Chapter 336: Breakthrough! Star Lord Realm

Li Yang directly shattered the bottleneck between the Peak of Longevity Realm and the Star Lord Realm.

RUMBLE!

Instantly, Li Yang sensed a scorching energy permeating the world.

This energy was red, present in every corner of the void, seemingly infinite.

This was the Fire Element Law Origin!

The further he broke through, the more Li Yang could sense the terrifying power of this Fire Element Law Origin!

’Absorb!’

Upon sensing it, Li Yang activated his Law, and streams of Fire Element Law Origin immediately began to surge into his body!

Then, Li Yang’s body began a rapid transformation!

A Longevity Realm expert had a lifespan of ten thousand years, but a Star Lord’s lifespan was ten times that, reaching a hundred thousand years!

The Fire Element Law Origin was constantly elevating Li Yang’s plane of existence!

Each breakthrough was a monumental leap in one’s plane of existence, shattering the body’s genetic limitations and pushing it to evolve to a higher state.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Li Yang continuously absorbed the endless streams of Fire Element Law Origin. Ten minutes... half an hour... one hour...

The process continued for a full two hours.

Finally, Li Yang felt his body’s transformation come to an end.

The endless Fire Element Law Origin throughout the world receded. Although Li Yang had absorbed a great deal of the Origin, it was a mere fraction of the whole, like taking a single drop of water from the ocean—it had no effect whatsoever.

Lightly clenching his fist, Li Yang tested his newfound strength.

A Flame appeared in his palm. The energy it radiated was clearly far more powerful than before.

Before, he was at the Peak of Longevity Realm. Now, having broken through, his strength had undoubtedly taken a great leap forward.

’A Star Lord!’ A smile touched Li Yang’s lips as he gazed at the more potent Flame.

When he first heard of this realm and its hundred-thousand-year lifespan, he had been utterly shocked, thinking Star Lords were the supreme experts of the Cosmos.

Yet how much time had passed since then? And he had already reached this realm!

In fact, if he had wanted to, he probably could have reached it decades ago!

’Continue!’

After briefly savoring the feeling, Li Yang didn’t stop.

Arcs of lightning began to crackle across his body.

This was the Thunder Law!

It wasn’t just the Fire Element Law; Li Yang’s Thunder Law and Space Law could also break through to the Star Lord Realm!

BOOM!

With a gentle push, the bottleneck for the Thunder Law was also easily shattered. In an instant, the Thunder Law Origin descended! Li Yang began to absorb it without pause.

After his Thunder Law completely broke through, Li Yang began breaking through with his Space Law, absorbing the Space Law Origin with all his might...

One hour... two hours...

For the hours that followed, Li Yang simply continued to absorb.

It wasn’t just Li Yang’s main body; at this moment, his Sky-Fierce Flood Dragon avatar, his Thunder Star Beast avatar, his World Tree avatar, and even his oft-ignored octopus avatar were all breaking through!

The Fire Nether Divine Beast avatar, however, did not choose to break through.

After all, if the Fire Nether Divine Beast avatar broke through right after Li Yang just did, it would be far too much of a coincidence.

Besides, the efficiency of comprehending Laws was the same in both the Longevity Realm and the Star Lord Realm. It wouldn’t make a difference if the Fire Nether Divine Beast avatar, currently residing with its clan, broke through a little later.

In the end, a total of six hours had passed before the last of the Space Law Origin completely receded.

The breakthrough was finally over.

All of Li Yang’s Three-Element Laws had now broken through to the Star Lord Realm!

’My overall strength has increased by about three or four times,’ Li Yang assessed after a moment.

The gap between the Peak of Longevity Realm and the Star Lord Realm was certainly more than three or four times. However, the Laws Li Yang had comprehended already amplified his power so much that the increase from this breakthrough didn’t seem as massive in comparison.

After the breakthrough, Li Yang remained seated, a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

’I’ve broken through to the Star Lord Realm. Let’s see if the World Tree avatar can nurture another avatar.’

Based on past experience, the World Tree had been able to nurture a new avatar each time he broke through to a new major realm.

The octopus avatar at the Mortal Realm.

The Thunder Star Beast avatar at the Spirit Awakening Realm.

The Sky-Fierce Flood Dragon avatar at the Law Realm.

The Fire Nether Divine Beast avatar at the Longevity Realm.

And now, he had broken through to the Star Lord Realm!

Li Yang was filled with anticipation. If he could nurture another avatar, it would undoubtedly accelerate his progress in comprehending Laws, and he would be able to master one more Law in the future!

After becoming Deities, everyone began to comprehend other Laws! Without comprehending more, it was impossible to break through to the Emperor realm.

And those who mastered even more Laws were the most powerful experts among the Emperors!

As Li Yang watched with anticipation, deep within the World Tree avatar, its nurturing space began to slowly change.

’Just as I thought, it’s starting to change again!’

Detecting this change, a look of elation instantly spread across Li Yang’s face.

Just as he had expected, the World Tree avatar could nurture another avatar!

Li Yang marveled inwardly at the terrifying power of the mysterious small sword. The stronger he became, the more he learned.

Just as Soul Ink had said, two avatars was basically the limit for an expert. Those with three were so rare you could count them on one hand!

And yet, counting the World Tree, he already had five avatars!

If it nurtured another, he would have six!

And all of this was thanks to the Inner Power Skill from the mysterious small sword!

’What level of weapon is that mysterious small sword? A Supreme Saint Artifact?’ Li Yang couldn’t help but wonder.

He had been lucky enough to obtain the Profound Annihilation Spear, a Sacred Artifact that not even all Emperors possessed. But in his senses, the Profound Annihilation Spear was no match for the mysterious small sword. The spear even seemed somewhat afraid of it, not daring to be near it.

’Only the most powerful Supreme Saint Artifacts in the Cosmos could have the ability to make other Sacred Artifacts feel fear, right?’

If that were true, Li Yang found it hard to even imagine.

The entire Human Race possessed only one Supreme Saint Artifact, the Majestic Star River. It was the ultimate treasure that protected the race, and a single ripple of its power could easily obliterate an Emperor!

A Supreme Saint Artifact in his mind? Li Yang didn’t dare to think about it any longer.

Numerous thoughts flashed through his mind, but Li Yang quickly reined them in.

’Thinking too much right now is useless. The only thing I should be doing is increasing my strength as fast as I can!’

He was only at the Star Lord Realm, which was still incredibly weak in the grand scale of the Cosmos. Beyond it lay World Masters, Deities, Emperors, and even Dominators...

Li Yang’s cultivation journey had only just begun. At most, he was considered a peerless genius.

Without sufficient strength, he couldn’t protect himself. Forget the mysterious small sword in his mind; if anyone found out about the Sacred Artifact Profound Annihilation Spear, he wouldn’t be able to keep it.

’Which deity avatar should I choose?’ Li Yang wondered.

Since he could nurture one, he would of course choose a Deity avatar, similar to the Fire Nether Divine Beast!

He had acquired the skin fragment of the Fire Nether Divine Beast from the Yangyuan Emperor’s treasury. The Yangyuan Empire’s treasury had only contained that single fragment from a naturally born Deity.

However, within the Human Race’s Eternal Saint Hall, there were several different kinds!

There were not many naturally born Deities in the Cosmos, fewer than ten species in total. But the Human Race’s Eternal Saint Hall had fragments and remains of basically all of them, allowing Li Yang to choose directly.
