Xu Sanhu, the ruler of Xinghui City, is famous for his unfathomable cultivation and shrewd skills.
He is not only a politician, but also a practitioner with a strong interest in the power of the stars.
Luo Chen and the man in black learned that Xu Sanhu had been secretly collecting information about the power of stars, and had already heard about the existence of Star Armor.
In order to explore Xu Sanhu's true intentions, Luo Chen and the man in black decided to sneak into the city lord's mansion.
They used the cover of night to avoid numerous guards, and finally arrived at the library of the city lord's palace.
Here, they found some precious ancient books about the power of stars, including descriptions of Star Armor and Star Heart.
In a yellowed ancient book, Luo Chen discovered a shocking record: "The heart of the stars is the soul of the powerful stars, and contains the ultimate secret of the power of the stars."
"Those who get it can control the stars and reverse the world."
These words made Luo Chen and the man in black realize that the value of the Star Heart was far beyond their imagination.
They decided to act more cautiously.
Luo Chen began to try to combine the power of the Star Heart with the Star Armor in order to reach a higher level of cultivation.
With the help of the Star Heart, Luo Chen's cultivation speed increased by leaps and bounds, and the Star Armor gradually showed more incredible abilities.
However, the good times did not last long, and the city lord Xu Sanhu seemed to have noticed something.
He began to secretly send people to investigate the abnormal situation in the city, and the actions of Luo Chen and the men in black became increasingly difficult.
In order not to attract Xu Sanhu's attention, they had to temporarily stop their research on the Heart of the Stars.
In Xinghui City.
In a secret little courtyard.
At this time, Luo Chen was sitting silently under a stone pavilion, drinking hot tea.
"The power of the stars is really mysterious and unpredictable, and it is also full of dangers!"
"The city lord, the mysterious forces, and others all covet the power of the stars."
“I don’t know if my choice was right or wrong.”
"As a result, I have become the center of the whirlpool."
Luochen's thoughts drifted away, and he recalled his original intention of embarking on this path, which was to pursue power and protect everything he cherished.
However, as his power grew, he found himself involved in a larger whirlpool, an ancient secret about the power of the stars, a secret that might change the entire Star City and even the wider world.
The man in black walked into the stone pavilion, saw Luo Chen's thoughtful look, and said softly: "Luo Chen, you don't have to worry too much, things may not be as pessimistic as you think."
Luochen raised his head, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes: "I know, but I always wonder if all this is worth it."
The man in black sat down and said slowly: "The pursuit of the power of the stars has never been an easy road, but you have come here and there is no turning back."
"The secret of the Star Heart is not only about power, but also about balance."
"If we can master it, we may be able to prevent those greedy people from using the power of the stars to do evil."
Luo Chen nodded, he knew that the man in black was telling the truth.
He took a deep breath, stood up, and said with firm eyes: "So, what should we do next?"
The man in black said calmly: "Improve your strength first, only strength is the key to everything"
The man in black took out an ancient scroll from his arms and handed it to Luo Chen: "This is the secret book about the power of the stars that I recently collected. It contains some advanced cultivation methods, which may help you improve faster. Strength.”
Luo Chen took the scroll and felt the ancient aura contained in it. He unfolded it carefully and saw that it was densely written with star symbols and cultivation formulas.
He began to study it carefully, and every time he understood a paragraph, he felt that the power of the stars in his body became more active.
At the same time, the men in black began to set up various defensive and concealment formations in the small courtyard to ensure that their practice would not be disturbed by the outside world.
Under the protection of the magic circle, Luo Chen began to try to practice the methods on the scroll.
Time flies by like a flash, and Luo Chen's cultivation level is also improving by leaps and bounds.
He began to be able to perceive distant stars, and even feel the fluctuations in the power of the stars during the day.
His star armor also became stronger and brighter as his cultivation level improved.
However, just as Luochen was immersed in the joy of cultivation, the forces of the city lord Xu Sanhu began to conduct a more rigorous investigation into the abnormal conditions in the city.
They even began to conduct secret surveillance on some suspicious characters, and Luochen and the man in black became one of their targets.
Late one night, Luo Chen and the man in black were practicing in the small courtyard when they suddenly felt a powerful aura approaching.
They quickly put away all traces of their practice and hid them.
Soon, a group of practitioners dressed in black appeared outside the small courtyard. They were searching around, seemingly looking for something.
"It seems our whereabouts have been exposed."
The man in black whispered, a trace of worry flashing in his eyes.
Luo Chen clenched his fists, knowing that now was not the time to back down: "We can't let them discover the secrets of Star Heart and Star Armor."
The two decided to leave the courtyard temporarily and find a new hiding place.
Under the cover of night, they quietly left and headed to a secret cave outside Xinghui City.
This cave was discovered by the man in black in his early years. The cave is full of complex mechanisms and magic circles, which are enough to resist external invasion.
In the cave, Luo Chen continued to practice, while the man in black began to study how to fight against the power of the city lord Xu Sanhu.
They know that if they want to protect the Star Heart and Star Armor, they must have enough power.
The results of Luo Chen's training in the cave gradually emerged. His star armor can now change its shape at will, and can even turn into a stream of light that surrounds him, forming a powerful defensive barrier.
His attack methods have also become more diverse, and he can use the power of the stars to perform powerful moves.
At the same time, the man in black also discovered some ancient mechanism drawings in the cave. He began to try to repair and activate the mechanisms in the cave to enhance their defense capabilities.
While they were working hard to improve their strength, the city lord Xu Sanhu was also planning something secretly.
He used various means to try to find the whereabouts of Luochen and the man in black.
Xu Sanhu knew that the secrets of Star Heart and Star Armor were very important to him, and he must not let these treasures fall into the hands of others.
By chance, Xu Sanhu learned the location of the cave where Luochen and the man in black were hiding.
He immediately summoned a group of elite practitioners and prepared to launch a raid on the cave.
Luo Chen and the man in black knew nothing about this, they were still concentrating on practicing in the cave.
Until late one night, when they were practicing, they suddenly felt a violent vibration outside the cave.
"No, someone is coming!"
The man in black's expression changed and he stood up quickly.
Luo Chen also stood up, his star armor covering his whole body in an instant, shining with dazzling light.
The two people quickly rushed out of the cave and saw that a group of black-clothed practitioners had surrounded the cave.
"Hand over the Heart of the Stars and the Armor of the Stars, and I will spare your life!"
The leading practitioner in black said coldly.
Luo Chen and the man in black looked at each other, knowing that this battle was inevitable.
Luo Chen took a deep breath, and the power of the stars on the star armor began to boil, and he was ready to fight.
The battle was about to break out. Luo Chen and the man in black relied on the power of Star Armor and Star Heart to start a fierce battle with Xu Sanhu's practitioners.
The power of the stars and the power of the practitioners intertwined in the night sky, bursting out with dazzling light. Luo Chen waved the star armor in his hand, and every attack carried the coercion of the power of the stars, forcing his opponent back.
The man in black used the mechanism in the cave to cleverly contain the opponent's offensive.
However, Xu Sanhu's side had a large number of people, and they gradually gained the upper hand.
Luochen and the man in black began to feel pressure, and they knew they had to end the battle as soon as possible.
At this moment, Luo Chen suddenly felt the heart of the stars in his body begin to beat violently, and an unprecedented force poured into his body.
He shouted loudly, and the star armor burst out with bright light, forming a huge star beam, knocking back all the surrounding practitioners.
Xu Sanhu and others were shocked by this sudden force and retreated one after another.
Luochen and the man in black seized the opportunity, quickly broke through the siege and disappeared into the night.
After the battle, Luochen and the man in black looked for a new hiding place again.
This is the case in the world of immortality.
Many times, many things are unsatisfactory.
The weak eat the strong, and the fittest survive. This is also the eternal law of this world.
For example, Luochen's current strength is not as strong as that of the City Lord's Mansion.
All he could do was run away like this.
"How was it?"
"Are you okay?"
Luo Chen leaned against a cold stone wall, panting. His star armor was full of cracks, but it still emitted a faint light.
The man in black stood beside him, scanning the surroundings with vigilant eyes to ensure that no pursuers were following him.
"I'm fine, I just consumed too much."
Luochen's voice was a little hoarse, but his eyes showed determination.
The man in black nodded, took out a pill from his arms and handed it to Luo Chen: "This is a pill to restore strength. Take it first."
Luo Chen took the elixir and swallowed it without hesitation.
After the elixir entered his stomach, a warm current quickly spread in his body, and his physical strength and star power began to slowly recover.
"What do we do next?"
Luo Chen asked, with a hint of confusion in his eyes.
The man in black pondered for a moment, and then said: "We need to find a safer place, and at the same time, you also need more training resources to improve your strength."
Luo Chen nodded, he knew that the man in black was telling the truth.
In this world of the jungle, if you don't have enough strength, you can only be slaughtered by others.
The two decided to go to a place called "Unfallen Valley".
The Unfallen Valley is located on the edge of Xinghui City, a corner forgotten by many immortal cultivators.
Although there are many dangers there, there are also many unknown cultivation resources hidden there.
After several days of trekking, Luo Chen and the man in black finally arrived at Buluo Valley.
The valley is dark and gloomy, surrounded by a light mist, which makes people feel inexplicably depressed.
"Isn't there a valley here?" Luo Chen looked around, frowning.
"Yes, although it is dangerous here, it is exactly what we need." The man in black replied.
They began to explore the valley, looking for training resources.
There are many strange plants growing in the Valley of Unfall, some of which have extremely high medicinal value.
Luochen and the men in black carefully picked these plants, while also being wary of various monsters in the valley.
During a collection process, Luochen accidentally discovered a hidden cave.
The cave is full of ancient formations, and it was obviously a place where an expert once lived in seclusion to practice.
"There might be something we need here."
Luochen said excitedly.
The man in black nodded, and the two of them cautiously entered the cave.
The interior space of the cave is not large, but it is very delicately decorated.
A white skeleton exuding bursts of white light was placed on the side of the cave.
Next to the bones, there are several simple magic weapons and some yellowed scrolls.
Luo Chen and the man in black approached cautiously, for fear of triggering some trap.
"These magic weapons look old, but they still seem to contain powerful power."
Luo Chen whispered, his eyes lingering on these magic weapons.
The man in black nodded. He picked up a scroll and unfolded it gently. There were some ancient texts densely written on it.
"This is an article on spiritual cultivation. If I guess correctly, this should be the cultivation experience left by that master."
Hearing this, Luo Chen's eyes flashed with excitement.
What they need most now is a way to improve their strength.
He walked up to the bones, bowed respectfully, and then began to look around carefully.
On the other side of the bones, Luo Chen found a small stone platform with an exquisite jade box placed on it.
He carefully opened the jade box, and inside lay a pill that emitted a faint blue light.
"This is..."
Luo Chen was shocked. He could feel that this pill contained extremely pure star power.
The man in black also noticed this pill. He walked over, observed it carefully and said, "This should be a star pill. After taking it, it can greatly improve the cultivation of star power."
< br>
Luo Chen nodded, he understood what this star pill meant to them. Without hesitation, he carefully put away the Star Pill and prepared to take it in a safe place.
In the cave, they also found some precious medicinal materials and several ancient books on formations.
These discoveries undoubtedly provided huge help to their cultivation path.
In the Valley of Immortality, Luo Chen and the man in black started a new life of cultivation.
They used the resources in the cave to practice day and night, and their strength gradually improved.
However, the good times did not last long, and the city lord Xu Sanhu did not give up the pursuit of them.
The practitioners he sent wandered around the Valley of the Fallen, trying to find their traces.
While Luo Chen was practicing in the cave, he suddenly felt a powerful aura approaching.
He quickly stood up and rushed out of the cave together with the man in black.
Not far away, Xu Sanhu and a group of practitioners were slowly walking towards them.
Xu Sanhu had a cold smile on his face. It was obvious that he was well prepared this time. (End of chapter)
