Chapter 34 - Changing Of Stars

From the information in his mind, Li Jie could infer that he is currently at the Red stage of body refinement cultivation, whereas his strength can rival that of a normal Grand-master stage cultivator due to the specialty of his body refinement technique.

It made Li Jie happy that he has finally been able to embark on the path of cultivation, while he hasn't been able to get into the path of essence cultivation like everyone, but still he felt something was better than nothing.

Mr.Teacher could easily perceive Li Jie's thoughts while looking at him, he said in a comforting tone, "Don't worry, you don't have to hurry, remember cultivation is a path which requires perseverance, even if you don't succeed, it doesn't mean that you must give up or keep sulking about it, if you do your best and give all of your hardwork then with time you can and you will achieve it.

Li Jie understood that his teacher was thinking the best for him, he smiled with appreciation, he knew that if Mr.Teacher wasn't there in his life, he might have never been able to have a chance to become stronger in this world and be ridiculed as a cripple for the rest of his life, where only the strong rules and the weak suffer.

Li Jie was happy that he is lucky for his master to notice him or else who knows how his life would have been miserably played out.

Li Jie grew tired due to overthinking and he was missing his father, his mother, and his two cute twin brothers and sisters, for whom he thought, if he even will be able to return to after all the life and death encounters he had experienced.

"Master, I am tired I want to go back to my home", said Li Jie with a worn-out expression.

Mr.Teacher smiled towards him, "Yes, you have done as I have asked you to do, now it's fair that you get back to your home for rest, but before that there's something you should know that you have an excess amount of blood essence energy collected on your chest area, anyone with a discerning eye will be able to see, and it will only spell trouble for you, so here I will do something for your protection".

Li Jie could see Mr.Teacher lifting his finger which started glowing and with which he started to write some glowing characters on air which after completion, decreased in size and flew towards Li Jie's chest.

Li Jie was stunned when a glowing character flew into his chest, which made him feel uncomfortable for a while, and then a relaxing sensation flowed through his body.

"Master what was that just now, I felt a tingling sensation pass through my body", asked Li Jie curiously.

"What I wrote with my finger was a runic character, these characters have the power to contain laws of heaven and earth, they can be used to enhance, seal, protection and many other uses which have yet to be discovered, the one I have used on you is a complex one, which will help you in distributing the blood essence energy collected in your chest throughout your body as well as hide it from everyone's notice, by the way, the blood essence energy collected in your chest will be enough for you to reach Essence Crystallization Stage, but after that, you will have to improve the technique by yourself, only then will you be able to progress in the subsequent stages," said Mr.Teacher with a nonchalant expression.

"Master isn't the Essence Crystallization Stage enough to be called a strong person in this continent", asked Li Jie with curiosity.

"haha who told you that if you reach the Essence Crystallization Stage, you will be one of the strongest in this continent, and who cares if you are strongest in this continent, do you know there exist beings who can kill the strongest beings of your continent with just a snort, hahaha" said Mr.Teacher in an incredulous manner.

Li Jie was dumbfounded, not knowing if what he said was so wrong for his master to react this way, but when he thought deeply about it, which made him realize that what if an enemy so strong comes that no one in this continent will be able to even a put up little bit of resistance.

Yes, now it made him wonder, just what was he thinking with being complacent with whatever cultivation stage he was on, it was like a wake-up call from his master now, which made him think more and more, that why should he be complacent with any stage of cultivation he reaches.

Li Jie decided that from now on he will not be smug about his achievements, because there are mountains beyond mountains and heavens beyond heavens.

From now onwards, Li Jie had decided to keep improving and never stop.

At the same moment, it was nighttime in the Bright Heart continent, where, at the center of the continent in a majestic palace of the imperial family in a room filled with various tomes and scriptures lying around, there was a bald old man with a long beard who was dozing off, when all of a sudden, the old man opened his eyes which were filled with glee and happiness, he was sweating profusely, he couldn't believe what he dreamt about.

The old man started to check his tomes and he started reciting something, where it can be seen his eyes shifting from black to white and white to black, he couldn't believe what he was seeing, that's why he was confirming through other ways of prophecy.

At last, he came out of his room and went out to the roof where he could see brightly lit stars, and one of them being as bright as the sun.

At the dead of night, that star was shining so bright, that it's brilliance and beauty overshadowed the moon.

The old man had tears in his eyes when he looked at the immensely brightly lit star, tears were gushing out of his eyes, with an exhaustive but a relieved voice the old man said,

"Finally the stars have changed".
