High-Level Martial Era

Chapter 265: Mark of the God (Extra 5! Votes for the month!!)



Duanmu Mountain Master was very brief, only giving the many new members of the Martial Divine Hall a concept.

The actual cultivation details of the Martial Divine Hall were all in the manual.

"So, each member of the Martial Divine Hall can only cultivate here until they are 50 years old?" Li Yuan thought: "Must they leave the Martial Divine Hall if they have not broken through to the Flying Heaven Level by the age of 50?"

If any of the following conditions are met, they must leave the Martial Divine Hall.

First, break through to become a Flying Heaven Level.

Second, exceed the age of 50.

It was also regulated to prevent certain members of Seven Star Mountain from deliberately staying at the Origin Martial Artist stage to receive Seven Stars Points.

Each member of the Martial Divine Hall can receive up to 6000 Seven Stars Points for free in their lifetime.

More Seven Stars Points? No more!

After all, the resources of the entire Seven Star Civilization are limited; it is impossible to pour unlimited resources into one genius.

Want more? Then rely on your own efforts to complete various war missions, or venture into the Star Realm to obtain them.

"No wonder the higher-ups don't care about the age of the Martial Divine Hall members, but let everyone compete together." Li Yuan thought: "For the younger ones, like Tian Dazhuang, a few more years of tempering, and with improved Physical Quality, they can still grow."

"For the older ones, like Bores, who came in at an older age, will leave sooner."

"In any case, one can only receive up to 6000 Seven Stars Points in their lifetime." Li Yuan thought.

Perhaps, in the eyes of the higher-ups, a Flying Heaven Martial Artist has a lifespan of 500 years, and a Demigod has an even longer lifespan of 1000 years.

What's the difference between a year earlier or later?

The so-called prime age for cultivation is more for First Rank Martial Artists and ordinary Origin Martial Artists, because their chances of reaching the Flying Heaven Warrior are very slim, so naturally they have to cultivate with all their might while young.

Secondly, the reward limit of 6000 points is not small either, enough to buy a Semi Divine Artifact in the Seven Stars Treasure Vault.

The reward targets, after all, are just the Origin Martial Artist youngsters.

"Looking at it this way, the Visualization Method bestowed to me by the dean is indeed incredibly valuable, directly rewarding me with 30,000 points, and according to the dean, it's only equivalent to a down payment? The true value is far beyond that?" Li Yuan murmured: "The Seven Stars Points rewards from the Martial Divine Hall indeed don't mean much to me."

Even as a member of Seven Star Mountain, one could only get 400 Seven Stars Points per year.

How about Li Yuan? He still has more than 30,000 points now.

Suddenly, Li Yuan thought of how he had recently spent a few thousand Seven Stars Points to purchase two Fourth Rank treasures, shaking his head: "Aside from me, probably very few Origin Martial Artists would do such a thing."

Using Fourth Rank treasures to enhance Physical Quality and the liveliness of one's body and bones? That's too extravagant.

Even the geniuses of the Martial Divine Hall mostly purchase Third Rank treasures that enhance Physical Quality, combined with Cultivation Methods, striving to reach the level of a Top Grade Origin Martial Artist within a few years.

They wouldn't be so extravagant as Li Yuan.

It can't be helped, Li Yuan has a lot of Seven Stars Points.

"Seven Stars Points are distributed annually according to strength." Li Yuan read through the manual, thinking: "But the levels of Martial God Inheritance are promoted based on a comprehensive assessment of potential."

Third Class, Second Class, First Rank, Special Rank, there are no very clear promotion rules.

The manual only states that it will take into account many aspects, such as the current demonstrated strength, age, Star Meridian talent, and skill level of each member of the Martial Divine Hall.

"And Dean Hai has said."

"A normal First Rank Martial God Inheritor must achieve the feat of killing an Alien Race of Flying Heaven Level across ranks to be promoted." Li Yuan silently recited: "I have already revealed astonishing Star Meridian talent... If during The Battle of Seven Stars, I can demonstrate overwhelming strength again."

"Perhaps, I could be promoted to a First Rank Martial God Inheritor ahead of time." Li Yuan thought.

The stronger the demonstrated strength, the more attention one naturally receives, and the more benefits one gets.

The manual's content about Martial God Inheritors also made some clarifications about the benefits for Third Class, Second Class, and First Rank:

Third Class Martial God Inheritors can accept 'Martial God Inheritance' once every five years.

Second Class, once every two years.

First Rank, once a year.

As for Special Rank? There is no clear explanation of what the benefits are, only that they will be far greater than those of a First Rank Martial God Inheritor.

Moreover, the manual does not clearly state what 'Martial God Inheritance' actually is.

"When I enter the Martial Divine Hall, and receive the inheritance, I will naturally understand." Li Yuan thought.

Suddenly.

Drip~ The intelligent bracelet vibrated, and Li Yuan immediately looked down and clicked to agree.

Whirr~ A light screen projection condensed, and the projection showed a figure.

"Big Brother Yu." Li Yuan showed a smile.

The one who made the V-call was none other than Yu Jinghe.

"Li Yuan, I know you arrived at the Martial Divine Star Realm today." Yu Jinghe smiled: "Tavares even asked me if we should go welcome you, but I rejected him."

"I figured you must be under enough pressure already, so I didn't want to add to your troubles." Yu Jinghe smiled: "After half a month, when your Battle of Seven Stars is over, Wu Manong, Tavares, and I will come to your residence to gather."

"Alright." Li Yuan readily agreed, as all of these individuals were members of Seven Star Mountain.

They are all top geniuses of human civilization; making friends with them is a good thing.

"Big Brother Yu, are all of you currently in the Martial Divine Star Realm?" Li Yuan asked curiously.

"A few of us are in concealed cultivation on Seven Star Mountain, but An Yongya is not here; he has gone to the Mingxu Star Realm on Blue Star." Yu Jinghe said: "A terrible war has broken out there... Maybe in a while, we will have to go support."

"Mingxu Star Realm?" Li Yuan's heart stirred.

It wasn't long before Liu Jing sent him a message, and now a war had already erupted?

However, Li Yuan didn't ask Yu Jinghe further.

"I contacted you to remind you of two things." Yu Jinghe said: "First, give it your all in the Battle of Seven Stars, at least strive to break through the fifth barrier."

"Becoming an elite member isn't just about getting more Seven Stars Points every year, there are many invisible benefits that also increase significantly," Yu Jinghe said. "Perhaps it's not much to you, but a mosquito's meat is still meat."

"Understood," Li Yuan said with a smile.

"The second matter is about the Martial God Inheritance," Yu Jinghe said with a smile. "You haven't received it before, and the first contact has the best effect... I suggest you take it as soon as possible."

"Okay, thank you for the reminder, Big Brother Yu."

...

Before long, Li Yuan ended the communication with Yu Jinghe.

"Big Brother Yu is quite concerned about me, even going out of his way to contact me," Li Yuan thought to himself. "Well, Big Brother Yu has spent over a decade in the Martial Divine Star Realm; he has much more experience than I do. I'll follow his advice."

"Apply for the Martial God Inheritance tomorrow."

Just as Li Yuan tapped on the light screen and was about to apply, he realized... he needed to queue.

"The earliest I can apply is in three days?" Li Yuan shook his head in resignation and clicked to agree.

Three days it is. I can wait.

"There's still half a month left."

"Let's make an effort to cultivate the 'Stellar Mysterious Body' to the limit of the Second Order Level 5," Li Yuan said with a grin.

...

The underground Martial Arts Room was immensely vast, like daylight, and this super-large underground space left Li Yuan quite impressed.

"It's enough for top-grade Prime Warriors to fight at full strength," Li Yuan marveled to himself.

Though a top-grade Prime Warrior could traverse two to three hundred meters in a flash.

But merely for actual combat training, or for sparring among Martial Artists, such vast space isn't necessary.

Just as an ordinary person can reach a speed of 10 meters per second at full power, when two people are sparring, the arena is usually just ten meters in length.

Sitting cross-legged on the cool ground.

"Star Marks!" With a thought from Li Yuan, surging Origin Power circulated as he continued trying to imprint more Star Marks on the numerous Life Stars of his second Star Meridian.

Second Order Star Marks are much more complex than First Order, naturally making them more difficult to imprint.

In this past half-month, Li Yuan had been diligently cultivating the 'Stellar Mysterious Body,' but he had only managed to reach the Fourth Level of the Second Order; he was still far from the final limit of the Second Order Level 5.

This rate of cultivation, if it were to be known, could surely cause a sensation.

After all, many Second Order Prime Warriors take years to barely step into the Second Order level while cultivating a Third Layer or Fourth Layer Star Technique, let alone reach the Second Order Limit.

...

Time passed by.

As Li Yuan was still cultivating Star Techniques, preparing wholeheartedly for the upcoming Battle of Seven Stars.

On the second day after their arrival in the Martial Divine Star Realm.

"Martial God Inheritance."

"What great secret does it contain? There are no explanations even in the manual," Alicia had already reached the entrance to the Martial Divine Hall.

After greeting the two guards and inquiring about some precautions regarding the Martial Divine Hall,

Alicia then entered the majestic hall.

She was the first among hundreds of new members of this batch to apply for the Martial God Inheritance.

Alicia always wanted to know what the Martial God Inheritance truly was.

Boom— The great hall's doors shut closed.

...Half an hour later.

Boom— The grand hall doors opened, and Alicia flew out with a shocked and satisfied expression on her face.

"Incredible," Alicia thought back to her recent experience, feeling astonished. "Such a short time, yet it gave me a glimpse of the path ahead?"

"So precious, and they let me come into contact with it directly?"

The Martial God Inheritance completely exceeded her understanding.

"Alicia, that's insane! Absolutely insane!" a childish voice resonated in her mind, quite agitated, "Those are divine Marks, containing the cultivation insights of a divine soul, to think it has appeared in the world like this... With so many divine Marks, I now really doubt that someone named Dongfang Ji hasn't stumbled upon a burial ground of numerous divine souls."

"Otherwise, how could he, a mere Demigod, even an unbeatable one, get hold of so many divine Marks? I don't believe it," the childish voice said excitedly.

"You must strive to enter again, and naturally, your gains will be even greater next time," urged the childish voice, quite eager.

"Don't rush."

"I only have a Third Class Martial God Inheritance opportunity, once every five years," Alicia responded. "For now, I'll head back, fully digest the insights from these divine Marks, and strive to improve my strength as soon as possible, aiming to upgrade to a Second Class Inheritors of the Martial Divine Hall."

"Okay."

...

Feixing, hundreds of kilometers from the entry and exit point of the Martial Divine Star Realm.

A mysterious location.

In the vast expanse of Dark Space, a vague figure sat cross-legged, motionless, as if eternal.

Suddenly.

"Master," a deep voice spoke up. "An unexpected situation arose at the Martial Divine Hall."

"Tell me," the vague figure's eyes slowly opened, revealing depths profound and vast.

"I've detected a divine soul's thoughts attaching to a member of the Martial Divine Hall; just now, it attempted to infiltrate all parts of the temple, seeking to uncover the secrets of the divine hall," the deep voice reported.
