Chapter 1817: Heaven Observation Constellation Manual

"I will handle this matter myself." Upon receiving the news, Kou Chongxue immediately went to the Essence Luxuriant Palace and gathered experts from the leading factions of the Heavenly Field. He led them out to welcome the merchant fleet arriving from the direction of the Spirit Abundance World.

Shang Xia had already obtained more precise information from his Origin Star Avatar. The fleet heading to the Essence Luxuriant Heavenly Field was led by the newly ascended Sage, Cang Xuan, and the Star Ships that made up the fleet came from the Spirit Abundance World and Spirit Observation World.

Of course, after its ascension, the Spirit Abundance World had already been renamed the Essence Abundance World and the Spirit Observation World, having also completed its ascension, was named the Essence Observation World.

Because the Essence Abundance World, Essence Observation World, and Essence Ping World coexisted within the same void, Cang Xuan referred to their collective domain as the Three Essence Heavenly Field after making contact with his Origin Star Avatar.

Since Kou Chongxue was taking the lead on the matter, Shang Xia no longer paid close attention. He simply noted that the merchant fleet from the Three Essence Heavenly Field had been directed to the Azure Cheng World, the second world to be integrated to the Essence Luxuriant Heavenly Field.

The Azure Cheng World had once been part of the Spirit Tip World. Though currently only classified as an Azure World, it had a solid foundation from its Spirit World-level heritage and was rapidly developing. It served as a perfect window for external exchanges on behalf of the Essence Luxuriant Heavenly Field.

In fact, ever since the Essence Luxuriant World completed its ascension and established a Heavenly Field, major sects from both the Essence Luxuriant World and Azure Qing World had been seeking to explore outward and build stable communication channels with other worlds.

While Shang Xia and Kou Chongxue were not directly involved in guiding the initiative, they welcomed it, and even allowed Shang Xia’s Origin Star Avatar to secretly protect outbound exploration fleets.

Though the Essence Luxuriant World had ascended just 5 ot 6 years ago, it had never ceased its exploration and had maintained regular contact with the Essence Hong Heavenly Field, the Essence Xing World, and the Essence Du Heavenly Field.

That was right... They never cut off contact with any of them.

Although Shang Xia had deep grievances and past conflicts with Gu Yi of the Essence Hong World, several powerful factions from the Essence Xing World, and Yan Yu of the Essence Du World, none of them had interfered with normal interactions between the Essence Luxuriant Heavenly Field and the others.

In fact, relatively safe and fixed routes through the void had already been established between them. Merchant fleets of varying sizes regularly traveled between the Essence Luxuriant Heavenly Field and the Heavenly Fields or worlds.

Moreover, the merchant fleets organized by the Essence Luxuriant World, under the leadership of Song Zhen and Zhu Nang, had also increased their trade with the markets in the Chaotic Sea of Stars. The scale of those fleets was growing larger, and the goods exchanged were vast in quantity.

With 2 Sages holding the fort, the Essence Luxuriant Heavenly Field had earned a firm foothold within the Chaotic Sea of Stars. Its reputation was spreading quickly thanks to its merchant fleet, drawing attention from powers across the sea of stars.

While the merchant fleet from the Three Essence Heavenly Field was heading to the Azure Cheng World, and Kou Chongxue was personally hosting Cang Xuan at the Essence Luxuriant Palace, Shang Xia’s Origin Star Avatar entered the Tongyou Elysium after suppressing his cultivation to below the Seven Star Realm.

At the Star Observatory, Yuan Qiuyuan accepted the Origin Star Robe and a rank seven Origin Star Talisman. [1]

"These two items may conceal a rank seven inheritance from the Heaven Observation Sect. If you have the time, study them carefully and see if you can learn anything."

His Origin Star Avatar merely conveyed his instructions.

Yuan Qiuyuan glanced at the robe and asked with some doubt, "I’ve seen this robe more than once, and even worn it myself. I never sensed any secrets within it."

Shang Xia’s Origin Star Avatar smiled in response. "But have you worn it since becoming a rank six Grand Stargazer and becoming a True Immortal? Have you worn it since my true body restored the Origin Star Talisman?”

Yuan Qiuyuan was stunned.

Shooting him a knowing smile, Shang Xia’s Origin Star Avatar departed.

Yuan Qiuyuan mumbled softly to himself before finally draping the Origin Star Robe over his shoulders at the urging of Xin Lu and Yan Ming.

The moment Yuan Qiuyuan attempted to activate the robe using his stargazing arts, the 7 mutated runes were triggered. The resulting formation was completely different from what Shang Xia, Kou Chongxue, and others had seen when they wore it.

The Star Observatory was a place saturated with the power of the stars from beyond the heavens.

Now... Yuan Qiuyuan seemed to act like a magnet, instantly drawing in all the starlight gathered on the platform. His entire body glowed like a star embedded in the heavens, twinkling in the darkness.

Yan Ming and Xin Lu instinctively stepped forward but were halted by Yuan Qiuyuan’s raised hand.

At that moment, in Yuan Qiuyuan’s eyes, the dense starlight around him formed a vast Star Map visible only to him. Clusters of stars gathered to form constellations of various shapes. Upon closer observation, those constellations appeared to correspond faintly to specific acupuncture points across his body.

The starlight surrounding him, seemingly guided by some force, streamed into the acupoints corresponding to each constellation he focused on. As he shifted his attention to different constellations, the light flowed from point to point, ultimately forming a complete circulation cycle.

By the time Yuan Qiuyuan had finished observing the grand Star Map that enveloped him, a message surfaced in his mind.

Heaven Observation Constellation Manual!

Yuan Qiuyuan blinked in surprise. Reflecting on the vast Star Map, he realized his inner qi had already begun circulating through the complex network of acupoints within his body, forming an unfamiliar yet complete cycle.

He had, unknowingly, mastered an entire rank seven art, the core inheritance of the Heaven Observation Sect at that!

When he emerged from his astonishment, he found both Yan Ming and Xin Lu staring at him in disbelief.

"What’s wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?" He vaguely guessed that some phenomenon had occurred while he was receiving the technique, but still asked.

"You’ve been standing on the Star Observatory for 3 whole days!"

"You didn’t notice? Your cultivation skyrocketed. Not only did you become a second tier True Immortal, you’re close to breaking through to the third!”

Yan Ming and Xin Lu took turns explaining what had happened to him.

Startled, Yuan Qiuyuan quickly checked his condition and discovered that he had indeed stepped into the level of Inner Fusion and was close to entering the next level.

To think that all of it came from a single circulation of the Heaven Observation Constellation Manual!

He briefly explained the nature of the technique to the rest, then hurried to a secluded chamber beneath the Star Observatory, specifically prepared for Stargazers in seclusion. There, he began quietly analyzing the subtle changes brought about by the new secret art he practiced along with his newfound strength after his breakthrough.

During his second circulation of the Heaven Observation Constellation Manual, he faintly sensed that somewhere deep in the void, a certain star seemed to share a mysterious connection with him.
