397: Chapter 178: The Big Gift from the Teacher 397: Chapter 178: The Big Gift from the Teacher Star Patterns of the Fifth Tier and above that Xu Jin was currently able to learn were listed by the National Master Cheng Yuxiao.
Essentially, all the Star Patterns that Xu Jin had learned so far were included in the list.
The Great Gathering Star Pattern, Mid-tier Fire Origin Star Pattern, Spiral Star Pattern, teor Star Pattern, Blast Fla Star Pattern, and Star Transformation Star Pattern.
Additionally, National Master Cheng Yuxiao provided Xu Jin with two special Star Patterns that he could learn anew.
The Thorny Star Pattern and the Swimming Fish Star Pattern.
Both of these special Star Patterns could increase defense to a certain extent.
However, the Thorny Star Pattern would enhance so defensive power while rebounding Star Power, whereas the Swimming Fish Star Pattern was a very clever Star Pattern for dissipating force.
If mastered, no matter what kind of Star Power attack one faced, it was possible to deflect a portion of it.
If Xu Jin chose to learn, he could learn up to the Swimming Fish Star Pattern in the Fifth Tier Middle.
The Swimming Fish Star Pattern in the Fifth Tier Middle could deflect two and a half tenths of the attacking Star Power, which was considered a rather strong defensive asure.
“National Master, I have a question.
Previously, Teacher Liu Qingzhu ntioned that the Mid-tier Fire Origin Star Pattern was exclusively owned by the Ji Family of Wanyi in the entire Dachen, with only them having the Fifth Tier’s Mid-tier Fire Origin.
Why do you also have it?” Xu Jin asked his first question.
“Liu Qingzhu is indeed a good teacher, but she doesn’t major in Fire Series Star Skills, so there are so things she has not co across.
Many years ago, the Mid-tier Fire Origin Star Pattern of the Fifth Tier possessed by the Ji Family truly was the strongest Mid-tier Fire Origin in Dachen.
But the Ji Family is just one clan, and the resources it controls are ultimately a bit lacking compared to the National Taoist Institute.
Besides, although the Ji Family is powerful, they are still subjects of Dachen.
Thus, over a decade ago, I secretly made a deal with the Ji Family.
As a result, the National Taoist Institute naturally obtained an even stronger Mid-tier Fire Origin Star Pattern.
However, to learn the Fifth Tier’s Fire Origin Star Pattern, there are quite a few requirents.
Within the entire National Taoist Institute, not many have learned it, and naturally, there are very, very few who are aware of it.
Furthermore, every disciple who learns a Star Pattern of the Fifth Tier and above from the National Taoist Institute has to accept the binding imprint of Nine Bright Chi.”
“Nine Bright Chi?” Xu Jin was sowhat puzzled.
“This is the National Artifact of Dachen Country!
It is also our Dachen’s National Guardian Star Artifact.”
As he spoke, National Master Cheng Yuxiao flicked his finger, and suddenly a small chi of cyan and gold appeared between his fingers.
There were nine small bells on the chi, each giving Xu Jin a different feeling.
So were very cute, akin to dolls, others exuded a ferocious aura at a glance, and upon looking at the ninth bell, Xu Jin felt as if he were about to get sucked in, his world spinning.
With a flick of his sleeve, the National Master made all the anomalies disappear.
“Now that you’ve asked, let take this opportunity to explain.
If you choose to learn a Star Pattern of the Fifth Tier or above from the National Taoist Institute, you will have to be sealed by the Nine Bright Chi.
However, this seal will have no effect on you.
Once the seal is placed, the Star Patterns you learn from the National Taoist Institute cannot be displayed to anyone in any form without rank-based permission.
You can use the Star Patterns you learn and engrave them yourself, but you cannot replicate them for others.
It is mainly to prevent leakage.
In the future, when you reach a certain rank in the National Taoist Institute, you will then have the freedom to teach others,” explained Cheng Yuxiao.
After speaking, Cheng Yuxiao asked, “Xu Jin, are you willing to accept the seal of the Nine Bright Chi?
If you are, then once sealed, you can learn the Star Patterns of the Fifth Tier and above.
If not, then…”
“Of course I’m willing!
With this seal, the mid-high-tier Star Patterns from the National Taoist Institute cannot be leaked!
National Master, do the other Star Halls have similar Star Artifacts or secret thods?” Xu Jin asked.
“They all have them!
Even if they don’t, they would exert the nation’s strength to create one, because leaking just one would be tantamount to aiding the enemy, resulting in great losses.”
Cheng Yuxiao’s words sowhat disappointed Xu Jin.
Xu Jin had previously thought about capturing disciples from the Star Hall to obtain cherished Star Patterns from them, but it seed this thod could be abandoned; he would not have to consider it any longer.
However, the next addition from the National Master made Xu Jin’s heart stir again.
“It can indeed prevent leakage, but it is not absolute.
So secret techniques, such as the high-tier Soul Searching Secret Technique, can still get through,” said National Master Cheng Yuxiao, “However, those who can master and use the high-tier Soul Searching Secret Technique are extrely rare, and you don’t have to worry too much about that.”
“Since you’re willing, then I shall proceed.”
The next mont, the National Master took out the Nine Bright Chi and gently flicked the first cyan bell!
Hum!
As the clear chi sounded, a cyan light wave surged out from the bell, then entered into Xu Jin’s Upper Star Palace.
Inside Xu Jin’s Upper Star Palace, ripples of cyan light passed through and then vanished as if nothing had happened.
But the Mingji Star Pattern sensitively felt as if sothing elusive had been added within the Upper Star Palace, binding it.
“National Master, I would like to know which Star Patterns here have versions above the Sixth Tier?
Are there any above the Seventh Tier?” Xu Jin asked such a question because of the so-called ‘inference upper limit’ ntioned by the National Master.
Since the National Master said it was for Xu Jin to choose a Star Pattern to learn to his full potential, Xu Jin must ensure to learn a Star Pattern of the Sixth Tier or even higher.
Otherwise, it would be a loss.
Xu Jin had many questions, but National Master Cheng Yuxiao was not bothered and answered each one in detail.
First was the issue of Seventh Tier Star Patterns.
Single Seventh Tier Star Patterns had to be comprehended individually; uniformly teachable single Seventh Tier Star Patterns were extrely rare.
