High-Level Martial Era

The Mingxu Star Realm is a First Level Star Realm, and once one's life level reaches level 20, they can no longer pass through the Star Realm's entrance and exit.

Based on Li Yuan's third time experiencing Origin Power entering his body,

"Once I raise my Spiritual Awakening Level to 40% and initiate the fourth instance of Origin Power entering my body, I fear my life level will reach 21 or even higher," Li Yuan thought to himself, "Then, I can only spend my whole life in the Mingxu Star Realm."

Other First Rank Martial Artists, once they reach 19.9, may be due to their techniques or insufficient spiritual power, find it difficult to break through to level 20.

But Li Yuan? His spiritual power and techniques were more than sufficient a long time ago, and once his life level reaches the First Order Limit, he would rapidly break through.

Spend a whole lifetime in the Mingxu Star Realm? That was not what Li Yuan wished for.

This was also why Li Yuan greatly admired Liu Jing, for one must have great determination and willpower to willingly stay in such a wilderness.

Moreover,

Li Yuan subconsciously believed that he had greater achievements to accomplish in the future and could play a more significant role for the Seven Star Alliance.

"In the future, if the entrance to the Mingxu Star Realm expands and it becomes a Second Level Star Realm, perhaps it could allow Senior Brother Liu Jing and the others to return home," a thought suddenly passed through Li Yuan's mind.

The level of a Star Realm is not static; expansion from a First Level Star Realm to a Second Level Star Realm is quite common.

Just like the Rob Sea Star Realm within the Xia Country territory, which has been in constant warfare.

Li Yuan knew that the entrance area of the Rob Sea Star Realm was becoming increasingly unstable, showing a tendency to become the second Third Level Star Realm on Blue Star. And this was why Xia Country had been stationing a heavy military presence there year-round.

"Although I don't dare to increase it to 40%, in the coming period, I should seek opportunities to kill more members of the Alien Race and strive to raise my Spiritual Awakening Level to around 37%," Li Yuan thought to himself.

Not increasing it to 39% was because he needed to leave some leeway.

To avoid any unexpected accidents.

"Moreover,"

"With a thought, my mind can merge with heaven and earth, drawing in the forces of the world to nourish my body, which will greatly increase the efficiency of my cultivation of the 'All Heavens' Stars,'. Even without Origin Power entering my body, a single month at the shortest or two at the longest, would be enough to raise my Physical Quality to 19.9," Li Yuan's eyes shimmered brightly.

It sounded as though the speed of improvement was similar to before.

But one must know that the standard difference in Fist Strength from 15.0 to 16.0 is 6,000 kilograms.

From 19.0 to 19.9, however, the standard difference in Fist Strength is 20,000 kilograms.

As one advances in their Life Level, the difference increasingly becomes exponential.

..."For a genius like Senior Brother Jin, with the best external conditions for cultivation, it still took until his junior year to become a Prime Warrior. This is the reason why," Li Yuan gently closed his eyes, "For others, cultivation is like climbing uphill, the further you go, the slower you get."

"But for me, it's like descending downhill, getting faster and faster."

Hum~ With a single thought,

Li Yuan's immensely powerful spiritual power sensed his entire body, placing itself in a vast and boundless space, where within the endless starry sky, there were a few points of light.

That was—Life Star space.

"With Spiritual Guidance, I awakened the first Perfect Star Vein," Li Yuan's spirit spread out, his heart completely calm, sensing the vast and infinite Life Star space, "But to become a Flying Heaven level, at least three Star Meridians must be awakened."

"With spiritual power at level 30, the upper limit for Spiritual Awakening Level can increase to 40%. To raise that limit to 50%, how high must my spiritual power be?"

"The second Spiritual Guidance is far off, and at least for the short term, it's not achievable." Li Yuan was clear about this point.

"I must create my own law."

Hum~

Li Yuan's spiritual power turned into countless thoughts, passing through one spiritual imprint after another, quickly sensing an already perfectly awakened Star Meridian.

Following that,

"Let's continue," Li Yuan's spiritual thoughts ventured through the vast and dark Life Star space, continuing to search for the stars hidden in darkness... not a search without pattern or method.

Li Yuan had read over the seven High Rank Cultivation Methods and also referenced a great deal of pioneering methods from his predecessors.

There are many tricks to finding common Life Stars, and there are subtle connections between many Life Stars.

"Awakening the first Star Meridian is the hardest,"

"Many predecessors who created laws in the history of our Seven Stars human civilization fell at the first step," Li Yuan silently reflected, "But once one Star Meridian is awakened, the difficulty drastically decreases."

The previous Spiritual Guidance indeed greatly helped Li Yuan.

Hum~ Hum~

HIs spiritual thoughts enveloped the vast starry sky, ignoring spatial distances, gradually sensing the existence of each dark star.

"This one is a Life Star."

"This one should be."

"This one is a dead star."

"This one could be," Li Yuan's spiritual thoughts wildly dispersed.

With the experience of his predecessors, the guidance of the first Perfect Star Vein, and help that surpassed the past by tens of times, Li Yuan easily noticed the presence of Life Stars within the Life Star space.

Much easier than normal Law Creators by more than a hundred times.

As time elapsed, Li Yuan kept imprinting spiritual marks on one Life Star after another.

This was the consequence of a strong foundation.

Advanced techniques, strong spiritual power, and perception in the Life Star space hundreds to thousands of times stronger... the probability of successfully creating laws was almost a sure thing.

Of course,

Not all Life Stars are 'active', many seeming nearly indistinguishable from the dead stars on the surface... Li Yuan cautiously chose to give up on those.

But suddenly,

"Hmph~" Li Yuan's spirit violently shook, followed by the sensation of one strand of his spiritual thoughts being destroyed.

This in turn caused his body to tremble faintly.

A sensing mistake.

"That star was actually a Dead Star?" Li Yuan felt helplessly more cautious.

Occasionally sensing wrong was not a major loss for someone with Li Yuan's immense spiritual power.

After a short rest, he could recover.

But continuous mistakes? That would mean a halt to the process.

"If there was Spiritual Guidance, my clarity and range of perception would be even stronger by more than a thousand times," Li Yuan thought to himself, "Countless unawakened Life Stars would be within my perception, without a single error."

The stronger he became, the more Li Yuan felt the immense power and terror of the Mind Spirit Divine Palace.

Such abilities were simply unfathomable.

...

A full hour later.

"This time, I actually lit up over 7000 life stars directly," Li Yuan revealed a hint of a smile, "Before, after cultivating many times, I only awakened a little over a thousand life stars."

Spiritual power reaching the Flying Heaven level indeed represents a fundamental change.

Now, the vast and boundless space of life stars seemed brighter than not long ago, with more stars radiating light amidst the dark starry sky.

However, these newly awakened life stars were mostly chaotic and had not yet formed new star meridians.

"To awaken so many, yet also fail six times."

"My spirit is slightly damaged, and I can't continue to awaken life stars for now," Li Yuan had already stopped, "At this rate, given a bit more time, there's hope to awaken the second star meridian."

On one star meridian, awakening more than 12,960 life stars can begin to form the outline of a star meridian.

In some sense, this was Li Yuan's first step in creating laws by himself.

Mind Spirit Divine Palace? One can rely on it, but must never become dependent on it.

"I must, with all my might, make myself stronger, actively become stronger," Li Yuan thought to himself, "Then, at some critical moments, I'll be able to withstand some of the Mind Spirit Divine Palace's potential tests, and thereby receive even more benefits."

If it weren't for Li Yuan's willpower having transformed to level 30 before, he absolutely wouldn't have withstood the abnormal outburst of the Great Sun Jade Platform.

"The Great Sun Jade Platform."

"The Mind Spirit Divine Palace still hides many secrets," Li Yuan thought, and his spiritual consciousness left the space of the life stars.

...

Inside the cave.

Li Yuan opened his eyes and didn't notice Liu Jing's trace: "It seems that the earlier spiritual oppression has alarmed Senior Liu... He's nearby."

Projecting his divine sense, although it could only sense within a thirty meters radius, he could vaguely perceive up to several hundred meters away.

There was someone with a life force quite strong and a soul breath quite familiar.

It was Liu Jing.

"Under the guidance of divine sense, in front of a Flying Heaven Warrior, an ordinary person trying to disguise themselves as someone else is difficult," Li Yuan silently marveled.

Reaching the Flying Heaven level, one does not simply look at a person's outer appearance and physique anymore.

One will sense the soul's breath as well.

Physique and appearance are easy to disguise, change of clothes, a haircut, pretending to be disabled... all can create great changes.

But how does one disguise a person's soul's breath? At least for First Rank and Second Rank lives, it's quite difficult.

Furthermore, regarding the exposure of 'Flying Heaven level spiritual power' in front of Liu Jing, Li Yuan wasn't too worried deep down.

It would have been exposed sooner or later, besides, the other party was trustworthy.

"Senior Liu has not summoned me, which means the support team from the outpost base has not yet arrived," Li Yuan closed his eyes, "There's no rush."

"I'll try practicing the spiritual secret technique 'Soul Shock' first."

During his time at Kunlun Martial University, Li Yuan learned two major spiritual secret techniques, 'Soul Shock' and 'Spirit Concentration Technique'."

Both were Second Level spiritual secret techniques; the former was for carrying out spiritual attacks, and the latter was for concentrating the spirit to make it more resilient.

However, the effects were minimal.

"Previously my spiritual power was only at level 20 or so, even if I cultivated 'Soul Shock' to perfection, the effects were not significant and it also took a lot of time, so I didn't delve too deep into practicing it," Li Yuan thought to himself, "Now with Flying Heaven level spiritual power, I'll give it another try."

"Let's see what level I can cultivate it to in a short period of time."

"The first step, thoughts like a river, continuous and unending," Li Yuan followed the guidance of the 'Soul Shock' technique, letting his spiritual thoughts gradually change.

Very easy.

Just a few seconds later.

"Is that it?" Li Yuan was stunned, then chuckled, "Makes sense, the spiritual power of a Prime Warrior is not sufficient in quality, it's very hard to be nimble like silk, difficult to control."

"But with Flying Heaven level spiritual power, it can easily be split, like multitasking with one mind on three tasks or even ten tasks... all with ease."

Practicing Second Level spiritual secret technique with Third Rank spiritual power?

It's like an impressive middle school student doing a primary schooler's math problems, even if temporarily stumped, but with a little learning of the problem-solving methods, they rapidly break through.

This is the difference in foundation.

"The second step..." Li Yuan continued to practice.

...

As time passed, about three hours after Li Yuan practiced the 'Soul Shock' secret technique.

"Hmm?" Li Yuan suddenly opened his eyes.

The next second.

Whoosh! A figure clad in blue darted into the cave.

"Senior Liu," Li Yuan greeted with a smile.
Stay connected through m-v l|e'm,p| y- r

"Do you still need to continue cultivating? Another Prime Warrior from the base is about to arrive," Liu Jing asked.

"It's not necessary," Li Yuan smiled, "If senior has any plans, you can implement them, I'm ready to join the battle at any time."

Continue to cultivate?

In the past two hours, Li Yuan had directly brought the 'Soul Shock' spiritual secret technique to the Perfection Level.

He had also practiced the 'Observing the Great Sun Starry Sky Scripture' for another hour, completely eliminating any fatigue.

One could say that Li Yuan's overall strength had reached a new peak.

In the short term, there could be no further improvement.

"That's good," Liu Jing nodded slightly, and couldn't help but ask, "Li Yuan, has your spiritual power really reached Flying Heaven level?"

He was indeed curious.

"Senior should have felt it before," Li Yuan responded with a smile.

"Impressive," Liu Jing was still shocked internally, and then said, "But I suggest you return to Xia Country."

"There's no need for you to participate in the upcoming war with the Tianliang Clan."
