Chapter 997: Chapter 498: First Entry into the Divine Realm (7K)_2
âYes.â Lant Semi-Divine and Lanyue Semi-Divine both replied.
âAdditionally,â
âIf the Seven Stars Plane encounters an external invasion and the Pseudo-God Puppet cannot resolve it,â Li Yuan paused: âGo to Source Star and find the Li family. They may be able to resolve it⊠This secret is privileged information for the Alliance Hierarch and Vice Alliance Hierarch only.â
The two instantly understood that Li Yuan had left the Li family with a stronger backup strategy.
âAnd as for the relationship with the Heavenly Serpent Clan,â Li Yuan continued, âThere are now over forty Pure Blood Sky Snakes in the Myriad Demons Civilization. They have only signed equal contracts⊠In the Mortal Domain, they are destined to be mere visitors.â
âDo not bother the Heavenly Serpent Clan too much,â Li Yuan instructed.
Lant Semi-Divine and Lanyue Semi-Divine nodded; they could both feel Li Yuanâs concern for the civilization.
âSigh.â
âWhen the departure is imminent, one always worries about many things,â Li Yuan said with a smile. âBut enough, leave behind all that must be left⊠Lant Semi-Divine, Lanyue, both of you possess the potential for Becoming Pseudo-God; I hope you wonât slack off in your cultivation.â
âIn the future, there is hope for us to meet again.â Li Yuan said.
âYouâve given us quite enough already,â Lant Semi-Divine remarked with emotion.
Li Yuan nodded slightly; he had specially prepared gifts for Lant Semi-Divine, Lanyue, and others.
But Ascending to God⊠itâs like watching Lie Feng Semi-Divineâs passing helplessly.
The path to Ascend to God must ultimately be walked alone.
No matter how many treasures there are, they are merely auxiliary.
âGo without worry. Youâve done more than Dongfang already. Right now, the entire civilization practically faces no major external threats.â Lant Semi-Divine said.
âI know, both you and Dongfang going to the Divine Realm are taking big risks as well.â
âWe will never slack off,â Lant Semi-Divine pledged seriously. âThe rise of a civilization cannot rely on just a few individuals⊠If something were to happen to you two, what then?â
âAlthough the probability is very low, we still have to plan for it. If it comes to that, the Seven Star Civilization might face extreme peril,â Lant Semi-Divine said.
With two shortcut paths leading to Nine Leaves Nine Mountains, the Seven Star Civilization is destined to attract envy.
âI, Lanyue, and countless Semi-Divines within the civilization will strive with all our might,â Lant Semi-Divine said. âWe will also work to ensure the emergence of more powerful figures within the civilization.â
With the Seven Star Civilizationâs foundation, there is hope for surpassing the Immortal Ruins Civilization⊠If it can continue to maintain dozens of Pseudo-Gods and tens of thousands of Semi-Divines over a long time, then it will be extremely stable.
âGood.â
âDongfang Alliance Leader and I are striving and exploring in the Divine Realm. It can also be considered paving the way for our civilization,â Li Yuan said with a smile. âSomeday, when our civilization nurtures numerous Divines, they can keep venturing to the Divine Realm⊠Ultimately, we can also establish a great Divine Kingdom of our own.â
The rise of a civilization happens this way, through continuous generations of effort.
âŠ
Li Yuan returned to Source Star, where the whole family had long been waiting upon hearing the news.
Compared to over nine years before,
Not only had Li Muhua given birth to another son, but even Li Yuanâs nephew âLi Yuâ had married and had children⊠The entire family had grown even larger.
However, compared to some families in the Seven Star Civilization and even some super families in the Divine Realm, the Li family was still relatively small.
âLittle Yuan, how many years will this journey to the Divine Realm take?â Aunt Chen Hui asked.
She was now a Flying Heaven Warrior herself, naturally privy to much information.
âShort, a hundred years,â Li Yuan considered. âLong, several hundred years, perhaps even over a thousand.â
What awaited in the Divine Realm was unpredictable for Li Yuan.
âBig brother, how far away is the Divine Realm?â Li Qianqian asked, unable to hold back.
âThe Divine Realm exists in a different space-time than the Mortal Domain,â Li Yuan explained. âIf you must know distance⊠tens of billions of light-years.â
That is the distance from Mohe Star Domain to Ziwei Star Region.
As Purple Garment Semi-Divine, Li Yuanâs destination this time was Ziwei Star Region, where Chaos Divine Court is located.
The whole family was shocked.
Tens of billions of light-years? Such a distance was beyond their comprehension.
Too far.
âThe Divine Realm,â Li Muhua said in a low voice. âLegend has it that it is the world of gods⊠containing countless Life Planets, where numerous Divines have emerged⊠Tens of billions of light-years, how long would it even take to get there?â
Li Yuan sat there, sighing inwardly.
Why had he gone all-out to kill Chi Yan True God? Why had he fought so fiercely to secure a stable environment for Seven Star Civilization?
Even after overthrowing Immortal Ruins Civilization, why did he stay for over another year?
For the civilization, and even more so, for his family!
This journey is indeed too distant, with no reliable means of communication⊠If anything happened to the Seven Star Civilization, Li Yuan would be too far to intervene.
Li Yuan didnât want to return someday and face regrets he could not undo.
âAlright.â
âCheer up,â Li Changzhou said, his voice cold but steady. âToday weâre seeing off your big brother, your uncle. Heâs heading to explore a vaster worldâitâs a good thing⊠Why grieve here?â
In the Li family, Li Changzhou held immense authority.
âLittle Yuan, your journey to the Divine Realm is the right decision.â Li Changzhou looked at Li Yuan.
âUncle.â Li Yuan responded with a deep voice.
âI have long seen through it all over these years⊠Our family is where it is today because of you.â Li Changzhou said solemnly. âThe rise of the Seven Star Civilization has been propelled by the relentless effort of extraordinary individuals like you, generation after generation.â
âBe it individuals, families, or civilizationsâthe pursuit of greater strength is indispensable. Without it, destruction is inevitable sooner or later,â Li Changzhou stated.
âAnd you are unique.â
âYour talent is unimaginably high. Your pursuit of Martial Path limits and ultimate cultivation has been your goal for years,â Li Changzhou said. âGo forth without worry, pursue what you must. Do not concern yourself with home⊠Even if a hundred or a thousand years later, we uncle and nephew may never meet again in this lifetime, do not feel sorrow.â
âWe will live well.â
Li Yuan looked toward his uncle.
âYour aunt and I, we raised you and your brothers not to expect you to take care of us in our old age,â Li Changzhou said with a smile. âIt brings us joy to see your accomplishments.â
