After a century of worship, I became the ancestor of the tribe

Within the Kyotake mountain range.

Starlight swirled around, and occasionally, creatures could see large stars orbiting overhead, creating a world of stars.

This is a formation phenomenon manifested by a formation built according to a star map.

The reason why celestial phenomena appear from time to time is mainly because the formation has not yet been completed.

Once the star chart formation is completed, the sudden appearance of the great star will completely disappear, and the phenomenon will only reappear when the formation is activated. "I can't sense it."

The Kui Ling perched atop the war drum, tilting its head back to survey the surrounding mountains.

After comprehending the Dao of Earth, Shen Can returned to the area where he had first sensed the Xuan Bird.

Within a radius of tens of thousands of miles, the star arrays slowly ceased their operation, and the starlight in the sky was swept away by his wave of his sleeve.

At this moment, a vast, empty area spanning tens of thousands of miles appeared in the eastern region of the colossal Giant Mountain Formation.

The Five Elements Source Power that had been blocked outside flowed down into this area.

Shen Can sensed the earth element's Daoist aura, wanting to use it to further investigate the location of the Black Bird.

Kui Ling was also nearby, moving its position little by little, stopping every few steps to carefully sense its surroundings.

More than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and there is still no progress.

As always, the Kui Spirit can be confirmed to be within this area of ​​tens of thousands of miles, but its exact location remains as elusive as a mirage.

"They're really good at hiding it."

Over the years, Kui Ling has wandered through the mountains countless times, becoming intimately familiar with every corner of this area. He has explored every stone, every blade of grass, and even the deepest parts of the earth countless times.

The connection between me and my mother is always shrouded in mystery, and I can't pinpoint its exact location.

"If it hadn't been hiding, we wouldn't have faced the Black Bird crisis so long ago."

When the Black Bird was injured, countless seventh-tier beings tried to take advantage of the situation, but none of these powerful creatures, including the Dragon Lord of the Zhang River, were able to find the Black Bird's whereabouts.

The Dragon Lord of Zhangshui is no ordinary being in the Saint Realm, but an old dragon who has long since entered the Earth Saint Realm.

Shen Can casually landed on a mountain, sat down cross-legged, and quietly sensed the surging earth element movement around him.

Little Kui Ling was still unwilling to give up and wandered around the surrounding mountains, like a little dog sniffing around everywhere.

In Shen Can's opinion, the Black Bird was able to hide so deeply, most likely with the help of some external force.

Otherwise, given his injured state, there's no reason why he could have avoided being spied on by the other seventh-tier beings.

"Let's go back."

Shen Can wasn't disappointed that he couldn't find the location of the Black Bird, since it wasn't the first time.

He thought he could think of another way to deal with those statues.

Shen Can called Kui Ling back and headed west along the giant mountain to check the array formations along the way.

Disappointed, the Kui Spirit crawled into the Kui Drum, which then hung on Shen Can's waist.

The man and the drum disappeared from the area.

This area was once again enveloped by the activated star-guiding array, and the five elements source energy that had been released earlier was once again repelled. Compared to more than two hundred years ago, the Giant Mountain Range now boasts many more pavilions, towers, grand palaces, and cave dwellings.

It was no longer a desolate wilderness, but had been transformed into a thriving place for spiritual practice.

In particular, decades ago the formation expanded once again, covering the four prefectures of Yong, Dai and others.

Some of the people who had migrated into Juyue before moved out again, while others built caves in the mountains and stayed in Juyue to cultivate themselves.

This alliance was not stopped; in fact, this approach accelerated the integration within the alliance.

In any case, no matter where you cultivate, you must obey the Alliance's decree.

In addition, the alliance established various colleges, all of which taught according to a unified training curriculum.

The cultivation methods and skills taught in the academy are not the most powerful, but they are the most suitable for most people to cultivate.

Therefore, besides academy training, there are still many master-disciple lineages among martial artists, sorcerers, and various other practitioners.

The alliance strongly encourages this kind of master-apprentice teaching.

Some techniques are only suitable for a small number of people to practice, so this kind of small-scale master-disciple transmission is more appropriate.

As he traveled westward, Shen Can arrived at Zhongji City.

As a city used to transfer materials when the great formation was built, it now stands majestically among the mountains, surrounded by starlight and mist.

The vast city shimmered with starlight, and the shamanic script also lit up from time to time.

The city stands majestically among the mountains, with a towering observatory in the center.

In the past, the Weaver Girl would often practice her spirituality here when she had nothing else to do.

When Shen Can arrived, he didn't see the Weaver Girl, but only Kui Sheng sitting cross-legged on the star-gazing platform with more than forty children around thirteen or fourteen years old. Kui Sheng hadn't expected Shen Can to come either.

Despite being only thirty years old, he had already advanced to the fifth rank. Dressed in a blue robe, he appeared from afar as gentle and refined as a scholar. "Greetings, Temple Master."

Dozens of children hurriedly got up and knelt down in front of Shen Can.

Shen Can helped the flustered children up one by one and asked them their names.

Then he looked at Kuisheng.

After Shen Can touched the Dao of Earth, he finally understood some things about the Dao of Stars.

The reason why Weaver Girl and Kui Sheng cannot resonate with the Dao of Heaven and Earth is mainly because their bodies are too weak and they have not yet reached the point where they can use the Dao to their advantage.

Just as many beings need to cultivate to the peak of the sixth rank before they can begin to touch upon the Dao, it's because their strength is insufficient before that. But for Weaver Girl and Kui Sheng, after sensing the trajectory of the stars, the time it takes to go from the first rank to the sixth rank is only a few decades or a hundred years.

For other creatures in the Great Wilderness, it takes hundreds or even thousands of years to cultivate from the first to the sixth level without ever touching the Dao. Take Shen Can himself, for example; he was almost three hundred years old before he even touched the Dao of Earth.

"Gui Ling pays respects at the temple."

At that moment, a huge, furry rabbit leaped from the edge of the observatory and landed next to Kuisheng.

This rabbit had a faint yellow glow all over its body, and its fur was glossy and smooth. When it stood up, it was much taller than Kui Sheng.

Shen Can immediately recognized the difference in this medicine-pounding rabbit.

The Medicine-Pounding Rabbit clan absorbs the power of the moon, which is the yin star and one of the most powerful stars in the sky.

Over the years, the Alliance has studied the stars, built arrays to draw in the stars, arrays to draw in the power of the sun, and naturally, it has also built many arrays to draw in the moonlight.

Furthermore, Shen Can had also given this clan a supernatural secret technique.

Standing before him, Gui Ling, Shen Can sensed several stars within her body. Strangely, these stars gave Shen Can the exact same feeling: the "moon."

Several moons were arranged inside Gui Ling's body, forming a star map-like pattern.

At this moment, Kui Sheng spoke up, explaining why Gui Ling was there.

It turns out this little rabbit has gained superpowers; it can actually help sense dolls that are suitable for cultivating the Path of Stars.

More than 20 years ago, the alliance issued a strict order that children without talent for cultivation must persist in stargazing for two years.

But for these teenagers, looking at the stars every day doesn't make them understand anything, nor do they comprehend the profound meaning within them.

Often, the feeling of stargazing is actually quite vague, and you can miss it in the blink of an eye.

Gui Ling could sense the little children. The dozens of little ones on the observatory came from all over the alliance. They were all people who had been found by Kui Sheng and Gui Ling in various territories and were connected to the power of the stars.

As long as the stargazing dolls are fully focused and can connect with the power of the stars, Gui Ling can sense something.

However, if the children aren't focused enough while stargazing, and are preoccupied with their own thoughts, Gui Ling won't sense anything. Shen Can checked Gui Ling's body.

"I'm stuck at the peak of the fourth tier and can't advance any further. The Taiyin Stars within my body can no longer connect."

Gui Ling explained his situation, saying that he was imitating the star chart cultivation method.

However, their Medicine-Pounding Rabbit clan only absorbs the power of the moon, so there is only one moon.

Therefore, Gui Ling condensed several moons, wanting to create a multi-moon Taiyin star chart.

It was this sudden inspiration for cultivation that allowed him to sense the boy with the talent of the stars.

However, he is stuck at the peak of the fourth tier and cannot advance to the fifth tier.

"I am practicing the cultivation method that the temple taught to our clan leader Gui Tu. Please grant me a new method."

Gui Ling lay prostrate on the ground, her two large ears bent down, and her two large eyes sparkling.

Temples and shrines specialize in treating difficult and complicated remedies.

Upon hearing Gui Ling's words, Shen Can suddenly remembered that he still owed Chi Huo Lu Wu a secret technique.

"Come to the floating island another day."

Shen Can nodded in agreement. Putting everything else aside, just seeing how enterprising the child was, he felt he had to get him treated.

Not to mention, this bunny can also help the alliance find children with the talent to cultivate the Star Dao.

In fact, over the years, in addition to looking for children with the talent to cultivate the Star Dao, the alliance has also been looking for cultivators like Qi Pu who have a talent for the Five Elements.

Unfortunately, it couldn't be found.

It seems they didn't find the right search method.

The human baby begins practicing martial arts as soon as it is born. It is estimated that before the baby can even realize that it has the talent to sense the Dao, it has already started practicing martial arts techniques.

Consequently, this talent was completely buried.

This is a cultivation habit that has been formed by the human race over many years, and it is not easy to change it all at once.

Gui Ling nodded excitedly.

Afterwards, Kui Sheng explained the progress of Shen Can's cultivation in the Starry Sky Path.

These children have a much weaker sensitivity to the stars than Kui Sheng, and are unable to enter the path of Taoism through stargazing.

The alliance taught them the Starry Sky Technique, as well as the cultivation experience of Kui Sheng and Zhi Nu.

After a short stay at the observatory, Shen Can left Zhongji City and headed north.

On the way, he sent a message to Yanlong, asking him to retrieve the cultivation information of the Medicine-Pounding Rabbit Clan over the years and place it in his side hall.

That way, he can watch it directly when he gets back.

Shen Can's journey north was naturally to one place.

This place was originally the ancestral land of the Piercing Chest Clan, but due to the harsh environment and the abundance of poisonous insects and snakes, it once became a place where Alliance wizards came to test medicines. Later, given the harsh environment here, all the Black Bird statues obtained from other places were moved here for safekeeping.

Since the rise of the Human Alliance in Giant Mountain, a total of six Xuan Bird statues have been discovered, one of which came from the Pu Clan.

It was the temple that the Holy Criminals worshipped at that time.

Since the rise of the Human Alliance and its becoming one of the sixth-tier forces of the Tu Shang Ancient City Alliance.

The Pu clan royal court abandoned the Yue Shan clan territory in the westernmost part of the Pu Kingdom and significantly reduced its clan strength to the east.

In the eastern wilderness of the Giant Mountain Range, a new settlement of humans has been formed.

In fact, the Pu tribe's royal court was also quite confused, not knowing what was going on. Many years had passed in the blink of an eye, and suddenly they found that the world had changed.

The six Xuan Bird statues were placed independently, and each one was shrouded in an array to isolate the internal and external energies.

There are also human guards arranged by the Alliance here, who keep a close eye on the changes in the Xuan Bird statue.

It's a pity that there hasn't been any news for so many years.

Inside the cave, a bronze-cast black bird is depicted spreading its wings and soaring high, containing countless shamanistic inscriptions.

Upon seeing the Xuan Bird statue again, Shen Can realized that the casting materials were of good quality.

Although it's not a seventh-tier mineral, it is still a Daoist mineral.

This mineral can be used as an auxiliary material for seventh-tier royal artifacts.

As his cultivation level improved, he could now clearly see many of the incantations that he couldn't see before.

Back then, Shen Can deciphered the communication script from these shamanic texts and built the alliance's communication system.

He felt a powerful pressure emanating from the Black Bird statue, a pressure far stronger than when he first saw the statue in the Holy Envoy Clan.

This is because he has become powerful, which gives him the ability to perceive the power of the Black Bird Divine Statue.

Before, I could only feel that it was awesome, but now it's a bit better; I can begin to understand why it's awesome.

While resisting the powerful pressure, Shen Can released a wisp of his divine sense to sense the surging witchcraft spirit barrier on the statue.

He then proceeded to decipher the complex shamanic incantations and spiritual restrictions by deduce and observe them.

The surging spiritual barrier is like a thick, enveloping net; to peek into its core, one must peel back the layers one by one.

Shen Can didn't intend to explore it all at once. Every time he felt his mind was getting tired, he would stop spying. Then, he would go back and deduce the spiritual restrictions he had discovered, and only return to continue spying after he had figured them out.

Shen Can was also afraid of disturbing the black bird, so he was always very careful.

And so he would come every now and then, busy with other things in between.

More than half a year later.

When Shen Can returned to the statue of the Black Bird, he finally broke through the layers upon layers of spiritual restrictions.

Through the deep eyes of the Black Bird statue, I entered a realm of divine consciousness and saw a chapter.

In the bluish light, the ancient characters meandered like worms, crawling in the light, changing countless times with every breath.

The entire text is less than a hundred words, yet it contains countless wondrous and ever-changing elements.

Based on this chapter of about a hundred words, countless magical spirit barriers were formed around it.

Before even touching this article, Shen Can had already withdrawn his divine sense.

Through the cracking of the outer spiritual barrier, he already knew in general that this was a sacrificial text.

A good sacrificial text can resonate with the spirit being worshipped, allowing it to absorb more offerings and even aiding in its further transformation. However, this sacrificial text, which centers on the Black Bird, will cause any being below the seventh rank to pour out its heart and soul to the Black Bird once touched by it.
