The treatment for the Star Pce disciples naturally was not just limited to that.
As long as one was promoted to a Star Pce disciple, fixed resources were given out every month.
The distribution of these resources was based on the Myriad Phenomena Tower’s achievements.
Among them, Star Pce disciples who passed the tenthyer of the Myriad Phenomena Tower would be given one spirit crystal every month.
Spirit crystals were cultivation resources for martial artists, and at the same time, the main medium for exchange among martial artists.
The spirit crystals contained an abundance of spiritual energy, and one spirit crystal was enough to maintain the cultivation of an early-stage True Qi Realm martial artist for about ten to fifteen days.
This especially showed the preciousness of spirit crystals.
After tucking away his Star Robe, identity token, and spirit crystals, Lu Yun followed a steward towards the buildings that looked like a ring of stars.
There were many of these buildings, each with two floors, standing tall on several peaks like a sky full of stars.
This was the residence of the Star Pce disciples, the Star Peak.
Soon.
Under the guidance of the steward, Lu Yun arrived at the waist of a mountain peak, which was the location of his residence.
A single building, with two floors, a small courtyard, a beautiful environment, quiet, and asionally birdsong could be heard.
“This is Building No. 3358, and from now on, it is yours. You are responsible for cleaning and maintaining it.”
After giving the instruction, the steward turned and left.
Lu Yun didn’t enter the building right away, but surveyed the surroundings first and found that the distance between each building was quite far, about twenty meters apart.
“This is good, so as long as the cultivation noise is not too big, it won’t affect each other.”
Muttering to himself, Lu Yun pushed open the courtyard door and entered.
Everything was new, brand new to the point where Lu Yun wondered if anyone had ever lived here before.
He opened each room one by one, and indeed, the furniture and equipment inside were all brand new and had never been used by anyone.
What surprised him was that it even had separate bathrooms and a kitchen.
It was normal to have a bathroom, but why was there a kitchen? Were they supposed to cook for themselves and livefortably?
Lu Yun nced at the kitchen utensils, which were all new and unused, undoubtedly confirming his inner guess.
“Well, when I’m hungry, I can just go to a restaurant in the county capital to solve it.”
Lu Yun casually closed the kitchen, came to the bedroom.
Both the bed sheets and quilts were new, neatly folded and ced on the bed.
There were some other decorations in the room but all were simple; Lu Yun didn’t care. He went into the cultivation room.
Compared to the other rooms, the cultivation room was even simpler, with only one white futon…
After casually roaming around, Lu Yun finally understood theyout of the entire building: bedrooms, cultivation room, guest rooms and the like were on the second floor, while the kitchen, bathroom, and utility room were on the first floor.
Besides that, the courtyard was quite spacious, almost half the size of a football field, suitable for him to practice saber techniques freely.
However, since no one had ever lived here before, Lu Yun had to do a big clean up right away.
It took almost four hours for Lu Yun to clean up all the rooms in the building and the courtyard.
By the time he finished, it had already gotten dark.
Lu Yun took a bath, changed into a purple star robe, and went directly to the cultivation room.

Conception: ughter Conception (First Rank 10%)
These past few months, he had been immersed in the Book Collection Pavilion and had not cultivated.
Except for the slight improvement in ughter Conception, the progress of other martial arts remained the same.
However, the energy value had increased somewhat.
The current panel showed that even without refining any pills, Lu Yun would still receive energy value credits, one every two days.
As he advanced in aptitude or realm in the future, the speed at which energy values umted would continue to increase.
Perhaps one day, Lu Yun would have an inexhaustible supply of energy without doing anything.
Thinking of this, Lu Yun’s heart couldn’t help but flutter.
However, as the level of martial arts progresses, the energy value required will increase. Will that day reallye?
Discarding the distractions in his mind, Lu Yun sits cross-legged on a white cushion, starting to concentrate.
Martial Arts Conception is closely rted to spiritual power, which lies within the Sea of Consciousness.
Lu Yun focuses his attention, letting his consciousness sink into the Sea of Consciousness.
Before long, a gray spacees into his ‘field of vision’.
The gray space seems empty, vast and borderless.
In the center of his ‘field of vision,’ gray mist fades, and a blood-colored ray of light appears.
Lu Yun concentrates all his attention, making his ‘field of vision’ clearer and moving closer to the blood-colored light.
Soon, he sees the full view of the blood-colored light.
Within the bloody light, a blood-colored lotus tform is born, surrounded by blood-colored light, which is particrly eye-catching in the gray space.
As Lu Yun’s ‘field of vision’ approaches the blood-colored lotus tform, a terrible aura of ughter rushes towards him, as if it’s a battlefield of thousands of soldiers and horses, with the sound of weapons shing, neighs of horses galloping, and roars of countless souls, everything making it hard not to shudder.
Soon, the blood-colored lotus tform erupts with a surge of blood-colored light, quickly absorbing the surrounding gray mist.
Lu Yun notices that the blood-colored lotus tform is constantly trembling, as if it’s starting to bloom.
Not knowing how much time has passed, the lotus flower blooms.
However, there is only one petal on the lotus tform.
The moment the blood lotus petal blooms, an overwhelming aura of ughter bursts forth, causing the gray space to shake, with numerous auras whistling towards it.
This gray space is the spiritual world of a martial artist, which is the Sea of Consciousness.
Lu Yun has learned about this from the books in the Book Collection Pavilion.
Before this, he knew nothing about the Sea of Consciousness.
However, after spending several months in the Book Collection Pavilion, he has learned a lot of martial artsmon sense, including the Sea of Consciousness.
Every martial artist has a Sea of Consciousness, but not every martial artist can open and enter the Sea of Consciousness space.
Only afterprehending a Martial Arts Conception can the Sea of Consciousness space be opened.
The blood-colored lotus tform is the condensation of ughter Conception.
When a petal blooms, it represents that the ughter Conception has reached the First Rank.
When the ughter Conception reaches the tenth rank, which isplete perfection, the blood lotus will fully bloom, with all ten petalspletely formed.
At that time, the true meaning can be manifested.
His ‘field of vision’ ispletely focused on the Blood Lotus.
Within an instant.
The scene before him suddenly changes, and he finds himself in a blood-colored world, seemingly covered by blood.
The ground is in disarray, filled with the aura of destruction, ughter, and violence, lingering constantly.
The sky is a deep shade of red, as if it ispletely enveloped by the blood light.
Lu Yun finds himself transformed into a blood-colored lotus tform, situated above this blood-colored sky, constantly absorbing the auras of destruction, ughter, and frenzy, and growing stronger.
One day.
Half a year.
Ten years…
Time continues to flow, and the growth of the blood-colored lotus tform appears to be slow, with only one petal blooming.
Many yearster, in this chaotd, blood-colored iron hooves suddenly gallop by.
Blood-colored horses, blood-colored armor, the blood-colored world.
Two groups of people and horses engage in fiercebat, with the sound of fighting shaking the heavens, and deep red blood sttering across the earth.
The already blood-red sky and earth be even heavier, with swirling auras of destruction, ughter, and frenzy growing thicker.
And the blood-colored lotus tform rooted above the sky blooms its second and third petals.
After a long time has passed.
The blood-colored earth, with blood-colored galloping horses and towering, powerful Demon Beasts, appear.
In this terrifying aura of destruction and ughter, both sides gopletely insane, ceaselessly fighting, with no respite or reason, eventually being engulfed by the blood-red aura.
The blood-colored lotus tform in the sky blooms another blood-colored lotus flower.
As more petals bloom, the atmosphere of ughter in this world bes even more intense and horrifying.
From time to time, different creatures enter, constantly fighting each other, and ultimately turn into nourishment for the blooming and flourishing blood-colored lotus tform..
