High-Level Martial Era - Chapter 629

Chapter 629: Chapter 349: Points Reward! Fame Spreads Across the Dimensional Domain_2
 

Mighty ones die from overconfidence? Li Yuan pondered that saying in his heart.

“Quickly become stronger.”

“Without attaining the Flying Heaven Level, don’t take any more risks. The enemies you’re about to face present too great a threat to you.”

“Wait until you reach the Flying Heaven Level, when you’re stronger, then you can face most of the storms in the Mortal Domain without fear.” Gu You said, “By that time, if you pass through the third trial left by your father, I shall also be able to take out other Secret Treasures according to the rules he left behind.”

“Secret Treasures? Like that Black Crystal Stone?” Li Yuan asked curiously.

“Roughly, but the higher the level of the trial, the stronger the might of the Secret Treasures.”

“Even Semi-Divine Peak Experts can be killed.” Gu You said, “Such Secret Treasures are generally only crafted by True Gods, so they’re very rare in your Mortal Domain… but the more powerful the Secret Treasure, the more demanding it is for the user; with your current level of strength, you’re unable to wield their true might.”

“It wasn’t easy for our father to craft those Secret Treasures either. Therefore, unless you meet the requirements, it’s impossible to bestow them to you.”

Li Yuan nodded slightly.

Just like a child operating some machinery, if they lack the strength, they might end up injuring themselves.

Moreover, while Gu You held considerable autonomy, he also trusted himself.

But, ultimately, he must adhere to the basic commands of the Ancient Torch Divine.

Without Ascending to Godhood, without passing through the fifth trial, it was impossible to perfectly control the Ancient Divine Palace.

“Flying Heaven Level?” Li Yuan mused silently, “I hope this third Spiritual Guidance doesn’t disappoint me.”

…

Inside the Heavenly Snake Hall,

“Brother, the situation just now wasn’t as urgent as you thought.” Liu Bing said with a smile, looking at Li Yuan’s Divine Sense incarnation, “In fact, when you deployed that Secret Treasure earlier, I calculated I could escape safely, hence I didn’t use mine.”

“You have a similar Secret Treasure?” Li Yuan was first startled, then shook his head and chuckled, “Right, Elder Qiu must’ve left some behind.”

When it comes to strength and wealth,

Elder Qiu Bingzun is even stronger than the Ancient Torch Divine… When it comes to treasure accumulation, Liu Bing would only have more than him.

“It’s just that, I currently only have two such Secret Treasures.”

“Before I become a True God, Elder Qiu won’t give me more treasures,” Liu Bing said, looking at Li Yuan, “Each of these two great Secret Treasures, once deployed, has boundless might. Just using them to kill the weakest Semi-Divine would be too wasteful.”

Liu Bing shook her head and said, “These are for preserving life… Even if killing this Semi-Divine, it wouldn’t help us much, so I didn’t use them.”

“Hmm,” Li Yuan nodded slightly.

Each person’s perspective is different.

For Liu Bing, even if the Seven Star Civilization were destroyed, as long as the two of them were safe, she probably wouldn’t care… She would only use the Secret Treasures if it threatened her or her own life.

Therefore, Liu Bing not revealing her trump card while being pursued by that Alien Race Semi-Divine was quite normal.

“Li Yuan,” a deep voice sounded, and whoosh~ beams of light converged to form the Phantom of Qiu Bingzun.

“Elder,” Li Yuan greeted.

“This battle, you truly exposed Liu Bing’s existence,” Qiu Bingzun looked at Li Yuan, “I’ve already had Liu Bing undergo a certain disguise; they won’t recognize her as the Holy Blood Heavenly Serpent, but her strength can’t be hidden.”

“I hope you don’t disappoint me,” Qiu Bingzun said, looking at Li Yuan, with an implicit meaning.

Li Yuan’s heart grew tense, “You can count on me, Elder.”

…

Li Yuan, Gu You, and Liu Bing, their exchange was extremely rapid.

When their conversation ended, Li Yuan and Bai Shan Semi-Divine returned to the Fourth Rank Battleship in the void.

“Alliance Hierarch,”

“Elder Lant,”

“San Ye Semi-Divine,” Li Yuan immediately saw the three Phantoms inside the battleship and consecutively greeted them.

“Here you are,” San Ye Semi-Divine revealed a smile.

“I’m glad you’re back safely,” Lant Semi-Divine said with a smile.

“Li Yuan, this was my oversight,” Dongfang Ji’s avatar looked at Li Yuan and sighed, “I landed you in a huge crisis; had your strength not been sufficient, I fear it would’ve weighed on my conscience for life.”

“Alliance Hierarch, this is not your fault,” Li Yuan shook his head repeatedly, “For one, sweeping the Second Level Star Realm was my own idea… And secondly, this Alien Race Semi-Divine never leaked any secrets, who could have anticipated it?”

“Indeed, I didn’t see it coming. Even with the high status of Myriad Demons Civilization’s hidden forces, we didn’t know in advance about this,” Dongfang Ji shook his head, “Looks like, it must be a scheme planned by a Deity of Myriad Demons Civilization.”

“Only, I wonder, which one of the three Deities acted,” Dongfang Ji said.

“Three Deities?” Li Yuan, San Ye Semi-Divine, and Bai Shan Semi-Divine were all taken aback.

From what they could access in the civilization database, Myriad Demons Civilization had always been led by two Deities — East Demon Deity and Bei Yue Deity.

When did the third one appear?

“Could it be Qiong Jin Deity?” Bai Shan Semi-Divine said in shock, “Wasn’t he said to have perished long ago?”

“It’s him, he didn’t die,” Dongfang Ji said.

“Qiong Jin Deity?” Li Yuan became even more puzzled.

“Li Yuan, Myriad Demons Civilization has a history stretching over more than a hundred thousand years. Over such a long span of time, it has birthed one True God, whose legacy is the greatest foundation of Myriad Demons Civilization. And the Pseudo-Gods that Myriad Demons Civilization has produced are numerous, amounting to dozens,” Bai Shan Semi-Divine explained, “Pseudo-Gods live five thousand years; most Pseudo-Gods have already perished… East Demon Deity and Bei Yue Deity are both quite young, neither having lived past two thousand years.”

“Bei Yue Deity became a Pseudo-God just a few hundred years ago.”

“While Qiong Jin Deity is somewhat older, tallying his age, it should exceed four thousand years… The Mortal Domain’s Starry Sky also has numerous opportunities and treasures worth challenging by Deities… After the emergence of the Burial Immortal Ancient Domain, even more Deities from the Dimensional Domain attempted their luck, and Deities also fight over treasures and hold grudges against one another.”

“In short, very few Deities live peacefully until the end of their life span,” Bai Shan Semi-Divine said.

Li Yuan couldn’t help but nod in understanding.
