Su Yuan felt restless after a long period of stillness.
He left his cave dwelling and began strolling around the peak.
Turning a corner, he saw a Disciple at the fifth level of Refining Qi jumping back and forth on seven stone pillars.
The stone pillars were arranged in the shape of the Big Dipper, and he continuously moved upon them.
At this moment, his rhythm faltered, his foot missed a step, and he fell from mid-air.
Bang!
The mud and sand below were very soft, causing him little harm. He reached up, wiped a handful of mud and sand from his face, spat twice, and then jumped onto the stone pillars again to practice the Seven Stars Flowing Light Step.
Su Yuan watched from the side the entire time.
After a full three hours, the Disciple finally stopped. His face already had several scrapes, and he looked somewhat disheveled.
He let out a breath, then came over to Su Yuan's side.
"Senior Brother, you have such perseverance! You actually watched me practice for three hours!" The Disciple was also quite surprised by Su Yuan's actions.
"Oh, practicing for three hours is much more tiring than me standing here. You are far more persevering," Su Yuan said with a smile.
"Alas, perseverance is useless if one's comprehension is poor. Even with a grand path laid out, one still won't be able to Cultivate successfully!" He sighed as he looked at the seven stone pillars, a hint of loneliness in his expression.
Su Yuan said, "You are learning Elder Su's unique skill, aren't you?"
"Of course. All the Disciples on the peak are learning it now. Many people used to come here, but later they all mastered it and left. Now only I am left here wasting time," the Disciple sighed.
Su Yuan touched his face, confirming he hadn't changed his appearance, then asked curiously, "You don't recognize me?"
"Oh? Is Senior Brother very famous? I transferred from Shujue Peak," he said awkwardly.
Su Yuan looked at the sky and said, "When practicing the Seven Stars Flowing Light Step, you shouldn't just stare at the seven pillars beneath your feet. Look up at the sky!"
The Disciple was startled. He looked up at the sky, where the Big Dipper shone brightly. From time to time, streaks of starlight fell into various parts of the peak, as if many Disciples were guiding the starlight.
He stared blankly at the Big Dipper. The insights he had gained from months of cultivation seemed to be ignited by the Big Dipper at this moment, and a spark of realization surged into his heart.
He subconsciously leaped onto the stone pillars. This time, he didn't look down but kept his head raised, watching the Big Dipper.
The Seven Stars Flowing Light Step began to circulate beneath his feet. At first, it was a bit clumsy, but soon it became agile. He didn't look at the stone pillars again, yet his steps were incredibly stable. At a certain moment, a wisp of starlight was drawn by his footsteps and came before him.
Inspiration struck him. He took a step, leaving the stone pillars, but he didn't fall. Instead, he continued forward, stepping on the starlight.
Subsequently, streaks of starlight fell down. Every time he took a step, he could precisely step onto the starlight, or rather, his footsteps were drawing the starlight of the Big Dipper.
He continuously stepped forward above the forest. The pattern of the Big Dipper formed beneath his feet, echoing the Big Dipper in the sky.
"I did it! I did it! Hahaha! After months of arduous cultivation, I've finally entered the threshold!"
He shouted excitedly. As if remembering something, he immediately turned around and looked in Su Yuan's direction.
But he saw that Su Yuan had already walked far away, leaving only a silhouette.
He quickly stepped forward and shouted, "Senior Brother, what's your name? My name is Lin Kuan! Thank you for your guidance!"
Su Yuan waved his hand with his back to him, and his voice came, "Not only must you be down-to-earth, but you must also look up at the stars. When you finish practicing the first volume, you will know who I am!"
Su Yuan's silhouette completely disappeared around the corner.
Lin Kuan then noticed that the other person's Taoist robe was not right. He was startled for a moment and fell head first from mid-air.
Crack!
"Ah, my leg!"
[Ding, Fame Value +5]
Su Yuan glanced at the System panel in confusion.
"It only gave a prompt after I walked this far? Aren't the System messages supposed to be instant?" Su Yuan muttered.
Su Yuan continued walking through Three Absolutes Peak, seeing many Disciples comprehending his unique skill. This could be seen from the streaks of starlight descending from the Big Dipper in the sky from time to time.
It was also because the Big Dipper in the sky often shone, making it easier for people to comprehend the content of the unique skill.
"Wait!"
Su Yuan looked up at the sky and found that the starlight was not only falling on Three Absolutes Peak, but also on other peaks, and in no small numbers!
When midnight arrived, one could see starlight descending above the entire Seven Absolutes Sect. Streaks of starlight gathered into a river, forming a starlight channel, flowing from the Big Dipper in the sky towards the Seven Absolutes Sect in the human world.
Su Yuan soared into the air, flying to mid-air.
Viewed from further away, the scene of the starlight river falling appeared even more spectacular.
Su Yuan was dumbfounded. Such a magnificent sight meant that there were a large number of Cultivators within the Seven Absolutes Sect practicing his Taoist methods. This number far exceeded his imagination.
Then he took a closer look and suddenly discovered the reason. He saw that everywhere the Spiritual Fields of the Sect were located, Big Dipper array diagrams appeared. Streaks of starlight fell down, merging into the spiritual plants, nourishing their growth. Every single spiritual plant had to have a Big Dipper array diagram set up. And the Seven Absolutes Sect had too many spiritual plants, which was why the starlight descending from the sky was so exaggerated!
And the spiritual plants could not absorb all the starlight. The hazy starlight overflowed within the Sect, causing sparkling points of starlight to appear throughout the entire Sect, creating a dreamlike, illusory scene, as if in an Immortal Realm!
Sect Leader Gu flew over and stood beside Su Yuan, observing the magnificent scene of the Sect together.
"Su Yuan, you've finally come out of seclusion!" Gu Qingzhu said.
"Oh? Is there something?" Su Yuan asked.
"Nothing major, it's just about the Sect's name, do you want to change it?" Gu Qingzhu coughed and said, "According to custom, it should be changed to Eight Absolutes Sect!"
"No, no, no!" Su Yuan immediately shook his head and said, "I like the number seven. Changing it to eight makes me feel uncomfortable all over."
Sect Leader Gu smiled bitterly again, "Seven can be kept, but let's forget about the word 'Absolutes'! Changing it to'Stars' would be more appropriate!"
Su Yuan was startled, "Seven Stars Sect?"
Gu Qingzhu pointed to the interior of the Sect, "Now, everyone in the entire Sect is learning your unique skill. Even the Disciples from other peaks are learning it. In reality, there have always been subtle barriers between the various peaks of our Sect. They have just been suppressed by the Sect Elders, but the hidden danger still exists."
"But now, with your unique skill acting as a bridge, the Disciples have become much more harmonious, and the entire Sect is gradually uniting into a true whole! Therefore, Seven Absolutes Sect is the past; the future will be Seven Stars Sect!"
"Furthermore, Seven Stars Sect matches the name of your unique skill very well, allowing people to immediately associate it with the Sect's specialty."
Su Yuan said with a strange expression, "Sect Leader Gu, have you considered that after changing the name like this, the Patriarch will probably come running to beat me!"
Sect Leader Gu waved his hand and said, "The Patriarch left behind the inheritance and warned long ago that for the Sect to develop long-term, it needs to constantly innovate and not remain stagnant. In fact, the unique skills of each peak now are far different from the past, having already undergone updates and replacements. You have merely taken it a step further."
Su Yuan sighed, "I guess the Elder Council has already discussed it. You can handle it yourselves!"
"Hmm, there's one more thing." Gu Qingzhu coughed, his tone a bit embarrassed.
"What is it?" Su Yuan asked doubtfully.
"It's just that among the Sect's Seven Absolutes, six of them can successfully switch to cultivating your unique skill, but the sole Lei Jue is incompatible. Can you comprehend some lightning techniques and then integrate them into your unique skill?"
"What?" Su Yuan widened his eyes. "Do you think my unique skill can be created just like that?"
"Isn't it?" Gu Qingzhu showed a puzzled expression.
Su Yuan's mouth twitched. He shook his head helplessly and said, "I don't know everything. People always have shortcomings!"
Hearing this, Gu Qingzhu suddenly understood, "Are you short on Spirit Stones?"
Su Yuan paused upon hearing this, staring at Gu Qingzhu somewhat dumbfounded.
"You name the amount, and I'll have Peak Lord Lei Jue Peak reimburse you later. He really wants to integrate into the large collective of Seven Stars Sect and is getting anxious!" Gu Qingzhu said with a chuckle.
Hearing this, Su Yuan sighed, "My unique skill is usually created from comprehending the mysteries of heaven and earth. Currently, there are no mysteries of heaven and earth related to the lightning attribute at all. I really can't comprehend it."
"Mysteries of heaven and earth with the lightning attribute?"
Hearing this, Gu Qingzhu fell into contemplation.
"I remember a Spirit Transformation Ancestor from Lei Jue Peak is still cultivating at the Thunder Sea," Gu Qingzhu pondered for a moment, then his eyes lit up. "I'll contact him using the Sect's communication methods. There must be such a magnificent sight there! The Sect Ancestor can accompany you to comprehend it!"
"There's no need for such trouble. If that Ancestor has truly discovered a treasure land of lightning, he just needs to silently chant my name! I can view the magnificent sights of heaven and earth from a distance and should be able to comprehend a thing or two!" Su Yuan said.
Hearing this, Gu Qingzhu suddenly understood. He finally realized why Su Yuan was able to kill Mad Devil Taoist and Old Demon of Mist Hide. Such divine abilities were truly miraculous!
"I understand. Just wait!"
Sect Leader Gu immediately flew towards the Main Peak.
"Wait, remember to tell the Peak Lord of Lei Jue Peak that ten thousand high-grade Spirit Stones will be enough! Don't give too many!" Su Yuan shouted.
Sect Leader Gu's mouth curved up, and he replied, "No problem, it's a small matter!"
Su Yuan shook his head.
Before Sect Leader Gu had even gone far.
A streak of light also flew over from Dan Jue Peak.
Tao Yaoyao appeared beside Su Yuan.
"Peak Lord Tao?" Su Yuan asked doubtfully.
"Hmm?" Tao Yaoyao glared at him.
"Sister Tao, what's the matter?" Su Yuan said again.
Tao Yaoyao showed a peach-blossom-like smile and said, "Do you still remember the Dan Dao Gathering I mentioned before?"
"Yes, there was such a thing." Su Yuan nodded.
He had previously thought about transforming into a rogue Cultivator to seize the top position, but now that he had a better way to obtain fame value and the Myriad Treasure Cosmos Cauldron had also been refined, he no longer had the desire to participate.
"Do you want to come and be a chief examiner?" Tao Yaoyao suddenly said.
"What?" Su Yuan was startled upon hearing this.
"Me, a chief examiner? You must be joking, right?" Su Yuan said in shock.
Tao Yaoyao nodded calmly, "I am 100% certain that you have refined more flawless pills than the high-grade pills I have eaten. There is absolutely no problem with you being a chief examiner."
"No, generally only highly respected figures in Alchemy can serve as chief examiners, right?" Su Yuan asked doubtfully.
"On the territory of our Seven Stars Sect, what we say goes!" Tao Yaoyao said indifferently.
