There are many pools in the Xingyue Pool, varying in size. They do not look beautiful on the outside. They are just some puddles. Under the erosion of the power of the stars, not even a weed can be seen, and no living thing can be seen. Survive here.
The body meridians of older monsters cannot withstand the ravages of the power of the stars. The people who can enter Xingyue Pool are all little monsters. Most of them are familiar with each other. They are either relatives of the shopkeeper of this house or the young master and lady of that shopkeeper. The conditions are not bad. All of them were dressed in a decent manner, but in a nondescript manner. They use this to separate themselves from other monsters and willingly suffer. As for the snake spirit, he was wearing a long robe, and his movements were all imitating those of humans. In order to maintain his posture and not stain his clothes, he kept his upper body erect and moved with only a small tail. It looked very tiring.
Those little monsters in simple clothes looked more pleasing to the eye, but they were pointed at by the young masters and ladies. Some little monsters who have just learned to stand are not used to wearing clothes yet, and they will even be laughed at. It is not known whether they were born with two legs on the ground.
The identities of these little monsters with no background are very mixed, and they all use various methods to obtain opportunities. To the guards, more than half of them are new faces like the little fox, which is not surprising.
Next to the little fox was a little rabbit that had just learned to stand. It was very cute, but it was laughed at and did not dare to resist. It just lowered its head and said nothing. It seemed that it was also cautious in daily life. Xiaohu looked unhappy, but she couldn't protect herself at this time. The killer was always in her throat, and she might be watching from the sidelines. She really couldn't meddle in other people's business.
The elite talents with background among the monsters go to choose their favorite star pool according to their status. The remaining monsters, including Xiaohu, can only choose from the remaining star pools.
The first person to choose a place was Bao Ce's son Baoping. He chose the highest pool as a place for training. Outsiders thought that as the leader of the Bao family, he would naturally go to a high place. Who knew that this was the first place to break away from the Moon Pond and could be used for cultivation very early. By the time Damian Lake starts practicing, the power of the stars here has long been absorbed.
The Bao family is the well-deserved first family in the Damian Lake Market. They have chosen this place as a training place for decades. Who would have thought that this was just a pretense to avoid being discovered.
Xiaohu didn't care about this. Her only goal was the Moon Pool. Only the power of the stars that was strong enough could change the meridians. If the power was not enough, it would just be an ordinary body tempering. Now that no one is coming to disrupt the situation, the faster the cultivation speed, the better.
At this time, the killer still did not appear, and Xiaohu felt a little relieved.
Amidst the exclamations, the little fox crossed the edge of the moon pool and sank to the bottom.
This moon pool seems to be a little different from what was imagined. There is no special power in the pool. Xiaohu was already prepared for the meridians of his body to be impacted by the power of the stars.
She emerged from the water and looked up at the nearby monsters. Some of them had already entered the state of cultivation, with painful expressions on their faces. Some of them had not yet started, meditating quietly by the pool to adjust their state. It seemed that Xingyue Pool no problem.
Are there any conditions? There are basically no monsters coming to the Moon Pond this time, which shows that ordinary monsters are consciously unable to gain benefits in the Moon Pond. I can't feel the power of the stars here. Is it a test of understanding or perception?
Xiaohu was still very confident in her talent. She relaxed her mind and tried her best to communicate with the energy hidden in the pool.
Unfortunately, all the power of the stars here was sucked up by the wild boar spirit Zhuji. During the battle at Demon King Mountain, shortly after the full moon night, Xingyue Pool still looked like a whole lake, with only the small puddle at the top showing its shape, where Baoping was practicing at that time. Later, the water level dropped, and part of the star pool separated from the moon pool. There was still some star power mixed in the water, but it was already very thin. As for the star power in the moon pool, it was gone after Zhu Ji came out.
The little fox doesn't care about the outside world, and concentrates on practicing, hoping to activate the power of the stars and enter a state of forgetfulness of things and myself.
Time passed, and only more than half an hour passed. The commotion around them gradually became louder and louder. Xiaohu and Baoping in the distance had to quit practicing.
Baoping reacted quickly and quickly got out of the pool. He often comes here to practice, but something unexpected happened this month and he came less often. There was a lot of star power left in the pool, and he began to practice selflessly.
At this time, seeing something unexpected happen in Xingyue Pond, in order not to attract attention, he quickly came out and mingled with the demon group.
Xiaohu also felt the strange atmosphere, left the pool, and steamed his clothes with infuriating energy.
Guards gathered in the distance surrounded the place, leaving only one road. Bao Ce and Ma Shi followed this road to Xingyue Pond surrounded by guards.
When the monsters saw Bao Ce coming, they complained quickly.
"Uncle Leopard, why is the power of the stars gone?"
"Yes, yes, at first I thought it was a little easy to absorb the power of the stars this time. It turned out that the power of the stars was too little."
"..."
Bao Ce looked surprised, and hurriedly came to the side of the star pool and put his hand into the water. Sure enough, there was no star power at all. His shocked expression seemed to be that he had just discovered it. He tried several positions, but nothing happened. As a result, before finally arriving at the Moon Pond, there was still no power of stars.
"There is no star power here. Who did it?"
When Bao Ce asked this question, the first reaction of the monsters present was that someone was causing trouble, and they all looked at the person they suspected.
Bao Ce heard some monsters talking about each other, followed their gazes, and spotted Xiaohu. He already knew it, pointed at the Moon Pond and asked, "Who is practicing in this pond?"
In front of everyone, Xiaohu couldn't deny it, so he could only admit it.
Bao Ce was convinced, and he turned his attention to Ma Shi. This was the scapegoat he had chosen long ago, and he just used it here.
Ma Shi was completely unaware of his own danger. He recognized Xiaohu at a glance and stared at Xiaohu with a fierce look on his face. Bao Ce saw all these reactions.
Bao Ce came to Ma Shi and asked, "Master Ma, is this the person the inspector is looking for?"
When Ma Shi saw Bao Ce asking, he quickly calmed down his emotions and smiled sarcastically, "Exactly, exactly."
Even a fool could see what Ma Shi was thinking. This was not looking for someone, it was clearly an attempt to kill someone. Bao Ce cursed in his heart, but then he thought, this girl must have mastered some secret, or else she has a special status.
Regardless of whether the person named Ma is arresting people for his master or killing people for his master, this girl must know some unknown secrets. It is better to arrest this girl first and slowly find out the secret later.
Then I'm sorry, Mr. Ma. I originally wanted this girl to be buried with you, but now you can die on your own.
Bao Ce suddenly reached forward and grabbed Xiaohu's wrist. Xiaohu was restrained before he had time to react.
"You are a human, not a monster!" Bao Ce roared, as if he knew something terrible.
The whole place was in an uproar.
"Who asked you to disturb Xingyue Pool? Where did you receive the power of the stars? Tell me quickly!"
Upon hearing this, all the monsters glared angrily, as if they wanted to tear the little fox into pieces and destroy other people's chances of promotion. This was a deadly feud.
Bao Ce turned to look at Ma Shi, "Master Ma, are you looking for her to protect her? Is she working for your Tianfu?"
Ma Shi repeatedly denied, "She has nothing to do with me. If you want to kill her, just kill her."
The little fox smiled bitterly. The killer was masked that day and could only vaguely remember his figure. Now that he looked carefully, he realized that Master Ma was the killer who escaped that day. It turned out that the killer had been waiting here, and even the power of the stars had been released in advance. Trapping her, it seems difficult to escape today.
"What Tianfu did is really chilling. Do you really think I don't dare to kill you?" Bao Ce's voice became colder, and Ma Shi suddenly felt bad.
"What do you mean, Master Leopard? The power of the stars is of no use to me. What should I do with that kind of thing?"
Bao Ce sneered, "Does that mean you are hurting others without benefiting yourself? Are you here specifically to destroy us?"
Before Ma Shi could answer, he was pushed out by Bao Ce and fell in front of the monsters. The powerful Qi blocked Ma Shi's chest, making him speechless.
Baoping took the opportunity to step forward and kick him.
Most of the little monsters here are full of blood. If one makes a move, the others will immediately follow, beating Ma Shi to death with punches and kicks.
When it was Xiaohu's turn, Bao Ce became gentle, "You just obeyed the order, I won't make it difficult for you. As long as you take out the magic weapon that collects the power of the stars, I will let you live."
Where does Xiaohu have any magic weapon? She didn't answer, but secretly observed the surrounding environment and thought of a way to escape.
But after the other monsters saw the blood, they didn't want to let the little fox go so easily, and the situation got out of control.
…
Six people suddenly appeared in the forest. They were all representatives of various forces in the Northern Wilderness and masters of the Moon Watching Realm. However, most of them looked sad and weathered. It seemed that the bitter cold of the Northern Wilderness was not a good place to retire.
The leader was a short, fat middle-aged man, who was the guard of Beihuang Hou Gui Sheng. As the initiator of this operation, Beihuanghou invited these experts to come here.
Yao Shipo said suddenly: "Where is the Marquis? Guisheng, don't you have to protect the Marquis?"
Gui Sheng laughed and said in a cheerful mood: "The Marquis has entered the Dao Pass, and the Moon-Watching Realm is just around the corner. The monsters here are not qualified to threaten the Marquis."
"And with General Tian's capable subordinates guarding us, I think everything will be fine."
A burly man next to Gui Sheng nodded lightly when he heard the words. He had a tangled beard and a strong build, but his clothes were in tatters and rarely taken care of. He was once a general of the Yanzhou border army and a fierce general on the battlefield. It was just that in the power struggle among the upper echelons of Tianfu, he became a scapegoat and fled here with his own soldiers. He was in the prime of his life and his ambitions were still unfulfilled. Perhaps he wanted to leave the Moon-watching Realm in the Northern Wilderness the most.
"On a full moon night, when the sky, rivers, earth and water are connected, the star core under the Star-Moon Pool can be attracted up. We only need to put some restrictions on it to control it. This will be the biggest gain this time." Sheng pointed to the Xingyue Pond at the foot of the mountain.
"It's possible to make magic weapons in this weapon refining place."
One of the middle-aged men asked aloud. His palm was wide, but it was not a palm of flesh, but a palm made of bronze. His face was vicissitudes of life, his brows were furrowed, and he looked like he was bitter and resentful. This person has a considerable background. He was originally from a famous family in Qizhou. The bronze hand on his body is a magic weapon that has been passed down from generation to generation. It is extremely powerful. The family's inheritance is a door-opener. With the magic weapon, it can force out the flaws in the opponent's moves and open up a channel for attack. Therefore, There is a saying about opening a door, but unfortunately the door-opening hand must rely on this bronze hand. The master cannot pass it on until he dies, and the rest of the family will not be that strong. Thousands of years ago, the conquests of various sects in the world were chaotic. The Pimenshou was feared by other sects and aristocratic families. They worked together to kill the young and old in his family. Although he took revenge afterwards, he was disheartened and came to live in seclusion in the Northern Wilderness. By this time, it was spread that There are six generations.
"Chen Tai, I know what you want to do, but the material for bronze hands is rare in the world, so you'd better not have too high expectations."
The pharmacist was advising on the side, not wanting Chen Tai to waste his life for something that was impossible to accomplish. Even the most accomplished people in this world would not live to be two hundred years old.
There was an old man on the side who also came forward to ask. His skin was similar to that of the Medicine Master's wife, and his face was full of grooves. His original face could no longer be seen. He was originally the legitimate son of the Tianfu family. After he failed to seize power, he came here and was known as Lu Laoer.
"Pharmacist, please give me some accurate information. When I was in Tianfu, I only heard about earth fire refining weapons. I have never seen anyone using the power of stars to refine magic weapons. What effect can this star core achieve?"
Everyone looked at the last person. His face was green, but his beard and hair were all white. His temperament was different from most of the miserable masters here. He was very calm and elegant. He is a master of refining, and no one knows his name. The name of refining master is the name passed down from generation to generation in his sect. During the war between good and evil, Tianfu recruited the world's masters in weapon refining to help. His ancestor was searching for materials in the mountains at the time, but did not hear the news. Afterwards, he was wanted by Tianfu and had no choice but to flee to Beihuang.
He looked young, but he was the oldest one present. He spoke strictly and without emotion. His voice was hoarse and unpleasant. I guess he didn't speak often on weekdays.
"You need to look at the size of the star core. It falls from the sky and can activate the power of the stars in the Xingyue Pool. I think it is not too small. It should be stronger than the Earth Fire Refiner."
The weapon refining matter is related to their future plans. If they have a refiner, everyone will be very happy.
