Chapter 564: Chapter 300: Morigin Treasury, Seven-Colored Divine Fruit
After the Yuan Emperor’s departure, Chancellor Hu Xiu took over the proceedings.
“Everyone here represents the finest Heavenly Prides of Morigin. You have now discovered the secrets of the stars.”
“Those aspiring to travel to the stars will from today onward become members of the Celestial Strategy Army. In three days, I will guide you to the Morigin Treasure Vault to choose something, before we proceed to the Great Wilderness for Demon Slaying.”
After concluding, Hu Xiu and other Celestial Humans from the Imperial Court took their leave.
Meanwhile, Lu Yun was summoned privately by the Yuan Emperor.
The Yuan Emperor smiled at Lu Yun: “Xiahou Shu briefed me several months ago about your accomplishments in the Demon Suppression Army. But seeing you now, I can say you’re even more excellent than Xiahou Shu described.”
“At the peak of the Rune Seed Realm, you already have the preliminary combat power of a Celestial Human. Even in that place, you will certainly be the foremost Emperor-Level Heavenly Pride.”
“Thank you for your compliment, Your Majesty, but I was merely fortunate in obtaining the body refining technique,” Lu Yun modestly replied. The Yuan Emperor shook his head: “Your aptitude and fortune are what allowed you to cultivate this technique. Not many Heavenly Prides of Morigin have been successful in doing so. Many years ago… well, let’s not get into that.”
Lu Yun looked up to catch a glimpse of melancholy in the all-enigmatic Yuan Emperor’s eyes.
He could not help guessing that the Yuan Emperor might have also desired to cultivate this technique but had ultimately failed.
“Your Majesty, you mentioned Emperor-Level Heavenly Pride earlier. Are there divisions amongst Heavenly Prides?”
A mixture of curiosity and confusion filled Lu Yun’s eyes.
“The Infinite Starry Sky contains countless worlds. Morigin is but a grain in the sea, not even a speck of dust. Of course, amidst this boundlessness, there are countless Heavenly Prides, some of whom can even challenge opponents two or three realms stronger.”
“The ones capable of challenging a realm higher than their own can barely be considered geniuses.”
“Heavenly Prides, on the other hand, have Skip-Two Combat Power,”
“Those with Skip-Three Combat Power are Kings of Heavenly Prides, or King-Level Heavenly Prides.”
“Skip-Four Combat Power corresponds to Emperor-Level Heavenly Prides.”
“Afterward, there are Emperor-Level Heavenly Prides, Saint-Level Heavenly Prides, and Supreme-Level Heavenly Prides.”
The Yuan Emperor paused before speaking with complexity in his eyes, “In the Big Worlds of the starry sky, there are countless Emperor-Level and even Saint-Level Heavenly Prides.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yun was shocked and asked tremblingly, “Your Majesty, doesn’t that mean a Supreme-Level Heavenly Pride would possess Skip-Seven Combat Power?”
As of now, even though he had been cultivating the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength and the Great Sun Undying Golden Body, he barely possessed Skip-Five Combat Power.
The Yuan Emperor shook his head, “Skip-Seven Combat Power is merely the threshold for Supreme-Level Heavenly Prides.”
He looked at Lu Yun and burst into laughter, “You’ve only just begun to cultivate that body refining technique and yet, you possess such tremendous Combat Power. In the future, you could very well reach Skip-Seven Combat Power and become a Supreme-Level Heavenly Pride.”
Among all people, only the Yuan Emperor was aware of just how astonishing the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength that Lu Yun was practicing was.
“Skip-Seven Combat Power?”
Lu Yun mumbled before breaking into a bitter smile.
Though he had not yet reached his limit, the prospect of attaining Skip-Seven Combat Power was immensely challenging.
“Ah, digressing again, let’s fulfil the promise made to you now,” the Yuan Emperor said, “Tell me, which treasure would you like? Saber, spear, sword, halberd, axe, and hook – you can freely choose.”
Lu Yun pondered, “Hmm, I’ll take a saber.”
At his current realm, whatever weapon he wielded would be at his command, but he always felt that a saber was the most dominant.
“A saber?”
The Yuan Emperor let out a smile then waved his robe, a dazzling light flashed, and a treasure saber emanating a bloody aura appeared before Lu Yun.
“This saber is known as Blood Slaughter, a Superior Treasure, once an heirloom of a certain sect. Since it entered the Morigin Treasure Vault, it has not appeared for almost a thousand years. You have amassed a substantial amount of Evil Qi in your body, making you the ideal candidate for this saber.”
“Thank you, Your Majesty,” Lu Yun responded.
Upon receiving the Blood Slaughter Blade, he caressed it fondly before stowing it away.
“Here’s something else – some information about the Infinite Starry Sky. You can go back and read it.”
The Yuan Emperor handed Lu Yun a jade scroll before dismissing him.
…
Having found temporary quarters in the Heavenly Pride Hall, Lu Yun started to examine the jade scroll given to him by the Yuan Emperor.
Upon opening, countless words surfaced before his eyes.
Looking at these words, a deep gleam flashed in Lu Yun’s eyes.
This was the core secret, unknown even to the Patriarchs of the Super Families, apart from the Yuan Emperor.
“So, these are the secrets of the starry sky?”
With anticipation, Lu Yun absorbed all the information contained in the scroll.
Even though the information about the Infinite Starry Sky was meagre, it unveiled the veiled mysteries of the Milky Way for the first time.
The Infinite Starry Sky, otherwise known as All Heavens and Myriad Realms.
How vast are the All Heavens and Myriad Realms?
Infinite and Limitless.
The jade scroll that the Yuan Emperor gifted Lu Yun contained scarcely any information regarding All Heavens and Myriad Realms.
Even the data pertaining to the territorial boundaries of the Human Race was scanty.
According to the available data, there are roughly three thousand Big Worlds in All Heavens and Myriad Realms, each being home to countless Medium and Small Worlds.
Below these Small Worlds are the newly birthed lands.
These newly birthed lands, which had just emerged, would gradually inhabit life after tens to hundreds of thousands of years.
Each one of these emerging lands holds the opportunity to become a saint, attracting countless strong individuals.
