Chapter 586: Rumors! Prepare for Action
Chapter 586: Rumors! Prepare for Action (6K)
"Is it Li Yuan?" Lord Jingu and Lord Guanyun looked at each other.
They are not like Lord Bai Jiang, who can know the list in advance before it is officially announced... but they are not stupid.
The preliminary list was decided eighty years ago, and I have never heard of any changes.
Just now, Lord Bai Jiang was still swearing solemnly.
What about Li Yuan? He was still a semi-god eighty years ago, so the top leaders naturally would not include him in the preliminary list.
therefore.
Even though Lord Bai Jiang didn't say it, Lord Jin Gu and Lord Guan Yun guessed it instantly in their hearts... it was most likely that Li Yuan replaced Lord Bai Jiang.
"My two brothers, it seems you have guessed it." Lord Bai Jiang's eyes were cold: "My place has been taken."
"Li Yuan?" Lord Jin Gu said softly.
"Yes." Lord Bai Jiang saw that the other party had guessed it, so he no longer concealed it: "I should be the only one on the preliminary list who was kicked out."
Lord Jin Gu and Lord Guan Yun thought to themselves, "As expected."
"Humph!"
"The Beichenju quota... For gods like us, we are lucky to come across it once in our lifetime." Lord Baijiang's eyes turned cold, and he said in a low voice: "I never thought that I, Baijiang, would be robbed of such an important opportunity one day."
Lord Jin Gu and Lord Guan Yun both sighed in their hearts, unable to persuade him.
In the Chaos Divine Court, there are more than one hundred Divine Lords, but only forty vacancies... It can be said that every Divine Lord is trying his best to fight for the vacancies and to increase the possibility of entering the Divine King realm.
For example, although Lord Jingu and Lord Guanyun have not become disciples of the God King, they also have the God King supporting them behind the scenes.
"How can he, a guy who doesn't even have the strength of a God, get this position?" God Bai Jiang said coldly.
The chance that was sure to win had slipped away? How could he not be angry?
What made him most unwilling was that his master did not inform him in advance.
But, there's no way to say this.
"Bai Jiang." Guanyun God Lord sighed, "I know you are angry, but as a good friend, I still want to persuade you... Li Yuan has great potential and a mysterious background. Maybe he is really a disciple of the God Emperor."
"Great potential? With his strength, he will die if he enters Beichen Residence." Lord Baijiang sneered: "Disciple of the Divine Emperor? Since he has taken away my opportunity, I don't care whose disciple he is."
"Okay, brothers, don't worry, I'm not a reckless person."
"Let's end the banquet here today. I won't keep you two brothers here." Lord Baijiang said in a low voice.
Although he was angry in his heart, he was also very calm, and he would not vent his anger on the two gods, as they were his good friends.
Upon seeing this, Lord Jingu and Lord Guanyun realized that persuasion was useless, so they stood up, bowed and said goodbye, then flew out of the palace.
Upon seeing this, the many gods in the banquet hall realized that something had changed and stood up to say goodbye.
In the temple, only Lord Bai Jiang was left.
"Damn it!"
"This damn Li Yuan." Lord Bai Jiang finally couldn't bear it anymore and let out a deafening roar.
This low growl seemed to vent his dissatisfaction.
After a long time, Lord Bai Jiang also calmed down.
"This is the greatest opportunity to become a Divine King. I can't just give up like this." Lord Bai Jiang thought to himself, "I must go see Master."
……
In the Xinmeng Divine Realm, inside a magnificent temple.
A towering figure sat in the temple. This figure was over ten thousand kilometers tall. The airflow generated by his breathing formed a black storm, and dense black scales grew on his body.
Between his eyebrows, there is a faint triangular flame symbol, exuding a domineering aura.
Suddenly, a little light gathered and formed a white figure in the temple.
"Bai Jiang, you are here after all." The towering figure looked down, his eyes seemed to see through everything.
"Master." The incarnation of Lord Baijiang bowed respectfully, with a hint of reluctance in his voice: "Beichen Residence has a precious quota, and I really want to fight for it."
The towering figure remained silent, sighing inwardly.
As the God King, he is an ultimate being who controls the complete laws of space. How could he not know what his favorite disciple is thinking?
"Idiot."
"I have been fighting for you." Black Ruins Divine King said slowly, "But this time it is not what I want, but it happened for a reason. I can't refuse at all."
The God King of Black Ruins couldn't help but think of the God King meeting not long ago... The God King of Heart Realm actually spoke up, hoping that Li Yuan would replace Bai Jiang.
Even if it was God King Dongmang who asked, God King Heixu had reason to refuse... After all, although Li Yuan was a registered disciple of the God Emperor, he still had to abide by the rules.
But the God King of the Heart Realm spoke, and because of some special reasons in the past, the God King of the Black Ruins had no choice but to agree.
After the meeting, he felt guilty and didn't know how to talk to Lord Baijiang for a moment, so he gave the other party a top-grade divine weapon.
"Is there a reason for this?"
"Master." Lord Bai Jiang gritted his teeth and said, "Could the rumors be true? Could Li Yuan really be a disciple of the Divine Emperor?"
"There are some things you shouldn't know, so don't ask." The Black Ruins God King said in a rumbling voice: "This time, I am indeed ashamed of you. I will find a way to make it up to you."
“But, in this vast divine realm, I’m afraid there is no treasure that can compare to the Five Realms Void Stone.” Lord Baijiang gritted his teeth.
There was a glimmer of desire in his heart.
He hoped that the Black Ruins God King could take action and take the spot back...even though he knew the hope was extremely slim.
"Bai Jiang."
"You need to calm down." Black Ruins God King sighed, "The most important reason why you didn't get a spot this time is that you are not strong enough... If you had the strength of a top God, no one would be able to replace you."
“With your current strength, even if your master has bestowed you with two divine weapons... it will be fraught with danger for you to enter Beichen Residence. Your master finally agreed to other divine kings because he did not want you to fall into such great danger.” The Black Ruins Divine King said slowly.
The outside world only knows that Lord Baijiang has an offensive God King weapon... But in fact, Lord Baijiang also has a God King-level battle armor, which makes his material defense reach a terrifying level and has a very strong ability to protect his life.
Lord Bai Jiang gritted his teeth but did not argue any further.
He had just contradicted the Black Ruins God King several times... If other gods saw this scene, they would probably be stunned.
After all, when ordinary gods meet the King of Gods, how could they dare to refute?
God King!
He is absolutely high and mighty. Although the seemingly powerful god is no different from the gods in front of the King of Gods, he just needs to listen to him obediently.
Lord Baijiang dared to argue a few words because he relied on Lord Heixu's almost doting love for him.
“Bai Jiang.” Seeing that Lord Bai Jiang was no longer arguing, the Black Ruins Divine King softened his tone and said, “If you really want to fight, there is another way.”
Lord Bai Jiang's eyes lit up.
"Go find those gods who have been given quotas and promise them benefits." The Black Ruins God King said slowly, "If they are willing to give you the quota, I will still have room for maneuver."
"There is no other way."
"Let other gods give up their places?" God Bai Jiang couldn't help but ask, "Master, why can't you just say it directly?"
The Black Ruins God King frowned.
"It was my disciple's fault for not considering it carefully." Lord Bai Jiang has realized that something is wrong.
Which god doesn’t have a king of gods behind him?
What belongs to the God King belongs to the God King, and what belongs to the God Lord belongs to the God Lord... Generally speaking, the God King will not interfere in the affairs between the God Lords.
Otherwise, wouldn't everything be a mess?
"Remember!"
“I can’t use my name to oppress them. They must volunteer.” The Black Ruins God King said, “I don’t want other God Kings to come to me to complain.”
"Yes." Lord Bai Jiang said respectfully, and his incarnation disappeared in this palace.
"Hey!"
The Black Ruins God King sighed softly, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes: "Bai Jiang?"
In a trance, he remembered the figure from the past.
he!
The Black Ruins God King is not only the highest level of the Juexing Emperor Palace, but also the ruler of the 'Black Ruins Advanced Starry Sky Divine Kingdom'. He completely occupies an area of the star field, and his bloodline descendants multiply in it... The White River God Lord is actually also his bloodline descendant, but it is unknown how many generations have passed.
But Lord Baijiang, both in terms of soul aura and appearance, is almost exactly the same as the child who died in his early years.
That was the only child born to the Black Ruins God King.
Back then, God King Heixu owed a lot to his own children, and it was only when Lord Baijiang appeared in his sight that his eyes lit up... This is also the reason why Lord Baijiang is so favored.
"Bai Jiang, your hope of becoming a Divine King is extremely slim."
"I will protect him for the rest of his life." The Black Ruins God King knew that the White River God Lord was very arrogant.
But he didn't care at all.
In a sense, his preference for Lord Baijiang is his attempt to make up for his inner regrets.
……
The list of Beichenju will only be announced to the gods.
But as time passed, news about this list gradually spread among the circle of gods.
Some powerful fourth-level and third-level gods also gradually found out.
"The Beichenju list has been released? I am not even qualified to check it."
"Beichen Residence! It contains the 'Five Realms Void Stone', a treasure that helps you comprehend the laws of space. If you get it, your efficiency in comprehending the laws of space will skyrocket."
“I didn’t expect that it would be born in our time.”
"Legend has it that some of the top gods whose comprehension of the laws of space has reached the 'Eleventh Limit', and who have obtained the Five Realms Void Stone, have more than a 20% chance of comprehending the laws of space in one fell swoop." Many gods were discussing this.
A 20% hope is already amazing.
Under normal circumstances, among hundreds of gods, it is difficult for one to become a God King.
"Unfortunately, without the strength of a Divine Lord, I am not even qualified to compete for a spot."
"I don't think so."
"Although Li Yuan has the title of 'God Lord' in the Divine Court, his actual strength is slightly inferior to that of the God Lord, but he still got a place."
"Li Yuan? How did he get the spot?"
"I heard that Lord Li Yuan seems to have snatched Lord Bai Jiang's spot?" Most of the gods who knew the list noticed Li Yuan on the list.
After all, decades ago, in the battle at Dongji Star, Li Yuangang’s name spread throughout the Divine Realm and he was at the height of his fame.
Now you have got a place in Beichenju?
"Li Yuan, how did you get the quota?"
"Humph! Beichen Junei can't lead the army of gods. With his own strength, he is still a little short of being a god... Besides, I have always suspected that he can burst out such strong power, and he may also have a god king weapon."
"It is very likely that he has a divine weapon. Otherwise, how could he possess such strength when he has just become a divine being?"
"If the Divine King's weapons were given to me, I would definitely be able to rank in the top 50 of the Heavenly God List."
"Don't dream." "I have practiced for more than 100,000 years and have made many contributions to the Divine Court. My ranking on the Heavenly God List is far higher than Li Yuan, but I don't have the slightest chance."
"Bai Jiang has the power of a Divine Lord thanks to his Divine King weapon. Li Yuan is weaker than him. Once he enters Beichen Residence, he will simply be courting death."
"Those from other major forces who can enter are all Divine Lords, including those top Divine Lords."
"Envy? Who wouldn't be envious? Because he has a powerful background? Humph!" Many gods were secretly communicating with each other.
There are many gods who are dissatisfied with Beichen’s quota.
Especially those powerful gods who have practiced for many years but failed to be selected, they believe that they are superior to Li Yuan in terms of merit and strength.
"Li Yuan is extremely talented. The top management probably values his potential."
"He has been practicing for a short time, and perhaps his strength has improved." Some gods also defended Li Yuan, believing that the top leadership must have a deep meaning behind choosing Li Yuan to be included in the list.
"Strength improvement? The laws of space are so difficult to comprehend. Even if he really has a breakthrough and reaches the level of a Divine Lord at best, with Beichen in the middle, he will become the target of public criticism."
"He has great talent. If other powerful forces have a chance, why wouldn't they kill him?"
"Unless he possesses the strength of a top-level God Lord, he will surely die if he is targeted."
"Since ancient times, has there been anyone in the Divine Realm who has cultivated for hundreds of years and possessed the combat power of a top-level God? Not even one." Many Gods watched coldly.
Under normal circumstances, they would like to make friends with Li Yuan, as more friends mean more paths.
What if it involves Beichenju’s quota?
In their view, Li Yuan was a pure "relative", a relative whose power was even weaker than that of Lord Bai Jiang.
……
In the Heart Dream Divine Realm, inside the God Tavern.
This is a special tavern in the main city. Only gods are allowed to enter. Due to the special wine in the tavern, after the gods' incarnations drink it, their consciousness will be intoxicated... Therefore, it attracts a large number of gods.
Over time, this place became a place where the gods from the Chaos Divine Court gathered to chat.
Generally, there will be hundreds of gods gathered here, and in busy times, there will be thousands or even tens of thousands of gods' incarnations descending here.
Inside the tavern, at a wine table, several figures exuding a powerful aura gathered together.
Ordinary gods didn't dare to get close to them.
"Li Yuan, don't pay too much attention to these rumors." The burly Qianjun God said in a low voice: "It's just that those gods are jealous of you."
"Yes." The 'Lord Beihu' in white robe nodded.
"Li Yuan, getting the quota is the most important thing." The Blood Feather Divine Lord beside him also smiled and said, "A few rumors, compared to the opportunity to become a Divine King, what are they worth?"
"You guys are so calm because you got the quota." Li Yuan said with a teasing smile: "If you didn't get the quota, I'm afraid you would curse more cruelly than other gods."
"Hahaha." Lord Qianjun, Lord Beihu, and Lord Xueyu couldn't help but laugh when they heard that.
The three of them are all very capable and have impressive backgrounds, and they have indeed obtained places in Beichenju.
Over the years, while Li Yuan devoted himself to cultivation, he would occasionally devote a little energy to communicating with other gods in the Heart Dream Divine Realm... Maintaining only one incarnation had little impact on his cultivation.
The three in front of him are the three gods with whom Li Yuan has the best relationship among the many gods he has met.
The various rumors generated by the Beichenju quota did indeed exceed Li Yuan's initial expectations.
He underestimated the desire of those gods for the "Beichenju quota".
But Li Yuan didn't care too much.
suddenly.
"Xueyu, Beihu, Qianjun, you are all here." A hearty voice sounded, coming from far away, with obvious kindness.
Li Yuan, Blood Feather God and others immediately turned their heads to look over.
"Bai Jiang? You're here." Qianjun Divine Lord deliberately pointed out the other party's identity and said with a smile: "We are just chatting."
Li Yuan instantly understood the other party's identity.
There are many gods in the Chaos Divine Court. Although Li Yuan has tried to make friends with them over the years, he has never met half of them.
What is Lord Baijiang doing here at this time?
Lord Blood Feather and Lord Beihu also greeted with a smile.
"Lord Bai Jiang." Li Yuan said with a smile. Even if some conflicts arise secretly within the same force, they generally will not completely fall out.
What's more, there has not been any direct conflict between the two parties, so Li Yuan naturally would not put on a bad face.
"Li Yuan." Lord Bai Jiang's smile became even brighter. "I've always heard from others that a peerless genius who is feared by the gods was born in my Chaos Divine Court. After a very short period of training, he has almost the combat power of a Lord. He is fully expected to be comparable to the legendary Ten Star Veins. Even my master praised you endlessly."
"I admire him very much."
"After seeing it today, I find that its reputation is well-deserved." Lord Bai Jiang sighed.
It was as if he really admired Li Yuan immensely.
"I'm just luckier. In terms of the true understanding of the laws, there is still a gap between me and most of the gods." Li Yuan smiled, but there was a hint of caution in his heart.
Even though he had never met Lord Baijiang before, Li Yuan had already heard of his temperament.
When did you become so humble?
"Bai Jiang." The Blood Feather Divine Lord beside him laughed teasingly, "It's rare for you to praise someone. You are so good at talking today... Do you have something to ask Li Yuan?"
Lord Beihu and Lord Qianjun looked like they were enjoying the fun.
Ordinary gods are afraid of Lord Baijiang, but since they are also gods, they are not afraid at all.
Lord Bai Jiang's expression froze slightly.
He did have something to do... There was no other way. He had already met many of the gods on Beichenju's list, but was rejected by all of them.
Think before and after.
He decided to meet Li Yuan... In his opinion, Li Yuan was weak, maybe he could make Li Yuan change his mind and give up his place?
"Brother Li Yuan."
"I do have a favor to ask of you." A trace of apology appeared on Lord Bai Jiang's face. "You are extremely talented, and you have only been practicing for a short time. Even without any external aid, I am afraid you can enter the Divine King Realm... But I can't. I must have great determination and perseverance to have a glimmer of hope."
"So, I wonder if you can give me the Beichenju quota?" Lord Baijiang looked at Li Yuan and said, "Don't worry, I'm not asking you to give up your quota for nothing. I'm willing to pay 200 trillion Xinmeng coins as a reward... As long as you agree, I will transfer the money immediately."
"What do you think?" Lord Bai Jiang said sincerely.
Li Yuan's heart moved.
He didn't expect that the other party actually came to ask for a place.
“Brother Bai Jiang, it’s not that I’m stingy.” Li Yuan shook his head and said, “I can’t say that I’m completely confident about the Divine King Realm… This Beichen Residence quota is also very important to me.”
This is rejection.
"Li Yuan, you probably don't know that Beichenju is extremely dangerous. Even the top gods are in danger of falling." Lord Baijiang couldn't help but say, "Especially you, with your talent and reputation, I'm afraid you will be targeted by the top gods of other forces, which is even more dangerous."
"It is dangerous." Li Yuan said, "But I have my own way, so Brother Bai Jiang doesn't need to worry about it."
Lord Bai Jiang understood that if he didn't want to completely break off relations, he couldn't ask any more questions.
"Haha."
"Bai Jiang, you think too simply about this matter." Qianjun Divine Lord said with a smile: "This quota was set by the Divine Kings. How can we give it to others privately? Even if you want a quota, you should go to the Divine Kings instead of Brother Li Yuan."
"Okay, no more talking."
"We've finally gathered together, let's drink first." Qianjun Shenjun said with a smile: "This tavern has recently released a new kind of wine..."
The words of Lord Qianjun eased the atmosphere.
After the banquet, several gods left.
……
Return to your palace in the dream world.
“No one is willing to give in!”
"I paid a heavy price for this Li Yuan, but he refused to give in." Lord Bai Jiang was extremely angry, his eyes were cold: "You have your own way? Bullshit."
"Wait!"
"I'll wait for you to embarrass yourself in Beichen Residence." Lord Baijiang's eyes were full of disgust: "Don't die in there."
……
In the Xinmeng Divine Realm, inside Li Yuan’s palace.
"Junior Master, did you reject Lord Baijiang's request?" The incarnation of the Sword Demon God said with a smile.
"Have you heard everything?" Li Yuan said with a smile.
"Yes." The Blade Demon God smiled and said, "You refused in the God Tavern. You met many gods at that time. The news has already spread."
Li Yuan burst out laughing.
"I'm afraid Lord Bai Jiang is very angry with me." Li Yuan shook his head slightly: "In a sense, I stole his quota, and he begged me to give up his quota, but I still refused."
“Haha, Junior Uncle, you are wrong.” The Blade Demon God laughed and said, “What do you mean by his quota? These are all quotas of the Divine Court, just benefits for the Divine Lords under his command… Otherwise, if you are really capable, you can get a Beichenju World Order on your own.”
Li Yuan couldn't help but smile.
"Little uncle."
"Don't worry about the rumors in the outside world." The Sword Demon God said, "It's just because you have only been in the God Realm for a short time... but how can others know your true talent?"
“I believe that soon, the number one on the list of gods will be yours, Junior Master.” Sword Demon God said with a smile.
"You didn't come to me just to brag about me, did you?" Li Yuan said helplessly.
"The one who knows me best is my junior uncle." The Blade Demon God said with a smile, "I have been meditating recently and have some feelings. I am going to return to the Divine Court to meditate for a while. Perhaps I can comprehend the ultimate moves of the gods in one fell swoop."
"Oh?" Li Yuan's eyes lit up.
With the Sword Demon God's divine body as his foundation, once he comprehends the ultimate moves of the gods, he will have the combat power of a god.
"This is a great thing." Li Yuan said with a smile, "You can go ahead."
……
The Juexing Imperial Palace, the divine ruins of space, the independent space where Li Yuan himself is.
“So many rumors.”
"It's purely because my ranking on the Heavenly God List is too low." Li Yuan whispered to himself: "Except for me, the other 39 gods, the lowest ranked on the Heavenly God List, are all in the top ."
Those who are ranked over 400 are not necessarily weaker than those who are ranked over 300.
After all, strength is a combination of all aspects... and this is just the battle record ranking of the Starry Sky Divine Court. The top leaders of the Chaos Divine Court know the members of their own forces better and have their own ideas.
But generally speaking, the ranking gap will not be too outrageous.
Li Yuan was only ranked 866th, compared with other gods... naturally rumors spread.
"If I show my strength as a top-level god, naturally no one will question it." Li Yuan thought to himself, "There are only a few decades left before Beichen Residence opens."
"I have cultivated all eight perfect astrology techniques to the seventh level. It's time to take action on some things."
hum~
Li Yuan flipped his palm, and a world appeared in his palm, and in the world there was a palace.
"Sister Gu You." Li Yuan transmitted the message.
"It's time to avenge Teacher Gu Ju."
