Chapter 59: Stellar Transposition

Having woken up, Wen looked at the system interface again.

Host: Su Wen

Emotional Value: 22,500 points

Level: 13

Cultivation: Star Rank 8th Grade

Cultivation Technique: Heaven & Earth Great Solar Sutra

Battle Techniques: Jadebreak Fist (LV6), Layered Wave Saber (LV6)

In the past few days, Su Wen had leveled up twice and obtained over twenty thousand Emotional Value points.

In recent days, the biggest incident in the capital was Su Wen and Xue Meng competing in wealth.

It was even more widely discussed amongst the commoners, even though it served as nothing more than idle gossip.

However, there were still some people who were envious and jealous of Su Wen.

Following that, after Xue Meng was exiled and Su Wen raided, and many people gloated over his misfortune.

This also earned Su Wen a lot of Emotional Value points.

However, Su Wen was not in a hurry to use it. Instead, he took out the manual for Stellar Transposition.

[Ding-dong. Heaven Rank secret manual detected. Do you want to learn it? The System can help you learn it immediately by using 5,000 Emotional Value points. No Emotional Value points deducted if Host masters it on his own.]

Although the system’s help was much more expensive compared to self learning, Su Wen still made the decision immediately.

“I’ll use the System assist.”

Why? Cultivating secret manuals wasn’t that easy, especially such profound secret manuals. Some words might even have multiple meanings. One’s understanding depended on the their own cultivation realm.

The system’s cultivation comprehension and learning would not have any errors. On the other hand, if one were to attempt to comprehend it by themselves, they might misunderstand the meaning of certain words and cause themselves to take a detour.

[Ding-dong. The host has learned Heaven Rank Movement Technique — Stellar Transposition. Current Level: LV1.]

In an instant, a large amount of information surged into Su Wen’s mind. It took him a while to properly digest and sort of the information.

This Heaven Rank movement technique was really not that easy to cultivate, even at LV1, there were already many details involved.

As for the specialties of this movement technique, it focused on allowing the practitioner to be extremely agile. Most importantly, this movement technique was divided into the Star positions and Moon positions.

Apart from moving at a normal speed, one could construct star points and moon points in one’s body, corresponding to the constellations of the stars as well as the moon cycles.

After the construction of the star point was completed, one could store true energy in the star point. Every time one activated the movement technique and stepped onto the corresponding Star point, they could trigger the resonance of said star and receive a slight buff.

The Star point buffs consisted of all kinds of strange and varied effects, thus the effect of every person who practiced this cultivation technique might be completely different.

It completely exceeded Su Wen’s understanding of ordinary battle techniques!

[Ding-dong. The host’s current level of Stellar Transposition is LV1. You can condense a total of five Star points. Do you want to condense them? For each Star that the System assists in condensing, 1,000 Emotional Value points are needed. The host may also choose to condense them by himself without cost.]

“Have the System assist in condensing one star first!”

Su Wen wanted to see how the Star point actually worked in reality.

In an instant, Su Wen discovered that a map full of stars had appeared in front of him, and countless stars were shimmering on it.

[Host, please choose the corresponding position to condense a Star point. For the available special effects of the Star, the Host can view and check them on the side panel.]

Su Wen tapped on one of the particularly bright stars.

It read: [Extreme Yang Star, Unparalleled Firepower.]

Su Wen pondered for a moment before tapping on another star.

[Shadow Star, Illusionary Flash.]

[Atlantis Star, brings forth the power of Yin Water.]

[Cyclone Star, multiplying without end.]

[Heavy Earth Star, brings forth the power of Deep Earth.]

The five options were varied, each representing a different power.

After ruminating over his choices for a moment, Su Wen chose the Extreme Yang Star.

[Ding-dong. The host has chosen the Extreme Yang Star, construction of Star point is proceeding. After stepping into the star position, the temperature of all fire elemental energy will increase by 10%. Duration: 3 breaths.]

[Note: If the host steps into another Extreme Yang Star point, the duration of the Extreme Yang effect will be extended to 6 breaths, and the temperature of the fire elemental energy will increase by 20%.]

Su Wen raised his eyebrows. In other words, these Star points could be repeated!

The explanation given by the System was not written in the manual.

Immediately afterward, Su Wen began to move. As he revolved the basic movement technique of Stellar Transposition, the vital energy within his body converged to form a resonance with the astral energies in the sky.

A distant star at an unknown area far away gradually lit up under Su Wen’s call, transforming into a Star point which corresponded to the movement technique.

A tiny light swirl appeared in Su Wen’s body.

This light swirl was the star point. Every time Su Wen stepped into the corresponding star point, the Extreme Yang Star would echo to it. The True Qi in Su Wen’s body would instantly become hotter!

After constructing the first star point, Su Wen did not continue. He began to attempt to condense his own star point.

However, this time, Su Wen realized that things were not as simple as he thought. There were so many stars in the sky that he could not differentiate the different attributes of each star, as well as their effects.

He could only rely on guesswork.

Su Wen eventually selected a star and tried to build a star point from there. However, he realized that this process was even more difficult. Having this technique did not mean that one could build a star point successfully after choosing a star. Instead, one had to try to resonate with said star to proceed.

After trying it out for a while, Su Wen gave up.

However, his eyes flashed with excitement.

For others that practiced this Stellar Transposition technique, they basically had to rely on luck to form their own star points and positions. Even so, this cultivation technique could already be considered one of the top movement techniques in the Heaven Rank.

After all, in a battle, while moving extremely fast, one could also add buffs to oneself. Even if the buffs were not chosen by the cultivators themselves, they were still very powerful and difficult to figure out.

Perhaps one might be evenly matched in a battle just a second ago, but upon stepping into a star position and gaining a buff, the power they released would undergo a change. This could allow them to catch their opponent off guard.

On the other hand, Su Wen, who had the system, could selectively form and optimize his own buff to a certain extent. Looking at it this way, trading only 1,000 Emotional Value points to condense a certain type of Star point was totally worth it.

Especially since there was still the Moon point and positions in the future.

It could even be said that this cultivation technique had turned into a terrifying entity in Su Wen’s hands!

Su Wen couldn’t wait any longer.

He immediately forked out another 4,000 emotional points to condense the other four star points.

Amidst the joy of discovering this technique, a slightly depressing thing happened. Su Wen searched through the star map repeatedly but did not manage find even one more Extreme Yang Star.

But he also knew that this was actually very normal.

Hence, Su Wen chose the next best alternative, star points that gave a similar effect and decided on the type of star position he wanted.

[Cyclone Star. Every time you step into this star position, your True Qi regenerates by 1%. If you step into the same star once again, your True Qi regenerates by 3%.]

Su Wen chose two Cyclone Stars and unlocked the explanation for having a third star point.

“If I step on the same star position for a third time, my True Qi will recover by 10%…”

Obviously, the more similar stars there were, the better the effect.

Now that the two Cyclone Star points were placed in his footwork, Su Wen’s True Qi regeneration speed would be much faster than others even though the effects did not seem to be very strong.

[Herculean Star, after stepping into this star position, the strength of the next attack will be increased by 10%. When stepping onto the same star twice, the attack power will be increased to 20%.]

[Divine Speed Star. After stepping into the star position, your movement speed will increase by 10% for three breaths. Stepping onto the same star twice increases your speed to 20%.]

(TL Note: In case anyone gets confused, it’s something like having a huge map with many star points. Each star point is different in that it correlates to different types of stars, hence the possibility of having varied skills. What the system gives him is that for each star point he taps on, he can see what sort of stars the point is connected to and choose the best option for himself from there.)
