Long Chens question alarmed Zhan Tu.Zhan Tu hastily replied, Brother, dont say such a thing. Any sect or faction will end up with some internal conflicts after growing to a certain size. You cant judge the Starry River Palace based on what you just saw.
Hearing that, Long Chen felt a bit more at ease. I
If the Starry River Palace were truly as rotten as he feared, the situation would become extremely troublesome.
After all, Long Chen did not possess the strength to provide sanctuary for the nine star disciples arriving from the nine heavens into the Primal Chaos World.
The four Starlight Heavenly Sovereigns factions would be the best choice for them. Even if they had to suffer some bullying and pain, it wasnt important. Survival was what truly mattered.
On the surface, Long Chens actions today appeared reckless, even provocative. But in reality, he had acted only after careful consideration. He had his own goals.
However, his goals relied on the premise that the Starry River Palaces foundation had not decayed beyond repair.
The warship finally came to a halt after passing through another barrier. Ahead lay a long, straight channel with shimmering starlight. Long Chen and the others couldnt see its end.
Qing Yi, you should take everyone to register and receive their tablets, Zhan Tu said. Youve brought back quite a few people this time. Lu Yin has definitely gone to report you, so I should head over as well. Otherwise, if they only hear her biased account, they might believe it.
After saying that, Zhan Tu also left, flying straight for an inner palace.
Long Chen, Big Brother Zhan Tu is a good person. He has always welcomed me and the disciples from the nine heavens. His status amongst the inner palace Elders is also very high. He is an upright and courageous man, Qing Yi said as Zhan Tu vanished into the distance.
The Starry River Palace was split into inner and outer palaces, much like the inner and outer academies of the High Firmament Academy. After all, the cultivation world was never kindgreater resources demanded greater strength.
The outer palace Elders were then split into three divisions: law enforcers, teachers, and attendants.
The law enforcers resembled those of the High Firmament Academy, but they also bore responsibility for regularly teaching the Starry River Palaces rules.
The instructors guided and supported the disciples cultivation and were ranked below the law enforcers.
As for the attendants, though they were also Elders, they were actually only errand runners.
When Qing Yi first arrived, the higher-ups learned that she had participated in the primal chaos war and had fought the Six Horn Fiend Fly for countless years. They felt like she should be rewarded. Adding on her talent and character, they provided her with plenty of resources.
After she had become a Sovereign Lord, they even skipped the normal protocol and promoted her to an attendant Elder.
Although this position was not high amongst the Elders, the monthly resources she got were still significant.
Qing Yi had always felt grateful to the Starry River Palace. That was why she endured Lu Tians harassment in silenceshe saw it as repayment for the aid she had received.
Lu Yin and Zhan Tu, however, were different. They were inner palace elders. The minimum requirement for that status was the Divine Sovereign realm.
Their position was very high, but Zhan Tu often moved between the inner and outer palaces, as he was in charge of their various trials.
Due to Zhan Tus upright character, he disdained abusing his position for status or wealth. Under his supervision, cheating was impossible, and no one dared provide special treatment.
Zhan Tu was very welcoming toward new disciples, and so most of the disciplesparticularly those who came from the nine heavensloved and respected him.
Line up properly! Dont make a fuss. Come take your status plates in an orderly fashion! shouted one of the attending Elders.
They soon reached the next checkpoint.
Lord Long Chen, you should go first!
Quite a few people ahead of Long Chen immediately gave him their spots.
There are no lords here! the elder in charge of registration barked. Leave that nonsense back in the nine heavens
His voice abruptly stopped when his eyes met Long Chens gaze.
Keep shouting, Long Chen said coldly, and Ill pluck out your teeth one by one.
Long Chen had been about to decline politely, but this Elders contemptuous tone instantly provoked him.
More than ten disciples behind this Elder stepped forward in anger.
What do you think youre doing?! shouted one of them.
Its nothing, nothing at all! the elder hastily said. I was a bit loud just now. Elder Qing Yi, please accept my apology. I didnt realize it was you.
As the Elder smiled and waved them through, he shivered inside. The moment Long Chens killing intent locked onto him, his soul almost fled his body. He almost pissed himself.
For a brief moment, the Elder truly thought he was about to go see his ancestors.
He was not foolish enough to continue posturing.
In any case, by acting courteous to Qing Yi, he didnt lose face. Though they were both attendant elders, his own status was even lower. He was nothing more than a random worker.
The registration process concluded quickly.
They received status plates forged from special immortal metal, heavy in the hand. On the front was engraved a palace surrounded by a starry river; on the back was each disciples name.
The formations inside the plates required only a trace of Blood Qi to activate. Once triggered, the plates allowed them to claim their entrance rewards.
These rewards included medicinal pills, spirit stones, robes, and more. Long Chens attention was immediately drawn to the pills.
These pills contain astral energy, he murmured.
As a master of the Pill Dao, Long Chen could tell at a glance. However, after breaking into the Sovereign Lord realm, he had yet to awaken any pill formulas for this stage.
Still, he was not worried about it. He had seen a new path for himself and was in no rush to increase his realm.
These are Star Lord Nourishing Pills, Qing Yi explained when she saw Long Chens interest. They can raise the cultivation base of Sovereign Lords and aid in comprehending laws. Theyre foundational pills, but in this realm, its more important to comprehend laws. If one raises their realm too quickly and their comprehension cant keep up, they will be putting the cart before the horse and wasting their potential.
Xue Ying, does your side also distribute medicinal pills? transmitted Long Chen.
Yes. Their quality is also higher. But just as she said, we cant depend too much on medicinal pills in the Sovereign Lord realm, answered Xue Ying.
When we have time, let me see your medicinal pills, Long Chen said with a nod.
He wanted to compare the differences between the factions pills.
After everyone received a tablet, under Qing Yis guidance, they arrived at a transportation gate. They then passed through it and arrived at an immense mountain.
This mountain was completely barren, without a single blade of grass growing on it. However, this desolate mountain had countless small platforms built on top of it.
Looking a bit apologetic, Qing Yi said, Long Chen, this may feel uncomfortable for you. But without passing the outer disciple trial, everyone will have to cultivate here first. Every platform has its own formations. As long as you insert a special astral spirit stone in a platform, it will activate the formation and connect to the starry rivers power.
Although it is the simplest, lowest level of formation, you shouldnt underestimate it. Not only can it help everyone recover their injuries, but it also lets them comprehend astral laws. It is extremely beneficial.
Elder Qing Yi, theres no need to apologize, a female disciple said with a smile. Back in the nine heavens, we were hunted every day. Just having a safe place like this is already enough for us.
She didnt seem to mind this place at all.
Just then, Qing Yis tablet lit up, and her expression changed slightly. After telling everyone to find their own spots to cultivate, she rushed off.
Clearly, the higher-ups had started investigating the earlier incident. Qing Yi could not remain here.
Seeing this simple and crude cultivation ground, many disciples were still smiling happily.
Good, well have a safe home now! exclaimed one of them.
Safe? A mocking voice suddenly rang out. You vagrants from the nine heavens think this is some beggars den, stealing scraps from the mouths of those who actually work?
