Chapter 375: Chapter 253: Divine Legacy (Additional Release 42, Monthly Ticket Please!!)_2
She was the custodian of her spiritual refuge.
The death of the Ancient Torch Divine was for her no different than the sky collapsing.
That war was incredibly brutal.
Ultimately, as the Ancient Torch Divine lay dying, he entrusted the Hall of Inheritance, which he had prepared in advance, to the Fire System Divine trusted most under his command, desperately sending him away.
In the blink of an eye, nearly ten thousand years passed, the girl knew nothing of the outside world, unaware of the final outcome of that great battle of gods⊠She simply followed her fatherâs last wishes, hiding in this part of the Star Realm.
Until a hundred years ago.
Only when she felt that the Star Realm had completely stabilized, and that Divines could no longer descend, did she dare to truly emerge and begin choosing a successor, until today.
âJust Second Rank, huh.â The girl looked at Li Yuan.
Still weak, but with unlimited potential.
She patiently waited beside Li Yuan until his memory fully fused with the light of inheritance.
âŠ
As Li Yuan received the inheritance, the Fierce Feather Star Realm was in constant battle, war raging everywhere.
The Seven Star Civilization and the Gu Yue Divine Kingdom fought fiercely.
About two thousand miles from the fourth outpost base of Gu Yue Divine Kingdom.
Atop a vast mountain range.
A towering figure over ten meters tall, with a body shining like gold as if a giant, wielding two massive shields.
He stood in the void, his presence overwhelming, his gigantic eyes scanning the four corners of the void, faintly burning with flames.
Suddenlyâ
Boom!
A strange knife light appeared silently behind him, unpredictable and mysterious, with strands of greenish air currents flowing within the blade light, stealthily assaulting the towering golden figure.
âRumble~â
As if the golden giant had eyes on his back, he swiftly turned around. Instead of trying to block the knife light, he swung the two enormous shields in his hands like giant palms, violently clapping them together at the figure behind the blade light.
âPuchi~â The knife light swept across the chest of the golden giant, its shocking penetrative power instantly slicing through the Origin Power Battle Suit, then leaving behind a startling torn wound on the golden giantâs chest.
Yet, that wound was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
âPong~â The two massive shields also fiercely hit the disheveled-haired figure.
At first glance, it seemed like swatting a mosquito, attempting to crush Lude Nef outright.
Boom! Lude Nef took the ferocious hit head-on, then with all his strength erupting, he broke free from the restraints of the two shields and burst backward fiercely.
âPretty tough, huh.â The golden figure spoke in a deep voice, âLude Nef, you are indeed very strong, I canât do anything to you, but I have cultivated the âMyriad Gold Divine Bodyâ to the Second Order Limit, earning the title of an âUndying Bodyâ⊠You canât kill me.â
âHmph!â Lude Nefâs gaze was icy, staring fixedly at the golden figure.
In terms of skill level, he was much better than his opponent.
But Martial Artists can often only cultivate two Star Techniques, even those top-tier geniuses.
Thus, top-tier geniuses were also destined to have their own strengths.
Like Lude Nef, what he cultivated were the âWind Shadow,â a Sixth Layer Star Technique, and the âBlood Eroding Wind Blade,â a Fifth Layer Star Technique; when combined, alongside the âTrue Meaning of Shadowlessnessâ he had comprehended from the Wind Vein.
It made him an extremely terrifying assassin in both Stealth and attack, causing countless opponents to dread him.
Many Flying Heaven level of the Alien Race had been one-shot killed by him.
The Flying Heaven level assassin âDark Shadowâ from the Tianliang Clan, who was targeted by Fang Haiâs schemesâif faced head-on, might not even be a match for Lude Nef.
However.
Even a master like Lude Nef had his nemesis, and the golden giant before him was just that⊠Ao Jia!
He, too, was a Sixth Stage skill master and a Prime Warrior prodigy with immense fame within the Gu Yue Divine Kingdom.
Ao Jia cultivated the Seven Stars Technique âMyriad Gold Divine Body,â a famous technique of Dongfang Ji that effectively combined body protection, defense, and explosive power and speed in one formidable Star Technique.
Now, the two sides clashed.
No matter how desperately Lude Nef kept attacking, he could not inflict a fatal wound.
Ao Jiaâs ability to protect himself was considered inconceivable among the Second Rank.
âLude Nef, letâs end the battle here,â Ao Jiaâs voice boomed, âAlthough youâve lost two men, youâve also slaughtered many⊠youâve already taken great advantage.â
âThe demigods of our Gu Yue Divine Kingdom have already said they wish to settle the dispute and share control of the World within Worlds equally, how about it?â Ao Jia tempted.
âDream on!â Lude Nefâs voice was filled with rage, âIf we were all Flying Heaven Warriors, you would definitely die by my blade.â
âPity we are but Prime Warriors,â Ao Jia laughed, âOr do you plan to break through to become a Flying Heaven Warrior in the Fierce Feather Star Realm?â
Lude Nefâs gaze was ice-cold.
In the entire Fierce Feather Star Realm, except for the great opportunity offered by the World within Worlds, there were hardly any other treasures, and Prime Warriors couldnât enter the World within Worlds⊠such top-level geniuses naturally wouldnât break through in the Fierce Feather Star Realm.
That would be self-destructive to their future prospects.
Two days ago, Lude Nef and the other eight Flying Heaven-level forces ambushed and dealt a devastating blow to the Gu Yue Divine Kingdom⊠but the forces of Gu Yue Divine Kingdom counterattacked swiftly.
Up to this point, both sides had suffered considerable casualties.
âWhen it comes to treasures left by the divine, you canât defend them,â Ao Jia spoke gravely, âOur passage is over ten thousand kilometers away from your breeding areas.â
âYet it is only a few hundred kilometers from our main base⊠You may have won the surprise attack this time, but you canât hold it, you will have to retreat sooner or later.â
Lude Nef watched silently.
Indeed, the distance was a severe disadvantage⊠it was almost impossible for the Seven Star Civilization to occupy the second passage.
After a long while.
Lude Nef finally chose to retreat, and only then did the golden giant in the void breathe a sigh of relief.
âTruly terrifying.â
âThis Lude Nef, if we talk about strength, could almost be regarded as a Divine Child Level Genius within the Divine Kingdom,â Ao Jia muttered secretly.
Prime Warriors recognized as Divine Child Level in the entire Gu Yue Divine Kingdom were only two or three.
Ao Jia, whether in terms of strength or potential, was inferior to the other.
âAnd that Yu Jinghe, his strength is so much more formidable than the intelligence reports,â Ao Jia recalled the recent major battle.
If it werenât for Yu Jinghe suddenly unleashing a power nearly equal to Lude Nefâs direct combat strength.
The Seven Star Civilization would have lost more than just two men.
âLetâs head back, rebuild the base first, and then prepare for the next attack,â Ao Jiaâs body rapidly shrank, turning into a streak of light shooting up into the sky.
âŠ
In the Gu Yue Divine Kingdom, Mintian City.
âDamn it!â
âThe mixed scum of the Seven Star Civilization actually dared to launch a surprise attack,â Mintian Hou roared furiously as he looked at the casualty report in his hands, nearly driven mad with anger.
This time around, of the 10 prepared Flying Heaven Warriors they gathered, eight perished.
Only two remained.
If it werenât for him receiving the message and immediately contacting a large number of demigods from the Gu Yue Divine Kingdom to urgently dispatch a number of super-genius warriors into the Fierce Feather Star Realm to block Lude Nef, the situation could have become irrevocably dire.
Even so, the power in the hands of their four demigods had temporarily lost the possibility of mounting a frontal assault.
âWe must report to the clan,â Mintian Houâs gaze narrowed as his heart bled.
