Chapter 407: Law Mirror
Awakening the Eight-Star Vein? Li Yuan muttered to himself, already possessing the eight-star vein.
But the black-robed elder's words were not entirely accurate, which didn't surprise Li Yuan.
The star vein was subtle, making it extremely difficult to detect with external means, and even judging by life aura was often not precise.
Especially after Li Yuan's strength increased, if a True Deity expert carefully examined his body, they would surely be able to make a judgment, but just by appearance? Others didn't have the same advantage as Li Yuan, with a spiritual divine palace as a means of detection.
"Five hundred years is too long. I've only been cultivating for a few decades." Li Yuan shook his head and smiled.
This was said intentionally, but it was also Li Yuan's true feelings.
Five hundred years? Li Yuan couldn't afford to wait that long.
If he returned after such a long time, the Seven-Star Civilization might have already undergone drastic changes, and many close friends and relatives might have passed away.
"Haha, there's no rush. Anyway, it's unlikely that you'll make it this time." The black-robed elder laughed, "Demi-God is the last realm before becoming a deity, and it's also a crucial realm... Take your time and think about it. After a hundred years, your ideas may change."
"Becoming a deity after several hundred years doesn't hold much significance."
"The Ancestral World Seal is a rare opportunity for the strong in the Star Perception Continent."
The black-robed elder thought Li Yuan was too young and only at the Flying Heaven Rank, having not yet encountered some of the super-powerful beings on the Star Perception Continent, and thus didn't understand the significance of the Ancestral World Seal.
He would naturally come to understand in the future.
But he didn't know that if Li Yuan were a native life form on the Star Perception Continent, he might be willing to wait. Unfortunately, he was just an outsider.
At this moment, Li Yuan had made up his mind, "I must do my best and find a way to participate in the Ancestral Realm Battle twelve years from now, regardless of success or failure, I will give it my all."
No matter how difficult!
Was it difficult when he first awakened the second-rank eight-star vein? Li Yuan was not one to give up easily.
He had to give it his all.
..."Senior, why would a Sky Divine Artifact apprenticed disciple have such a requirement?" Li Yuan asked in confusion.
"The master loves fame." The black-robed elder chuckled, "According to the master's wishes, the more benefits received, the greater the cause and effect... For direct disciples and inner disciples, the requirements are quite harsh, and they must fulfill some of the master's last wishes."
"For apprenticed disciples, there's no need for additional requirements. After all, they receive very little... If an apprenticed disciple doesn't amount to much, then so be it."
"If you can become a truly outstanding figure, the master also hopes that the world will know that you are his apprenticed disciple, so he requires you to reveal your identity." The black-robed elder explained.
Li Yuan couldn't help but smile wryly.
This Sky Divine Artifact was so obsessed with fame that even after death, he still wanted to make a name for himself.
What a peculiar person.
No wonder the black-robed elder in front of him also acted peculiarly, as a master must have a servant.
"I know your master has a formidable enemy, so his heritage site is very secretive, and he doesn't require any disciple to reveal themselves directly." The black-robed elder explained, "But these two conditions are exceptions."
"If you become a Sky Divine Artifact, you naturally won't fear your master's enemy, and even the Star City will respect you."
"If you can obtain the Ancestral World Seal as a Demi-God, you will likely become a True Deity peak power in the future as long as you don't perish."
"If you're willing, you can fully join the core of the 'Immortal Burial Ancient Domain', and you're just one of the master's apprenticed disciples... The master's enemy shouldn't come after you." The black-robed elder said.
Li Yuan nodded slightly.
According to the rules of the divine realm, apprenticed disciples are essentially 'followers', and inner disciples are usually considered part of the inner circle.
In the divine realm, many Sky Divine Artifacts engage in life-and-death battles, and when one side perishes, it usually doesn't affect the apprenticed disciples.
Unless there's a significant threat, even inner disciples aren't deliberately targeted.
Super-powerful beings have their own pride.
But no matter how you look at it, there's always some risk.
If this Sky Divine Artifact's formidable enemy is one who never forgets a slight, then it's a big problem.
"Senior, if I become a Sky Divine Artifact apprenticed disciple, what can I get?" Li Yuan asked directly.
Whether the risk is significant or not also depends on the rewards.
"Such hesitation, it seems you're determined to obtain the Ancestral World Seal." The black-robed elder smiled, "The previous dozen or so apprenticed disciples didn't hesitate much."
Li Yuan nodded involuntarily.
Most likely, even a Flying Heaven Realm or a Demi-God wouldn't hesitate and would directly agree, as obtaining the Ancestral World Seal is challenging.
"According to the master's command, all apprenticed disciples will receive a gift of twenty thousand divine crystals." The black-robed elder said.
Twenty thousand divine crystals?
Li Yuan thought to himself that this was equivalent to the entire worth of many low-level Void Deities, but for a Sky Divine Artifact nearing the end of his life who specifically left behind a heritage, it was too little.
For example, how many treasures did the Ancient Torch True Deity leave for his direct disciples? Just one Ancient Deity Palace was priceless.
"The second gift depends on the strength of the apprenticed disciple, as apprenticed disciples vary in strength, and the gifts naturally can't be exactly the same." The black-robed elder smiled, "For some exceptional apprenticed disciples, better gifts must be prepared. Like you, in terms of strength and potential, you surpass direct disciples and inner disciples at the Flying Heaven Rank... You qualify to obtain one of the top three treasures from the 'Apprenticed Disciple Treasury', choosing one from among them."
"What are the top three treasures?" Li Yuan was curious.
"Two of the top three are True Deity Artifacts, carefully crafted by the master himself, and can be considered True Deity Artifacts... After all, the master also gave True Deity Artifacts to his direct disciples." The black-robed elder explained, "The other treasure is the Law Mirror."
The Law Mirror? Li Yuan's eyes flashed with curiosity.
What is it?
"You can consider agreeing." Gu You's voice suddenly sounded in Li Yuan's mind, with a hint of excitement, "I know about the Law Mirror. A Sky Divine Artifact on the verge of sitting in meditation would definitely leave behind such an important item, but I didn't expect that even an apprenticed disciple would have a chance to obtain it."
"Sister, what is the Law Mirror?" Li Yuan asked hurriedly.
"Do you remember the three main methods I told you about that can greatly enhance your understanding of the Laws?" Gu You transmitted her voice.
"I do," Li Yuan replied, "First is to increase one's compatibility, such as cultivating auxiliary ultimate Stellar Techniques like 'Celestial Wind Star Vein True Interpretation' or using Celestial Wind Spirits to transform one's body. These are permanent methods."
"Second, is to obtain some auxiliary Enlightenment Treasures, such as the 'Ten Thousand Phenomena Star Map'."
"Third, is to find Enlightenment oddities, like the legendary Enlightenment Leaf." Li Yuan quickly added.
"Yes."
"This Law Mirror is one such Enlightenment oddity." Gu You explained, "Law Mirrors are extremely rare, even in the Divine Realm. Many direct disciples of Sky Deities may not be able to obtain one."
Li Yuan was shocked.
Even direct disciples of Sky Deities might not be able to obtain it? How precious is it?
"Because it is produced from the souls of deceased Sky Deities." Gu You said, "Powerful Sky Deities must thoroughly comprehend a path and understand the Space Law... This allows their souls to almost merge with the origin of the universe's Great Dao, making their souls extremely unique."
"Right before their demise."
"If a Sky Deity wishes, they can strip away their own Law comprehension and refine it into a Law Mirror or a Law River. The Law River is even more mystical."
"A Law Mirror, usually a Sky Deity's soul can refine more than one mirror. Once used, it illuminates the cultivator's heart, pointing directly to the origin of the Laws... It is definitely a great blessing." Gu You transmitted her voice, "The treasure left behind by my father is beyond your imagination. Therefore, for True Artifacts... even if it's a top-grade True Artifact, you don't need to care too much."
"Anyway, a top-grade True Artifact can only be used when you become a Divine Being. Once you reach Godhood, you might even advance to True Deity in one go. It won't be difficult to obtain a True Artifact then."
"But Law Mirrors are extremely rare, and they are also legendary Enlightenment oddities in the Divine Realm." Gu You said solemnly.
Li Yuan understood.
He couldn't help but think of the Void God Elixir, which was made from the souls of powerful Void Deities.
However, Law Mirrors and Law Rivers were only refined from the Law comprehension within a Sky Deity's soul right before their death... Behind this was the life of a Sky Deity.
No wonder some direct disciples of Sky Deities couldn't obtain it.
"For living Sky Deities, unless you go and take it, where else would it come from?" Li Yuan thought, "Only deceased Sky Deities might have left one behind."
Such Enlightenment oddities, this mysterious Sky Deity, would have left behind more than one before their death, but not many.
"I'll do it!"
"Enemies of Sky Deities? If I complete the Purple Robe Task, I'll leave the Star Perception Continent." Li Yuan thought, "By then, even if other Sky Deities on the Star Perception Continent want to kill me, they probably won't be able to find me."
Li Yuan had already weighed the pros and cons.
With only twelve years left, he must seize every opportunity. Once he leaves the Abyss Demon Blood Cavern... as an outsider, even with high talent, he might not be recognized by other powerful Sky Deities on the Star Perception Continent.
Moreover, Li Yuan estimated that there weren't many living Sky Deities on the Star Perception Continent.
In such a short time, it would be extremely difficult to find a greater opportunity.
This Black Robed Elder, just with his spatial movement ability, could easily kill Li Yuan. There was no need to deceive him.
"Seize every opportunity and become a Purple Robe member." Li Yuan thought, "From the traces of the Headmaster and the Eastern Alliance Lord, the opportunities hidden in the Immortal Burial Ancient Domain are even greater than those for direct disciples."
Thinking of this, Li Yuan said, "Senior, I'm willing to become a Sky Deity's Apprenticed Disciple."
"Haha, good. That's a wise choice." The Black Robed Elder smiled, "Rest assured, you'll be glad you made this choice today. Some things, due to special reasons, I can't tell you about, but you'll understand soon."
"Your name is Xu Yuan, right?"
"Yes." Li Yuan nodded.
"Xu Yuan, follow me." The Black Robed Elder turned around and flew towards another passage in the Great Hall.
"Senior, what about them?" Li Yuan couldn't help but point at the skeletons on the ground.
"These people barely passed the outer trial, but they still didn't meet the requirements." The Black Robed Elder shook his head and sighed, "In the end, they can only die here. This is the master's order, and I can't disobey."
"The 'Abyss Demon Blood Cavern' you experienced is not the actual outer trial of the Heritage Site."
"Those Beasts were all cultivated by another True Deity, specifically for slaughter. They are a cover for the Heritage Site."
Li Yuan nodded.
This was a point he had been confused about before. The Demi-God level Beasts, the Blood Demon siege... all these were much more dangerous than what he encountered in the passage.
"That involves some other secrets."
"You'll find out about it eventually." The Black Robed Elder shook his head, "When the Heritage Site was being transformed, most of its treasures had already been taken away. I didn't pay much attention."
"Unless it's a powerful Trialist, one with the strength of a Flying Heaven Rank Demi-God, who has the potential to become the master's Apprenticed Disciple, then I'll teleport them in."
"You..."
"I also wanted to see your strength limit, so I didn't intervene." The Black Robed Elder said, "I didn't expect you to be able to kill even a Demi-God Peak level Beast. You've exceeded my expectations."
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The Black Robed Elder and Li Yuan flew straight into the passage.
