Chapter 534: I Am Not Willing
Wearing wide robes, with sunken eye sockets and a skeletal appearance, Hall Master Si Wu stepped into the hall.
With his status in the Myriad God Hall, logically, if there were something, he should summon others to pay him a visit.
Today, he took the initiative to see Li Yuan, which was unusual.
"Brother Seven Stars." Hall Master Si Wu laughed, but with his appearance, laughing was uglier than crying.
"General Hall Master." Li Yuan stood up and laughed: "Please sit."
Whoosh!
Li Yuan waved his hand and set up a desk, and on the desk were many fine wines and delicacies.
"Heaven Branch Blazing Fruit Wine? Not bad, this wine is very rare." Hall Master Si Wu laughed and sat down.
Li Yuan also sat down and smiled: "When fighting outside, I passed by the Heaven Branch Life Spring Realm and bought some. If the General Hall Master likes it, I still have quite a bit."
Li Yuan said this, but felt a trace of curiosity in his heart.
Based on his understanding of General Hall Master Si Wu, the other party could be called an ascetic and had never had any rumors of enjoyment.
Delicacies? Fine wine? Women? None at all!
General Hall Master Si Wu, in this life, besides cultivation, was managing the Myriad God Hall... It was precisely because he was selfless that he possessed such high prestige in the Myriad God Hall, and no one was unconvinced.
Today, why was the other party so polite?
"No need to give it to me, just tasting it is enough." General Hall Master Si Wu tasted a sip of the immortal brew and put it back down.
"Brother Seven Stars, coming to see you today is to specifically notify you that after the Elder Meeting resolution." Hall Master Si Wu said directly: "You have officially become the thirteenth Elder Hall Master of our Myriad God Hall."
Li Yuan's heart stirred.
Finally here!
Regarding becoming an Elder Hall Master, Li Yuan was not surprised, and his heart could not be called excited; after all, in his plan, he would be leaving soon.
Becoming or not becoming an Elder Hall Master actually had little meaning.
However, Li Yuan still appeared very excited on the surface: "Thank you, General Hall Master, thank you to all the Elder Hall Masters for your trust."
"This is what you deserve; your strength and contributions match all of this." Hall Master Si Wu laughed: "Becoming an Elder Hall Master means you are qualified to come into contact with the ultimate secret of our Myriad God Hall. Follow me."
Hall Master Si Wu stood up directly and flew outside the hall.
Ultimate secret? Li Yuan's heart stirred, and he followed quickly.
Whoosh! Whoosh! The two moved forward all the way, flying upward continuously, passing through many True God palaces and Elder palaces, finally arriving at the extreme height of the World Tree.
This place had always been a forbidden area, and even ordinary True Gods were not allowed to come, always covered by countless World Tree leaves.
And here, on that huge, thick World Tree trunk, there was actually a huge hole.
"Inside the World Tree?" Li Yuan was slightly surprised.
"The Holy Tree has a spirit." Hall Master Si Wu said slowly: "Therefore, some true secrets of our Myriad God Hall are hidden inside the Holy Tree. Although the Spirit of the Holy Tree can only mobilize a little power, it can still easily kill a Heavenly Monarch... At the very least, if there is an external enemy invasion, it can notify us immediately."
Li Yuan nodded slightly; in fact, as his strength gradually improved, he could feel that the life origin of the World Tree was probably far beyond that of a Heavenly God...
It was just that this type of spiritual tree is like the origin of a world and cannot mobilize its own power at will.
Being able to mobilize a little power to kill a Heavenly Monarch was already very rare.
Hum~ On the trunk above the tree hole, a large face faintly appeared, and a voice came: "Hall Master Seven Stars, welcome to the 'Life Holy Hall'."
"This is the Spirit of the Holy Tree, and also the guardian spirit of our Myriad God Hall." Hall Master Si Wu said: "Not long after the World Tree was born, the World Tree origin produced consciousness."
"Greetings, Spirit of the Holy Tree." Li Yuan said; the other party should be an existence similar to Senior Dream.
"Hmm, this is our first meeting. From now on, as long as you are in the Life God Realm, you can contact me directly." The large face on the trunk said: "I hope you will not disappoint the Life God King."
Li Yuan's heart stirred; disappoint? What did that mean?
"Brother Seven Stars, come in." Hall Master Si Wu did not explain and took Li Yuan into the huge tree hole.
The tree hole passage was hundreds of meters wide.
Time passed, and Li Yuan followed Hall Master Si Wu deep inside.
Inside the World Tree, there was a completely different world, with many formation restrictions and many secret halls, hiding various weapons, magic treasures, and a large amount of absolute art inheritance.
Among them, many were Heavenly God absolute arts and even God King inheritances.
This also solved many of Li Yuan's doubts.
The Myriad God Hall was inherited from the God King; logically, it shouldn't be as impoverished as it appeared before.
"Over long years, there has been no Heavenly God born, and even the number of Seven-Star True Gods is very small. Plus the Myriad Spring Void is narrow and various resources are insufficient, so we find it difficult to even refine True God weapons... these Heavenly God weapons have to be used sparingly." Hall Master Si Wu sighed lightly: "Those absolute art inheritances are the same... If we don't add any restrictions to the inheritance, I am afraid that before long, the 'intent' contained in the many inheritance jade books will be exhausted."
"Therefore, generally, only Hall Masters are qualified to come and accept Heavenly God inheritance."
"Only Elder Hall Masters are qualified to come into contact with the God Kings' inheritance absolute arts." Hall Master Si Wu said: "In the past God Realm, there were countless powerhouses, but most inheritances were lost. Our Myriad God Hall has only collected 39 God King inheritances in total."
Li Yuan nodded lightly.
Here, after all, was the accumulation of a God Realm; even if only a little remained, it was still very shocking.
"But bringing you here today is not to tell you these things; these cannot be counted as the ultimate secret." Hall Master Si Wu looked at Li Yuan: "Brother Seven Stars, your talent is so high that it can be called the first since the founding of our Myriad God Hall. Do you know what the glimmer of life that the Life God King pursued back then was?"
Li Yuan shook his head: "I don't know."
These matters were not mentioned at all in the Myriad God Hall database.
"Back then, in that war in the God Realm, even Heavenly Gods were barely qualified to participate." Hall Master Si Wu sighed: "We kept losing, star domain after star domain was destroyed, and finally we retreated to the Life God King's hometown star domain; this was the last fortress."
"In the hometown star domain, the God King was nearly invincible, and with the Life God King's strength being heaven-toppling, the Immortal Ancestor could do nothing."
Li Yuan listened.
According to what he knew, in the hometown star domain, the God King could mobilize terrifying power and seemed not to fear the God Emperor.
The Immortal Ancestor, he did not know if it was one person or a group.
But being able to start such a massive war and nearly destroy a God Realm, at the very least, it should be a "God Emperor" level of power.
"The area where our Myriad Spring Void and Nine Thousand Worlds are located is the Life God King's hometown star domain." Hall Master Si Wu added.
Li Yuan understood.
"But although the Life God King was strong, there was eventually a day he would die, and he also encountered a great calamity." Hall Master Si Wu said slowly: "Many things... we no longer know the truth."
"We only know the result is that the Life God King and all the Heavenly Gods went to their deaths, the Myriad Spring Void was opened, and the Immortal Ancestor's power could no longer directly penetrate... Only then was the pseudo-Heavenly Dao established, entering the 'Dao Extinction Era,' and there were no more clashes at the God King and Heavenly God levels."
"Then the seven great Dao Ancestors were born, and the Nine Thousand Worlds were opened, confronting us until now."
"Originally, according to the Life God King's prediction, after the Myriad Spring Void was opened, as long as another God King was born, there would be a greater opportunity... But the later matters, you also know, the pseudo-Heavenly Dao shrouded everything, and not even one Heavenly God has been born since." Hall Master Si Wu said in a low voice: "High-Star Pulse geniuses are also extremely rare."
Li Yuan sighed in his heart.
Indeed! The operation of the Great Dao between heaven and earth is flawed; if True Gods cannot comprehend the basic laws, how can they become Heavenly Gods?
If the overall law comprehension is not enough and resources are not enough, how can there be high-Star Pulse geniuses?
This is a great sorrow.
"Like me, comprehending the Wood Great Dao to the ninth-stage perfection, I have never been able to take the final step." Hall Master Si Wu said slowly.
He had such high prestige, which was related to his conduct and also related to his strength.
"However!"
"A very special supreme treasure left by the Life God King still retains the last glimmer of hope." Hall Master Si Wu turned to look at Li Yuan: "That is, if a very powerful Demigod can obtain the recognition of this supreme treasure, and then comprehend the Law of Space at the True God stage... there is hope to break the shackles of heaven and earth and directly become a God King with the Law of Space as the foundation."
"The Law of Space is the foundation of heaven and earth; even the pseudo-Heavenly Dao cannot completely shroud it."
"Becoming a God King should be able to destroy the 'pseudo-Heavenly Dao'."
Li Yuan's heart shook.
Comprehending the Law of Space at the True God stage? Directly achieving God King? This is what kind of crazy idea.
At the same time, Li Yuan also felt a trace of ominousness.
Obtaining this supreme treasure requires Demigod recognition, but Hall Master Si Wu found him to say these things?
Could it be?
"Brother Seven Stars, do you still want to continue hiding your 'Demigod' identity?" Hall Master Si Wu said in a low voice.
Boom!
Li Yuan sighed in his heart, understanding that he had been recognized.
"The Spirit of the Holy Tree, although unable to mobilize the World Tree's power, has life-probing abilities comparable to a Heavenly God. From the first day you arrived at the World Tree, I already knew your identity." Hall Master Si Wu continued: "The Dream Realm Stone's ability to shroud aura can only deceive those below Heavenly God."
"Hall Master Si Wu, I did not intend to hide it." Li Yuan said, his heart stirring, and he put away the Dream Realm Stone's pressure shroud, revealing his true aura.
That was the special aura belonging to the Demigod realm.
"Hall Master Si Wu, I did hide some things, but I have absolutely no malice toward the Myriad God Hall; on the contrary, I highly recognize the Myriad God Hall's purpose." Li Yuan said: "I also really want to destroy the Dao Court."
These were all Li Yuan's true thoughts.
"I know."
"I not only know you want to destroy the Dao Court, I even know you should have a special means to plunder Immortal Book spiritual light." Hall Master Si Wu said: "Immortal Book spiritual light?"
Li Yuan was shocked.
"The immortals on the Ascension Book, the reason they are controlled by the Ascension Book, is because their primordial spirits contain a wisp of Immortal Book spiritual light." Hall Master Si Wu sighed softly: "Under normal circumstances, even if this immortal dies, this wisp of Immortal Book spiritual light will return to the Ascension Book."
"However!"
"All the Immortal Book spiritual light of the Dao Court immortals killed by you was plundered." Hall Master Si Wu looked at Li Yuan and said: "This is also one of the reasons why the Dao Court is so urgent and crazy about wanting to kill you."
Li Yuan heard this and instantly thought of the Killing Crystal.
Could it be that the "Killing Tears" contained in the Killing Crystal are what that so-called Immortal Book spiritual light has transformed into?
"I only found out about this recently." Hall Master Si Wu added.
In fact, it was precisely knowing about the "Immortal Book spiritual light" matter that made Hall Master Si Wu decide to support Li Yuan.
At the very least, Hall Master Si Wu felt that the possibility of Li Yuan being a Dao Court spy was already extremely small.
"Brother Seven Stars."
"Are you willing to try the Life God King's ultimate test? Obtain the recognition of that supreme treasure?" Hall Master Si Wu looked at Li Yuan: "For the Myriad God Hall, for our world, to gamble for that glimmer of life?"
"The test left by the Life God King is extremely difficult."
"But you are the most hopeful one we have been able to wait for in long years." Hall Master Si Wu's voice carried a trace of longing.
"What happens if I fail?" Li Yuan couldn't help but ask.
"If you fail, you will be fine, just unable to try again." Hall Master Si Wu sighed lightly: "But I believe you can succeed."
"If even you fail, I can't think of any other latecomer who could surpass you."
Regarding talent.
Li Yuan, placed in the vast and broad hometown God Realm, is a rare occurrence in ten million years.
Placed in the Myriad Spring Void? Under normal circumstances, one might not be born in ten billion years.
"This is already the last hope of our Myriad God Hall."
"Once we drag it out, after another million years, a large number of Life Spring Realms will decay, and I am afraid we will face a catastrophe." Hall Master Si Wu shook his head: "But if you succeed, in the future once you become a God King, the entire heaven and earth will be reborn because of you."
"Brother Seven Stars, are you willing to try?" Hall Master Si Wu looked at Li Yuan.
He believed Li Yuan would not refuse; after all, this matter only had benefits, and even if he failed, there were no bad consequences.
However, after a long silence.
"General Hall Master, sorry, I don't want to deceive you." Li Yuan said in a low voice: "I am not willing."

"Chief Hall Master, I apologize, but I do not wish to deceive you," Li Yuan said in a low voice. "I am unwilling."
