Tian Shu Wu Wang Lu

After the apprenticeship ceremony was completed, Master Xuanzhen looked at Lin Ye, his expression gradually becoming solemn. He condensed a wisp of pure star power at his fingertips and gently touched Lin Ye's brow: "I will pass on to you the orthodox star cultivation method of our sect. The realm is divided into five levels. You must remember them well and cultivate steadily—Star Attraction → Star Condensation → Spirit Star → Star Bridge → Star Core. This method is suitable for your star cultivation physique. You must proceed step by step and never be impatient for quick results, lest your foundation become unstable."

A warm current instantly surged into Lin Ye's mind, and all the star cultivation techniques, mental methods, realm essentials, and star power circulation routes passed down by his master were imprinted into Lin Ye's sea of ​​consciousness, becoming crystal clear.

Just as the cultivation technique entered his body, the ancient jade book that had been dormant since his transmigration suddenly awakened deep within Lin Ye's mind. A dark golden halo spread out, and the five ancient star-script characters "Tian Shu Wu Wang Lu" (Record of the Unfettered Heavenly Pivot) instantly swept over his entire consciousness with the pressure of the vast stars, even causing ripples in his sea of ​​consciousness.

He suppressed his emotions and carefully compared the information in his mind without showing any emotion. The next second, he was overwhelmed with shock and almost lost his composure.

The star cultivation technique passed down by my master is already a top-tier orthodox method. The star power circulation is orderly and the realm path is clear, which is enough for ordinary star cultivators to regard as a treasure. However, when placed in front of the "Tian Shu Wu Wang Lu", it reveals its shortcomings everywhere.

In terms of absorbing star power, the master's technique draws scattered star power from the surrounding area into the body, which is gentle but slow; while the "Tian Shu Wu Wang Lu" can directly connect with the natal stars of the Nine Heavens and draw the power of the Milky Way into the body. The absorption speed is more than ten times that of the former, and the star power is purer and more domineering, without any impurities.

In terms of operational pathways, Master's cultivation method follows the rules and regulations, occasionally encountering obstacles; the "Tian Shu Wu Wang Lu" path is profound and complex, directly connecting to the body's stellar meridians without any barriers, and can also repair hidden injuries from cultivation on its own, nurturing the soul and stellar core.

In terms of realm compatibility, the five realms taught by the master are not only fully compatible with the "Tian Shu Wu Wang Lu" but also have a deeper level of supplementation. From stardust entering the body to the Tian Shu Star Core, the breakthrough techniques, foundation tempering, and combat power enhancement of each level are clearly marked, completely severing the shackles of cultivation. It even contains ancient secret techniques such as star power turning into weapons and star escape techniques, which are far beyond the reach of ordinary cultivation methods.

More importantly, this cultivation technique shares the same origin as Xing Jin's ancient star spirit power. The resonance between the two can fully activate his innate star cultivator physique, something that no other cultivation technique in the world can achieve.

Comparing the two, the techniques passed down by the master are like a stream, while the "Tian Shu Wu Wang Lu" is like a vast starry sea; the difference in quality is immediately apparent.

Lin Ye's palm clenched slightly, instantly understanding the principle that possessing a treasure is a crime.

Such heaven-defying techniques, if leaked, will surely bring about a fatal disaster, and may even implicate the sect.

The orthodox cultivation method passed down by the master can serve as an excellent cover. On the surface, one can practice the sect's cultivation method while secretly studying the "Tian Shu Wu Wang Lu". This allows one to cultivate steadily, deceive everyone, and steadily reach the top.

In the blink of an eye, he suppressed all his mental fluctuations, his face still showing a respectful and composed demeanor, his eyes clear and without the slightest flaw.

Seeing that he was calmly contemplating the technique, Jiang Xubai stepped forward and spoke gently, his tone full of an elder brother's earnest advice, firm and reassuring: "Junior brother, take your time to comprehend the foundation of the technique. There's no need to be impatient. If you encounter any bottlenecks, or if you wish to study practical combat techniques, enemy response methods, or the practical application of the technique, feel free to come to me. I will teach you everything I know. Within this sect, with me here, no one will dare to bully you in the slightest. If anyone causes you trouble, don't tolerate it; just tell me."

He has always been gentle and modest, elegant and upright, and he always puts the big picture first without being pedantic. He is kind to people in his daily life, but he is never ambiguous when it comes to protecting his fellow disciples. He has already made up his mind to do his best to help Lin Ye, shield him from all troubles, and take care of the aftermath.

Shen Qingyuan echoed softly, a hint of tenderness appearing in her cool eyes. She even took out a handful of spiritual fruits from her storage bag and stuffed them into Lin Ye's hands, her tone sincere and slightly earnest: "Junior brother, what senior brother said is absolutely right. I can also spar with you in star arts and guide you on how to control star power. These spiritual fruits can aid your cultivation. Take them; eat them when you get tired of cultivating. Don't make yourself suffer. We are fellow disciples, helping each other and improving together. You've come this far from humble beginnings, which already makes you more capable than others. From now on, just focus on your cultivation; we'll all be here for you."

This short sentence is not only a word of care, but also an undisguised encouragement, a complete recognition of the junior's hard work.

Master Xuanzhen gently stroked the star-patterned whisk and added with a smile, "You child, though you come from humble origins, you have never given up on yourself. You have achieved what you have today entirely through your own perseverance. If you continue to cultivate diligently, you will surely achieve great things. There is no need to belittle yourself."

Listening to the encouragement from his master and fellow disciples, Lin Ye felt a warmth in his heart. The days he had been bullied and looked down upon in the menial labor quarters flooded back, but he had never given up. Even with the hardships of day and night, he had never abandoned his cultivation, persevering step by step until he finally received this opportunity. All the suffering and sleepless nights he had endured had now become his most solid foundation. He clenched his fists, his eyes filled with unwavering determination. All his inspiration and perseverance transformed into a steadfast promise.

"This disciple will remember Master's teachings. I am grateful for the kindness of my eldest and second senior brothers and sisters. This disciple will definitely cultivate diligently and will never let down the expectations of our sect!"

After saying this, Master Xuanzhen waved his sleeve, and a Star Essence Stone containing rich ancient star power slowly fell into Lin Ye's hand, instructing him to go to the private quiet room of Qingxuan Immortal Mansion to cultivate in seclusion.

Jiang Xubai and Shen Qingyuan personally saw them off, explaining the precautions for cultivating the technique in detail along the way. Shen Qingyuan kept reminding them that they couldn't stay up late while cultivating and that they should come to her for spiritual food if they got hungry. Her rambling manner was completely different from her usual aloofness, making her seem like a caring senior sister.

As they approached the entrance to the meditation room, Jiang Xubai pointed to the plump crane in the courtyard and chuckled, saying, "That's the spirit crane that Master raised. It's greedy and loves to sleep. Don't take it personally. If it steals your spirit fruit, just tell me, and I'll punish it by confining it to its quarters."

After the two left, Lin Ye entered the quiet and secluded room, sat cross-legged, and Xing Jin obediently lay on his lap. The golden pattern on his forehead resonated with the "Tian Shu Wu Wang Lu" in his consciousness, and the star power flowing around his body became more and more docile.

Lin Ye closed his eyes and focused his mind, slowly circulating the Star Cultivation Technique taught by his master on the surface, his breathing steady, in order to conceal his aura; deep in his consciousness, however, he was fully activating the "Tian Shu Wu Wang Lu".

In an instant, the power of the stars outside the window transformed into an invisible torrent, breaking through the clouds and surging wildly into the quiet room. Following the extremely profound cultivation method, it flowed through his limbs and bones, and the stardust power in his dantian rapidly condensed. The foundation of the stardust entering his body was rapidly solidified at a speed visible to the naked eye, which was a hundred times more efficient than simply cultivating the sect's cultivation method.

He recalled the hardships of the past and the warmth of his sect at this moment. There was no impatience in his eyes, only a down-to-earth determination. His hard-working, steady, and never opportunistic qualities from when he was a food deliveryman were fully reflected on his spiritual path.

From an ignored servant disciple to now being accepted as a disciple of a top elder, he has never relied on luck, but on his unwavering perseverance.

Outside the window, a plump crane swayed its round body and dozed off under a tree. Inside the quiet room, starlight flowed, and a young man sat upright, his heart filled with sincerity, his steps firm and resolute.

With extraordinary cultivation techniques at his disposal and a warm-hearted sect by his side, all the hardships he has endured in the past have been the foundation for his growth; all his future cultivation will be an upward journey. His path of star cultivation is destined to lead him from the ordinary to the glorious, living up to his own expectations and his sect's expectations!
