"Han Xing Supreme!"
"Abyssal Will!" A frightening killing intent flashed through Li Yuanās eyes, a terrifying killing intent hidden deep within his heart, unable to be contained, deeper than the mountains, deeper than the sea.
From the end of the Cataclysm of the Sacrificial World.
Witnessing the hometown Cosmic Realm face a great calamity, countless Divine Kings die, even seeing the Master and Chaos God Emperor go to their death, Li Yuanās heart harbored a dreadful killing intent.
Previously.
Li Yuan never dared to claim he could destroy Han Xing Supremeās hometown Cosmic Realm in the future... but now, even when faced with the entire Abyss, he saw a glimmer of hope in defeating them.
"Everything in this world will be carried out according to my will." Li Yuan murmured, imbued with an unshakeable will.
With strength, carry out oneās own will!
"Master"
"Just wait a while longer, I will use the entire Abyss to commemorate you all, this day wonāt be far off" Li Yuan softly closed his eyes and continued to focus on his cultivation.
...
As time flows by, another year and more passes, and on this day.
Whoosh!
An invisible ripple passed, an invisible force born, Li Yuan instantly sensed it, glanced ahead to see countless golden threads forming not far away, coalescing into a golden figure.
"Heart Origin, greetings to Senior Jin Jiu." Li Yuan stood, respectfully bowing.
"You have progressed greatly in the two thousand years since weāve met." Jin Jiuās aura was ethereal, his gaze at Li Yuan complex, his voice seemed to emanate from beyond endless space-time.
"There has been some progress, but I must thank Senior for your achievements." Li Yuan said: "If not for your help in the past, I wouldnāt be where I am today."
"It wasnāt really help, what you have gained is due to your own efforts." Jin Jiu said: "I came today, you should know the reason."
"I know." Li Yuan nodded: "The two thousand years term has ended."
Li Yuan pondered, though his progress was immense and he was confident, who could know what the second advancement standard of the Cosmic Ball would be?
"Yes."
"According to the original agreement, if you reach the second advancement standard, you may choose one Sub-Saintās Ultimate Skill." Jin Jiu smiled at Li Yuan: "So, I have come."
Li Yuanās heart stirred.
"However, though you can gain one ultimate skill, the specific skill cannot be chosen by you." Jin Jiu said softly.
Li Yuan froze for a moment, couldnāt help but say: "Cannot choose? Senior, have I not reached the second advancement standard?"
In just two thousand years, having progressed so much, if he hadnāt met the advancement standard, Li Yuan couldnāt imagine how high this so-called advancement standard must be.
"Thatās not the case." Jin Jiu sighed lightly: "You are indeed extremely outstanding, too outstanding, your progress far exceeds the second advancement standard, if a standard was imposed, in the Holy Realm, with your talent, you could be directly crowned king."
"Crowned king in the Holy Realm?" Li Yuan was increasingly puzzled and grew curious.
Holy Realm? What place is that?
In an instant, Li Yuan recalled two thousand years ago when he first met Jin Jiu, who mentioned some information about his time-space being the Domain of Saintās Fall.
However, at that time, Jin Jiu did not elaborate.
"Yes."
"If you only reached the first advancement standard while still in the Domain of Saintās Fall, many things would not be necessary to discuss with you." Jin Jiu said: "However, your talent is simply incredible, even in the Domain of Saintās Fall, in the future, we will likely meet, hence, in adherence to the highest eternal order, you will be conveyed some information this time."
Li Yuanās eyes brightened.
He now understood that behind Jin Jiu was indeed a similar powerful force as the Immortal Divine Hall or the Abyss, a creator of great influence, an Eternal Being.
Moreover, it seems due to his showcased talent, he has been acknowledged by the Eternal Being.
Specifically coming to convey information.
"Please speak, Senior." Li Yuan said respectfully: "I am all ears."
"Yes."
"Firstly, regarding your ultimate skill, according to the Eternal Being, he will personally bestow a skill suited for you." Jin Jiu said: "Heart Source Quasi-Saint, please prepare yourself."
"Now?" Li Yuanās heart was shocked.
Is eternity about to descend?
No time for Li Yuan to think more.
Boom~
Space-time twisted, the surrounding scenes underwent dramatic changes, countless strange streams of light flickered, Li Yuan immediately sensed it was all the power of space-time.
In the next instant!
Wow~ a gray-robed figure appeared not far from him.
Li Yuan held his breath as he looked at the figure, whose attire and appearance were very peculiar, although humanoid, he seemed as if clothes clung to his skin, gray robes had heavy folds.
However, appearance was secondary, traveling through the Vast Universe, perusing countless books and information, Li Yuan had encountered myriad races and life forms, known numerous civilizationsā rise and fall.
The most crucial thing was the aura.
He stood there, seemingly eternal and unextinguished since ancient times, as the source of all, vast and majestic, giving Li Yuan the same feeling as when he first saw the āEternal Divine Palace,ā yet lacking that supreme, terrifying dignity, instead there was an embracing feeling, encompassing all, bearing all.
"Eternal, this is Heart Source Quasi-Saint." Jin Jiu stood by respectfully.
"Heart Source, greetings Senior." Li Yuan also bowed in salute.
"Heart Source? Such a Heart Source, in cosmic life a peerless genius like you can be born, is not only your fortunate event but also a fortunate event for the entire faction." The gray-robed figure smiled, his voice gentle, giving an infinite sense of closeness.
Li Yuan was increasingly puzzled, faction?
Do Eternal Beings also have factions and fight among themselves?
"I have limited time, even a wisp of consciousness descending, will be suppressed by the Supreme Source, the Cosmic Rules also retaliate against me." The gray-robed figure said: "Iāll focus on the main points."
