Chapter 439: Chapter 273: The Oldest Demigod
“Law Will? Is achieving this step very difficult?” A deep voice echoed amid the howling winds and raging waves.
The burlap-clad middle-aged man was at a loss for words.
But when he thought of the other party's terrifying battle record, he came to terms with it.
For other demigods, reaching this step is indeed difficult, almost impossible in some sense.
But the other party is Dongfang Ji, then anything is possible.
“Given your personality, to reveal a bit and hide three, if you dare to openly converge Law Will in front of me, I can no longer gauge your true strength,” the burlap-clad middle-aged man said with a slight shake of his head, “If one day you suddenly appear in front of me, already having formed a Divine Shadow, I wouldn't be surprised.”
“To become a divine being has no meaning for me,” the deep voice said indifferently.
“Indeed,” the burlap-clad middle-aged man nodded lightly, “With your peerless talent, your ultimate goal must be to break through the Ninth Mountain world. Among the many demigods I know of in various civilizations, if anyone has hope, it's probably only you.”
“Speak, Dongfang, you haven't sought me out in decades, what brings you here?” the burlap-clad middle-aged man said slowly.
“Help me guide a junior,” the deep voice said, “A Prime Warrior.”
“Prime Warrior?” The burlap-clad middle-aged man was startled for a moment, then nodded, “No problem. How far has he comprehended the Wind Vein? Has he formed any semblance of True Intent?”
“No!”
“He hasn't truly started yet,” the deep voice said indifferently.
The burlap-clad middle-aged man was taken aback.
Soon, the deep voice had outlined the general situation of Li Yuan to the burlap-clad middle-aged man.
“19 years old, and already has a semblance of True Intent?” The burlap-clad middle-aged man's eyes revealed a hint of surprise, “This young lad's talent in the Earth Vein is absolutely extremely high. With your help, perhaps in a few decades, the Seven Star Civilization will once again give birth to a powerful demigod… Why would you think of letting him comprehend the Wind Vein?”
“He has the talent for it,” the deep voice said slowly, “And with enough time, naturally, he should be allowed to attempt it.”
The burlap-clad middle-aged man shook his head; he couldn't comprehend the other's reasoning.
Suddenly.
“Earth, wind.” An idea flashed across the burlap-clad middle-aged man's mind as if realizing something, he couldn't help but say, “You want him to take that path?”
“What path?” the deep voice was very calm.
“Dongfang, there's no need to play dumb with me, I've also entered that domain,” the burlap-clad middle-aged man said, shaking his head, “Your ambition is too great, even now you wish for this junior… If he takes a wrong step, his future could be completely destroyed.”
“Success comes with failure, hope comes with destruction,” the deep voice said indifferently, “Without sacrifice, how can there be great achievement?”
The burlap-clad middle-aged man said no more.
“I owe you my life, which I cling to this day, so teaching him is not a problem,” the burlap-clad middle-aged man said softly, “But I only promise to teach for half a year. If his talent in the Wind Vein is too poor… it's not worth my time to waste.”
“If his talent is decent, I will do my best to teach him,” the burlap-clad middle-aged man said.
“Good.”
“I still trust the character of Lie Feng,” the deep voice said, “Will you go to see him, or shall I have him come to you?”
“I shall go see him,” the burlap-clad middle-aged man said.
“Fine.”
Hum~
The terrifying will that had enveloped the sea area had suddenly dissipated, leaving only the burlap-clad middle-aged man sitting alone.
“Law Will?”
“To become a demigod in just over a hundred years and to have reached this step,” the burlap-clad middle-aged man sighed internally, recalling when they first met.
At that time, the strength of both parties was not much different, or it could be said that the burlap-clad middle-aged man was slightly stronger.
But to this day, their realms are worlds apart.
“Li Yuan?”
“I hope his talent isn't too weak, teaching him for a while would be enough to fulfill a promise to Dongfang.”
“If his talent is too weak, just make do for half a year,” the burlap-clad middle-aged man didn't really care about Li Yuan.
People's talents tend to be limited, in his view, Li Yuan's talent in the Earth Vein is already extremely high. The talent for the Wind Vein? Inevitably, it won't be as high.
If it were any other Wind System Semi Divine, out of friendliness and investment in the future, perhaps someone would be willing to teach.
But the burlap-clad middle-aged man did not care about these things because he was close to death.
What would a dying man, with no younger generations to care for, bother about these things for?
Martial Divine Star Realm.
The clouds and mist around Seven Star Mountain were swirling.
On the mountainside of one of the peaks, in the open square in front of a villa mansion, a flying machine hovered.
Dressed in black, Li Yuan was sitting quietly at the very front of the square, with thousands of meters of void not far from him.
Li Yuan, facing the breeze, overlooked the vast expanse beneath him.
“The Earth Vein seems to be lively,” Li Yuan's powerful spiritual power could vaguely sense that in every palace on the peaks, there were inhabitants.
The entire Seven Star Mountain is divided into seven peaks.
Not by the ownership of the Seven Great Planets… but rather by attribute.
Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Thunder… distributed according to the cultivation of the seven veins, these are the seven main types of Origin Power most commonly seen in the world.
This arrangement is mainly to facilitate the exchange among members of the Seven Star Mountain who cultivate the same vein and also makes teaching easier.
But since entering Seven Star Mountain, Li Yuan quickly found that the members of the Seven Star Mountain on the seven peaks who contemplate the Wind and Thunder veins are very few.
Single digits.
“The rumors from before are indeed true; most of the strong in my Seven Star Civilization contemplate the Five Elements,” he thought.
“So far, the Seven Star Civilization has created seven high-rank Cultivation Methods; two for cultivating Earth Origin Power, two for Water Origin Power, and one each for Fire, Metal, and Wood Origin Power,” Li Yuan mused, “There aren't specific Cultivation Techniques for the Wind and Thunder veins.”
Which is to say.
In the Seven Star Civilization, those warriors belonging to these two veins… almost all rely on their own Law Creation to become Flying Heaven Warriors, demigods, hence their number is naturally much fewer.
Li Yuan believed that many people's talents within the civilization were buried.
Of course, there's a very small number of powerful warriors who, although initially cultivated Origin Power of the Five Elements… gradually feel during long-term cultivation that they are more suited to contemplate the Mysteries of Wind and Thunder, and would then shift their direction of cultivation.
But such strong men are rare; most warriors would still try to comprehend the True Intent mysteries corresponding to the attribute of the Origin Power they've cultivated.
After all, if the Origin Power cultivated falls within a certain vein, the compatibility with that vein tends to also be higher.
“According to Duanmu Mountain Master's implication,”
“In the entire civilization, there seem to be only two or three Wind System demigods,” Li Yuan thought, “They might not necessarily be willing to guide me… I'll leave it to fate.”
“I made a connection through consciousness resonance with the Divine, and by following the Divine Spear Technique's guidance, I was able to cultivate the Wind Vein as well.”
“Try it out for a while first.”
“If there's still not much of a clue, then put it aside for the time being.” Li Yuan was not in a hurry.
Since inheriting from the Ancient Torch Divine in the Hall of Inheritance, his cultivation pursued the path of following his heart's desires.
The vast and profound weight of the earth, its inclusiveness of all things, brought him joy.
The unpredictable agility of the wind brought him joy as well.
“What brings joy to my heart and strengthens the prowess of my spear technique is the path I should follow.” Li Yuan adhered to this principle in his heart.
Just like these past days, he was not keen on spending much time in the Martial Arts Room but preferred the outdoors instead.
Sitting at the edge of the square, he faced the roaring wind.
Often, he would sit there for most of the day.
“No wonder Dean Hai enjoys fishing.” A smile appeared on Li Yuan's face as he recalled his conversation with Dean Hai.
Dean Hai had said that fishing was a form of cultivation and that one would naturally understand and realize its essence once they reached that level.
Back then, Li Yuan did not understand.
But now? Li Yuan understood.
“All the mysteries of heaven and earth are hidden in life, hidden between heaven and earth,” Li Yuan thought silently. “Comprehending the mysteries of nature from its operations… far surpasses pondering in seclusion.”
Ordinary martial artists, they immerse themselves in arduous practice, because their realm is still at the level of 'technique'.”
But once they stepped into the Fifth Stage, body and mind, from the inside out, are close to the way of 'path'.”
The embryonic form of True Intent is the threshold to entering the path.
Suddenly.
“Hmm? Group message?” Li Yuan felt his smart wristband vibrate and couldn't help but look down.
It was a 'V group' message from the members of the Seven Star Mountain.
“Flying Heaven Level Task: Mingxu Star Realm's recruitment, the specifics are…”
Li Yuan quickly glanced at it. It was a war task from the Mingxu Star Realm, where the Seven Star Civilization was at war with the Tianliang Civilization, needing Flying Heaven-level warriors to provide support, divided into defense tasks and attack tasks.
Requirements: Members of the Seven Star Mountain can accept defense tasks, but only the top thirty members of the Seven Star Mountain may accept attack tasks.
“Top 30? Does this mean that only those who have comprehended the True Intent are qualified to take up the task?” Li Yuan thought to himself.
On the entire Seven Star Mountain, there were about thirty top geniuses who had condensed True Intent.
Subconsciously, Li Yuan glanced at his own ranking on the Seven Star Mountain: 118th.
Second to last.
Only one spot higher than Bertman.
The Seven Star Mountain ranking was sorted based on true strength and points earned from completed tasks.
“Hmm?”
Li Yuan's eyes flickered slightly as he saw a private message sent to him by Yu Jinghe. He thought to himself, “Big Brother Yu has taken up this attack task and is preparing to return to Xia Country?”
“Stay safe,” Li Yuan replied.
Li Yuan had his own conjectures.
The war between the Mingxu Star Realm and the Tianliang Clan was mainly driven by Blue Star, or to be more precise, by Xia Country.
Now, the posting of this war task on the Seven Star Mountain hopes to bring participation from the top geniuses of the entire civilization for assistance.
Most likely, they were encountering significant difficulties.
Many war tasks, unless like in the case of the Fierce Feather Star Realm's World within Worlds that involves a Divine Being Inheritance… the alliance's highest echelons would not mandate top geniuses under their command to participate in war.
These life-and-death tasks are mostly left to the geniuses to choose for themselves.
But the fact that Yu Jinghe decided so quickly to go must mean that Xia Country had made a request… Just like in the many great battles of the Rob Sea, Yu Jinghe's figure was present.
“My Xia Country has many geniuses in the Martial Divine Star Realm,” Li Yuan thought to himself. “But there are only two who have comprehended True Intent.”
One was Yu Jinghe!
The other was named 'Luo Chan', whom Li Yuan had never met.
As for top geniuses like Pei Jun who had Xia Country bloodlines, there were also some on the Seven Star Mountain, but they were born on Feixing and had very little sense of belonging to Xia Country.
“Once I comprehend True Intent and elevate my Physical Quality to the limit of a Prime Warrior, if there is a suitable opportunity, I can also take part in the battle,” Li Yuan thought to himself.
Straight away, Li Yuan stopped dwelling on it.
With his current strength, he wasn't yet qualified to take part in such large-scale wars.
To rush into it carelessly would make it easy to die in battle.
Time passed.
As night slowly set in, Li Yuan was still sitting in the square, letting the wind blow over him, silently sensing the fluctuations of the wind between heaven and earth.
Suddenly–
A figure in white approached silently, and when it was within a hundred meters, Li Yuan immediately sensed the presence and opened his eyes.
An invisible pressure enveloped heaven and earth.
“Mountain Lord.” Li Yuan bowed respectfully as the visitor was none other than the Duanmu Mountain Master.
Whoosh!
Duanmu Mountain Master approached, smiling. “You have such a keen perception. Your spiritual power must be approaching the peak of Flying Heaven Level.”
“There is still much lacking, I'm nowhere near the Mountain Lord,” Li Yuan replied with great respect.
These past days, Li Yuan had come to understand Duanmu Mountain Master's strength. Perhaps he was not like Dean Fang Hai, but within the whole Seven Star Civilization, he was also amongst the most elite right below the demigods.
Otherwise, he would not have been assigned to guard the Martial Divine Star Realm.
“Don't be modest,” Duanmu Mountain Master said with a smile. “I have come to notify you that your Wind System Semi Divine teacher has arrived. He is currently waiting for you outside the Martial Divine Star Realm.”
“Oh?” Li Yuan's eyes brightened, and he couldn't help asking, “Mountain Lord, which Semi Divine is it? The Snow Dragon Semi Divine? Or the Wind Fox Semi Divine?”
These were the two Wind System Semi Divines Li Yuan knew of.
“Neither.”
“It is an Alien Race Semi Divine,” Duanmu Mountain Master shook his head. “To be precise, he's one of the 'honorary Semi Divines' of our Seven Star Civilization.”
“He is also one of the oldest Semi Divines living within our Seven Star Civilization, not far from his end.”
