"Don’t ask, just follow me."
Xu Jin took out the Star-picking Order, and in front of them, light and shadow transformed, and a towering Star Tower shot up into the clouds, suddenly appearing in front of everyone.
This was the physical form of the Star-picking Tower’s Yan State Branch Building in Yan State.
Seeing the real form of the Star-picking Tower’s Yan State Branch Building appear, one of the subordinates’ face changed, "Hall Master, are we leaving the main part of Yan State? If we all leave, the Branch Hall might become vulnerable."
"Vulnerable? Who would dare attack my Branch Hall?
Besides, we’ll be back soon," Xu Jin glanced at this subordinate with displeasure.
There was no choice, since Zhou Qingzhu had been dispatched to atone for his crimes on the Galaxy Battlefield after the last incident, and Xu Jin was worried about Qi Shanye fishing, he had to make do with these people.
Xu Jin had already made up his mind; if this guy dared to utter another word of nonsense, after this incident was over, he would send him straight to the Galaxy Battlefield.
A disobedient subordinate is not a good one; they should be replaced sooner.
"This is also true, please instruct us, Hall Master." Intimidated by Xu Jin’s glare, this Fifth Tier Gathering Battle Realm expert immediately conceded.
After all, Xu Jin was someone bold enough to slam his hand on the table with the Star Master, not someone he could afford to provoke.
"Send a signal to the Branch Hall to enter alert status, activate the Hall Guardian Array to fifty percent." Nevertheless, Xu Jin still made the arrangements, better safe than sorry.
The next instant, Xu Jin’s Star-picking Order released a ring of soft light, instantly enveloping his four subordinates, then Xu Jin with the four of them, stepped directly into the Star-picking Tower.
After paying a significant amount of Starlight, the five of them vanished within the interior of the Star-picking Tower’s Yan State Branch Building.
At the same moment, a figure emerged from the distance, watching the Star-picking Tower’s Yan State Branch Building slowly vanish into the void, casually sending off a Starlight Transmission.
"Xu Jin has entered the Star-picking Tower’s Yan State Branch Building and departed."
Ten breaths later, inside the Star-picking Tower’s Pill Dawn County Branch Building, Xu Jin appeared out of nowhere with his four men, then stepped out of the Pill Dawn County Branch Building.
The Dean of Tianyang Star Hall’s Pill Dawn Branch had been waiting.
He too was one of Xu Jin’s trusted people.
"Is everything arranged properly?"
"Arranged. We’ve found a hideout belonging to a Blood God Sect follower, and have already sent people to sweep through it."
The next instant, Xu Jin soared into the sky, in a blink stepping on the Starlight and charged towards the location where Qi Shanye had previously established the Star Tower.
In the mountains, Qi Shanye watched the Star Tower still absorbing Star Power, feeling incredibly anxious.
The next moment, all the Starlight inside and outside of the Star Tower was withdrawn, and the Star Power Vortex disappeared.
The establishment of the Tower was complete.
This Lingji Star Hall’s Dachen Branch Building that had followed him for many years had once again successfully started up.
At the same time, another Starlight Transmission was received. After just one glance at its contents, Qi Shanye slightly startled.
"It seems the autumn exam in the Dachen Secret Realm didn’t delay him much, not even 100 breaths, this Du Tingyun is not up to the job."
"Just another coward!"
Amidst curses, Qi Shanye rushed into the Branch Building that had been sealed for twenty years, casually pushed open a Light Gate named ’Lingji Star Hall.’
Quickly stepping in, he headed straight for the familiar Scripture Collection Tower.
The Star-picking Tower had one excellent feature, as long as authorization was granted, the information was preserved concurrently.
Even if the Star-picking Tower’s Main Building under Lingji Star Hall had been forced to completely close and isolate itself from the outside world, the Branch Building with the necessary permissions would still hold the relevant information.
Fortuitously, the Branch Building in his hands had this permission.
Qi Shanye hurried into the well-known location of the Scripture Collection Tower, rapidly searching and flipping through documents.
Ten breaths later, Qi Shanye found the document he remembered.
"So that’s how it is, no wonder so few people manage to undergo the Purification nine times and achieve a Leakless Innate Star Body. No wonder. But this kid, perhaps he can actually do it."
Murmuring, Qi Shanye immediately sent the document along with the recorded Secret Technique to Xu Jin using the fastest Starlight Transmission method.
Then like lightning, he leaped out of the Star-picking Branch Tower.
Operating the Mingji Star Pattern, Qi Shanye started to faintly sense several powerful fluctuations of Star Power.
He didn’t have much time left.
In an instant, he activated his Star-picking Order, and the recently started Star-picking Tower began to shrink under his command.
"Hope I’m not too late—sixty breaths!" Qi Shanye, sensing the increasingly clear presence from afar, silently sighed.
"Mo, it’s time to make a move. Make it a big one, whether I live or die depends on you." Qi Shanye sent a Starlight Transmission.
Outside the Tianyang Star Hall’s Yan State Branch Hall, watching the ascending Starlight defenses of the Yan State Branch Hall, Mo Ji removed the longbow from his back and with a sweep of his large hand, the Starlight blazed up in brilliance.
"Playing it big, if you don’t give me an explanation afterward, don’t think about asking me to make a move again."
While sending a Starlight Transmission, Mo Ji drew the bow fully, one after another, arrows purely condensed of Star Power forming ceaselessly, the entire Big Array starting to emanate blinding Starlight, and as he continued pouring his strength, the brilliance grew even stronger.
The fluctuations of Star Power grew more and more fearsome.
Fourth Tier, Fifth Tier.
As the fluctuation of Star Power rose to the peak of the Fifth Tier, all of a sudden, the guards inside the Tianyang Star Hall’s Yan State Branch Hall noticed the extraordinary and fearsome aura.
The very next moment, a large number of Star Patrol Guards burst out of the Yan State Branch Hall, heading straight for Mo Ji.
"Too late, you grandsons!"
Amidst laughter, Mo Ji released his fingers and nine horrifying arrows of Star Power, with thick trails like meteors, slammed toward the Hall Guardian Array of the Tianyang Star Hall’s Yan State Branch Hall.
