However, Ye Xiwen was never discouraged. He had never relied on his innate talent and root bone. He knew that he had to play to his strengths and avoid his weaknesses. Naturally, he didn't care about this so-called weakness.
There were too many people with strong talent and strong root bones. However, relying on talent and root bones alone couldn't solve all problems.
Admittedly, he had relied a lot on the mysterious space to attain his current strength. However, he had relied more on his own efforts. How could he have attained his current strength if he hadn't gone all-out in his cultivation and escaped from death many times?
Seeing that Ye Xiwen didn't seem to be discouraged, the old man's eyes seemed to have a bit of appreciation.
"That man was much stronger than you. Whether it was root bone or aptitude, he was the best choice. Originally, I was hoping to lure him here, but I didn't expect that you would also come here. You were able to kill him, which was beyond my expectation!" The old man said. His tone seemed to be not very optimistic about Ye Xiwen's chances.
"So, those sword techniques, godly puppets …" Ye Xiwen suddenly realized that this old man had come up with these techniques to attract people. It was no wonder that so many rare treasures and peerless secret techniques had suddenly appeared. Ye Xiwen had felt very strange at first, but now he finally understood that they had originated from this place.
"Yes, it was me!" The old man nodded.
To this ferocious old man who had devoured countless stars, a few precious treasures were nothing at all.
He had used these treasures to attract many geniuses.
"Ye Xiwen, be careful. I don't think this old guy is that simple!" Ye Mo's voice appeared in Ye Xiwen's mind.
At this time, Tianyuan mirror was hidden very tightly. So, this old man had no way to discover Ye Mo's existence.
"It's like fishing. He used those treasures as ears to attract many geniuses. Although I don't know what his purpose is, but you have to be careful!"
Ye Xiwen secretly nodded. In fact, no matter what the old man did, Ye Xiwen would never relax his vigilance. This was a habit that Ye Xiwen had developed over the years.
"You won't be the only one I have chosen. Consider it as an investment. None of you are capable now, but there is still a long time. One thousand years, two thousand years. If one of you can become a genius, then my efforts will not be in vain!" The old man lightly said.
Ye Xiwen suddenly understood that he might want to cast a long line to catch a big fish. There were so many people here. Sooner or later, one of them would become a talent, and one of them would release him in the future. That would be enough.
Moreover, this place would soon become another trial ground for the True Martial University's disciples after these people had left. A large number of the True Martial University's top disciples would come here. So, the scope of their choices would be much larger at that time. And, their chances of success in the future would be much higher.
They might not see results in a short time. However, these people would grow up and become the pillars of the True Martial University sooner or later.
He was thinking very far ahead.
"You're the first one to reach here. Let's say we're fated. I'll give you something!" The old man said. Then, a mass of extremely rich star power appeared in the old man's hand, and instantly flew into Ye Xiwen's body.
This mass of star power fell into Ye Xiwen's body. Ye Xiwen suddenly felt as if he was bathing in a sea of stars. Such rich star power couldn't be absorbed even if he killed a thousand or ten thousand star beasts of legendary seventh or eighth stage.
"Hiss, it's really a big deal. This mass of star power doesn't look like a lot. But, it can't be compared to an ordinary asteroid!" Ye Mo suddenly sucked in a mouthful of cold air.
The power of so many stars was more than enough for Ye Xiwen to condense the Mars Star.
However, Ye Mo's complexion suddenly changed as he said, "Not good! Ye Xiwen, there's a conspiracy here. There's a devil seed inside!"
"This devil seed is a very vicious technique. It's mixed with the star power. You'll be refined along with this devil seed if you refine this star power. Then, you'll become his puppet. You'll be controlled and used by him!" Ye Mo said. "There are many methods to refine a devil seed in the Devil World. The patterns are also very complicated. They have different qualities. However, the essence is the same. You'll become his slave if you refine it. You won't be able to escape. He'll pry into all your secrets, and everything about you will be dominated by him. It'll be useless even if you become more powerful than him one day. After all, he can kill you with a single thought!" Ye Xiwen secretly sucked in a mouthful of cold air.
Ye Xiwen secretly took a breath of cold air. He felt a chill from his feet to his head. How could this Star Beast be so easy to talk to? Although his spirit had transformed into a human form now, he couldn't be regarded as a human. It was still a Star Beast. Would this terrifying creature that treated stars as food be a good thing?
He's so kind to release a large number of treasures and give away a large amount of star power so easily. Although he said that it's for one of these people to become a talent in the future, then he'll be released. However, the so-called human heart is unpredictable. The human heart itself is the most complicated thing.
This Star Beast has lived for many years. He's definitely an old fox. How can he casually give away a large number of benefits without any preparation? He's not an idiot.
"However, this devil seed isn't something that's easy to condense. This devil seed needs to contain a lot of life essence. Condensing one or two will hurt one's origin. Generally, very few people are willing to use a devil seed unless it's someone who values it very much!" Ye Mo said. "It seems that he's very fond of you!"
Ye Xiwen was also a little puzzled. Judging from the conversation just now, the other party should've been dismissive of him. However, he had mixed the devil seed into it.
"What should I do!?" Ye Xiwen secretly asked. Just now, Ye Xiwen and Ye Mo had used their divine senses to communicate at an extremely fast speed. Outside, the old man had already arrived in front of Ye Xiwen and said, "You should quickly refine this star power. Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be able to walk out of here alive!" Ye Xiwen was puzzled.
Ye Xiwen was puzzled. The old man waved his big hand, and a scene appeared in front of Ye Xiwen's eyes. A group of experts was engaged in a deadly fight outside this valley. One of them was led by the Sword Sage. It was unknown what kind of fortuitous encounter the Sword Sage had had during this period of time, but he had unexpectedly stepped into the realm of half-step legendry's great complete realm. With such cultivation and strength, his future prospects would be limitless. In fact, he would be treated as a seed disciple by the university.
However, even though the Sword Sage had stepped into the half-step legendry's great complete realm, he was still in a disadvantageous position. He was fleeing left and right, and had encountered many dangers.
The one who had forced him into a disadvantageous position was Senior Brother Fan of the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall. Ye Xiwen had learned from the memories of the souls of the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall's disciples that he had killed. This Senior Brother Fan was an outstanding top-notch genius among the disciples of the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall. His name was Fan Ming. He was a genius that the Lord of the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall had attached great importance to.
The Lord of the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall was like the Peak Chiefs of the True Martial University. He held a high position and was a high-level figure in the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall.
The Sword Sage had just stepped into the half-step legendry's great complete realm. However, Fan Ming had already reached the peak of half-step legendry's great complete realm. He was only half a step away from entering the semi-sage realm.
However, this half-step was like the difference between heaven and earth. One could be considered as a peerless genius if he could enter the semi-sage realm within five years.
Ye Xiwen suddenly discovered that the Sword Sage was an acquaintance. The Sword Sage was clad in a black robe. His sharp swordsmanship was earth-shattering. His strength was extremely superb. An average person wouldn't be his opponent. However, his opponent was Fan Ming. He was a dreadful existence among the disciples of the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall.
Wasn't that Sword Sage the black-robed powerhouse that Ye Xiwen had seen on the ancient road?
Ye Xiwen hadn't seen that Sword Sage before. He had only heard about him. However, he hadn't expected that the Sword Sage would turn out to be that black-robed powerhouse. One must know that the strength of that black-robed powerhouse was similar to his. However, that black-robed powerhouse had made a breakthrough to the half-step legendry's great complete realm in such a short time!
Ye Xiwen was also struggling on the road of half-step legendry realm. Therefore, he knew that it wasn't easy to advance to the next realm of half-step legendry realm.
Jian Wu Chen had obtained an inheritance. However, he had only reached half-step legendry's eighth stage; that's all. So, what was the origin of this Sword Sage?
Ye Xiwen saw Jian Wu Chen, Mu Ling, and the wolf cub in the Sword Tomb's team. The three of them had a tacit understanding with each other. They were firmly defending the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall's experts' attacks. However, the entire formation of the Sword Tomb was on the verge of collapse.
There were only a few dozen experts left in the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall. So, it wasn't a big deal for the disciples of the True Martial University. However, the situation would be completely different if they were to face the disciples of the Sword Tomb alone. The number of disciples of the Sword Tomb was only a little more than that of the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall. However, the quality of their disciples was much worse than that of the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall.
Moreover, the Sword Sage was completely suppressed by Fan Ming. So, the entire Sword Tomb's team was also completely suppressed.
However, Ye Xiwen didn't have much time to think about it. That old man put away the 'Sky Curtain' and said, "I've seen everything from the moment you came in. I know that you don't get along with those disciples of the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall. And, those disciples of the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall also want to eradicate you and the other disciples of the True Martial University. You'll certainly die once they kill those people and come in. You don't need to count on me to protect you.
That's because those disciples of the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall are also one of my candidates! "" I know that you seem to be practicing a power technique with the power of the stars. You may have the power to fight if you absorb the power of the stars! "The old man's sharp eyes looked at Ye Xiwen.
