Chapter 1139: Power of the Seventh Order?

As he was being led there, Shang Xia discovered that Shang Xia not only managed to fumble his way into the Star Ship. He was also part of the pair of experts responsible for guarding prisoners.

Shang Xia glared at Kou Chongxue who looked like he was taking his job very seriously, and a foot quickly landed on his ass.

“Fuck! What the hell are you looking at?! Being captured by the mighty Star Origin Guards is your honor! Hmph, just wait! You’re going to be sent away into the prison under the Star Observatory for a long time where you can repent on your actions!” Kou Chongxue growled. His identity as a vicious guard was played perfectly.

The other guard shot him a weird grin and muttered, “Old Kou, is there a need to waste your breath with these people? Just lock them up and be done with it. There will be people to mess with him when the time comes.”

Both of them joked around and pushed him deeper and deeper into the ship. When they finally arrived, Kou Chongxue gave him a strong boot to his ass to send him flying into the cell.

Shang Xia couldn’t help but wonder if Kou Chongxue was doing it on purpose. However, he couldn’t say anything at that moment, and could only endure the treatment silently.

“Old Kou, don’t judge this cell just because it’s small. Every single bar is made up of Frost Metal, a rank four spiritual treasure. There are countless runes carved into them and it’s a miniature sealed space within. Not only can it block off all traces of heaven and earth qi, it can also suppress the inner qi of its captive.” The other guard was clearly someone who had a lot of experience and he couldn’t help but reveal his sense of superiority when speaking to the newbie guard beside him.

Kou Chongxue immediately put on an expression of shock and gasped, “Oh my! Is that really so?! Even the bars are made of rank four spiritual treasure... Isn’t this just a small prison on the Star Ships we have? What would the real prison under the Star Observatory look like?”

Hearing how his fellow newbie guard was humbly requesting his guidance, he looked mighty pleased with himself and he couldn’t help but explain, “Old Kou, you might not know, but not everyone has the qualifications to enter the main prison. The people there are vicious characters who harmed the city, and anyone who can do that has an impressive cultivation level...”

Kou Chongxue raised his eyebrows in confusion. “Since they’re so powerful and have caused harm to the city, why don’t they just kill those criminals? There won’t be a need to be afraid of them escaping in that case...”

“This...” The old guard coughed once to hide his awkwardness. Clearly, Kou Chongxue’s question was something he had no answer to. He didn’t answer the question and instead, focused on something else. “Escape? Escaping is impossible! Do you know what contains them? They are actually being suppressed by the Star Observatory!”

“According to the rumors, the Star Observatory was something left behind by the Star Origin Lord back then. After those people are suppressed by it, it’s the end of them. It was said that there was once someone who tried to break out with outside help, but those working on the outside were captured and thrown in as well. Oh yeah, the reason the Star Origin Guards captured them is because they wish to bait out their companions. Yeah, that’s it!” The older guard concluded and yelled in excitement as though he had it figured out.

Both of them were walking away from the cell that held Shang Xia, and neither of them hid their conversation. Shang Xia heard both of them clearly.

“So that’s it...” Kou Chongxue pretended to fall deep in thought and he continued, “It was actually something left behind by the Star Origin Lord... It’s said that he’s an existence who surpassed the Martial Void Realm! I really wish to meet him...”

The older guard roared with laughter. “Those people who have the qualifications to meet him are probably all locked up in the main prison! Old Kou, are you sure you wish to meet with him?”

Kou Chongxue shook his head in fright at the sound of that.

The older guard merely burst into even louder laughter.

Taking the chance, Kou Chongxue continued to ask, “Brother, I’m new here and I don’t know much... Can you tell me more about the Star Origin Lord?”

“The Star Origin Lord hasn’t shown himself in the past hundreds of years... What can I know about him? Even if I know anything, I wouldn’t dare to reveal it randomly!” The older guard sighed.

“How can you say that you’re revealing it randomly?” Kou Chongxue smiled and led him away, “Let’s go, I still have a jar of rank three Monkey Wine! Since we’re on our way back after our patrol, we should finish it!”

The older guard gasped in shock, “Old Kou, you actually have such good stuff on you? It’s said that Monkey Wine originates from the Spirit Luxuriant World and it’s hard to get any because of how little is produced! It’s kind of famous in the city... After we sealed off the spatial tunnels, this thing became even more rare... I didn’t think you would be able to get your hands on stuff like that!”

Kou Chongxue sighed with slight embarrassment, “Hahaha, you’re overestimating me. How can I possess such great connections? I only managed to get my hands on this because I helped the deputy captain out from time to time... Ahem. Let’s not talk about this. Here, let’s drink!”

The tinkling of cups rang through the air the next moment and satisfied grunts could be heard. The older guard eventually started talking again, and this time, his tone was filled with admiration, “I didn’t think that you would have friendly relations with the deputy captain... I was rude earlier! Even though Deputy Captain Feng is only the deputy captain for now, everyone knows that the old captain is about to retire. The position of captain will belong to Deputy Captain Feng anyway. When that happens, your position will definitely grow along with it and I will need to rely on you when that happens...”

Kou Chongxue seemed to choke as he sputtered in fright, “No, no... What do you mean by friendly relations with Deputy Captain Feng, I’m just an errand boy at best! Ever since I came on board, you have been taking care of me and I can’t thank you enough!”

In the tiny prison, Shang Xia couldn’t help but snort derisively. It was the first time he was seeing how Kou Chongxue acted while acting as a spy for the other side and he couldn’t help but feel a range of complex emotions.

Perhaps it had something to do with the rank three Monkey Wine, or Kou Chongxue’s ‘accidental’ revelation that he had good relations with Feng Ziying, but the older guard was no longer as guarded against him. Both of them seemed to become the best of friends.

As Shang Xia listened in on the conversation between them, he could summarize everything into 3 main points. The first was that the prison under the Star Observatory contained high-level experts who once brought harm to the Star Origin City. It was also extremely likely it was where Liu Jiuzhen was. Secondly, the reason behind the chaos might have something to do with the disappearance of the Star Origin Lord. Seventh Camp Commander, Xing Xingtian, suspected that Zhuge Xiang, the Guards Commander, had been intentionally hiding the fact that the Star Origin Lord had gone missing. He even suspects that Zhuge Xiang might have something to do with the disappearance. The third was that Feng Ziying’s captain was planning to retire soon because he had exhausted his talent. However, there was also a hidden reason why he wished to hide from the storm that was happening and the troubles it might bring.

As Shang Xia listened in on their conversation, he tried to undo the seals on him.

Because he hid his cultivation at the third element of the Martial Dipper Realm, they placed 3 different types of restriction on him to seal his strength. If it was merely shaking free of them, it was nothing but a single thought for the third tier True Immortal... However, getting rid of the restrictions without being discovered was a challenge. Especially if he had to make it look like it was still restraining him if they checked it.

How could Shang Xia still not understand the plan with things having gone that far? The scheme Kou Chongxue and Feng Ziying had cooked up involved him being thrown into the main prison under the Star Observatory!

As for what he needed to do after he was sent there... When he heard that Liu Jiuzhen was likely imprisoned there, he could guess what their plan was.

The reason behind him being the one to enter the main prison was also simple. Both Kou Chongxue and Feng Ziying knew that Shang Xia’s inner qi was extremely special. It was the best when it came to getting rid of formations and restrictions.

Indeed... 2 of the 3 restrictions that sealed off his strength were merely decorations in front of Shang Xia. He didn’t need to break through them forcefully and if he simply continued to circulate his inner qi, they would disappear after some time.

It was a shame that in order to prevent anyone else from noticing the abnormality, he had to consciously maintain those restrictions in him!

As for the third... Shang Xia actually ran into a bit of a problem when dealing with it.

The third seal was something created with the joint effort of all 7 members of the Star Origin Guards. It used the power of starlight that formed a formless barrier around his dantian.

As he circulated his inner qi, he discovered that the power of starlight wasn’t being instantly eroded by his Six Direction Inner Qi!

“Interesting...” Shang Xia didn’t show his emotions, but he felt a little intrigued.

That was because he could tell that the starlight barrier around his dantain possessed a strange property and its quality vaguely surpassed the inner qi produced by his Six Element Origin!

It seemed really incredible...

The power of starlight... Star essence, and the power of the stars...

The restriction was special, but that didn’t stop him from messing around with it with his inner qi.

Despite it being of high quality, it was just too weak when compared to the third tier True Immortal that was Shang Xia. Even if it could hold out for the time being, with Shang Xia consciously smashing his inner qi into it, the seal would eventually be broken.

Thinking about the restriction, Shang Xia still had his concerns. One had to know that the restriction had been placed by 7 ordinary Star Origin Guards. When they worked together, they would be comparable to a True Immortal who just broke through. What if a True Immortal from the Star Origin Guards reinforced the seal with others before he was thrown into the main prison under the Star Observatory?

Would he be capable of destroying the restriction in that case?

Also if the Star Observatory was able to draw on the power of the stars, what was he supposed to do when locked up in there?

When Shang Xia was thinking about the many considerations, he heard footsteps approaching his cell.

Only then did he realize that 4 hours had passed. Kou Chongxue and the older guard were nowhere to be seen as they had finished the jar of Monkey Wine a long time ago.

Surprisingly, Kou Chongxue appeared the next moment and he stood right outside the cell.

Before Kou Chongxue could say anything, Shang Xia asked curiously, “I find it a little strange... Rather than asking that weird fellow, why not ask Feng Ziying what you want to know? Even if Feng Ziying doesn’t know, he would be able to ask his Camp Commander. The other guard can’t possibly know more than a deputy captain in the Star Origin Guards, right?”

Seeing how Shang Xia was speaking so casually, Kou Chongxue knew that Shang Xia had already gotten rid of the restrictions. He was most likely able to tell that there wasn’t anyone else around.

Kou Chongxue snorted, “What do you know? The other guard was called Jia Ji and he had been someone working under the captain for a long time. He might not be in the Star Origin Guards, but he has a lot of experience working with the captain. He knows quite a lot of secrets, and he has a good grasp of the captain’s relationships. The moment the captain retires and Feng Ziying takes his spot, Jia Ji will have to find another backer. I have good relations with Feng Ziying and Jia Ji is more than happy to reveal some information to me to get on my good side.”

Shang Xia gasped in shock, “I didn’t think that braggart would actually be someone of some importance...”

Kou Chongxue burst out laughing, but he turned to Shang Xia and asked seriously, “How about it? Are you confident of succeeding?”

Shang Xia knew that Kou Chongxue was asking if he thought it would be possible to get rid of the seal before he was thrown in the main prison without being discovered.

Shaking his head, Shang Xia mumbled, “I am able to get rid of the restriction on me without any problems, but the situation in the main prison is unknown and I don’t dare to say for sure. Moreover...”

“Moreover?” Kou Chongxue frowned.

“... Moreover, I suspect that the restriction created by the combination of the Star Origin Guards is something that has touched upon the power of the Seventh Order...” Shang Xia continued.

Kou Chongxue was slightly taken aback, but he quickly turned serious. “Are you sure? How do you know it’s the power of the Seventh Order?”

Shang Xia grunted once and blinked twice before he explained, “The power of the starlight contains a special property and even if I wish to erode it with my Six Direction Qi, it will be slightly difficult. I can tell that the quality of the restriction should be slightly higher than my inner qi. However, the feeling of the restriction they placed is too weak and I managed to destroy it with brute force.”

Kou Chongxue’s attention was no longer on Shang Xia’s words actually and he zoomed in on the other point Shang Xia bought up. “Do you mean to say that the path to the Seventh Order of the Primary Realm lies in the power of stars?”

“I... I think so?” Shang Xia stuttered softly.
