With Xuan Yi's consent, Ye Chen's trip to the star field to refine alchemy became a foregone conclusion.
Arriving at the sky, Xuan Kongzi and the other man looked at each other, and their hand seals changed like lightning. Vast soul fluctuations spread out from their bodies. Soon, Ye Chen saw that the empty sky suddenly fluctuated violently, and then a light silver space gate appeared in their sight.
"Let's go." Xuan Kongzi said, and walked into the gate first.
Ye Chen glanced at Xuan Yi on the other side and saw that the other party had no intention of entering. He then followed his teacher's footsteps and entered the space gate.
The moment the two entered, Xuan Yi waved his hand outside, and the silver space gate disappeared immediately, and the sky returned to calm again...
The empty space suddenly fluctuated, and then two figures slowly emerged.
As soon as he emerged, Ye Chen felt a scorching heat coming towards him. At the same time, the spark in his body suddenly became blazing with anger...
Ye Chen had only seen this kind of reaction from the Spark when he encountered the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire and the Ocean Heart Flame. This time, the Spark's reaction was clearly even stronger, proving that within this space, there existed a flame far stronger than the Spark.
Xuan Kongzi glanced at Ye Chen and explained softly, "This star field is actually a space that was forcibly torn out from the cracks in the void by me, your uncle Xuanyi, and your uncle Tianleizi. This kind of space is naturally not as exotic as the Danta Dan Realm, but it also has its own wonders..."
Ye Chen nodded slightly and glanced at the surrounding environment. It looked quite desolate, with a faint hot mist all around. Faintly, there was some weak light seeping into the space, making the light here seem a little cold.
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. He was very familiar with this strange energy...
He casually grabbed the faint light with his hand, but it felt cold where he touched it. Then the coldness went along Ye Chen's arm and merged into his meridians.
This scene shocked Xuan Kongzi next to him again.
That light was actually materialized starlight. While ordinary people could touch it within this star field, absorbing it into their bodies was impossible. Even forcing it to absorb could damage their meridians and dantian...
As the starlight entered his body, Ye Chen's eyes suddenly widened.
This is not because his body can absorb starlight. In fact, after possessing the acquired ancient star physique, Ye Chen's body itself will have a huge attraction to these starlights.
What shocked him was that these star rays did not enter his dantian, but were directly absorbed by the star map hidden in the deepest part of his soul...
"Holy crap! Could it be that the Star Essence Diagram can directly transform and absorb starlight?"
Ye Chen's consciousness quickly went deep into the Star Map, and then tried to see what the starlight was used for...
Unfortunately, perhaps because there were too few stars, Ye Chen discovered that nothing in the star map had changed. Even the star energy he initially judged had not increased.
"Is it really because there are too few stars?"
Thinking of this, Ye Chen glanced at the densely packed faint light points in the surrounding space again...
If there are too few star rays, you can try to absorb more.
But now is obviously not the time to make such an attempt, because Xuan Kongzi is still waiting beside him...
"What's wrong? Did you find something wrong?" Xuan Kongzi asked hurriedly when he saw Ye Chen come back to his senses.
Obviously, he was also worried that the scene just now might cause any harm to his disciple.
Ye Chen smiled and shook his head, saying: "Rather than saying there's anything wrong, it feels really good! Teacher, I found that after these star rays entered my body, they actually had some benefits for my cultivation. I wonder if I can cultivate in this star field in the future?"
"Uh...what did you say?" Xuan Kongzi was stunned by his disciple's question.
"Practice? Here?"
You know, this star field is very desolate, and apart from the rich star power surrounding it, the energy is very weak. Not to mention compared with Zhongzhou, even the Northwest Continent has more energy than here.
Are you sure you're not wasting your time practicing in a place like this?
Seeing this, Ye Chen pondered for a moment and understood what Xuan Kongzi was thinking.
This star field is indeed not suitable for cultivation, but if I just come here occasionally to absorb the star essence, maybe I can make up for the time I lost in cultivating fighting spirit and alchemy...
Thinking of this, Ye Chen quickly explained: "Teacher, I was asking if I could come here occasionally to absorb some of these starlights, because I found that these strange star powers can provide great help to my cultivation!"
"I see!"
Xuan Kongzi nodded.
But he suddenly thought of something. It seemed that the mysterious strong man that the ancestor had mentioned had directly broken through the boundaries of the continent and entered the endless starry sky...
"Could it be that this powerful being actually came from the endless starry sky? So Chen'er was able to cultivate with star power only after he received his inheritance?"
Of course, Xuan Kongzi himself didn't quite believe the first idea.
Because there has never been any information about the arrival of a powerful figure from the endless starry sky on the mainland, Xuan Kongzi would rather believe that this is due to the special cultivation method of that powerful figure.
The Douqi Continent is quite large, and the races living on this continent are also very strange. It is not uncommon to have one or two special ones.
"It's not impossible to cultivate. But it's definitely not possible in a short period of time, because I originally planned to send you to a secret place for retreat after you returned home to visit your family..."
"Retreat in a secret realm?" Ye Chen was also stunned. He obviously did not expect Xuan Kongzi to have such an arrangement.
But then, he became curious again: "What kind of secret realm is it?"
"Haha, it's too early to talk about this now. Aren't you going to refine the Xingyuan Pill? You will know about the secret realm by then..." Xuan Kongzi said with a mysterious smile.
Well, if the teacher doesn't want to say it, there's nothing Ye Chen can do.
However, it seems that I will definitely have to live in seclusion for a long time from now on...
Actually, this is not bad...
Ye Chen thought to himself.
After refining the Xingyuan Pill and handing it over to the family, the Ye family actually had no use for him in the following period...
Moreover, if he could achieve a huge improvement in his strength and alchemy skills during this period of time, it would be beneficial to both Ye Chen himself and the Ye family!
