Chapter 379: Star Lord Palace

Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: Sparrow Translations

Following Mo Wuji's closed door cultivation, Zhen Xing was peaceful; Broken Sect cultivators continued to be arrested, and Zhen Xing returned back to its original path.

At the beginning, a few hall masters and elders of Star King Mountain were still worried that the Broken Sect's Sect Head Zhu Qu would suddenly appear after he recuperated from his injuries. However, after experiencing four months of calm, Star King Mountain was able to put their hearts at ease.

…

This was already the fifth month of Mo Wuji’s closed door cultivation. Even though the Star Lord Mountain had the densest concentration of spiritual energy in the entire Zhen Xing, Mo Wuji was still in True God Stage Level 10 after 5 months. True God Stage Level 11 still seemed far from reach, much less the Worldly Immortal Stage.

Mo Wuji had also predicted that when he was at this level, he could only slowly raise his cultivation assiduously. Unless he managed to find those spirit stone slags from the Half Moon Prison, there wasn't any shortcut that he could take.

After confining himself for five consecutive months, and using all sorts of spiritual items to no avail, Mo Wuji left his closed doors. He was worried that Broken Sect's Sect Head Zhu Qu would act against Star King Mountain.

Even though there were many Worldly Immortals in Star King Mountain, the person with the highest cultivation, Sang Caihe, was far from being a match for Zhu Qu.

When Mo Wuji just left Star Lord Mountain, he instantly saw Chi Huo'Er. Chi Huo'Er was like a straight javelin, standing right at the center of the defensive array outside Star Lord Mountain.

”Manager Chi, what are you going here?” Mo Wuji landed by Chi Huo'Er's side and asked quizzically.

Star Lord Mountain was enveloped in boundless spiritual energy, and at the same time, it was protected by Star King Mountain's strongest defensive array. Without Mo Wuji's permission, no one was allowed to enter Star King Mountain. Thus, there was no need for someone to stand guard. Chi Huo'Er standing here left Mo Wuji rather confused.

Chi Huo'Er immediately bowed, ”I’ve always been the defender of the Star King Mountain's Star Lord. As long as the Star King Mountain lives, I will continue to protect Star Lord Mountain.”

Mo Wuji was secretly speechless. This Chi Huo'Er was at least over a thousand years old? Could he have stood guard over here for hundreds of years?

”Manager Chi, the time I spend behind closed doors is uncertain. In the future, you don't need to stand guard here,” Mo Wuji responded. He knew that as a Worldly Immortal, what Chi Huo'Er needed to do now was to spend his time cultivating, and not waste his time on doing this guard duty.

Chi Huo'Er shook his head, ”This is my duty. Moreover, when I stand here, I can borrow the Star Lord Mountain's spiritual energy to cultivate.”

Seeing that Chi Huo’Er would not be swayed by his persuasions, Mo Wuji asked, ”During my closed doors, did anything happen in the Universal Hall? And did Zhu Qu continue to do anything?”

”Under the protection of the hall masters and elders, Zhen Xing has returned back to stable state. Zhu Qu and that Space Wolf King have yet to appear. Also, Tian Chi Manor's Yan Huimeng came to visit the Star Lord twice. When she heard that the Star Lord was behind closed doors, she only said that she'll pay a visit in the future,”Chi Huo'Er replied hurriedly.

Mo Wuji originally wanted to inquire about Zhu Qu's matter. When be heard that Zhu Qu did not appear, there was no longer a need for him to find Su Xuan and co. On the other hand, he wasn’t familiar with Yan Huimeng, so he casually asked, ”Why did the Tian Chi Manor’s manor lord come?”

Chi Huo’Er answered, ”For a long time, the prettiest women in Zhen Mo Continent have come from Tian Chi Manor. Many of the Worldly Immortal experts from Star King Mountain have dao companions that come from Tian Chi Manor. This generation’s Tian Chi Manor Lord, Yan Huimeng, has a disciple called Zhuang Xiyue, whose beauty was like a fairy, beautifully enrapturing. That Yan Huimeng originally wanted to bethrothed Zhuang Xiyue to Lei Hongji. However, Lei Hongji had betrayed Star King Mountain. Even though Yan Huimeng didn’t clearly state her intentions, she should be here to betroth her disciple, Zhuang Xiyue, to the Star Lord.”

So it was just a small matter; Mo Wuji immediately cast it aside. Ever since he came to Zhen Xing, he only had two loved ones. One was Yan’Er, who supported him in his time of poverty. The other was Cen Shuyin, who truly moved his heart.

Yan’Er’s memories of him had already disappeared, and in exchange, her cultivation swelled rapidly. She’s now following beside the experienced Bei Suting, so she shouldn’t have faced any problems.

Cen Shuyin had perished within his embrace. No one else could replace her position in his heart. To him, it didn’t matter how beautiful other women were, they were merely as transient as fleeting clouds. His heart would not belong to any other woman.

Just when he was thinking whether he should continue to go back into closed doors, Chi Huo’Er suddenly asked, ”Star Lord’s cultivation doesn’t seem to have improved much. I wonder if you’ve been to the Star Lord Palace?”

Mo Wuji startled, asking immediately, ”What’s the Star Lord Palace?”

He was indeed a Star Lord, but he had never truly seen himself as the Star Lord.

Him being a Star Lord, and him coming to Star King Mountain, were all things that happened by accident. Fortunately, Star King Mountain had the Star Lord Mountain. This place was suitable for him to cultivate, which was why he stayed behind. Otherwise, he might not have stayed here. He really couldn’t be bothered about the matters of Star King Mountain.

The only time when he used his power as the Star Lord was when he hunted the Broken Sect. As the Star Lord, he gathered a group of Worldly Immortal experts to pursue and hunt Zhu Qu down.

Thereafter, he chose to immediately enter closed door cultivation within Star King Mountain.

He knew of the Star Lord Hall, however, this was really his first time hearing of Star Lord Palace.

This time, it was Chi Huo’Er’s turn to be startled. Luckily, he reacted quickly and said promptly, ”When the Star Lord was cultivating, you probably didn’t explore around.”

Mo Wuji nodded; these words were true. When he was cultivating in Star Lord Mountain, he truly didn’t explore around the area. However, he did scan the area with his spiritual will, and he knew that there was still an altar on Star Lord Mountain. Below that altar, there were several memorial tablets. From Mo Wuji’s perspective, they should be the memorial tablets of the previous Star Lords. In actuality, he did indeed see Chi Tong’s and Wu Lingzhi’s memorial tablet.

Whether it was Chi Tong or Wu Lingzhi, Mo Wuji wasn’t very familiar with them. This was even more so for the other Star Lords, so he didn’t bother looking through the tablets.
