Chapter 581

"Beichen Residence? Left behind by the Honghe Universe Alliance?" Li Yuan felt slightly startled in his heart, unable to help asking: "Senior Brother, can you tell me more specifically?"

Regarding this Beichen Residence, Li Yuan knew absolutely nothing.

"Mm."

"The Honghe Universe Alliance was incomparably powerful. Although it has already been destroyed, many of the treasured lands and strange worlds it left behind contain many treasures that are hard to find even within our Chaos Divine Court." Sovereign Master Dongmang sighed with emotion: "After all, all kinds of rare treasures must be nurtured in specialized environments."

"The environments required for the birth of these treasures are sometimes created by the birth of heaven and earth."

"Sometimes, they are specifically created by God Emperors." Sovereign Master Dongmang said solemnly.

Li Yuan listened; some treasures might only be produced in one place in the entire Divine Domain.

For example, the 'Master Juexing Sacred Fruit', which has a great effect on awakening star pulses, was specifically cultivated by the Master Juexing God Emperor and is unique to the Chaos Divine Court.

For example, the Emperor Source is also nearly unique to the Chaos Divine Court; at least, no second place capable of stably producing it can be found within the Heart Dream Universe.

Like the Wan Dao Divine Court and the Abyss Divine Court, they also have some unique rare treasures.

The Honghe Universe Alliance, as a top-tier major force that once shook all the universe realms, having some special rare treasures is perfectly normal.

"Beichen Residence is one such relic world." Sovereign Master Dongmang said: "Among the treasures it produces, the most famous one for Heavenly Gods is called the 'Five Realms Void Stone'."

"Five Realms Void Stone?" Li Yuan's eyes grew increasingly puzzled.

He had never heard of this treasure either.

Li Yuan sighed inwardly; his knowledge was indeed still very shallow compared to the Sovereigns.

"Its function is actually very simple: if you integrate your soul's divine power into it, it can evolve the five great worlds of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth." Sovereign Master Dongmang said: "The origins of the five great worlds intertwine, further forming complete spatial law patterns, which can be maintained for about a hundred years... During this period, whether you are comprehending the basic laws of the five elements or spatial laws, your efficiency will skyrocket."

"It is more than ten times more precious than the Spatial Star Emperor Fruit I gifted you." Sovereign Master Dongmang sighed: "Looking across the vast universe, I do not know if there is any treasure for assisting in enlightenment better than it, but at least within my Heart Dream Universe, it is very hard to find anything better."

Li Yuan instantly understood.

The Spatial Star Emperor Fruit was worth enough for many Sovereigns to trade all their wealth for just one, let alone the even more precious 'Five Realms Void Stone'?

For Heavenly Gods, comprehending the complete spatial laws is the most important thing; other treasures, even Sovereign-level weapons, have to rank behind it.

With such a precious treasure, Sovereigns from all major forces would probably want to enter.

"Are there quota restrictions?" Li Yuan asked.

"Mm." Sovereign Master Dongmang said: "Beichen Residence operates according to its own internal rules and only opens once every two million years or so; for Heavenly Gods, the opportunity is quite rare."

"You must hold the corresponding World Token to enter." Sovereign Master Dongmang smiled slightly: "Actually, Beichen Residence is divided into an Inner Domain and an Outer Domain, mainly for Sovereigns to enter and roam the Inner Domain... but each Sovereign can bring ten powerhouses below the Sovereign level to enter together."

Li Yuan instantly remembered the 'Red Moon World Token' in his hands, which also allowed a True God to bring a hundred Half-Gods.

"Our Chaos Divine Court has a total of four Beichen Residence World Tokens." Sovereign Master Dongmang said: "Therefore, we can allow forty Heavenly Gods to enter, meaning forty quotas."

"That's not enough for the Sovereigns to divide up, is it." Li Yuan couldn't help but say.

Forty quotas sounds like a lot.

But as far as Li Yuan knows, the number of Sovereigns within the Chaos Divine Court is not small; it should be over a hundred.

After all, the Chaos Divine Court produces a Nine-Star Pulse powerhouse every few hundred years on average... over three hundred thousand years, hundreds of Nine-Star Pulse powerhouses have been produced.

Nine-Star Pulse powerhouses, theoretically, as long as they don't fall midway, the majority will eventually achieve the Sovereign level.

"Mm."

"Currently, within the Divine Court, there are 122 Sovereign powerhouses listed on the Heavenly God Ranking." Sovereign Master Dongmang smiled slightly: "Therefore, the competition for the Beichen Residence quotas is very fierce."

Li Yuan sighed inwardly; it only opens once every two million years, so how could they not fight for it?

"Senior Brother, how do they fight for it?" Li Yuan asked softly.

"One way is by strength; if you possess top-tier Sovereign strength, you will absolutely be able to obtain a quota." Sovereign Master Dongmang said.

Top-tier Sovereign? Li Yuan clicked his tongue inwardly; this is too difficult.

A normal Nine-Star Pulse Heavenly God, if they can comprehend ultimate Heavenly God moves, is at the Sovereign combat power level.

However, there are even stronger ones!

For example, possessing a Sovereign-level weapon that is highly compatible with oneself, for example, having cultivated three perfect combat-type star techniques, for example, comprehending Sovereign-level moves... all will make one's strength surpass that of a normal Sovereign, and only then can one hope to be called a top-tier Sovereign.

It's just that such existences are extremely rare.

"The other way is selection by the highest echelons of the three Imperial Palaces." Sovereign Master Dongmang smiled slightly: "The decision-making power for the quotas is in our hands, but even if selected, each Sovereign must pay 30 trillion Heart Dream Coins."

"Decided by the highest echelons?" Li Yuan was not surprised.

The Beichen Residence World Tokens are all controlled by the Sovereigns, so naturally, who gets to bring whom is decided by the Sovereigns... The strong possess the power to set the rules.

As for paying 30 trillion Heart Dream Coins, it doesn't count for much.

"I, the Master Juexing Imperial Palace lineage, have 15 quotas this time, which will be decided by the many Sovereigns of the Imperial Palace through joint consultation." Sovereign Master Dongmang smiled slightly: "Little Junior Brother, originally, I hadn't thought about letting you participate in the battle, after all, your strength was too weak before."

"If your strength is insufficient, rushing in to roam will only lead to losing your life."

"However, your strength has improved so quickly, and now you are not far from Sovereign combat power... With more than a hundred years until the Beichen Residence opens, by then, if you cultivate all your star techniques to the extreme, you should have Sovereign combat power."

"Entering to hone yourself is also acceptable."

"If you are willing, I will give you a quota." Sovereign Master Dongmang said: "I think no one among the other Sovereigns of the Imperial Palace would object."

Ridiculous!

The Sovereigns of the Chaos Divine Court all know that Li Yuan is the personal disciple of the God Emperor... Li Yuan's strength is also not weak now, so who would jump out to object?

Therefore, Sovereign Master Dongmang has absolute certainty.

"Give me a quota?" Li Yuan's heart stirred slightly.

"As your Senior Brother, I must say the ugly words first: this is dangerous." Sovereign Master Dongmang continued: "Other Divine Court forces, such as the Abyss Divine Court, the Wan Dao Divine Court, the Heavenly Dragon Divine Court, the Starry Sky Divine Court... more or less, all have Beichen Residence World Tokens."

"Especially the Abyss Divine Court; judging by the number of people they have sent to participate in the past, they have at least nine Beichen Residence World Tokens in their hands." Sovereign Master Dongmang said.

"Nine? So many?" Li Yuan was surprised.

"There are many treasured lands between heaven and earth; some treasured lands are occupied by our Chaos Divine Court, while others are occupied by other forces, which is perfectly normal." Sovereign Master Dongmang said: "At least in Beichen Residence, the Abyss Divine Court has always had the greatest advantage."

Li Yuan couldn't help but nod; that's also correct.

Even if the Chaos Divine Court is the number one major force in the universe realm, it doesn't mean it has an absolute advantage everywhere.

"This time."

"That Sovereign Chenmo suffered a loss and lost face." Sovereign Master Dongmang said: "He will definitely spread the news that you are suspected of being a 'God Emperor's disciple' wantonly... Regardless of whether other forces believe it or not, the strength you have displayed is enough to make all major forces vigilant."

"Beichen Residence is hard for outsiders to enter."

"By then, if there is an opportunity."

"Many powerhouse forces will not be soft-hearted." Sovereign Master Dongmang said frankly: "This is also a honing for you. If you die in the life-and-death roaming... even Master cannot seek revenge for you."

Li Yuan nodded slightly; super powerhouses are mostly proud as well.

Just like under Li Yuan's command, if a Seven Star Civilization powerhouse roams outside and falls in battle with other powerhouses... then if Li Yuan were to seek them out, it would be he who loses face.

This is the unspoken rule in the Divine Domain: battle among peers, each relying on their own means.

"Therefore!"

"The decision is yours." Sovereign Master Dongmang said: "There is no rush, you can also think about it carefully; as long as you tell me your decision before the Beichen Residence opens, it will be fine."

"Senior Brother, no need to wait, I will go." Li Yuan smiled broadly.

Tell Senior Brother my decision before the Beichen Residence opens?

Not to mention that his strength was not yet sufficient, even if it were truly sufficient... wanting to go would not be easy; so many Sovereigns were fighting for the quotas, so how could they allow him to wait?

Everything was just a special privilege given to him by Senior Brother Master Dongmang.

But what kind of existence was Li Yuan now? Clear-minded and insightful, he knew very well what he should do and what he should not do.

Once decided, then do it.

"Not considering it more?" Sovereign Master Dongmang felt slightly surprised.

"No." Li Yuan smiled: "Senior Brother, although if I cultivate step-by-step, becoming a Sovereign in the future is not difficult, this Five Realms Void Stone is not a necessity for me."

Sovereign Master Dongmang nodded; a Nine-Star Pulse, with enough time, will definitely become a Sovereign.

This is the heaven-defying aspect of a Nine-Star Pulse powerhouse.

"However!"

"Closing the door to build a cart, one cannot open up an Eternal Path, nor can one become a God Emperor." Li Yuan's eyes held radiance: "A Sovereign, with a lifespan of ten million years, is something that cannot be broken."

"Every God Emperor is forged from endless blood and fire."

"Not to mention that Beichen Residence itself contains a large number of treasures,"

"Entering Beichen Residence and engaging with top-tier Heavenly Gods from all major forces, this kind of honing opportunity is rare in itself." Li Yuan smiled slightly: "Even if I truly encounter an assassination, I believe it will only hone me to be even more powerful."

"Making me become a Sovereign faster, so I have more time to seek the path to becoming a God Emperor."

"Furthermore, I have cultivated the 'Spatial Source Body'; even if I die in battle, I can revive again... There is no danger of falling, at most I will lose some treasures. If I don't even have this bit of courage, how can I break the shackles and step into the God Emperor Realm?" Li Yuan smiled: "Senior Brother, am I right?"

Confidence!

This made Sovereign Master Dongmang feel slightly dazed for a moment; the extreme confidence Li Yuan radiated made him feel quite emotional in his heart.

"Hahaha!"

"Good." Sovereign Master Dongmang revealed a smile: "Little Junior Brother, since you have decided, then let go and do it. I look forward to the day you traverse all directions and achieve the Sovereign level to stand alongside me."

"Thank you, Senior Brother." Li Yuan bowed respectfully, and his avatar dissipated and left.

Inside the palace, only Sovereign Master Dongmang remained.

"Boundless sharpness."

"Forged in endless blood and fire, until achieving the God Emperor level?" Sovereign Master Dongmang murmured to himself: "Little Junior Brother is truly boundless in sharpness... compared to him, I seem to have lived too long and have become a bit stale."

"Perhaps."

"I can still fight for it once more?" A thought flashed through Sovereign Master Dongmang's heart.

……

Li Yuan left a wisp of consciousness in the Heart Dream Universe.

"Deducted 30 trillion Heart Dream Coins from me?" Li Yuan received a notification from the Heart Dream Universe.

This is the price every Sovereign must pay to obtain a Beichen Residence quota.

"Senior Brother is quite fast." Li Yuan smiled slightly, not caring at all in his heart.

Compared to these treasures, the Beichen Residence quota was more important.

Moreover, even after deducting 30 trillion Heart Dream Coins, this trip to see Senior Brother Master Dongmang had also yielded an extra 20 trillion Heart Dream Coins.

"With the remaining 20 trillion Heart Dream Coins, once I reach the Divine Court headquarters and send the Red Moon World Token to the Myriad Things Palace to sell... it will be enough to cultivate all my cultivation star techniques to the Seventh Rank extreme." Li Yuan was in a very good mood.

Although he had exposed his strength this time and attracted some covetousness, the final harvest was even greater.

In the process of a powerhouse's cultivation, where is there ever smooth sailing? The bigger the waves, the more they are treated by Li Yuan as honing for himself.

Suddenly. "Beichen Residence intelligence?" Li Yuan's avatar in the Heart Dream Universe suddenly received a message from Sovereign Master Dongmang.

Li Yuan hurriedly checked it.

It was detailed intelligence regarding Beichen Residence; this was extremely secret information that ordinary Heavenly Gods could not come into contact with.

Li Yuan immediately began to read it.

"So, the opening time of Beichen Residence is not completely fixed; even Sovereigns can only vaguely deduce it through the World Token, about 120 years later, perhaps a few years early, or perhaps a few years late?" Li Yuan thought to himself: "So, 118 years later, all Sovereigns who have obtained quotas must head to the Divine Court headquarters to await orders?"

Only in this way could they enter Beichen Residence at the first opportunity and seize the initiative.

"So."

"Beichen Residence is so vast, and actually has so many rare treasures..." Li Yuan continued reading, sighing in admiration.

The interior of the universe realm is a place where life normally propagates, so most so-called treasured lands have very little effect on the Heavenly God level... But in the dark zones of the universe, the environment is harsh, and some natural dangerous lands will nurture incredible supreme treasures.

However!

Based on the intelligence Li Yuan knows, in the starry sky near the universe realm, the treasured lands and dangerous lands suitable for Heavenly Gods to roam and adventure in... are far from being comparable to Beichen Residence.

!. Read

"As long as I can come out alive."

"It won't be a loss if I can just scavenge one or two treasures." Li Yuan thought to himself: "If I can seize the Five Realms Void Stone, it will be a huge profit."

Li Yuan dared to go, and it was not blind impulse.

"I have cultivated until now for only a few hundred years, and I have only become a God for ten years... In the next hundred years or so, I will concentrate on cultivation, and I will definitely be able to raise my law comprehension by a large margin." Li Yuan was full of confidence.

……

Time passed, even though the two Sovereigns had already negotiated.

By common logic, a major war would not break out again in the short term, but Li Yuan still stayed on Dongji Star, quietly cultivating.

Less than a day after the great battle, startling news had already spread.

"In the Mohe Star Domain, a Sovereign-level great battle broke out, and finally, the avatars of two Sovereigns descended."

"Sovereign Guyuan and Sovereign Qing Qing Tian joined forces to ambush Li Yuan..."

"The peerless genius of the Chaos Divine Court, 'Li Yuan', has only cultivated for a hundred-plus years, yet has already achieved the Heavenly God level, and possesses near-Sovereign combat power; it is simply incredible."

"Under his command, there are nearly a hundred Heavenly Gods; he is suspected to be a disciple of a God Emperor, sent by the God Emperor to his command."

"A hundred-plus years, and his strength is near-Sovereign? What kind of cultivation speed is this? Could he be the legendary Nine-Star Pulse?" These messages were either spread secretly by the Abyss Divine Court or actively spread by the Chaos Divine Court to build Li Yuan's reputation.

In short!

In a very short time, the news that 'Li Yuan possesses near-Sovereign strength and is suspected to be a God Emperor's disciple' had spread like a hurricane from the Chaos Divine Court and the Abyss Divine Court to all major forces in the Divine Domain.

Shock!

Li Yuan had the name of 'peerless genius' in the past, but in fact, most Sovereigns and Sovereigns of all forces did not pay much attention... but after this battle, it was completely different.

A peerless genius who had only cultivated for a hundred-plus years already had such startling strength.

What kind of talent must this be?

……

Mohe Star Domain, Great Stone Divine Kingdom.

In the deepest part of Great Stone Star, inside that towering palace, the palace was empty, with only a large number of puppets patrolling outside.

At the end of the palace.

A figure wearing azure robes stood there, his aura radiating, as if he were the absolute center of this heaven and earth.

Suddenly.

Swish~ A black-robed figure with a vigorous aura appeared in the palace, his gaze falling on the azure-robed figure, saying slowly: "Xia Feng."

"Great Stone, you've returned?" The azure-robed figure nodded slightly.

It was indeed the two Heavenly Gods of the Great Stone Divine Kingdom—Heavenly God Xia Feng and Heavenly God Great Stone.

"The news, you should already know." Heavenly God Xia Feng said.

"Mm." Heavenly God Great Stone's aura was steady, sighing with emotion: "I knew Li Yuan was no ordinary person back then, but I didn't expect that in less than a hundred years, he would have grown directly from the Half-God Realm to an existence near a Sovereign, actually being able to fight Sovereign Guyuan to a standstill; it is truly inconceivable."

"Indeed incredible." Heavenly God Xia Feng nodded.

Back then, when Li Yuan first arrived in the Divine Domain and passed by Great Stone Star, they had even gifted Li Yuan presents, wanting to forge a good relationship.

Never did they imagine that so quickly, the status of both sides would be reversed.

Near-Sovereign combat power? This already far exceeded the two of them... like Heavenly God Great Stone, he only had the strength of the Third Tier of the Heavenly God Realm.

"I have already received the news." Heavenly God Great Stone said in a low voice: "Li Yuan has already formally applied to the Divine Court, requesting to establish the 'Firewood Divine Kingdom' on the basis of the Seven Star Divine Kingdom."

"Independently establish a kingdom?" Heavenly God Xia Feng sighed inwardly; they once had a plan to invite the other party to join the Great Stone Divine Kingdom after Li Yuan became a Heavenly God.

Unfortunately, plans could not keep up with changes.

"Have you decided?" Heavenly God Xia Feng couldn't help but say: "Are you truly willing?"

"Mm." Heavenly God Great Stone said indifferently: "Willing or not, only by giving up can one gain... We did forge some good karma back then, so he shouldn't make things too difficult for us."

"Let's go."

"Good." The two Heavenly Gods took a step, and their figures simultaneously disappeared from the palace.

……

The Mohe Star Domain had always been a place where four major divine kingdoms stood side-by-side, along with some scattered forces.

But in reality, all powerhouses knew that the most powerful among the four divine kingdoms had always been the 'Magic Lotus Divine Kingdom'.

Just that one divine kingdom occupied about half of the territory of the Mohe Star Domain, which was more vast than the other three divine kingdoms combined...

"Li Yuan?"

"Nearly a hundred Heavenly Gods under his command? Sovereign Guyuan and Sovereign Qing Qing Tian joined forces and were actually not his match?" Inside a vast and vast world, a thin black-clothed man walked out of the palace, overlooking the world below.

Under his feet, a huge black lotus was blooming, and countless palaces were suspended above the black lotus.

This was the Black Lotus Domain, and also the core of the Magic Lotus Divine Kingdom.

When the black-clothed man walked into the void, an invisible pressure shrouded this vast world.

"Magic Lotus!"

"Magic Lotus!"

"Magic Lotus!" Countless lives in the vast world felt that aura that was like the vast sky, and they knelt down one after another, their voices resounding through heaven and earth.

"Sovereign Chenmo!"

"For the sake of his own disciple, he actually dragged me into this." Sovereign Magic Lotus felt it was tricky.

During the last great battle, he received the order, but was told the battle had ended while he was on his way to participate.

So he returned.

"Suspected God Emperor disciple? This Li Yuan's strength has improved so rapidly, he will probably achieve the Sovereign level before long, and with such a powerful force under his command, he will probably expand his territory rapidly." Sovereign Magic Lotus thought to himself.

How much strength you have determines how much territory you occupy.

He was able to occupy half the territory of the Mohe Star Domain because he was the only 'Sovereign' in the Mohe Star Domain.

But from today on, the situation has changed.

Not to mention the future, the force commanded by Li Yuan was already more formidable than the Magic Lotus Divine Kingdom he commanded.

"What should I do?"

"Retreat actively? Cede a large area of territory? The Divine Court headquarters probably won't agree." Sovereign Magic Lotus shook his head inwardly.

The Magic Lotus Divine Kingdom was not his divine kingdom alone; first of all, it was the territory of the Abyss Divine Court, so he had to listen to the orders of the headquarters.

……

If Sovereign Magic Lotus felt troubled.

Then, the other two medium-sized starry sky divine kingdoms in the Mohe Star Domain, the 'Moon Glory Divine Kingdom' belonging to the Wan Dao Divine Court and the 'Guojue Divine Kingdom' belonging to the Jiuzhen Divine Court, were anxious and uneasy.

In the past, the Magic Lotus Divine Kingdom was the sole dominant force, and the situation in the Mohe Star Domain was very stable... but from today on, it was two powers standing side-by-side, and the territory of the Chaos Divine Court was so small, would they be willing?

A war in the Mohe Star Domain would break out sooner or later.

Guojue Divine Kingdom, Guojue Star, inside the Heavenly God Palace in the deepest part.

"Sovereign." Heavenly God Guojue, wearing black robes, said respectfully.

In front of him was a purple-clothed phantom.

"The Divine Court headquarters already knows about the Mohe Star Domain." The purple-clothed phantom said indifferently: "Now that the Chaos Divine Court and the Abyss Divine Court are about to contend, the situation is extremely unstable, and the divine kingdom you command is in danger of being affected."

"Please, Sovereign, be clear; is the Divine Court headquarters going to provide support?" Heavenly God Guojue asked, a trace of expectation in his heart.

"No!"

"The meaning of the Divine Court headquarters is to give up." The purple-clothed phantom said indifferently: "Shrink the territory you command to 100 star systems, just enough to maintain the existence of our Jiuzhen Divine Court in the Mohe Star Domain... all other star systems, give them all to Li Yuan."

"Give them up actively?" Heavenly God Guojue felt unwilling in his heart.

This divine kingdom was his life's work.

And he also heard that the Divine Court headquarters seemed to be more optimistic that the Chaos Divine Court, where Li Yuan was located, would achieve victory.

"With Li Yuan's growth speed."

"He is destined to grow into a top-tier Sovereign; if it reaches that point, you won't even have the qualifications to give them up." The purple-clothed phantom said indifferently: "Only by giving up actively now, bowing your head, and then having the Divine Court as a backer, can you keep the 100 star systems of territory."

"Consider it carefully yourself."

"In short, the Divine Court headquarters cannot possibly send a large army to participate in the battle for the sake of your divine kingdom." The phantom said.

"Yes." Heavenly God Guojue surrendered.

He only had the strength of the Third Tier of the Heavenly God Realm; if the Jiuzhen Divine Court did not provide support, how could he dare to fight?

…… Almost at the same time.

Inside the Moon Glory Divine Kingdom.

"Not retreat?" Heavenly God Moon Glory looked at the white-clothed youth phantom that had descended, unable to help saying: "Sovereign, Li Yuan has many Heavenly Gods under his command; once he chooses to expand, does the Divine Court headquarters have the confidence to block him?"

"What are you panicking about."

"My Wan Dao Divine Court is not afraid of that Chaos Divine Court." The white-clothed youth said coldly: "Now that Li Yuan has just blocked the ambush of the Abyss Divine Court, his enemy is the Magic Lotus Divine Kingdom; as long as he is not stupid, he will not invade the Moon Glory Divine Kingdom."

"If he dares to come, it will be declaring war on both the Abyss Divine Court and the Wan Dao Divine Court."

"I believe he will make the correct choice."
