High Martial Arts Era 396
by adminChapter 396: Farewell
Li Yuan, Fang Hai, and Lan Te the Demigod were the only ones who knew about Dongfang Ji’s departure.
Although the Wan Mo civilization had suffered a heavy blow from the last battle, and other civilizations were terrified, making it almost impossible for the Seven Star civilization to be invaded again in the short term, it was still necessary to be cautious.
Dongfang Ji’s soul lamp had been extinguished, but its location was only known to Fang Hai and Lan Te the Demigod.
Moreover, Ye An the Demigod was safe and sound. From now on, as long as other Demigods in the civilization saw him, they would know Dongfang Ji was alive and wouldn’t suspect anything for the time being.
After returning from the space outside the flying star.
“You’re leaving tomorrow?” Lan Te the Demigod was taken aback by Li Yuan’s words: “So soon? Why not stay in the civilization for a while longer and cultivate?”
“I’ve been in the Feitian Realm long enough. If I continue to cultivate, my strength won’t improve significantly, and my cultivation speed will become slower and slower, even reaching a bottleneck.” Li Yuan said: “The Nine Leaf World might have what I’m looking for.”
This was Li Yuan’s honest answer.
His goal was the Three-Rank Nine-Star Pulse, which had extremely high requirements for things like Law comprehension, soul will, etc. … even if Li Yuan possessed the Heart Temple.
But to make his spiritual awakening limit reach 100%, he first had to break through to the 50-level Xu Shen level of soul realm, or even higher.
The transformation of soul will was extremely important, not only through the growth of visualization techniques but also through external exploration, tempering, and mental growth.
As for external resources?
The Seven Star civilization was too small. Li Yuan couldn’t get the core treasures he needed to cultivate the Nine-Layered Star Technique, “Wan Ying Xu Kong” … and he was almost invincible within the civilization, so there was no pressure at all.
If he left the plane to explore the star seams… it was better to go directly to the Nine Leaf World.
“Li Yuan, go ahead and explore,” Fang Hai said: “The Nine Leaf World is full of dangers, but with your personality, it would be strange if you were always afraid to explore.”
Fang Hai had watched Li Yuan grow up all the way.
The treasure hunt in the inter-plane realm, the battle in the Mingxu Star Boundary, sweeping through the second-level star boundary, desperately awakening the second-rank eight-star pulse, the Lan Tie Star crisis, and the just-concluded Wan Mo invasion… Fang Hai knew Li Yuan’s character very well, he was loyal and righteous.
But at the same time, he was also incredibly hardworking and pursued the ultimate limit of cultivation.
Otherwise, Li Yuan wouldn’t have desperately become a Demigod-level soul and then worked hard to awaken the eight-star pulse.
The Nine Leaf World was full of great opportunities.
“Nine Leaves and Nine Mountains.”
“It contains great opportunities, but also contains a crisis for our Seven Star civilization.” Fang Hai said: “The reason why the Teacher is so eager to leave is actually related to the little bit of truth about the Ancient Tomb of the Fallen Immortals that he knows.”
Fang Hai and Dongfang Ji had talked separately, and their understanding of the Ancient Tomb of the Fallen Immortals was beyond that of others.
“The truth?” Lan Te the Demigod was stunned.
“There’s a saying, Li Yuan, you said it back then.” Fang Hai said: “Becoming a Xu Shen, even becoming a True God… can make our Seven Star civilization temporarily safe, but it cannot solve the crisis of the Ancient Tomb of the Fallen Immortals once and for all.”
Li Yuan nodded. This was one of the reasons why he had been pursuing the limit of his Star Pulse.
It was fine if he didn’t know about the Nine-Star Pulse or the Ten-Star Pulse.
Now that he knew, he would naturally do his best.
“The Teacher has the same point of view.”
“He has left enough trump cards and back-ups for the civilization, ensuring that the civilization will not be lost.” Fang Hai said: “If he stayed in the Mortal Realm, becoming a True God would be extremely easy for him in the future… but the chances of becoming a Divine God would be much lower.”
Li Yuan and Lan Te the Demigod both nodded.
Divine God?
In the entire Mortal Realm, tens of thousands of dimensional planes, over a long period of time, most of them had never even produced a True God, let alone a Divine God.
“Li Yuan, the things you want to do, the Teacher also wants to do.” Fang Hai looked at Li Yuan: “The Teacher also longs to become a Divine God, and if he can come back then, he can try to completely resolve the hidden danger of the civilization.”
“Secondly.”
“A civilization in a plane rises and falls. Up to now, as far as we know, in the entire Mortal Realm, the oldest civilization with historical records doesn’t exceed ten thousand years…” Fang Hai said: “Older civilizations have either been destroyed by other civilizations or suffered natural disasters.”
“There is no eternally prosperous civilization.”
“Like now, the Wan Mo civilization fears us, and the Xianxu civilization hopes to maintain peace with us, not because we have many strong people, but because of the Teacher and you.” Fang Hai said: “Especially the Teacher and you, your talents are so strong that they can make any True God look sideways.”
“Principal, you’re not bad either.” Li Yuan said quickly.
“I know my own limitations, I’m not as good as the Teacher, and I’m even less good than you.” Fang Hai said with emotion: “But even us, we can’t live forever.”
“True God, only lives for thirty thousand years.”
“Our Seven Star civilization only has seven life planets. It’s already incredibly fortunate that the Teacher and you appeared in a short period of time.” Fang Hai said: “We must also work hard to make more ‘ordinary geniuses’ who can become Demigods and Xu Shens in the future.”
“If our Seven Star civilization has thousands of Demigods and a few Xu Shens, even if we don’t have a top-level powerhouse like the Teacher… we still wouldn’t be afraid of any invasion from outside.”
Li Yuan understood what Fang Hai meant.
Dongfang Ji had said similar things.
No one can live forever. The strength of a civilization can rely on one person in the short term, but it cannot rely on a single person forever.
Even Divine Gods can only live for three hundred thousand years. The Xianxu civilization has stood in the Mortal Realm for millions of years, relying on generations of strong individuals.
The birth of a large number of strong individuals requires a large enough population base.
“Becoming a True God can push a plane to evolve, causing the number of life planets within the plane to explode.”
“If you become a Divine God, in hundreds of thousands of years, it will be enough to push the plane to evolve several times, making the number of life planets in our plane surpass that of the Xianxu civilization.” Fang Hai said: “At that time, the entire civilization will have enough foundation to compete for the birth of True Gods from generation to generation.”
Li Yuan nodded slightly.
In the Mortal Realm, if a civilization has a Xu Shen sitting in charge all the time, then basically no one will invade. If there is a True God sitting in charge all the time… then it is an absolute hegemonic civilization.
“Dongfang Leader went first.”
“I can’t fall behind.” Li Yuan laughed.
When he was a Source Warrior, Li Yuan had this kind of awareness.
When the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up, and in the Seven Star civilization, he was the tall person.
To strengthen and sustain the civilization and completely solve the “crisis of the Ancient Tomb of the Fallen Immortals”, if he didn’t step forward, who would?
Dongfang Leader was undoubtedly powerful, but ordinary people still need to walk on two legs.
How could he rely solely on one person?
If that were the case, it would have been in vain for Dongfang Leader to make such an effort.
“Li Yuan, with your strength, it will be easy to pass the tests of the Nine Leaf World, but the Ancient Tomb of the Fallen Immortals contains many great secrets, even the Teacher can’t see the full picture.” Fang Hai said: “In short, be careful.”
“Okay.” Li Yuan nodded heavily.
As long as he was alive, there were infinite possibilities.
呼!
Fang Hai flipped his palm, and a glass ancient lamp emitting fiery light appeared in his palm: “Li Yuan, this is the soul lamp. Condense your divine consciousness into the lamp芯.”
“When you go to the Nine Leaf World, we need to know whether you are alive or dead.”
“Okay.” Li Yuan had already refined a soul lamp once before, so he was familiar with it and quickly completed the process.
…
Watching Li Yuan leave.
Lan Te the Demigod sighed: “What a dashing spirit. Looking at Li Yuan, it’s like looking at Dongfang in his younger days, both of them are fearless, full of vigor and fighting spirit.”
“Lan Te Senior, you’re not old either.” Fang Hai laughed.
“Compared to you, I’m old.” Lan Te the Demigod sighed: “It’s just that you, Dongfang has left, and Li Yuan probably won’t stay for too long… it’s hard that you can only stay here.”
Lan Te the Demigod had already guessed Dongfang Ji’s arrangements.
“The Teacher and Li Yuan went out to explore, which is also risking life and death, how can the path to becoming a Divine God be so easy?” Fang Hai shook his head: “I’m staying in the civilization, and there’s actually no danger.”
Lan Te the Demigod didn’t say anything more.
Every strong person, if they have the opportunity, who wouldn’t want to go to the Divine Realm to explore and see the wider world?
…
In a city on the flying star.
“Master.” Sang Qiu the Demigod said respectfully.
After so long, she had flown back to the flying star from Lan Tie Star along the star sea.
“嗯.” Li Yuan looked at her and said: “From now on, you will stay permanently on the flying star, and follow the Leader’s orders, and you cannot leave the flying star without any unexpected circumstances. Do you understand?”
“Yes.” Sang Qiu the Demigod said.
Heart Soul Control had many flaws, the biggest one being that once the individual dies, the servant would regain freedom.
Therefore, servants under Heart Soul Control were difficult to trust absolutely, and were mostly used as undercover agents to infiltrate hostile forces.
That way, even if the master died, they wouldn’t suffer much loss.
This was also the reason why those alien guest disciples and controlled alien Demigods were all placed on the flying star… as the core of the Seven Star civilization, the flying star had the strongest military force, and could suppress those aliens at any time.
“Legend has it.”
“The Divine Gods in the Divine Realm, some terrifying beings who have comprehended the Dao of the Laws, hold the Dao in their hands, and can create perfect Heart Soul Control techniques.” Li Yuan thought to himself: “Once the secret technique is used, it is imprinted deep in the servant’s soul, then they can achieve life and death together.”
If the master dies, the servant will also die.
That’s absolute control.
Unfortunately, even among Divine Gods, very few could cultivate it, because not every Divine God is good at soul mysteries.
Therefore, as far as Li Yuan knew, followers were more common in the Divine Realm… some strong individuals made oaths to pursue a stronger individual, which provided some constraints, and they weren’t as unacceptable as servants.
…
Returning to Blue Star, Li Yuan’s family had already rushed to Kunlun Martial Arts University from all over Xia Country when they received the news.
“Closed-door cultivation? Five years, or even ten years?” When a group of people heard Li Yuan’s words, they couldn’t help but discuss it.
Nine Leaves and Nine Mountains was a secret, so it couldn’t be passed on.
Therefore, Li Yuan didn’t tell his family the truth, he only said that he was about to go into closed-door cultivation for a long time.
According to the experience left by Dongfang Ji and Fang Hai, the first time exploring the Nine Leaf World usually took one or two years.
During this time, it was impossible to contact the outside world.
Li Yuan estimated that even though his strength far surpassed the Leader and the Principal back then, and things might change, ten years should be enough.
“So long?” Chen Hui couldn’t help but say: “Can’t you come back in between?”
“Big Brother, can’t you even communicate? The battle on the flying star just ended!” Li Qianqian also said: “The battle was won, it’s said that Dongfang Ji Senior was extremely powerful, do you need to fight so hard?”
As Li Yuan’s family, their information channels were more informed than most Feitian Warriors.
They also knew a lot about the recent battle that erupted on the flying star.
“Auntie, I have to go.” Li Yuan also felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
But seeing Dongfang Ji Senior step onto the path without hesitation, and seeing the Principal stay behind, there was no hesitation in Li Yuan’s heart.
“What are you talking about.” Li Changzhou frowned: “Xia Yuan is now one of the highest leaders of the civilization, how can he only consider his small family when doing things? It’s just ten years.”
“Xia Yuan.”
“Go ahead, you’ve left behind so many treasures, you’ve left behind dozens of Feitian puppets, and we can also contact several Demigods at any time… I’m here at home, there’s nothing to worry about, don’t worry about anything.” Li Changzhou looked at Li Yuan: “You’re strong, I can’t help you with your cultivation, and I can’t give you any pointers.”
“But I know one thing, since you’ve become one of the leaders of the civilization, then do what a leader should do.” Li Changzhou said: “Once you’ve chosen a path, you can’t back down.”
Li Yuan nodded.
With his uncle here, Li Yuan had never been worried about his family, Li Changzhou rarely gave Li Yuan any trouble.
As for many relatives from earlier years, not all of them didn’t want to find Li Yuan… they were all stopped by Li Changzhou.
… Li Yuan also went to see Bai Shan the Demigod in Xia Country’s capital. The two of them talked for a long time.
After making all the arrangements.
On June 19, 2055, the Blue Star Commander, Li Yuan, left Blue Star again.
When he returned, it might be one or two years, or it might be much longer.
