Chapter 640

"Meet? Will it expose my true self?" Li Yuan hesitated slightly.

"If you meet in reality, it is indeed possible. After all, you have not yet mastered the complete Space Laws... Once you meet, you will definitely be discovered by him." God King Master Master Dongmang laughed.

Li Yuan listened. Mastering the complete Space Laws meant one's Dao rhyme was completely different... The Celestial Gods on North Star could not detect this difference, but a God King certainly could.

Therefore, in Li Yuan's plan, before he comprehended the complete Space Laws, he would neither leave North Star nor enter the inner region of North Star.

"However, I have already considered this."

"We can meet in the Heart Dream Divine World." God King Master Master Dongmang laughed: "It also happens to be a good excuse. Your original body is currently trapped on North Star and cannot sense the star domain's origin, so your consciousness cannot descend freely to various places in the universe."

"Can he enter the Heart Dream Divine World?" Li Yuan was startled.

"I am the leader of the Emperor Palace and have the authorization to briefly borrow the power of the Heart Dream Divine World." God King Master Master Dongmang said: "Once you pioneer your Dao and succeed me as the new leader of the Juexing Emperor Palace... you will also have this authorization."

After a pause, God King Master Master Dongmang added: "Serving as the leader of the Emperor Palace still has quite a few benefits."

Li Yuan nodded slightly.

Although he was a personal disciple of a God Emperor, if he really wanted to serve as the leader of the Juexing Emperor Palace, he would need to be stronger.

Otherwise, how could he convince the numerous God Kings who had pioneered their Daos?

"Fine, Senior Brother." Li Yuan laughed: "Then let me go and see this contemporary first God King of the Divine Domain."

Not long after.

Inside the Heart Dream Divine World, within a newly opened palace, several figures appeared out of thin air one after another.

"Hmm?" Li Yuan saw the other two figures in the palace besides Senior Brother Master Master Dongmang at a glance.

One was a young man wearing dark red battle armor. He had a faint smile on his face. Even though an avatar in the Heart Dream Divine World was only condensed from a wisp of a powerhouse's consciousness, one could still feel the endless destructive aura he emitted.

Powerful! Dangerous!

In Li Yuan's perception, the opponent was like a destructive demon god who could pose a fatal threat to him.

Clearly, the opponent's Dao and will were very terrifying, at least far exceeding Li Yuan's.

As for the other figure in green robes? The danger he posed to Li Yuan was much smaller; even standing beside the man in dark red battle armor, he would subconsciously make people ignore him.

"Blood Flame?" Li Yuan stared at the man in dark red battle armor.

"Xinyuan?" Sovereign Blood Flame observed Li Yuan with interest, only to find that Li Yuan was not afraid to look him in the eye at all.

In the collision of their gazes.

Li Yuan even had a trace of provocation in his eyes.

"Interesting. You are worthy of being called Sovereign Xinyuan." Sovereign Blood Flame laughed, already ninety percent certain that Li Yuan was a God King.

Because, meeting in the Heart Dream Divine World, he couldn't perceive Li Yuan's divine body, but he could feel Li Yuan's soul will... although it was not yet as strong as his own, it was already on the same level.

"Xinyuan, this is Sovereign Yu Chen." God King Master Master Dongmang introduced the figure in green robes from the side.

"Hmm." Li Yuan nodded.

Back then, in the territory of the Ten Thousand Daos Divine Court, he had encountered a large-scale siege by Celestial Gods, and the person behind the scenes was this very individual.

Times had changed.

Several hundred years had passed, and he was now qualified to have a direct dialogue with the other party.

"Blood Flame, listening to my Senior Brother, you want to find me to apologize and reconcile?" Li Yuan's voice was low.

Sovereign Blood Flame had not yet spoken.

"Xinyuan." Sovereign Yu Chen on the side said angrily: "We didn't come to apologize; we came to resolve our grievances."

"Resolve grievances? Isn't that the same as apologizing? In my eyes, it's the same thing." Li Yuan shook his head: "Speak, what do you want?"

"You..." Sovereign Yu Chen was somewhat angry.

"Yu Chen." Sovereign Blood Flame's voice was leisurely, immediately forcing Sovereign Yu Chen to suppress the anger in his heart, take a step back, and say no more.

But he still stared at Li Yuan.

"Xinyuan, the Abyss Divine Court and the Purple Crow Universe will try to suppress and kill you in one fell swoop when you leave North Star. In this battle, my Ten Thousand Daos Divine Court is willing to stand by and watch." Sovereign Blood Flame smiled: "Similarly, I hope you can make a promise that our grievances will be wiped clean... You don't need to make any oaths; just a verbal promise from you is enough. I believe you."

"Not enough!" Li Yuan shook his head flatly.

"Not enough?" Sovereign Blood Flame was thoughtful and said directly: "According to your meaning, what else is needed?"

"Resolving grievances, how can it be done just by talking?" Li Yuan looked at Sovereign Blood Flame: "Ten thousand units of Eternal Crystals as compensation, and I will consider the grievances resolved and no longer pursue you."

These words made God King Master Master Dongmang on the side feel slightly surprised.

Ten thousand units of Eternal Crystals was not a small amount.

"Xinyuan, don't go too far." Sovereign Yu Chen's expression changed. In his view, their attitude was already very respectful toward Li Yuan.

Ten thousand units of Eternal Crystals? Even a first-step God King would find it difficult to produce most of that.

"Too far?"

"When you joined forces with the Abyss Divine Court and the Purple Crow Universe to try and kill me, was that not too far?" Li Yuan sneered.

"But you have already killed all the Sovereigns, so that counts as revenge." Sovereign Yu Chen stared at Li Yuan: "Do you think that my Ten Thousand Daos Divine Court wanting to resolve grievances is because we are truly afraid of you?"

Sovereign Yu Chen was truly angry.

"Yu Chen."

"Do you think I would be afraid of your Ten Thousand Daos Divine Court?" Li Yuan sneered: "I also wouldn't mind if you joined forces with the Abyss Divine Court and the Purple Crow Universe to kill me... it just depends on whether you can kill me."

"But if you can't kill me, hmph hmph... when I take revenge, I never go soft."

Arrogant!

Or rather, confident... God King Master Master Dongmang sighed inwardly. If it were him, he might not have Li Yuan's confidence.

"You! You..." Sovereign Yu Chen was already bewildered. He hadn't expected a newly promoted God King like Li Yuan to be so arrogant.

"Master Master Dongmang, are you just going to watch?" Sovereign Yu Chen turned to look at God King Master Master Dongmang, somewhat angrily: "My Ten Thousand Daos Divine Court came to talk sincerely. Does Xinyuan's words represent the attitude of your Chaos Divine Court?"

In his view, with Li Yuan having such a posture, God King Master Master Dongmang might not necessarily be happy about it.

"Junior Brother Xinyuan is the future leader of my Juexing Emperor Palace. His words naturally represent the attitude of my Chaos Divine Court." God King Master Master Dongmang smiled: "Since he said he wants 'ten thousand units of Eternal Crystals,' then it is ten thousand units of Eternal Crystals."

Junior Brother?

Emperor Palace leader?

Sovereign Yu Chen and Sovereign Blood Flame instantly understood that the rumors from earlier were true... Sovereign Xinyuan was indeed a personal disciple of a God Emperor.

Li Yuan was not surprised that Senior Brother Master Master Dongmang revealed his identity.

When he was a Celestial God, he tried to hide identities like Ten-Star-Pulse and personal disciple of a God Emperor as much as possible, but after becoming a God King, he often didn't care anymore.

"Yu Chen."

"It is you, actually." Li Yuan suddenly said coldly: "I am communicating with Blood Flame, yet you keep interrupting. Could it be... that you can make decisions for the Ten Thousand Daos Divine Court?"

Sovereign Yu Chen choked.

As an ordinary God King, how could he have such confidence?

"Brother Xinyuan."

"Yu Chen's temper is a bit urgent, why be so aggressive?" Sovereign Blood Flame spoke again, still smiling, calm and unhurried: "My Ten Thousand Daos Divine Court cannot agree to the compensation of ten thousand units of Eternal Crystals."

"However!"

"You became a God King within a thousand years, which is a great story in the Divine Domain. I admire you immensely, so I will give you a 'High-Grade God King Weapon' as a congratulatory gift to witness the friendship between our two sides." Sovereign Blood Flame laughed: "Brother Xinyuan, what do you think?"

Sovereign Yu Chen was startled.

In his impression, Sovereign Blood Flame was an extremely arrogant person; how could he bow his head?

"Hmm?" A trace of surprise flashed in God King Master Master Dongmang's eyes.

Li Yuan glanced at Sovereign Blood Flame. He had originally made an exorbitant demand, not expecting the other party to agree so readily.

Did I ask for too little? Li Yuan thought to himself.

"There is no need for a High-Grade God King Weapon; ten thousand units of Eternal Crystals will suffice." Li Yuan shook his head.

"Fine." Sovereign Blood Flame agreed readily: "In a moment, I will have the ten thousand units of Eternal Crystals sent to the territory of the Chaos Divine Court, so please receive them."

"No problem." God King Master Master Dongmang finally spoke: "Then thank you for Brother Blood Flame's congratulatory gift."

Immediately.

The avatars of Sovereign Blood Flame and Sovereign Yu Chen dissipated.

……

Ten Thousand Daos Divine Court headquarters.

"Blood Flame, that Xinyuan is too arrogant. Are you just going to let him be so arrogant?" Sovereign Yu Chen couldn't help but say.

"Arrogant?"

"A peerless monster who became a God King within a thousand years, such confidence is only natural." Sovereign Blood Flame smiled.

"But he didn't even put us in his eyes." Sovereign Yu Chen gritted his teeth.

"If I had become a God King within a thousand years, I wouldn't have put other God Kings in my eyes either; I would only feel that given time, I would surely surpass these opponents." Sovereign Blood Flame said frankly.

Sovereign Yu Chen was stunned. He only felt that Sovereign Blood Flame seemed a bit wrong this year.

"Yu Chen."

"Think about it, why does Xinyuan dare to be so arrogant?" Sovereign Blood Flame said: "There is a ten percent chance he is posturing... but facing the danger of being besieged and falling, he has no need to."

"The greater probability is that he doesn't care about us."

"It is the Chaos Divine Court's determination that even if we join the siege, Sovereign Xinyuan can still survive." Sovereign Blood Flame shook his head.

Sovereign Yu Chen was shocked.

"It doesn't matter."

"In any case, this time, I will not intervene." Sovereign Blood Flame laughed: "Ten thousand units of Eternal Crystals? It doesn't mean much to me."

Sovereign Blood Flame left some things unsaid.

As the first God King of the Divine Domain, although his perception of fate and causality was not as good as the God Emperors', it was still extremely remarkable... In the dark, he had a feeling that he shouldn't provoke Li Yuan.

This meeting, with the revelation of Li Yuan's identity as a "personal disciple of a God Emperor," further confirmed some thoughts in his heart.

Therefore, even if he had to pay a price, he wanted to settle the matter.

"Anyway, these ten thousand units of Eternal Crystals are coming from the Divine Court's treasury." Sovereign Blood Flame thought to himself.

All he lost was some face.

But how many units of Eternal Crystals is face worth?

……

Heart Dream Divine World, only Li Yuan and God King Master Master Dongmang remained in the palace.

"Junior Brother, it's strange."

"This Sovereign Blood Flame has always been very proud." God King Master Master Dongmang laughed: "I was very surprised that he was willing to come and resolve the grievances this time... and you asked for ten thousand units of Eternal Crystals, and he actually agreed directly."

"Although ten thousand units of Eternal Crystals don't mean much to him, it still counts as losing face." God King Master Master Dongmang laughed.

"Ten thousand units of Eternal Crystals, did I ask for too little?" Li Yuan couldn't help but say.

In Li Yuan's cognition.

Ten thousand units of Eternal Crystals was not a small amount.

"Ten thousand units of Eternal Crystals is a treasure worth risking one's life for, for most eighth-stage powerhouses, and it is also a wealth worth valuing for first-step and second-step God Kings among those who have pioneered their Daos." God King Master Master Dongmang laughed: "But for Sovereign Blood Flame, it doesn't mean much... You must understand, he is a God King Perfection powerhouse."

"The only God King Perfection in the contemporary Divine Domain."

"That a God King Perfection existence would bow his head to a newly promoted God King like you, haha, if this spreads, it will likely surprise all parties in the Divine Domain." God King Master Master Dongmang laughed.

"God King Perfection?" Li Yuan was slightly curious.

He was not very clear about the strength classification of God Kings who had pioneered their Daos.

"Space God Kings are classified into four small levels: threshold, initial, mid-stage, and high-stage." God King Master Master Dongmang said: "And God Kings who have pioneered their Daos are essentially classified into first-step, second-step, and third-step God Kings."

"However, like ordinary Eternal Daos and high-tier Eternal Daos, they all take the third step, but can their strength be the same?"

"Similarly, can the power erupted by an eight-star-pulse God King and a ten-star-pulse God King be the same?" God King Master Master Dongmang sighed with emotion.

Li Yuan shook his head.

Although after pioneering a Dao, the power of the Dao becomes increasingly important, the gap in divine bodies still cannot be ignored.

"Most God Kings have a Nine-Star God King Body."

"So under normal circumstances, a 'third-step God King' who has pioneered a high-tier Eternal Dao is qualified to be called a God King Peak." God King Master Master Dongmang laughed: "For example, myself, God King Black Stone, and God King Hun Hai are all God King Peaks."

Li Yuan nodded. In this way, if it were a "third-step God King" who had pioneered an ordinary Eternal Dao, they wouldn't be qualified to be called a God King Peak.

"And like Sovereign Blood Flame."

"A Ten-Star God King Body, plus having pioneered a high-tier Eternal Dao to the third step... that is the limit a God King can reach under normal circumstances." God King Master Master Dongmang said: "Therefore, it is called God King Perfection."

"Like Sovereign Senior Senior Huanxin, who only had an eight-star God King Body back then, but he pioneered a 'top-tier Eternal Dao,' and the power of his Dao was terrifying, so he also had God King Perfection combat power, which should be about the same as Sovereign Blood Flame." God King Master Master Dongmang said: "If Sovereign Senior Senior Huanxin had a nine-star pulse, he should have been able to suppress Sovereign Blood Flame."

Li Yuan suddenly understood.

At this point, he finally had a clearer concept of the strength of God Kings who had pioneered their Daos.

The divine body is important, but the power of the pioneered Dao is even more important.

"And the most top-tier and terrifying batch among God Kings are those who, with a ten-star-pulse body, have pioneered a top-tier Eternal Dao and taken the third step." God King Master Master Dongmang sighed with emotion: "Such peerless existences are truly capable of rivaling God Emperors."

"Of course, they only rival the weakest God Emperors... God Emperors are also divided into high and low."

"In the twenty-plus billion years of history of the Divine Domain."

"Such invincible God Kings are born very, very rarely." God King Master Master Dongmang sighed with emotion: "In the history of our Chaos Divine Court, there have only been three... It is just a pity that they all stopped at the God King realm."

"On the contrary, our Master, back then, only had God King Peak strength, and eventually took the fourth step." God King Master Master Dongmang laughed.

"Master Juexing God Emperor, only had God King Peak strength back then?" Li Yuan was puzzled.

He had originally thought that for the Juexing God Emperor to be able to break through, he should have been at least God King Perfection back then.

Now it seemed that was not the case.

"Junior Brother."

"This is also where I want to remind you." God King Master Master Dongmang looked at Li Yuan: "Once you enter the God King Hall and your authorization is upgraded, you will know the relevant information... I thought I would tell you first."

"Do you remember?"

"When you were initially trying to cultivate 'Phantom Heart Divine Canon,' did I remind you? Telling you to choose carefully." God King Master Master Dongmang said.

"I remember."

Li Yuan nodded, recalling: "Senior Brother said back then that a Dao that is too strong might not be a good thing, so he told me to be cautious."

"Hmm."

"I must admit, back then I imagined your talent to be very high, but I still underestimated you. Your monstrous talent and high comprehension are indeed beyond imagination; there has likely never been such a case since the birth of the Divine Domain." God King Master Master Dongmang said: "But I still must remind you."

Li Yuan listened.

"Pioneering a Dao."

"Essentially, the more powerful the Eternal Dao, the better... A powerful Dao is not only stronger in strength, but most importantly, it is 'perfect' enough." God King Master Master Dongmang said solemnly: "Like ordinary Eternal Daos, they are easy to pioneer, but they have many flaws and are very likely to be unable to continue after the third or second step."

"Even high-tier Eternal Daos are prone to errors... The path of pioneering a Dao is very difficult at every step."

"One wrong step, and there is no hope for becoming a God Emperor for the rest of one's life."

Li Yuan nodded. He had already known this point.

"And like top-tier Eternal Daos, once pioneered, theoretically, as long as the accumulation is deep enough, one will definitely be able to take the fourth step and achieve the God Emperor realm." God King Master Master Dongmang sighed with emotion.

"Definitely?" Li Yuan was startled.

Is it that absolute?

"It sounds very beautiful, doesn't it?"

"However, the more powerful and perfect the Dao, the more massive the deduction required... and the more difficult it is to push forward each step." God King Master Master Dongmang sighed: "It will also consume more time."

"Like myself, God King Black Stone, and other God King Peak powerhouses, if we had held back when we were still 'Space God Kings' and continued to focus on accumulation, comprehension, and cultivation for a million years or even longer... perhaps we would have had hope of pioneering a 'top-tier Eternal Dao'." God King Master Master Dongmang said.

"However, I fear that for the rest of our lives, we would at most be able to take the second step."

"Let alone the third step or the final fourth step." God King Master Master Dongmang sighed: "There is not enough time."

"God Kings only have a lifespan of ten million years."

"A Dao that is too powerful... is not enough to support one in reaching the God Emperor realm." God King Master Master Dongmang shook his head: "In the history of the Divine Domain, there have been quite a few who pioneered top-tier Eternal Daos, but most could not reach the third step, and only two, the Chaos God Emperor and the Abyss God Emperor, eventually achieved the God Emperor realm."

"They both spent several million years to succeed."

"Other God Emperors all achieved the God Emperor realm with 'high-tier Eternal Daos'."

"Therefore, throughout the long ages until now, God Kings of various major factions, even those with supreme talent, eventually choose to pioneer 'high-tier Eternal Daos'." God King Master Master Dongmang said.

"Junior Brother, your talent is unparalleled and your comprehension is extremely high. If you are willing, you have a great hope of pioneering a top-tier Eternal Dao... but the future path will also be harder to walk." God King Master Master Dongmang said.

Li Yuan pondered silently.

Limited lifespan! Limited energy!

The path of cultivation is to fight against heaven for one's life... Not to mention God Kings, even God Emperors cannot escape the shackles of lifespan.

Especially himself.

In Li Yuan's plan, he intends to pioneer multiple top-tier Eternal Daos... If he wants to reach the fourth step in all of them, it will be an endless journey.

It can be called the most difficult path.

Suddenly.

"Senior Brother."

"The path of top-tier Eternal Daos is indeed difficult, but since I started cultivating, when has it not been difficult?" Li Yuan laughed: "I am the strongest Half-God and strongest Celestial God in the history of the Divine Court... I also have the confidence to become the strongest God King."

"As for God Emperor?"

"If I don't pursue a top-tier Eternal Dao, how can I become a Supreme?" Li Yuan laughed: "Walking the most difficult path, even if I fail, I will still be the most dazzling God King, enough to leave my name for future generations."

"If I succeed, I will stand at the very peak of the universe, traversing it invincible." Li Yuan said frankly.

In Li Yuan's heart, there has always been a heart that pursues invincibility and greater strength.

If it weren't for this, back when he was a Source Warrior, he wouldn't have pursued the innate eight-star pulse... When he was a Half-God, he wouldn't have bitterly pursued the ten-star pulse.

Seek the highest, and you will attain the middle.

"Good." God King Master Master Dongmang laughed: "That's true. You are already so powerful now; if you really pioneer a top-tier Eternal Dao, tsk tsk... As your Senior Brother, I will wait for that day."

The two communicated.

"Hmm?" God King Master Master Dongmang's eyes moved, and he laughed: "Blood Flame has already sent the ten thousand units of Eternal Crystals over."

"Additionally."

"For every newly promoted God King, the Divine Court has a gift, which is also 'ten thousand units of Eternal Crystals'." God King Master Master Dongmang said: "So, you currently have twenty thousand units of Eternal Crystals under your name."

"Oh?" Li Yuan's eyes lit up.

This was an unexpected joy.

Li Yuan hadn't expected the Divine Court to be so generous... but thinking about it carefully, he understood that the Divine Court didn't lose out.

Most God Kings, before their lifespan limit arrives, except for a few treasures given to bloodline descendants, mostly leave their treasures to the Divine Court.

"Are you planning to exchange for a God King weapon, or?" God King Master Master Dongmang inquired.

"Senior Brother, I want the twenty thousand units of Eternal Crystals; I need them for my cultivation right now." Li Yuan said directly.

Whether it is the original body cultivating star techniques or currently nourishing the divine body and soul, Eternal Crystals are a must.

As for weapons and treasures?

Anyway, the original body is currently hiding here at the Divine Court headquarters, so he is not in a hurry.

"Fine."

"I will send them to you in a moment." God King Master Master Dongmang did not ask for the reason.

……

After this communication with Sovereign Blood Flame and receiving another twenty thousand units of Eternal Crystals, Li Yuan became completely relaxed.

His original body and source bodies were all cultivating wholeheartedly.

The source body first cultivated "Void True Explanation" to success, and then continued with star techniques like "Law Heaven Earth."

And the original body first cultivated "Space Source Body." Only twenty-some years later, consuming over a hundred units of Eternal Crystals, he cultivated this star technique to the eighth-stage extreme and finally cultivated the "Third Original Body."

"Another original body."

"Cultivation efficiency is even higher." Li Yuan revealed a smile: "Survival ability has also greatly improved."

The bodies cultivated by "Space Source Body" are all original bodies.

The third original body also started cultivating the major star techniques from scratch... two hundred-plus years of time.

Li Yuan's three true bodies, after consuming a total of over six thousand units of Eternal Crystals, finally cultivated all star techniques to the eighth-stage extreme.

"So expensive!"

"But it is worth it... If I were to cultivate slowly by myself, I fear all true bodies would have to consume over ten thousand years of time." Li Yuan sighed inwardly.

Some ordinary God Kings might be willing to spend a very long time cultivating slowly to save some Eternal Crystals, but Li Yuan was not willing.

After cultivating the star techniques to the extreme, Li Yuan's three true bodies continued to wholeheartedly comprehend the Space Laws.

In the blink of an eye, five hundred years had passed since Li Yuan stepped into the Celestial God realm.

This day.

"It was a bit slower than I expected."

"But it consumed two Five-Realm Void Stones."

"These Space Laws have finally been comprehended." Li Yuan's true bodies on North Star and at the Chaos Divine Court headquarters simultaneously emitted a vast and ethereal aura.

The five major directions of the Space Laws had finally converged and united in his heart.

"Finally, I can become a Master of the Star Domain."
