288 The Star Refining Technique (2)
However, the more Luo Hao clamored, the weaker the struggle in Mo’s eyes became. He sighed. “Fellow Cultivator Zhang, I’ll choose him!”
“Very good, Fellow Cultivator Luo. You are a genius. You will definitely be able to succeed.” Jiang Ming smiled.
“No, spare me. I’ll die inside.” The Spirit Silkworm Mountain’s genius, Luo Hao, was so scared that his legs were trembling, and his body was shaking.
“Why didn’t you think about whether we natives would die when you threw us in?!” Wei Shouguang could no longer hold back his anger and roared, “You cultivators from the grotto-heavens are demons!”
Jiang Ming glanced at Wei Shouguang, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes. This guy was really bold. He even dared curse at the cultivators of the Spirit Silkworm Mountain.
It was one thing to be bullied. However, it was another to dare to speak up and resist.
After a while, under Jiang Ming’s gaze, Luo Hao finally walked toward the stone palace with difficulty.
The dark entrance was like the mouth of a ferocious beast, swallowing Luo Hao’s figure and making him disappear completely.
After a few breaths, Jiang Ming suddenly raised his eyebrows.
“Eh? He’s dead?”
Because of the Soul Seed Spell, Jiang Ming could feel Luo Hao’s emotions, from his resistance before entering the stone palace to the fear he felt when he entered.
However, Jiang Ming suddenly sensed that Luo Hao’s soul had suddenly collapsed, and the seed he had planted in Luo Hao had completely disappeared.
A genius from the Spirit Silkworm Mountain, who had reached the peak of the Qi Refinement Realm, had died a moment after stepping into the stone palace.
“It seems like this stone palace is not a place that anyone can enter.”
Jiang Ming stood quietly at the entrance of the palace, waiting for the black sword to completely decipher and translate the scripture.
As for Mo and the other two cultivators of the Spirit Silkworm Mountain, they stood at the back with ashen faces, not daring to make any movements.
Although they had communication talismans in their hands that could contact other cultivators of the same sect, under the deterrence of the Soul Seed Spell, any emotional changes would be captured by Jiang Ming, and there was no chance to use it at all.
Right now, the three of them could only hope that this damned Zhang Shan would suddenly encounter an unstoppable demonic beast and die tragically in the ruins. Then, they would be completely free.
‘That’s wishful thinking.’ Jiang Ming could sense their emotional fluctuations and roughly knew what these people were thinking. He could not help but sneer internally.
Very quickly, the black sword finished translating the scripture and explained it to Jiang Ming several times. He also made detailed notes on some of the words that were difficult to understand.
“It’s the Star Refining Technique!”
Jiang Ming learned the name of this technique. It was a technique to draw in starlight to temper the body.
“I seem to have some fragmented memories of this,” the black sword suddenly said with some doubt. “This cultivation technique seems to have existed a long time ago. Even in the last era, I heard that it was an ancient technique.”
Jiang Ming was slightly surprised.
“This cultivation technique is very complicated. Being able to draw in the starlight is enough to prove that it’s not ordinary. However, as far as I can remember, there weren’t many people who were able to make a name for themselves with this technique. I remember someone once said that even the complete Star Refining Technique seems to have flaws when cultivated to the end.”
Jiang Ming frowned slightly and then shook his head. Why did he care so much? Even if there were flaws, that was a problem for the future. He would practice first.
It was a cultivation technique that could be recorded by a blessed land of immortal cultivation and used to test the disciples. It was enough to prove that it was extraordinary.
He closed his eyes and began to comprehend the Star Refining Technique.
A few hours had passed, and the sky was getting dark. However, Jiang Ming was still standing there quietly. Mo and the others did not dare make any movements.
On the contrary, some of the individual cultivators and natives turned away and took the opportunity to quietly leave this place.
Jiang Ming could naturally sense it. However, he did not care. He had no reason to limit the freedom of someone who had no grievances or enmity with him.
However, Wei Shouguang and some of the natives he led stood firmly behind Jiang Ming and had no intention of leaving.
Wei Shouguang, who was used to seeing life and death, knew how to ensure his personal safety to the greatest extent in this extremely dangerous place.
Suddenly, there seemed to be a breeze around Jiang Ming’s body, and there were traces of unknown energy seeping into his body.
“It’s done!” Jiang Ming opened his eyes, and a ray of divine light flashed in his eyes.
“It doesn’t seem too difficult. Is it because my aptitude has improved that it’s much easier for me to cultivate this technique?” Jiang Ming muttered to himself. The feeling of becoming a genius was amazing.
He then tried to use the Star Refining Technique again. A light breeze flowed around his fingertips, and wisps of energy entered his body.
“Although it’s called the Star Refining Technique, the mysterious energy can also be absorbed and refined. If I can get the entire manual for this technique, I might be able to improve my physical body to a higher level!” Jiang Ming thought to himself.
This energy was not spiritual energy. It was some kind of secret energy that existed between heaven and earth. Although it was extremely thin, it seemed to have a great effect on his body.
