The master and deputy master of the Broken Star Ancient Palace were once the so-called Sons of the Stars.
Among the several sons of the stars in each generation, only one can ascend to the throne and become the Lord of the Stars.
The rest have the opportunity to become elders and deputy hall masters.
Luo Wanxiang, the son of the stars of the previous generation, failed in the competition for the palace master and could only become the deputy palace master.
He has no hope in his life to become the master of the Broken Star Ancient Palace. After the current master dies, the new master still has to be formed from the new son of the stars.
The deputy hall masters and elders often make bets in advance, choosing those who have great potential and are most promising to become the Lord of the Stars to take the initiative to show their favor.
Obviously, the target of Luo Wanxiang's bet is Sikong Cuo, the sixth son of the stars.
Once Sikong Cuo can successfully reach the top in the future and become the master of the Broken Star Ancient Palace, Sikong Cuo can use the sect's resources to seek benefits for Luo Wanxiang's subordinates.
Luo Wanxiang will grow old one day and die like the palace master.
After he died, his family and relatives could be protected by Sikong Cuo and continue to maintain their transcendent status in the Broken Star Ancient Palace.
Everything Luo Wanxiang has done for Sikong Cuo now will benefit his family and relatives thousands of years later, when Sikong Cuo becomes the new palace master.
"I gained 500,000 merit points in the Tianyin Star Territory, but Sikong Cuo actually had 800,000! The remnant of the Blood Juezi recruited by Sikong Cuo, who was originally the Blood Spirit Son, was selectively ignored..."
Nie Tianyin had a sullen face, realizing for the first time that there was still a struggle for power within an ancient sect like Broken Star Ancient Palace.
Sikong Cuo's defeat in the Tianyin Star Territory caused heavy casualties among his subordinates, and his strength has been greatly reduced.
Unexpectedly, even so, Luo Wanxiang still believed that Sikong Cuo was the most promising person to become the Lord of the Stars in the future.
The master of the palace explored the unknown starry sky, but has not returned yet, and the contact with the sect has been temporarily interrupted.
Another palace master was in charge of the Dead Star Sea and could not interfere in the sect's internal affairs. Mo Heng was injured in the battle with the Dry Bones Master and was in seclusion.
In this way, Luo Wanxiang naturally took charge of the sect.
As soon as he returned to the sect, he was treated unfairly. Nie Tian was naturally unhappy, but he quickly recognized the reality. He knew that his current strength was insufficient and that Mo Heng, who was close to him, was in seclusion again. He might only suffer a loss.
"Does the sect's treasure pavilion contain high-level spiritual beasts or bones of foreign races?" Nie Tian asked.
"Yes, there are quite a few." Wei Lai nodded.
"The merit points in my hand can be redeemed, right?" Nie Tian asked again.
"sure."
"Understood."
After a brief exchange, Nie Tian took the Star Token in hand and went to the sect's treasure pavilion. After asking the person in charge, he found the area where the bones of spiritual beasts and aliens were placed.
In the corner of the main hall, there is an independent space with many cabinets.
Above the cabinet, there are storage rings one after another. There is a mark on the front of the storage ring. The corpses of the ancient beast tribe, demons, evil spirits, ghost tribes, and skeleton tribesmen are placed in different storage rings for the disciples to use merit points. exchange.
Many of the bones of the ancient beast tribe can be used to refine artifacts. Ancient beasts with higher blood levels and special attributes can also be used to create psychic treasures.
The heart, flesh and blood of demons and evil beings can also be refined into pills after being refined by the alchemists of Broken Star Ancient Palace.
Eighth-level ancient beasts, as well as monsters and other alien corpses, can be redeemed with only 10,000 merit points.
Nie Tian's Star Token originally had a merit value of 170,000. Adding in the 500,000 obtained in the Tianyin Star Territory, the merit value was 670,000.
The amount of flesh, blood, and essence he currently needed was too much, so he gritted his teeth and took out all the merit points.
When he left the treasure pavilion, there were more than a dozen storage rings in his hand. Each storage ring contained the bones of eighth-level ancient beasts and demons.
In his judgment, apart from behemoths such as ancient beasts, those with the strongest bodies and the most vigorous flesh and spirit are demons and skeleton tribes.
The corpses of the Skeleton Clan conflicted with his life blood, so he abandoned them.
The corpses of ancient beasts and demons were his first choice. Fortunately, the Broken Star Ancient Palace had fought with ancient beasts and alien races for thousands of years, and had accumulated a huge number of corpses of ancient beasts and demons. This allowed him to make the best use of his merit points.
Holding more than a dozen storage rings, he walked out of the Treasure Pavilion and returned to Hongtian Tower.
Because Mo Heng was away, he couldn't find anyone to guide him. The last light card in the mysterious realm clearly sensed the realm barrier and could never be broken. He turned to absorb the flesh and blood bodies of ancient beasts and demons.
The bodies of ancient beasts and demons exchanged for 670,000 merit points were all absorbed by their life in less than three months.
All flesh, flesh, and essence were greedily swallowed up by the cyan blood that entrenched his heart.
When there was no trace of flesh and blood energy left in the storage ring, Nie Tian secretly sensed that the cyan blood energy was still unsatisfied.
—It is still longing for the injection of more flesh and blood!
"When is the end? It's just the accumulation of bloodline from the seventh level to the eighth level. After the death of dozens of eighth-level ancient beasts and monsters, the remaining flesh and blood essence cannot be satisfied?"
"When I reach the eighth level and have a breakthrough in my life bloodline, won't I start looking for the ninth level king?"
"Could it be that there are dozens, or even hundreds, of ninth-level monarchs to successfully break through?"
"The Ancient Beast Clan, as well as the demons, the Nether Clan, and the Evil Clan, how many ninth-level kings are there?"
At this thought, Nie Tian almost jumped up and cursed.
He deeply realized how stringent the conditions required for the advanced stages of life bloodline were.
"All the merit points have been used up, and the corpses of ancient beasts and monsters in exchange are still not enough to satisfy the next dormant transformation of the life bloodline. The breakthrough to the mysterious realm has been stuck. After Elder Mo Heng retreated, in a short time , I can’t find an opportunity to break through quickly.”
"My cultivation path, at this moment, seems to have begun to stagnate."
For the first time in his life, Nie Tian's cultivation path was stagnant.
"Either, seek opportunities to raise your realm to the spiritual realm, continue to condense spiritual elixirs, and temper human spiritual power. Or, obtain more ancient beasts and alien corpses to make the life blood dormant again. Only the life blood is dormant, and the new Only with the flesh and blood essence can we cooperate with the power of vegetation to continue condensing the Heavenly Wood Rebirth Technique."
In desperation, Nie Tian would be forced to leave the seclusion if he didn't.
"In the Tianmang Star Region and Yuantian Star Region, the major sects spent a lot of money to help me raise spiritual beast meat. Fang Yuan also gave me a lot of alien corpses. I can't be shameless and continue to ask for them. Go down."
"It seems that I can only do tasks for the sect, accumulate more merit points, and exchange them with the sect."
Thinking like this, he ran away from Hongtian Tower and went to find Wei Lai.
"You want to work for the sect?" Wei Lai was stunned, "Now the sect's mission is to eradicate the forbidden sects that practice evil arts, as well as the battle in the Death Star Sea, and the interception of alien races in several star regions. Seven The Sons of the Great Star, except Fang Yuan and Sikong Cuo, are all busy with these matters, and all the elders have also taken action."
"You and your subordinates' combat capabilities are not outstanding yet. I checked and found that there is not a single task that you can complete alone."
As soon as these words came out, Nie Tian's face became a little embarrassed, "My subordinate Jing Feiyang has entered the middle stage of the Holy Realm. He is not qualified to take on the task of the sect alone?"
"Nie Tian, it's not that I'm making things difficult for you. In fact, even if Jing Feiyang is in the middle of the Holy Realm, you still don't have enough power in your hands." Wei Lai smiled bitterly, "Beyond the Death Star Sea, there are many elders of the four major sects, sons of gods, and goddesses. There are also palace masters and the like who are still fighting endlessly with the aliens. This is a long-lasting battle. Both us and the aliens have sent the main force. In the middle of the holy realm... it’s really not enough to watch."
"Almost all the other sects that practice forbidden arts have late-stage Saint Realm disciples, and they also have foreign support secretly. If you accept the task alone, you will only cause your subordinates to die prematurely before they have grown up."
"I'm doing it for your own good, so even though I knew you were in Hongtian Tower, the sect didn't let you do many tasks."
Nie Tiandao: "I need more merit points!"
"Let me think about it." Wei Lai squinted his eyes and pointed his finger at a crystal ball. There were strands of messages in the crystal ball, and he was flicking them around, as if he was looking for something.
After a long while, Wei Lai's eyes lit up and he laughed, "Yes!"
"What?" Nie Tian asked anxiously.
"You go to the Qianyuan Star Territory. There are several realm gates there that connect foreign races. You and the Five Elements Sect will do this task together."
