Chapter 498: North Hill Mortal Domain, Mo River Star Domain

Chapter 498: North Hill Mortal Domain, Mo River Star Domain

"What is your wish?"

"Enough! Li Yuan, you've done enough for me, old man." The Blazing Wind Demigod shook his head and sighed, "I never imagined that I would live to see the day of the Demon Civilization's destruction. Even the Eastern Demon, Male Divine Spirit, and his followers were captured and forever knelt in submission."

"The vengeance for our civilization will be fulfilled by my disciples. I am already content with that, and you have helped me rebuild our civilization."

"If I were to ask for anything more, it would be wrong of me." The Blazing Wind Demigod shook his head.

Li Yuan listened silently.

The surrounding Blazing Wind tribe members also listened, their hearts growing heavier with sorrow.

The tragic memories of their tribe's past resurfaced in the minds of many, including some powerful Source Warriors who had lived through that era.

"Teacher," Li Yuan sighed softly.

"In my youth, I was the top genius of my homeland's civilization. I became a Source Warrior early on and soared as a Sky Soarer Warrior, basking in glory." The Blazing Wind Demigod's eyes held a hint of reminiscence, "Later, I became a Demigod, met the woman I loved, and had a daughter. That was true happiness."

As one nears death, memories of their entire life gradually surface.

The Blazing Wind Demigod had lived for nearly a thousand years, experiencing countless trials. He had once shone brilliantly, illuminating an entire civilization, but he had also known despair.

"At that time, I was also filled with ambition, aiming to break through to the Void Deity realm." The Blazing Wind Demigod sighed, "But as I advanced to the Demigod realm, the path of the Law became increasingly challenging. Only then did I realize the difficulties and hardships of achieving the Demigod realm. After hundreds of years, I finally reached the peak of the Demigod realm, becoming the strongest in our civilization. But beyond that, I saw no hope."

Li Yuan sighed softly in his heart.

The Blazing Wind Demigod's homeland, compared to the Seven Star Civilization, had only one Life Planet, and throughout its history, no Divine Spirit had ever been born... Its foundation was too shallow, and it likely had no ancient heritage.

In such an environment, the hope of cultivating to become a Divine Spirit was slim.

Achieving the Void Deity realm was incredibly challenging for countless cultivators.

"The cultivation path becomes more difficult the further you progress." The Blazing Wind Demigod said, "Later, my homeland's civilization was occupied and exterminated, but I managed to escape... With nothing holding me back, I ventured into the Ancient God Kingdom to seek revenge..."

"After countless trials and another few hundred years, I finally reached the limit of the Demigod realm before my lifespan's end." The Blazing Wind Demigod's face was filled with regret, but also a hint of relief.

Not achieving the Divine Spirit realm, how could one not feel regret? But in this life, the Blazing Wind Demigod felt he had done his best.

"Li Yuan, you will go to the Divine Realm, won't you?" The Blazing Wind Demigod asked.

"I will go there in the future." Li Yuan did not hide his intentions.

"The Divine Realm, I've always imagined it to be a magnificent and awe-inspiring world." The Blazing Wind Demigod's eyes held a glimmer of longing, "Unfortunately, I no longer have that hope."

"You just asked if I had any other wishes." The Blazing Wind Demigod smiled, "If I must have a wish, it would be for you to carry my blessings and explore the Divine Realm."

"Go and witness the splendor of the Divine Realm." The Blazing Wind Demigod instructed.

"Alright," Li Yuan agreed, feeling a sense of heaviness in his heart.

"Li Chen." The Blazing Wind Demigod suddenly spoke.

"Elder." A middle-aged man stepped forward, his eyes moist with unshed tears, suppressing the sorrow in his heart.

He was a Sky Soarer Warrior and the current top-tier powerhouse of the Blazing Wind tribe.

"After my death," the Blazing Wind Demigod said softly, "scatter my ashes into the ocean of this planet. Let me truly merge with my homeland's civilization and witness its gradual reconstruction with my own eyes."

"Yes, Elder," the middle-aged man nodded heavily.

"It's time to go, it's time to go. I'm so tired." The Blazing Wind Demigod revealed a weary smile.

His soul's energy was gradually dissipating.

"Before I die, having you all by my side is my greatest contentment." The Blazing Wind Demigod smiled.

Gradually, the Blazing Wind Demigod's voice trailed off. His eyes dimmed, and his hands lost their smoothness, like lifeless, dry wood. Eventually, he closed his eyes completely.

His life force dissipated entirely.

On his face was a satisfied smile.

The middle-aged man named Li Chen knelt on the ground, his throat unable to produce much sound, but his face was already drenched in tears.

Li Yuan watched as the Blazing Wind Demigod passed away, feeling a sense of dizziness. It was as if he had returned to the night when Teacher Xu Bo had passed away. His heart trembled involuntarily.

Li Yuan slowly knelt and bowed his head one last time to his teacher.

Then, Li Yuan stood up and left the hall with heavy yet determined steps.

"Elder."

"Elder," the surrounding Blazing Wind tribe members finally couldn't hold back their emotions and burst into tears.

They couldn't forget that in their darkest hour, it was the Blazing Wind Demigod who led them to rebuild their homeland and their tribe.

...

Li Yuan stayed in the Blazing Wind Plane for two days, personally witnessing the ashes of the 'Blazing Wind Demigod' scattered by his tribe into the mountains and oceans of their planet.

In the end, he quietly departed.

...

Time passed, and soon after returning to the Flying Star, Li Yuan visited Lie Qing, the True God.

"Are you preparing to go to the Divine Realm?" Lie Qing, the True God, asked.

"Yes," Li Yuan nodded.

"The various threats to our homeland's civilization have been resolved, and there are no other concerns. It's time for me to go to the Divine Realm."

"I've left many safeguards for our civilization, but there are still some areas that need attention. I'll have to trouble you with some matters." Li Yuan said.

"Haha, it's a small matter." Lie Qing, the True God, laughed, "We're allies, so we should help each other."

Whoosh!

Lie Qing, the True God, waved his palm and handed Li Yuan a fiery red crystal, "Inside here is a vast amount of information and messages that I've prepared for you. They are basic knowledge about the Divine Realm."

"You might already know some of it, but mutual confirmation will be better. These materials mainly target the Mo River Star Domain."

"This is the latest intelligence that Nie Chen, the True God, passed on to me recently."

Li Yuan reached out and took the fiery red crystal.

Whoosh!

Lie Qing, the True God, waved his hand again, and a massive light screen appeared before the two of them, filled with a large amount of textual information and accompanying images.

Li Yuan couldn't help but gaze at the images.

"The Divine Realm is vast and boundless. Since the beginning of the universe, the Divine Realm has evolved, and countless lives have flourished, making the entire realm even more fascinating. It has already been over a hundred million years."

"When the Divine Realm was first born, there were nine thousand star realms. Later, as it gradually expanded, the number of star realms increased, and now there are approximately twelve thousand star realms."

"The star realms vary in size, with the smallest having thousands of galaxies and the largest having hundreds of thousands. The distances between different star realms are even more remote..."

Li Yuan looked at the video images, showing a dense map of the universe's star realms.

He was already aware of most of this information, but seeing it again still brought some emotions.

The tens of thousands of star realms only occupied a small portion of the Divine Realm.

Beyond the star realms, outside the countless star realms, was an even more vast 'Darkness,' which made one's heart palpitate.

"Each star realm has its own origin, and under the protection of the Origin's operation, countless lives flourish. However, in the 'Dark Zone of the Universe' outside the star realms, countless 'Star Beast lives' have also been born, and there are many wondrous and perilous places that have given birth to countless treasures and wonders?"

"Each galaxy has a maximum diameter ranging from thousands to tens of thousands of light-years, giving birth to countless planets. But the vast majority are not life planets... The number of life planets in each galaxy ranges from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands."

"The Ink River Star Realm has more than 20,000 galaxies, and the affiliated mortal domains number in the tens of thousands... The maximum diameter of the entire star realm exceeds 50 million light-years..."

"In modern times, the Ink River Star Realm has four medium-ranked god kingdoms, plus the Starlight Divine Court branch, making them the five major powers... The four medium-ranked god kingdoms belong to the Chaos Divine Court, the Ten Thousand Paths Divine Court, the Nine True Divine Court, and the Abyss Divine Court, the four major divine court powers."

"There are also thousands of low-ranked god kingdoms..."

Li Yuan looked at the detailed data about the 'Ink River Star Realm' and couldn't help but feel emotional.

Each star realm was incredibly vast, and countless powerful beings were constantly vying for supremacy.

"The low-ranked god kingdoms in the Divine Realm are usually established by some of the more powerful True Gods, enough to dominate within a galaxy." Li Yuan thought to himself.

"The medium-ranked god kingdoms are established by Sky Gods, and they are the dominant forces in a star realm."

"High-ranked god kingdoms usually occupy numerous star realms and are renowned throughout the Divine Realm..." Li Yuan thought, "However, whether it's low-ranked, medium-ranked, or high-ranked god kingdoms, throughout the long history of the Divine Realm, they are constantly changing, rising, and falling."

"Most of these god kingdoms belong to the various divine court powers."

"In the long history of the Divine Realm, more than ten divine courts have been born. The Chaos Divine Court and the Abyss Divine Court are the two strongest divine court powers in the Divine Realm. The Starlight Divine Court and the Ten Thousand Paths Divine Court follow closely behind, and they seem to be not far behind, all with the potential to compete for the top three." Li Yuan sighed inwardly.

The Divine Courts are the true dominant powers in the Divine Realm. Even the weakest divine court power occupies at least a hundred star realms.

Like the many god kingdom lords, most are core members of a divine court.

Li Yuan continued browsing.

This information mainly focused on the various power distributions within the Ink River Star Realm.

The last part emphasized the Moon Glory God Kingdom and the Great Rock God Kingdom.

"The Moon Glory God Kingdom was established by the Moon Glory Sky God eighteen million years ago and belongs to the Ten Thousand Paths Divine Court. Now, there are three Sky Gods stationed there, and the latest addition is the 'Azure Devil Sky God,' who leads over three thousand galaxy territories and has tens of thousands of True Gods under his command..."

"The Great Rock God Kingdom was established by the Great Rock Sky God ten million years ago and belongs to the Chaos Divine Court. Now, there are two Sky Gods stationed there, leading over two thousand galaxy territories..."

Li Yuan immediately understood.

The Great Rock God Kingdom was a branch of the Chaos Divine Court in the Ink River Star Realm. Even just looking at the territory size, it was clear that the Moon Glory God Kingdom had the advantage in the Ink River Star Realm.

It was evident that within the Ink River Star Realm, the Ten Thousand Paths Divine Court had a greater advantage."

However, among the four medium-ranked god kingdoms, the most powerful was the 'Lotus Devil God Kingdom,' which belonged to the Abyss Divine Court. Just looking at the territorial division on the star realm map, that pitch-black area was awe-inspiring.

Occupying nearly half of the Ink River Star Realm, it had tens of thousands of galaxies within its territory.

"The Lotus Devil God Kingdom, among the medium-ranked god kingdoms of the various star realms, is considered extremely powerful." The nearby Lie Qing True God sighed, "One of the reasons is that the lord of the Lotus Devil God Kingdom, the 'Lotus Devil Sky God,' is a powerful monarch."

A monarch?

Li Yuan was secretly surprised. Only the extremely powerful Sky Gods were qualified to be called Sky God Monarchs or God Lords.

He didn't expect there to be a Sky God Monarch in the Ink River Star Realm.

"Li Yuan."

"Our mortal domain is called the 'North Hill Mortal Domain.'" Lie Qing True God smiled, "It's named after the 'North Hill Sky God' from the history of our mortal domain."

"Has a Sky God been born in our mortal domain?" Li Yuan was startled. This was something he didn't know.

"Yes, one has been born." Lie Qing True God sighed, "But that was over a hundred million years ago."

Li Yuan sighed inwardly. A hundred million years? What an incredibly long time.

"The North Hill Sky God was a Human Sky God, and he once unified the entire mortal domain. As time passed, his civilization has long since fallen apart and is completely buried in the annals of history. But now, many civilizations in the mortal domain are related to him." Lie Qing True God smiled, "Perhaps, like my Lie Qing Civilization, your Seven Star Civilization, if you trace back the bloodline, they are all related to the North Hill Civilization."

"I only learned about this after going to the Divine Realm." Lie Qing True God said.

Li Yuan listened. Nowadays, the mortal domain has little information about the 'North Hill Sky God.'

"From our North Hill Mortal Domain to the Ink River Star Realm, once we pass through the realm passage, we may descend upon any of these four galaxies." Lie Qing True God pointed at the star realm map, "One of them belongs to the Great Rock God Kingdom."

"And the other three galaxies are territories of the Ten Thousand Paths Divine Court."
