High-Level Martial Era

Chapter 1208: Chapter 568: The First Candidate! Tai Ying (6K)

Rustle~ As Li Yuan ascended step by step, the invisible force enveloping his entire body gradually grew stronger.

Strands of purple light shone down from the higher parts of the mountain, acting upon Li Yuan.

“This purple light, is it targeting the divine body?” Li Yuan sensed the peculiarity of the purple light, faintly penetrating to the life origin, pressing down on the divine body.

It was as if an ordinary person, moving bricks for a long time, would experience muscle soreness and swelling.

At this moment, under the effect of the purple light, Li Yuan noticed that his divine body also felt a slight sense of fatigue.

Buzz~ Moreover, an intangible force was pressing on Li Yuan’s soul, causing him to endure increasingly strong pressure.

“What means is this mountain using?” Li Yuan was both shocked and curious in his heart.

Although he faced some pressure, how powerful was Li Yuan’s strength now? The divine body was already top-tier among the heavenly divine.

As for the soul pressure, following the transformation of the divine body, in the past few days, up till now, Li Yuan’s spiritual will had been constantly growing stronger under the nurturing of the divine body.

Ascend!

Step onto the higher steps.

Even if the double pressure on the divine body and soul grew stronger, the purple light became more noticeable, Li Yuan’s speed did not slow down in the slightest…

Li Yuan could not fly, but his walking speed was extremely fast, and soon he had traversed tens of thousands of kilometers.

“Soul pressure getting stronger? Has it started to change?”

“The illusionary realm has appeared? I’ll have to see just how strong the Heart Dream God Emperor’s test for the True God Realm is, what kind of soul techniques could possibly stop me?” Li Yuan’s will was like a long spear, endlessly sharp and utterly fearless.

This was exactly how Li Yuan used to be, when there was a goal in his heart, it was unshakable, he must resolutely go for it.

During those hundreds of years in the Spirit Tree Universe, in pursuit of self, and to save the Pantheon, he also continually transformed his spiritual will.

“What the heart desires.”

“The journey of life, propelled by the seven emotions and six desires.”

“In this life of mine, I don’t seek no regrets in my heart, only no remorse.” Li Yuan long understood what he sought.

Understanding his true self made his will extremely strong.

Relying on the powerful soul origin, ordinary illusionary realms, soul pressures would find it nearly impossible to shake him.

Silently.

Li Yuan had ascended higher and higher, over thirty thousand kilometers from the ground, which also meant he had completed one-third of the entire journey.

Completing one-third also meant that even if he didn’t succeed this time, he would still receive a gift.

But Li Yuan himself remained indifferent: “I haven’t even reached halfway, it’s nothing to be proud of.”

…

In the extreme distance, a purple beast had been watching Li Yuan.

“So easily, he passed a third?” The purple beast was somewhat surprised: “He’s just newly reached the True God Realm! Could he really pass two-thirds in one go?”

One must know, of the previous thirty-five candidates, the vast majority only passed a third, and those who could complete two-thirds were few and far between… Yes, Li Yuan’s talent is indeed extremely high.

But this stage of the trial tests not just the divine body, and law comprehension, but also the soul will.

“A strong divine body would make his soul extremely strong, but he has only recently broken through, his soul should not have grown to its peak.”

“But will, cannot be nurtured by a strong divine body alone.” The purple beast knew this very well: “This little fellow who has been cultivating for hundreds of years seems to have a will that can compare with those heavenly divine who have cultivated for hundreds of thousands of years.”

The purple beast, with a high vision, had been observing Li Yuan.

Things like life breath and soul strength could be perceived… Only the will was hard to fathom.

Time passed.

Li Yuan’s pace showed no signs of slowing down… In the blink of an eye, he was over five hundred thousand kilometers from the ground.

The journey, already more than half!

“Could he really directly reach two-thirds?” A hint of amazement flashed in the purple beast’s eyes.

Previous candidates.

Like those two Ten-Star Meridian ones, who trained for thousands of years, exhausted all methods just to barely reach a height of seven hundred thousand kilometers from the ground… Confirming no hope of controlling the Ancient Universe, only then did they break through to become heavenly divine.

One could say.

Before this, no true god had been able to reach the summit… Therefore the purple beast knew the difficulty of reaching the summit well.

“Such strong soul will.”

“His divine body is unparalleled in the Cosmic Realm, unmatched… as long as he trains for a while longer, the probability of success will be ninety-nine percent.” In the purple beast’s heart, a flicker of anticipation finally arose: “Once he succeeds, I also have hope for freedom.”

As the Cosmic Holy Spirit.

The purple beast knew well that the Ancient Universe was a grand gift prepared by the Heart Dream God Emperor for the ’candidates’.

But over the past billion years, never had a candidate truly taken control of the Ancient Universe, so it, as the Cosmic Holy Spirit, naturally could only be trapped inside the Ancient Universe, with no hope of touching the outside world.

“Height, already reached six hundred thousand kilometers.”

“Li Yuan’s speed has slowed down.” The purple beast kept watching, sensing Li Yuan’s height.

Evidently, reaching this point, the pressure Li Yuan was enduring was also gradually approaching his limit.

…

Above the mountainside.

This area was already completely shrouded in mist, and Li Yuan’s divine sense couldn’t be mobilized, even spatial fluctuations were completely suppressed, he could only use the ’Eye of Heavenly Mysterious’ to see a thousand miles ahead and behind.

His gaze incredibly firm, like a divine spear emitting a sharp aura, resisting the soul pressure surging like a tide, the illusionary realm assault.

As if.

A group of heavenly divine were simultaneously unleashing soul attacks on him.

“My soul has grown to level 77 and is still continually transforming.” Li Yuan murmured to himself: “Those True Gods of Ten-Star Meridian who trained for thousands of years might not be stronger than me solely in terms of soul will.”

“But my divine body, seemed unable to withstand the pressure brought by this purple light… This pressure targets not just the divine body, but also the divine heart and life origin…” Li Yuan noticed something amiss.
