High-Level Martial Era

Chapter 1681: Chapter 732: Heart Source Quasi-Saint Appears

God King Realm, but having the confidence to kill some ordinary Emperor Realm with weak survival abilities… If this news spreads, it would definitely cause a storm.

After all, any ordinary Emperor Realm has taken the Fourth Step through the High Rank Eternal Dao… In terms of realm, they are equivalent to the topmost God Kings, and their Divine Body surpasses the Ten-Stars Vein God King.

Like the Seventh Rank Quasi-Saints in the vast universe, such as Purple Fire God King, they are only confident enough to kill the weakest of the Emperor Realm, and can only guarantee survival against some ordinary Emperor Realm… It’s difficult for Seventh Rank Quasi-Saints to suppress an ordinary Emperor Realm.

The overall gap between Low Rank Quasi-Saints and the Emperor Realm is too great.

“In the billion-year and even more ancient cosmic history, there were Seventh Rank Quasi-Saints who were stronger than I am now, but that was the past,” Li Yuan mused to himself. “At least in the present era.”

“Among the 23 publicly acknowledged Seventh Rank Quasi-Saints in the entire cosmos, not to mention life-and-death battles, even in pure material attacks, there should be no one stronger than me,” Li Yuan looked down at his hands, gently clenching them into fists.

Feeling the terrifying power contained within his fists.

Previously, Li Yuan had the confidence to defeat any Seventh Rank Quasi-Saint, relying on a powerful reserve of Divine Power… Now, even if their Divine Power reserves are comparable, Li Yuan is confident of defeating any Seventh Rank Quasi-Saint.

However.

Li Yuan felt no pride… What if he stands out below the Emperor Realm? His enemies are in the Supreme Star City, and there are groups of Dominators there, and many more Emperor Peak and ordinary Emperor Realm entities.

Now, although his strength has increased considerably, any Emperor Peak expert can still easily crush him.

“I still need time.”

“Wait until I open more Eternal Dao, and until the many Eternal Dao progress further,” Li Yuan quietly thought to himself. “Wait until I cultivate the Hundred Paths Saint Body Body Refining Technique to the Second Layer.”

“In the God King Realm, I will have full hope to compete with the Emperor Realm Peak.”

“Then, once I step into the Emperor Realm… perhaps I might be able to battle the Dominators, and by then, I’ll truly have the confidence to stand firm in the vast universe, fearless of the Supreme’s threats,” Li Yuan harbored great ambitions in his heart.

The formidable presence of Han Xing Supreme forced the Chaos Mansion to withdraw and hide in Tianluo Star City, and many Quasi-Saints of the Chaos Mansion had their true bodies slain while venturing outside… Li Yuan knew all this, and his heart was filled with fury.

Although both the Chaos God Emperor and Heart Dream God Emperor told him it wasn’t his responsibility.

Li Yuan did not think so.

“If not for me, the Chaos Mansion wouldn’t have been forced to such an extent,” Li Yuan’s heart burned with killing intent, yet he remained extremely calm: “Endure.”

“Endure for now.”

“I’ve only cultivated for five thousand years; give me time and I will grow stronger.”

…

Time flows like water, year after year.

After the first true body cultivated the entry-level, Li Yuan’s other true bodies gained experience, greatly accelerating their speed, succeeding one after another… Then, Li Yuan dedicated more energy to attempting the cultivation of the Second Layer of the Hundred Paths Saint Body Body Refining Technique.

But soon he hit a bottleneck.

“Earlier, I underestimated the difficulty of this Second Layer,” Li Yuan couldn’t help but shake his head. “I thought I had comprehended its mystery, but in true cultivation, it’s surprisingly tough.”

Earlier, Li Yuan thought he could cultivate both the First Layer and Second Layer of the Body Refining Technique in one go.

But after truly succeeding in cultivating the First Layer and continuing to attempt the Second Layer, he finally found the issue.

“I am incorporating three Top Eternal Daos, yet the Daos differ, which is fundamentally different from the framework of the Hundred Dao Emperor; my Holy Body Foundation is stronger and more perfect, but the difficulty of cultivation is also higher,” Li Yuan realized.

After multiple failed deductions.

Li Yuan also drew a conclusion: “My attainments in the Myriad Spirit Dao and the Great Destruction Dao are still low; both have only taken the First Step. Trying to construct a powerful organism surpassing a Mid Grade Emperor Weapon is indeed too difficult, and it might take tens of thousands of years to even construct a weak one.”

The foundation of the Dao was weak.

“If my Myriad Spirit Dao and Great Destruction Dao could progress further, both taking the Second Step, efficiency would dramatically increase when deducing the mystery of the Divine Body framework,” Li Yuan mused. “Then cultivating the Second Layer should be much easier.”

Dao is the foundation.

Only when the mystery of the Dao is strong enough, both cultivated Absolute Skills or self-created Absolute Skills… will be much easier!

…

Li Yuan’s numerous true bodies all gave up continuing to deduce the Hundred Paths Saint Body Body Refining Technique and turned to continue researching the mystery of Eternal Dao frameworks… Meanwhile.

As time passed.

In the distant Heart Dream Universe, Li Yuan’s seniors and friends, like Li Yang, Dean Hai, Tian Dazhuang, and others… all reached their lifespan limits.

And nephews and nieces and similar family members also reached their lifespan limits.

In the Heart Dream Universe, Li Yuan’s two true bodies tirelessly led these seniors and friends’ souls into his Inner Universe, helping them remold their physical bodies, and then sent them to nascent civilizations within his Inner Universe, guiding them to start a second cultivation.

Li Yuan also hoped for a miracle to happen.

“There are fewer and fewer people in the Seven Star Civilization worthy of my concern,” Li Yuan thought to himself; he also increasingly understood why many God Emperors wouldn’t appear in the cosmic space-time for millions if not tens of millions of years.

Because it’s no longer worthwhile.

Like Li Yuan, having only cultivated for several thousand years, his mindset had already begun to change, so what about after millions or tens of millions of years? Among all living beings in the current Chaos Divine Court, there might be no one familiar, and none worthy of attachment.

Unless an extraordinary genius is born, one with the potential to become a ’Dao friend.’

“However, the time until I am nearly free of attachments is quite distant,” Li Yuan silently thought. “Lanyue and the others are still True Gods with a lifespan of thirty thousand years… there’s still a long time before I need to guide them.”
