Departure (6K)_4\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the process of cultivation, Li Yuan experienced countless Illusionary Realms and moments when the Dream Realm Stone took over, gaining profound insights along the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He believed his mind to be clear enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, when faced with the thought that this farewell might be a “final goodbye” to many friends and elders, Li Yuan still felt deeply conflicted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ultimate goal of cultivating the “Six Realms of Illusion” is to fully master the Seven Emotions and Six Desires.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To control emotions does not mean to extinguish them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the contrary, the deeper Li Yuan cultivated the “Six Realms of Illusion,” the more he valued emotions in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Life—every laugh, every anger, every tear—is born of one’s heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cultivation is to pursue a longer life and witness more wonders,” Li Yuan murmured to himself. “But it is never simply for the sake of enduring endless time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To live for billions of years without emotion or desire—how would that differ from being a mere stone?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Big brother, I will always stand by you,” Liu Bing communicated through her thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mhm,” Li Yuan replied with a faint smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In outer space above the Source Star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yuan was meditating in silence when a figure draped in fiery red robes approached from the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was none other than Lin Lanyue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Li Yuan, a message has arrived from the Lie Feng Plane,” Lin Lanyue said softly. “The Lie Feng Semi-Divine… he’s nearing his limit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yuan opened his eyes, an inexplicable light flickering in his gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Years ago, Li Yuan had specifically traveled to the Lie Feng Plane to visit the Lie Feng Semi-Divine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet now, he hadn’t even ventured to the Divine Realm, and the Semi-Divine was already at the brink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Back then, I bid farewell to Teacher Xu Bo.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And now, must I say goodbye to Teacher Lie Feng as well?” A tremor ran through Li Yuan’s heart. These two teachers, while not the mightiest in strength, held a unique place in his soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, yet another would depart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, I’ll go immediately,” Li Yuan said, rising to his feet and heading toward the former territory of the Myriad Demons Civilization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A transfer was necessary to reach the Lie Feng Plane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Lie Feng Plane contained only one Life Star, and the population on the planet was sparse, limited to just one city—Lie Feng City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no alternative.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with the aid of the Seven Star Civilization in rebuilding, the remnants of the clan were too few. Even after gathering some from lower-level civilizations, their numbers barely exceeded a few thousand… nearly a decade had passed, and the entire clan had only recovered to a level of about ten thousand people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That number was merely the equivalent of a small town’s population.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh! Li Yuan traversed through the void. Under the cover of his Divine Sense, he arrived directly at a modest palace in the depths of Lie Feng City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the palace, a large crowd of Lie Feng clanspeople had already gathered. Nearly everyone in the clan was present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many families brought along their children as they came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wails of sorrow echoed continuously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Lie Feng Semi-Divine, in the current Lie Feng Clan… was a supreme existence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Li Yuan the Semi-Divine has arrived.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Li Yuan the Semi-Divine? The legendary Seven-Star Civilization Leader is here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Li Yuan the Semi-Divine is the great benefactor of our clan!!” Many among the Lie Feng Clan gazed at the figure clad in black garments who appeared silently in the void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the Lie Feng Clan, their feelings of gratitude toward Li Yuan were no exception. Portraits of Li Yuan hung across every corner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a single step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yuan approached the bedside of the Lie Feng Semi-Divine and bowed respectfully. “Disciple Li Yuan greets Teacher.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No need for formalities, rise quickly,” the Lie Feng Semi-Divine waved his hand repeatedly. His life force was rapidly fading, but his mind remained sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The many Lie Feng clanspeople, seeing this, retreated to the back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They all understood that the survival of their civilization was owed entirely to the fact that their Ancestor was Li Yuan the Semi-Divine’s teacher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I can scarce believe it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In this lifetime of mine, nearing its end, I still managed to have a disciple like you,” the Lie Feng Semi-Divine said with a smile. “Li Yuan, it’s my great fortune.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You overpraise me, Teacher,” Li Yuan replied softly. “I wonder if there are any unfulfilled wishes left for you, Teacher?”\u003C\u002Fp>",760,"2026-06-02T11:54:12.498Z",1,"novelbin.me","65a852a9b7f1bb78d15d81638ffe4caaaf338bd431b7ed798ee231252d5b1914","high-level-martial-era-chapter-995","high-level-martial-era-chapter-993",1963,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhigh-level-martial-era-cover.jpg"]
