High-Level Martial Era

Chapter 255: Though Divine Be Long-lived, They Too Have an End (Additional Chapters 43, 44, 45)



"A single move to annihilate an ordinary Flying Heaven level?" Li Yuan mused, finding such a statement quite shocking.

After all, just a year ago, he had been a 'high school student' preparing for college entrance exams.

Back then, Flying Heaven Warriors existed only in legends to him.

"It's not as difficult as you think,"

"As long as you cultivate your physical foundation to level 29, enter the Sixth Stage of skill, and push the Ninefold Star Technique 'True Solution of the Earth Star Vein' and the Seventh Layers Star Technique 'Great Earth Divine Body' to the Second Order Limit, you should be able to do it," the girl said with a smile.

"After all, with so much external help, do you still lack the confidence to vie with a Flying Heaven level as a Prime Warrior?"

"I do," Li Yuan said with a smile.

What a joke.

The heritage of the Seven Star Civilization was mediocre at best, yet each era could still produce quite a number of Prime Warriors who could match Flying Heaven ones.

And what about Li Yuan? His ambitions were even greater now.

Presently, Li Yuan's primary goal was to become 'the number one Prime Warrior' in the Seven Star Civilization and, in the future, to achieve the level of slaying a Demigod as a Flying Heaven... At the very least, he needed to reach this level to barely qualify for the 'Divine Legacy' and to have a chance of embarking on the path to divinity.

Which young Divine Being wasn't an unparalleled genius in their youth?

"It's good that you're confident."

The girl nodded in satisfaction, then added, "By the way, you should have learned a Visualization Method, right?"

Li Yuan was initially startled, then he replied, "Yes."

"Don't worry, it was Little Fire who told me. It secretly spied on you while you were practicing the Visualization Method and sensed something, but couldn't fully confirm it," the girl said with a smile. "I was just testing you just now."

Li Yuan was at a loss for words.

"It seems you indeed have some other opportunity," the girl revealed a cryptic smile. "But you probably don't understand how precious the Visualization Method is, for it is a method of the Divine."

"A method of the Divine?" Li Yuan inhaled sharply.

This was the first time he learned of the origins of the Visualization Method.

"Demigods and Flying Heaven Warriors, when passing on their knowledge to disciples and progeny, often spend considerable time infusing their Spiritual Imprint into the disciples' minds, tempering their Spiritual Will," said the girl. "That's the Mind Method, but as time goes by, the imprint gradually fades... which is very inconvenient."

"The higher-level technique is the Visualization Method."

"What is the Visualization Method? The highest form is observing the fundamental nature of heaven and earth; next is observing the essence of nature; and the least is observing the aspect of the Divine," the girl explained. "The Divine, by expending a great deal of mental effort, can condense their will into 'the aspect of the Divine,' which can help a cultivator to learn the Visualization Method."

"Once learned, one can day and night visualize the true form of the Divine, strengthen the spirit, and temper the will," the girl said with a smile. "The hope of becoming a god will greatly increase."

"What's the name of the Visualization Method you learned, brother?" the girl asked curiously, looking at Li Yuan. "And what is the aspect you observe?"

Li Yuan hesitated, then said, "It's called the 'Observing the Great Sun Starry Sky Scripture.'"

When it concerned the Mind Spirit Divine Palace, Li Yuan was actually reluctant to reveal anything.

But considering his earlier interactions with Gu You, Li Yuan trusted her quite deeply in his heart.

Moreover, Li Yuan's own desire to unravel the secrets of the Mind Spirit Divine Palace was not entirely absent.

"Observing the Great Sun Starry Sky Scripture?" The girl's eyes showed confusion, clearly having never heard of it.

"My aspect of observation is that of a great sun, with my spirit body being scorched on one side, and nurtured by the boundless Starry Sky on the other," Li Yuan explained earnestly.

"What?"

The girl was genuinely surprised this time, her mouth agape as she looked at Li Yuan. "Facing the great sun, backed by the starry sky... this is the fundamental aspect of heaven and earth from the legends, one of the top Visualization Methods, that even my father had only heard about and never seen."

"Where did you get it?" the girl couldn't help asking.

Li Yuan, too, was shocked.

The Visualization Method he had learned from the Mind Empty Divine Palace, even an Ancient Torch Divine had only heard of it... Was the "Observing the Great Sun Starry Sky Scripture" that powerful?

But Li Yuan finally began to understand the marvel of the Mind Spirit Divine Palace... If the Visualization Method passed down initially was considered top-tier even by the Divine, what about the other techniques?

It was unimaginable.

"Sis, I can't really speak of its origin," Li Yuan said with a wry smile.

"Then let's not talk about it," the girl said, as if she understood everything, and suddenly giggled, "I was wondering how such a weak civilization could produce an unparalleled prodigy like you... Sure enough, there's a reason for everything."

"Don't worry."

"The variations of heaven and earth, the movement of the universe, how many secrets does this boundless dimensional river hold? How many great opportunities emerge?" the girl said with a smile. "Brother, the stronger you are, the more robust your background, the happier I will be for you."

Li Yuan nodded slightly.

Not prying into matters was indeed a good quality of this sister.

"I had prepared a Visualization Method for you," the girl said softly. "Now it seems to be unnecessary... However, according to the rules left by my father, it still has to be gifted to you."

"Whoever you want to give it to, it's up to you," the girl said with a smile.

With a flip of her palm, a jade stone emanating a radiant aura appeared in her hand.

"To learn the Visualization Method, you need at least Flying Heaven level spiritual power," the girl advised. "Simply crush the jade stone, sense it with your soul, and you can quickly condense the aspect of visualization in your world of mind."

"The aspect of visualization of the Divine is not eternally existent; it probably lasts for 1000 years, which should be enough for a Demigod's lifetime of cultivation," the girl said.

"A thousand years?" Li Yuan asked curiously. "Sister, can Demigods only live for a thousand years?"

"Isn't a thousand years long enough?" the girl asked with a smile. "Don't you know the lifespan associated with the stages of the Martial Path?"

Li Yuan couldn't help but shake his head.

He truly had no idea.

"Below the Second Rank, the typical limit is about 150 years," she stated matter-of-factly.

"Second Rank Life, a lifespan of 300 years."

"Third Rank Flying Heaven, 500 years."

"Fourth Rank Demigod, a thousand years."

"Fifth Order Divine Being, five thousand years," the girl finally said.
