When Ye Chen was born, two hidden Star Souls were activated within his Star Diagram.
They could only be illuminated when the Star Diagram first began to operate, and they were the foundation of his existence.
And as luck would have it, when he was born, the stars shone brightly, and a massive Star Power descended from the sky, pouring into Ye Chen's body, instantly giving him the Star Essence needed to illuminate these two hidden Star Souls.
Of these two hidden Star Souls, one was primary and one was secondary. Ye Chen's primary attribute was fire, which not only amplified his Essence, Qi, and Soul by 10 points each, but also gave birth to a silvery Star Flame...
Although this flame is still very weak, as Ye Chen continuously absorbs more Star Power, the temperature of this flame will become higher and higher, until it reaches or even surpasses the level of an abnormal flame...
Ye Chen was very confident about this!
The primary was fire, and the secondary was wood.
Wood aids fire, evolving all gods.
The 'god' here refers to the 'Soul' in Essence, Qi, and Soul, signifying a person's Soul.
The wood attribute directly increased Ye Chen's Soul by 5 points. Coupled with the increase from the primary attribute, Ye Chen now had 15 points of Soul. Combined with his previous Star Flame, he was definitely a promising candidate for an Alchemist!
This was also why Ye Chen had to force himself to study the boring medicine scriptures.
After all, having Transmigrated to the Dou Qi Continent and becoming the legitimate son of the Ye Family, one of the Five Great Clans of the Dan Region, he didn't want the Ye Family to rely on Xiao Yan for their survival, as they did in the original story...
"But now that I'm the legitimate son of the Ye Family, I wonder if Ye Xinlan, the legitimate daughter, still exists... If she does, she's probably my younger sister."
Looking at the moonlight in the sky, Ye Chen couldn't help but think to himself.
"And I wonder what year it is now, and if Xiao Yan hasn't been born yet..."
With a string of questions, Ye Chen rolled onto the bed, pulled the blanket over his head, and went to sleep!
A good night's sleep...
Time flew by like a flash.
Three years passed in the blink of an eye.
Of course, this didn't mean Ye Chen slept for three years; rather, he had been living this kind of life for three years.
Though still a small boy at five years old, Ye Chen had already undergone significant changes.
At the very least, a five-year-old with five segments of Dou Qi was enough to make even the Ye Family gasp in surprise.
There was no other way; for these three years, Ye Chen spent a long time every night absorbing Star Essence...
Although he was young and his Dou Qi Cultivation had just begun, his absorption of Star Essence was very steady. He could accumulate one point every ten days, totaling over thirty points in a year.
Illuminating his first Star Soul consumed 10 points of Star Essence, while the second required 50 points of Star Essence...
If it really was like this, then if he obtained a powerful Star Diagram in the future, with a hundred or eighty Star Palaces, wouldn't it take hundreds or thousands of years to illuminate them all?
Thinking of this, Ye Chen couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
In three years, Ye Chen now had a total of 109.5 Star Essence. After spending 60 points to illuminate the first and second Star Souls, he now had 49.5 remaining...
Hmm, just enough for half the requirement of the third Star Soul.
Whenever he thought of this, Ye Chen could only shake his head and smile wryly.
However, such an expression on a five-year-old Ye Chen seemed a bit out of place...
But Ye Chen wasn't worried about this.
After all, the Star Diagram still had room for upgrades. He figured that once his Star Diagram took shape, this situation would change, otherwise, this Golden Finger would truly be a misnomer...
Currently, Ye Chen was too weak, and even the Ye Family, one of the Five Great Clans of the Dan Region, was similarly so.
Therefore, even though he knew that the Dou Qi Continent had countless powerful Demonic Beasts and even various special forms of life, he currently had no opportunity to obtain them.
But this was not a problem...
Ye Chen was not without advantages.
His biggest advantages were his identity as the legitimate son of the Ye Family and the powerful talent his Star Diagram bestowed upon him!
Backed by the Ye Family, he only needed to display enough talent to qualify for entry into the Dan Tower. If he could find a powerful teacher in the Dan Tower, then none of this would be a problem.
"That's right... doesn't the Dan Tower have the Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire that has already taken human form? Isn't this prepared for me?"
Ye Chen stood there alone, revealing a lewd smile.
The Three Thousand Yan Flame Fire itself was a Star Flame, a perfect match for his Golden Finger!
If he could subdue it and fuse it into form, his future would certainly be limitless...
Of course, the prerequisite for all of this was that he could enter the Dan Tower, and at the very least, become a Core Disciple of the Dan Tower.
Hmm, this could be considered a small early goal for himself.
...
After careful consideration of the two Star Souls, Ye Chen chose to improve his flame control ability and Qi. Essence, Qi, and Soul correspond to physique, Dou Qi, and Soul Power respectively. For him, who already had 15 Soul, Dou Qi was now also a very important part.
Thus, Ye Chen's current attributes were:
Name: Ye Chen
Age: Five years old
Star Essence: 49.5 points
Star Soul: 2 points (Note: The special hidden Star Souls, primary fire and secondary wood, are not included in the calculation.)
Essence: 10; Qi: 12; Soul: 15; Flame Control: 2
Star Domain Skill: None
Star Orbit Skill: None
It was precisely his current 12 points of Qi that allowed Ye Chen to raise his internal Dou Qi to the fifth segment in less than half a year.
This speed had truly shocked the entire Ye Family.
After all, the human body is young, and violent Dou Qi can cause great harm to such a body, which is why the Dou Qi stage exists.
But even using this as a transition, before the age of ten, whether it was an ancient race like the Ancient Eight Clans or ordinary people, the improvement of Dou Qi needed to be gradual, allowing the body to adapt step by step.
Even Xiao Yan began Cultivating Qi at four years old, only reaching nine segments of Dou Qi at ten, and condensing a Dou Qi Cyclone to become a Dou Practitioner at eleven.
If everyone Cultivated like Ye Chen, they would probably become a Dou Practitioner in a year...
And then, then they would be crippled.
For this, Ye Zhong even specially gave Ye Chen a detailed physical examination, almost washing and drying him inside out...
"Young Master! The Family Head wants you to go to the Alchemist Room..."
Outside the door, the maid's voice came, interrupting Ye Chen's thoughts.
"Alchemist Room? What for? Do they want me to start Alchemist now?" Ye Chen muttered in confusion.
Of course, Alchemist was something Ye Chen was overthinking.
No matter how good your talent, without enough Dou Qi to support the flame consumption, you still can't become an Alchemist.
Although Ye Chen's innate Star Flame had now grown to a level comparable to the beast flames of some third-tier Demonic Beasts, with his current five segments of Dou Qi, he couldn't even sustain it for five seconds. So, let alone Alchemist, at most he could put on a fireworks show...
