chen, our Star Sect is willing to pay a high price in exchange for the Great Star Technique. Just name a price and I will definitely agree to it."
"Star Master Daoyou is very courageous."
Chen Zheng praised, and after a moment of silence, he said, "How about this, as long as you give me 10 billion Pure Yang Pills, I will hand over the Great Star Technique to your sect."
"One...ten billion?"
Elder Xingfa, Elder Yixing and others couldn't help but shiver all over.
What is the concept of 10 billion Pure Yang Pills?
It is equivalent to one hundred trillion Baiyang Pills. If you go to the trade center of the heavens and myriad worlds, the world of cultivation, it is enough to buy ten thousand low-grade Taoist weapons.
If they bought second-rate, top-grade treasures, they would be enough to buy millions of them, enough to arm hundreds of thousands of disciples of the Star Sect to the teeth with some left over.
From this we can see what an astronomical figure this is, enough to scare even the eternal giants silly!
However, the Star Gate can still get it if they grit their teeth.
But such a large amount of elixirs cannot be moved lightly.
The elders like them cannot make the decision.
The Star Lord, the head of the sect, must convene a council of supreme elders to explain the purpose and vote.
"Okay, ten billion is ten billion. I will go to the treasury and get the Pure Yang Pill for Fellow Daoist Chen right away!"
The Star Lord was worthy of being the leader of a sect. He didn’t say any nonsense, nor was he frightened like many of the elders. Instead, he just laughed and agreed directly.
He didn't even intend to inform the Grand Elder. He moved and disappeared into the Tai Chi Star Palace.
After about two or three breaths, the Star Lord appeared in the hall again and handed a gourd shining with starlight to Chen Zheng.
"Fellow Daoist Star Lord, this is the Great Star Technique."
Chen Zheng's mind moved, and he saw that there was a small river formed by pure Yang energy in the gourd, which was exactly 10 billion Pure Yang Pills. Without further ado, he condensed a jade book, which recorded the practice method of the Great Star Technique, and handed it to the Star Lord.
"After so many years, so many years, our Qunxingmen finally has hope of revenge against Wuji Xinggong." The Star Lord held the jade book of the Great Star Technique and flipped through it carefully, his fingers trembling slightly.
Many elders had tears in their eyes. They gathered around the Star Lord and studied the Great Star Technique together, comprehending the mysterious words.
No one had time to pay attention to Chen Zheng anymore.
As for baby Nebula, he was already lying on a throne, fast asleep, with snot bubbles coming out of his nose.
Chen Zheng could fully understand the feelings of the people in the Star Gate and did not disturb them.
He walked to a far corner of the hall, unplugged the gourd, and whirlpools appeared all over his body. He swallowed the pure yang energy into his body like a whale sucking water and refined it.
The magic power in the body began to increase rapidly.
Seventy dragons... eighty dragons... in the blink of an eye they broke through the hundred dragon barrier.
The power of one hundred ancient dragons!
This level of magical power is already comparable to that of a cultivator who has just entered the third level of the Cave Heaven Realm of Immortality.
In other words, Chen Zheng is now able to compete with supreme elders like Deng Ao.
Moreover, the Pure Yang Pill in the gourd has not been consumed yet, and Chen Zheng's magic power is still growing.
"It's time to break through the realm and survive the great calamity of wind and fire."
While Chen Zheng was absorbing the pure yang energy, he also triggered the wind and fire catastrophe within his own golden elixir.
But at this moment, a bone-chilling voice seemed to come from a distant time and space, resounding throughout the Star Gate: "Chen Zheng, you unforgivable little devil! I know you are hiding in the Star Gate now, get out and follow me to confess to Taiyi Sect!"
The owner of this voice was none other than the demon-slaying immortal, Deng Ao!
