Chapter 521: I Can Also Be an Ancestor! Immortal Cultivation Major Sect (6k)
Source Fire Realm, inside Li Yuan's mansion.
"Little Bing, after 120 years of separation, you must have experienced many trials." Li Yuan sighed softly, looking at Liu Bing, whose body was coiled in front of him.
In the Emperor Source Realm, the flow of time is different from the starry sky of the Divine Domain, being about ten times faster.
Therefore, twelve years had passed in the Source Fire Realm, but 120 years had passed for Liu Bing in the Emperor Source Realm.
"In the end, I did not live up to Big Brother's expectations, nor Senior Qiu's expectations; I have succeeded." Liu Bing said in a low voice.
Compared to 120 years ago, her appearance had not changed, and her cultivation base was still a Demigod, but the aura she emitted had changed significantly; she had completely shed her childishness and become increasingly sharp.
Before entering the Emperor Source Realm back then, she seemed to be growing rapidly, but in reality, she was less than a few dozen years old, even younger than Li Yuan.
More than a hundred years had passed, and it was normal in Li Yuan's view for her temperament to change.
As long as she came back alive, it was fine.
"Have you succeeded in the Nine-Star Pulse?" Li Yuan smiled.
"Big Brother has a discerning eye." Liu Bing was slightly surprised; she hadn't told Big Brother yet.
Li Yuan smiled slightly. Just now, when the two met, he had already understood Liu Bing's background under the investigation of his Divine Palace.
"Starting from a Second-Rank Seven-Star Pulse and finally succeeding in the Nine-Star Pulse is rare." Li Yuan said. "Placed in the history of the Sky Snake Race, it is ranked at the top."
There are many major and minor forces in the Divine Domain. Except for major forces at the Divine Court level, most forces cannot provide rare treasures like the 'Juexing Sacred Fruit' to supply their elite Demigods for a long time.
Therefore, it is extremely difficult for those weaker forces to give birth to Nine-Star Pulse Demigods.
Although God King Tianqing was a disciple of God Emperor Juexing, he was not a member of the Chaos Divine Court... just like Li Yuan's two surviving Senior Brothers, only God King Dongmang was a member of the Chaos Divine Court.
The other one was not.
When God King Tianqing was alive, the Sky Snake Race flourished. Later, he returned to the 'God Emperor Island of Juexing Continent', and the Sky Snake Race gradually declined... until it was completely destroyed...
Liu Bing's achievements in the Demigod Realm could be ranked in the top ten in the history of the Sky Snake Race.
"It was also thanks to Big Brother's luck." Liu Bing said in a low voice. "Without the successive miraculous encounters on Juexing Continent and Source Fire Star, I wouldn't have become a Nine-Star Pulse."
"Among those who can become a Nine-Star Pulse, who doesn't have miraculous encounters?" Li Yuan shook his head. "In this vast heaven and earth, are there few opportunities?"
Even something as heaven-defying as the Heart-Mind Divine Palace had had thirty-five masters before, but they all failed in the end.
"Senior Qiu has completely departed." Liu Bing suddenly said in a low voice.
Li Yuan was stunned for a moment.
Venerable Qiu Bing?
"When I was roaming in the Emperor Source Realm, the wisp of remnant soul left by Senior Qiu finally dissipated." Liu Bing continued.
Li Yuan sighed in his heart.
For someone like Venerable Qiu Bing who had died long ago, that wisp of remnant soul was actually just a spiritual imprint... this was something no one could save.
But it was beyond Li Yuan's expectation that the other party dissipated so quickly.
"Back then, Senior Qiu's remnant soul fused with the source of the Civilization Mothership. Logically, it could have lasted for tens of thousands of years without extinguishing... It was because it forcibly broke away from the source of the Civilization Mothership and then fused into the Sky Snake Palace that the already scarce spiritual imprint was consumed rapidly, so it completely dissipated in less than two hundred years." Liu Bing said gloomily.
Her relationship with Venerable Qiu Bing was like teacher and father.
Li Yuan suddenly understood.
Li Yuan also understood in his heart why Venerable Qiu Bing would do this... back then in the Mingxu Star Realm, Little Bing had just been born, and he himself was only a Source Martial Artist. Venerable Qiu Bing was probably worried, so he decided to follow and protect the path.
This protection lasted for two hundred years.
It could be considered as escorting Liu Bing on her final journey.
"Before leaving, being able to witness your success in the Nine-Star Pulse, Senior Qiu must have had no regrets." Li Yuan said.
"Hmm." Liu Bing nodded.
"Little Bing, what are your plans next?" Li Yuan asked.
"Big Brother." Liu Bing said. "I have become a Nine-Star Pulse and successfully obtained the Emperor Source. I am prepared to first cultivate the two great perfect star techniques, 'Law of Heaven and Earth' and 'Feathers of the Nine Heavens', and then I am prepared to break through to become a True God."
As a Nine-Star Pulse Demigod, with an internally born 'Second Fire Seed', plus the Emperor Source, one can cultivate two perfect star techniques.
This is the huge advantage of a Nine-Star Pulse compared to an Eight-Star Pulse.
"Are you not cultivating 'True Explanation of the Void'?" Li Yuan was puzzled.
Before entering the Emperor Source Realm, Liu Bing's goal was to cultivate 'True Explanation of the Void'.
"No."
"Before, I longed to cultivate 'True Explanation of the Void' to pursue the Nine-Star Pulse... but now that I have become a Nine-Star Pulse, 'True Explanation of the Void' is no longer a necessity for me." Liu Bing said frankly.
"You are already a Nine-Star Pulse, it is not difficult to become a Heavenly God." Li Yuan frowned. "Cultivating 'Feathers of the Nine Heavens' can certainly exert your greatest advantage and make your escape technique invincible among your peers, but cultivating 'True Explanation of the Void' can make your probability of becoming a God King greater."
For a Nine-Star Pulse Demigod, there is no great difficulty in becoming a Heavenly God.
"Big Brother, the paths are different."
"'Feathers of the Nine Heavens' is a perfect star technique created by the Chaos God Emperor after observing many God Kings and Star Beast Emperors, belonging to the Wind Law lineage." Liu Bing said. "What I am walking now is the path of the ancestor, God King Tianqing. To cultivate the ancestor's unique skills and finally achieve the 'Fleshly Body Heaven and Earth', I must cultivate these two great perfect star techniques."
To her own Big Brother, she naturally wouldn't hide anything.
Having reached the current level of strength, Liu Bing was already able to speak of secrets that could not be spoken of in the past.
"God King Tianqing's path?" Li Yuan understood instantly.
Everything was as he had guessed before; Little Bing had indeed obtained God King Tianqing's inheritance.
Li Yuan naturally also knew about 'Fleshly Body Heaven and Earth'.
Just like after becoming a True God, the soul path is divided into three levels: Heart-Mind Void, Heart-Mind True Realm, and Heart-Mind Universe.
After becoming a God, one further cultivates the fleshly body, and the fleshly body is also divided into many levels, the highest two of which are 'Fleshly Body Immortality' and 'Fleshly Body Heaven and Earth'.
The former often requires an extremely powerful existence among Heavenly Gods to have hope of cultivating it.
The latter, 'Fleshly Body Heaven and Earth', is something only a few God Kings can achieve.
Fleshly Body Heaven and Earth, using a heaven and earth as the source, can condense a source bloodline, which is the source of top-level divine beasts. Relying on this bloodline, one can easily reach the peak of True God.
According to what Li Yuan knows, many divine beasts in the Divine Domain, except for the Divine Dragon Race... the sources of other top-level divine beasts are God Kings at the Fleshly Body Heaven and Earth level.
Like the Sacred Blood Sky Snake, it was formed by the bloodline condensed by God King Tianqing.
"So God King Tianqing's unique skills actually require cultivating the two great perfect star techniques, 'Law of Heaven and Earth' and 'Feathers of the Nine Heavens'." Li Yuan sighed inwardly.
This was something he hadn't known in the past.
God Kings are all terrifying existences that traverse the Divine Domain, and their paths are mostly very miraculous.
"Fine, since you have already decided, as your Big Brother, I won't persuade you anymore." Li Yuan said.
Li Yuan didn't even know if he could smoothly reach the God King level, so how could he dare to say he could choose the most correct path for Liu Bing?
"After becoming a True God, I should head to the Mohe Star Domain." Liu Bing said. "At that time, I will join Senior Dongfang's 'Seven-Star Divine Kingdom' and concurrently serve as the Inspection Envoy of the Mohe Star Domain."
As a core member of the Chaos Divine Court, there are many benefits to enjoy, but one must also bear responsibilities.
Like Li Yuan, who can be relatively relaxed.
But for Purple-robed Demigods like Liu Bing, once they become Gods, everything must be done according to the rules, and even God Kings will not easily make exceptions.
Without rules, there is no order.
The Chaos Divine Court has been passed down to this day, and many rules must be observed even by those as high in status as God King Dongmang.
Otherwise, how can all parties be at ease?
"Good." Li Yuan naturally had no objections and instructed, "Once you become a God, you will be a Nine-Star True God body, and your bloodline will be excavated to the limit... plus you cultivate two great star techniques, I am afraid your strength will rapidly reach the Heavenly God level."
After condensing the God Heart, the source power of True Gods will no longer be divided into level 60, level 61, level 62, etc... but will directly condense and stabilize the God Body with Star Pulses.
Heavenly Gods and God Kings are also the same.
A Nine-Star True God, the strength of the God Body is enough to rival a Seven-Star Heavenly God...
If it is a Ten-Star True God, the strength of the God Body can even rival an Eight-Star Heavenly God.
"But still remember, don't easily expose your true identity." Li Yuan said solemnly. "The enemy that destroyed your Sky Snake Race must be terrifying in strength. Once they notice you have become a Nine-Star Pulse, I am afraid they will do everything in their power to kill you."
"Although you have the Divine Court as your backing, the Divine Court is not invincible, and some enemies are unscrupulous."
"As for revenge, wait until the future, when both of us siblings have become Heavenly Gods, then it won't be too late to plan slowly." Li Yuan was worried that Liu Bing wouldn't be able to hold back.
Having lived together for many years, Li Yuan was clear about the thoughts of revenge hidden deep in Liu Bing's heart.
Without great obsession, would she have cultivated so crazily?
"Hmm, Big Brother, I understand." Liu Bing nodded.
"In addition, so much time has passed. Once you join the Seven-Star Divine Kingdom, my Seven-Star Civilization will be considered stable." Li Yuan said. "By the next space window period, I may not be able to return on time... at that time, I will have to trouble you."
Li Yuan knew that once Liu Bing became a True God, relying solely on the advantages of her God Body star techniques and bloodline, her strength would likely be even stronger than Dongfang Ji's.
"Big Brother, don't worry, I am also a member of the Seven-Star Civilization." Liu Bing said hurriedly; she also had feelings for the Seven-Star Civilization.
"There is one more thing."
"Those Void Gods and Demigods of the Xianxu Civilization from back then, you should take them away this time as well, find a place in the Ziwei Star Domain, and settle them down." Li Yuan flipped his palm and handed over a cave-heaven magic treasure.
"Good." Liu Bing said.
……
After sending Liu Bing away, Li Yuan didn't delay any longer and got up to fly out of the Source Fire Star.
Whoosh!
Liu Bing returned to her long-lost mansion palace. The palace was empty and quiet to the point of being terrifying.
"Senior Qiu." Liu Bing murmured to herself. Her eyes were coldly terrifying, no longer the excitement and joy she had when she was with Li Yuan.
Liu Bing closed her eyes gently, and scenes from the past hundred-plus years emerged in her mind.
Multiple life-and-death crises, she had tried her best to break through, which also allowed her will to finally reach the True God level.
She recalled even more scenes of Venerable Qiu Bing before he passed away.
"Little Bing! In the end, I failed to see you become a Heavenly God, but being able to become a Nine-Star Pulse is enough to set my heart at ease."
"But you must never slack off."
"The path of cultivation is about fighting! Fighting with heaven and earth, fighting with ten thousand cultivators. Li Yuan treats you extremely well and will also help you with all his might, but this can only be the icing on the cake and must never be relied upon."
"Only when you yourself become a God King can you be fearless of everything and reproduce the highest glory of my Sky Snake Race."
"And only then can you completely kill 'God Monarch Guyuan' of the Abyss Divine Court. I suspect that behind that God Monarch, it was actually a God King of the Abyss Divine Court who ordered and took action, otherwise my Sky Snake Race wouldn't have had even one Heavenly God escape... deeper secrets will need to be explored by yourself."
…… Liu Bing sat quietly in the palace, recalling the past scenes.
In the past, whenever she was in a daze like this, Venerable Qiu Bing would always tease her via transmission: "Missing your Big Brother again?"
Now, the palace was cold and quiet to the point of being terrifying.
"From now on." "I am the one with the highest seniority in the Sky Snake Race." Liu Bing murmured to herself, which was also a kind of warning to herself: "One day, I will also have countless Sky Snake descendants respectfully call me 'Ancestor Qing Tian Bing'."
Whoosh!
Liu Bing got up, purchased many treasures at the Myriad Worlds Chamber of Commerce, and then rapidly left the Source Fire Star.
……
According to the mission instructions.
Taking the teleportation array.
Li Yuan arrived at a small star. All around was endless void, and at the end of the void, a star could be vaguely seen... but through the soul connection with Liu Bing, Li Yuan could easily confirm that it should be the Source Fire Star.
It was just that they were separated by a relatively long distance, and it was a bit difficult to distinguish.
"Is this the entrance to the Emperor Source Realm?" Li Yuan was secretly surprised.
Most of the trial missions for Source Fire Realm Demigods were located outside the Source Fire Star.
Li Yuan didn't expect that the entrance to the Emperor Source Realm belonged to the same starry sky as the Source Fire Realm.
"Whoosh!"
!.
The void in the distance trembled slightly, and a burly figure appeared out of thin air. He was wearing heavy black battle armor and had two horns on his head.
"Heavenly God God Ling Wei." Li Yuan bowed and saluted.
The person who came was one of the Heavenly God managers of the Source Fire Star. Li Yuan had seen him in the Heart Dream Divine Realm.
Just to enter the Emperor Source Realm, a Heavenly God had to appear, which showed the special nature of the Emperor Source Realm mission.
"The Emperor Source Realm mission can only be accepted by Purple-robed Demigods." Heavenly God God Ling Wei smiled. "Li Yuan, with your strength, it shouldn't be difficult to complete it... but I think you know the rules; the Emperor Source Realm mission is not fixed and requires some luck."
"Understood." Li Yuan nodded.
Before coming, he had already read through all the 'Emperor Source Realm' missions he could get with his own authority.
There were mainly three points: danger, mystery, and uncertainty.
The trial missions were very dangerous, but the missions experienced by each Source Fire Realm member were almost all different, and the locations were extremely mysterious... in short, the methods of the Chaos God Emperor were very inconceivable.
"Follow me." Heavenly God God Ling Wei said. An invisible force wrapped around Li Yuan, and they rapidly flew towards the depths of this small star.
Along the way, space and time changed, and the scenery kept changing.
This made Li Yuan understand that the small star he saw just now was probably just a disguise.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Heavenly God God Ling Wei and Li Yuan landed slowly.
"That is the entrance to the Emperor Source Realm." Heavenly God God Ling Wei pointed into the distance. What came into Li Yuan's eyes were circles of huge silver ripples, just like a space vortex.
Li Yuan could not perceive what was on the other side of the vortex.
"Li Yuan, the Emperor Source Realm is special. We in the outside world cannot judge your life or death. Many means such as soul lamps, soul connections, and soul imprints will all fail." Heavenly God God Ling Wei said in a low voice. "Therefore, the basis for us to judge your success is that you return alive."
Li Yuan nodded. Like when Liu Bing entered the Emperor Source Realm before, the soul connection between them was completely severed.
"Secondly, remember, you must never break through to become a God in the Emperor Source Realm." Heavenly God God Ling Wei said. "If you become a God, the reception order will fail... and you will never be able to return."
"The flow of time in the Emperor Source Realm is ten times that of the outside world. Therefore, if you do not return in ninety years... we will judge that you have failed and died." Heavenly God God Ling Wei looked at Li Yuan. "In the Emperor Source Realm, everything depends on yourself."
"Go."
Li Yuan didn't hesitate any longer. He turned into a stream of light and completely submerged into the mysterious silver vortex.
Leaving Heavenly God God Ling Wei alone outside.
"With Li Yuan's strength, there shouldn't be any accidents, right." Heavenly God God Ling Wei thought to himself. "However, throughout the ages, the more powerful the Demigod, the more special the mission. If he can succeed, the final harvest will be even greater."
"I wonder what Li Yuan's mission will be."
……
Just after entering the space vortex, Li Yuan felt as if he were in a mysterious heaven and earth, with nothingness all around.
"Even spiritual sense can't be used?" Li Yuan felt extremely uncomfortable. The surrounding space seemed to be distorted, and the flow of time was changing.
Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh~
In Li Yuan's horizon, in the original place of nothingness, strange spheres suddenly appeared out of thin air. Most of those spheres were purple, and only a very few emitted seven-colored light.
"A mission?" Li Yuan had read many materials and knew some situations.
Hum~ An invisible fluctuation swept across Li Yuan's entire body, making Li Yuan involuntarily feel as if he had been seen through.
The next moment!
Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh! Those countless spheres flickered, and immediately after, a 'seven-colored sphere' suddenly erupted with soaring light, and the light directly submerged the entire land of nothingness.
It also submerged Li Yuan.
Boom!
A large amount of information surged into Li Yuan's mind.
"Emperor Source Realm trial mission: Enter the Myriad Springs Void, slaughter the powerhouses of various Dao Courts. The more you slaughter, the greater the reward. When the Slaughter Crystal is full, the mission is complete, and the Return Order can be activated. If the Return Order is activated before the Slaughter Crystal is full, the mission is failed..."
Hum~ An invisible fluctuation swept past, and Li Yuan's consciousness had completely sunk.
In a situation Li Yuan didn't know.
Whoosh~ In this land of nothingness, another more mysterious space channel formed, and an invisible force directly swallowed Li Yuan, and then the transmission began.
This transmission lasted for a long time...
……
"Hmm?"
"What is this? Did I just fall asleep?" Li Yuan woke up suddenly, and then felt bursts of sensations, being in endless darkness, with special forces flowing past his side.
"Light?"
Li Yuan saw a huge ring of light in the distance at a glance, and subconsciously drilled into that huge ring of light, immediately flying out of the endless dark zone.
"Where is this?"
Li Yuan looked around. Ice and snow covered the earth. This was a vast and boundless land. Ice and snow covered countless forests, and the lakes in the distance were frozen. Occasionally, some animals could be seen.
The earth could not be seen at a glance.
There was a huge sun in the high sky, shining on the entire heaven and earth.
"What a stable space."
"It is much more stable than Juexing Continent. If I strike with all my might, I am afraid I will only cause a few cracks in the space." Li Yuan was secretly shocked, sensing the surroundings with his spiritual sense.
Fortunately!
Although his spiritual sense was suppressed, it was not unusable.
From the surrounding environment, Li Yuan could initially judge that the heaven and earth in front of him should be a relatively normal world that could allow life to multiply.
"However, where exactly is this?" Li Yuan was secretly shocked. "My many tokens can't be sensed, and I can't even enter the Heart Dream Divine Realm?"
Li Yuan finally noticed the special nature of the Emperor Source Realm.
The Heart Dream Divine Realm is known to be accessible from anywhere in the Divine Realm.
But in the Emperor Source Realm, it was an exception.
"Could it be that I have come outside the Divine Realm?" A bold thought emerged in Li Yuan's heart.
Immediately, Li Yuan shook his head secretly; he was probably overthinking.
Whoosh!
Li Yuan closed his eyes gently. The mission information appeared in his mind, and at the same time, he sensed two auras in his Heart-Mind Void and Source Power Sea.
In the Heart-Mind Void, there was a nearly transparent triangular crystal that looked both real and illusory, emitting a strange aura.
In the Source Power Sea, that mysterious force vaguely condensed into a token, emitting space-time fluctuations.
"This triangular crystal should be the Slaughter Crystal mentioned in the mission." Li Yuan thought thoughtfully. "And the token in the Source Power Sea is the Return Order?"
Li Yuan could confirm that as long as he was willing, he could activate the Return Order to return at any time.
It was just that it would mean the trial mission had failed.
"Enter the Myriad Springs Void, slaughter the powerhouses of various Dao Courts, and make the Slaughter Crystal full?" Li Yuan thought to himself. "Where is this Myriad Springs Void? Dao Court powerhouses? How strong will their strength be?"
Everything was a mystery.
The trial mission didn't say in detail.
"I can only take it one step at a time." Li Yuan thought to himself. "In history, those Purple-robed Demigods who entered the Emperor Source Realm were far inferior to me in strength, but each of them also had the strength of the Void God limit. It was so difficult for them to complete the mission, so I shouldn't be too relaxed either."
"And my trial mission is probably quite special."
Li Yuan hadn't forgotten that the mission sphere he sensed in the mission land emitted seven-colored light.
Purple spheres and seven-colored spheres were essentially different.
"This world has extremely rich source power and a large number of lives. Hmm, it seems there are humans?" Li Yuan's spiritual sense was released cautiously, sensing the surroundings. "There should be practitioners."
"First, investigate the intelligence."
Arriving in a strange place, the first thing to do was to figure out where this was, and then plan from there.
……
Changyun Great World, territory of the Anshun Hou Fu, inside the top-level sect 'Xueqing Sect'.
As the premier cultivation major sect within a million miles.
In the eyes of countless mortals, the Xueqing Sect was the supreme existence, with countless cultivators who could fly and escape, and in legends, there were even 'Immortals' who had transcended the Nascent Soul and attained the Dao of longevity.
This is what is meant by a major sect of the Immortal Dao.
A branch of the Xueqing Sect occupied a vast area, where a large number of outer-sect disciples of Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment lived.
In the void, caves were opened up on void mountains, which were the residences of Nascent Soul semi-immortals.
On the void mountain at the very center, there was a huge palace at the top, in which a figure in fire-red robes sat cross-legged.
Whoosh!
Another stream of light flew down, which was an old man in green robes emitting an extraordinary aura.
"Sect Master, did you call me?" The green-robed old man bowed respectfully.
"The formation I set up just sensed that a team is passing by on the edge of our branch territory, and there should be several Nascent Soul cultivators among them." The figure in fire-red robes said slowly. "Capture them all. The number of Nascent Souls the headquarters wants us to gather this time should be enough."
"I have already sent you the coordinate location."
"Go and capture them immediately." The figure in fire-red robes said.
"Could they be from other sects?" The green-robed old man hesitated. If they were from other sects, it would easily trigger a war.
"I don't recognize them. I sensed the headquarters' 'Tai Xu Mirror' and didn't retrieve any data information. They shouldn't be cultivators from our Anshun Hou Fu territory." The figure in fire-red robes said lightly. "If you are afraid, it doesn't matter."
"Then this time, take your branch to make up the required number."
The green-robed old man's face changed, and he immediately said, "Sect Master, I will go and capture them now."
