Chapter 214: Chapter 101: New Member and Contribution Points

As Lin Sisi’s brush danced like a dragon and snake above the stone platform, the Array gradually took shape. In no time, the Enlightenment Array, composed of silver dye, vividly appeared before their eyes.

At the sign from Zhang Xiaoman, Ye Cang slowly approached the stone platform, his fingertips pierced, and a few drops of fresh blood dripped into the Array below.

Instantly, a dazzling white light flared up, and the silver lines on it flowed as if they had come to life.

Mr. Ye’s eyes shone with determination, and then he suddenly pressed down his right hand, placing his palm in the center of the Array; the surrounding scenery immediately changed, and he had entered an illusion.

Zhang Xiaoman was also closely observing Mr. Ye’s reactions, as this was only his second time witnessing it. He wanted to take this opportunity to learn more about the Enlightenment Array.

Ye Cang pressed his hand on the stone platform, his eyes closed, and his brow slightly furrowed, seemingly resisting the influence of the illusion.

Unlike Lin Sisi, he did not exhibit any other abnormal behaviors, but stood quietly in front of the platform, as if completely unaffected by the illusion, which left Brother Hero somewhat puzzled.

Zhang Xiaoman, however, knew the situation of the other party.

Ye Cang’s resolve was firm, and having experienced countless such illusions, along with his vast experience and solid mental state, this scene should pose no problem for him.

Indeed, it wasn’t long before Mr. Ye had already broken free from the illusion.

His lips parted slightly, and he whispered gently, "There is no Immortal Path in this world. I have already embarked on another true Extraordinary Path. Such scenes, how can they deceive me..."

Having said this, he suddenly opened his eyes, and the white light around him also converged at that moment, gathering in his right hand, and the scene of the Immortal Mountain seeking the path disappeared.

Ye Cang raised his hand. On his palm, the Seven-pointed Star Array representing the Star Alliance had been engraved.

Zhang Xiaoman looked at him, a smile gracing his face, "It seems you have succeeded. Congratulations, from now on, you are a true Awakener. Welcome to the Star Alliance."

Ye Cang appeared dazed, stunned for quite a long while before he regained his senses. He quickly bowed to Zhang Xiaoman and said:

"Thank you, Lord Jixing, for your support. From now on, I will dedicate my life to the Star Alliance."

Seeing this scene, Brother Hero couldn’t help but show envy. He eagerly looked at Zhang Xiaoman, also hoping to undergo Enlightenment and become an Awakener like them.

Zhang Xiaoman did not delay any further. However, he no longer had the Dark Energy to use the Enlightenment Array again, so he found an excuse to leave for a moment, but in reality, he teleported back to the city using the Starry Stone and refilled his Dark Energy with its effects.

A moment later, Zhang Xiaoman re-entered the Underground Palace. Although the others didn’t quite understand what he had just done, they did not ask more, but Brother Hero still looked at him with a longing expression, causing him to chuckle and shake his head.

"Alright, Brother Hero, don’t look at me like that. I’ve already prepared your Awakening materials. Make sure not to disappoint me when it’s your turn."

Brother Hero nodded, "Don’t worry, I will definitely succeed!"

Zhang Xiaoman then took the new materials, injected Dark Energy into them, and handed them to Lin Sisi to draw the Enlightenment Array, and everything proceeded very smoothly.

Next, it was all up to Brother Hero.

As he pressed his palm into the Array, like the two before him, he was immediately enveloped by a white light and fell into an illusion.

Having watched Ye Cang’s Awakening process, he had learned a thing or two, immediately closed his eyes, and constantly muttered a phrase:

"I am Awakening, do not let go... I am Awakening, do not let go..."

Seeing him in this state, Zhang Xiaoman also felt an eager anticipation, wondering if this method would work.

But it soon became clear that it was futile.

After Brother Hero entered the illusion, it wasn’t long before he stopped his incessant mumbling, as if he had completely forgotten the events just moments before, and a look of fear emerged on his face.

Zhang Xiaoman was puzzled by this, given Ye Cang’s recent performance indicating that he still retained his memories.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to say those last words, so why was it completely different with Brother Hero? What exactly was the connection here?

Looking at Brother Hero again, the fear on his face had deepened a bit more, but fortunately, his palms remained in place, and his eyes were still tightly closed, seemingly enduring through gritted teeth.

If you were looking from the outside, the awakening didn’t seem to be too difficult, only those who had experienced it personally could understand just how challenging it was.

In Brother Hero’s eyes, his surroundings were filling with various terrifying and thrilling sounds. The inhuman growls rising from behind him were getting closer, and he could almost feel the warm air by his ears, as if the next second, he would be devoured by some indescribable horror.

Brother Hero was now just instinctively keeping his eyes closed, his body in the same stiff position as before.

This scene continued for several minutes, with the few people around him looking worriedly at him, until, after a long while, the white light around him gradually faded, signaling that he had escaped from the illusion.

"Are, are the monsters gone... Eh? Wait, I was undergoing an awakening!"

Brother Hero opened his eyes, instinctively raised his hand to look at his palm, where an Eye of the Starry Sky icon had appeared.

He felt a wave of relief. During his time in the illusion, he hadn’t realized it was part of the awakening; instead, the realistic sounds of monsters around him kept echoing in his ears, frightening him to immobility—little did he know that he would pass just like that.

Just like that, Brother Hero inexplicably passed the test of the illusion, and it had to be said, he truly was a Luck Emperor.

Now, Zhang Xiaoman could see the attribute panels of the two individuals, like Lin Sisi, both at the first stage of Enlightenment, with a Dark Energy limit fixed at 100 points.

"Very good, from now on, you have become Awakeners. This is the Starry Stone, used for teleportation to Rebirth Island. Keep it safe..."

Zhang Xiaoman handed each of them a first-order stone, also reminded them of some precautions, and then continued:

"There aren’t any tasks recently; you should go back and familiarize yourselves with your abilities. Try to communicate well with the Dark Energy Particles and enhance your strength first."

As he spoke, he took out two small bound booklets and handed them to the two, saying:

"These contain some Dark Energy Techniques and methods to enhance Dark Energy that I’ve recorded. Go back and take a good look. I suggest you prioritize learning the ’Spirit Detection Technique’ and ’Constitution Enhancement’ formulas; they can greatly boost your combat strength in a short time..."

He also took the opportunity to explain the use and relevance of Contribution Points to those present before concluding the conversation.

Zhang Xiaoman planned to open up parts of the shop’s items to Star Alliance members, which required them to purchase using Contribution Points.

As for the Skill Formulas, apart from certain key cores like the Enlightenment Array, the rest would be unconditionally open for all members to peruse and learn at any time.

This was part of his well-considered plan over the past few days; the aim of the Star Alliance was to combat the invasion of Alien Species. Obviously, it was not possible to hide Cultivation Techniques and restrict members’ strength.

Moreover, once one person knew a Skill Formula, it would inevitably spread to others, so it was better to openly publish it, which would also facilitate exchange and development among members.

After all, according to the regulations Zhang Xiaoman had set, whoever developed a new formula would also earn Contribution Points.

"Alright, that’s it for today. You’ll be taking the anti-gravity car back later. Follow the methods I’ve given you and cultivate well these days. If you receive my assembly command, you must immediately return to Rebirth Island; there can be no mistake."
