Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill

Of course, Wang Sheng didn't care how Yue wanted to cultivate.

"Yue, do you feel any changes in the starry sky?"

Yue looked up at the sky, "Changes? Mr. Wang Sheng, the stars are always changing... Some stars may disappear one day."

Wang Sheng knew he wouldn't get much more out of Yue, but he still gave him a reminder.

"The starry sky will change again, Yue I know you want to create a new path of cultivation, this might be an opportunity."

Yue wanted to establish a new path based on spiritual cultivation.

It was highly difficult, yet when the rules were revealed, it might be an opportunity. For the person who had followed him for so long, he would naturally provide guidance if there was a chance.

Yue's eyes narrowed, "Thank you for your guidance, sir."

It wasn't long before Yue left, wanting to go back and prepare.

"It looks like I need to inform Huangtian about the risk to the weak."

The weak were naturally just ordinary people.

Zhongzhou was okay, but in other places, the proportion of ordinary people was significant.

Soon after, Huangtian arrived at Qingshan Village.

He was nervous, as the occasions where his mentor sought him out were rare.

"Master!"

"Go ahead, no need to be nervous, I have called you this time to inform you of some matters."

"May I ask what matters require the master's personal notification?"

"I've received a message..." Wang Sheng repeated the news of the starry sky's disturbance.

Huangtian: !!!

He grew more anxious. If things went poorly, all efforts of the past twenty years in Datong could be ruined.

However, he quickly calmed down upon Wang Sheng's words.

"This is an issue facing the entire starry sky; however, the risk is for the weak. Datong as a whole should not be affected. Still, you must prepare mentally. Ordinary people and weaker martial artists may suffer losses. In Zhongzhou, I can help if there's a large-scale crisis, but in other places, you're on your own. The disturbance in the starry sky is not something I can stop."

Huangtian felt a heaviness in his heart but still nodded, "I understand, master. I need to go back and prepare, so I will not stay any longer!"

"Go then!"

Wang Sheng knew that Huangtian couldn't stay after hearing the news.

Huangtian left with a heavy heart.

Datong was too large; the preparations needed were vast, and losses were almost inevitable.

Wang Sheng was powerless to do anything else.

After Huangtian left, he looked at the progress of his skills. The disturbance in the starry sky and the revealing of rules were good opportunities to increase progress.

Since the Inner Core had broken through six times, cultivation could now drive the improvement of divine skills and martial techniques.

Thus, skills like Baji Fist and Summon Wind and Rain had seen substantial improvement, gaining a level even without Wang Sheng's active use.

However, aside from Enhancement Talisman, there were no qualitative changes.

The Enhancement Talisman, having broken through once, improved the effect of enhancement for those who used it. Wang Sheng's created Enhancement Talisman could now provide special enhancements, such as increased attack and defense.

And like the Five Elements Sword Formation, which had improved several levels, there was a greater boost to combat strength.

Of course, this was also related to the more advanced refinement of the five Five Elements Flying Swords.

As for knowledge-based skills, other than a few he frequently used, there wasn't much improvement.

Then there were the skills related to the physical body and Qi-Blood, which had started to improve again with the use of the Deceiving Heaven Skill.

"I wonder how much this time will allow me to improve!"

Huangtian's mood was similar, but his was more torn.

"Since it's inevitable, I should try to gain as many benefits as possible."

And in even more distant places.

Kui Tian Monarch's world.

"Kui Tian Monarch, the message has been received. The next starry sky disturbance is coming, and they've instructed me to notify you to prepare. Perhaps you can advance further, and monitoring can be paused for now."

"No matter, since I lost surveillance of the most important world, my stress has lessened... Also, is the message true? Has mother sensed it?" Kui Tian Monarch opened his eyes and asked.

"It's a message from mother, there's no mistake."

"Good, it's fortunate we have mother."

"Yes, indeed. Not every world births a mother. With her, we have many advantages in this competition," the informant said with pride.

"Of course!" Kui Tian Monarch did not deny, "We need to give back to mother."

"You needn't say more, just prepare well. If any of our companions advance further, we can give back even better."

Kui Tian Monarch said nothing more; he was very aware of this.

Now it was his turn to prepare.

But he also thought about that world that "frustrated" me.

"With the starry sky disturbance, I hope you are affected. The disturbance signifies the shortening of time again. I can hardly wait!"

...

"Blood Locust King," also known as Seven Emotions Monarch's world.

"The starry sky is shaking again. That world should also feel the impact. It seems it's time to get ready. Maybe I can take a share of the spoils."

Ever since he returned, he couldn't stop thinking about that world.

Besides these two worlds, other powerful worlds with deep heritage also anticipated the upcoming changes.

"The starry sky is beginning its offering; we must secure enough advantages."

"Whether we can safely overcome upcoming crises depends on this time!"

In the 23rd year of the new era, March.

Wang Sheng was cultivating when he once again sensed the presence of the will of the starry sky.

[It's here]

He instantly understood what this meant.

"I'm heading to the starry sky, no problem, right?"

[No, your strength is sufficient. In fact, I suggest you go to the starry sky, just don't stray too far.]

"Don't worry!"

Wang Sheng briefly notified others and then shot straight up into the sky, heading towards the stars.

Meanwhile, because of the energy tide gathered by the last starry disturbance, it began to surge again, like a towering wave.

The giant waves slapped against the starry sky and then seemed to traverse countless spaces, turning into waves large and small, crashing towards various planets.

Naturally, this included the planet where Wang Sheng resided...

(I don't know why, but I feel a bit hollow. Still, writing is more fun. Future chapters will be ten-thousand-word ones; the timing is uncertain unless something comes up. Otherwise, I will keep updating with ten-thousand-word chapters until I burn out. Oh, and please vote for monthly tickets.)
