The pure law of star released by the statue caught Austin's attention.
He was fully immersed in comprehending every little bit of it.
"Leader Austin..."
Enoch called out several times, but Austin didn't respond.
'Is it possible that... he discovered something about our ancestor?
It's impossible, ' he thought. 'Leader Austin is not a member of our clan. He does not have our
bloodline.'
A sudden thought popped into his mind. There was a legend that had passed down from generation to
generation in the Wu Clan.
It stated that the Star Skill was hidden inside Harvey's statue.
Only members of the Wu Clan with pure blood, remarkable comprehension ability or great luck could
sense and acquire this skill.
Enoch fixed his gaze upon Austin with visible confusion.
'I don't think so. It's impossible for an outsider to master the Star Skill.'
Enoch ruled out that possibility.
'I am a premium-grade divine god. Apart from it, I am the descendant of our ancestor. I have spent a
considerable amount of time standing in front of our ancestor's statue and trying to sensing the Star
Skill but failed.
This young man is an outsider and he is just a preliminary-grade divine god. There is no way that he
could sense the Star Skill.' Enoch was sure of it. After all, it was really hard to believe that an outsider
could perceive their skill.
'What's that?'
While Austin was in the middle of comprehending the law of star released by the statue, he found that
there was a space inside the statue.
It was littered with boundless shining stars.
There, he saw a middle-aged man staring at him in the sky.
'He is the ancestor of the Wu Clan, Harvey Wu.'
Austin recognized the middle-aged man instantly for the latter looked exactly like the statue.
"You are not my descendant,"
Harvey murmured after he surveyed Austin for a while.
"Nice to meet you, sir. I am Austin Lin," Austin respectfully greeted as soon as his presence was
recognized.
He knew that Harvey was thoroughly examining him from head to toe. Austin felt terrified, and his hair
stood on end as if he was before a ferocious beast.
Although the middle-aged man was just a wisp of broken soul, Austin knew that he was still a
formidable opponent.
After all, Harvey was one of the top four greatest masters in the Sea of Chaos during his peak.
Austin didn't expect that he would see firsthand the great figure's soul.
"Since you're not my offspring, how did you get here? Answer my question honestly," Harvey asked
flatly, his gaze bore through Austin.
He seemed calm, but there was a certain intensity in his eyes that would make anyone spill the truth.
He stood dignified and domineering.
If he found that Austin lied to him, he might make a move against the young man.
"Sir, I can explain all this," Austin replied in a hurry.
He almost stammered before the formidable figure's presence.
The Star Palace was Harvey's domain, so Austin didn't want to provoke him.
Therefore, he explained to Harvey in detail how he arrived to the Star Palace.
Harvey paused for a while.
"I see you are telling the truth. I appreciate your honesty," he said.
With his level of strength, he immediately knew that Austin was telling the truth.
"I didn't expect that our clan would be so weak now and end up like this,"
Harvey said with a sigh, looking disappointed.
When he was still in charge, the Wu Clan was powerful and prosperous.
But now his clan had fallen. Their glory days had long been over.
"Humph! You got my attention now, Marlon," Harvey seethed.
"How dare you slaughter my people and attack our ancestral land?" His eyes was gleaming with
determination.
Stars visibly appeared in his eyes.
A formidable star power came out from his body, which sent a chill down Austin's spine.
Then, he looked at Austin from head to toe.
"Wait!
Did I see it right?
Amazing!
Young man, you have acquired the Chaotic Heaven Body? !"
Harvey exclaimed as he stared at Austin in utter shock.
"Yes, sir. I do have the Chaotic Heaven Body,"
Austin replied honestly.
"No wonder you can comprehend the original chaotic law even though you are just a preliminary-grade
divine god. It turns out that you have obtained the Chaotic Heaven Body.
That's why my descendants couldn't sense my existence but you can. All this makes sense now."
Harvey nodded in approval.
"Young man, since you got the Chaotic Heaven Body, you are destined to achieve big things and you
will even be stronger than me someday,"
he went on.
"I'm flattered, sir,"
Austin responded humbly.
"Maybe we are destined to meet.
My descendants are getting weaker in terms of strength and talent.
Now, the beast race has their eyes on them. I'm worried about them."
Harvey frowned.
"It must be fate that brought us together.
I will entrust you with the Star Skill,"
he then announced to Austin.
"W-what? Really ?"
This took Austin by surprise. He couldn't contain his happiness after knowing such a legendary master
would impart the Star Skill to him.
According to Enoch, the Star Skill was one of the most brilliant, powerful martial arts skills in the Sea of
Chaos.
It was due to Star Skill that Harvey garnered his position as one of the top-notch masters in the Sea of
Chaos back then.
"But I need you to do something for me.
Protect my descendants.
What's more, if you find that some of my descendants have outstanding talent and pure blood, you will
teach them the Star Skill.
This is an important secret skill of our clan. I still hope my descendants can inherit it."
Harvey laid out his conditions. He was banking his clan's future on this young genius before him.
"Sir, I have a question,"
Austin asked.
"Go ahead,"
Harvey replied.
"If you want your descendant to inherit the Star Skill, you could personally pick someone and teach
him.
Why do you want me to do it for you?"
Austin questioned.
"Lad, you are a good man.
If it others were in your shoes, they would have already agreed and asked me to teach them the Star
Skill.
But you asked me this question. It proves that you are a trustworthy man," Harvey praised.
He felt assured with Austin; he proved himself to be genuine to his intentions.
"The Star Skill is difficult to master. If one wants to learn it, one needs to get the power of the stars into
his body.
A person with poor talent will not be able to learn it.
Otherwise, he would end up dead in the middle of his cultivation.
Moreover, when one practices the Star Skill, he needs someone by his side to guide him.
Throughout the cultivation, it's inevitable to run into problems in the process that will be unsolvable.
If you want to master the Star Skill, you will need my advice. It will take you a while to grasp it.
But my descendants can't even sense me, not to mention appear in front of me. And that's an important
prerequisite in order for me to impart this knowledge to them. It's practically impossible to teach them at
this rate,"
Harvey explained.
"I see."
Austin nodded, understanding why Harvey needed his presence to bridge the knowledge to his clan.
"Sir, I promise you that I will do my best to protect the Wu Clan,"
he determinedly vowed.
Austin yearned for the Star Skill.
Therefore, he agreed readily.
Moreover, he had already messed with the troops of the Beast City in order to protect the Wu Clan; and
he would definitely continue doing so.
"Very good. Young man, I am going to teach you the Star Skill.
Since you have acquired the Chaotic Heaven Body, it won't be difficult for you to master the Star Skill.
All right, then. Let's get started,"
Harvey stated.
