Chapter 307: Dongfang Ji

"A list of treasures?" Demigod Sanye, Demigod Baishan, and Fang Hai all looked at the list Li Yuan had given.

Half a cubic meter each of Fire Divine Crystal, Wood Divine Crystal, Water Divine Crystal, and Gold Divine Crystal...

Azure Water Spirit Bamboo, Sky Silk Stone, Ring Emerald Fruit, Purple Mist Qi Essence Stone, Soul-Devouring Nether Wood...

There were nearly a hundred types of treasures, densely packed. Even though the two Demigods and Fang Hai were knowledgeable, they were all somewhat stunned for a moment.

Not to mention anything else, just the two cubic meters of Five-Element Divine Crystals combined had a value reaching 200,000 Qixing points.

It was enough to make a Demigod take it seriously.

As for the many other treasures, the amount needed for each item was not large, and most were not precious, but there were too many types.

Moreover, there were also a few types of treasures that were extremely precious, which several Demigods had only heard of but never seen, and they couldn't judge their specific value at all.

There was dead silence in the conference room.

"Are these treasures very precious?" Luo Chan was curious in her heart; she didn't dare to release her spiritual sense to investigate and couldn't see the list Li Yuan had given clearly.

But she had some guesses from the expressions of the alliance's high-level officials, and she was secretly shocked.

What kind of treasures did Li Yuan want, exactly?

Li Yuan also waited silently; he had no choice. It would be fine if it were just cultivating the two Star Arts "Wind Feather" and "Nine Shadow Clones", as the required treasures were not very harsh.

But!

"Divine Body of All Things" was different; this was a Supreme Star Art... Body-refining Star Arts were recognized as the number one type of killing Star Art!

In short, once "Divine Body of All Things" was cultivated to some success, even in the endless dimensional river, it was said to have invincible power among the same tier.

Such a terrifying Star Art had an extremely high cultivation difficulty and had extremely high requirements for Star Veins and artistic mysteries... and wanting to cultivate it successfully required a large amount of external assistance.

In fact, the treasure list listed above was not complete; it also required "one cubic meter of Earth Divine Crystal", but Li Yuan had it himself, so he didn't list it.

After a long while.

"Li Yuan, must you have these treasures?" Fang Hai said slowly: "The other treasures are fine, but for things like the Purple Mist Qi Essence Stone, the civilization treasury probably doesn't have them... We must ask the Alliance Leader to see if the Alliance Leader has them in his hands."

"I must have them." Li Yuan nodded solemnly: "Otherwise, I cannot achieve the strength to rival a Beast Emperor."

If he couldn't cultivate the "Divine Body of All Things", Li Yuan estimated that even if his artistic comprehension reached the Demigod level, he might not necessarily be able to rival a Beast Emperor... The gap in foundation strength was too large.

Foundation was very important.

Several high-level officials looked at each other, and Demigod Baishan said: "Li Yuan, excluding the three most precious and rare treasures, all the other treasures combined... have a total value exceeding 400,000 Qixing points."

"Such a large amount of treasures, even for a Demigod, it is almost impossible to take them out." Demigod Baishan shook his head.

"Senior Baishan, I am not trying to..." Li Yuan said, just like how the Principal had only taken out '30,000 Qixing points' before.

Most Demigods probably wouldn't keep that many Qixing points on them; most would convert them into strength.

"Li Yuan, you misunderstood."

Demigod Sanye said softly: "What we mean is that the alliance can advance these treasures to you first... After you sweep through the entire Mingxu Star Realm, the alliance will confirm your contributions again and then offset them."

"Even if the Mingxu Star Realm is not occupied in the end, you can pay the alliance back when your strength is sufficient in the future and you have enough points." Demigod Sanye looked at Li Yuan: "What do you think?"

"That works." Li Yuan smiled.

Isn't this an interest-free loan?

"Li Yuan, I have to go ask the Alliance Leader about the other three types of treasures." Fang Hai said: "You have to wait for a moment."

"Good." Li Yuan nodded.

Feixing, the mysterious place connected to the Martial God Star Realm, which was Dongfang Ji's place of quiet cultivation.

That blurry figure sat cross-legged in the void, as if he were in another space.

"Master, Fang Hai requests communication, an emergency contact." A low voice sounded.

"Connect." The blurry figure said.

Quickly.

Hum~

A projection appeared, and the dim light condensed to form Fang Hai's phantom.

"Master." Fang Hai bowed respectfully.

"What is it?"

"It is about Li Yuan, the Mingxu Star Realm..." Fang Hai quickly explained the cause and effect: "Other treasures can be mobilized from the Qixing Treasury, but only the Purple Mist Qi Essence Stone, Soul-Devouring Nether Wood, and Black Scale Jade Iron... the treasury doesn't have them. After thinking about it, only you, Master, have a way."

After Fang Hai finished speaking, he stood there respectfully, waiting for Dongfang Ji's decision.

"This treasure list?" A trace of surprise flashed in the blurry figure's eyes.

What kind of vision did he have? Listening to Fang Hai's narration of the list information, he guessed quite a bit.

"Tell Li Yuan that I can help him get these three treasures, but it will take three days." The blurry figure said directly: "The total value of these treasures is 100,000 Qixing points... It can be recorded in the treasury account first, and it must be paid back in the future."

"Let the account for this treasure list be recorded under this disciple's name." Fang Hai suddenly said.

"Record it all under your name?" The blurry figure was somewhat surprised: "Fang Hai, this is 500,000 Qixing points."

"Master."

"Last time I obtained the Divine Contemplation Method from Li Yuan, I only paid 30,000 Qixing points." Fang Hai said: "I felt bad about it; Li Yuan was still weak before and didn't need that many Qixing points, so I wasn't in a hurry."

"Now that Li Yuan happens to need them, let it be counted on my account; I will pay for him in the future."

"500,000 Qixing points is actually still less than a high-level Divine Contemplation Method, but at least I will feel better in my heart." Fang Hai said solemnly.

"Fine." Dongfang Ji nodded slightly; he knew that his disciple's personality was different from his own and that he didn't like owing favors.

Open and aboveboard.

"Fang Hai, has your spiritual power broken through?" Dongfang Ji suddenly spoke.

"Master has keen eyes." Fang Hai revealed a smile.

That's right, with the help of that Divine Contemplation Method, his spiritual power had indeed broken through the bottleneck in the past year or so... and crossed into the Demigod level.

"Good." Dongfang Ji's eyes lit up.

You must know that Fang Hai had already crossed the threshold of the Laws with Flying-level spiritual power before. Now that he possessed Demigod-level spiritual power, his efficiency in comprehending the mysteries of heaven and earth was destined to soar by a large margin, and the speed of his strength improvement would increase by another large margin.

Bottleneck? In Fang Hai's cultivation years, there currently didn't exist any bottleneck.

Before Li Yuan appeared, the person Dongfang Ji valued most in the entire Qixing civilization was Fang Hai.

"Seven Star Veins, do you have confidence?" Dongfang Ji asked the key point.

"There is hope." Fang Hai nodded: "This disciple will strive to break through to Seven Star Veins before entering the Wanhan Star Realm... If everything goes smoothly, once I complete the breakthrough to become a Demigod and spend some time accumulating Source Power, I should be able to surpass Senior Lante."

"Hm." Dongfang Ji nodded slightly; he was very satisfied with Fang Hai's progress.

"Fine."

"Go tell Li Yuan that I will have the items gathered within three days." Dongfang Ji said slowly: "Tell him not to be impatient; occupying the Mingxu Star Realm is secondary... If there is no absolute certainty, don't take risks."

"This disciple understands." Fang Hai said.

His figure dissipated with a boom.

In this void, only Dongfang Ji remained, sitting cross-legged, his figure ethereal.

"Master, judging from the treasure list, Li Yuan is going to cultivate a Nine-Layer Body-Refining Star Art." That low voice sounded: "Is his Star Vein progress that fast?"

"It truly is incredible."

"A Nine-Layer Star Art requires Nine Star Veins."

"Cultivating two Nine-Layer Star Arts, even in the Divine Court branch, is extremely rare, and only that group of top geniuses located in the Divine Realm would dare to say they can definitely cultivate them successfully." The low voice continued, as if he were a chatterbox.

Apparently, this treasure list had a great impact on him.

"His awakening of new Nine Star Veins is indeed fast, but it didn't exceed my expectations." Dongfang Ji said indifferently: "It's just... he actually has a corresponding Nine-Layer Body-Refining Star Art. It seems the secret of the Lieyu Star Realm is even greater than we imagined."

"Hm, the Demigod inheritance should be fake; I estimate it is a relatively strong God." The low voice said: "Normally speaking, a pseudo-God who has just ignited the divine fire, even if they have learned a Nine-Layer Body-Refining Star Art... it is very difficult to have the qualifications to leave an inheritance. I estimate he should have obtained the inheritance of a true God, but I don't know which one from the great war ten thousand years ago."

"No rush."

"All secrets will eventually be revealed."

"From the existing signs, Li Yuan is loyal to our Qixing civilization, and that is enough." Dongfang Ji closed his eyes gently: "In the 'War of the Gods of the Nine Mountains World' ten thousand years ago, there were only so many strong Gods who participated, and those belonging to the Earth element were even rarer... Hm, for these three treasures Li Yuan needs, go find 'God Fang Yao' of the Wanjie Chamber of Commerce and have him gather them for me within a day."

"Master, rest assured."

Mingxu Star Realm, Mingyue Base, inside the conference room.

Everyone was waiting patiently.

"Li Yuan."

One of the projections, Fang Hai, who had been closing his eyes, suddenly opened them and revealed a smile: "It's already done. Within two days, most of the treasures on the list will be delivered."

"Within four days, those three most precious treasures will all be gathered and delivered to you. Is that okay?"

"Just those three most precious types of treasures have a total value of 100,000 Qixing points. Added to the treasures you requested earlier... the total is 500,000 Qixing points."

Fang Hai changed 'three days' to 'four days'.

"That works." Li Yuan nodded; 500,000 Qixing points? It was indeed an exaggerated amount of wealth.

But as long as he could cultivate it successfully, it was worth it.

Not to mention within the Qixing civilization, even looking at the entire dimensional domain... how many people could cultivate two Supreme Star Arts at the same time?

As strong as God Gu Ju, he only cultivated "Divine Body of All Things" and "True Explanation of Earth Star Veins" to the same-tier perfection.

"Since that is the case."

"Li Yuan, then you should cultivate first. If you have any needs, send a message to any of the three of us again." Fang Hai said.

"Yes, Principal."

After finalizing many details.

Li Yuan did not return to the Xia Nation for spiritual guidance but chose to go into seclusion within the Mingyue Base.

"Although the Inheritance Hall is absolutely safe, Gu You's perception ability is too strong."

"Moreover, I requested many rare treasures this time. Several Demigods might not be able to tell, but what about the Alliance Leader, Dongfang Ji?" Li Yuan thought secretly: "Will he guess that I am cultivating a Supreme Star Art?"

"Once I go back, will he observe me in secret?"

Li Yuan admired the Alliance Leader Dongfang Ji very much; he was his idol since childhood.

But precisely because of his admiration, and precisely because he was gradually coming into contact with the other party, he felt even more awe toward Dongfang Ji.

The same logic applied to Gu You.

"Spiritual guidance involves the Heart Palace." Li Yuan murmured in his heart: "This is my biggest secret... I must never expose it before I have absolute strength to protect myself."

Exposing Nine Star Veins? It doesn't matter; it can be attributed to his Star Vein talent.

If the Heart Palace were exposed, everything would be hard to predict.

Tier-4 warship, inside a quiet room.

Li Yuan's spiritual sense covered all directions, confirming that there was no power spying.

In the Mingxu Star Realm, it was unlikely that anyone had higher artistic realm or spiritual power than Li Yuan.

"Even if the three Beast Emperors join forces to kill me, it is impossible to break open the Tier-4 warship instantly." Li Yuan's heart became increasingly calm: "I hope everything goes smoothly."

Li Yuan couldn't really say he was too sad about Wuma Nong's death; he just felt some emotion, as the relationship between the two sides wasn't truly that deep.

But Li Yuan realized one thing more clearly—become stronger! Must become stronger!

"Become the strongest Tier-2 lifeform in history."

"Number One Source Martial Artist of the civilization? Not enough! Must become the strongest Tier-2 lifeform in history among the many civilizations of the entire dimensional domain." Li Yuan murmured in his heart: "Only then will there be hope to completely pacify the many Tier-2 Star Realms and make my Qixing civilization stronger."

For a civilization to be strong, generation after generation of powerhouses must stand up and contribute.

The first generation of martial artists stood up, creating arts with their bodies and using their lives as the price, opening the beginning of life evolution for the entire Qixing civilization.

Demigod Lante stood up, allowing the Qixing civilization to avoid its first crisis of extermination.

The rise of Alliance Leader Dongfang Ji allowed the Qixing civilization to truly move toward strength, making many foreign civilizations terrified and afraid to invade again.

"And me."

"I have hope to surpass all the seniors in the history of the Qixing civilization, and even surpass Senior Dongfang Ji, to become a God." The more Star Realms Li Yuan roamed, the more he saw, and the stronger this obsession in his heart became.

"Let's begin." Li Yuan closed his eyes, his consciousness having already entered the second layer of the Heart Palace.

He began his second spiritual guidance.
