High-Level Martial Era

"Sister!" Li Yuan was always aware of what was appropriate.

"That's more like it." The girl's smile became even more radiant. "Say it a few more times."

"Sister! Sister!" Li Yuan said without hesitation, for once people break their limits, they continue to break them.

Until they have none left.

"Good." The girl's eyes narrowed into slits, and she found Li Yuan growing more pleasing to the eye.

All of a sudden,

The girl sighed, "Since the death of father's disciples, it has been nearly ten thousand years since I heard the title 'sister'."

"Ten thousand years?" Li Yuan held his breath. That was an exceptionally long time.

Discounting some of the unverifiable historical legends, the entire history of the Seven Star Civilization is only about five thousand years.

"Come, let's complete the apprenticeship ceremony first." The girl revealed her small canine teeth and looked at Li Yuan. "Father's direct disciple... Hehe! Father finally has a disciple again."

She then walked toward the enormous and majestic throne at the end of the temple.

Li Yuan immediately followed.

During the more than ten days prior, when he sparred with the three Golden Armored Warriors, he was not allowed to approach the area near the throne.

This time, as he followed Gu You to the base of the throne.

"Hmm?" Li Yuan's pupils shrank.

Whoosh~ The once silent majestic throne suddenly burst into a brilliant golden light that filled the entire Hall of Inheritance as if it was enveloped in endless golden radiance.

Right after that, the girl pointed from afar.

Without sound or sign, countless golden lights converged, forming an enormous phantom atop the majestic throne.

It was a humanoid creature, sitting at a height of dozens of meters, clothed in earthy yellow Combat Armor, its skin almost stone-like without a single hair, and at first glance, resembled a rock giant. It too had arms and legs... and it exuded an aura of utmost supremacy.

This powerful presence made Li Yuan catch his breath.

It was too strong, undoubtedly the most powerful being Li Yuan had ever seen... Even though it was just a phantom left by Divine Sense, the oppression it radiated was probably even beyond the Bai Shan Semi-Divine.

This was a Divine Being.

"My daughter." The colossal phantom as if coming to life, its gaze fell upon the girl in white, eyes filled with tenderness.

"Father." The girl who was just giggling, looked at the figure with tears barely visible in her eyes.

It had been too long.

She almost couldn't remember how long it had been since she last saw her father's figure.

"Father, your daughter has fulfilled her duty and chosen the first direct disciple." The girl pointed at Li Yuan beside her, her voice more serious than ever. "Li Yuan, step forward to pay your respects as my disciple."

"Yes."

Li Yuan was unable to tell if the colossal phantom was a remnant left by the Divine Being or if it truly contained a part of the Divine Being's consciousness... The methods of Divine Beings are unfathomable.

He respectfully knelt on the ground and bowed deeply. "Disciple Li Yuan, greets Master."

Although the other had passed away,

Since he had chosen to accept the inheritance, he naturally had to engrave the grace of being taught in his heart, bowing to his master, Li Yuan also did so with genuine acceptance.

Thump~ Thump~ Thump~ Li Yuan bowed respectfully three times.

As he bowed for the third time,

"A disciple of Ancient Torch?" The giant figure upon the golden throne smiled, looking down at Li Yuan as if it could truly see him. "My student, I've been gone for who knows how long, and I don't expect you to do anything specific, I have no particular demands."

"Just one thing, take good care of your sister."

Immediately after, the giant figure pointed toward Li Yuan, and a stream of golden light flew from his fingertip, directly descending upon Li Yuan's forehead.

Boom!

His soul thundered, and even with Li Yuan's strong spiritual power, he felt dazed at this moment. The golden light that rushed toward him contained an ocean of information, quickly transmitting into his soul.

It swiftly integrated into his memory, intermingling with countless other memories.

The Ninefold Star Technique "True Solution of the Earth Star Vein" for the first six ranks... The Ninefold Star Technique "All Things Divine Body" for the first six ranks... The Seventh Layers Star Technique "Great Earth Divine Body"... The Fifth Layers Star Technique "Stellar Mysterious Body"... The Seventh Layers Star Technique "Ninefold Astral Void"...

One after another, powerful and complete Star Techniques.

Were directly transmitted to Li Yuan.

Each of these Star Techniques were paths leading to the Divine Level, incredibly precious. Many a Star Technique could drive countless Flying Heaven Warriors and even Demigods mad... This was the Divine Being Inheritance.

If the Divine Being were alive, he might not trust to pass on so many powerful Star Techniques to his disciples.

But since he had died, then naturally, all such Star Techniques and treasures would be left to his Successor.

Every powerful Star Technique, especially those from the later stages, were exceedingly fearsome, and the information pertaining to their cultivation was vast and complex, particularly with respect to the Semi Divine Level and Divine Level... The knowledge was vast and profound.

Luckily, Li Yuan was already at the Flying Heaven Level of spiritual power.

If he were merely a Prime Warrior, he would not be able to directly bear so much inheritance information. Even so, it would take Li Yuan at least an entire day to fully absorb all the information.

Li Yuan closed his eyes, silently receiving it.

At this moment, he couldn't afford to be distracted by anything else.

On the side.

"The Light of Inheritance."

"Father's life's work... before his passing, he left only three such remnants." The girl's eyes still showed a trace of tears, her feelings complicated, with a hint of resolve. "Father, I will surely train Li Yuan well."

"If he doesn't suffice, I'll screen for a second, and then a third direct disciple."

"When the time comes, when Li Yuan has become a Divine Being... I will surely make him reclaim everything." The girl pledged silently in her heart. "With that token, there's great hope."

She was referred to as the War God by the Golden Armored Warriors, an indeed terrifying presence.

And in her heart, the Ancient Torch Divine was the true heaven.
