Chapter 1361: Chapter 617: Survive (Part 3)

Swoosh! Liu Bing flew into the sky and disappeared into the night.

Leaving a bewildered Huo Ye Divine Monarch behind.

“It seems there’s no hope,” Huo Ye Divine Monarch said with some resignation.

…

Only a few days later.

Liu Bing embarked on her journey back to the Chaos Divine Court. Along the way, a hint of delight flashed across her face, as a thread of Heart Power entered the Heart Dream Divine Realm.

Heart Dream Divine Realm, in a chat room.

Liu Bing, dressed in white, with her dress fluttering, appeared out of nowhere and immediately saw the composed Li Yuan.

She ran directly to Li Yuan and, somewhat nervously, asked, “Big brother, are you okay?”

“No problem.”

“It seems the news of me being trapped in the Earth Split Abyss has spread completely,” Li Yuan said with a smile.

“Yes.”

“Even many ordinary heavenly gods knew about it when I was on Feng Yan Star,” Liu Bing nodded repeatedly, “There’s nothing we can do, big brother, your fame in the Divine Realm has grown too large over the past hundred years. In terms of reputation, even many Divine Kings may not compare to you… Ascending to the top five of the Heavenly God List in just a few hundred years—a feat unheard of in the history of the Divine Realm.”

“My fame is one aspect,” Li Yuan said calmly, “In the shadows, I’m afraid it’s also the Abyss Divine Court and the Wandao Divine Court fanning the flames. Having paid such a significant price, they naturally want to let the powerful from various factions know, to forge their might.”

“Big brother, can you smoothly escape?” Liu Bing asked eagerly.

“It’s difficult,” Li Yuan uttered a single word.

Just as Liu Bing relaxed a little, she tensed up again.

“But don’t worry, my life is not in danger,” Li Yuan said with a smile, about the matter of his avatar, it could not be disclosed for now.

Liu Bing also breathed a sigh of relief inwardly.

“You ascending to a heavenly god is a great event,” Li Yuan smiled and said, “Yet, you didn’t inform me?”

This was also why Li Yuan was actively reaching out.

“I knew your situation was urgent, so I didn’t dare to send messages for fear of distracting you,” Liu Bing explained quickly.

“Hmm.”

“Though I’m not in danger, it’s hard to escape for the time being, and the outside world doesn’t know,” Li Yuan said, “The Abyss Divine Court and the Wandao Divine Court might again be unfavorable to the Firewood Divine Country.”

“I am also pondering this matter,” Liu Bing said.

“Dong Mang God King has promised to protect the Firewood Divine Country,” Li Yuan said, “When you return to the Mohe Star Domain, first find the Fire Phoenix for ordinary dangers she will solve… If the Fire Phoenix can’t solve it, then go seek an audience with Dong Mang God King.”

“Alright.” Liu Bing was completely relieved; she knew that Li Yuan had a very special relationship with Dong Mang God King.

“Additionally.”

“Are you going back to the Jue Xing Continent?” Li Yuan asked, knowing that Liu Bing was the grand-disciple of Tian Qing God King.

“No hurry.”

“I will wait until I’ve cultivated all the Star Techniques to the Seventh Rank Extreme,” Liu Bing said.

“Alright,” Li Yuan nodded.

Soon after.

Liu Bing received a notification of a ’500 million trillion Heart Dream Coin’ transfer from Li Yuan.

“What is this? Big brother?” Liu Bing was shocked.

This wealth, for her, was astonishing, and most Divine Monarchs probably couldn’t bring it out.

“Previously, you were just a True God, and I couldn’t let you become reliant,” Li Yuan said with a smile, “Now that you’ve ascended to a heavenly god, you are more than able to control this wealth… Consider it a gift from your big brother as a congratulation.”

“Decide what to do with them yourself.”

“When you become a Divine Monarch one day, I’ll prepare another gift for you,” Li Yuan said with a smile.

“Thank you, big brother,” Liu Bing said gratefully.

“Hmm,” Li Yuan nodded, though inwardly he was muttering, “I still have to temporarily borrow from Dong Mang senior brother.”

Correct.

This 500 million trillion Heart Dream Coin was temporarily borrowed from the All Things Palace through Dong Mang God King by Li Yuan.

It has to be returned in the future.

However, with Li Yuan’s current strength, he wasn’t very concerned about these Heart Dream Coins.

…

The outside world was in turmoil.

On Beichen Star, all the heavenly gods of the major forces knew about the ’Heart Origin Divine Monarch trapped in the Earth Split Abyss’, yet no one retreated, all continuing to fight for various treasures.

While deeper within Beichen Star, at the depths of the Earth Split Abyss, it was rather quiet.

“Little Bing has actually ascended to the Heavenly God Realm.”

“That’s good news,” Li Yuan was also quite pleased upon hearing the news.

The greatest benefit brought about by Liu Bing entering the Heavenly God Realm is the ability to smoothly travel back and forth between the Mohe Star Domain and the Northern Hill Mortal Domain.

As for the safety of the Firewood Divine Country itself, with the promise of the Dong Mang God King, Li Yuan is not very worried.

“Hmph.”

“Abyss Divine Court? Wandao Divine Court? Clearly I’m not dead yet, and you’re already spreading the news of my demise everywhere? You want me dead that badly? If I were truly dead, wouldn’t that just be as you wished?” Li Yuan’s eyes were icy cold: “Just wait.”

It had been a long time since Li Yuan was pushed to such a state.

Although he had long planned to venture into the Earth Split Abyss, doing so of his own accord and being forced into it are two completely different concepts.

“And the Purple Crow Universe! Qian Yu Divine Monarch!” Li Yuan recited the names silently in his heart.

They were all on his list for revenge. Chapters first released on novelfire(.)net

“According to the information given by Brother Dong Mang, this is already the Second Layer Tribulation, the ’Thunder Tribulation’.” Li Yuan continued to fall downward, guided by the swallowing force below.

His speed increased faster and faster.

The surroundings were pitch black, and Li Yuan’s insight could not even peer into the distance, only occasionally birthing strands of bluish thunder light.

Whenever encountering the bluish thunder light, Li Yuan would strive to employ secret techniques and manipulate domains to try and dodge… According to the information, even a Divine Monarch once struck by the thunder light would be severely wounded or even fall.

But occasionally, dozens of lightning bolts would simultaneously appear… Li Yuan, falling all the way down, could only slightly adjust his trajectory before colliding with one.

Once hit!

Even his Divine Body would be injured… Facing attacks this way isn’t an issue, but what if it’s a thousand times, ten thousand times?

…

Time passed, day by day.

In the blink of an eye, more than six months had passed… The major forces from the outside world had long since determined that Li Yuan had utterly fallen.

Only those with Li Yuan’s token and with very close relationships with him knew that Li Yuan had not yet fallen.

However, the high-levels of the Chaos Divine Court ordered a strict blockade of this news.

Deep within the Beichen Star.

A mysterious place where the void twisted, filled with countless flames and cold currents; the cold and heat intertwined, making their might reach terrifying levels.

And within the flames and cold currents, occasionally strands of pink mist would flow.

Boom!

A terrifying silver figure, towering ten thousand feet, plummeted down at a shocking speed, crashing into the ground, causing the bottommost boundless land to tremble thunderously, tearing open countless mountain- and valley-like fissures.

This silver figure, battered and bruised, bore terrifying visible cracks all over the Divine Body, blood streaming… Numerous flames and cold currents also encircled various parts of the body.

“Hahaha!”

“Haha!” An almost frenzied voice rang out, emanating from the towering silver-armored figure, a voice imbued with endless madness and joy.

It was Li Yuan.

“Divine Power expenditure exceeds ninety percent! The Divine Body and Divine Heart are nearly shattered, even the inner armor of the Divine Heart has been mostly destroyed… Haha, but I have finally survived.” Li Yuan continuously roared, venting the anger and madness accumulated in his heart over these six months.

After a long time, Li Yuan finally calmed down completely.

“Alive.”

“The Fourth Layer Tribulation, I survived it.” Li Yuan’s eyes emanated killing intent: “Abyss Divine Court, Wandao Divine Court, Purple Crow Universe… wait for me to come back and kill you! Wait for me to come back and kill you.”

Although the Origin Body can fall and be cultivated anew.

But carrying many treasures with him, Li Yuan naturally did not want to give them up, especially those left by the Divine Emperor… he naturally struggled all the way with madness.

The First and Second Layers of tribulation were manageable, Li Yuan easily withstood them.

But from the Third Layer of tribulation onwards, it became dangerous, and by the Fourth Layer tribulation, the ’Fire Cold Desire Tribulation’, it made Li Yuan’s heart tremble.

Flames and cold currents intertwined, their might unbelievable, as if they were specifically meant to erode the Divine Body and Combat Armor.

Fortunately, it was a God King-level Armor that could withstand it, but Li Yuan’s Divine Body was less able to hold up.

And rarely, it was all about the word ’desire’!

Those seemingly insignificant wisps of pink mist incessantly stirred the inner heart, with wave after wave of Illusionary Realms attacking… Even with Li Yuan’s strong soul will, it was extremely difficult to withstand.

A six-month journey like a nightmare.

Now, the nightmare was finally over.

“No wonder!”

“No wonder in history, only two Invincible Heavenly Gods have survived all four tribulations to set foot on the land of trials.” Li Yuan had a surge of boldness in his heart: “Haha, today, I, a True God, also succeeded in passing it.”
