Chapter 709: Breaking Through the Star Platform (1)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the thousand years since the founding of the Great Xia Dynasty, the Imperial Capital had long become the center of the continent. Not only was it prosperous and lively, but many forces had also gathered here. The Lizard Sect, the Fire Phoenix Sect, and the other twelve demon god cults had all set up important branches here.

For example, Chen Bin was originally the Altar Master in charge of the Imperial City. Although the various states were in chaos now, the Imperial City was still a holy land that all the Bloodline Awakeners in the world yearned for.

It could be said that anyone who had a little pursuit for bloodline cultivation would go to the Imperial City after breaking through to the Star Rank. If they could make a name for themselves, they might grow to the late-stage of the Star Rank or even the powerful Star Palace Realm in the future. Even if they failed, they could accumulate experience and become the topic of discussion for their children’s education in the future.

Nangong Yao’s obsession with the Prodigies Competition was actually influenced by the ideas instilled by the aristocratic families since she was young. After all, as long as she could stand out among the prodigies, not only would she be famous in the world, but she would also bring supreme glory to the family.

Hearing the hint of envy in Lian Nishang’s words, Shen Ping could not help but smile. “Why? Do you want to go to the Imperial City too?”

The girl stuck out her tongue and hugged Shen Ping’s arm, her water drop-like curves rubbed against him. “The state capital is really too boring. There are no demon hunting missions, and I don’t see you often. I’m the only one left in the mansion every day. There’s no one to talk to.”

Shen Ping smiled and pinched her delicate nose. “You just like to join in the fun.”

Lian Nishang chuckled and said, “Then, Brother Shen, can we go?”

Shen Ping was not in a hurry to answer. Instead, he pondered for a moment. There were many experts guarding the Imperial City. His strength was indeed extremely strong in the state capital, but it was different in the Imperial Capital as there were Emperor Realm experts in the Star Platform there. The Imperial Family would definitely appear especially in a grand event like the Prodigy Tournament. If he went, he did not know if his little concealment method could hide from those Star Platform Realm experts.

“I won’t go. Nishang, if you want to go—”

He was halfway through his sentence when Lian Nishang shook her head. “If Brother Shen doesn’t go, then Nishang won’t go either. She’ll stay here with you.”

He reached out and hugged the girl. He said helplessly, “It’s not that I don’t want to go, but I still have things to do. Besides, haven’t you always said that you want to train yourself? This Prodigy Tournament is a chance. When the time comes, you can go on stage.”

Now that the girl had broken through to the Star Rank, she indeed had the qualifications to participate. As long as one was below the age of 30, they could participate.

Lian Nishang was immediately tempted. “But, but…”

“Alright, although I’m not going, I’ll also pay attention to the situation of the Imperial City’s competition.”

“Fine. Then I’ll get ready and set off the day after tomorrow.”

Shen Ping grabbed her head fiercely. Not long after, the girl’s face turned red. “You’re leaving so quickly. Don’t you want to spend some time with me?” “Hmph… Who asked Brother Shen to always leave me behind? D-Don’t touch my butt. Nishang will leave in a month, alright?”

“That’s more like it.”

Even though he had agreed to let Lian Nishang go to the Imperial City alone, he was naturally worried. Therefore, he took advantage of this period of time to make some life-saving trump cards for her and let Chen Bing arrange them. This way, nothing would go wrong.

After chatting, the two of them began to warm up. In terms of relaxation in cultivation, Shen Ping had long reached the realm where he could do whatever he wanted.

During the Imperial City’s Prodigy Tournament, Shen Ping stayed in the Jizhou’s residence and cultivated in peace. He was prepared to raise all his lightning, earth, water, and metal bloodlines to the seventh level of the Star Palace Realm. Although he did not have the blood beads that he needed to condense at the seventh level of the Star Palace Realm, he had five to six Star Palace Realm beads at the second or third level. In addition, the stargold mine controlled by the Fire Phoenix Sect and the Lizard Sect was enough for him to improve.

Half a year has passed. It had been 20 years since he was reincarnated in this world. The star power in his bloodline increased again, and he had all seven palaces opened by his bloodline.

In the quiet room, he slowly opened his eyes, and there was a terrifying pressure in his pupils. If he did not deliberately restrain himself, even a Star Realm guard would find it difficult to withstand it.

“I’m only short of the fire and wind bloodlines. However, breaking through to the Star Platform Realm is indeed a problem. According to the information gathered, the Star Platform Realm has to successfully comprehend the basics of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao. Only then can they unleash 50% of the power of Heaven and Earth. Most of the Star Platform experts in the Great Xia Dynasty have stayed at this bottleneck for more than a thousand years. The fastest they used was more than 600 years.”

The bloodline of this world was not as good as the blood of strange beasts, but it had its own unique points. It could naturally control the power of the world.

For example, lightning. At the Star Palace realm, one could activate the power of lightning and control a portion of its power. However, if he wanted to step into the Star Platform Realm, he had to rely on his own comprehension. Only by successfully comprehending the basics could he break through the Star Palace and use the power of heaven and earth to forge the Star Platform.

In his life before reincarnation, he was just short of comprehending it. Therefore, this step was indeed difficult for him to quickly cross.

“Could it be that I can only comprehend through my bloodline obediently?” He frowned. Time was of the essence. Although he had a huge advantage now, as long as those Venerable Sovereigns and Immortal Venerables were given time, they would definitely be able to catch up quickly.

One had to know that those above the Immortal King Realm had comprehended the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. The Star Platform Realm was a huge threshold for many experts in the Great Xia Dynasty, but there was no bottleneck for Beast Spirits above the Immortal King Realm.
