High-Level Martial Era - Chapter 551

Chapter 551: Chapter 318: Slaying the Beast Emperor! The Six Great Alien Gods (Added Chapters 32 and 33)_4
 

Every statue towered over a thousand feet, standing tall and broadcasting a vast presence.

A ferocious flame aura.

A nimble melody of the wind.

A profound vibration of the earth.

A sharp aura of metal.

…

Six humanoid statues, all with their eyes closed tight, emitting completely distinct auras, allowing one to broadly distinguish the differences between the Six Great Alien Gods.

“Hum~” Invisible fluctuations swept by, and a large amount of light converged, forming a formidable and bulky figure with a horn.

“Elder Qiu,” Li Yuan’s eyes lit up.

“Your strength is much more formidable than I had imagined,” lamented Qiu Bingzun. “A battle against two 35th level beings of the Flying Heaven level, and it ended with one dead and one fleeing.”

“Luck,” Li Yuan said with a smile, though he inwardly sighed.

His earlier analysis was indeed correct, Qiu Bingzun and that training officer probably had intimate knowledge of every part of the Mothership… but they would not intervene, instead allowing the various factions to fight amongst themselves.

“Having come to the region of Alien Gods signifies that you are qualified to come into contact with the inheritance left by the Six Great Alien Gods,” said Qiu Bingzun. “Follow me, let me introduce you to a thing or two.”

“Yes,” Li Yuan promptly followed.

Whoosh!

Qiu Bingzun landed in front of the first statue, which was radiating a powerful flame aura.

“These six statues are left by the Six Great Alien Gods,” Qiu Bingzun spoke softly.

“Are these Alien Gods all from the Human Race?” Li Yuan asked curiously.

All around were humanoid statues.

“Of course not, among the Six Great Alien Gods, only one is a true member of the Human Race,” Qiu Bingzun said with a smile. “But in the endless river of dimensions, the Human Race’s body is the most imbued with Spiritual Nature, and they possess the highest Comprehension… Thus, deities of various races, upon becoming Divine, will often transform into humanoid forms, which are more conducive to cultivation. Usually, only when engaging in battle will they transform into their true forms.”

“Only after becoming Divine can one perfectly transform their body,” Qiu Bingzun added. “These statues here all resemble the humanoid forms of these Alien Gods.”

Li Yuan suddenly understood; the Human Race body indeed contained such profound mysteries.

“Look.”

“Beneath each Divine statue, there are nine stone steles,” Qiu Bingzun pointed to the steles and continued slowly: “These steles constitute the First Layer of the trial. Within the steles, the cultivation insights of these Divine beings are contained… What you must do is to comprehend the steles.”

“The more you comprehend, the more aid you will have in obtaining the Divine Being Inheritance.”

“There is no time limit on your comprehension.”

“When you feel that your comprehension is profound enough… you may proceed along the passage behind the stele to accept the final test… The passage will lead to the site of Divine Being Inheritance,” Qiu Bingzun said.

Li Yuan couldn’t help but look towards the passage beneath the towering statue. It wasn’t very big, but it seemed extremely mysterious.

He had no idea what lay in the depths, nor where it led.

“You may freely comprehend any of the steles left by the Six Great Alien Gods, but in the end, you can only choose one Alien God’s heritage site to undertake. Remember, you only have one chance. Whether you can gain great advantages depends on yourself,” Qiu Bingzun looked at Li Yuan and said.

“Yes,” Li Yuan nodded, but then couldn’t resist asking, “Elder, to gain the benefits of the inheritance, must one fully understand all nine steles?”

“Naturally, that is not the case.”

“Third Order Life beings must fully grasp every stele to have a chance at the inheritance,” Qiu Bingzun said. “For Second Rank Life, comprehending just the first six steles can offer a good chance.”

“The first six steles?” Li Yuan’s interest was piqued, that shouldn’t be too difficult.

“Alright,” he replied.

“That which I needed to tell you, I have said,” Qiu Bingzun said, looking at Li Yuan. “From now on, it’s up to you.”

“Go and choose the Alien God steles that best suit your understanding.”
