I am a demonic cultivator, not a capitalist with a conscience.

Chapter 150 Let me see (26)

Chen Yu is in a bad mood right now.

Although money was made, what was the price?

Positive emotions accumulated within him, but his Heavenly Demon Body kept warning him to release these positive emotions.

A strong urge welled up within him, making him feel compelled to do something to release it.

However, the "Questioning the Heart Manual" that Zhong Zheng had given him earlier had an effect. His strengthened Dao heart allowed him to restrain his impulses, but he couldn't restrain them for long.

Suppressing his impulse, Chen Yu saw a long rainbow streak cutting through the sky.

The colorful stream of light resembled continuous mountain peaks or radiant clouds, carrying endless glory as it pierced through the vast sky, dyeing the sky with colors for thousands of miles.

Even though he was being tormented by the power of the technique, Chen Yu still wanted to say, "This Star Lord's special effects are so cool!"

A moment later, the blurry shadow fell above Tianyuan City, and a temple keeper, radiant with light and so dazzling that his human form was almost indistinguishable, and whose gender was hard to tell, appeared before everyone.

The Star Lord cannot appear in the mortal realm in his true form. This is not a prohibition, but because the Star Lord's Dao aura is too powerful. If an ordinary cultivator sees him, at best his Dao heart will be shattered, and at worst he will lose all consciousness and become a walking corpse who only knows how to sing praises to the Star Lord.

Even the temple priests of the Star Lord need to cover their faces with blue paper, otherwise they will be contaminated by the Star Lord's Taoist aura.

Therefore, the will of the star deities often needs to be conveyed through temple priests. Many powerful star deities often require multiple temple priests to serve them, with each person working for a day and then resting to alleviate the influence of the Daoist energy.

The luminous temple keeper slowly approached, his gaze fixed on Chen Yu, and he bowed slightly before saying, "I am the temple keeper of the Star Lord of Flowing Light, and I have come here on the orders of the Star Lord of Flowing Light to convey His thoughts to Mr. Morning Light."

Squinting, Chen Yu tried to avoid too much light pollution: "What are your thoughts?"

The temple keeper gave Chen Yu a thumbs-up and nodded vigorously.

"Um... what does this mean?"

"It means very good. Lord Liuguang doesn't like to talk, he only likes beautiful and fun things. He really likes your dream, it's much better than the Xu Group's, so he asked me to come and praise you."

"Ah, thanks."

"As a reward for you, the Star Lord of Flowing Light has bestowed upon you the title 'Excellent'."

"Don't tell me that the title is great."

"That's right. You can check the results yourself."

After checking the effects of the cultivation technique, Chen Yu discovered that his spiritual root rating had increased by one point, now reaching 93.

It is clear that each title increases the spiritual root score by one point. I wonder if different titles add the same number of points.

In addition, the title also comes with a new title skill: Radiant Splendor (Level 1).
This skill makes one's moves or actions look cooler. Although it has no offensive power, it gives onlookers a pleasing and powerful feeling.

Although it seemed useless, Chen Yu discovered that it was a magical skill for creating dreams.

With this skill, you can add special effects to many characters in the dream world, which can greatly enhance the character's coolness.

Moreover, because it is a skill of the Star Lord title, even if the opponent is a Golden Core cultivator, they can still feel its coolness, which greatly enhances the dream crowd.

Nodding in satisfaction, Chen Yu felt he had made a profit this time.

Lord Liuguang, I forgive you.

"Also, Star Lord Liuguang is preparing to absorb the 'Records of Mountains and Seas,' and you can make a request to him. However, Star Lord Liuguang is, after all, a Star Lord, and you only have one chance to make a request. If the request is inappropriate, Star Lord Liuguang will not agree."

Upon hearing this, Zhong Zheng immediately felt nervous and wanted to remind Chen Yu.

But just as he was about to speak, he saw Chen Yu enveloped by a stream of light, completely isolating him from the outside world.

Within the cage of light, the temple keeper said, "Chen Yu, this is a personal reward from the Star Lord of Flowing Light; you don't need to listen to outsiders' guidance. Now, tell me your thoughts, and I will convey them to the Star Lord." "What's there to consider? Could the Star Lord of Flowing Light help remove the area lock? If not, a slight loosening would be fine too."

The temple keeper nodded, seemingly unconcerned about Chen Yu's thoughts, and directly relayed Chen Yu's opinion to Liuguang Xingjun.

She stood quietly for a moment, then nodded again, her voice much softer.

"The Star Lord accepted your request and, together with the Wood Virtue Star Lord, unlocked the seal on part of the area. From now on, all who believe in the Flowing Light Star Lord, all who believe in the Five Virtue Star Lord, and even those who possess the title of the Five Virtue Star Lord, can freely enter and exit Tianyuan. However, because the previous chosen one of the Wood Virtue Star Lords took the feat of walking, all those who wish to enter and exit Tianyuan must walk more than twenty kilometers to cross the boundary."

Although it's still a bit troublesome, it's much simpler than the previous strict entry and exit conditions.

Moreover, this method allows cultivators to greatly reduce the costs of entering and exiting, mitigating the impact of area locks, which is very good news recently.

Letting out a long breath, Chen Yu said sincerely, "Thank you, Star Lord Liuguang."

"You're too kind. It's because your dream is so excellent, Chenguang, that it has value for circulation. Otherwise, the Star Lord wouldn't have been so lenient. And please don't complain about the troublesome process. The Star Lord has his own considerations."

Finding the temple keeper in front of him to be relatively easy to talk to, Chen Yu took the opportunity to ask, "What are your considerations?"

"Hmm... Star Lords symbolize both limitations and power, and area locks are the manifestation of those limitations. Abruptly lifting an area lock is actually a negation of other Star Lords, so it won't be lifted casually. When other Star Lords lift area locks, it's more like they're adding some restrictions to the existing area locks. Since it's not lifted, it's not considered a negation, and the Star Lord who imposed the area lock won't be too resentful."

Hearing this, Chen Yu suddenly realized: "So that's it! No wonder so many systems in Changsheng Prefecture and even the Great Qian Dynasty are so bizarre. It's because they don't negate the old ones, but just keep adding restrictions."

"That's what I mean."

"It seems quite troublesome to implement this, so is there any way to get the Star Lord to voluntarily withdraw it?"

"Yes. Different star deities have different preferences. You can try to find the star deity who has imposed the area lock, and then cater to their preferences and try to please them to get them to lift the lock. However, the star deity's name is usually hidden, so it will probably take some effort to find out."

Chen Yu wanted to ask more questions, but the temple keeper in front of him raised his hand to stop him from continuing.

"The secrets of the Star Lords cannot be put into writing, nor can they be circulated casually. What they are willing to reveal is often only what they want others to know, but only the Star Lords themselves know the truth. You have asked enough questions today, please forgive me."

"No, no, I'm already very grateful that you could trouble Star Lord Liuguang to add conditions. I don't know what the temple keeper likes, but I can't let you come for nothing."

The other person told me a lot of things as soon as we met, and it already felt like we were having a deep conversation even though we were not close friends.

Since that's the case, Chen Yu can't be stingy, and he'll also look for opportunities to spend money.

The temple keeper pondered for a moment, then whispered, "I've heard that Tianyuan's barbecue festival is amazing. I wonder if it's true?"

“I haven’t been to other places, but it should be true.”

"I heard there are often all-you-can-eat deals here for a few dozen yuan, is that true or not?"

"It's not an event, it happens every night."

The temple keeper breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. To be honest, I have a big appetite by nature, and I'm always only three-tenths full no matter how much I eat. Even working three jobs, I'm still hungry. If you don't mind, can I come over for a meal once in a while?"

"Come on, Tianyuan is never stingy. You can even try out our little restaurant here. Just mention my name and put it on my tab."

"Thank you very much."

That evening, a vendor reported that he had been maliciously tricked, and a magical illusion had eaten 100 pounds of his flesh. He suspected it was some kind of evil spirit and said that a strong crackdown was necessary!
In response, Chen Yu said, "This is a good person. You are not allowed to insult my friend. I will pay the bill!"
After learning of Chen Yu's choice, Zhong Zheng didn't say anything, but simply bowed deeply before going back to prepare the relevant measures.

Although the method of entering and exiting Tianyuan is troublesome, compared to other places that are still under area lock, this is already a great opportunity.

At midnight, the day's activities finally came to an end.

Wang Ma began to rest, and the others returned to their posts. Chen Yu then walked alone into the open field and released the restrictions on his martial arts.

Come on, let me see what it is this time!
