Chapter 366: Eastern Demon
"Captured?"
Li Yuan's eyes lit up: "Good! Little Bing, bring her and come to Jianshanwan City immediately. I am waiting for you here."
Originally, Li Yuan didn't hold much hope for Little Bing catching that fleeing demigod.
After all, the earth is vast, and in a region of thousands of kilometers, even if Liu Bing's speed is extremely fast, her spiritual sense range is limited, and the hope of encountering her was less than thirty percent.
Unexpectedly, with only two or three percent hope, Liu Bing had succeeded.
"Little Bing is truly my lucky star." Li Yuan thought to himself.
"Little Bing is about 2000 kilometers away from me." Li Yuan roughly confirmed the position; with soul connection, they could easily confirm each other's location.
Boom!
Li Yuan turned into a streak of light and quickly returned to Jianshanwan City, hundreds of kilometers away.
Before arriving, Li Yuan could see from afar that at the end of the world, the city, which looked like ruins, was still shrouded in vast, majestic black clouds.
The entire city, the urban area was basically razed to the ground, and the surrounding areas were also affected, with heavy casualties.
This scene made Li Yuan sigh inwardly.
Jianshanwan City was a city similar to Jiang City, and in the blink of an eye, it had reached such a state.
Although he had broken the Yuan Force Grand Array, he hadn't removed the array bases, so this massive Yuan Force array was still running, but now without a demigod presiding over it, the power was restrained and did not continue to erupt.
"By rights, such a Yuan Force Grand Array has extremely high value." Li Yuan thought to himself: "But so much time has passed, and no other aliens have come to collect the array base divine artifacts. Could it be that the Myriad Demon Civilization only has these three alien demigods on Lantie Star?"
The reason Li Yuan rushed to Jianshanwan City in the first place was to prevent this Yuan Force Grand Array from being collected by potential 'alien demigods'.
Three early-stage demigods, relying on this set of array methods, could each erupt with mid-stage demigod combat power, and even trap Li Yuan before his breakthrough. One can imagine the value of this Yuan Force Grand Array.
Whoosh!
Li Yuan stood in the void, looking down, his aura released without any concealment.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Over ten streaks of light flew over; they were all Flying Heaven martial artists who had received the news in these few minutes and rushed over.
"Star Lord Li Yuan."
"Greetings, Star Lord." Over ten Flying Heaven martial artists bowed respectfully.
Although they didn't know the specific battle situation, the 'Global System' of the virtual network had a lot of the latest intelligence, stating directly that this was a battle of demigods and that alien demigods had appeared.
By the time they arrived, the battle in the city had long ended. Just looking at the black clouds rolling in the massive Yuan Force array made their hearts jump.
Then, they saw Li Yuan return, but there was no sign of the alien demigods.
Without a doubt, Li Yuan must have won.
"It is already safe." Li Yuan's gaze swept over them, and then his mind stirred.
Whoosh~ A dazzling light appeared in his palm, followed by an invisible wave sweeping past. Suddenly, on a wasteland several kilometers away, countless figures appeared densely.
Millions of them.
There were old people and children, many were martial artists, and some were barely clothed... Of course, there were also the nearly twenty Flying Heaven martial artists that Li Yuan had collected earlier.
Millions of ordinary people were a bit confused; for them, everything had only passed a few minutes ago.
It was definitely a dreamlike experience.
"These?"
"Who are they?" The over ten Flying Heaven martial artists who came to rescue looked at this scene, their hearts shocked. What kind of divine ability was this?
With a wave of his hand, millions of people appeared out of thin air?
"When I fought the three alien demigods, I could only barely save these people." Li Yuan said in a low voice: "More people couldn't be saved... They are now homeless; you should do the aftermath work."
Three alien demigods?
This group of Flying Heaven martial artists was surprised, but still respectfully said: "Yes, obey Star Lord's order."
There is a difference between Star Lords and Star Lords.
Without a doubt, in their hearts, although Li Yuan was at the Flying Heaven Realm, he was already no different from a true demigod.
Not long after.
Whoosh!
A massive cyan streak of light streaked across the sky, mighty and majestic, with astonishing momentum.
In the awe-filled gazes of the group of Flying Heaven martial artists, the light dissipated, revealing Liu Bing's beautiful body, massive all over, emitting a crystalline light, with claws on her abdomen... making her look like a legendary cyan dragon, just without dragon horns and dragon whiskers.
"Heaven Snake form." Li Yuan thought to himself; he understood that this was Little Bing's disguise, disguising as an ordinary Heaven Snake.
If it were a Saint Blood Heaven Snake, then the scales and head would have some changes.
"Greetings, Divine Snake."
"Divine Snake." Over thirty Flying Heaven martial artists all bowed respectfully, and the millions of people below all held their breath, watching this scene.
After dozens of days of great battle, on the entire Lantie Star, even ordinary people knew the names of Li Yuan and the Divine Snake.
"Big Brother."
"That alien demigod is here." Liu Bing transmitted, and a flash of light appeared in front of her, and a figure appeared out of thin air.
She had a beautiful appearance, wearing white clothes, she was over two meters tall, with two curved horns growing on her forehead, and she emitted an extremely powerful aura.
However, at this moment, this demigod was quite disheveled, and her body was faintly bound by a cyan rope.
"Demigod?"
"Alien demigod?" The Flying Heaven martial artists present were all startled, their eyes looking at Liu Bing completely different.
The Divine Snake had captured an alien demigod?
"Your name is Sang Qiu?" Li Yuan looked at this alien demigod and said softly: "I believe you should understand, don't resist me."
On the way Liu Bing came, she had already passed some intelligence she had initially obtained to Li Yuan.
"Little Bing, you stay here and guard this grand array." Li Yuan transmitted.
Whoosh!
Li Yuan flew forward, grabbed Demigod Sang Qiu, and then the two charged toward the black clouds in the distance, quickly disappearing from everyone's sight.
"Star Lord Li Yuan, he?"
"Alone, taking a demigod into this Yuan Force array?"
"Won't there be danger?" Many Flying Heaven martial artists felt worried, and couldn't help but look at Liu Bing.
In their view, that was a demigod; even if she had been captured, one should be careful.
"Don't worry too much."
"Three alien demigods, the other two stronger ones were killed by the master, and the remaining one is the weakest." Liu Bing glanced at them: "Go get busy."
This was the clear advice given by Venerable Qiu Bing. When facing the outside world, Liu Bing was a 'normal Heaven Snake', and at the same time, Li Yuan's spirit beast, not a bloodline contract.
Only in this way could Liu Bing's identity be better disguised.
And as time passed, Liu Bing also had the desire to contact the outside world, and she also longed to have a public identity.
"What? Star Lord Li Yuan has already killed two demigods?"
"Flying Heaven, killing demigods?" These Flying Heaven martial artists were even more shocked: "Another Demigod Fang Hai? How long has it been?"
In their cognition, it had only been two years since Li Yuan swept the Tier-Two Star Realm, and he could kill demigods?
This kind of shock, one can imagine.
"Such a powerful Divine Snake, is it really Star Lord Li Yuan's spirit beast?" Many Flying Heaven martial artists also thought so.
Subconsciously.
Many Flying Heaven martial artists began to report the intelligence they knew... Liu Bing didn't care at all.
After this battle, the Myriad Demon Civilization already knew Li Yuan's strength, so it didn't matter whether it leaked or not.
Inside the Yuan Force Grand Array, black clouds obscured everything.
"Demigod Sang Qiu?" Li Yuan looked at the completely bound Demigod Sang Qiu and smiled: "I went to hunt down your companions; they seemed unwilling to surrender. Why are you willing?"
When hunting down Demigod Pu Yang, the other party said he was willing to surrender, but Li Yuan was in a hurry to kill more demigods at the time, so naturally, he had no time to entangle with him and killed him directly.
"They all have many close relatives in their hometown, so naturally they don't dare to surrender easily, but I don't have many clansmen ties; my parents have long since died, and what remains are just some distant relatives." Demigod Sang Qiu said: "Secondly, we have also made a Law Oath, we must obey orders."
Li Yuan listened.
Only some distant relatives left?
"Cultivation is not easy, I hope to live, to live forever." Demigod Sang Qiu looked at Li Yuan: "Lord Li Yuan, I actually received Suhaer's transmission, saying that you might have cultivated a mind-soul control method, but I don't care."
"Don't even care about mind-soul control?" A trace of surprise flashed in Li Yuan's eyes.
Those who can cultivate to become demigods are mostly people with firm minds and will not easily bow their heads to become servants.
Many powerhouses would rather die than submit.
Without such a strong mind, it is difficult to grow up.
"In the Myriad Demon Civilization, I was not really valued either." Demigod Sang Qiu said in a low voice: "If I were valued, I wouldn't have been sent to accept this mortal mission."
"Besides."
"If I were to become a servant of other ordinary demigods, I naturally wouldn't be willing." Demigod Sang Qiu stared at Li Yuan, a glimmer of light in her eyes: "But you are different."
"You have cultivated for less than thirty years, yet you have the strength of a peak demigod, and even such a powerful flying snake has submitted to you. You are likely to become a legendary true god in the future... becoming your servant, perhaps I can also become a god in the future."
"In the future, I still want to kill my way back to the Myriad Demon Civilization and take revenge." Hatred flashed in Demigod Sang Qiu's eyes.
Li Yuan understood.
Human hearts are different. In the Divine Realm, there are also many Void Gods and True Gods who will willingly follow a Heavenly God... Some treasures bestowed by a Heavenly God at will might be a great opportunity for an ordinary god.
It seems that Demigod Sang Qiu still has an unfulfilled obsession in her heart and is unwilling to die like this.
"Good."
"I have also just cultivated the mind-soul secret art. If you become the first servant under my command, I will naturally help you with all my strength in the future." Li Yuan said softly: "After all, if you become a god and return to the Myriad Demon Civilization in the future, it will maximize the value for me."
Li Yuan said this on purpose.
All of Demigod Sang Qiu's treasures had already been taken away by Liu Bing, so by logic, she shouldn't be able to transmit back to the Myriad Demon Civilization... but it is better to be safe than sorry, and Li Yuan was also worried that the other party was deliberately surrendering to scam some intelligence.
"Give up resistance."
"Don't play any tricks; you should understand that I can kill you with a flip of my hand." Li Yuan maintained the Body Refining Star Art state, his mind stirred, and he had already displayed the soul secret art "Mind Soul Nine Refinements".
After the soul transformed into the demigod level, Li Yuan would occasionally ponder this secret art. Although he hadn't cultivated the demigod chapter to perfection, it was much more powerful than when he was on the Mingxu Star Realm back then.
The key was that Li Yuan's own soul realm was far beyond what it was back then.
"Sss~"
Invisible soul power quickly penetrated into Demigod Sang Qiu's sea of consciousness, gradually displaying the soul secret art, attempting to completely control her.
"Controlling a demigod is much more troublesome than controlling a Flying Heaven."
"It seems it will take some time." Li Yuan thought to himself, devoting his whole heart to the enslavement process.
Myriad Demon Civilization, Myriad Demon Star.
In the magnificent and vast Myriad Demon Palace, it was already silent; all the demigods and Flying Heavens had left.
In the palace, the three huge light screen projections that had been floating and playing were now completely still.
The images on them were the final moments of the three demigods.
"Eastern Demon." The phantom of the North Moon God sighed: "This failure is not your fault; if you want to blame someone, blame Li Yuan for being too strong."
Eastern Demon God stood in the void, saying nothing.
Although the two of them hadn't been there in person for the battle between the three demigods and Li Yuan, they had seen many images transmitted back, as well as a large amount of text information... making them very clear about Li Yuan's strength.
A long time passed.
"Li Yuan's strength, how can it be so strong?" Eastern Demon God's eyes were cold, his fists clenched: "Two years, only two years, he jumped from a Yuan Martial Artist to possessing Level 45 strength?"
"According to the final intelligence sent back by Pu Yang and the others, Li Yuan's attack shouldn't have reached Level 45, it should be at the Level 44 standard." North Moon God said: "Otherwise, when he was hunting down Pu Yang at the end, he could have killed Pu Yang in one move."
"But his domain is very strong, many peak demigod powerhouses' domains are probably not as good as his, and his material defense is also extremely strong."
"Synthetically speaking." North Moon God said: "His Law perception should have reached the peak demigod level, and his life-saving ability is even stronger."
"Much stronger than the Fang Hai of yesteryear."
Eastern Demon God fell completely silent.
Flying Heaven Realm, reaching this level in just a few years? What kind of monster is this?
Looking at the entire mortal domain, such a Flying Heaven Realm hasn't been born, right?
"His strength is so powerful, he should have two Nine-Fold Star Arts, Body Refining Star Art, Domain Star Art." North Moon God analyzed: "The strength foundation is at least Level 37.9, or even Level 38.9."
"Level 38.9? Eight Star Pulses?" Eastern Demon God's pupils shrank.
In the entire history of the Myriad Demon Civilization, even that only True God hadn't awakened Eight Star Pulses.
"Hard to say, it's just a possibility." North Moon God said: "After all, if there isn't such a strong Yuan Force foundation, then it's his divine artifact that is extremely strong... otherwise, it can't be explained."
Eastern Demon God nodded slightly.
Every strength has a reason.
So-called strength is nothing more than Law perception, weapons, star arts, and Yuan Force cultivation.
"These, we can only guess."
"According to Suhaer's final transmission message." Eastern Demon God said in a low voice: "Sang Qiu was captured, I'm afraid she will be enslaved... This time, it's a complete failure."
His heart was bleeding.
For this planned invasion, he didn't care about the dead Flying Heaven martial artists, nor did he care about the three dead demigods... Although the lost Yuan Force Grand Array was precious, he could still bear it.
The most critical thing was Li Yuan.
"Flying Heaven Realm is already so powerful, once he breaks through to become a demigod, wouldn't he be the second Dongfang Ji? No! Maybe even stronger than Dongfang Ji." Eastern Demon God felt a headache thinking of this.
"Damn it." Eastern Demon God couldn't think of any other way to kill Li Yuan.
Not a single hope.
"Eastern Demon, I have an idea, I don't know if I should say it or not." North Moon God suddenly said.
"Speak." Eastern Demon God looked at the other party.
"Let's make peace." North Moon God sighed: "There is no hope. Our number of Flying Heaven martial artists and demigods is ten or even dozens of times that of the Seven Star Civilization... but you know very well, practitioners, great power is gathered in one person."
"In the past, there was only Dongfang Ji."
"Now, Fang Hai and Li Yuan have grown up one after another, and there is also that flying snake. Our hope is becoming increasingly slim." North Moon God shook his head: "Now, while they haven't become completely powerful, there is still a possibility of peace. If it continues... once a True God is born among them, that will be the real big trouble."
Apparently.
After witnessing the strength of Li Yuan and Liu Bing, North Moon God could no longer feel any hope of victory.
"Make peace?" Eastern Demon God's eyes flickered.
If any demigod under his command had suggested this, he would have killed them in anger.
But this was North Moon God's suggestion, which made him have to consider it carefully.
"Even if I am willing to make peace."
"Do you think the Seven Star Civilization will agree?" Eastern Demon God said slowly: "Even if they agree, what kind of conditions will the Seven Star Civilization put forward?"
"I will go talk." North Moon God said: "If the negotiation fails, it won't be too late to continue the war."
"Good." Eastern Demon God nodded.
Not long after, North Moon God's spiritual sense phantom dissipated, leaving only Eastern Demon God alone in the temple.
"Ah!"
Eastern Demon God suddenly let out a low roar, his hand suddenly waved, and a terrifying divine power surged, striking the ground, immediately making the majestic Myriad Demon Palace tremble faintly.
"Dongfang Ji!!" Eastern Demon God's eyes were cold, and he spat these three words through his teeth.
"You really succeeded."
"Over a hundred years, you really led a weak civilization to complete rise." Eastern Demon God gritted his teeth.
Back then, if it weren't for Dongfang Ji's rise, the demigod army under his command would have already submerged the entire Seven Star Civilization and occupied it completely.
Where would we have waited until today?
Fang Hai's rise already made him extremely anxious.
Today's battle, the strength Li Yuan revealed, extinguished the last glimmer of hope in his heart... that was why he agreed to North Moon God's peace proposal.
If Eastern Demon God was angry.
"These alien civilizations, what conditions did they give?" Li Yuan asked.
"Star Lord Li Yuan, killed two demigods?"
"So strong!"
"The Divine Snake also captured a demigod." The news quickly spread through Lantie Star's virtual network to other planets.
The demigods and Flying Heavens who had been paying attention to this battle in the Seven Star Civilization were also excited and shocked.
They knew Li Yuan was strong, but no one expected him to be this strong.
It had only been two years since Li Yuan swept the Tier-Two Star Realm.
Blue Star, Jiang City, Starfire East Lake Villa Bay community.
"Ah Hua!"
"Ah Hua! Look at the news, Big Brother killed a demigod! Killed a demigod on Lantie Star." An exclamation echoed throughout the villa.
Boom!
A figure flashed and disappeared, a burly figure rushed to the second floor and came to his wife's side. He looked at the news broadcast on the light screen projection in front of his wife.
"Star Realm Special Report, Great Victory on Lantie Star! Alliance Star Lord 'Li Yuan' four hours ago, on Lantie Star Jianshanwan City... finally killed two alien Flying Heaven transcendents. This battle will become a turning point in the Lantie Star war..." The host was saying excitedly.
Such great victory news had quickly made the front page headlines of major planets within a few hours, triggering heated discussions among countless people on major planets.
Transcending Flying Heaven, that is a demigod.
Even Fang Hai's battle in the 'Myriad Cold Star Realm' was not publicly broadcast like this... Many battles in the star realm do not have such a big impact.
"Big Brother, is it really Big Brother?" Li Muhua held his breath, his eyes filled with excitement.
After so many years, he had long since graduated from Kunlun Martial University and was now a Level 24 Yuan Martial Artist.
"Big Brother is too amazing, even the legendary demigods have fallen at Big Brother's hands." The woman on the side said excitedly, then shook her head and sighed: "However, I haven't met Big Brother yet."
"Don't rush."
"When Big Brother returns to Blue Star, there will be a chance to meet." Li Muhua smiled.
The woman beside him was his newlywed wife, also a classmate who graduated from Kunlun Martial University together.
The woman had just become a Yuan Martial Artist not long ago.
"Ah Hua."
"You didn't tell me before, you insisted on waiting until we got married to tell me the truth." The woman couldn't help but say: "Big Brother is so strong... no wonder when we were in college, your cultivation resources were so rich."
When in college, Li Muhua's related identity was not something ordinary institutions were qualified to know.
At that time, the woman only thought that Li Muhua had a top-tier Yuan Martial Artist elder in his family.
Never thought that Li Muhua's background would be so big.
"Big Brother is Big Brother, I am me." Li Muhua said: "Big Brother will help us, this is our opportunity... but whether we can become Flying Heaven martial artists depends on whether we work hard ourselves."
The woman nodded slightly. A few months ago, when she learned of Li Muhua's true identity, she was also a bit confused.
Now? She was even more confused.
Even demigods can be killed, doesn't that mean this Big Brother she hasn't met yet is already the peak existence in the entire Seven Star Civilization?
For a time, she felt a bit dizzy.
"This disciple of mine is really amazing." Far away in the Mingxu Star Realm, Li Yang, watching this news, was also quite excited.
Flying Star, Martial God Star Realm.
"Didn't Li Yuan just break through?"
"And he already killed a demigod?"
"This! This!" Tantai Feng, Tian Dazhuang, Jin Huguo, Alicia, and their group of friends truly exploded.
Before the Lantie Star crisis, although they guessed that Li Yuan had stepped into the Law Realm, they still thought the other party was just a Yuan Martial Artist... how in the blink of an eye, even a demigod fell at Li Yuan's hands.
A demigod!
Seven Star Mountain members are already the gathering place for the top geniuses of the Seven Star Civilization, but the vast majority cannot become demigods.
The rapid change in this status and strength, one can imagine the shock in their hearts.
Flying Star, Starfire Martial Hall Headquarters.
"I knew that in the Flying Heaven Realm, his strength would be stronger than mine back then, and far beyond."
"But I didn't expect it to be so fast."
"How long has it been, and Li Yuan's strength has grown to this level?" Fang Hai's face was full of smiles, he was very happy.
"Indeed incredible."
"Flying Heaven Realm being able to erupt with demigod threshold strength is already extremely rare." The phantom figure of Elder Yun said softly: "Like you back then, Law perception reached the mid-stage of the seventh stage, and your strength only improved to the Level 42 standard, and you killed those two demigods in the star realm."
"This is already a kind of limit strength for the Flying Heaven Realm."
"Second-tier Eight Star Pulses, indeed well-deserved." Elder Yun sighed with emotion.
As the 'Grand Steward' of the Seven Star Civilization, Elder Yun's vision is extremely high, far exceeding ordinary demigods.
"According to the information Li Yuan sent me, he should have had a breakthrough in Law perception, and his spear technique is comparable to the mid-stage of the seventh stage." Fang Hai said: "Stepping into the Flying Heaven Realm, his star arts transformed, and his Law perception progress is indeed amazing, it should be close to me."
"In terms of Law aptitude."
"Even Master is probably not as good as him." Fang Hai shook his head: "Li Yuan's strength will continue to improve, I'm afraid before becoming a demigod, he can truly rival a peak demigod with his Flying Heaven body."
Peak demigod, limit demigod, usually Level 45 or 46, just because of weapons and Law perception levels, there will be differences in strength.
Level 47, must reach Seven Star Pulses to reach, which is quite rare among demigods, and most have hope of reaching the Void God threshold, and can be called 'demigod invincible'.
As for Level 48, it requires Eight Star Pulses, which is extremely rare even in the Divine Realm.
"Has hope of rivaling a peak demigod."
"It's just that his Yuan Force and star arts have basically reached the limit. If he wants to further improve his strength, he can only work hard to make his spear technique stronger." Elder Yun said: "It's just that although he combines two major Laws, it is difficult for Law perception to rival a limit demigod, or even reach the Void God threshold, it will take more time."
"Indeed difficult."
"Before I broke through to demigod, my Law perception was at the mid-stage of the seventh stage, and now it is still at the mid-stage of the seventh stage perception." Fang Hai shook his head.
Mid-stage seventh stage perception is the peak demigod level.
High-stage seventh stage perception is the limit demigod level.
If Law perception can reach the perfection level of the seventh stage, there is hope to ignite the divine fire and achieve Void God.
"With Li Yuan's strength, the war on Lantie Star should be ending soon." Fang Hai said: "Since the Myriad Demon Civilization chose to assassinate him, they must have used their strongest combat power, and there is a high probability that there are no other demigods."
Elder Yun couldn't help but nod.
"Li Yuan's strength is exposed, so there is no need to continue to cultivate in secret." Elder Yun smiled: "Moreover, his strength is already in the top ten in the entire civilization, so there is no need to continue to be low-key."
"Your meaning?" Fang Hai's heart stirred.
"Let him return to Blue Star, such strength should come into contact with some of the highest secrets of the entire civilization." Elder Yun said: "Master doesn't know when he will return, you two should take on the heavy burden."
"According to Master's instructions, after another period of time."
"It's about time to let Li Yuan go to the Nine Leaf World." Elder Yun said: "With his strength, passing the Nine Leaf trial is not difficult... By then, with you two sitting in town, even if Master goes far away, the entire Seven Star Civilization will still be as stable as Mount Tai."
"Good."
"When the Lantie Star war ends, I will sign the transfer order." Fang Hai nodded.
Lantie Star, Jianshanwan City.
Li Yuan performed mind-soul control, which lasted for about eight hours, and Demigod Sang Qiu opened her eyes again.
She looked at the black-clothed man standing not far away, her eyes full of respect.
"Master." Demigod Sang Qiu said respectfully.
"Good." Li Yuan opened his eyes, and there was a trace of fatigue in his eyes; he could clearly feel the invisible soul connection between himself and Demigod Sang Qiu.
This was his third soul servant.
And also the first demigod-level servant.
"Tell me all the intelligence you know about the Myriad Demon Civilization, especially about Lantie Star." Li Yuan said: "As soon as possible."
