Judging from the surface, this is indeed the case.
Fang Yu turned his head and looked at Zhongchen again.
Just as Xu Jialu said, Zhongchen had no ability to perceive the outside world at this moment. He looked straight at the starry sky in the distance, with a red light, and his body was motionless like a statue.
Only the tattoo on the right arm corresponds to the scorpion pattern of the stars in the distant sky, absorbing the power therein.
What's the situation?
Fang Yu frowned slightly.
It has been a day or two since Zhongchen joined the Yuhua Sect, but it seems that he has never done this before.
Maybe it started in recent nights, but I was caught by Xu Jialu last night.
But...what is he doing?
Is this his unique cultivation method?
However, just like Xu Jialu said, Zhongchen looks something wrong now.
Red pupils, scorpion-shaped tattoos, and stars with the same shape as his tattoos in the distant sky... This is definitely not a normal practice method.
"Sect Master, what's going on with Senior Brother Zhongchen?" Xu Jialu asked in a low voice.
"I don't know either." Fang Yu shook his head gently and said.
"This is not a kind of evil cultivator's cultivation method, right?" Xu Jialu asked again.
Evil cultivation techniques?
Fang Yu glanced at Xu Jialu and shook his head.
In his cognitive ability, it is mainly to define whether a martial art is an evil practice method, which depends on how this technique is used.
All evil practices are basically behaviors that build one's own happiness on the pain of others and harm others for selfishness.
But Zhongchen's current appearance naturally does not belong to this ranks.
He just looked a little wrong and did not cause any substantial harm to anyone.
People should not behave like a person, and similarly, they should not behave like a person when practicing martial arts.
"Don't rush to make a conclusion first." Fang Yu said, "Precaution for a while."
After saying that, Fang Yu stepped back, found a good place, and sat down on the spot.
He is here to observe the changes in the end for a long time.
"You should go back to practice first." Fang Yu said to Xu Jialu, "I will continue to observe here."
"...Okay." Xu Jialu replied, turned his head to look at Zhongchen again, and then left.
Now, only Zhongchen and Fang Yu were left on the east coast of the island.
He was still standing on the shore at the end of the year, like a statue.
Fang Yu sat thirty meters behind him, silently observing the change in the state of Zhongchen.
Time passes slowly.
Throughout the whole process, we can clearly see that the end of the year is indeed constantly absorbing the power of the stars.
However, his aura did not change much.
Obviously, these absorbed star powers still need some time to refine.
The night was slowly dispelled by the white light.
When the stars in the distant sky became less obvious, Zhongchen was shocked.
The red light in his pupils dissipated, and his whole mind recovered.
However, the scorpion tattoo on the right arm was still shining with a faint light, just like the steel that turned red after burning.
"Dadada..."
Zhongchen heard the sound of footsteps and turned around, and saw Fang Yu walking forward with a smile on his face.
"...Master." Zhongchen's face was calm and he spoke, "You have seen it all."
"Well, I've seen you all night." Fang Yu nodded and said, "But it's a pity that I didn't see anything."
Zhongchen's face remained unchanged.
"Are you a martial art? I think you seem to be absorbing the power of the stars in the distance." Fang Yu asked.
"This is a unique skill from where I come from." Zhongchen said slowly, "Use the power of stars to provide for the body and recover from the injury."
"What is this called a martial art?" Fang Yu asked in surprise.
Zhongchen looked at Fang Yu, was silent for two seconds, and said, "Star Swallowing Art."
Star-swallowing skills?
"Sounds very domineering." Fang Yu praised.
"This is not a good practice." Zhongchen said.
"Why do you say that?" Fang Yu asked.
"Using the power of stars is the original sin." Zhongchen turned his head again, looked at the sky, and said, "Before I joined the Yuhua Sect, I told you... I will bring a very terrible enemy."
Fang Yu's eyes narrowed slightly and looked at Zhongchen.
"My origin, and the Star Swallowing Ability... are the root of misfortune." Zhongchen said.
His tone was still calm and uninterrupted.
But Fang Yu could hear from it that the helplessness and a feeling of sadness like accepting one's fate.
"Since you saw me performing the Star-Swallowing Ability today... Then I will leave here." Zhongchen turned around again and said to Fang Yu.
"Why do you want to leave?" Fang Yu asked with a raised brow.
"There are many young children in the door, and I don't want to implicate them." Zhongchen said, "And... the time is over, and those guys should find me again."
"They are looking for you, are they going to kill you?" Fang Yu asked.
"No, something more cruel than killing." Zhongchen said.
Fang Yu's eyes moved slightly.
"I will leave Yuhua Sect now. Thank you for your help during this period." Zhongchen said, and was about to leave.
"I haven't agreed yet." Fang Yu said, "Why are you leaving?"
Zhongchen looked at Fang Yu, frowned slightly, and said, "I said..."
"You are now a formal disciple of Yuhua Sect. If you want to leave, you must obtain the consent of me, the head of the sect." Fang Yu said.
"I have already said the reason..." Zhongchen said.
"How terrible are the terrible enemies? Are there any palace masters of the Heavenly Palace and the great masters of the Yin-Yang clan terrible?" Fang Yu asked with a smile.
"I'm not sure which one of them is stronger," replied Zhongchen, "but those guys are the most terrifying to me."
"Then you have to stay even more. You can't defeat them by yourself." Fang Yu said, "But if you are in the Yuhua Sect, if they come to the door, you will be more than you."
Zhongchen looked at Fang Yu, and could see obvious changes on his face that had been calm.
"I'm not very good at speaking, I'm just...thank you."
Zhongchen bent down and bowed to Fang Yu.
"No, it is the responsibility of the head to protect the disciples." Fang Yu said, "You can stay here with peace of mind. As for the situation you are worried about, it will not happen."
Zhongchen raised his head, took a deep breath, and said, "I understand, Master."
"I'll go back and rest first, you can do whatever you want."
After Fang Yu finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Zhongchen looked at Fang Yu's back as he left, but he didn't change his sight for a long time.
...
"Sect Master... How is it like?" Xu Jialu ran to the back mountain early in the morning and waited for Fang Yu to come back.
"Nothing is wrong. He is indeed performing a skill." Fang Yu said, "It is called the Star Swallowing Art."
"Star Swallowing Ability? It sounds like..." Xu Jialu's face changed slightly, and he said, "Senior Brother Zhongchen..."
"Maybe he didn't trust me enough, or he had other concerns. He didn't say more about himself, but he should take the initiative to say it in the future." Fang Yu said, "Don't ask again before this."
