The Divine Martial Stars

When she finally found the place of the immortal, Wang Shiyu was very hopeful. But when she saw the immortal, she became upset again because he was old and weak. Even if he used to be the most powerful man in the world, he was now weak. What could he do?

However, she did not expect that Fairy Emperor of Light would immediately be able to tell that Ming Yue's physique was special. Then, he pointed out that she was Bright Saint Being.

What was a Bright Saint Being?

Wang Shiyu didn't know.

But she knew that according to his words, she seemed to have a chance for cultivation.

This was the most attractive piece of news she had ever heard since she came to this world.

She had suffered a lot before, and even Li Mu couldn't figure out her physique, which made Wang Shiyu almost desperate. The ginseng fruit disliked her, as if she were a sinner. But now, after going through a long period of darkness, was the dawn finally coming?

"Senior, I don't belong to any sect, so I can't practice martial arts. Can I really practice your martial arts?" Wang Shiyu's voice trembled slightly.

"That's right. Of course, you cannot cultivate the ordinary techniques because your meridians are stagnant and your dantian is dried up. You were born with a bright body, like a piece of fine iron." He panted and paused after saying a few words. "That's because your constitution is one of the strongest in the universe ever since ancient times… As long as you obtain the correct cultivation method, you'll be able to rank among the strongest."

"Is this… Really?" Wang Shiyu felt like she was in a dream after suffering so much. She was afraid that it was all a fantasy.

On the other side, Li Mu was also full of tension and expectation.

Wang Shiyu's failure in cultivation had always been a concern of his. Even if this old classmate didn't seem to be impatient in daily life, Li Mu's spiritual force was so strong that he could clearly perceive how anxious she was.

Li Mu also tried a lot of methods, but none of them worked.

Even in the storage devices belonging to Yue Guoxiang, Emperor Qin Ming, and the old woman with the black cane, they found all kinds of martial arts secrets and immortal cultivation methods, but they couldn't find a way to change Wang Shiyu's physique to enable her to cultivate.

Now, could it be solved at last?

With a smile on his wrinkled face, Fairy Emperor of Light said, "Of course, it's true. The Bright Saint Body is a Saintly Being. Any body constitution that is connected to the word 'Saint' is one of the topmost body constitutions in the universe. You only need to practice my cultivation methods and break through the initial stage. Then you can make great progress in a day… Little girl, are you willing to take me as your master?"

Wang Shiyu instinctively looked at Li Mu.

Li Mu smiled and nodded.

"Thump!"

Kneeling on the ground, Wang Shiyu said with great devotion, "Disciple Wang Shiyu pays respects to Master."

Fairy Emperor of Light nodded his head while out of breath and said, "Yes, now that you bow for my kindness, I'll accept you as my disciple. However, if you join my sect, you must abide by our rules. If you betray your master, ancestors, and your sect, you will be punished." He panted and told her 15 rules. They were all ancient rules and did not violate the laws of heaven, earth, and humans. After that, he said, "Are you willing to do so?"

"I'm willing." Wang Shiyu kowtowed.

Due to urgency, they simplified the other rules for the time being.

As Li Mu saw that his complexion was getting worse and worse and was worried that he might not be able to breathe, he quickly took out some magic medicines he got in the Everlasting Heaven.

Fairy Emperor of Light did not refuse, but took a few divine herbs. Then, his complexion became slightly better.

But he took a rest for a while, shook his head, rejected the magic medicine Li Mu handed over, and said, "Thank you, little boy. My injury is deep-rooted. Although these herbs are not common, they are not unprecedented great herbs after all and can't cure me fully. It's just useless."

When he spoke, his left arm was shaking unnaturally. When the wind blew and his sleeve was blown up, a bare arm without a palm was revealed. The muscles around the incision looked like a withered orange, which was extremely abnormal. It was obvious that his hand had been gone for a long time.

As the Fairy Emperor, how could he have lost his palm when he had endless magical power?

What kind of person could defeat this man?

When Li Mu saw it, a thought came to his mind.

Noticing Li Mu's expression, he raised his left arm and looked at the bare arm without a palm. He looked extremely emotional and recalled the past. After a long while, he said blandly, "In the past, when I fought against that devil till the end, I had no choice but to cut off my left hand to turn it into the Five-finger Mountain and suppress that devil. Then, my palm couldn't grow again…" In between words, he sighed.

Everyone was shocked upon hearing this.

"It turns out that this Five-finger Mountain was derived from his left hand?"

"No wonder this mountain peak looks like a human palm… Well, in the end, it was really a manifestation of a Spiritual Master's palm. Fairy Emperor of Light was able to suppress the devil with his own hand, which could be quite heroic."

"What does the unprecedented medicine that Master just mentioned refer to?" Wang Shiyu suddenly asked.

Fairy Emperor of Light looked upset as he said, "The unprecedented medicines are the Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth, the Wondrous Earthvein of the Universe, the Galaxy Spiritual Spring, and the Star Spiritual Core. If you pick one of them, you can survive. However, it's hard to find such medicine in the world. If not for a rare opportunity, even the great masters of the Celestial Immortality would not be able to get it."

"Spiritual roots of heaven and earth?"

Something came to Li Mu's mind in an instant.

Wang Shiyu also came to her senses and said, "Brother Mu said that the ginseng fruit tree is the spiritual root of heaven and earth." She looked at Fairy Emperor of Light and said, "Master, is the ginseng fruit the unprecedented medicine you mentioned?"

"You actually know about life's fruit trees. That's really rare. This kind of fruit tree is indeed the Spiritual Root of the Heavens and Earth. There's a place in this Tomb of the God of Sin where there's such a tree. However, this Tomb of the God of Sin is a place of death after all. The person who built this took away its vitality and the ginseng fruit tree was also petrified. What a pity," he said with a hint of regret.

Wang Shiyu said, "Master, there are four more fruits on the fruit tree. When we came here, we met…"

Fairy Emperor of Light was slightly startled. He said, "How is that possible… Then, where's the fruit?"

Wang Shiyu lowered her head.

Li Mu and the others were also a little confused.

Ming Yue said in a daze, "Master, don't expect any fruit. It's too late since they have been eaten by us… I'm really sorry. We didn't know that this fruit was so important to you."

Fairy Emperor of Light: "…"

"I really didn't expect that there could be four ginseng fruits on that dead tree. Could it be that heaven and earth are recovering, or is there something wrong with this grave?" He was surprised and carefully calculated. However, there was no result, but still, he immediately said with a calm smile, "This is destiny. The matchless medicine, though so close to me, cannot be obtained by me. I will die here."

Qing Feng suddenly said, "No, there's a last one."

Li Mu's eyes also lit up, and he said, "Yes, there is another fruit. It was not eaten, but fell into the ground…" The ginseng fruit that was abandoned by Wang Shiyu was hidden in the underground of the orchard.

Li Mu clearly remembered that in the Journey to the West, Monkey Sun made a fuss in the orchard and the first ginseng fruit that was shaken off fell into the ground. It was also because of this fruit that the number of the fruits was incorrect. Being blamed by Qing Feng and Ming Yue, Monkey Sun was annoyed and knocked over the tree. But later, the Goddess of Mercy saved the fruit tree, and the ginseng fruit that fell from the ground in the beginning also returned to the fruit tree.

This meant that the ginseng that entered the soil could actually be taken back from underground.

"Yes, yes, there is another one." Wang Shiyu's eyes lit up, and she quickly told him what had happened before.

Upon hearing this, Fairy Emperor of Light's face was also filled with joy. He said, "If that's the case, the heavens have also left me a chance to survive."

Wang Shiyu said, "Then we need to go back quickly and go to the orchard to find a way to take the ginseng fruit out from the ground."

At this time, Qing Feng, who had been silent, once again said, "I am afraid that we can't go back. Those sects from the outer space should not be far away from Five-finger Mountain at this time."

Only then did the group remember that there were still vicious enemies behind them.

Qing Feng looked at Fairy Emperor of Light and said, "Senior, do you have any idea how to make the sects from outer space give way or retreat?"

When Fairy Emperor of Light heard this, he said, "A thousand years ago when I sent out the map to seek outsiders to come and take away my heritage, I didn't expect that I could live a thousand years. Now that I'm already on the verge of death, I'm afraid it'll be very difficult for me to threaten these sects to retreat."

He, having once been famous, had turned into a useless one.

Among the Immortal sects, for the sake of cultivation methods and resources, what sort of bloody fight had not occurred? In order to compete for the inheritance, those sects would do anything crazy.

Qing Feng asked again, "Senior, what is the devil suppressed at the foot of Five-finger Mountain?"

Fairy Emperor of Light was startled, then said, "It was a fiendish demon that escaped from the Sinful Land and devoured all living beings. After he grew up, he could directly destroy the Star Area… Why do you ask about this?"

Qing Feng smiled and said, "I'm just curious."

Wang Shiyu said, "Now it's not a good time… By the way, I remember that when we were surrounded in the Five Villages Temple, those people said that after eating the ginseng fruit, the effect of the medicine could be possessed by our bodies. If you drink some of the medicine-filled blood, will you be able to recover some strength?"

Her proposal surprised Li Mu and the others.

Qing Feng frowned, looked at Wang Shiyu, and then looked at Li Mu, but finally did not speak.

Ming Yue said with a dazed and naive expression, "Master, is my sister's idea feasible? If so, I'll give you some of my blood."

Fairy Emperor of Light said, "In theory, it's possible for me to restore some of my strength. However, drinking other people's blood is not the right thing to do…"

"Fussy." Ming Yue directly cut her arm open, took out a jade bowl, and accumulated a small half-bowl of blood. She handed it over and said, "Master, is this enough?"
