Chapter 569: Chapter 324: The Truth of Ten Thousand Years Ago! Holy Blood Heavenly Serpent (Last Day for Monthly Votes)_3
 

Eight Star Veins, in the Divine Realm, probably belong to legend even for ordinary divinities… but not for Heavenly Divines.

Or rather, without the foundation of the Eight Star Veins, it would be difficult to become a Heavenly Divine.

Every Heavenly Divine is an unparalleled genius born through the long eras of the Divine Realm.

“You have tremendous potential, having already formed Six Star Pulse and each Star Meridian is exceptionally strong. Awakening the Seven Star Veins is almost a certainty, and there is hope for achieving Eight Star Veins.”

“Your talent for Enlightenment is also extremely high, Earth and Wind combining with each other… In the future, you will have a complete hope of touching the Space Law.” Qiu Bingzun looked at Li Yuan, “To encounter such a genius as you in the Mortal Domain is a blessing from the heavens, a chance that comes once in a blue moon; I dare not ask for more.”

“Another hundred thousand years might pass without meeting someone with potential greater than yours… Therefore, I have already made my decision.” Qiu Bingzun said, “You will carry out the second plan.”

Li Yuan sighed inwardly. The Heavenly Serpent Divine truly valued him highly!

“Esteemed One, what is this so-called second plan?” Li Yuan asked, “What do I need to do?”

“Do you know why I brought the Civilization Mothership?” Qiu Bingzun sighed, as if unrelated to Li Yuan’s question.

Li Yuan could not help but shake his head.

“The Heavenly Serpent Clan was obliterated in a great war, with a large number of our people scattered!” The Black Snake Phantom gritted its teeth, “This Civilization Mothership is an escape vessel, always on the run. The Esteemed One, is one of the very few divinities in our clan who escaped. We venture into the Burial Immortal Ancient Land also because the Esteemed One seeks to break through to Heavenly Divine status and one day reconstruct our Heavenly Serpent Clan.”

Li Yuan was astonished.

So, the Heavenly Serpent Clan had already been annihilated. No wonder they brought the Civilization Mothership… Normally, powerful beings roaming alone do not bring so many weaker clan members with them.

It would not only hinder themselves but also these clan members.

It turned out there was no other choice.

“The first plan is for me to maximize my gains in the Burial Immortal Ancient Land, becoming a Heavenly Divine,” Qiu Bingzun said softly.

“The second plan is for you.” Qiu Bingzun’s gaze fell on Li Yuan with reverence, “To carry our clan’s last ‘Holy Blood Heavenly Serpent’ into the Burial Immortal Ancient Domain, and ultimately help it become a Heavenly Divine, rebuilding our Heavenly Serpent Clan.”

“Holy Blood Heavenly Serpent?” Li Yuan was both shocked and puzzled, “What’s the difference with the pure-blooded Heaven Snake?”

“The Heavenly Serpent Bloodline, if only containing a portion, depending on the bloodline concentration, will have the hope to become Second Rank, Third Rank, or even Fourth Rank,” Qiu Bingzun said. “While a pure-blooded Heaven Snake, upon reaching maturity, will directly become a Fifth Rank Pseudo-God.”

Li Yuan nodded understandably.

It was the same with the True Phoenix Clan. Lin Lanyue’s ancestor, the ‘Demigod of Flame City,’ quickly achieved the Demigod status through bloodline.

“Beyond the pure-blooded Heaven Snake, there is one even more powerful bloodline,” Qiu Bingzun continued slowly. “Named ‘Holy Blood Heavenly Serpent,’ it is considered alongside the ‘Five-Clawed Metal Dragon’ of the Dragon Clan, as one of the most powerful bloodlines amongst all clans in the Divine Realm… Carrying this type of bloodline, as soon as one is born, so long as they reach adulthood, they will become a peak True God in the future!! And even have a slight hope of becoming a Heavenly Divine.”

“And on this Civilization Mothership, we carry an egg of the ‘Holy Blood Heavenly Serpent,’ which the clan elders entrusted to me when we fled from the Heavenly Serpent Temple.” Qiu Bingzun spoke in a grave tone, “At that time, all the Heavenly Divines of our clan were being watched by the enemy, and they couldn’t even escape if they wanted to. We True Gods… actually had a certain chance of escaping.”

“This is a great hope for the rise of our Heavenly Serpent Clan.”

Li Yuan listened, dumbfounded.

In the Mortal Domain, how many civilizations rise and fall without ever giving birth to a True God.

But this so-called ‘Holy Blood Heavenly Serpent’ will naturally grow into a peak True God in the future? That’s just too outrageous.

“Esteemed One.”

“If that’s the case, wouldn’t simply hatching the Holy Blood Heavenly Serpent Egg do?” Li Yuan couldn’t help but say.

If it hatched early, in ten thousand years, it would surely have matured and reached its peak.

“Not possible.”

“It is an outsider, and even if it hatches in this world, it will not receive the recognition of the native Dimensional Domain. Thus, it will still be suppressed and rejected, making it very difficult to grow up steadily in this Dimensional Domain,” Qiu Bingzun shook his head.

“Moreover, it will be rejected when entering the Burial Immortal Ancient Domain,” Qiu Bingzun said.

“Rejected?” Li Yuan was taken aback.

“The Burial Immortal Ancient Domain contains a powerful origin, and since it became progressively stabilized over its lengthy existence, it indicates it has merged with the origin of this Dimensional Domain,” the Black Snake Phantom explained. “For someone like you, native to this Dimensional Domain, even if you grow to be a Heavenly Divine, you’ll only be suppressed and not rejected from entering… You’re like a child nurtured by the origin.”

“But for outsiders, if they go against certain rules of the world’s operation, they might even be subdued or killed.”

“Especially Heavenly Divines, who can’t even enter it at all,” the Black Snake Phantom added.

Li Yuan suddenly understood.

Qiu Bingzun hoped to transform this ‘Holy Blood Heavenly Serpent Egg’ into ‘native life’?

Thus, the Holy Blood Heavenly Serpent’s chances of seizing treasures in the Burial Immortal Ancient Domain would greatly increase.

The likelihood of becoming a Heavenly Divine would probably also substantially increase.

“Esteemed One, what would you have me do?” Li Yuan asked.

“Become the incubating carrier for this ‘Holy Blood Heavenly Serpent Egg,'” Qiu Bingzun spoke somberly, “and form a ‘Bloodline Pact’ with it. That way, once it hatches, it would be like your half-child.”

“It will also become equivalent to your ‘Contracted Spirit Beast.’

“In the future, once it has grown to its peak, it will undoubtedly rely on you immensely, aiding you in your adventures in the Divine Realm.”

“I have also left many gifts for you to help you grow faster,” Qiu Bingzun said.

Li Yuan was astonished.

He was to have the unborn Holy Blood Heavenly Serpent become his Spirit Beast?

And an inheritance from Qiu Bingzun?

It all seemed beneficial!

“What will you get out of this?” Li Yuan couldn’t help asking.

There’s no such thing as a one-sided favor.

“You will nurture it because you are a native life form, and it will receive nourishment from your soul and bloodline, gaining recognition from the Dimensional Domain’s origin,” Qiu Bingzun explained as he looked at Li Yuan. “As such, when you two join forces to venture into the Burial Immortal Ancient Domain in the future, the success rate will greatly increase with mutual cooperation.”

Li Yuan didn’t respond; if that was the only reason, it was far from sufficient.

“Furthermore.”

“I need you to make two Law oaths,” Qiu Bingzun said. “First, you must do your utmost to protect it during its growth and help it become a ‘Heavenly Divine.’ Of course, it is destined to reach the True God Peak, but you mainly need to protect it from being hunted down by the powers of the Divine Realm.”

“After all, while the Heavenly Serpent Clan was obliterated, their enemies haven’t disappeared… It’s been only ten thousand years, they are definitely still pursuing the Heavenly Serpent Clan.”

“Second, once it becomes a Heavenly Divine in the future, you must help it rebuild the Heavenly Serpent Clan.”

Li Yuan nodded slightly.

It seemed that everything Qiu Bingzun did was for the rebirth of the Heavenly Serpent Clan. That must be Qiu Bingzun’s obsession.

“I have told you everything.”

“Choose!”

“If you agree, the many Inheritance Treasures I have prepared will satisfy you,” Qiu Bingzun said as he looked at Li Yuan. “If you refuse, I will send you away.”

The spacious hall became completely quiet.

Qiu Bingzun, and the Black Snake Phantom waited for Li Yuan’s response.

“To agree, or not to agree?” Li Yuan thought to himself. It seemed all to his benefit to agree now.

The real disadvantage lies in the future!

In the future, if he went to the Divine Realm, then the vast power that had destroyed the Heavenly Serpent Clan would definitely pursue him with all their might… It was akin to making a powerful enemy in advance.

According to Qiu Bingzun, not even the Heavenly Divines of the Heavenly Serpent Clan could withstand them? How terrifying must the enemies’ power be?

Li Yuan still aspired to the Divine Realm.

But!

Good or bad, did he really have a choice? If he refused, Li Yuan didn’t believe that Qiu Bingzun would let him leave.

He had taken the Spirit of the Heavenly Wind, he knew the secret… to say he was unwilling and wanted to leave now? He might as well be ready to hit the road.

Li Yuan also vaguely understood why Qiu Bingzun kept reminding him about making a choice…

Sometimes, once a decision is made, you actually have no choice thereafter.

Moreover, this trade wasn’t necessarily wrong.

No matter how powerful the enemies of the Heavenly Serpent Clan were, they were still in the Divine Realm. It would only be possible for them to threaten him once he was in the Divine Realm.

“I am willing,” Li Yuan said.

“Good.” A smile appeared on Qiu Bingzun’s face. “Let’s first make the two Law oaths then.”

Hu~

With a wave of his hand, Qiu Bingzun conjured a light screen projection that displayed the words of the oath.

Li Yuan confirmed it was correct and quickly made the Law oaths.

It felt the same as before, with no sensation.

“Next, it’s time to begin nurturing the ‘Holy Blood Heavenly Serpent.’ The whole process should last about three months,” Qiu Bingzun said. “During this period, it will be hard for you to be distracted, and the process may be somewhat arduous, but I hope you can endure it.”

“Three months?” Li Yuan was slightly surprised. “That long.”

“It’s rather brief,” the Black Snake Phantom said with a laugh. “That’s considering everything has already been prepared in advance.”

“Fine.”

“However, before we start, I hope to send a message back first,” Li Yuan said in a low voice. “Being gone for such a long time, I’m afraid the high echelons of my home civilization will think something has happened to me, and they’ll worry too much.”
