High-Level Martial Era - Chapter 820

Chapter 820: Chapter 428: Jue Xing Realm! Two Paths
 

Sha Xi Pseudo-God flew out of the palace first, followed by fifteen Flying Heaven Level and ten Semi-Divine figures one after another.

Li Yuan and Jiang Shan were in the lead.

“Xu Yuan, when you encountered the Divine assassination, Jiang Xuan and I were really sweating for you,” Jiang Shan communicated through psychic means, “It’s fortunate that you were safe in the end.”

“The main reason is that the King’s rescue was timely, secretly dispatching a Pseudo-God for protection,” Li Yuan replied through psychic communication, “Otherwise, how could I alone withstand the assassination of a Pseudo-God?”

This was the truth; even with a Pseudo-God Puppet, it could only delay the inevitable slightly.

“That’s true,” Jiang Shan nodded, “Your Law Comprehension is extremely high, reaching Pseudo-God Level… but your foundation of strength is too weak. If you were to breakthrough to Semi-Divine, your power should rapidly surpass mine, and your self-preservation capabilities would be much stronger, with more means to deal with threats.”

“Origin Power Cultivation is the foundation.”

“Speaking of which, you should have already awakened the Eight Star Veins, right?” Jiang Shan communicated, “Aren’t you breaking through to Semi-Divine?”

“There’s no rush for the moment; I want to stay at Flying Heaven Level a bit longer, awakening my Life Star to its Limit,” Li Yuan spoke vaguely.

Jiang Shan guessed that he had awakened the Eight Star Veins, and Li Yuan did not find it strange.

In fact, according to the information transmitted by Qian Huan Pseudo-God, many major power information networks on the Jue Xing Continent now speculate that he has awakened the Eight Star Veins.

Otherwise, how could he burst forth with Semi-Divine Limit strength?

“That’s right, since you can’t catch up with this Ancestral Realm battle, and you’re still young, it won’t matter if you break through late, ten or twenty years from now, it’s better to solidify your Star Meridian foundation,” Jiang Shan said, “After all, your Soul Will is strong, and your Law Comprehension speed won’t be too slow.”

“By the way, have you found out who is behind the assassination?” Jiang Shan asked curiously.

“Not yet,” Li Yuan shook his head, after the assassination, Jiang Yuan True God only communicated with him that they were investigating.

However, ten days had passed, and there was still no conclusion.

Li Yuan did not have much expectation to begin with; first, the assassin Pseudo-God was clearly a dead soldier, likely having assumed a false identity. With his body destroyed, it was extremely difficult to find out amongst the many Divines on the Jue Xing Continent.

Second, even if they found out, what then? If the other party dared to make a move, they would not fear being discovered. With Li Yuan’s current strength, he didn’t have the capability to kill in retaliation.

In this way, Li Yuan and Jiang Shan continued to exchange psychic messages as they followed in flight.

Before long.

The group of several dozen people had arrived at a northern district of Yuan Country Capital.

There, an astonishingly expansive series of towering tower-like Transmission Arrays were erected… there were no less than eighteen Transmission Arrays.

Seventeen of those Transmission Arrays led to the Royal Capitals of the other core Divine Kingdoms in the East Domain.

The tallest and most imposing Transmission Array, however, led to one of the continent’s Holy Lands for Cultivation—the Jue Xing Ancient City.

It could be said.

The Yuan Country Capital is a core locus of the East Domain, where a large number of Flying Heaven Semi-Divine beings and even Divines teleport daily from other Divine Kingdoms to the Yuan Country Capital.

There was a constant stream of arrivals and departures.

Just the fees collected for teleportation were astonishing indeed.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Above the eighteen Transmission Arrays, large numbers of soldiers clothed in Black Armor patrolled… they were the Black Abyss Guard, one of the mightiest military forces of Yuan Country.

Formal members of the Black Abyss Guard were at least at Semi-Divine Middle Rank, and those guarding here amounted to over a thousand… furthermore, there were many Divines secretly guarding the Transmission Arrays.

“Transmission Arrays?” A hint of curiosity flitted through Li Yuan’s eyes.

Space Transmission Arrays could only be laid down by Heavenly Divines with extreme comprehension of Space Law.

Li Yuan had read about them before, but this was the first time he was seeing one in person.

They followed Sha Xi Pseudo-God directly towards the deep end where the towering Transmission Array was located.

“Who are these people?”

“There was also a team before this.”

“They are going to ride the Ancient City Transmission Array?” Many Black Abyss Guards watched curiously at this scene.

Teleportation between different Divine Kingdoms was frequent.

But the Transmission Array leading to Jue Xing Ancient City was activated far less often, sometimes not even once a day.

Yet in recent days, there had been quite a few teams like this.

“Stupid!”

“Are you new here? The one in Silver Armor is Jiang Shan, and the other in black clothes is Xu Yuan,” another of the Black Abyss Guard glanced over, “Have some discernment.”

“They’re likely going to Jue Xing Ancient City for special training and cultivation.”

“The Jue Xing Ancient City is comprised of Divines, isn’t it?”

Some more well-informed Black Abyss Guards mentioned, “Reportedly, the top ten Flying Heaven Semi-Divine geniuses from Divine Fire Palace are qualified to go to Jue Xing Ancient City.”

“These days, it’s not just our Divine Kingdom, but some top talents from other weaker Divine Kingdoms have also been sending teams to our Yuan Country Capital, taking Transmission Arrays to the Jue Xing Ancient City.”

“Top ten in Divine Fire Palace?”

“What freaks of nature.”

“The ones in the top ten of the Semi-Divine List likely boast power comparably to Pseudo-Gods,” these Black Abyss Guards muttered to themselves.

In terms of power and status, they were superior to many Semi-Divines outside… but compared to the Divine Fire Palace’s geniuses, they were nothing.

At that moment.

Sha Xi Pseudo-God had led Li Yuan and the others into the Space Transmission Array.

Soon the Transmission Array flashed with a sky-piercing radiance.

Whoosh!

The inside of the Transmission Array became empty, clearly indicating that Li Yuan and the others had reached a distant land.

…

The Jue Xing Ancient City is the true core of Jue Xing Continent, ranked number one among the Three Great Starry Sky Ancient Cities, gathering the continent’s most top-notch powerhouses, the largest number of treasures, and the best external Cultivation environments.

Even though Yuan Country was already formidable, with thousands of Divines year-round, it was still far from comparable to Jue Xing Ancient City.

The most important point.

Jue Xing Ancient City is a Holy Land for Cultivation… those who can come here are either talented individuals or powerhouses.
