Chapter 248: The Power of Supreme Star Art

Not long ago, when "Earth Star Pulse True Explanation" was cultivated to First Rank Level 8, Li Yuan only felt that it was a bit stronger than at First Rank Level 7, and his sensing of Earth Source Force fluctuations was clearer.

But there was no real qualitative change.

However, the moment Li Yuan imprinted 116,640 and the star art reached a brand-new level... the more than 100,000 Life Stars that had been imprinted with star marks, which were still somewhat scattered, seemed to have reached some kind of limit.

Quantitative change produces qualitative change.

In an instant, the entire perfect star pulse erupted completely, which also caused Li Yuan's perception of the outside world to suddenly undergo a earth-shaking change... transformation.

"This?"

"Perfect star pulse?" Li Yuan was shocked in his heart.

He operated the star pulse involuntarily. After a long time, as Li Yuan gradually adapted, the hazy radiance exuded by the star pulse finally converged completely.

But it was only the radiance that converged; the supreme star art hidden on the star pulse was still maintaining operation.

"Supreme star art."

"Earth lineage." Li Yuan operated this star art and could clearly sense the subtle changes born in the surrounding heaven and earth fluctuations.

Very profound.

It made Li Yuan feel beautiful and comfortable from the bottom of his heart.

The Earth Source Force fluctuations that Li Yuan had already sensed quite clearly before were now several times clearer at this moment... if the past was nearsightedness, then now it is like wearing glasses.

"In this state, I want to comprehend the mysteries of heaven and earth nature of the Earth lineage, which is much easier than in the past," Li Yuan was shocked in his heart. "Truly incredible."

Of course, Li Yuan understood in his heart.

Whether it is Flying Heaven level spiritual sense or this 'supreme star art' that assists cultivation, in essence, they still belong to external forces and are bridges to help comprehend the mysteries of heaven and earth nature... how far one can go still depends on personal comprehension.

Just like Flying Heaven martial artists, all of them have Flying Heaven level spiritual sense, but many of them also find it difficult to cross into the Sixth-Stage skill.

"If I were to describe it, comparing comprehending the mysteries of heaven and earth nature to learning," Li Yuan thought to himself.

"If I didn't have Flying Heaven level spiritual sense, I would be equivalent to being in an ordinary school, where no matter the teaching staff or the surrounding classmates, they are all very average."

"With Flying Heaven level spiritual sense, I am a 'key student' in a top school, with the best teaching staff."

"And supreme star art... is equivalent to inviting the best teacher in the country to teach individually!" Li Yuan felt excited in his heart.

Although how far one can go still depends on personal effort.

But in a person's growth, the external environment is crucial.

"Cultivating this nine-layer star art, it seems not like those powerful killing star arts that can make the user erupt with earth-shattering terrifying power, but it can provide continuous assistance, making my speed of comprehending the mysteries of heaven and earth nature faster," Li Yuan was full of anticipation in his heart. "I can achieve Sixth-Stage skill faster, and even... cross into the Seventh-Stage Law Gate."

Before, he estimated it would take several months to reach Fifth-Stage High Tier... now it seems it will only be faster.

"Moreover."

"This kind of auxiliary nine-layer star art is just said to be not good at fighting, not that it is completely ineffective for fighting," a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Li Yuan's mouth.

Swish!

The Black Star Spear suddenly appeared in Li Yuan's hand, followed by the long spear suddenly erupting.

Under the infusion of Source Force, the long spear instantly bloomed with countless starlight, and the spear light's power was vast, making this mysterious stone room like broad daylight again.

"Clearly, my skill hasn't changed, but the heaven and earth force drawn is much stronger than before, at least 30% stronger," Li Yuan judged vaguely.

The mystery of drawing heaven and earth force cannot be accurately captured.

But one point can be fully confirmed—in the state of operating "Earth Star Pulse True Explanation", the power of Li Yuan's Star Spear Technique drawing heaven and earth force was much greater.

"Compatibility."

"Through the star art, my compatibility with the Earth lineage is higher," Li Yuan had a faint realization. "So, the power of all kinds of true meaning ultimate moves I use in this category will become stronger?"

It's just like a crocodile's combat power in water, which must be much more fierce than on land.

Similarly.

Li Yuan's super-high compatibility with the Earth lineage makes him not only comprehend 'Star True Meaning' much faster, but the power of using corresponding true meaning killing moves will also be greater.

"As expected of a supreme star art," Li Yuan exclaimed to himself. "So fierce."

Li Yuan calculated based on the many messages he knew. Just the slight combat power bonus attached to "Earth Star Pulse True Explanation" is enough to rival many triple-layer and quadruple-layer star arts that are good at killing at the same level.

"This is only First Rank Level 9," Li Yuan had a hint of anticipation in his eyes. "If it can be cultivated to Second Rank Level 9, what level would it reach?"

The "Earth Star Pulse True Explanation" gifted by Demigod Baishan is incomplete, with only the first two ranks of 'Star Mark Cultivation Method'.

Higher? Demigod Baishan didn't have it.

"Enough for now."

"Any star art, whether it is a single-layer star art or a nine-layer star art, a Source Martial can cultivate at most to the Second Rank, a Flying Heaven martial artist can cultivate to the Third Rank, and a demigod can cultivate to the Fourth Rank," Li Yuan thought to himself.

It is a one-to-one correspondence.

Because only when the life layer constantly transforms, and even truly leaps, can the Life Stars in the body transform... and can the same star art be cultivated to a higher level.

……"Let's begin."

"See if I can cultivate "Earth Star Pulse True Explanation" to the Second Rank limit." Li Yuan waved his hand to put away the long spear and sat down cross-legged.

Immediately, he continued to cultivate the star art.

If one wants to improve a star art from First Rank to Second Rank, it is to imprint stronger and more profound star art star marks on the Life Stars that have already been imprinted with star marks on this star pulse...

Imprinting star marks requires extremely high requirements for Life Stars, and also extremely high requirements for spiritual sense and comprehension of profound mysteries.

"So complicated."

"Second-rank star marks are much more complicated and cumbersome than first-rank star marks," Li Yuan felt a bit of a headache after just a little pondering.

The complexity of second-rank star marks is at least hundreds of times that of first-rank star marks.

When cultivating first-rank star marks, Li Yuan condensed them successfully in a very short time, and then constantly imprinted them on the Life Stars.

But now?

Just understanding the many pulse structure compositions of second-rank star marks is very difficult. It is not just that the structure is more complicated, but it contains many profound fluctuations.

Imitate? It's not just about looking like it, but truly having spirit.

Time passed, one hour, two hours, three hours...

Gradually.

Li Yuan sensed the many special features of second-rank star marks. It contains some applications regarding the mysteries of heaven and earth nature of the Earth lineage.

"What is involved is the heaven and earth mysteries concerning the Earth lineage."

"My comprehension of heaven and earth nature mysteries... is still very shallow," Li Yuan thought thoughtfully.

Attempted to construct the second-rank star marks of "Earth Star Pulse True Explanation".

Gave Li Yuan brand-new insights, and also seemed to open a door to a new world.

"In a short time."

"I'm afraid I can't cultivate it successfully," Li Yuan thought to himself. "No wonder in the Martial Hall database, a manual left by Senior Dongfang Ji once wrote."

"If you want to cultivate powerful star arts, star pulses are the foundation, but if you want to cultivate them successfully, having powerful star pulses is not enough... there will be requirements for skills, spiritual sense, body quality, and many other aspects," Li Yuan recalled silently. "Some extremely powerful star arts even need to be assisted by many external objects to have hope of being cultivated."

At this moment, Li Yuan also understood a bit why the power of these supreme star arts is so terrifying.

The requirements are shockingly high.

"Can't cultivate in a short time, which means my accumulation is not enough, so let's put it aside for now."

"Wait until body quality and spiritual sense improve further, and skill level is higher, then come back to continue cultivating "Earth Star Pulse True Explanation" Second Rank," Li Yuan made a decision.

It is not so easy to cultivate a supreme star art to the Second Rank.

In reality, how long has Li Yuan been a Second Rank Source Martial?

Two or three days.

These few days, what Li Yuan transformed was only body quality and spiritual sense, while the most critical skill level remained at a standstill.

"At the First Rank, I can be called the strongest First Rank lifeform of the entire civilization."

"But now among Source Martial, it's far from it," Li Yuan thought to himself. "Take it step by step. Compared to seniors like Yu Jinghe and Wuma Nong, I am still far behind."

"In terms of body quality, they are all Second Rank limits."

"In terms of the number of awakened star pulses, they are probably five star pulses or even six star pulses."

"In terms of skill level, they are already at the Sixth-Stage."

In a word.

In terms of talent, Li Yuan is indeed top-tier in the entire Seven-Star civilization... but if he wants to catch up with the powerful existences among the Second Rank, Li Yuan cannot slack off and must work hard.

……

Walking out of the mysterious stone room.

"Estimate, I will have to stay in the inner world for another period of time," Li Yuan pondered. "Wait until I am ready to leave the inner world, then return to this stone room to try cultivating."

A Second Rank Source Martial wants to cultivate "Earth Star Pulse True Explanation", which must be assisted by Earth Divine Crystals.

After leaving the inner world, Five Elements Divine Crystals are still very precious.

Not long after.

Li Yuan followed the bottom of the canyon away from the stone room and quietly left from the other end of the canyon, but did not disturb the ordinary Source Martial like Tong Guan who were stationed here... Li Yuan didn't want to tell them about the secret of the stone room for the time being.

But as soon as he left the stone room, Li Yuan had already passed the relevant information about the stone room to 'Wuma Nong' via the communicator.

After all, Li Yuan would use the stone room at most one more time, but as the core of a large-scale source crystal mine, the stone room might be used for a long time.

"If it can really be used for a long time."

"Having such a treasure land is beneficial to the entire civilization," Li Yuan looked at it very indifferently.

Just like the high-level officials of the civilization will constantly help themselves and gift themselves a large amount of precious resources for free.

Then, when one's own ability is sufficient, one should naturally make contributions.

……

Lieyu Star Realm, war fortress.

"There are no Five Elements Divine Crystals under that large-scale source crystal mine, but it hides a mysterious stone room? Cultivating in it for a long time catches up to one-tenth the efficiency of cultivating using Five Elements Divine Crystals?" When Wuma Nong and Yu Jinghe received this news, they were all shocked.

Their vision is different, and they instantly understood—Treasure Land!!

This is a super treasure land.

It seems the efficiency is not high enough, but the key is 'long-term use'. Five Elements Divine Crystals are Fourth-Stage treasures... the quantity in the entire Seven-Star civilization treasury is very small.

Like Demigod Baishan taking out one piece for Li Yuan, it is already a heavy gift.

Such a treasure land, if it can be used for a long time, its value is immeasurable.

"Must report immediately."

"Report it," Wuma Nong and Yu Jinghe immediately reported to higher levels.

……

"What?"

"There is such a treasure land?"

"Is this really just a large-scale source crystal mine?" The high-level officials of the Seven-Star civilization responsible for this battle were all shocked when they received this news, and even more incredulous.

Quickly, these high-level officials notified other demigods and star lords in the civilization... and convened a meeting.

Other demigods and star lords knew about it and were also surprised.

"Find out clearly."

"Whether the 'Five Elements Divine Crystal energy' contained in this mysterious stone room is one-time, or whether it can continue to recover after martial artists absorb it... must find out clearly."

"If it is the former, then this stone room is essentially just a piece of Five Elements Divine Crystal, at most larger... if it is the latter, then the value is immeasurable."

"Hope it is the latter."

"As expected of a Divine Ruin," these demigods and star lords of the Seven-Star civilization were all sighing with emotion.

"Everyone." A cold voice rang out: "If it is really confirmed to have renewable functions, don't forget Li Yuan's credit. He is the discoverer... and he also cleared the obstacles in the inner world."

"Haha, Fang Hai, don't worry."

"Definitely won't treat him badly."

"As long as we can finally occupy the inner world and confirm the value of the stone room, naturally his rewards won't be less," other demigods and star lords all laughed.

"By the way."

"A friend of mine in the Gu Yue Divine Kingdom... sent me a message that Mintian Hou is likely to want to start a war, and he has already mobilized quite a bit of power into the Lieyu Star Realm," a demigod suddenly opened his mouth.

As demigods standing at the peak of the civilization, they have longer lifespans and can go to many star realms to explore mysterious places.

It is very normal to have friends from alien civilizations.

"Want to start a full-scale war?"

"Just a Mintian Hou? Does he deserve it?"

"Then let's fight!"

"This Divine Ruin, only the tip of the iceberg revealed, first Demigod Demigod Yan Cheng obtained 'Demigod Bloodline', later Li Yuan discovered 'Divine Crystal Stone Room' treasure land... if we can swallow the entire ruin treasure, I can't imagine how much harvest we can have."

"Fight! If Mintian Hou wants to fight, then accompany him to fight," numerous demigods and star lords spoke one after another.

The Seven-Star civilization stands among many civilizations, with hundreds of years of continuous wars. Almost all demigods and star lords have survived countless bloody storms and lived through one battle after another.

"Demigod Demigod Yan Cheng, you have no opinion, right."

"Haha, what opinion can I have? I have long said that everything regarding this inner world... is handed over to the Alliance, I have no complaints," the Lieyan Family's only demigod ancestor 'Demigod Demigod Yan Cheng' said so.

"Good."

"Mobilize another 5,000 First Rank martial artists to enter the inner world to repeatedly explore. Additionally, tell Rudnev to prepare to participate in the war," a demigod with extremely high status gave the final order.

Rudnev.

The number one Source Martial of the Seven-Star civilization!

……

Lieyu Star Realm, war fortress.

Inside the super-large conference room.

"Rudnev is preparing to come," Wuma Nong said softly. "The high-level officials have received accurate information that the Gu Yue Divine Kingdom is preparing for a full-scale war... the Alliance high-level officials are preparing to dispatch a large amount of power to enter."

"Full-scale war?"

"A full-scale war is about to break out?" Yan Yunhu and Yan Junling were all somewhat shocked when they received this news.

"Rudnev?"

"That pervert is also coming?" Tavares and Abbott were equally shocked.

Their points of concern were different.

"Rudnev?" A hint of light flashed in Yu Jinghe's eyes. He instantly recalled the sparring with the other party a few years ago, and he was defeated very miserably.

Now, a few years later, Yu Jinghe considers himself to have become even more powerful, but he still has no certainty of winning against the other party.

……

Li Yuan, who caused the turmoil of the civilization's high-level officials because of his report, did not have this self-awareness.

After leaving the mysterious stone room.

Li Yuan did not delay much and flew rapidly to the Divine Palace ruins at the core of the inner world.

Xiong Ze and Keros had been guarding the periphery of the Divine Palace ruins with more than twenty Source Martial.

It was precisely because they were worried that Gu Yue Divine Kingdom experts would sneak into the Divine Palace ruins.

Arriving at the periphery of the Divine Palace ruins, Li Yuan waited for about another hour before two figures appeared in his field of vision.

"Alicia, Si Feng." Li Yuan looked at the two who 'arrived late' and smiled. "How is it?"

Alicia and Si Feng looked at each other and nodded.

"Li Yuan, we confirmed it according to what you said in the message and arrived directly at that canyon stone room," Si Feng said quite excitedly. "There were no more obstacles along the way, and those black alien beasts you mentioned did not actively attack again."

"That's good." Li Yuan couldn't help but nod.

After passing the information about the stone room to Wuma Nong, Li Yuan also passed it directly to Alicia and Si Feng.

Because both of them are members of the Starfire Martial Hall, they are naturally more trusted by Li Yuan.

The reason for telling them.

Was to let them try, once they descended to the bottom of the valley, whether they would encounter black alien beast attacks again... the result was very ideal, perhaps because the leaders of those alien beasts had been killed by Li Yuan.

Si Feng and Alicia arrived at the Divine Crystal stone room according to Li Yuan's guidance, and did not encounter attacks.

"I have already passed the test results back to the war base," Alicia also said. "However, we have no way to confirm whether the Five Elements Divine Crystal energy in the stone room is renewable."

"The instruments carried by Tong Guan and the others now cannot test it either," Alicia said.

"No matter, the higher-ups should rearrange it," Li Yuan said. "Do what we should do, and as for the rest, we can't manage it."

"Mm." Alicia couldn't help but nod.

She understood Li Yuan's meaning... whether it is large-scale exploration of the inner world or testing the value of the stone room, it is not something that a few martial arts geniuses like them can complete.

It takes the power of the entire civilization to do it.

Individual martial power is strong, capable of fighting one against a hundred or even one against ten thousand in head-on battles... but in many other auxiliary aspects, it is very difficult for one person to complete all the work.

"Stone room?"

"What thing?" Xiong Ze and Keros were blank, they couldn't understand at all.

"Don't rush."

"Wait for the news from above, and you will know," Li Yuan smiled, his gaze sweeping over the four people. "Okay, everything is handled, the Gu Yue Divine Kingdom hasn't sent top geniuses for so long, they shouldn't dispatch them again in a short time."

"I have decided to enter the Divine Palace ruins immediately," Li Yuan pointed to the distance.

"So fast?"

"Don't wait a bit longer? Or should we dispatch some Source Martial to explore first?" Alicia, Si Feng, and the others were all somewhat shocked.

"Already have the Lieyan Family's data."

"Dispatching more Source Martial to test has little meaning, and if not careful, it will cause greater losses," Li Yuan shook his head.

"However, the martial artists dispatched by the Lieyan Family in the past shouldn't be as strong as me," Li Yuan revealed a smile. "Perhaps, I can have new discoveries."

"You can wait for my exploration results," Li Yuan smiled.

"Good." Everyone couldn't help but nod, not feeling at all that Li Yuan was bragging.

They even felt that Li Yuan was a bit humble.

"Be careful," Alicia looked at Li Yuan and couldn't help but say in a low voice. "Come back alive."

Historically, the disciples dispatched by the Lieyan Family, even if the probability of death was greatly reduced due to special bloodlines... more than a quarter still died in the Divine Palace ruins.

Li Yuan looked at Alicia's face and revealed a smile. "I will."

One minute later.

Alicia, Si Feng, Keros, and the others watched Li Yuan enter the fire-red palace faintly shrouded by countless radiance.

Until he was out of sight.

"He entered the Divine Palace," Alicia sighed, a hint of worry flashing in her heart.

"Alicia, did you fall in love with this Li Yuan?" a childish voice rang out in her mind.

"Perhaps," Alicia was quite frank; her personality had never been coy.

"Haha, then you have to work hard," the childish voice laughed. "I can feel that his body quality and spiritual sense seem to have become stronger than before."

"Li Yuan has become much stronger again?" Alicia was stunned.

Only one day has passed.

"Forget it," Alicia changed the subject. "Little Star, we should return to the stone room."

"Yes, yes, yes! Let's go back quickly," the childish voice became excited instantly. "Haha, such a Divine Crystal stone room... this is the core of the entire Source Force array, absolutely set up by a deity, the value is extremely high."

"You stay inside."

"With my help, plus your talent... mm, we should be able to cultivate "Water Line Ten Thousand Things Law Body" to the current limit very quickly," the childish voice said. "By then, your comprehension of heaven and earth nature mysteries will be faster."

"It's just a pity."

"Although I guess you have the potential for eight star pulses, wanting to dig it out... with my help, it will at least be at the Flying Heaven level," the childish voice sighed.

"Is "Water Line Ten Thousand Things Law Body" really as strong as you say?" Alicia couldn't help but say.

Regarding this star art, she had already heard Little Star brag too many times.

"That is natural."

"You don't believe me?" Little Star's words were firm. "You must understand that in this endless dimensional river, the most widely spread are the nine 'Supreme Enlightenment Star Arts', such as "Earth Star Pulse True Explanation", "Tianhe Star Pulse True Explanation"... these nine star arts, although ordinary practitioners can also cultivate them, if they are not cultivated to the limit, the effect is ordinary."

"Like "Tianhe Star Pulse True Explanation", I also have the cultivation method for the first three ranks, but I have never thought of letting you cultivate it."

"The "Water Line Ten Thousand Things Law Body" I let you cultivate is an eight-layer star art. Although it can't catch up to the supreme star arts... but looking at the dimensional river, if it can be cultivated to great success, it also belongs to the top tier," Little Star said quite solemnly. "When you cross into Flying Heaven, thoroughly dig out the star pulse potential, and cultivate it to the Third Rank limit."

"Your hope of becoming a demigod will greatly increase."

"Listen to me, do as I say, seize the time," Little Star said repeatedly.

"Good."

On the road of growth for every super strong person, there will be their own great opportunities.

For Alicia.

Compared to the Divine Palace ruins, this mysterious stone room might be a more important opportunity.

……

The Divine Palace ruins are a continuous palace complex, shrouded in radiance, and also ravaged by countless yellow sands.

The palace exteriors are all fire-red, and under the red scorching sun, they appear ancient and vicissitudinous.

According to the guidance of the Lieyan Family's intelligence.

Li Yuan entered the range of the Divine Palace ruins, and in the dark, there seemed to be invisible power suppression, making his spiritual sense only able to extend dozens of meters.

"Truly mysterious," Li Yuan thought to himself. As he deepened into the palace complex, looking around, blocked by yellow sand and radiance, he could no longer see other palaces clearly.

Even less could he see the mirror images outside the palace complex.

"It should be here," Li Yuan passed through some small palace halls on the periphery, avoided the other three main halls,

and finally arrived at a quite desolate square. At the end of the square, on layers of steps, stood a towering and solemn main hall, about several hundred meters wide and about a hundred meters high.

Li Yuan stood at the entrance of the square and stopped.

"According to the Lieyan Family."

"They once dispatched many people to enter the four main halls, but the other three main halls... all died, and not one person came back alive."

"Only this main hall has a different cave, containing great secrets," Li Yuan stared at that towering main hall.

The hall door was dozens of meters high, just standing open like this, ancient and thick, but Li Yuan couldn't see the interior.

"Back then, Demigod Demigod Yan Cheng accidentally broke in here, obtained great benefits from this main hall, soared into the sky, and finally achieved demigod status," Li Yuan felt quite expectant in his heart.

"Lanyue, seems to be inside here too."

"I don't know what will be waiting for me." Li Yuan stepped into the square range and walked towards the Divine Palace.
