Chapter 695: Qing Tian Luoxingcheng
"Senior overpraises." Li Yuan said quickly.
"Haha, I didn't overpraise," Divine King Senior Huanxin was also quite free and easy, laughing: "In the history of my Chaos Divine Court, nearly four thousand Divine Kings have been born, and now there are nearly three thousand Quasi-Saints in the Chaos Mansion... but in the past billion years, only you alone have been praised by the Chaos Divine Emperor."
"Although you have just arrived in the Immortal Heaven and Earth."
"But your reputation has long been known to the three thousand Quasi-Saints, and it is publicly recognized that you will become the fourth Mansion Master of my Chaos Mansion," Divine King Senior Huanxin laughed: "Little Friend Brother Xinyuan, don't be humble."
"Junior Brother, what Senior Senior Huanxin said is true, Black Stone Divine King, Feng Yan Divine King and others have always had true bodies waiting in the Immortal Heaven and Earth, and they all know this matter," King Shenmang Master Dongmang also said on the side.
Li Yuan was surprised in his heart, it turned out that his reputation had spread so far.
"Senior, perhaps I can enter the Emperor-level in the future, but at present I am still far inferior to you," Li Yuan still said: "Moreover, I can have today, and it is also thanks to Senior... When I was young, I practiced "Senior Huanxin Divine Canon", in a sense, you are half my guide."
"Haha."
"Too much, too much..." Divine King Senior Huanxin shook his head and laughed: "You comprehend my secret learning, but what you opened up is the World Path," Divine King Senior Huanxin shook his head and laughed: "I dare not claim credit."
He said so on his lips, but Li Yuan's attitude also made him feel comfortable.
No matter who is blown by a peerless genius like this, the mood will not be bad.
"How about this," Divine King Senior Huanxin smiled: "Brother Xinyuan, Master Dongmang, you are both Quasi-Saints, in the cultivation path, the one who reaches first is the master, and those at the same level are friends," Divine King Senior Huanxin smiled: "You don't need to call me Senior anymore, I am a few years older than you, just call me 'Big Brother Senior Huanxin', and I will call you by your names directly, how about it?"
Li Yuan and King Shenmang Master Dongmang looked at each other and nodded in response.
They understood that this was Divine King Senior Huanxin's show of goodwill.
Especially King Winterglow, he knew very well that he was benefiting from Li Yuan's face... Otherwise, this wasn't the first time he had met God King Illusion Heart, so why hadn't the other party been so polite before.
Difference in strength, difference in potential.
The attitude naturally has a distinction.
Time passed, the three continued to communicate, and Divine King Senior Huanxin asked about the ambush, after all, he came specifically to rescue them.
King Shenmang Master Dongmang also quickly explained the cause and effect.
"Oh?"
"You actually suppressed Quasi-Saint Moyue's eight Quasi-Saint puppets?" Divine King Senior Huanxin was slightly surprised: "I originally thought you had escaped... to be able to force the other party to flee when two fought five, amazing."
"Mainly because of Junior Brother Brother Xinyuan's suppression means," King Shenmang Master Dongmang said.
"Senior Brother, your ability to restrain the three Divine Kings is the main reason," Li Yuan said quickly.
"Haha, you Junior Brothers don't need to praise each other," Divine King Senior Huanxin laughed: "Quasi-Saint Moyue's eight Quasi-Saint puppets also have some fame, it is what he spent millions of Immortal Merit to exchange from the Immortal Divine Palace... once lost, I am afraid that after a period of time, he will still find you to exchange back, you can ruthlessly blackmail a sum."
"Can't sell to other forces?" Li Yuan asked.
"Not worth it."
"Other treasures are fine, but puppets produced by the Immortal Divine Palace have 'Eternal restrictions' in their origin, and only the exchanger can use them... Legend has it that only some Supremes in history can crack them and let others recognize them as masters again," Divine King Senior Huanxin said: "Otherwise, they can only be dismantled and re-refined into some materials, and the value is very low."
Li Yuan understood.
Puppets, the most precious is the origin core, but the Immortal Divine Palace... obviously will not let puppet treasures spread wantonly.
No wonder Quasi-Saint Moyue would say that this thing has the highest value in his hands.
"Of course."
"If Brother Xinyuan, you don't want to let Quasi-Saint Moyue buy it back, then sell it back to the Immortal Divine Palace, the Immortal Divine Palace's acquisition price will be higher than the materials," Divine King Senior Huanxin laughed: "I estimate, all added together, it should also be able to sell for a million Eternal Crystals."
"A million Eternal Crystals?" Li Yuan nodded.
Treasures exchanged from the Immortal Divine Palace can also be sold back to the Immortal Divine Palace, but when exchanging, one must use 'Immortal Merit', but when selling back, one can only get Eternal Crystals.
There is no room for negotiation.
Obviously, the operation of the entire Immortal Heaven and Earth is very tight on 'Immortal Merit'. If the practitioner is not strong enough and does not make great contributions to the Immortal Heaven and Earth, it is impossible to get a large amount of Immortal Merit.
"Go."
"First return to the Chaos Mansion, Brother Xinyuan has just arrived in the Immortal Heaven and Earth... many Quasi-Saints of the Chaos Mansion have received the news and are now preparing a welcome celebration," Divine King Senior Huanxin smiled: "And, Elder Huo Qu just specifically transmitted a message to me, asking me to take you to see him first."
"Elder Huo Qu?" Li Yuan revealed a hint of doubt.
"Junior Brother, my Chaos Mansion, besides the three Mansion Masters, has six Elders... all six Elders are Emperor-level, and the one responsible for managing many Quasi-Saints now is Elder Huo Qu," King Shenmang Master Dongmang added on the side.
"Six Elders, all Emperor-level?" Li Yuan was surprised.
Since when are there so many Emperor-level powerhouses?
"Six Elders, three are Emperor-level puppets, all exchanged by Divine Emperors from the Immortal Divine Palace," Divine King Senior Huanxin smiled: "The other three are native Emperor-level powerhouses of the Immortal Heaven and Earth, who have taken refuge under my Chaos Mansion and are seeking protection."
"Whether it is Emperor-level puppets or native Emperor-level powerhouses, they cannot leave the Immortal Heaven and Earth." Divine King Senior Huanxin said.
Li Yuan suddenly understood, so that was it.
"Native lifeforms, can also join the Star City?" Li Yuan asked.
In the intelligence he knew, major Star Cities seemed to be just places where cosmic powerhouses gathered.
"Yes."
"But they are only in the status of servants," Divine King Senior Huanxin said: "We obtain the Immortal Order, as long as we consume a certain amount of Immortal Merit, we can get servant quotas, and can plant 'Immortal Soul Talismans' in the souls of native lifeforms, and then enslave the other party."
"Therefore."
"In the Immortal Heaven and Earth, many powerhouses will enslave some native lifeforms... once enslavement is successful, these native lifeforms will be absolutely loyal, and puppets are the same," Divine King Senior Huanxin sighed: "It's just that the cost of exchanging for an Immortal Soul Talisman quota is extremely high, so very few ordinary Quasi-Saints exchange for them."
"And many native lifeforms are proud and arrogant, and are not easily willing to submit... The weak ones are not worth using enslavement quotas, it's better to directly exchange for Quasi-Saint puppets."
"The strong ones are difficult to enslave."
"Therefore, below Fifth-Rank Quasi-Saint, there are basically no native lifeform servants."
"So that's it." Li Yuan completely understood, the six great Elders of the Chaos Mansion... called Emperor-level Elders, but in reality, they were all subordinates of the three Mansion Masters.
I am afraid, it is for the convenience of the Mansion Masters to manage many ordinary Quasi-Saints.
Moreover.
According to Li Yuan's guess, it is highly likely that they are controlled by the Chaos Divine Emperor or the Heart Dream Divine Emperor... Although Divine Emperor Master Juexing is his master, Li Yuan has to admit that his master's strength is the weakest among the three Divine Emperors.
"When fighting with other forces."
"Led by these Emperor-level Elders to display formations, it can also play a great role for the three Mansion Masters," Divine King Senior Huanxin said: "In short, we Eighth-Rank practitioners, facing the six great Elders, still have to be respectful."
"Go."
"I'll take you."
Divine King Senior Huanxin waved his hand, and an invisible force shrouded the two, quickly crossing the galaxy, the speed was astonishing.
"What a fast speed." Li Yuan felt surprised, in the Immortal Heaven and Earth, space-time is extremely stable, therefore, from the flight speed, one can judge the approximate strength of the practitioner.
"Big Brother Senior Huanxin, are you still at the Divine King perfection strength?" Li Yuan could not help but ask.
In the records of the Chaos Divine Court, Divine King Senior Huanxin was at the Divine King perfection strength back then, and was the 'Divine Realm's Number One Divine King' of that era.
But from the other party's flight speed, Li Yuan felt a trace of something wrong.
Divine King Senior Huanxin revealed a smile upon hearing this.
"Junior Brother, Big Brother Senior Huanxin is already a candidate Elder of the Divine Mansion," King Shenmang Master Dongmang said: "In the Divine Mansion, candidate Elders are all held by Divine Kings. Besides having to make certain contributions to the Divine Mansion, they must also possess 'Sixth-Rank Quasi-Saint' strength."
"Sixth-Rank Quasi-Saint? Divine King Invincible?" Li Yuan was secretly surprised.
Divine King Invincible existence!
In the history of the Chaos Divine Court, those who reached this level were also few and far between, and according to what Li Yuan knew, Divine King Senior Huanxin was only an Eight-Star Pulse Divine King back then.
Divine body is weak.
Can also reach the Divine King Invincible level?
It seems to be because he saw Li Yuan's doubt, Divine King Senior Huanxin said: "This is not a secret, back then when I was still in the Heart Dream Universe Realm, what I opened up was an unknown top-tier Eternal Dao, which is somewhat similar to the Heart Tool Dao, but not exactly the same."
Li Yuan listened.
Eternal Dao, why is it called Dao-Opening?
The most fundamental reason is that every Eternal Dao is not exactly the same... even if it is the same World Path, Myriad Spirit Path, there will be subtle differences in the hands of different powerhouses.
Moreover!
The publicly known nine top-tier Eternal Paths are not really the only nine... The reason why the nine are widely known is because only these nine have been verified by generations of cosmic powerhouses, and can take the fourth step and eventually achieve Supreme.
This is nine very mature Eternal Paths.
But some super powerhouses in history, in constant comprehension and deduction, took some unknown Eternal Paths. Some of these unknown Eternal Paths are strong and some are weak... their biggest flaw is that there are almost no predecessors who can be used for reference and guidance, and one can only move forward in the dark.
Moving forward in the dark, it is very easy to go astray.
Once the Dao has flaws, wanting to improve to a higher level is as difficult as ascending to heaven.
Plus the nine top-tier Eternal Paths, almost encompassing most paths... Therefore, even if some Eternal Paths have power comparable to top-tier Eternal Paths, very few can take the fourth step.
And even fewer have achieved Supreme.
"I was originally an Eight-Star Pulse Divine King, wanting to become a Divine Emperor, I have to reconstruct my divine body to reach the bottom line of entering the Emperor-level... the difficulty is too high," Divine King Senior Huanxin was slightly emotional: "Plus the time consumed by Dao-Opening, in the end, I failed."
Li Yuan could not help but nod.
Eight-Star Pulse becoming a Divine Emperor is not without hope... Divine King Realm, after Dao-Opening, is already above heaven and earth, and there is hope to reconstruct one's own divine grid and inner universe.
Just like King Shenmang Master Dongmang, his divine body has now surpassed the ordinary Nine-Star Divine King body. It's just that wanting to make the divine body completely transform and evolve is still difficult.
Plus Eight-Star Pulse Divine Kings generally have lower comprehension... In short, many reasons, at least according to what Li Yuan knew from Xiao Mu, even in the era of the Honghe Universe Alliance, there were no examples of Eight-Star Pulse becoming a Divine Emperor.
Eight-Star Pulse becoming a Divine Emperor is not a dead end.
But it is ultimately only a theoretical possibility.
"I have been in the Immortal Heaven and Earth for a long time, and have many opportunities, plus the help of Divine Emperors... making my divine body structure go a step further, and it is almost the same as the Nine-Star Divine King body," Divine King Senior Huanxin said frankly: "In the Eternal Dao, through many methods, I have also gone a step further, which can be called reaching the Third-Step peak."
"Plus I accumulated Immortal Merit, and finally exchanged for two Divine Weapons suitable for myself... finally making my strength reach the Sixth-Rank Quasi-Saint level."
Li Yuan understood.
Divine body, Eternal Dao, external treasures... progress in many aspects made Divine King Senior Huanxin's overall strength much stronger than when he was in the Universe Realm.
Sixth-Rank Quasi-Saint.
It is the top-tier strength that can be reached under normal circumstances below the Emperor-level, stronger ones? Theoretically there are, but they are too rare.
"In the Divine Mansion, how many candidate Elders are there now?" Li Yuan asked curiously.
"Twelve," Divine King Senior Huanxin said: "In terms of strength, I should be in the lower-middle among these candidate Elders, not strong."
Twelve?
Even though he had expected it, Li Yuan still felt some emotion.
In the Heart Dream Universe Realm, due to lifespan, the number of contemporary Divine King perfection level powerhouses is few and far between... But in the Immortal Heaven and Earth, powerhouses of many eras gather in one world.
There are quite a few who have reached the Divine King Invincible level.
The Chaos Mansion alone has twelve... looking at the entire Qing Tian Luoxingcheng, I am afraid there are hundreds of them.
The entire Immortal Heaven and Earth? There will only be more.
"Candidate Elders have twelve, but Big Brother Senior Huanxin is the most powerful Dao among these twelve candidate Elders," King Shenmang Master Dongmang laughed: "These twelve candidate Elders, ten are 'Ten-Star Pulse Divine Kings', and there is also one Nine-Star Pulse Divine King."
"The only one from an Eight-Star Pulse Divine King background is Big Brother."
"Not just the Chaos Mansion."
"Looking at the entire Qing Tian Luoxingcheng, there are only two who have reached the Divine King Invincible level from an Eight-Star Pulse background," King Shenmang Master Dongmang sighed: "Enough to prove Big Brother Senior Huanxin's extraordinary... the Chaos Divine Emperor also once said that Big Brother Senior Huanxin has great hope of finally entering the Emperor-level."
Divine body is weak, but strength is powerful.
This shows that the Dao is extremely strong.
"Enter the Emperor-level?"
"A person who is sleeping and waiting to die, don't expect these anymore," Divine King Senior Huanxin shook his head: "I already belong to the past... Brother Xinyuan, the future belongs to you."
Divine King Senior Huanxin said indifferently, but his voice also carried a hint of sadness.
Li Yuan sighed in his heart.
Enter the Emperor-level?
In the slumber of the Emperor-level inner universe space-time, the true body roams in the Immortal Heaven and Earth... theoretically there is still hope for a breakthrough, but the probability is too small, too small.
"Li Yuan."
"This Senior Huanxin's potential is indeed not bad, if Big Brother Beihe were still here, perhaps he could help him try to break through," Xiao Mu's voice rang out.
"Oh?" Li Yuan was curious.
"He cannot break through, essentially because of the environment, his true body's lifespan is not enough... the true body waiting in the Immortal Heaven and Earth has a pitifully low efficiency in deducing the Eternal Dao," Xiao Mu said: "But if he pays a large enough price, letting him practice normally in the Immortal Heaven and Earth for a period of time is doable."
Li Yuan's heart stirred, practice normally in the Immortal Heaven and Earth?
"It's just that the price is huge."
"Even a Divine Emperor peak, generally wouldn't be willing... After all, letting a Divine King who has reached the Third-Step limit of the Eternal Dao practice normally for several thousand years, tens of thousands of years, the probability of breakthrough is also very low," Xiao Mu said.
"Also." Li Yuan sighed.
Most Divine Kings, after spending tens of millions of years, have not become Divine Emperors... can they become one with several thousand or tens of thousands of years more lifespan? I am afraid that among dozens, it is difficult to find one who succeeds.
Like King Shenmang Master Dongmang, he still has a million years of lifespan, and the Eternal Dao has reached the Third-Step limit, but he still chose to enter a slumber, because he did not have a shred of certainty.
This last step, for countless low-level Quasi-Saints, is like a chasm.
Not long after.
Divine King Senior Huanxin brought Li Yuan and King Shenmang Master Dongmang to arrive.
"Qing Tian Luoxingcheng has arrived," Divine King Senior Huanxin waved his hand, put away the warship, and a vast continent appeared in front of Li Yuan and King Shenmang Master Dongmang in the distant starry sky.
The continent is unimaginably vast.
Above the continent, there are many Star Cities suspended... and on the outer periphery, there are a large number of micro-stars operating, brilliant and endless, illuminating the entire continent brightly.
And the stars and continents operating in the week vaguely form a whole, as if eternal and immortal, giving people a feeling of being unshakable.
"Formation."
"This continent is a formation operating completely?" Li Yuan sensed from afar, and in a trance, he had a feeling of facing the Abyssal Divine Emperor again.
But at that time, the Abyssal Divine Emperor was erupting with all his strength.
And this Qing Tian Luoxingcheng was silent.
"Yes."
"Qing Tian Luoxingcheng has a complete defensive formation," Divine King Senior Huanxin nodded: "Every Star City establishment is a huge price paid by Lords, relying on the help of the Immortal Divine Palace to do it... Star City is a safe place for us cosmic powerhouses, and also a paradise for countless native lifeforms, and a large number of weak native lifeforms will be born in the Star City."
"Outside the Star City, we will encounter ambushes by Otherworld lifeforms, and the Immortal Merit we need to survive is huge."
"But inside the Star City, we are very safe."
"It's just that nothing is absolute."
"In history, there have also been Star Cities breached."
"However, as long as the Lord sits in person, even if many Immortal Demon Lairs join forces... it is difficult to breach a Star City," Divine King Senior Huanxin said.
Li Yuan nodded.
Star City is very safe, but not absolute... for example, the Lord falls, the Star City loses its strongest guardian and has the possibility of falling.
For example, multiple Abyssal Lords join forces to descend... or for example, an Abyssal Supreme is born, and the Supreme power can also suppress a Star City.
Or for example, the joint counterattack of native lifeforms.
According to what Li Yuan knows, in this era, there are a total of 211 Star Cities in the entire Immortal Heaven and Earth space-time.
Whoosh!
Divine King Senior Huanxin brought Li Yuan and King Shenmang Master Dongmang, and quickly flew to a dedicated passage entering the continent... Although Qing Tian Luoxingcheng is vast, it is a vast continent.
But there are only 12 fixed entry and exit passages, all guarded by special powerhouses.
Visible to the naked eye, there are quite a few powerhouses entering and exiting the passage, judging from the aura exuded, Li Yuan can judge... most are not Quasi-Saints.
On both sides of the passage, there are multiple black-armored Quasi-Saint puppets guarding.
"Those black-armored Quasi-Saint puppets are just Quasi-Saint puppets, responsible for verifying those entering the city," Divine King Senior Huanxin said: "Brother Xinyuan, you are arriving in Qing Tian Luoxingcheng for the first time, you need to register and receive the Star City Order... According to Elder Huo Qu's instructions, you will be directly given a Star Guard Order."
"Junior Brother."
"Inside the Star City, identity tokens are divided from low to high into Star Servant Order, Dark Star Order, Star Guard Order, Protection Order, Elder Order, City Lord Order," King Shenmang Master Dongmang said: "Most Quasi-Saints of my Chaos Mansion are only Dark Star Orders, and can only be counted as 'residents' of Qing Tian Luoxingcheng."
"My Chaos Mansion, besides the three Mansion Masters who are 'Protection Orders', can only issue Star Guard Orders at the highest... and the quantity is limited," King Shenmang Master Dongmang said.
Li Yuan understood.
Back then, when Purple Fire Divine King sent a gift, he had said that only Dark Star Order and above could possess many special permissions of Qing Tian Luoxingcheng, and could be recognized by the Star City.
Dark Star Order? Just able to live normally.
Star Servant Order? It is prepared for those Eighth-Rank practitioners who have not opened the Dao, equivalent to an attendant... the status is very low.
When the three of them approached the passage, two black-armored Quasi-Saint puppets had already approached.
Divine King Senior Huanxin was about to speak.
Suddenly.
"Hum~"
An invisible force gathered, forming a golden-armored figure, with extraordinary aura, and two strange characters 'Qing Tian Luo' engraved on his chest.
And the characters on the Protection Order Li Yuan obtained were the same.
"Brother Senior Huanxin, how have you been lately?" The golden-armored figure smiled, his gaze sweeping over the three.
"Quasi-Saint Heichong, what wind blew you here?" Divine King Senior Huanxin laughed, but felt doubt in his heart, transmitting his voice to Li Yuan and the two: "Quasi-Saint Heichong is a Sixth-Rank Quasi-Saint of the Qing Tian Luo Universe Alliance, do not offend him."
Li Yuan and King Shenmang Master Dongmang both understood.
Qing Tian Luoxingcheng is essentially established by the Qing Tian Luo Universe Alliance, although it is said that the Qing Tian Luo Universe Alliance treats all major forces joining the Star City equally... but with equal strength, powerhouses of the Qing Tian Luo Universe Alliance ultimately have a higher status.
"Could it be that you are inviting me to roam some dangerous place?" Divine King Senior Huanxin laughed: "But I don't have time now, I have to take two brothers back to the Divine Mansion first."
"Haha."
"Brother Senior Huanxin, I am not specifically looking for you today," the golden-armored figure laughed, his gaze falling on Li Yuan, bowing slightly: "I am responsible for guarding this passage recently, and just sensed the arrival of Protection Order Brother Xinyuan, therefore, I came to meet you."
"Protection Order Brother Xinyuan?" Divine King Senior Huanxin and King Shenmang Master Dongmang were both stunned.
(End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 696 =====
Li Yuan and King Winterglow both understood.
Qing Tian Luoxingcheng was essentially established by the Qing Tian Luo Universe Alliance. Although the Qing Tian Luo Universe Alliance treats all forces joining the Star City equally... but with equal strength, the experts of the Qing Tian Luo Universe Alliance ultimately have a higher status.
"Could it be that you are inviting me to venture into some dangerous place?" God King Illusion Heart smiled: "But I don't have time right now, I have to take my two brothers back to the Divine Mansion first."
"Haha."
"Brother Illusion Heart, I'm not specifically looking for you today," the golden-armored figure smiled, his gaze falling on Li Yuan, and he bowed slightly: "I have been responsible for guarding this passage recently, and just now I sensed the arrival of Protector Brother Xinyuan, so I came to meet you."
"Protector Brother Xinyuan?" God King Illusion Heart and King Winterglow were both stunned.
