Chapter 561: Chapter 321: Law’s Oath! “Heavenly Wind Star Veins True Explanation”_3

Li Yuan was listening.

In the mouth of the Wind System Alien God, the “Honored Lord” was probably the Heavenly Serpent Divine Being.

“Elder, what are your requirements?” Li Yuan asked.

“If you become a named disciple, there are no requirements. I will give you a treasure, and you may choose any one of the Seventh Layer Star Techniques from the ones I’ve left behind,” the green-robed phantom said.

“If you become a named disciple, I will give you a more precious treasure, allowing you to select any one of the Star Techniques I’ve left behind and bestow upon you a ‘Visualization Method of the Divine Being,'” the green-robed phantom said, “However, you must promise that after you become a deity, if you have the opportunity, you must go to my homeland ‘Frostwind Star’ and find a suitable being to become an Inner Sect Disciple and do your best to teach them to become a Demigod.”

“Frostwind Star?” Li Yuan’s eyes revealed a hint of confusion.

What place is that? He had never heard of it!

Keep in mind, with Li Yuan’s level of access, he had interactions with many of the Foreign Civilizations around the Seven Star Civilization… but he had never heard of Frostwind Star or the Frostwind Star planet.

“Elder, what if I can’t find Frostwind Star?” Li Yuan couldn’t help asking.

“It’s been less than ten thousand years; the possibility of my homeland being obliterated is quite low…” The green-robed phantom pondered for a moment: “If by then you truly can’t find it, it won’t be considered a breach of your promise.”

Li Yuan nodded slightly; this promise was indeed something to consider.

It was a requirement that he would have to fulfill after becoming a deity, and right now, he was only Second Rank, still very far from becoming a deity.

Moreover, it wasn’t mandatory.

“Elder, what about a Direct Disciple?” Li Yuan asked.

“If you wish to become a Direct Disciple, you must agree to, after becoming a deity, go to Frostwind Star, protect it for a thousand years, and either produce ten Demigod disciples or cultivate one Divine Being,” the green-robed phantom looked at Li Yuan with a hint of expectation, “Then, you will obtain all my residual Star Techniques, a hefty gift, a Visualization Method of the Divine Being, and a ‘Spiritual Imprint.'”

Upon hearing this,

Li Yuan finally understood why Qiu Bingzun had reminded him early on to be cautious about wanting to become a Direct Disciple of an Alien God.

There’s no such thing as a free lunch.

The condition was too harsh.

Protect for a thousand years? He had only lived for so long, and a Fifth Order Divine Being could only live for five thousand years.

As for cultivating a Divine Being? That was even more of a pipe dream. Even if he became powerful in the future, the life on Frostwind Star would need to have extremely high talent… Divine Beings are not that easy to come into existence.

“Elder, may I see the Star Techniques you’ve left behind?” Li Yuan asked.

“You may.” The green-robed phantom nodded, waving his hand and forming a light screen phantom beside himself.

It displayed a series of names and descriptions of Star Techniques.

“Nine Layers Star Technique,” Heavenly Wind Star Veins True Explanation”: The first six layers can enhance the cultivator’s compatibility with the Wind Law, one of the strongest in the dimensional rivers…

“Seventh Layer Star Technique,” Phantom Body Thousand Lights”…

“Seventh Layer Star Technique…”

…

Densely packed with over ten Star Techniques, among them one Nine Layers Star Technique, four Seventh Layer Star Techniques, and the rest were Fifth and Sixth Layers Star Techniques.

“Nine Layers Star Techniques,” Heavenly Wind Star Veins True Explanation”!” Li Yuan’s eyes lit up, immediately noticing this particular Star Technique,

From its name to the description that followed, Li Yuan immediately judged that this must be the “Supreme Auxiliary Star Technique” of the Wind Vein, presumably on the same level as the “True Solution of the Earth Star Vein.”

This is it!

Li Yuan already had his heart set on it.

“Young man, are you willing to become my Direct Disciple?” the Wind System Alien God looked at him with anticipation.

He was aware that Li Yuan had passed the Tenth Layer tests, and such an exceptional genius was hard to come by.

“Elder, a thousand years is too long,” Li Yuan shook his head, “I am willing to become your Inner Sect Disciple.”

The treatment for a Direct Disciple was indeed very tempting, but the requirements were too stringent, and after a brief consideration, Li Yuan chose to give it up.

All the remaining Star Techniques? Only that Supreme Star Technique attracted him.

Spiritual Imprint? Could it match up to the Martial God Inheritance?

Significant gift? Could it surpass what the Ancient Torch Divine had left for him?

If Li Yuan’s talent was lesser, born in a weaker civilization, or if he hadn’t received the Ancient Torch Divine Inheritance… perhaps he would have agreed.

But with the external cultivation conditions Li Yuan already had, the entire legacy of this Wind System Alien God was just icing on the cake.

The cost-benefit ratio was just too low.

“All right.” The green-robed phantom’s eyes flashed with a hint of disappointment,

But he understood that a supreme genius like Li Yuan would almost certainly not agree to such harsh demands.

However, he was just a spiritual imprint left by the Wind System Alien God and had to obey the commands left by the Wind System Alien God.

“Alien God Envoy,” the blue-robed phantom looked towards Qiu Bingzun at his side.

“Spirit Gun, words alone are not proof, you must swear an oath to the great laws of the Dao and make a divine oath,” Qiu Bingzun said with a smile, “Only then will the Alien God believe you.”

“Divine oath?” Li Yuan felt puzzled.

“Powerful cultivators study the Law of the Great Dao, and the Law of the Great Dao has its own primordial will, we are all like children of the Law of the Great Dao…” Qiu Bingzun said with a smile, “To swear an oath to the Law of the Great Dao is to be bound by it.”

“Of course, the prerequisite is that the oath-maker steps into the threshold of the law and lights the divine fire with the Law of the Great Dao… only then will the oath take effect.”

“An ordinary mundane oath is useless,” Qiu Bingzun said, “Like you now, having yet to step into the threshold of the law, there are no constraints… but if one day you become a divine being, you will naturally feel the constraints in the unseen.”

“If you go against your true intent and don’t fulfill it, you will naturally suffer from the backlash of the oath,” Qiu Bingzun explained.

Li Yuan suddenly realized that there was such a method.

However, according to Elder Qiu, it seemed that only a divine being making a divine oath would be bound.

“This is your oath,” Qiu Bingzun waved his hand, and a screen of light coalesced around Li Yuan’s form, displaying many strange characters.

To Li Yuan’s surprise, although he did not recognize these characters, he could understand their meaning without hindrance.

“This is the ‘Heaven and Earth Script,’ originating from the mysteries of heaven and earth, anyone who has reached the level of true intent in their comprehension of heaven and earth can understand it,” Qiu Bingzun explained, “In the vast dimensions of the river of time, the script of Star Civilization is the universal language.”

Li Yuan understood.

After reviewing the oath twice and confirming there were no errors, Li Yuan immediately spoke out, “I, with the Law of the Great Dao as my witness, swear that if I become an Inner Disciple of the Ancient Serpent Divine and receive the promised treasures, once I become a divine being in the future…”

The oath was established.

But Li Yuan did not feel any change in himself, yet the blue-robed phantom already revealed a smile.

“The oath is complete, and when you step into the threshold of the law in the future, you will feel the response,” Qiu Bingzun said with a smile.

“Mhm,” Li Yuan nodded, and then lightly bowed to the blue-robed figure, “Teacher.”

“No need for formalities,” the blue-robed phantom shook his head, “Firstly, I am not truly the Ancient Serpent Divine, and secondly, this is essentially a transaction, merely a nominal mentor-apprentice relationship.”

“I can only wish you success in lighting the divine fire and achieving divinity in the future,” the blue-robed phantom said, his eyes complex as he looked at Li Yuan.

Suddenly, his figure thunderously dissipated.

“Huh?”

“He left?” Li Yuan was stunned, the gifts hadn’t been given to him yet!!

“Don’t worry, the treasure will be passed on to you by me,” Qiu Bingzun said with a smile, “As an Inner Sect Disciple, the gift bestowed to you is a Ten Directions Five Elements Divine Crystal.”

“Ten Directions?” Li Yuan nodded slightly, that would be worth a million Seven Stars Points.

“In addition, you have just witnessed the Star Technique of the Wind System Alien God, which one do you want?” Qiu Bingzun asked.

“Heavenly Wind Star Veins True Explanation,” Li Yuan said without hesitation.

“That’s a Ninth Layer Star Technique, and it’s just a supplementary Star Technique,” Qiu Bingzun’s eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, “You have already cultivated the Supreme Body Refining Star Technique, and your talent in the Earth Vein should be even higher, fully capable of cultivating the ‘True Solution of the Earth Star Vein.'”

“This ‘Heavenly Wind Star Veins True Explanation’ won’t be as effective as other Sixth Layer Star Techniques if you can’t cultivate it to a high level of proficiency. Are you sure you still want it?” Qiu Bingzun couldn’t help but advise.

“Yes,” Li Yuan nodded.

Other powerful practitioners might worry about insufficient strength in their star meridians, but he was not afraid; compared to the combat power provided by the Slaughter Star Technique, these types of supportive Star Techniques were far more important.

Without the ‘True Solution of the Earth Star Vein,’ he couldn’t possibly have progressed so quickly in the Earth Vein.

“Okay,” seeing Li Yuan’s determination, Qiu Bingzun no longer advised and waved his hand, which brought forth a thin storage treasure.

It flew towards Li Yuan.

Li Yuan extended his hand to receive it, sensing with his divine sense, the storage treasure had not been bounded yet, and the inner space was not large.

Aside from the neatly arranged Ten Directions Five Elements Divine Crystals, there were two orbs emitting mysterious fluctuations.

“Divine Visualization Method? Star Technique?” Li Yuan sensed briefly, confirmed they were correct, and felt joy in his heart.

The extra Divine Visualization Method, upon return, he could also find a way to exchange them for other cultivation necessities.

One could say,

that his total gain from this trip was immense.

“Do you wish to go to the Inner Core Realm now or later?” Qiu Bingzun asked.

“Is there any difference?” Li Yuan asked.

“Not much of a difference,” Qiu Bingzun shook his head, “The Inner Core Realm is left by the Heavenly Serpent Divine, your talent and strength are sufficiently fiendish, there will be no further tests… I only remind you, it’s still a matter of choice.”

“If you want to gain something, you have to give something in return,” Qiu Bingzun looked at Li Yuan.
