High-Level Martial Era

"Even divine beings can't live forever?" Li Yuan was taken aback, having imagined that beings bold enough to call themselves divine should have lifespans, if not equal to the heavens, then at least tens of thousands of years.

Five thousand years is indeed very long, comparable to the entire lifespan of the Seven Star Civilization.

But that seemed to fall short of his expectations for divinity.

"So-called divine beings are merely powerful life forms, who in this world is immortal? Nothing is eternal," the girl smiled and said, "The passage of years, the cycle of life and death, these are the ultimate truths of the universe."

"The pursuit of Martial Arts Cultivation is essentially a struggle with the heavens for longevity."

Li Yuan nodded slightly.

He kept the 'Visualization Method' given by Gu You, as for whom to give it to, Li Yuan hadn't decided yet.

"With your strong spiritual power and superior skills, you should strive to reach the Seven Star Pulse level during your Prime Warrior phase," the girl said with a hint of expectancy in her eyes, "And then, you may try to breakthrough to the Eight Star Pulse in the Flying Heaven Stage."

"Seven Star Pulse?" Li Yuan was curious.

Although he had set goals for himself.

But like Principal Fang Hai and Bai Shan Semi-Divine, their highest hopes were only that he could reach the Six Star Pulse.

"Every creature is spirited, and within each entity lies a vast expanse of Life Stars; theoretically, everyone has the potential to breakthrough the Six Star Pulse, but awakening so many Life Stars requires extremely high skills and immensely strong spiritual power," the girl said earnestly, "And since the lifespan of a Prime Warrior is limited, their golden cultivation period is even shorter...

That's why most can't reach their limit and have to breakthrough prematurely."

"Hesitate once, and you will be slowing down at every step afterward."

"A Prime Warrior who hesitates will lag doubly as a Flying Heaven Warrior."

"In the end, the vast majority of semidivines find it difficult to breakthrough to the Seven Star Pulse," the girl smiled, "The Seven Star Pulse has also become a legend among many civilizations, with very few reaching it."

Li Yuan listened with bated breath, knowing that everything has a spirit was something he was already aware of.

But the other secrets were new to him.

"Your Star Meridian talent belongs to the very top tier, and now both your skills and spiritual power are not lacking," the girl said with expectation, "Once you become a Eight Star Pulse in the future... even if you eventually become divine, you will be among the strongest in your foundation among the divines."

"Sister, what is Master's Star Meridian foundation?" Li Yuan couldn't help but ask.

"Father is only a Seven Star Pulse, but he has two Nine Layer Star Veins," the girl said seriously, "Overall, father's foundation is quite good among the divine."

"After all, theoretically, the Five-Star Meridian could be enough to ignite the Divine Fire," she said.

Li Yuan was puzzled.

Five Star Meridian? The requirement is that low?

"It's just theoretical, normally, those who become divine on their own are at least of the Six Star Pulse," she said with a smile.

Li Yuan nodded, this was more in line with his impressions.

"Sister."

"Isn't it said that Flying Heaven Warriors find it difficult to further awaken their Star Meridians?" Li Yuan couldn't help but ask.

"Who said that? Your elders?"

"A bunch of fools," the girl frowned and said, "Flying Heaven Warriors only find it more difficult to awaken Star Meridians, not that they can't. Theoretically, even as a semidivine... they can continue to awaken Star Meridians, it's just that very few among semidivines can do so."

Li Yuan listened intently.

Many of the 'basic' knowledge, for the Seven Star Civilization, might be a 'knowledge desert.'

This was all experience summed up by generations of divine beings.

"Theoretically, at the Prime Warrior stage, with your skills, spiritual power... it's impossible to sustain until awakening the Eight Star Veins," the girl said seriously, "Thus, awakening the Seven Star Pulse is a kind of limit for Prime Warriors."

"Step into the Flying Heaven, and work hard to awaken the Eight Star Pulse... this is my highest expectation for you," she added.

Li Yuan listened intently and finally asked, "What about the Nine Star Pulse?"

"Don't aim too high," she said.

"The Nine Star Pulse, forget your civilization... it's probably legendary even in the entire Dimensional Domain," the girl seemed to recall something.

After pondering for a moment,

she added, "Of course, I'm not saying you have no hope at all, but remember, eat your food one bite at a time, the Nine Star Pulse... at least wait until you reach the Seven Star Pulse as a Second Order Prime Warrior before you contemplate the Nine Star Pulse."

"Understood."

...

The two talked for a while longer.

Li Yuan stored all the treasures gifted by Gu You into the Storage Magical Treasure, and took possession of the token that allowed entry and exit from the World within Worlds,

"I've said so much," she said.

"Remember, once you go out, don't reveal the secret of receiving a Divine Being Inheritance; a precautionary heart is necessary," the girl instructed, "Wait until you reach the Second Order Limit in strength, then come back and see me."

"I'll send you to little fire."

With that,

she didn't wait for Li Yuan to say goodbye.

With a wave of her hand, an invisible ripple swept by, and Li Yuan had disappeared from the spot.

"I didn't expect this,

"After so long without speaking, as soon as I saw someone, I talked so much," the girl murmured to herself, "Father, it appears that your disciple is quite extraordinary, to have received such a top-notch Visualization Method... Our chances of success have perhaps increased a bit more."

"Little brother,"

"I hope you don't let down my expectations," the girl gently closed her eyes, standing motionless in the void like a porcelain doll,

as if slipped into slumber.

...

With a buzzing sound, Li Yuan's world spun.

He still had many questions he hadn't finished asking, like who had killed the Ancient Torch Divine, or how this World within Worlds came into being if divine beings couldn't descend upon the Star Realm, and the whereabouts of Lin Lanyue.

But Gu You seemed unwilling to say more.

And simply sent him away.

With a silent buzz,

as everything settled down, Li Yuan found himself in a grand hall when his vision cleared, noticing himself in a vast space.

All four walls of the hall were of a fiery red hue.

Even more so, the Divine Pillars were engraved with a great number of fire bird reliefs... as if he had entered a world of flames.
