Chapter 230: Chapter 126: Fire Radiant Star Domain (Subscribe Requested)_2

Like ants, even the strongest ant cannot break free from the limitations of its species.

Second-tier Star Domain warriors mainly consist of Dining Dawn Realm and not many Star Casting Realm, but the top experts in a Second-tier Star Domain could break through to the Star Refining Realm.

The strongest Domain Master could reach the peak of the Ninth Layer of the Star Refining Realm.

Yet even within the Second-tier Star Domain, native species at the Star Refining Realm are extremely rare.

In a Third-tier Star Domain, native species can achieve up to the Fourth Tier of Star Condensing Realm at the Ninth Layer Peak.

According to Ning Yuchan, this is the fundamental reason why Dachen has been unable to conquer and refine control over the Third-tier Star Domain.

Because those who can enter the Third-tier Star Domain could only be at the peak of the Ninth Layer of the Star Refining Realm.

Even Dachen’s top geniuses at the peak of the Ninth Layer of the Star Refining Realm, able to defeat Early and Middle Period warriors of the Fourth-tier Star Condensing Realm, reach the limits of their capabilities.

As for the experts at the Late Period or Peak of the Fourth-tier Star Condensing Realm, there’s simply no way to deal with them, naturally making conquest impossible.

However, it is said that within the several major Star Halls, there are conquered Third-tier Star Domains.

After a Star Domain has been conquered and controlled, the danger significantly reduces; however, the masses of native species warriors still pose a great threat to ordinary cultivators.

This is why only elite talents are selected to cast stars in the First and Second-tier Star Domains — only top-tier geniuses can enter the Star Casting of the Second-tier Star Domain.

For if the strength is not enough, sending them into the Star Casting Realm of the First-tier Star Domain would only amount to feeding the native species of that domain.

Xu Jin flew swiftly, and an hour later, upon reaching the foot of the small mountain target, a ten-member Red Scale combat squad had already approached from the left.

The leader of the squad was at the Star Casting Realm.

Early Period of Star Casting!

The other nine members, most were at the Sixth and Seventh Layers of the Dining Dawn Realm.

Such a lineup could indeed only be handled by Dachen’s top geniuses.

People like Meng Qingqiu and Yan Chen could deal with it, but it would also take some time.

But for Xu Jin, it was still easy.

Such a lineup, even three days ago, Xu Jin could have easily handled.

Not to mention now, after having taken three doses of Mental-locking Golden Pill and undergone Purification nine times, Xu Jin’s strength had surged once again.

The Early Period of Star Casting Realm ended with two immediate kills by Star Arrow.

After the killing, Xu Jin stepped forward, his First-tier Star Weapon accurately targeting the chest of this Red Scale warrior, and subsequently, a bloody Star Core was extracted.

At the moment of extraction, Xu Jin felt somewhat reluctant.

But recalling the history that Ning Yuchan had shared, his heart hardened in an instant.

Whether it was a First-tier or Second-tier Star Domain, each Domain, before being conquered and controlled by Dachen, had inflicted indelible damage.

At a minimum, millions of civilians were killed or injured; in many cases, the casualties mounted to tens of millions.

The positions of both sides were bloody.

This was an Alien Race even more brutal than the native Barbarian Clan.

Even the Star Domains that had been conquered and taken control of by Dachen were not absolutely submissive.

Every year, Dachen sent top-tier genius disciples into these Domains for Star Casting, which was another form of clipping.

As Ning Yuchan had said, this Second-tier Fire Radiant Star Domain had only been conquered and controlled by Dachen sixty-three years ago, yet before the conquest, Red Scale warriors had invaded multiple times, abducting more than three million civilians.

And to conquer the Fire Radiant Star Domain, in the thirty years before the conquest by Dachen, the number of elite disciples at the Star Casting Realm who had died in battle surpassed ten thousand!

After collecting the Red Scale warrior captain’s Star Core into a pouch, other Star Weapons and the like, Xu Jin left untouched.

The fire-imbued Star Weapons unique to this Fire Radiant Star Domain would turn to junk once taken out.

Only some precious Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures were useful when taken out.

Having killed this squad of Red Scale warriors, Xu Jin did not rush to cast stars up the mountain but started searching rapidly around.

According to Ning Yuchan’s earlier instructions, as soon as foreign species enter the Star Domain, the native species have a strong sense, and surrounding warriors flock to hunt.

In the eyes of these native species, these intruders are no different from a moving treasury.

However, in the Second-tier Star Domain, the number of powerful beings in the Star Casting Realm is limited, and those in the Star Refining Realm are even rarer, plus the territory is vast.

Normally, within a radius of three to five hundred miles, having two or three beings at the Star Casting Realm was the limit.

Hence Ning Yuchan’s advice to Xu Jin was, upon entering the Fire Radiant Star Domain, to roam and hunt the Alien Race in the first two hours, which should then allow for a relatively long period of safety to calmly cast stars.

The real danger would only appear half a day after entering the Fire Radiant Star Domain.

The experts of the Fire Radiant Star Domain would search in groups for the intruders and then hunt them.

The scent and location of the intruders were as clear to the native species as stars in the night sky.

Thus, such hunting would come wave after wave, each wave stronger than the last.

Eventually, even experts in the Mid to Late Period of Star Refining would come to hunt.

There were even cases of bad luck where, just half a day after entering, they encountered a Third-level Star Refining expert.

The importance of returning to Jade became clear here.

And only a conquered and controlled Star Domain could produce the Return Jade of that very Star Domain.

Two hours later, Xu Jin’s pouch contained four Second-tier Star Cores, the strongest among them being at the Mid-tier of Star Casting.

An hour later, Xu Jin reached the highest spot in this region.

It was a red mountain about a kilometer tall.

The reason for seeking higher ground for cultivation was that, no matter in which world, higher places always held denser Star Power.
