Chapter 798 Farewell to the God Lord! Numbered Treasures

"No need for such formalities, everyone," Li Yuan said with a cupped hand and a smile. Although these people in front of him were just ordinary divine guards, as long as they were members of the Immortal Temple, they were all very special.

“You flatter me, sir. The commander has given us a special order to be respectful.” One of the red-armored guards said with a smile, “This way, sir. The commander has been waiting for a long time.”

"Mm." Li Yuan nodded.

Immediately, the crimson-armored divine guard, carrying Li Yuan, transformed into two streaks of light and plunged into the clouds, quickly disappearing from the sight of the many quasi-saints in the plaza.

"Who is that?"

"Even the Crimson Armor Guards are so respectful?"

"Before I came, according to the intelligence given by the Emperor Realm, the Crimson Armored Divine Guards of the Immortal Temple were of extremely high status and should never be offended. How could they be so respectful as to bow to me?" The many Quasi-Saints in the square were secretly surprised. The scene before them was beyond their imagination.

“He is a low-level Quasi-Saint, not an Emperor Realm expert. We are in the Second Immortal Temple... Could he be a Quasi-Saint of the Heart Source?” A few Quasi-Saints also made their guesses.

Looking out over the vast universe.

Aside from the legendary Heart Source Quasi-Saint, which low-level Quasi-Saint could have such prestige?

……

Li Yuan followed the Crimson Armored Guards, flying towards higher levels of the Immortal Temple, and soon met some familiar faces.

"Commander, Lord Xinyuan has arrived," the Crimson Armor Guard said respectfully.

"Commander Cang'er, it's been a long time." Li Yuan smiled and said. The visitor was none other than Commander Cang'er of the Second Immortal Temple.

The commander of the Divine Guards holds a position second only to the Divine Lord.

"Brother Xinyuan, I didn't expect to meet you again so soon." Commander Cang'er couldn't help but exclaim, "I admire you! Even though I am in the Immortal World, I have heard about the events of the Ancient Ruins of the Long River, including the slaying of the Sovereign and the stirring up of the Heart Demon Heavenly River."

"You flatter me, Commander," Li Yuan said with a slight smile.

“No need to be modest,” Commander Cang Er said. “The God Lord is already waiting for you. Come with me.”

"Hmm." Li Yuan pondered as he followed Commander Cang Er to fly to higher levels of the Immortal Temple.

As agreed by both parties, Li Yuan would return to the Immortal Temple before the Abyss Sea Sacrifice began to collect the many rare materials needed to open the Immortal Lake.

But how long has it been since we last met?

It's been less than two hundred years.

Li Yuan's visit to the Immortal Temple was initiated by the temple through a direct message sent by the Immortal Token.

moment--

Li Yuan and Cang Er arrived at the vast palace at the highest point of the temple. At the end of the palace, on the golden throne, the golden-robed god was sitting leisurely.

"Lord God, the Quasi-Saint of Heart Source has arrived," Commander Cang Er said respectfully, then stepped aside.

“Xinyuan greets the Divine Lord.” Li Yuan bowed in greeting.

"No need for formalities." The golden-robed god waved his hand, and an invisible force lifted Li Yuan up. He smiled and said, "The first god-king in the history of the universe is destined to become a peerless genius who is also a quasi-saint... We can treat each other as equals."

Commander Cang'er, standing to the side, secretly sighed, for none of the supreme beings who had come to pay homage to the God of God throughout history had ever received such treatment.

"Destined to become a sub-saint? The divine master is too kind." Li Yuan shook his head and said.

“This is not my opinion,” said the golden-robed god, “but the Immortal Mirror. It predicts countless future timelines… In more than 99% of the future timelines, you will become a Quasi-Saint. I believe in the judgment of the Immortal Mirror.”

Li Yuan seemed to be deep in thought.

Those who reach the God-King level are theoretically capable of predicting the future, especially those who have opened up the Path of Destiny, whose predictive abilities are even more powerful... The Immortal Heavenly Mirror, as a supreme treasure left behind by the creator of the Immortal World, is absolutely extremely powerful.

The Immortal Decrees obtained by powerful beings throughout history were all formed from the Immortal Heavenly Mirror.

but!

The future has not yet happened and is difficult to predict.

"The more powerful and special a life form it is, the more difficult it is to deduce... Can the Immortal Heavenly Mirror deduce my future clearly?" Li Yuan was skeptical.

It's not that Li Yuan thinks he's special.

Instead, they felt that the 'Eternal Divine Palace' was special, and that the Immortal Mirror could deduce their relationship with the Eternal Divine Palace.
Despite the turmoil in his mind, Li Yuan remained outwardly calm: "Then I will take advantage of the auspicious words of the deity."

“Quasi-Saint of Heart Source, your cultivation time is precious, so I won’t keep you any longer and will get straight to the point.” The golden-robed god said, “In such a long time, the other eternal organizations should have already met you.”

“Yes.” Li Yuan did not deny it.

In fact, neither the Heavenly Demon Palace nor the Star Spirit Palace has made any moves in the past six months.

The only one who wanted to see his own Hun Tian Ancient Ruins was left standing aside.

“I don’t know the conditions offered by the Ancient Ruins of Hun Tian, ​​the Star Spirit Palace, and the Heavenly Demon Holy Palace,” said the Golden-Robed God Lord. “But the reason I invited you here is simply to tell you that no matter what their conditions are, you must first obtain them while you are alive.”

"God, what do you mean?" Li Yuan's heart stirred.

“A Quasi-Saint of the Heart Source.” Commander Cang Er spoke up at the right moment: “The Abyss holds the highest authority in the place where the universe originates, and the Abyss Sea has brought immense benefits to the Abyss… This is something that both the Immortal Temple and the other three great eternal organizations are extremely envious of.”

"Your strength surpasses that of all the previous god-kings, giving us hope of being replaced."

"But one thing is undeniable: the Abyss is incredibly powerful!" Commander Cang Er said solemnly.

Li Yuan listened attentively.

No one has ever doubted the power of the Abyss, just as there are six great abyssal demon caves in the Immortal World... but no one has ever heard of the Immortal Temple being able to establish a stable stronghold in the Abyss.

“Once you succeed in the deep sea of ​​the abyss, the will of the abyss will definitely retaliate, and as the one who initiated it, you will be the first to bear the brunt.” Commander Cang Er said solemnly, “At that time, apart from the Immortal Temple, the other three great eternal organizations… probably won’t be able to protect you.”

Threat?

Did they want to lower the price? That was the first thought that arose in Li Yuan's mind.

"Does the Commander mean I can only choose the Temple of Immortality?" Li Yuan asked with a half-smile.

“Xinyuan, don’t misunderstand, Cang’er was indeed reminding you.” The golden-robed god lord smiled and said, “Rest assured, the Immortal Temple always acts fairly. Your strength has made extraordinary progress… Everyone wants to invite you! I will naturally not be stingy.”

"Except for the original conditions and the treasures given, nothing will change."

“On behalf of the Immortal Temple, I can bestow upon you another top-tier imperial weapon, as well as 30 billion cubic meters of Eternal Crystals,” the golden-robed god-lord said directly.

Talking!

With a flick of his hand, the golden-robed deity conjured three imperial weapons radiating a vast and boundless aura in the void.

A golden battle armor floated there, as immovable as a miniature universe, clearly an imperial weapon with the Dao of the World as its core.

A battle suit engulfed in flames, its aura extremely restrained, yet giving Li Yuan an extremely dangerous feeling.

The last item was a black spear, its blade engraved with exquisite patterns, emanating an overwhelming aura of destruction and boundless sharpness.

"You may choose one of the three top-tier imperial weapons," the golden-robed god said softly.

Li Yuan was shocked.

To be honest, this price exceeded his expectations. After all, these were all given away for free. Although he was strong, he had not yet reached the level of a ruler. Whether he could succeed in the end was unknown.

Especially the last black spear, which made Li Yuan envious... If he had such a top-level imperial weapon, it would definitely increase his physical attack power by a lot.

But Li Yuan remained unmoved.

Negotiation, you know!
Whoever loses their composure first will suffer... Moreover, after obtaining the Void Realm Map, Li Yuan has lost his allure for top-tier imperial weapons; at least, the three top-tier imperial weapons before him cannot move him.

"My Lord, if you were to bestow upon me all three top-tier imperial weapons, I would not hesitate for a moment longer," Li Yuan said half-jokingly.

“Xinyuan, you are too greedy,” the golden-robed god said, shaking his head.

“To directly bestow a top-tier imperial weapon upon a Quasi-Saint of Heart Source is already an incredibly incredible thing. This is the first time in trillions of years. The God Lord has already taken a huge risk.” Commander Cang Er couldn’t help but say, “If you fail, even the God Lord will be severely punished.” “The conditions offered by other Eternal Organizations could never be more generous,” Commander Cang Er said.

Li Yuan smiled.

He remained silent.

"also."

“Quasi-Saint of the Heart Source, consider me your friend.” The golden-robed god suddenly sighed, and with a wave of his hand, he put away all three top-tier imperial weapons.

"I'll take the risk."

“This treasure is very suitable for you, but it is extremely precious. In principle, you should make great contributions to the Temple of Immortality in order to have any hope of obtaining it… If you are willing to accept it, you must not hesitate any longer.” The golden-robed god said in a deep voice, “If you still hesitate, then I cannot offer a higher price.”

“Let us see what the quasi-saint of the heart source has to say.”

The golden-robed deity pointed towards the void.

boom!
In the vast void, a dark red spear appeared out of thin air. It was a million kilometers long and hung horizontally in the void. Its surface was mottled with marks of swords and chisels, indicating that it had been through countless bloody battles. There were also a lot of bloodstains on the spear.

As it appeared, an overwhelming killing intent also spread out, as if it wanted to destroy everything in the world, enough to make any Emperor-level expert change color.

"Hmm?" Li Yuan's eyes lit up.

Li Yuan was captivated at first sight.

"This spear, though it is only a top-tier imperial weapon."

"But it is special. It was personally placed in the treasure vault by the creator of the immortal world, and it has a clear serial number." The golden-robed god said slowly, "In the treasure vault, its value is equal to that of other eternal weapons."

"However, it is also extremely difficult to master."

“Quasi-Saint of Heart Source, are you willing?” The golden-robed god looked at Li Yuan.

Numbered treasures?

Li Yuan understood that the Golden-Robed God Lord had already brought out his most treasured possession, which had been mentioned in the information provided by the small tomb.

The treasures of the Immortal Temple are divided into two categories. One category is unnumbered, which are slowly refined by the Immortal Temple over a long period of time. The Immortal Temple can even refine top-level imperial weapons.

Another type is numbered treasures... Each one was left behind by the Eternal Realm. The loss of one of them means a real loss for the Immortal Temple, which cannot be replenished.

"willing."

"If I still refuse, then I'm being ungrateful," Li Yuan said with a slight smile, though he was indeed satisfied.

“Alright, then you can accept it,” said the golden-robed deity.

Li Yuan immediately reached out his hand.

His palm grew rapidly, and he grasped the enormous divine spear. The moment his fingertips touched the spear shaft, he felt an incredibly terrifying intent sweep over his entire body.

Boom! His consciousness instantly vanished.

"War! War! War!"

"War!" In the endless dark void, there were huge and different celestial bodies, and countless powerful beings were engaged in fierce battles.

Each of these powerful individuals exuded an incredibly terrifying aura.

Guild wars!
It was incredibly brutal! Among them, the most dazzling was a powerful figure wielding a long spear. His body was enormous, and every time his spear swept across the sky, it would cause the void to tremble and cause a large number of enemy powerhouses to fall. He was invincible.

Suddenly! A light appeared in the dim world! A pure white holy light! This light was outside endless space and time one moment, and the next moment it had pierced through the entire battlefield.

It also pierced through the peerless expert wielding the spear, causing his body to explode instantly, with countless drops of divine blood splattering onto the divine spear.

Until then.

The light finally revealed itself at the end of the endless void; it was an enormous divine pillar, its surface engraved with countless intricate Dao patterns.

"kill!"

"kill!"

"Kill!" The blood-soaked divine spear erupted with terrifying will, its spear light reappearing, traversing heaven and earth. Though its body was dead, its battle spirit remained.

"What a pity!" A distant sigh echoed through the heavens and earth, as if it had been transmitted from the highest realm.

……

"Clang!" Strands of spear light burst forth, spreading throughout the void, their destructive aura surging wildly, their terrifying killing intent completely dissipating.

call!
Li Yuan gripped the divine spear tightly, his eyes regaining their clarity, filled with deep shock: "That light that pierces through everything... is it the Immortal Pillar of Heaven?"

"Was the one who made the move an Eternal Realm expert?"

At this time.

Li Yuan has completely mastered the imperial weapon before him.

"The name of the gun... Demon Blood?" Li Yuan murmured to himself. He already understood that this imperial weapon must be the spoils of war of the creator of the immortal world.

This name is not the name of the divine spear itself, but a name bestowed by the creator of the immortal world.

"The bloodstains on this gun should be the divine blood of its original owner, but the will was erased by the Eternal Realm, leaving only that terrifying fighting spirit," Li Yuan thought to himself.

He had a feeling that the divine spear before him was probably not a common top-tier imperial weapon, and might even contain secrets.

Otherwise, would an imperial weapon be worthy of being specially named by someone from the Eternal Realm?

"This Demon Blood Divine Spear is quite special," the golden-robed god-king sitting on his high throne said softly. "Xinyuan, I hope you will not let it down."

"Thank you, Divine Lord," Li Yuan said, bowing.

"Here's another 300 billion cubic meters of Eternal Crystals, take them all." The golden-robed god-lord flipped his palm, and another storage treasure flew out.

It flew down in front of Li Yuan.

Li Yuan reached out and took it, using his divine sense to see that inside were piles of Eternal Crystals... These Eternal Crystals would also be of great use to Li Yuan.

"Heart Source".

"There's still quite some time before the Abyss Sea Sacrifice begins. I hope you can make further progress." The golden-robed god-lord smiled and said, "I won't keep you any longer. Go back now."

Li Yuan bowed and then followed Commander Cang Er away from the palace.

Shortly after.

Commander Cang Er returned to the palace and respectfully said, "Divine Lord, the true form of the Quasi-Saint of Heart Source has already left the Immortal World."

"Hmm." The God Lord nodded gently: "He must have gained a lot in the Eternal God Palace, and with the assistance of the Demon Blood Divine Spear, he should have a chance to advance further."

"Can the God-King Realm truly rival the Sovereign?" Commander Cang Er sighed inwardly. He naturally understood the God Lord's expectations, but he still found it somewhat unbelievable.

Can even a cosmic practitioner achieve this level?
"Lord God, if he fails, what about the Demon Blood Divine Spear?" Commander Cang Er couldn't help but ask.

“This numbered treasure is one that no Quasi-Saint of the Immortal Temple has ever chosen.” The golden-robed God Lord said calmly, “If we keep leaving it here, I’m afraid no one will choose it even after trillions of years… It’s just right for the Heart Source Quasi-Saint.”

Even if he fails temporarily.

"I believe in his future."

……

Li Yuan's true form returned to the Dream Universe and continued to familiarize himself with this top-tier imperial weapon of unfathomable power. As time passed, he also sensed the special nature of this imperial weapon.

"This is a Dao-aligning Emperor Weapon!" Li Yuan thought to himself.
