Chapter 567: First Battle! Years of Cultivation (7k)

"Is there a time requirement?" Li Yuan immediately asked.

"No." The giant purple beast shook its head. "As long as you pass the two trials before breaking through to the Heavenly God realm, you will be considered successful. You can cultivate right here; there are some secret technique ruins left behind by the Supreme Supreme Hong Ying that might be of some help to you."

Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief inwardly.

In that case, the requirements for this trial were actually quite broad and not too high.

"You can also leave the Ancient Universe Realm and return to your hometown first, then come back to try again when you have enough confidence," the giant purple beast said. "However, you will not be able to use external objects then. So-called external objects refer to puppets, Dao talismans, secret treasures, and other powers you cannot control. You must pass the obstruction of the Ancient Universe Realm's native life forms alone to reach the Sovereign Hall."

Li Yuan couldn't help but nod.

In that case, it would be better to cultivate in seclusion here.

"Holy Spirit, you have been sensing my movements, so you should know that I have two companions," Li Yuan couldn't help but say. "If I cultivate in seclusion here and observe the ruins left by God Emperor Supreme Hong Ying, can they come out and observe them together?"

"No." The giant purple beast shook its head. "Unless you pass the second trial and completely master the Ancient Universe Realm, you can at most tell them that you have entered the Sovereign Hall, but the secrets within the Sovereign Hall are not allowed to be leaked."

"However."

The giant purple beast changed the subject. "I have seen those two little fellows, and their potential is quite good. I can help you send them to the outskirts of the Ancient Universe Realm... The outskirts have many treasure lands and ruins that are suitable for True Gods to explore. This is also the Master's kindness, giving other practitioners who break into the Ancient Universe Realm some opportunities. Many of the treasure lands were set up by the Master casually."

"Some opportunities will also be beneficial to them," the giant purple beast said.

"Then many thanks, Holy Spirit." Li Yuan was overjoyed.

"I must also remind you that while I can help you send them out, they must also abide by some of the rules of the Ancient Universe Realm," the giant purple beast said. "If they encounter danger and die, I will not intervene... For example, the large group of native Heavenly Gods you encountered this time."

"Originally, native Heavenly Gods stayed in their own worlds and were not allowed to go out..." the giant purple beast explained to Li Yuan.

Li Yuan gradually understood the situation of the Ancient Universe Realm.

The Ancient Universe Realm was divided from inside to outside into the Sovereign Hall, the Inner Domain, the Starry Mountain Range Region, and the Outer Domain.

The Inner Domain was the most vast and was where the hundred races of life lived.

The Outer Domain was a place where many treasure lands and ruins gathered and could not breed life.

The Starry Mountain Range Region isolated the Inner Domain from the Outer Domain.

"So, once an outsider breaks through to the Heavenly God realm, the strong practitioners of the hundred races in the Inner Domain can actively kill their way out and slaughter the outsider Heavenly Gods?" Li Yuan understood the reason.

Everything was because Heavenly God Xia Hao had stepped into the Heavenly God realm.

Otherwise, their group would never have encountered native Heavenly Gods in the Land of Lost Gods.

"In the process of hunting down outsider Heavenly Gods, if they encounter other outsiders, can they kill them as well?" Li Yuan frowned slightly. "Doing this is unfair to other outsiders."

"Fair?"

"Allowing outsiders to enter the Ancient Universe Realm to seize treasures is already the Master's kindness," the giant purple beast said indifferently. "Where is there any fairness in exploring life-and-death dangerous places? Among the candidates before you, there were those who, when they were at the Heavenly God realm and exploring the dark regions of the universe, were struck by the aftermath of a battle between two God Kings and fell."

Li Yuan was startled. They were that unlucky?

"Luck is also a part of cultivation."

The giant purple beast shook its head. "And no one forced these outsiders to enter... If they break in and their luck is bad, then they die."

"Since they dare to break in, they must be prepared for death."

Li Yuan sighed inwardly.

That was true!

The Ancient Domain of Buried Immortals would only appear in a certain mortal domain once every tens of millions of years. Let alone these True Gods, even most God Kings probably didn't know the specific operating rules.

Exploring unknown dangerous places was indeed full of risks.

In fact, most of the strong practitioners who descended into the Divine Domain this time came from the Mohe Star Region... Those from other star regions were a very small minority.

"Fine."

"Call your two companions out," the giant purple beast said. "I will send them away."

"Wait a moment, Holy Spirit," Li Yuan said.

Inside the Cave Heaven Treasure.

Hum~ An invisible force swept past, condensing into a phantom of Li Yuan. "Little Bing, Alliance Leader Dongfang."

"Li Yuan, how is the situation?" Dongfang Ji looked over.

"Big Brother?" Liu Bing was also quite worried.

Not long ago, during the great battle, that large group of native Heavenly Gods appeared in a mighty force. Li Yuan was worried that they would be affected and die, so he had directly taken them into the Cave Heaven Treasure.

The two had been full of worry, and Liu Bing was secretly blaming herself for being useless.

"The danger has been temporarily averted."

"I used a secret treasure bestowed by a God King to shake off that group of native Heavenly Gods, and I have now arrived at the Sovereign Hall," Li Yuan made up an excuse.

"Sovereign Hall?"

"The treasure land mentioned in the star map? Is it not a trap?" Liu Bing and Dongfang Ji were both shocked.

"It is not entirely a trap," Li Yuan said. "It involves some secrets that I cannot explain for now, and I cannot let you out."

Liu Bing and Dongfang Ji looked at each other.

Both of them were 'Purple-Clothed Half-Gods' from the Chaos Divine Court; how high was their vision?

Just from Li Yuan's few words, they already understood a lot.

"However, I can send you away and return directly to the outskirts of the Ancient Domain," Li Yuan said. "But remember, do not cross the Starry Mountain Range again..."

Li Yuan quickly told the two some of the information he had just learned about the 'Ancient Domain'.

"So, the hundred races of the Ancient Domain live in the Inner Domain, and there are a large number of Heavenly Gods?" Liu Bing and Dongfang Ji were both shocked.

"In addition."

"Heavenly God Xia Hao is currently being hunted by native Heavenly Gods, and his life is uncertain," Li Yuan said. "If he flees to the outskirts of the Ancient Domain, I'm afraid it will set off a bloody storm. After all, those native Heavenly Gods can hunt him all the way here. So I think, after you go back, you don't need to explore the Ancient Domain anymore; just return directly to the Seven Star Civilization."

"Fine." Dongfang Ji and Liu Bing nodded.

"In addition, Alliance Leader Dongfang." Li Yuan suddenly flipped his palm, and dozens of storage treasures fell into the void. "These are some treasures I exchanged for the Seven Star Civilization. You can take them back together. You decide how to arrange them in the civilization."

"Good." Dongfang Ji did not decline.

"Little Bing, these are some gifts I prepared for my family. I'll trouble you to take them back." Li Yuan took out some more treasures and gave them to Liu Bing.

Among them were the five Innate Law Fruits that God King Dongmang had given to Li Yuan.

Liu Bing nodded and accepted them.

Not long after, on this vast land, Li Yuan waved his hand, and Liu Bing and Dongfang Ji appeared out of thin air.

The surrounding space had long been distorted, preventing them from probing the true scene.

"Hum~" The giant purple beast in the distance pointed from afar, and an invisible wave swept past, causing Dongfang Ji and Liu Bing to disappear from where they were.

From then on, only Li Yuan remained.

"Li Yuan, do you want to try a battle first?" the giant purple beast said. "With your strength, as long as you are careful, there is no danger of death... And rest assured, there is no danger of death in the third stage of the trial. I will observe the whole process, and I will save you if there is a real danger."

"Good, then I'll try first." Li Yuan nodded quickly.

There was no need for the Holy Spirit of the universe to lie to him. Since he had to fight eventually, there was no harm in trying the opponent's strength first.

"Go." The giant purple beast said. "Once you enter the arena, the trial begins."

"Remember, you must defeat him head-on. If you hide in that Heavenly Divine City of yours, it won't count as a win," the giant purple beast said.

"Understood." Li Yuan nodded.

Whoosh!

Li Yuan moved his body and flew into the huge black arena. Following that, he used the Law of Heaven and Earth to transform into a ten-thousand-zhang body, his aura surging to the heavens.

Li Yuan even had the Silver Moon Divine Spear in his hand, not daring to be the slightest bit careless.

"Void God realm? And you want to challenge me?" The black-armored bald man's expression was cold. He didn't care if Li Yuan was a candidate or not.

As a life puppet, his duty was to defeat the challenger with all his might.

The moment Li Yuan stepped into the arena, his life aura suddenly surged.

Rumble!

With one step, he transformed into a ten-thousand-zhang towering figure. Golden Dao patterns appeared on the surface of his black battle armor. The Dao patterns intertwined, vaguely forming an extremely complex secret technique pattern on his chest, just like a beast shadow.

On his bald head, a six-cornered golden light also appeared.

The divine body and battle armor combined, causing his life aura to surge to an unimaginable level. The space trembled because of it, and strands of golden light bloomed, causing the void to constantly distort.

In his hand appeared a dark golden long staff.

"This?"

"This kind of aura!" Li Yuan's heart tightened. It was too strong.

It was even stronger than Heavenly God Xia Hao when he unleashed his full power.

One had to know that Heavenly God Xia Hao had a 'Nine-Star Heavenly God Body'. Even if his body-refining Star Art hadn't been cultivated to the extreme, his power burst alone was not inferior to most fourth-rank Heavenly God strong practitioners.

"This Luli, in terms of pure power burst, is probably comparable to many Divine Monarchs," Li Yuan muttered to himself.

It was too outrageous.

With such terrifying power, even if his moves were slightly less profound, the attack power would still be extremely terrifying.

Boom! The black-armored bald man stepped across and transformed into a golden light, pouncing straight at Li Yuan.

His speed was astonishingly fast.

"His instantaneous burst speed is much faster than mine, and he belongs to the extremely strong among Heavenly Gods," Li Yuan was secretly startled.

"Ten Thousand Star River!" Li Yuan's heart stirred, and he directly used his domain-perfect Star Art. Suddenly, phantoms of stars appeared in the void, and a large amount of starlight shone in all directions.

"Domain?"

"Too weak." The golden light transformed by the burly black-armored man was entangled by a large amount of starlight, but this starlight was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

A huge golden light flashed, directly shattering those strands of starlight and turning them into nothingness.

It only slowed his speed by a trace.

"This power is too terrifying. He should have mastered the complete Laws of Gold," Li Yuan judged instantly. "His strength is definitely more terrifying than Heavenly God Xia Hao."

"If I take it head-on, I will definitely lose."

"'Heart Realm'!" Li Yuan didn't hesitate and directly used his strongest soul attack.

When fighting Heavenly God Xia Hao before, Li Yuan was confident he could block the opponent with the Cloud Light Realm City, so he hadn't used a soul attack.

This soul attack was already very terrifying.

It could confuse the enemy's soul and injure the enemy's soul. If the gap between them was too large, it could even directly destroy the enemy's soul.

"Whoosh~~"

An invisible wave dispersed, instantly invading and enveloping the bald black-armored man, immediately making Li Yuan happy. "There is a soul? Good! There's a chance!"

Most low-level puppets had no soul and only simple consciousness, which could ignore soul attacks.

But the more powerful the puppet—for example, True God-level or Heavenly God-level puppets—the more they tended to have autonomous consciousness, a soul in their origin, and emotions.

Puppets containing souls could make fighting more flexible, better complete the orders left by the Master, and also use soul attacks and more powerful secret techniques.

It was just that the cost of refining such powerful puppets was even greater.

"Hum~" Li Yuan's soul attack invaded the puppet origin of the bald black-armored man, but it only slightly shook it, and the power contained in the soul attack had already completely dissipated.

"Haha."

"Your soul attack is not bad. If it were stronger, it should be able to influence my performance," the black-armored bald man grinned. "Void God realm, being able to achieve this level is truly incredible."

"However!"

"With just this little means, you can't win against me." The black-armored bald man's speed did not decrease.

Even if Li Yuan deliberately dodged, how big was the arena in total?

The black-armored bald man's instantaneous burst speed was much faster than Li Yuan's. In just a few seconds, he had arrived before Li Yuan.

"Go to hell!" the black-armored bald man said in a low voice.

Boom!

His voice was still transmitting in the spatial waves when his large hand had already swung the dark golden long staff. The long staff instantly soared, as if to shatter heaven and earth, and smashed down at Li Yuan's head with incomparable terrifying power.

"So fast." Li Yuan was startled and instantly transformed into nine, all nine waving their divine spears at the same time, trying their best to block the dark golden long staff.

It was the third move of the 'Heart Illusion Divine Palace', 'Ten Thousand Phenomena Void'. "Bang!"

The dark golden long staff swept away everything, the void shattered, and Li Yuan's eight phantoms instantly dissipated. As the weapons collided, he only felt a terrifying force rolling in.

Even though Li Yuan had tried his best to block it, with the domain's blessing and a God King weapon... he was still directly crushed.

Rumble~

Li Yuan was smashed flying by this staff and slammed heavily onto the arena floor, causing the ground to constantly tremble and a huge pit to appear before he finally stopped.

"Hmm?"

"Under my full-strength staff, you, a Void God, are actually unscathed, and your divine body didn't even crack?" The black-armored bald man was stunned. "Such strong material defense?"

Outside the arena.

The giant purple beast watched leisurely. When it saw this scene, it couldn't help but sigh inwardly: "As expected of a perfect Ten-Star Vein, cultivating eight perfect Star Arts, one of which should include a body-protecting Star Art."

A body-protecting Star Art could make a divine body extremely solid.

Li Yuan, who had been blasted into the distance by the staff, felt dizzy, and his divine body's blood and energy were boiling.

"Fortunately!"

"I have cultivated the 'Chaos Treasure Body' to the sixth-rank extreme, and my divine body's solidity is comparable to a True Divine Artifact," Li Yuan thought to himself. "And I'm wearing Heavenly Divine Artifact battle armor. Under double defense... even a Divine Monarch strong practitioner would find it hard to kill me in one move."

A Divine Monarch strong practitioner could generally shatter a True Divine Artifact in one move... but wanting to shatter it through Heavenly Divine Artifact battle armor? That would be difficult.

Moreover, Li Yuan's spear technique had also greatly weakened the black-armored bald man's attack power.

And this was only the sixth-rank extreme.

If he cultivated the 'Chaos Treasure Body' to the seventh-rank extreme, his divine body's solidity would be comparable to a Heavenly Divine Artifact... Even if a Divine Monarch bombarded him, it would be hard to damage him head-on; they could only suppress him first and then use special means to break it.

This was also the reason why the 'Chaos Treasure Body' could be ranked as a perfect Star Art, known as the Indestructible Divine Body when cultivated to the extreme.

"Facing a Divine Monarch, I can now take one or two moves head-on."

"Moreover, this black-armored bald man's power burst is comparable to many Divine Monarchs, but his staff technique is too mediocre, only equivalent to a newly promoted Heavenly God, and his Realm is weaker than Heavenly God Xia Hao's, let alone compared to me." Li Yuan thought to himself.

In terms of the profundity of moves, Li Yuan was comparable to many second-rank Heavenly God strong practitioners.

"Die!" The black-armored bald man roared and rushed over again like lightning.

"Kill!"

Li Yuan held the Silver Moon Divine Spear and, without the slightest fear, killed his way toward the black-armored bald man.

The two figures fought crazily.

To say it was a fight, it was actually a one-sided battle... Even though Li Yuan tried his best to use his spear technique and constantly used soul attacks to try to interfere with the opponent.

He was still constantly being ravaged!

It was just that his material defense was strong enough, and he tried his best to use his spear technique, allowing him to hold on for longer.

"Terrifying power!"

"His body, and even his puppet body, are incomparably solid, and his weapon is also a powerful Heavenly Divine Artifact."

"And he has mastered the Laws of Gold, with endless sharpness."

"The only drawback is that his moves are very stupid. This is indeed a common weakness of puppets; their moves are not strong enough." Li Yuan had already figured out the black-armored bald man's bottom line: "His head-on attack power is about at the third-rank Heavenly God level."

In terms of power, this life puppet was comparable to a fifth-rank Heavenly God, but in terms of moves, it was slightly weaker than a first-rank Heavenly God.

Its comprehensive strength was naturally at the third-rank Heavenly God level.

Whoosh!

Li Yuan was blasted flying by a staff again, and following that, he borrowed the force to fly out of the black arena.

"Hmph! If you have the ability, don't run." The black-armored bald man snorted coldly, but he didn't chase after him.

He couldn't leave the arena.

Li Yuan turned a deaf ear, his body rapidly shrinking. He put away his Star Art and returned to the side of the giant purple beast.

"How was it?" The giant purple beast laughed.

"I can barely block him for a period of time, but I can't win at all. His power is too strong," Li Yuan shook his head. "Collision after collision, my divine power is constantly consumed. Even if I continue to fight, I will eventually lose. To win, either my law comprehension must transform, or I must break through to the True God realm."

"Mm."

"But your move profundity is already considered not bad among Heavenly Gods," the giant purple beast said. "Not to mention that continuing to break through is extremely difficult and will take an extremely long time... Even if you truly possessed law comprehension close to a God King, with your power foundation, you would only barely be able to rival Luli."

"The simplest way is still to break through to the True God realm."

"Once you break through to the True God realm, your divine body will transform a thousand times," the giant purple beast said. "Your divine body will be completely not inferior to most Divine Monarchs, although your body-refining Star Art will be slightly weaker... But combined with your moves and other perfect Star Arts, defeating Luli will be very easy."

"Understood." Li Yuan nodded.

From the Void God realm to the True God realm, the divine body becomes a thousand times stronger.

From the True God realm to the Heavenly God realm, and from the Heavenly God realm to the God King realm, the divine body will transform a hundred times.

These are all iron laws under the operation of the laws of heaven and earth.

"Four years."

"As long as I cultivate in seclusion for four more years." Li Yuan's inner space had been constantly evolving and expanding.

With Li Yuan's law comprehension, as long as his inner space reached the extreme, he could break through directly.

"I cannot waste these few years." Li Yuan thought for a moment.

He bowed to the giant purple beast and then transformed into a stream of light, flying toward the palace complex he had passed before.

In those palaces, there were many ruins of secret technique methods left by God Emperor Supreme Hong Ying, which he could observe.

Inside these ruin palaces, there were indeed many secret technique methods left behind, but after observing them carefully, Li Yuan was a bit disappointed.

"They don't form a system at all."

"Compared to the inheritance left to me by Master Juexing, and the many God King inheritances I have obtained, they are not as good," Li Yuan shook his head inwardly. "Even if a very small number of method ruins are brilliant, they are difficult to comprehend. They are clearly just God Emperor Supreme Hong Ying's 'showing off'."

Li Yuan understood.

God Emperor Supreme Hong Ying left these ruins just to prove the traces of his existence, not to leave behind an inheritance.

Naturally, he wouldn't leave behind anything too low-end... To God Emperor Supreme Hong Ying, secret techniques created based on complete laws of space were already 'low-end'.

It was just that, to the current Li Yuan, the method secret technique ruins left by God Emperor Supreme Hong Ying were all too high-end.

"If I become a God King in the future and want to open up a Great Dao, it won't be too late to comprehend them then." Li Yuan returned to the side of the black arena again.

He found a place at random.

And began to cultivate with a calm heart.

Without the pressure of rescuing Alliance Leader Dongfang, Li Yuan was naturally very at ease.

"Adding the hundreds of years in the Lingmu Universe, I have only been cultivating for a few hundred years, so there is no need to rush at all." Li Yuan's heart was very serene.

He devoted most of his energy to comprehending the laws of space and the laws of earth... and a small part of his energy to cultivating Star Arts.

After all, with his divine body and law comprehension, cultivating Star Arts didn't consume too much energy; he could just follow the steps.

"Void True Explanation"

"Space Source Body"

"Realm Soldier"... Li Yuan began to cultivate these perfect Star Arts one after another, seeking to reach the sixth-rank extreme.

Time passed like water, and in the blink of an eye, it had been two years since Li Yuan stayed in the Sovereign Hall.

Chaos Divine Court headquarters, inside the Juexing Imperial Palace.

Inside a huge palace, it was empty, without any decorations, and there were no figures. Even the palace gates were completely sealed, looking very lonely.

Inside the palace.

"Rumble~" A powerful aura surged, and then quickly converged.

"Cultivating the 'Space Source Body' to the sixth-rank extreme took another half a year. Finally, I have cultivated this source body divine body to the same level as the main body." Li Yuan, dressed in green, sat cross-legged.

It was the 'Source Body' of the Chaos Divine Court headquarters that had been brought back from the Mohe Star Region by Heavenly God Demon Blade.

When Li Yuan's main body cultivated the 'Space Source Body' from the fifth rank to the sixth rank, the source body was affected, and unknowingly, its divine body had become stronger.

"'Space Source Body' sixth rank, the source body divine body is equivalent to the main body, but it cannot cultivate Star Arts," Li Yuan thought to himself. "However, even without the source seed and the blessing of the 'Void True Explanation', the efficiency of the source body in comprehending laws has become extremely high."

Why was the clone technique so enviable?

Besides saving one's life and increasing combat power, the key was that it could promote cultivation... It could allow multiple bodies to comprehend the profundities of laws at the same time.

This was only the sixth rank. Once Li Yuan cultivated the 'Space Source Body' to the seventh rank, the source body would be exactly the same as the main body, even the Star Arts would be exactly the same, which was equivalent to a second main body, and the cultivation efficiency would soar... The probability of becoming a God King would naturally soar.

It was just a pity that among Heavenly Gods, those who could truly cultivate clones were few and far between.

"Go see Senior Brother." Li Yuan's heart stirred.

Inside the Heart Dream Divine Realm, God King Dongmang's palace.

"Little Junior Brother, you want your source body to enter the 'Space Divine Ruins' to cultivate?" God King Dongmang said in a low voice.

"Correct."

Li Yuan nodded. "Senior Brother, my source body has been cultivating in the palace for a long time, and the cultivation efficiency is too low... The Space Divine Ruins can be called the number one treasure land for comprehending the laws of space."

"It's just that, if my source body appears in the Space Divine Ruins of the Imperial Palace, I'm afraid it will be seen by other Heavenly Gods in the ruins. Then, over time, the outside world will probably know that I cultivate the clone technique. I ask Senior Brother to help." Li Yuan said.

The clone technique was a true trump card.

It was best not to expose it. Even within the Juexing Imperial Palace, Li Yuan was extremely cautious.

"Fine."

"I will use the Imperial Palace's authority to disguise your source body's aura. Even other God Kings will find it hard to see through you at a glance within the Imperial Palace," God King Dongmang said. "You can just cultivate with peace of mind in the 'Space Divine Ruins' within the Imperial Palace."

"Yes, thank you, Senior Brother." Li Yuan nodded.

As a treasure land for cultivating the laws of space, besides the one on Source Fire Star, there was also one in each of the three Imperial Palaces, provided for the Heavenly Gods of the Chaos Divine Court to cultivate.

"Comprehending in the Space Divine Ruins, the efficiency is indeed much higher." Li Yuan's source body arrived at the Space Divine Ruins not long after.

And he obtained an independent space to cultivate with a calm heart.

In this way, his efficiency in comprehending the laws of space was higher.

Of course, Li Yuan had to pay some 'Heart Dream Coins' for a long time as the price for cultivating in the Space Divine Ruins.

For Heavenly Gods, one seclusion for hundreds or thousands of years was very normal.

Li Yuan's law Realm was now comparable to a Heavenly God, and a few years of quiet cultivation passed in the blink of an eye.

The main body and source body devoted themselves to cultivation, which also allowed him to make some progress in the laws of space and the laws of earth.

"After the laws of space reached the tenth stage, the progress became much slower. Wanting to completely comprehend the 'World Direction' and break through to the eleventh stage level will probably take a long time," Li Yuan thought to himself.

Li Yuan was not in a hurry. As his inner space evolved further, his efficiency in comprehending the laws of space would be even higher.

"The laws of earth, on the other hand."

"It's been a few years since I became a Void God, and I'm not far from the ninth-stage high rank," Li Yuan comprehended silently. "At this speed, I should be able to reach the ninth-stage extreme within a hundred years."

"It's just that completely comprehending the laws of earth has some bottlenecks."

With Li Yuan's own talent combined with the source seed... for most True Gods, it was difficult to break through the Realm bottleneck, but it was destined that they would be able to break through after spending a certain amount of time.

Suddenly.

Rumble~ Li Yuan only felt his divine body tremble slightly.

"Hmm? My inner space has finally expanded to the extreme." Li Yuan's eyes brightened. "It's time to break through to become a True God."

Staying in the Void God realm for five years was not too long among the top geniuses of the Chaos Divine Court throughout history.

"Boom!"

Li Yuan's heart stirred, and the inner space that had just expanded to the extreme instantly trembled.
