Chapter 326

"That's true."

Qiu Qiu Bingzun nodded: "You should have something to confirm life and death on you, but from the moment you entered the inner core area, all external object sensing was cut off."

"Except for that kind of 'soul-sensing wonder' that can cross different dimensional planes."

"Otherwise, your home civilization would likely think you had fallen," Qiu Qiu Bingzun said.

"What?" Li Li Li Yuan's face changed. He had two soul-sensing wonders on him.

One is the soul lamp, which can achieve clear sensing as long as it is in this mortal domain, and it is controlled by Gu You.

The other is the life crystal, controlled by the Seven Stars Civilization, but it only confirms within one world.

Combined with the forty-plus days it took to refine the "Heaven Wind Spirit."

That is to say, forty-plus days ago, the higher-ups of the Seven Stars Civilization were guessing whether he had fallen?

"Venerable, why didn't you tell me?" Li Li Li Yuan couldn't help but say, feeling quite worried in his heart.

"I said, you made a choice, so there will be a price," Qiu Qiu Bingzun shook his head: "Without fully confirming your attitude, I won't let any possibility of news leaking out."

"I built this core palace inside the mothership mainly to isolate the aura of the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake egg. Even a seventh-stage Heavenly God, if they don't break the palace, don't even think about sensing it directly," Qiu Qiu Bingzun said.

Li Li Li Yuan was silent.

Qiu Qiu Bingzun was right. Before this, the other party didn't seem to need to care about his attitude.

"But don't worry, I know what you're worried about."

"Xue Yan, the Heavenly Snake Beast Emperor, the Wanlin Beast Emperor, and your clansman 'Yu Jinghe' are all trapped inside the mothership now. I haven't let them out," Qiu Qiu Bingzun smiled: "The forces outside haven't broken out into a great battle either."

"The 'Seven Stars Civilization' to which your home civilization belongs has not suffered any losses."

Li Li Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

What he was most worried about was that after so many days, Xue Yan, the Wanlin Beast Emperor, and the others had already left the mothership... then there would be too many uncontrollable factors.

"As long as you sign a bloodline contract with the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake and make it hatch successfully, these people will be at your disposal," Qiu Qiu Bingzun smiled: "If you don't want to kill them, I even have a way for you to control them with your heart and soul."

"Heart and soul control?" Li Li Li Yuan was stunned.

"It is to plant a restriction in their souls from the source, and they will submit to you from the bottom of their hearts," Qiu Qiu Bingzun said: "Therefore, it is called heart and soul control."

"The method of heart and soul control, looking at the Divine Domain, is extremely precious, and many deities cannot obtain it," Qiu Qiu Bingzun said: "This kind of strange secret technique, in terms of preciousness, is comparable to many complete supreme star arts."

Li Li Li Yuan couldn't help but nod. He had only heard of similar methods, but hadn't seen them.

"Can I cultivate this kind of method?" Li Li Li Yuan was puzzled.

"Normally, no. Even Demigods use their souls very roughly," Qiu Qiu Bingzun smiled: "But in the gifts I prepared for you, it can help you initially cultivate it... controlling a few Heaven-Flying levels is not difficult."

Li Li Li Yuan was secretly shocked, and also had a trace of vigilance.

This Heavenly Snake deity is truly worthy of being an extremely powerful existence among deities. Even though he is dead, the mental mark he left behind is still very terrifying.

"Of course, there are many drawbacks to this kind of heart and soul method," Qiu Qiu Bingzun said: "For one thing, it will put a certain burden on the user's soul. The stronger the servant, the greater the impact on the master, so there is a limit to the number of servants that can be controlled... and even if the servant's strength exceeds the master's by a certain level, they can break free from this heart and soul restriction."

"Secondly, it cannot be applied to those whose strength is too strong. For example, your soul is only at the Heaven-Flying level. If you apply it to a Demigod... you will instead suffer a backlash, causing heavy damage to your own soul."

Li Li Li Yuan listened carefully.

"Thirdly, the controlled person's potential will often drop significantly," Qiu Qiu Bingzun said: "Some peerless geniuses, after being controlled by heart and soul, often progress much slower in strength and find it difficult to reach their original expected height."

"Why?" Li Li Li Yuan was puzzled.

"The heart has changed," Qiu Qiu Bingzun shook his head: "Why can a powerhouse become a powerhouse? It's not just pure talent, but also because they have a powerhouse's heart, and have the courage and determination to desire to surpass everything... If they become a servant and are incomparably obedient to their master, can they still become a powerhouse after a long time?"

Li Li Li Yuan suddenly realized. True peerless geniuses and powerhouses absolutely believe in themselves. Even if they progress slowly for a while, they often won't be discouraged... even if they respect their predecessors, they won't have the thought of becoming a "servant."

"If I can control them with heart and soul, that's naturally the best. I don't care if their future potential becomes lower," Li Li Li Yuan shook his head.

If he could control the two great beast emperors, then the Mingxu beast tribe could be controlled.

If he could control Xue Yan? That would be equivalent to inserting a big nail into the Wan Mo Civilization, hoping to infiltrate the higher-ups of the Wan Mo Civilization in the future.

Inside the inner layer of the mothership, in a super-large secret room.

A battle knife was suspended in the void. The battle knife was pitch black, emitting wisps of strange fluctuations.

In the secret room, Yu Jinghe, dressed in a black robe, had been staring at the battle knife in the void, while sensing the mysterious fluctuations.

"Gold!"

"It's truly mysterious. A battle knife contains an incredibly incredible set of saber techniques," Yu Jinghe was more and more amazed the more he comprehended.

But Yu Jinghe was also quite distressed in his heart: "According to that alien deity envoy, I must comprehend a sufficiently strong saber technique within six months to have hope of entering the next trial."

"This inner layer of the mothership contains so many treasures and opportunities; it is a rare opportunity for me."

"I have become a direct disciple of an alien deity, and with the help of the alien deity inheritance, the hope of becoming a Demigod in the future is very great."

Xue Yan became a direct disciple of an alien deity relatively easily.

And Yu Jinghe, in the divine land, had a breakthrough in his star veins, and only after re-cultivating a powerful star art did he struggle to pass the "sixth trial" of the Heavenly Snake deity's trial.

Facing the harsh requirements of being a "direct disciple" of the Gold-type alien deity, Yu Jinghe finally chose to agree.

After all, he didn't have as many opportunities as Li Li Li Yuan.

Facing an inheritance left by a deity, he naturally had to fight for it.

"Although there is an alien deity inheritance, it is difficult to become a deity. I must seize the opportunity of the inner layer," Yu Jinghe was full of desire in his heart: "If I can enter the core of the inner layer, I'm afraid it will be very easy to become a deity."

The deeper he came into contact, the more he could feel the magic of this mothership.

It is a great treasure trove.

Of course, Yu Jinghe was still full of worries: "I have been in the mothership for so long, I don't know what the situation is outside, and how the war with the Mingxu beast tribe is going?"

Suddenly.

Whoosh~ Countless rays of light gathered, condensing into a one-horned, burly figure in the secret room.

"Yu Jinghe." Qiu Qiu Bingzun looked down at Yu Jinghe.

"Alien deity envoy." Yu Jinghe stood up and bowed respectfully.

"Your trial is over," Qiu Qiu Bingzun said.

"What?" Yu Jinghe was shocked: "Senior, the trial time you gave me was six months. It's been less than two months. I definitely have hope of passing this trial."

"I didn't say you failed the trial, but that your trial is over," Qiu Qiu Bingzun said indifferently: "Just now, someone has already passed the trial, entered the core of the inner layer, and obtained the treasure left by the Heavenly Snake deity."

"Someone has already completed the trial? Who?" Yu Jinghe was shocked in his heart. He had experienced many trials before and knew the difficulty very well.

And the six trials of the inner layer, he had only reached the third one. Who could pass the six trials so quickly?

Could it be the three great beast emperors?

"You know this person," Qiu Qiu Bingzun said indifferently: "It is 'Spirit Spear' from your Seven Stars Civilization."

"Spirit Spear?" Yu Jinghe held his breath. He was naturally no stranger to this name.

Before entering the civilization mothership, he had heard that a super genius "Spirit Spear" was born in his own civilization, and swept through the Heaven-Flying powerhouses of the Cloud Beast Civilization in the Luobuhai Star Realm.

When he received this news, he was very excited.

He didn't expect that the other party had also entered the divine land and passed through layers of obstacles so quickly to get the final treasure.

"You should be glad."

"If it were a little later, I'm afraid 'Xue Yan,' another genius of the Wan Mo Civilization, would have had hope of breaking into the core of the inner layer," Qiu Qiu Bingzun said indifferently: "Although he entered later than you, he has already broken into the fourth trial..."

"Xue Yan?" A trace of confusion flashed in Yu Jinghe's eyes, feeling unfamiliar with this name.

The changes in the situation over the past few months were beyond his imagination.

From Qiu Qiu Bingzun's words, Yu Jinghe could also judge... if there was no Spirit Spear, he would likely not have been able to compete with this "Xue Yan."

"That's fine," Yu Jinghe secretly thought: "The treasure of the Heavenly Snake deity falling into the hands of Spirit Spear is a thousand times better than falling into the hands of Xue Yan."

No matter what, it belonged to the Seven Stars Civilization.

"Whoosh!"

Qiu Qiu Bingzun waved his hand, and a storage treasure floated toward Yu Jinghe. The battle knife suspended in the secret room had its mysterious fluctuations restrained and slowly fell: "According to Spirit Spear's wishes, these treasures are gifted to you as a reward for passing the fifth trial."

"This?" Yu Jinghe was shocked.

He was also a Heaven-Flying level spiritual power user. With one thought, he knew that the storage treasure contained astonishingly valuable treasures.

"Thank you, Senior." Yu Jinghe said repeatedly.

"If you want to thank someone, thank Spirit Spear," Qiu Qiu Bingzun looked at the other party: "If he hadn't spoken, you wouldn't be qualified to get these treasures... The treasure left by the Heavenly Snake deity is only one level higher than this gift of yours."

"Yes." Yu Jinghe didn't believe the other party's words. Only one level higher than his? Don't lie to ghosts.

However, he was already full of good feelings for this "Spirit Spear" he had never met.

"This gift has no requirements for you, but don't forget your promise to the 'Gold-type alien deity'," Qiu Qiu Bingzun said: "You have already made a law oath, no one can help you."

"Understood." Yu Jinghe nodded.

The inheritance of the direct disciple left by that Gold-type alien deity had harsh conditions, but it also required him to do it after becoming a deity, so he wasn't in a hurry.

"In addition."

"You must make a law oath not to reveal the secrets of the inner layer," Qiu Qiu Bingzun said: "This is not requested by Spirit Spear, but by the Heavenly Snake deity."

"Yes." Yu Jinghe nodded.

Not long after.

Yu Jinghe, who had made a new law oath, took the treasures and was sent directly out of the civilization mothership by Qiu Qiu Bingzun.

"This Li Li Li Yuan is indeed a person who values affection and righteousness," Qiu Qiu Bingzun said to himself, and his incarnation dissipated directly.

Core area of the mothership, inside the Heavenly Snake Palace.

"Already sent Yu Jinghe away."

"And told him you are still alive, so you don't have to worry anymore," the one-horned, burly figure suddenly said: "In addition, I also gave him an extra small gift, which should be helpful to him."

"Thank you, Venerable." Li Li Li Yuan nodded.

Li Li Li Yuan wanted to contact the Li Li Mingyue base directly, but unfortunately, Qiu Qiu Bingzun refused. He only agreed to let Yu Jinghe pass on the message.

"Rest assured, I wouldn't deceive you," Qiu Qiu Bingzun looked at Li Li Li Yuan: "Now, it's time to start hatching the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake."

"Good." Li Li Li Yuan nodded. It had reached this point, and there was no other way back.

"Rumble~" The entire palace suddenly trembled, and the towering divine pillars that had been standing suddenly bloomed with light, and countless rays of light gathered toward the center of the hall.

"This?" Li Li Li Yuan was shocked.

"It's finally starting," Qiu Qiu Bingzun had a complex look in his eyes: "I don't know if this is the last Holy Blood Heavenly Snake egg of my tribe."

Back then, the Heavenly Snake tribe was attacked by a powerful enemy and began to flee. He led only one of the fleeing teams.

As for whether other fleeing teams were still alive and whether there were other Holy Blood Heavenly Snake eggs? Qiu Qiu Bingzun didn't know.

Many fleeing teams didn't know each other and didn't contact each other, fleeing separately, in order to ensure the continuation of the tribe to the greatest extent.

Boom~ The floor of the palace cracked, revealing a huge divine pool. Purple liquid flowed in the pool, and the liquid emitted a hazy radiance, like divine splendor.

"Such a rich life aura," Li Li Li Yuan held his breath. He could feel that these purple liquids were probably incomparably precious.

Immediately, Li Li Li Yuan's gaze fell on the cyan snake egg in this huge divine pool.

So big!

Li Li Li Yuan confirmed by visual inspection that the diameter of this snake egg should exceed ten meters, completely soaked in purple liquid, and the surface of the snake egg flashed with layers of light, emitting a powerful aura.

"After ten thousand years, the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake egg has been kept active by these special spiritual liquids," Qiu Qiu Bingzun said softly: "The Holy Blood Heavenly Snake egg can be preserved for up to thirty thousand years from birth to hatching... now it is nearly twenty thousand years."

"These spiritual liquids are both to ensure its activity and to seal its life origin."

"Twenty thousand years?" Li Li Li Yuan was secretly shocked.

It's truly exaggerated. It's worthy of being a great tribe in the Divine Domain; they have many methods.

"Go."

Whoosh~ Qiu Qiu Bingzun suddenly raised his hand, and his fingertips crossed a stream of light, instantly rushing into Li Li Li Yuan's mind.

Immediately, a large amount of information emerged, all of which were many tips related to hatching the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake egg.

With Li Li Li Yuan's current spiritual power, he quickly understood everything.

"Next, it's up to you," Qiu Qiu Bingzun said.

"Yes." Li Li Li Yuan took a deep breath, looked at the divine pool, and flew straight into it.

Splash~

Li Li Li Yuan was completely soaked in the purple spiritual liquid, sitting cross-legged and suspended in it.

"Must succeed."

Li Li Li Yuan secretly thought: "Once successful, I will obtain many treasures left by the Heavenly Snake deity, and I will also obtain a spirit beast destined to grow to the peak of the True God."

Such a powerful spirit beast is easy to attract disaster, not to mention that the Heavenly Snake tribe still has great enemies.

But if used well, it is also a great help.

According to the information in Qiu Qiu Bingzun's method, a Holy Blood Heavenly Snake will grow to the peak of the True God in as short as a hundred years and as long as a thousand years, and then shine for thirty thousand years.

Many powerful True Gods reach the limit of their lifespan when they reach the peak of the True God, so it is naturally difficult to become a Heavenly God.

And the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake has thirty thousand years to fight and chase... the hope of becoming a Heavenly God is naturally very great.

"Refine." Li Li Li Yuan followed the information's guidance, and his divine sense quickly penetrated the entire divine pool.

Gradually sensing the many secret pattern imprints of the divine pool, all of which were mystery fluctuations of the Wind lineage.

"If there was no Heaven Wind Spirit, I'm afraid I wouldn't be so relaxed," Li Li Li Yuan secretly thought.

Li Li Li Yuan already understood why Qiu Qiu Bingzun wanted him to try the "Heaven Wind Spirit" first. Only after transforming his body bloodline in this way could he be closer to the Law of Wind and be more compatible with the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake bloodline, making hatching the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake easier.

Not long after.

"Rumble~" Li Li Li Yuan initially refined the divine pool and sensed every wisp of spiritual liquid through the divine pool.

This is the first step.

"The second step, integrate my life origin." Li Li Li Yuan moved his mind, and immediately his body seemed to boil, and a large amount of blood seeped directly from many acupoints into the spiritual liquid.

They began to merge with each other.

Time passed, a large amount of blood seeped into the divine pool, and at the same time, the source power in Li Li Li Yuan's body was frantically turning into blood... Gradually, a trace of blood color appeared in the entire divine pool.

According to the information's guidance, Li Li Li Yuan spent a long time, and when his body felt a burst of weakness... he finally used the divine pool to merge his own blood and spiritual liquid into one.

"The third step, release the suppression and integrate into the snake egg." Li Li Li Yuan moved his mind, and the divine pool, which was similar to a magic treasure, completely released its suppression on that huge Heavenly Snake egg.

Immediately.

"Rumble~" The Holy Blood Heavenly Snake egg, which had always been silent, immediately erupted with a burst of dazzling light, followed by forming a huge vortex.

Frantically absorbing the spiritual liquid in the divine pool, those spiritual liquids were mixed with a large amount of Li Li Li Yuan's blood.

Absorbing external energy caused the aura of the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake egg to erupt rapidly, and it had already begun to be born.

"Integrate soul power." Li Li Li Yuan moved his mind, and his divine sense power had already penetrated into the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake egg.

"Pfft pfft pfft~"

The Holy Blood Heavenly Snake egg was now like a huge glutton, and even Li Li Li Yuan's divine sense power began to be "swallowed" without hesitation.

Pain!

Damage to divine sense is like tearing the soul, and bursts of pain swept through Li Li Li Yuan's heart.

"Persist!"

"Feeding the snake with the body, nourishing it with the spirit, only then can we make our bloodlines fit," Li Li Li Yuan secretly thought, trying his best to persist.

Li Li Li Yuan also understood why Qiu Qiu Bingzun would say "must persist" before.

The whole process will last for three months, and it will indeed be very painful.

Fortunately.

Every time the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake egg swallows a wisp of Li Li Li Yuan's divine sense power, although painful, it will not cause fatal damage to Li Li Li Yuan's soul in a short time.

... "Back then, the tribe elder said."

"Only when my tribe gives birth to a Heavenly God again can we rebuild and stand in the Divine Domain again," Qiu Qiu Bingzun silently watched everything in the divine pool: "I don't know if it can succeed in the future."

"Venerable."

The black snake phantom on the side couldn't help but transmit: "Do you really intend to let the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake become Spirit Spear's 'spirit beast'? According to your original intention, if that Xue Yan came, didn't you plan to let Xue Yan become the 'servant' of the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake?"

"Hmm." Qiu Qiu Bingzun glanced at the black phantom: "Xue Yan? His potential is too poor, and the hope of becoming a True God in the future is very slim... he can't help the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake much, so he is just a 'substitute' in my plan."

"But Spirit Spear is different," Qiu Qiu Bingzun looked at the black-clothed figure in the divine pool: "His potential is extremely high."

"In the future, he has hope of joining under the door of a Heavenly God, or even becoming a Heavenly God himself."

"This is a human Heavenly God!!"

"Humans are the largest tribe in the Divine Domain," Qiu Qiu Bingzun said softly: "I never counted on Spirit Spear to resist my Heavenly Snake tribe's great enemy, but in the future, he has hope of joining some super forces in the Divine Domain, for example—the Chaos Divine Court."

"Chaos Divine Court?" The black snake phantom was shocked.

That is one of the top major forces in the Divine Domain.

"I help him sincerely, and the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake will treat him as a brother, as a father."

"Because of the bloodline contract, he will also be extremely close to the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake... only then can he help the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake from the bottom of his heart in the future," Qiu Qiu Bingzun said slowly.

"He is a human, his talent is high, and he comes from a mortal domain, his background is so clean... the hope of joining a super force in the Divine Domain is very great."

Qiu Qiu Bingzun said: "Then, as his companion spirit beast, the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake will naturally have hope of becoming the core of a super force, and the hope of becoming a Heavenly God will greatly increase."

The black snake phantom understood.

If it were the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake alone, it would be easy to join a super force, but to become the core of a super force? It would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.

It is very difficult to be trusted.

"If it can reach that step."

"The two of them, Heavenly Gods, join forces, and they are members of a super force. Even if we rebuild the Heavenly Snake tribe, even if they are our enemies, they won't dare to act easily," Qiu Qiu Bingzun said in a low voice: "Otherwise, even if they both become Heavenly Gods, it will be difficult to resist the great enemy."

"Venerable is wise," the black snake phantom said.

Time passed, as Li Li Li Yuan was fully hatching the Holy Blood Heavenly Snake in the core area of the mothership.

In the Mingxu Star Realm, Yu Jinghe had already safely returned to the Li Li Mingyue base.

"What?"

"Spirit Spear, killed over a hundred Heaven-Flying beast kings alone? Has peak Heaven-Flying combat power?" Yu Jinghe was dumbfounded, finally knowing what had happened in the past few months, and also understood why Spirit Spear could enter the core area of the mothership so quickly.

At the same time.

The news he brought also shocked and excited Tavares, Zha Zha Jiang Zai, Luo Chan, and the others.

"Spirit Spear, still alive?"

"Still alive! Great!"

"Li Li Li Yuan is still alive?"

"Yu Jinghe returned alive?" Baishan Demigod, Fang Hai, and Demigod Demigod Demigod Demigod Sanye also received the news quickly, and were all incomparably excited.

Baishan Demigod and Fang Hai rushed to Jiangnan Province for the first time and saw Yu Jinghe who had come out of the Mingxu Star Realm. They wanted to know what was going on inside Ming Mountain.

"Three great beast emperors, only two left?"

"Ming Mountain is a god-level warship, and there are inheritances of six deities in the warship?"

"Wanlin Beast Emperor, Heavenly Snake Beast Emperor, Xue Yan, are they all still in the warship?" Baishan Demigod and Fang Hai listened to Yu Jinghe's detailed account.

Just the inheritance of six deities made them shocked.

Qiu Qiu Bingzun only required Yu Jinghe not to reveal the secrets of the inner layer. As for the things outside the mothership? He didn't make any requirements.

"Two seniors."

"Regarding many things about the warship, I can't say... I can only tell the two seniors that Spirit Spear got more benefits than me, and he is also safe and sound," Yu Jinghe said: "But when he can come out, I don't know."

Baishan Demigod and Fang Hai looked at each other. Can't say?

"Is it a law oath?" Baishan Demigod said softly.

"Yes," Yu Jinghe nodded.

... Yu Jinghe's return allowed the higher-ups of the Seven Stars Civilization to temporarily put down their worries about Li Li Li Yuan, and they were all full of expectations.

Day after day, the situation in the Mingxu Star Realm remained stable, and in the blink of an eye, three months had passed.
