CHAPTER 809: CHAPTER 326: THE YELLOW SPARROW (PART 3)

Ji Hongli was proud as if she were a mermaid with her tail up.

Xu Jin’s mind recalled the adventure he and Ji Hongli had in the Third-tier Purple Wind Star Domain.

That adventure was indeed... unforgettable!

"Well, prepare well, we set off tomorrow."

Taking Ji Hongli with him was a carefully considered decision by Xu Jin. Ji Hongli was a wealthy player; although her cultivation was at the Fourth layer of the Fourth tier, her strength wasn’t lacking under the protection of Sixth-tier Star Artifacts. As long as her luck wasn’t bad, she could safeguard herself.

What convinced Xu Jin was Ji Hongli’s mastery of Water and Wood Star Skills, which happened to be Xu Jin’s weakness.

In the Alien Star Domain, vigilance and rest were significant problems.

Ji Hongli happened to fill that gap.

Xu Jin needed a teammate he could absolutely trust like this.

At night, for the first time in two months, Xu Jin entered the Fourth-tier Martial Arts Secret Realm, undertaking real combat training under the alias Black Monkey King.

However, Xu Jin deliberately limited his strength.

For instance, he didn’t use Fire Star Skills or Divine Soul Star Skills, only using Thunder and Earth Star Skills. Otherwise, it would only be a matter of time before Xu Jin claimed the top position in the Fourth-tier Martial Arts Secret Realm.

Simultaneously, Xu Jin aimed to test his Flowing Flashes tactic.

Fifteen battles, fifteen wins!

No suspense whatsoever.

On the early morning of December 24, Xu Jin confirmed through Hou Yunzhang and Zhong Wei that Ning Yuchan currently had no military tasks, then left with Ji Hongli. They first flew to the Dachen Battle City Star-picking Tower Branch and then traveled from there to Galaxy City.

Galaxy City was the base of the Galaxy Battlefield Marshal Mansion and the location of the main building of the Galaxy Battlefield Star-picking Tower.

It was also one of the few places in the Galaxy Battlefield that allowed teleportation.

Upon arriving in Galaxy City, Xu Jin did not rush to leave with Ji Hongli but instead purchased cultivation time in the Fourth-order Star Power Secret Realm for Ji Hongli.

"I don’t need it!"

Xu Jin didn’t expect Ji Hongli to refuse him outright.

"Cultivate for three days, then set off," Xu Jin said.

"I don’t need it! If I wanted to use it, I’d buy it myself.

Besides, I have a Fifth-order Gathering Star Array; if I cultivate with that, the results are better!"

Saying this, Ji Hongli hesitated slightly, "If you want to use it, I can lend you my Fifth-order Gathering Star Array; we can take turns, the cultivation effect will be better."

"No need!"

"Then wait for me at the inn where we ate before for three days."

Saying this, Xu Jin directly stepped into the Fourth-tier Star Power Secret Realm of the Star-picking Tower in Galaxy City.

This is an opportunity worth seizing!

An hour saved would mean conserving seven thousand strands of starlight.

A total of six hours, how much would be saved?

Moreover, would the Fourth-order Star Power Secret Realm in the main building of the Star-picking Tower be slightly larger?

Watching Xu Jin, or rather, Heavenly Saint Qi entering the Star-picking Tower’s main building in Galaxy City for cultivation, Ji Hongli suddenly felt somewhat guilty.

Was she too harsh?

Had she hurt Heavenly Saint Qi’s self-respect?

But in an instant, Ji Hongli made up her mind.

Recalling what the State Preceptor had told her, remembering the instructions and the Divine Soul sealing from the State Preceptor.

The Great Saint would return!

She had to wait for the day her Great Saint returned!

And, she had to practice diligently to follow in the footsteps of her peerless hero!

Unexpectedly, Xu Jin cultivated for three days in the main building of the Star-picking Tower in Galaxy City, and there was no maintenance check here.

It probably had something to do with the larger size of the Star Power Secret Realm in the main building.

Xu Jin did not know that three days after he left Galaxy City, the monthly inventory at the Star-picking Tower in Galaxy City revealed excessive consumption in the Fourth-order Star Power Secret Realm.

The sold Fourth-order Star Power Secret Realm cultivation time was about the same as the previous month, but the amount of Fourth Order Star Jade consumed was one-third more.

Almost lost money.

This matter was reported all the way to the Right Military Adviser of the Galaxy Commander Mansion, and then it went silent.

This slight loss was a minor issue; doing business can’t fear people using more.

On December 27, Xu Jin took Ji Hongli and teleported from the main building of the Star-picking Tower in Galaxy City to the branch in Dahong Battle City.

Old rule, always seize the opportunity!

Upon arriving at the Battle City, the first thing Xu Jin did was to go to the Fourth-order Star Power Secret Realm in the Star-picking Tower Branch to cultivate.

Ji Hongli was cultivating at the inn using the Fifth-order Star Gathering Disc.

After two and a half days, Xu Jin’s cultivation in the Lower Star Palace successfully broke through to the Fourth layer of the Fourth tier, gaining another Super Star Core and also engraving a Mingji Star Pattern.

Xu Jin left the branch in Dahong Battle City early, fearing he would push them into closure due to overuse again.

Simultaneously, the range of Xu Jin’s Primordial Spirit Embryo Light officially reached seven meters!

Xu Jin’s cultivation speed improved once again.

On the afternoon of December 29, Xu Jin and Ji Hongli paid the fee at the City Lord Mansion in Dahong Battle City and received the Passing Jade to the Fifth-order Spring Thunder Star Domain, the kind with space attributes, one piece worth six thousand strands of starlight.

This Passing Jade not only allows one to pass through the defenses of the Dahong army and access the position of the Galaxy Channel, but also serves as a Star Domain Mark, with the effect of shielding space turbulence.

However, the effect is applied only when entering from the Galaxy Channel.

If one wanted to return from within the Fifth-order Spring Thunder Star Domain, they could use the Star Domain Mark to lock onto the position of the Galaxy Channel, thus returning successfully.

This is also the basis for collecting fees.

An hour later, Xu Jin and Ji Hongli arrived at the Pengri Army’s defense zone in Dahong Battle City.

Here, the management was relatively lax.

As long as one holds the Passing Jade, the guards will not question them and will let them pass. Any cultivator can enter the Star Domain within the Galaxy Channel to hunt.

But as Xu Jin and Ji Hongli passed by, a wide-faced Pengri Army Guard General suddenly frowned, "You two, the Star Gates on our Galaxy Channel here, start at the Fourth tier, going up to perhaps Fifth or even Sixth tier.

You two, with your level of cultivation, even going to the Fourth-tier Star Domain to hunt, is quite dangerous, isn’t it?

It’s best to find an elder from your family to escort you inside.

We’re all present-day Human Race, don’t waste your lives foolishly."

This person was quite kind.

"Thank you, General, for the reminder. Our family has bestowed a life-preserving treasure upon us, we’re just going for some training." Xu Jin said.

"Alright, since you’re determined, please proceed! Remember, don’t be reckless, survival is the priority." The Guard General advised once more.

"Thank you, General!"

After about ten breaths, Xu Jin and Ji Hongli stepped onto the galaxy together.

All at once, whether Xu Jin or Ji Hongli, both were exclaiming in amazement.

It was too beautiful.

Truly like walking on a galaxy, countless stars shining brilliantly, seemingly within reach, exceptionally magnificent.

After a hundred breaths, guided by the aura of the Passing Jade, Xu Jin and Ji Hongli plunged into the Galaxy Channel, shortly discovering the Spring Thunder Star Domain, and then entered it.

Watching Xu Jin and Ji Hongli disappear into the Galaxy Channel, the wide-faced Pengri Army Guard General shook his head and sighed, "Another two youngsters who know not the heights of heaven and earth."

"You all keep an eye out. If you find them being pursued by the Alien Race, remember to go assist early. We present-day Human Race must unite when facing the Alien Race!" The Guard General instructed.

"Rest assured, General!"

*****

Just after Xu Jin and Ji Hongli entered the Fifth-order Spring Thunder Star Domain.

In a quiet room, before a towering figure, the Star-picking Order suddenly flashed with brilliance.

"Sir, according to your request, we monitored and found that two people entered the Fifth-tier Spring Thunder Star Domain, but since it was through the Galaxy Channel, the other information is not clear."

"So fast, huh!"

This towering figure laughed, "Seems like this one is somewhat impatient, or perhaps determined to obtain this Thunder Element Heaven and Earth Star Will!

To dare go into a Fifth-tier Star Domain, they must have some confidence.

And only sending two people in, that confidence is sufficient, likely prepared with many trump cards, the success rate may not be low.

Five tiers probably aren’t enough.

Issue orders, have Feng take two people to guard and see if we can get some benefits, retrieve my Thunder Element Heaven and Earth Star Will!

Additionally, have the Shadow Department send people into the Spring Thunder Star Domain to investigate, if truly a king in the Spring Thunder Star Domain is heavily injured or killed, it will be the best opportunity in twenty years for us to control the Spring Thunder Star Domain."

"Yes, sir, I’ll go and issue the orders!"
