Chapter 582

Not long after the white-clothed youth left.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Two figures appeared in the palace. One wore sky-blue robes, his body permeating wisps of black airflow, quite evil.

The other figure looked human, shrouded in fiery red robes, but the head area was empty, with only a mass of scorching flames like a star burning.

The strength of the two was at the same level as Heavenly God Moon Glory.

"Skeleton Fire, God God Qing Mo, you two are here." Heavenly God Moon Glory saw the newcomers, his voice becoming much gentler.

The newcomers.

Were exactly the other two Heavenly Gods of the Moon Glory God Kingdom—Heavenly God Skeleton Fire, Heavenly God God God Qing Mo.

"Big Brother, what did the Divine Monarch say? Are they going to support us?" Heavenly God Skeleton Fire's head flames jumped, the voice transmitted being quite strange.

Heavenly God God God Qing Mo in green robes also listened nervously.

In terms of status, among the three Heavenly Gods of the Moon Glory God Kingdom, he was the lowest. After all, he broke through the latest and had the weakest strength.

Like Heavenly God Skeleton Fire and Heavenly God Moon Glory, their relationship was extremely close, like life-and-death brothers.

"No support." Heavenly God Moon Glory sighed lightly.

"That means we are to retreat to the Divine Court's home territory?" Heavenly God God God Qing Mo couldn't help but ask.

The so-called home territory refers to the territory completely occupied by a Divine Court. This kind of territory is usually very stable, and other Divine Courts will not easily invade.

"Not necessarily." Heavenly God Moon Glory shook his head: "The Divine Monarch's meaning is to maintain the status quo, neither ignoring the Demon Lotus God Kingdom nor ignoring the Chaos Divine Court represented by Li Yuan."

Heavenly God God God Qing Mo and Heavenly God Skeleton Fire were stunned.

Ignore?

Waiting for death?

Immediately, Heavenly God Moon Glory explained in detail what the Divine Monarch had said to the two Heavenly Gods.

"Bet that Li Yuan doesn't dare?" Heavenly God Skeleton Fire was incredulous: "That Li Yuan, even God King Chen Mo dares to show disrespect. Rumor has it that he is a God Emperor's disciple... Even if he isn't, he is definitely the most valued Heavenly God of the Chaos Divine Court in this generation, and the nearly a hundred Heavenly Gods under his command cannot be fake."

"If he really provokes a war."

"What should the Divine Court do?" Heavenly God Skeleton Fire looked at Heavenly God Moon Glory.

Heavenly God Moon Glory was speechless, his heart also full of worry... they were not God King Demon Lotus.

Like God King Demon Lotus, even if he admitted he wasn't a match, he also believed he was safe, so naturally, he dared to drag it out.

But them?

It could be said that as long as Li Yuan led his army to kill his way here, the Moon Glory God Kingdom would have to collapse.

Silence for a long time.

"Two virtuous younger brothers." Heavenly God Moon Glory said in a low voice: "In short, since we are members of the Divine Court, it is our duty, and we can only obey orders."

"Li Yuan has Heavenly Gods like clouds under his command. Not for himself, but just for the powerhouses under his command, he must expand... If Li Yuan's army kills its way here, we will surrender immediately."

"I think, if we surrender actively and he occupies the territory, he won't kill us." Heavenly God Moon Glory said.

Heavenly God Skeleton Fire and Heavenly God God God Qing Mo could only nod reluctantly.

Joining a major force has this disadvantage... while enjoying various cultivation resources and protection, it is also one's duty, and one must obey orders.

... Whoosh! Heavenly God God God Qing Mo in green robes flew out of the Moon Glory Palace and returned to his own palace.

"Surrender?"

"Hmph!" Heavenly God God God Qing Mo's eyes flashed with a trace of fear: "That Li Yuan might not necessarily let me go."

"I descended to the North Hill mortal domain back then, slaughtered countless, and seized many treasures in the Ancient Domain of Buried Immortals... If things go wrong, among those dead True Gods and Void Gods, there might be someone who can be linked to Li Yuan."

Heavenly God God God Qing Mo didn't know about True God Deity Deity Gu Ju... After all, among the True Gods he slaughtered, True God Deity Deity Gu Ju didn't count as the strongest batch.

He just instinctively felt that the risk was great.

"A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall." Heavenly God God God Qing Mo's eyes flashed with a trace of determination: "This Moon Glory God Kingdom won't be able to stay for long... better to leave, hide far away."

That day, Heavenly God God God Qing Mo began to make contact.

Having stepped into the Heavenly God Realm for thousands of years, he also had some of his own connections within the Divine Court... Not long after, he received a promise from a Divine Monarch, a transfer order, and left the Mohe Star Domain.

Divine Court, inside the Juexing God Emperor Palace, in a strange world.

In the center of the world, a purple triangular crystal was suspended, and countless strange threads seemed to permeate from different worlds, inputting mysterious power into the central purple triangular crystal.

Suddenly.

A powerful aura descended, forming a looming, illusory, massive figure.

"Master Master Dongmang." A cold female voice sounded: "What is the matter with coming here?"

"Heart Realm, you should know about Li Yuan's matter, right." God King Master Master Dongmang's voice was vigorous.

"Hmm." The female voice had become gentle: "Cultivating for a short time, even adding the time in the Emperor Source Realm, it hasn't been five hundred years, right? To have such strength, it is indeed astonishing."

Other Divine Court forces, many people thought Li Yuan had only cultivated for a hundred years.

But the higher-ups of the Chaos Divine Court could query Li Yuan's data, so they naturally knew Li Yuan's approximate cultivation time.

"He has become powerful, I am very happy." God King Heart Realm's voice was gentle: "You have a good Junior Brother."

"Hmm, Li Yuan's growth speed is indeed extraordinary." God King Master Master Dongmang nodded: "Regarding the North Star Residence matter, I need to discuss it with you. I want to add Li Yuan to the quota of my Juexing God Emperor Palace."

"Add Li Yuan to the North Star Residence quota?" God King Heart Realm was stunned for a moment: "This quota, wasn't it set long ago?"

"Yes." God King Master Master Dongmang nodded: "So, I came to discuss it with you."

"I naturally support it." God King Heart Realm said: "But this time, not one of the Heavenly Gods under my command was selected. What are you discussing with me?"

"I want to kick 'Heavenly God Baijiang' out of the list." God King Master Master Dongmang said: "But he is a personal disciple of Black Ruins. In terms of relationship, you have the best relationship with Black Ruins in the Emperor Palace, so..."

"So."

"You want to ask me to be a lobbyist? Let Black Ruins accept it?" God King Heart Realm said.

"I am not targeting Black Ruins, it's just that Baijiang's strength is weak, and he only has Divine Monarch strength by relying on a God King weapon... Even if he enters North Star Residence, I'm afraid he will attract other Divine Monarchs to target him, and he will lose his life." God King Master Master Dongmang said it as a matter of course.

"How much better can Li Yuan's strength be?" God King Heart Realm's voice carried a smile.

"Fine!"

"I will help a bit. Black Ruins will still sell me this face." God King Heart Realm said indifferently: "But you remember, I am not doing it for your sake, I am doing it for Li Yuan's sake."

"I will explain it clearly to Li Yuan." God King Master Master Dongmang smiled: "He has always kept in mind your help to him. Last time I saw him, he even mentioned to me that the secret techniques and secret treasures you gifted him were of great help to him."

The battle on East Pole Star made it known to all parties in the God Realm. It can be said that the current Li Yuan truly had some prestige in the God Realm.

Inside the Chaos Divine Court, there were even more Heavenly Gods visiting Li Yuan through the Heart Dream God Realm, among whom there was no lack of Divine Monarchs, and their attitudes were mostly very low.

Many Divine Monarchs were brothers with Li Yuan.

Li Yuan also met them one by one, but he was very calm in his heart.

He knew very well what these Heavenly Gods and even Divine Monarchs were thinking.

"In terms of true strength, there is still a huge gap between me and Divine Monarchs, even with the help of a God King weapon, I am still a notch inferior." Li Yuan was very calm in his heart: "These Divine Monarchs have low attitudes, it's just because I have a powerful Heavenly God legion under my command."

Relying on this Heavenly God team, Li Yuan could suppress most Divine Monarchs.

"Secondly."

"It is the awe of my possible background." Li Yuan was not complacent at all: "But in this world, it ultimately depends on one's own strength. Only by becoming a Divine Monarch oneself, or even possessing top-tier Divine Monarch strength, can one truly make all parties submit."

Not to mention anything else.

Entering North Star Residence in more than a hundred years, there is no way to bring the Heavenly God army under one's command.

Suddenly.

"Hmm?"

Li Yuan received a transmission from Profound Yang Heavenly God: "Domain Lord, two Heavenly Gods, claiming to be Heavenly God Xia Feng and Heavenly God Great Stone, request to see the Domain Lord. Should I agree?"

"I thought they wouldn't come." Li Yuan revealed a smile and replied directly: "Bring them to the core palace."

"Yes!"

In the void about ten million kilometers away from Cloud Light Realm City, Heavenly God Xia Feng and Heavenly God Great Stone looked at the nine Heavenly Gods before them and felt huge pressure.

They were both Third-Stage and Second-Stage Heavenly Gods... but Li Yuan?

There were nine Heavenly Gods patrolling the station under his command. How extravagant was this? Even ordinary God Kings had this kind of scene.

And.

Heavenly God Great Stone and Heavenly God Xia Feng could feel that the nine Heavenly Gods before them all had decent strength.

"Good." Profound Yang Heavenly God said in a low voice: "You can follow me to see the leader. Remember, you are not allowed to release your spiritual sense along the way... once you are regarded as an enemy by the city's protective array, don't blame me for not reminding you."

"The one responsible for guarding the array is another Heavenly God team." Profound Yang Heavenly God said indifferently: "They are not as easy to talk to as I am."

"Understood."

"Thank you for the reminder." Heavenly God Great Stone and Heavenly God Xia Feng felt increasingly nervous in their hearts.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

A group of people entered Cloud Light Realm City grandly, and the layers of arrays that originally shrouded the city opened... Every layer emitted a powerful aura, making Heavenly God Great Stone and Heavenly God Xia Feng tremble in their hearts.

Too powerful!

Especially Heavenly God Great Stone, he could fully confirm that this city was absolutely the most top-tier type of city divine artifact, and it was in a fully activated state now, explaining that many Heavenly Gods were maintaining the array's operation in the dark.

The two looked at each other, increasingly in awe.

Powerful! This was Li Yuan, nakedly showing the powerful foundation of the force he commanded to the outside world.

Finally, Profound Yang Heavenly God brought the two into the core palace. The palace was empty, with only a purple throne at the highest point.

Whoosh~

Wisps of light converged, finally forming a black-clothed figure. He sat on the throne, looking down at the people below.

"Greetings, Domain Lord." Profound Yang Heavenly God knelt on one knee.

"Greetings, Domain Lord." The other eight Heavenly Gods also knelt on one knee one after another.

This scene immediately made Heavenly God Great Stone and Heavenly God Xia Feng feel like they were sitting on pins and needles. Not paying respects? It didn't seem right.

Kneeling? They were unwilling.

Therefore, the two hesitated for a moment, then bowed slightly: "Great Stone (Xia Feng) has seen the Divine Monarch."

That's right!

Although Li Yuan's strength had not yet reached the Divine Monarch level, at least within the Chaos Divine Court, like in the Heart Dream God Realm, all Heavenly Gods who saw Li Yuan already respectfully called him 'Divine Monarch'.

"Two Heavenly Gods, no need for formalities." Li Yuan smiled: "Profound Yang, you all get up too."

"Yes, Domain Lord!" Profound Yang Heavenly God and others stood to the side, silent, watching Heavenly God Great Stone and Heavenly God Xia Feng. This made the two feel even more pressure.

"The two Heavenly Gods once gave me guidance, no need to be restrained." Li Yuan smiled: "I just don't know, what is the matter with the two Heavenly Gods coming to see me?"

The two Heavenly Gods looked at each other.

"Divine Monarch." Heavenly God Great Stone no longer hesitated: "Then I will speak directly. We received news that the Divine Monarch is preparing to build a brand new medium-sized starry sky God Kingdom 'Salary Fire God Kingdom'."

"Yes, I will build it based on the Seven Star God Kingdom, it's just in the preparation stage and hasn't been fully confirmed yet." Li Yuan smiled.

Building a medium-sized starry sky God Kingdom, besides being strong enough in martial power, one also needs matching territory.

At least hundreds of star systems of territory are needed to be called a medium-sized starry sky God Kingdom.

What about the Seven Star God Kingdom? It hasn't even fully occupied one star system yet.

"Xia Feng and I have discussed it." Heavenly God Great Stone said respectfully: "We are willing to bring the Great Stone God Kingdom to join the Salary Fire God Kingdom, and we two are also willing to be members of the Salary Fire God Kingdom. I hope the Divine Monarch will accept us."

"Join?" This actually made Li Yuan stunned for a moment.

He didn't have the idea of annexing the Great Stone God Kingdom. Originally, his targets were some scattered forces, as well as the territory of the other three major God Kingdoms... he just wanted to borrow some of the Great Stone God Kingdom's grassroots power to stabilize the order of the major star systems by then.

!. Read

After all, in terms of top-tier martial power, Li Yuan was enough, and occupying a star domain was more than enough.

But wanting to completely penetrate the rule to every star system, countless planets... was very difficult.

This requires a large number of True Gods and Void Gods, and even a vast number of Demigods to cultivate slowly.

"Great Stone brother." Li Yuan shook his head: "I have no intention of annexing you."

"Divine Monarch, you have no intention of annexing, but we are willing to join." Heavenly God Xia Feng said solemnly.

On the way to see Li Yuan, they had already thought it through.

Perhaps Li Yuan wouldn't annex them for the time being, after all, they all belonged to the Chaos Divine Court... Li Yuan wouldn't forcibly make a move.

But what about the future?

There are so many Heavenly Gods under Li Yuan's command. If they all propagate families, they all need fiefs.

And, what if Li Yuan becomes a God King in the future? Once he becomes a God King, he is destined to occupy the entire star domain as a fief.

"Rather than being forced to offer it up in the future, it's better to join early." Heavenly God Xia Feng had discussed it with Great Stone before: "Now that we join, Li Yuan Divine Monarch will easily accept us, and as the Salary Fire God Kingdom continues to expand, we will have a foothold."

"If Li Yuan Divine Monarch becomes a God King, even if we die, our family descendants will have a backer and won't be easily exterminated."

"I hope the Divine Monarch will accept us." Heavenly God Great Stone and Heavenly God Xia Feng said respectfully: "We are willing to follow the Divine Monarch."

Li Yuan pondered slightly and said in a low voice: "Good, Great Stone brother, Xia Feng brother, then I will accept. After the Salary Fire God Kingdom is built, you will still command the original Great Stone God Kingdom territory and listen to the orders of Saber Demon Heavenly God."

Li Yuan was not a hesitant person.

Since Heavenly God Great Stone and the others were willing to join actively, Li Yuan wouldn't refuse.

"Yes." Heavenly God Great Stone and Heavenly God Xia Feng also felt relieved in their hearts.

They were also familiar with Saber Demon Heavenly God.

They knew even better Saber Demon Heavenly God's strength and status, being a disciple of a God King... they could accept listening to the other party.

The news of the two Heavenly Gods of the Great Stone God Kingdom joining Li Yuan's command also spread rapidly among the other Heavenly Gods under Li Yuan.

"Little Martial Uncle."

"Accepting the Great Stone God Kingdom is a good thing for us, it can save a lot of energy." Saber Demon Heavenly God came to see Li Yuan and smiled: "The Great Stone God Kingdom has been built for a long time, and its grassroots power is complete... once we start expanding, we can quickly stabilize the rule of the new territory."

"Hmm." Li Yuan nodded: "How is your investigation of the situation in the Mohe Star Domain?"

Since confirming the plan to build the Salary Fire God Kingdom.

These days, Saber Demon Heavenly God and Heavenly God Jiang Yuan had been busy with these things...

"Basically ready, Jiang Yuan brother is very good at these." Saber Demon Heavenly God smiled: "The two Heavenly Gods, Great Stone and Xia Feng, also provided quite a bit of data."

Li Yuan nodded slightly. Heavenly God Jiang Yuan had served as a nation lord for a long time and was very familiar with these affairs.

Heavenly God Great Stone and Heavenly God Xia Feng didn't even need to be mentioned. They had been mixing in the Mohe Star Domain for a long time, and their understanding of the major forces in the Mohe Star Domain was even above the Chaos Divine Court's intelligence library.

"Saber Demon, what is your opinion?" Li Yuan asked.

"Mohe Star Domain, Demon Lotus God Kingdom is the strongest, followed by the three major God Kingdoms and the Starry Sky Divine Court, and then the two independent Divine Monarch Heavenly God sects." Saber Demon Heavenly God said: "These two Heavenly God sects don't occupy large territories, just dozens of star systems."

Li Yuan listened.

The God Realm is vast, and not all Heavenly Gods are willing to join major forces. Joining major forces certainly has many benefits... but they also lose their freedom.

Therefore, there are independent Heavenly Gods in many star domains... generally speaking, as long as there is no conflict of interest, other Divine Court forces will not overly force these independent Heavenly Gods.

Even, some independent Heavenly Gods eventually break through to the God King Realm, which is truly carefree.

"Besides these two Heavenly God sects, there are also some scattered small nations, all opened by True Gods, scattered between the four major God Kingdoms, all buffer zones." Saber Demon Heavenly God said.

This is also very common.

Like True God Deity Deity Gu Ju, he had once opened a 'medium-sized starry sky God Kingdom' occupying hundreds of planets in the Mohe Star Domain.

In reality, many seemingly independent small nations have the shadows of major Divine Courts behind them.

Many are tentacles inserted into the Mohe Star Domain by other Divine Court forces... once someone rises and grows into a Heavenly God in these small nations, they can rapidly expand into a medium-sized starry sky God Kingdom.

"My idea is from weak to strong, first annex a large number of small nations." Saber Demon Heavenly God said: "Then occupy part of the territory of the Guojue God Kingdom and Moon Glory God Kingdom... finally go to attack the Demon Lotus God Kingdom."

"After all, the Demon Lotus God Kingdom has vast territory, close to half a star domain, already close to the limit allowed by major Divine Court forces." Saber Demon Heavenly God said: "Once war breaks out, the impact will be too great."

"Little Martial Uncle, what do you think?" Saber Demon Heavenly God looked at Li Yuan.

He only offered opinions.

Ultimately, Li Yuan had to make the decision.

"No!"

"My first attack target is the Moon Glory God Kingdom, and then the Demon Lotus God Kingdom." Li Yuan smiled.

"Why?" Saber Demon felt puzzled.

"Major Divine Court forces have long had an agreement. If a God King is born in a star domain, they can permanently rule this star domain as their own territory..." Li Yuan said slowly: "There is also an agreement that if only Heavenly Gods are born, they can at most occupy half of the star systems in a star domain, right."

"Right." Saber Demon Heavenly God nodded: "Therefore, no matter how strong the major forces are, even if a local Divine Monarch is born, they will only occupy half of the star systems in a star domain."

This is the rule!

According to common sense, with God King Demon Lotus's strength, he could completely destroy other forces in the Mohe Star Domain... why not do so?

It's because other major forces don't allow it!

Don't allow one family to dominate... After all, if one force completely occupies a star domain, as long as there is enough time, generation after generation of powerhouses will be born, and eventually a God King will be born sooner or later.

These commonly observed rules are the experience gained by major Divine Court forces after blood battles time and time again.

Whoever dares to cross the line will be met with a large number of Heavenly Gods dispatched by other Divine Court forces to descend.

It is easy to form a star domain war.

"The Demon Lotus God Kingdom has too much territory. If you want to fight, fight the strongest. If you annex other forces first, it will be hard to occupy the Demon Lotus God Kingdom's territory in the end." Li Yuan shook his head: "On the contrary, other forces generally have small territories. Before I become a God King, there is no need to rush to exterminate them."

"Wait until I become a God King, they will naturally all submit."

"Little Martial Uncle is benevolent." Saber Demon Heavenly God flattered, then asked suspiciously: "Since that's the case, why attack the Moon Glory God Kingdom first?"

"I have a grudge against this God Kingdom." Li Yuan smiled indifferently.

Saber Demon Heavenly God was speechless and didn't try to persuade him anymore.

"No rush!"

"Wait until I truly possess Divine Monarch strength, then it won't be too late to act." Li Yuan said: "It won't be too long, three to five years at most."

"Good." Saber Demon Heavenly God nodded, also secretly sighing in his heart: "Little Martial Uncle's talent is truly terrifying."

Three to five years? For a Heavenly God, it's just a snap of the fingers.

The Mohe Star Domain was surging with undercurrents, and all sizes of forces were paying attention to the movements of 'East Pole Star'.

But Li Yuan had no movement at all.

Time passed like water, and in the blink of an eye, nearly a month passed. No more enemies came to ambush, and Li Yuan was ready to head to the Divine Court headquarters.

At this time, he received another quite interesting message, which was transmitted by 'God King Qian Jun'.

God King Qian Jun was a Divine Monarch who had taken the initiative to visit Li Yuan in the Heart Dream God Realm after Li Yuan's strength spread. He also belonged to the 'Juexing God Emperor Palace' lineage, and his personality was quite to Li Yuan's liking.

Therefore, the two had a good relationship, and he was the Divine Monarch closest to Li Yuan among the many he had befriended.

"Li Yuan brother, I have several Divine Monarch friends who are from the Starry Sky Divine Court, so I obtained this 'Heavenly God List' in advance." God King Qian Jun transmitted: "In a few days, this latest Heavenly God List should also spread, and then all forces will know."

"I saw that you were already on the list, so I transmitted to you in advance." God King Qian Jun transmitted.

"Many thanks." Li Yuan responded.

This Heavenly List was a powerhouse list compiled by the Starry Sky Divine Court, recording the top one thousand most top-tier Heavenly God powerhouses in the God Realm... with battle records as the basis for ranking.

This list was updated irregularly.

After each ranking update, the Starry Sky Divine Court would transmit it to major Divine Court forces.

The Starry Sky Divine Court was spread across all parts of the God Realm, and its ability to collect intelligence was first-class. This list it produced was also the powerhouse ranking list most convinced by all forces.

Immediately, Li Yuan checked this 'Heavenly God List'—

1st: God King Zhu You (Abyss)

2nd: God King Ming Fang (Chaos)

3rd: God King Axe Sea (Myriad Dao)

4th: God King Huo Wu (Abyss)

866th: Heavenly God Li Yuan (Chaos)

999th: Heavenly God Saber Demon (Chaos)

1000th: Heavenly God Rain Sacrifice (Abyss)
