Chapter 171: Star Position

“According to the trigram, the star position is indeed wrong. If it needs to be moved, does it require the use of the Edict Command to move this stone pillar?”

He Xiuyuan calculated for a moment, and the answer came to his mind.

To return this stone pillar to its original position, the Edict Command was required.

Thinking of this, He Xiuyuan immediately cast the Edict Command, sending the edict into the stone pillar.

As the golden light of the ‘Edict’ character imprinted on the stone pillar, when He Xiuyuan reached out his hand again, he felt the stone pillar suddenly lighten.

Seeing this, He Xiuyuan immediately moved Yaoguang to the correct position. Once the stone pillar was in place, He Xiuyuan then dispelled the edict on the stone pillar.

As the golden light dissipated, the stone pillar returned to its unmovable state.

“This is indeed miraculous; it requires an Edict to move it. I wonder what effect it will have after restoring this stone pillar to its star position?”

He Xiuyuan felt invigorated by this sight and continued to walk downwards.

A moment later, He Xiuyuan arrived at Kaiyang. After restoring Kaiyang using the same method, He Xiuyuan next found Yuheng, then Tianquan, Tianji, Tianxuan, and Tianshu.

The Big Dipper here was also the same as in his previous life: Yaoguang was the Po Jun Star, Kaiyang was the Wu Qu Star, then Lian Zhen Star, Wen Qu Star, Lu Cun Star, Ju Men Star, and Tan Lang Star.

The alternate names of the seven stars flashed through He Xiuyuan’s mind, and then he corrected each star position one by one.

When the seven stars were reset, He Xiuyuan immediately stopped, his gaze fixed on the seven stone pillars before him, a hint of anticipation in his heart.

Since these stone pillars had been reset, any miraculous changes should have manifested by now, right?

Thinking of this, He Xiuyuan's eyes were filled with anticipation.

However, He Xiuyuan’s gaze fell upon the stone pillars before him, and after waiting for a long time, he saw that the stone pillars remained motionless, without any abnormality.

Seeing this, He Xiuyuan couldn't help but be stunned, “Strange… why is there no change?”

Saying this, He Xiuyuan tentatively infused Spiritual Qi into the stone pillar, but still, the stone pillar showed no change.

It seemed like it was just an ordinary stone after all.

Strange…

He Xiuyuan stood before the stone pillars, waiting for about an hour. Seeing no change in the stones, he couldn't help but sigh in resignation.

“How strange, why is there no change?”

“Or perhaps, this is just a stone?”

“But that’s not right, it took so much effort to move this stone just now…”

Thinking of this, He Xiuyuan immediately started to calculate again with his fingers.

However, this time, He Xiuyuan couldn't calculate anything.

It seemed that because his Dao cultivation was too low, the things he needed to calculate were beyond his scope, and the results he obtained were hazy and offered no clear answer.

“Forget it… it’s really a bit of a waste of time.”

“When my Dao cultivation is higher, I’ll come back and figure out what’s going on with you.”

Seeing that he had wasted most of the day here, He Xiuyuan felt a bit annoyed and turned to leave.

........

“Hey, Master, you’ve come out of seclusion!”

Inside Biluo Temple, as dusk fell, the Disciples saw their Master and Junior Martial Uncle emerge from seclusion. Ming Xiu immediately went to greet them, his face filled with joy.

Qing Yunzi nodded with a benevolent expression. All the necessary preparations for fortune-telling were complete.

Next, he would use his entire Dao cultivation and the remaining meager portion of his lifespan to divine the future of Biluo Temple.

His emergence from seclusion today was also to see his Disciples.

Looking at the Disciples before him, Qing Yunzi felt a surge of emotion. After seeing them today, they would likely be separated by Yin and Yang in the future.

“How was your Cultivation today?”

Thinking of this, Qing Yunzi also inquired about his Disciples’ daily studies.

The Disciples quickly replied, “Last night, Senior He taught us the Water Manipulation Technique, and we have almost mastered it now.”

“This morning, Senior He said he had something to do, so he went down the mountain and left. He asked us to inform Master and Junior Martial Uncle.”

Qing Yunzi was startled upon hearing this. He naturally knew that He Fellow Daoist, and also knew that his Dao methods were extraordinary, but he hadn't expected him to leave so soon.

“He even taught you the Water Manipulation Technique?”

Qing Yunzi seemed to recall something and quickly asked again.

“Yes, Senior He is truly amazing. When he taught this Spell, we felt it was extremely easy to learn.”

Saying this, they immediately performed the Spell, drawing water from a distant mountain spring.

They mastered this Dao method in just one night?

Qing Yunzi and the other person were both stunned by this. Then their gazes converged; this Senior He seemed even more formidable than they had imagined...

“Master, do we truly not have that Sword Control Technique, or that Law, Heaven and Earth Divine Ability? If we do, and Senior He learns it and then teaches us, Disciple believes we can learn it very quickly!”

Ming Fang also felt that learning the Water Manipulation Technique was remarkably simple and easy, and he knew that He Xiuyuan was likely responsible for this.

Thinking of this, he immediately felt that if Biluo Temple had such Spells, giving them to He Xiuyuan would be most appropriate.

If He Xiuyuan had them, then it would be very easy for them to learn them later.

Qingxiao Daoist frowned upon hearing Ming Fang’s words, “How do you know about Sword Control Technique and the Law, Heaven and Earth Divine Ability?”

“Naturally, I heard Senior He and Junior Martial Uncle you speak of it. Disciple just now….”

Ming Fang, hearing this, subconsciously began to answer.

However, halfway through his sentence, he realized something was wrong and quickly stopped, but by then, it was already too late.

Qingxiao Daoist stared at Ming Fang, a chilling smile appearing on his face, “Oh, you mean you used Dao methods to eavesdrop on my conversation with He Fellow Daoist?”

Qing Yunzi, listening from the side, also had his face darken, “To actually use Dao methods to eavesdrop on elders’ conversations, your audacity is growing!”

“Crack!”

With a crisp sound, Qingxiao Daoist had, at some unknown point, picked up a willow branch and then fiercely whipped it across Ming Fang’s backside.

“Ow!”

Ming Fang, after taking that whip, immediately turned a pig-liver color, jumped three meters high, and wailed uncontrollably while clutching his backside.

Qing Yunzi, seeing this, loudly said, “Junior Brother, use more strength! This boy dares to use Dao methods to eavesdrop? If he isn’t taught a good lesson today, who knows what this boy will become in the future!”

Qingxiao Daoist responded, his hand movements incessant. The willow branch swung so fast it left afterimages, each strike precisely landing on the other party’s backside.

Under such whipping, Ming Fang could only wail repeatedly, begging for mercy.

Ming Xiu and the others watched from the side, suppressing their laughter, looking down to avoid Ming Fang.

But very quickly, they realized something: Senior He had previously said that Disciple Ming Fang was going to have bad luck.

Before, they thought Senior had miscalculated, as Junior Brother hadn't had any trouble all day, but now… it seemed to have come true…
