Chapter 823: Harvest! Imitation Heavenly Venerate Sacred Armor
A Star City Lord is at least a Sovereign-level powerhouse. A Sovereign sitting in a Star City can greatly increase their strength, easily suppress other Sovereigns, and have a certain ability to protect themselves when facing Supremes.
However.
Among universe cultivators, not everyone will open a Star City. Besides having sufficient strength, they must also make certain contributions to the Immortal God Temple and exchange "Immortal Merits" for the qualification to establish a Star City.
Looking at the vast universe, there are over three hundred publicly known Sovereign powerhouses in this era, but there are only 211 Star Cities, including three Supreme Star Cities—excluding dozens of Abyss-lineage Sovereigns, there are dozens of Sovereigns who have not established Star Cities in the Immortal Heaven and Earth.
According to what Li Yuan knows, the Sovereigns under Supreme Jing have not opened Star Cities.
This is actually a choice and a stance.
Although establishing a Star City does not mean belonging to the Immortal God Temple, it ultimately represents a bias—some Sovereign powerhouses have deep relationships with Eternal organizations such as the Huntian Ancient Ruins, Star Spirit Palace, and Heavenly Demon Sacred Palace, so naturally, they are unwilling to have too deep a tie with the Immortal God Temple.
"God Lord, I am naturally willing to establish a Star City," Li Yuan said.
Once a Star City is established, through the special authority granted by the Star City, the large number of Quasi-Saints under his command cultivating in the Immortal Heaven and Earth will have much higher efficiency.
And the Star City is extremely safe; extraterritorial powerhouses absolutely dare not kill their way in.
"It's just that the God Lord should know that I and Supreme Han Xing are life-and-death enemies. This time in the Sacrificial Realm catastrophe, he even secretly funded Sovereign Yun Jing. If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have been so difficult—long ago, he even publicly offered a reward for me," Li Yuan continued.
"It can be said that our grudges cannot be resolved."
"If I establish a Star City, the Star City cannot move—will he attack me?" Li Yuan said bluntly.
In these thousand-plus years, with Li Yuan's rapid rise and fame in all directions, the Quasi-Saints of the Heart Dream Universe Realm have had a much better situation when venturing into various Eternal Relics.
However, there are still occasional attacks by powerhouses of Supreme Han Xing's lineage.
Overall, it is still the cultivators under Li Yuan who suffer.
"Rest assured about this," the Gold-Robed God Lord smiled. "Although limited by the operating rules of the God Temple, we cannot directly move against Supreme Han Xing. After all, he is also a holder of the Seven-Star Immortal Order and has made great contributions to the God Temple—but as long as you have one true body sitting in the Star City."
"I guarantee that even if his true body descends, he will not be able to shake your Star City," the Gold-Robed God Lord promised. "In addition, once his true body descends into the Immortal Heaven and Earth, I will also send a message to you immediately."
"In that case, thank you, God Lord," Li Yuan said. This was exactly what Li Yuan was waiting for.
Li Yuan had always been very clear that the Immortal God Temple was just a "management organization" left behind by the opener of the Immortal Heaven and Earth, and it must follow various rules left by Eternal existences. The status of the Gold-Robed God Lord, although having certain autonomous authority, was ultimately limited.
Therefore, Li Yuan never expected the other party to help him infinitely, nor did he expect the other party to directly destroy Supreme Han Xing's Star City.
This was unrealistic. Wanting to destroy Supreme Han Xing could ultimately only rely on himself.
"The location of my Star City shall be set here," Li Yuan waved his hand, and a huge light-shadow star map appeared in the void, which was the distribution of the star map of the entire Immortal Heaven and Earth.
A light spot was flashing on it.
The location Li Yuan chose was not far from the Second Immortal God Temple, and quite close to the Tongtian Star City and Qing Tian Luo Star City. It was also at the intersection of many places suitable for low-rank Quasi-Saints to venture.
It was a very good location.
Most importantly.
It was far enough from Supreme Han Xing's Star City and the First Immortal God Temple—even if Supreme Han Xing wanted to launch a sneak attack, Li Yuan would have enough reaction time.
"Good, then here it is." The Gold-Robed God Lord nodded, and with a wave of his hand, a slightly illusory golden order token appeared out of thin air and landed slowly in Li Yuan's palm.
Li Yuan did not block it.
The moment the golden order token shadow touched his palm, Li Yuan's soul trembled slightly, and immediately after, he felt that the "Immortal Order mark" integrated into his soul had produced many subtle changes.
First was authority.
Before, Li Yuan was a holder of the Five-Star Immortal Order, possessing many authorities, and the rare treasures he could exchange for were not few—now, he was directly promoted to a holder of the Seven-Star Immortal Order, and the various precious lands and Emperor Weapons he could exchange for were even more.
"Can even exchange for top-tier Emperor Weapons?" Li Yuan's heart stirred: "However, the first piece requires 100 billion Immortal Merits, the second piece requires 200 billion Immortal Merits, the third piece requires 400 billion Immortal Merits, and for every piece after that, it requires 400 billion Immortal Merits."
This requirement was very astonishing.
Powerful as Supremes, just by killing those extraterritorial lives in the Immortal Heaven and Earth, they absolutely could not accumulate so many Immortal Merits—they must contribute universe rare treasures.
Li Yuan also understood why the Immortal God Temple's requirement for exchanging top-tier Emperor Weapons would be so harsh.
Supremes can refine Emperor Weapons, but for one, it takes an extremely long time, and for another, most can only refine the simplest top-tier Emperor Weapons, such as material attack types and material defense types—many more special top-tier Emperor Weapons are things Supremes cannot refine.
After all, refining top-tier Emperor Weapons requires not only one's own Eternal Dao realm to be high enough, but also extreme proficiency in refining tools.
Like special Emperor Weapons such as the Ancient Universe Realm and Void Transformation Realm Map, they are things that the vast majority of Supremes cannot refine—even soul-type or binding-type Emperor Weapons are difficult for Supremes to refine.
Because of this.
For example, the top-tier Emperor Weapons possessed by Sovereigns are mostly just the two most basic types. This was also the reason why Xiao Mu was so interested in Heart Dream God Emperor refining the "Ancient Universe Realm" back then.
"Holders of the Seven-Star Immortal Order are basically Supremes," Li Yuan thought to himself. "Even if they want to exchange for Emperor Weapons, they must be exchanging for more special top-tier Emperor Weapons."
Integrating the golden order token shadow.
Besides the improvement of the Immortal Order authority, another major function was "sensing." In just an instant, Li Yuan sensed that in a mysterious place, a behemoth seemed to have a subtle connection with him, as if he could control the other party.
This was a sensation similar to refining an Emperor Weapon.
That behemoth should be the Star City.
"Your Star City, I still need to prepare it additionally. In ten years, it will be born at the location you chose," the Gold-Robed God Lord smiled. "Just right, the opening banquet can also be considered important, you can also prepare a little."
"Ten years, good?" Li Yuan nodded slightly. He was not in a hurry.
"Then let it be so."
"Sovereign Brother Xinyuan, you can follow Commander Cang Er to the treasury to exchange for top-tier Emperor Weapons first," the God Lord said. "If there is anything else in the future, I will send a message to you directly."
"Thank you, God Lord," Li Yuan bowed.
Li Yuan followed Commander Cang Er, light-heartedly, and arrived at a layer in the middle of the Immortal God Temple, as if stepping into another space-time.
"Sovereign Brother Xinyuan."
"According to the God Lord's instructions, you can hand over all the treasures that need valuation to me at once, and I will tell you the total value," Commander Cang Er said.
"Good." Li Yuan did not hesitate, flipping his palm to hand over dozens of storage magic treasures, all of which were at the lower-grade Emperor Weapon level.
After all, many rare treasures could not be put into God King-level storage magic treasures.
Soon.
Commander Cang Er checked them one by one, and looked at Li Yuan again: "Sovereign Brother Xinyuan, according to equivalent value trading, the total value of these treasures and rare items you brought out is 1.16 trillion Eternal Crystals."
"Acceptable." Li Yuan showed a smile. This price was much higher than he had expected, which showed that the Immortal God Temple did not suppress the price.
Thinking about it carefully, it was correct.
The Immortal God Temple was willing to trade like this, which was a show of goodwill, so naturally there was no need to suppress the price.
"Sovereign Brother Xinyuan, you can check the top-tier Emperor Weapons that can be exchanged, sense their aura and origin profundity—there will also be the Eternal Crystals required to exchange for each top-tier Emperor Weapon," Commander Cang Er said.
He pointed remotely into the void.
In an instant.
The dim void became brilliant, and one top-tier Emperor Weapon after another emitting powerful aura appeared in the void, as if drifting in an endless ocean—a full four hundred-plus top-tier Emperor Weapons appeared in the world at the same time. What a dazzling scene.
Many top-tier Emperor Weapons immediately attracted Li Yuan's attention.
"Hundred-Luo Dao-Spreading Map, containing Space-Time Dao—"
"Imitation Kun Sacred Armor, containing the merging profundity of Chaos Dao and Myriad Things Dao—"
"Slashing Universe Saber, containing Great Destruction Dao—" With Li Yuan's current realm, in a very short time, he had already sensed a portion of the information from the origins of the four hundred-plus top-tier Emperor Weapons.
It was enough to distinguish whether they were suitable for himself.
The vast majority of these hundreds of top-tier Emperor Weapons were material attack types and material defense types.
Like soul-type, domain-type, space-time-type, and other relatively special ones, the quantity was very small, and those that could be compatible with Li Yuan were even fewer, and most of their prices were incomparably high.
Among these four hundred-plus top-tier Emperor Weapons, the most expensive one was an Emperor Weapon named "Myriad Abyss Book," which was a domain-type Emperor Weapon with astonishing power. The exchange price exceeded two trillion Eternal Crystals—Li Yuan simply couldn't afford to exchange for it.
"Sovereign Brother Xinyuan, how is it?" Commander Cang Er asked.
"Just exchange for these three pieces," Li Yuan pointed remotely into the void, which were three top-tier Emperor Weapons of the most common types: spear, saber, and battle armor.
"Red Spear, Mingyou Saber, Imitation Heavenly Venerate Sacred Armor—good." Commander Cang Er nodded, a thought in his heart, and the three top-tier Emperor Weapons drifting in the void fell down immediately.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Three powerful Eternal Dao intents diffused, surging and impacting in all directions. If it were an ordinary Emperor Realm powerhouse, they would probably feel huge pressure.
But for Li Yuan, who had already refined many top-tier Emperor Weapons, it only felt like a breeze blowing on his face.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Li Yuan reached out his large hand, directly suppressing the three top-tier Emperor Weapons, and surging divine power poured into their origins, quickly branding them with his life imprint.
He collected them into his body.
"These three top-tier Emperor Weapons are all quite extraordinary, and they were all refined by my Immortal God Temple at a huge cost, especially that 'Imitation Heavenly Venerate Sacred Armor,' which was refined after many failures," Commander Cang Er said. "I hope that in the hands of Sovereign Brother Xinyuan, they can exert sufficient power."
"They will definitely not disgrace them," Li Yuan said, and then asked curiously: "Commander Cang Er, is there a magic treasure named 'Heavenly Venerate Sacred Armor'?"
Commander Cang Er smiled without saying a word, clearly acquiescing.
Li Yuan was secretly shocked in his heart.
Even the imitation is a top-tier Emperor Weapon, then the Heavenly Venerate Sacred Armor? And to be able to carry the word "Sacred," is it a weapon used by Eternals?
However, in this vast universe, there is too little intelligence about the Eternal, so Li Yuan could only guess some things.
The reason for choosing these three top-tier Emperor Weapons was simple: their cost-effectiveness was the highest—the total Eternal Crystals required for these three Emperor Weapons was just over 1.1 trillion, which was just about the same as the rare treasures Li Yuan took out.
"When the Abyss Sacrificial Sea opens, many of my true bodies should be out of trouble."
"My nine great true bodies."
"One true body must sit in the home Universe Realm; it is the final life-saving means and cannot be lost. Whether it carries an Emperor Weapon or not is not important," Li Yuan thought very thoroughly. "One true body is guarding the Eternal God Palace and can enter the Immortal Heaven and Earth at any time—this true body must also have a powerful Emperor Weapon."
"The seven great true bodies will participate in the battle directly."
"But one true body will cultivate 'World Demon,' and by then it will only use the Void Transformation Dao Diagram, so it doesn't need other Emperor Weapons."
"One true body will be responsible for manipulating the Ancient Universe Realm and exerting domain means; it will likely not engage in close-quarters killing."
"The other five true bodies are best to all have top-tier Emperor Weapons," Li Yuan thought silently. In this way, if he wanted to erupt with the strongest combat power, he would need at least six attack-type top-tier Emperor Weapons and six defense-type top-tier Emperor Weapons.
And attack-type top-tier Emperor Weapons are the priority.
Plus the two top-tier Emperor Weapon battle sabers obtained from Sovereign Yun Jing, Li Yuan already had four attack-type top-tier Emperor Weapons, and exchanging for two more this time would be enough to gather the attack-type top-tier Emperor Weapons he needed.
"By the way."
"Commander Cang Er, I still have over 100 billion Immortal Merits under my name. I have never used Immortal Merits to exchange for top-tier Emperor Weapons. By logic, I can spend another 100 billion Immortal Merits to choose any one more Emperor Weapon," Li Yuan smiled. "Can I exchange for that 'Thousand-Heart Emperor Ring'?"
Commander Cang Er was stunned for a moment.
By logic, Li Yuan had already exchanged for three top-tier Emperor Weapons. If he wanted to exchange for a fourth top-tier Emperor Weapon, he would need to spend 400 billion Immortal Merits.
But Li Yuan had indeed never used Immortal Merits to exchange for top-tier Emperor Weapons.
Suddenly.
A low voice sounded in Commander Cang Er's mind: "Cang Er, allowed!" ===== CHAPTER 824 =====
