Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation-Chapter 568 - 236: Waiting for the Right Time

"Lingji Remnants!

So it’s a coincidence?"

Staring at the complete dissolution of Hu Zhen’s Primordial Spirit, the Third Elder of Tianyang Star Hall violently turned his head, glaring intensely at the laughing National Master Cheng Yuxiao, his eyes almost spewing fire.

We were so close to the final step, success was within our grasp, and yet we were thwarted by a Lingji Remnant who emerged out of nowhere and specialized in Purple Thunder.

This is simply...

The Tianyang Star Hall had even deployed the Star Lord himself!

"What are you looking at me for? It was the Lingji Remnant’s doing, what does it have to do with me?"

National Master Cheng Yuxiao’s mood at this moment was exceptionally exhilarating; he had not expected a Lingji Remnant to suddenly appear.

And it just so happened that among the experts Qin Da brought, there was one who spoke impulsively.

He made a definitive declaration on the spot!

Otherwise, even if the Lingji Remnant had demonstrated the signature ability of Lingji Star Hall, it would still require some discussion to label him a Lingji Remnant.

Qin Da clearly realized this too and shot a hateful glance at the Seventh Tier expert who had spoken too quickly.

Then he commanded, "Search!"

"Search thoroughly in all directions!"

"The energy that thief just released seemed to be at the early stage of Star Condensation, and he used the Chaotic Star Secret Technique to flee! With his cultivation level, he definitely couldn’t have executed the Chaotic Star Secret Technique, it’s eight or nine times out of ten that it was a Star Artifact or an Emblem.

With the use of a Star Artifact or an Emblem, the range of the Chaotic Star Secret Technique is generally around a hundred miles.

Search thoroughly in all directions!

Any suspicious individual should be captured alive!

For those who resist after being warned, kill them!"

With Qin Da’s order, the dozens of Tianyang Star Hall experts he had brought, along with the six members of the Hu Family led by Hu Jinsan, instantly scattered like starlight, shooting in all directions.

"National Master, with the appearance of Lingji Remnants within Dachen territory, as per the agreement between our two parties, if Lingji Remnants appear, your Dachen must fully cooperate in the suppression. I request the National Master to also deploy personnel to search in all directions for this Lingji Remnant!" After some thought, Qin Da directly sought National Master Cheng Yuxiao’s help.

This was a fundamental principle in the agreement between Dachen, Tianyang Star Hall, and Cangming Star Hall.

Such a principle was something Cheng Yuxiao could not afford to ignore!

But to Qin Da’s surprise, Cheng Yuxiao was very cooperative.

Almost the very moment he made the request, Cheng Yuxiao commanded, "Did you hear that? The Third Elder of Tianyang Star Hall has ordered you to assist in the pursuit of the Lingji Remnant.

Coordinate immediately, divide into teams, cooperate with the experts of Tianyang Star Hall, and search in all directions. There must be no overlooking of any suspicious individuals, but do not randomly kill any Loose Cultivators in the Martial World!"

"Yes!"

With the order given, thousands of Dachen elite forces instantly scattered in all directions.

At the same moment, Cheng Yuxiao secretly transmitted a message to Meng Yanhui and Elder Peng.

"Yanhui, go with Elder Peng and keep an eye on things, act as you see fit."

These two, both confidants of Cheng Yuxiao, instantly understood his intent and, in a flash, dispersed as starlight in all directions.

Cheng Yuxiao himself continued to watch vigilantly in all directions, hoping to see if anything unusual would happen.

If this Lingji Remnant were really found, he would likely make some slip-ups or beginner’s mistakes.

At this moment, Qin Da also suddenly realized something was amiss.

This isn’t right!

At this moment, the elite experts of Dachen hardly had the time to be grateful for the intervention of this Lingji Remnant, so how could they truly be dedicated to hunting him down?

Sending them to search would most likely result in them turning a blind eye.

This...

Qin Da had the feeling he had lifted a rock only to drop it on his own feet.

The next moment, Qin Da soared into the sky, also wanting to join the search.

But just as Qin Da took to the sky, National Master Cheng Yuxiao stared pensively at a meteor-like streak of starlight in the sky.

The appearance of this starlight was extremely abrupt.

It appeared suddenly, a hundred miles away.

Then the starlight ascended and shot in the direction of Peach Blossom County.

There was something peculiar about this starlight.

Qin Da’s ascension was a little later, so he didn’t notice this streak of starlight.

When Qin Da ascended, he only saw a streak of starlight falling towards the direction of Peach Blossom County.

He didn’t pay it any mind.

With the situation being so chaotic today, the sky was like a meteor shower with streaks of starlight crisscrossing everywhere; just one Fifth Tier expert flying toward Peach Blossom County was nothing unusual.

However, National Master Cheng Yuxiao, who observed the ascent and descent of the streak of starlight in its entirety, started to wonder.

Because the starlight was moving too fast.

In a matter of moments, it crossed a distance of nearly two hundred miles and entered Peach Blossom County.

Traveling nearly two hundred miles in just two breaths, even he, an Eighth Tier expert, could not do it.

Only an expert well-versed in Space Star Technique could possibly achieve it.

But if it were the Space Star Technique, it should be flashing, not a fleeting streak of starlight.

Considering the trajectory, landing point, and the unusual speed of the starlight, National Master Cheng Yuxiao suddenly confirmed something.

Star Dome protection!

The Star Dome protection from the Star-picking Tower’s Star Dome Secret Realm.

Only the Star Dome protection from the Star-picking Tower’s Star Dome Secret Realm would be so swift!

The reason for his quick judgment was that he was very familiar with this matter.

In earlier years, he had also frequently used this Star Dome protection!

This device, if used correctly at a critical moment, is very effective!

But the problem was, the threshold for using this device was extremely, extremely high!

One must have the Holder Authority issued by the Star-picking Tower Master’s Tower itself to succeed.

Generally, the control permissions held by Sub-hall Masters, State and County Mountain Masters, and Deans were not possible.

The control permissions that Sub-hall Masters, State and County Mountain Masters, and Deans have are actually disseminated from the Star-picking Tower Master’s Tower that they belong to.
