High-Level Martial Era - Chapter 562

Chapter 562: Chapter 322: Death News! Awakening (Seeking Monthly Tickets at Month’s End)
 

To obtain what he desired, a price had to be paid? Li Yuan pondered deeply.

The Heavenly Serpent Divine had paid such a great price, especially by bringing this mothership, there must be some scheming involved.

There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world, especially from those who are neither family nor friends.

“To go or not to go?” A flicker of hesitation crossed Li Yuan’s mind.

He quickly weighed his options.

Having barely made it through the ten trials of the Heavenly Serpent Divine, when push came to shove, how could he just give up?

If the Heavenly Serpent Divine truly wanted to force him to do something, he was already inside the mothership, and just by the means the other party had shown, he was completely powerless to resist, there was no need to offer him a choice.

This meant that whatever the Heavenly Serpent Divine had left behind wasn’t that malicious, at least it wasn’t purely malicious.

The most critical point was that Xue Yan and the Myriad Scales Beast Emperor… both had already entered the inner layer, and might enter the core area at any moment.

Especially Xue Yan.

According to Elder Qiu’s words just now, his level of skill should have already reached ‘Sixth Stage High Rank’, which was a terrifying level of skill for a Prime Warrior, so it was no wonder he could become a disciple of the Divine.

Such a genius, letting him attempt the challenge… Li Yuan had a feeling that the Heavenly Serpent Divine might be no weaker than the Ancient Torch Divine, and could even be stronger.

Such a treasure left by a powerful Divine Being.

It could completely change the power dynamics between different civilizations.

If it fell into the hands of the Myriad Demons Civilization, the Seven Star Civilization would face even greater pressure in the future.

“There’s danger, but it’s also an opportunity.”

“I received the inheritance of the Ancient Torch Divine, which allowed me to make rapid progress and grow quickly,” Li Yuan thought to himself, “If I can get a share of the Heavenly Serpent Divine’s treasure, it will help me grow even faster.”

The path of cultivation should be steady above all.

Therefore, before venturing out into the Star Realms, Li Yuan always strove to reach the peak of his strength.

But when it’s time to fight, you have to fight.

“Thank you for the reminder, Elder Xie Qiu.” Having made up his mind, Li Yuan said respectfully, “If there’s no difference between going sooner or later, then I might as well go now.”

“Fine.”

“You chose this path yourself,” Elder Qiu revealed a slight smile, “I have warned you several times… in the future, don’t come blaming me.”

Before Li Yuan could speak again.

Whoosh!

With a wave of Elder Qiu’s hand, an invisible force emerged out of thin air, directly enveloping Li Yuan.

“Boom!” Li Yuan felt a thunderous roar in his head, swept by a terrifying force he couldn’t resist; even with his Spiritual Will, he couldn’t block this force’s invasion… In an instant, he fell into unconsciousness.

Immediately after, Li Yuan’s body vanished into thin air.

Only the towering Phantom with a single horn remained in the hall.

“The first plan has failed.”

“Originally, the plan was to temporarily choose Xue Yan, who was barely acceptable as a replacement.” Elder Qiu murmured to himself, “I didn’t expect to be directly presented with such an extraordinary genius, even in the vast Divine Realm, geniuses like this are very rare.”

“We can start on the second plan.”

“It seems as if the heavens themselves are blessing our Heavenly Serpent clan,” Elder Qiu thought to himself, “Spirit Gun? Li Yuan? I hope, with my help, you won’t disappoint me.”

“Go and grasp that slim hope.”

…

In the Mingxu Star Realm, Bright Moon Base.

While Li Yuan was venturing inside the mothership.

Tavares, Jiang Zai, Luo Chan, and the others had already retreated back to Bright Moon Base.

As time passed day by day, with no news coming from the mothership, many True Intent Martial Artists were leaving… After all, these Martial Artists each had their own cultivation plans and couldn’t wait forever in the Mingxu Star Realm.

Of course, under the higher-ups’ coordination, Bright Moon Base still maintained formidable combat strength.

Inside one of the Fourth-order Battleships, within a super-large conference room, on one side, two special instruments were placed, exuding an invisible force, and two blood-red Crystal Stones floated in the middle, supported by the instruments.

These were Life Crystals, representing the Marks of life for Yu Jinghe and Li Yuan respectively.

The state of the Life Crystals could be used to judge their life and death.

In this conference room, Martial Artists would take turns guarding the Life Crystals, watching over them at all times.

Suddenly.

One of the blood-red Crystal Stones suddenly erupted in a burst of light, the brilliance was so intense that it almost covered the entire super-large conference room, and then as the light receded, it quickly dimmed, turning the Crystal Stone completely ‘white’.

“What?”

“This!” The two Martial Artists guarding that day, seeing this scene, were utterly shocked.

They looked at each other with horror in their eyes, “It’s Spirit Gun’s Life Crystal.”

“The Life Crystal has dimmed!”

Without any hesitation, the two Martial Artists immediately initiated emergency communication, and soon Tavares, Jiang Zai, and Luo Chan rushed over.

The three of them were the current leaders at Bright Moon Base.

When they saw the dimmed Life Crystal, their hearts trembled, fully aware of what it meant.

A dimmed Life Crystal indicated the death of its host.

“Spirit Gun, dead? Fallen in the Divine Land?” Tavares’s heart shook, “How is that possible, how could the powerful Spirit Gun die?”

“Wasn’t the Demigod just recently messaging that Thousand Eyes Beast Emperor was likely killed by Spirit Gun?” Tavares couldn’t believe his eyes.

In his heart, even the Three Great Beast Emperors together might not be able to kill Li Yuan.

Jiang Zai was equally breathless, he knew full well the significance of Spirit Gun… If Spirit Gun had fallen and the other two Beast Emperors were still alive, it likely meant that Bright Moon Base couldn’t be held in the future.

Of the three.

Luo Chan was the most shocked, “Li Yuan is dead?”

She alone knew that Spirit Gun was Li Yuan.

…

Moments later, this explosive news had already been transmitted back to the highest echelons of the Seven Star Civilization by Tavares and the others.
