High-Level Martial Era-Chapter 642 - 353: The Secret of the Alliance Hierarch
Chapter 642: Chapter 353: The Secret of the Alliance Hierarch
“I understand,” said Li Yuan, well aware of the Alliance Hierarch’s rules. It was with Seven Stars Points that he had previously secured the treasure to propel his soul to the Semi-Divine Level.
Whew!
With a mere thought from Li Yuan, the potent Flying Heaven Origin Power already seeped from his fingertips, condensing to form a light screen beside him.
First Rank Life possesses only the strength of the flesh.
Second Rank Life begins to awaken the Star Meridian, allowing for basic use of Origin Power, though it is difficult to separate from the body and can at most cling to the outer layers.
Third Rank Life can easily project Origin Power out of the body for a variety of long-range techniques such as exerting domains. However, the farther the power extends from the body, the more challenging it is to control and the weaker its might.
...
As formidable as a Fourth Rank Semi-Divine, Origin Power can travel hundreds of kilometers from the body… yet at such a distance, it’s hard even for a Level 30 Flying Heaven Warrior to kill.
At this moment, on the light screen activated by Li Yuan, there was a dense list of an enormous number of treasures, totaling over three hundred kinds.
“Alliance Hierarch, these are the treasures,” Li Yuan said respectfully.
Dongfang Ji examined the treasures on the light screen closely before he couldn’t help asking, “This isn’t just a few; are you planning to cultivate several Supreme Star Techniques?”
“Three,” Li Yuan hesitated before adding, “plus two Seventh Layer Star Techniques.”
Indeed, the list of treasures on the screen was what Li Yuan had planned for the five Supreme Star Techniques he wanted to cultivate.
Yet, compared to the Second Rank Eight Star Veins… Five Nine Layers Star Veins were even more incredible. The cultivation of any Supreme Star Technique to the Third Rank Limit would require numerous treasures, including some exotic rarities.
Hence, Li Yuan kept some secrets to himself.
“Three?”
“Three Supreme Star Techniques?” Dongfang Ji was quite taken aback, but with his extensive knowledge, a brief analysis led him to feel that something was off with the list of treasures.
Nevertheless, he did not expose Li Yuan.
“There are too many treasures here, and quite a few are very precious, with some that I’ve never even heard of,” Dongfang Ji said, looking at Li Yuan.
“So I can’t assure you I can obtain them. It will take some time before I can tell you,” Dongfang Ji slowly said, “Now that you’ve become powerful enough, I won’t keep you in the dark.”
“I have a secret channel for obtaining treasures, which is related to the Nine Mountains World and also to the Divine Realm… Once you make your way through the Nine Mountains World, you will understand fully,” Dongfang Ji said, looking at Li Yuan.
Li Yuan was astonished.
He wasn’t surprised that the Alliance Hierarch had additional channels for treasures… but they were linked to the Nine Mountains World and the Divine Realm?
Could it be that the Alliance Hierarch could directly communicate with the Divine Realm?
Indeed, this was beyond Li Yuan’s expectations.
“Through this treasure channel, it is normally possible to exchange for Fourth Rank Treasures and Fifth Rank Treasures, but your list has too many rarities,” Dongfang Ji shook his head and said, “Wait a moment.”
“Yes,” Li Yuan nodded.
Dongfang Ji closed his eyes gently, as if trying to communicate, to see if the treasure exchange was feasible.
Time passed.
Li Yuan waited patiently.

A full quarter of an hour later.
“I have now confirmed your list of treasures,” Dongfang Ji opened his eyes and then gestured from afar.
Immediately.
On Li Yuan’s treasure light screen, over ninety percent of the treasure names glowed.
“These treasures that are shining, I can fulfill your request,” Dongfang Ji said to Li Yuan, “But those remaining, I can’t get them for you.”
Li Yuan swept his gaze over the list.
The treasures that the Alliance Hierarch had marked could allow the cultivation of the three already possessed Supreme Star Techniques, the “All Things Divine Body,” “Heavenly Wind Star Vein True Solution,” and “True Solution of the Earth Star Vein,” to the Third Rank Limit.
The two new Supreme Star Techniques he had chosen, “Heavenly God Feather” and “Myriad Shadows Void,” lacked the most crucial treasures and couldn’t be cultivated to the Third Rank Limit.
“Alliance Hierarch, for these exchangeable treasures, how many Seven Stars Points would be needed?” Li Yuan inquired.
“As per the quantities you’ve marked,” Dongfang Ji said, “a total of 8.5 million Seven Stars Points is required.”
“8.5 million Seven Stars Points?” Li Yuan widened his eyes, equivalent to 85 Fangshen Crystals.
That was outrageous; that amount could be used to exchange for several Divine Artifacts.
But after a brief consideration, Li Yuan relaxed. After all, these were for Supreme Star Techniques, and if he had chosen to practice Nine Layers Star Techniques, the needed points would have likely plummeted.
“Alliance Hierarch, if I were to exchange for these treasures, how many Seven Stars Points would it take?” Li Yuan waved his hand.
Immediately, another light screen appeared beside Li Yuan.
The number of treasures shown had dramatically decreased, with only less than two hundred items remaining. These were exactly the necessary treasure list for cultivating the three Supreme Star Techniques like “All Things Divine Body.”
“So much less?” Dongfang Ji noticed the new list of treasures and understood Li Yuan’s intentions.
If the corresponding Star Techniques could not be cultivated, then many treasures were temporarily unnecessary to exchange.
“Give me a moment,” Dongfang Ji pondered briefly before slowly saying, “6.5 million Seven Stars Points.”
That was already significantly less than the 8.5 million Points.
“Alliance Hierarch, deduct from my Seven Stars Points,” said Li Yuan, “I’m approximately 3 million Points short. How much value would these treasures have?”
Whew!
Li Yuan gestured and out flew a Storage Treasure, which contained the spoils from when he had previously swept through the Second Level Star Realm, slaughtering those Flying Heaven Warriors.
Whoosh~ A dark red light swept over the Storage Treasure, and in just a few seconds.
“These treasures are worth about 200,000 Seven Stars Points,” Dongfang Ji said with a smile.
Compared to the needed Seven Stars Points, the gap was still startling!
“Alliance Hierarch, what if we add this?” Li Yuan couldn’t help but wave his hand, and a crystal orb materialized in the void, emanating strange fluctuations.
“What is this?”
“Deity Visualization Method?” A flicker of surprise passed through Dongfang Ji’s eyes, and he closed his eyes slightly to sense it: “Hmm, it’s just an inferior Deity Visualization Method… If you want to sell it, I can give you 2 million Seven Stars Points.”
“2 million?” Li Yuan thought silently.
Li Yuan now understood that the grade of the Deity Visualization Method was greatly related to the level of the gods… The Visualization Methods left by Pseudo-Gods and True Gods naturally differ a lot.
2 million Seven Stars Points was already higher than what Li Yuan had anticipated the value to be.
To create a Visualization Method, gods would usually spend at least several months, or even several years… The time spent was not important; the key issue was that it would consume their own soul origin power, severely affecting their cultivation.
Therefore, unless there were significant benefits, such as for close kin, cherished friends, or highly valued disciples… gods generally would not create Visualization Methods.
“Forget it. I’ll keep this Visualization Method for now.” Li Yuan shook his head and waved his hand to put away the Visualization Method.
Immediately afterward, Li Yuan waved his hand again, and a pile of Divine Crystals with different auras appeared in midair.
“Alliance Hierarch.”
“Here are a total of 28 Fangshen Crystals.” Li Yuan said: “Adding my Seven Stars Points and the treasures I showed earlier… that should be about enough to purchase these treasures.”
From the Ming Xu Star Realm, Li Yuan had obtained about 60 Fangshen Crystals of the Five Elements, plus some he had accumulated himself, totaling 65 Fangshen Crystals.
It pained him to part with nearly half of them now.
But wealth in the form of treasures was meant to be transformed into value, so Li Yuan did not hesitate much longer.
“You do have quite a few Divine Crystals,” Dongfang Ji said with a smile: “Okay, what you have offered is enough.”
Swoosh!
A red light swept by, and ripples spread through space. Li Yuan’s offered treasures and Divine Crystals had all disappeared into the void.
“Within seven days, I will deliver all the treasures you require to your Seven Stars Mountain Palace,” Dongfang Ji said: “For now, until you have accumulated enough strength, you should continue to stay on Seven Stars Mountain.”
“Yes,” Li Yuan nodded.
As a newly achieved Martial Artist of the Flying Heaven rank, he indeed had a lot of room for improvement and was not in a hurry to venture out.
“When you feel that your strength is sufficient and no longer wish to stay in Feixing, come to see me,” Dongfang Ji looked at Li Yuan, “By then, you should go back to Blue Star.”
“Return to Blue Star?” Li Yuan was stirred.
In an instant.
Li Yuan recalled the Alliance Hierarch’s previous words, that when he achieved the Flying Heaven rank, he would take up the position of the principal.
“The Seven Great Planets have many dangerous locations to defend. The Demigods are scattered across the planets, and we have always been stretched thin, which is why wars break out so often,” Dongfang Ji explained: “I had no demands of you in the past… but once you possess the combat power of a Demigod, you will inevitably have to shoulder some responsibilities.”
“I understand,” Li Yuan said solemnly.
For decades, the reason the entire civilization had remained relatively stable was inseparably linked to the many Demigods and Flying Heaven Martial Artists guarding the entrances to various Star Realms.
As Li Yuan prepared to leave.
“You’ve achieved the rank of Flying Heaven; I should give you a congratulatory gift,” Dongfang Ji suddenly said: “Go to the left, inside there is a cavern. Within the cavern are some Star Technique inheritances. You may choose any one Star Technique to cultivate… Detailed instructions will be provided.”
“Star Technique inheritance?” Li Yuan was secretly astonished, suddenly recalling something that Bai Shan Semi-Divine had mentioned before.
There were incomplete Supreme Star Techniques within the Seven Star Civilization.
But on the ‘Star Technique exchange list’ of the Seven Stars Treasury, he could only see up to Seventh Layer Star Techniques.
Could it be…
“Yes, Alliance Hierarch.” Li Yuan turned around, following the guidance of the Alliance Hierarch, quickly stepping through the void, and passing through a mysterious mist.
Suddenly.
Lights shone brightly before him, and a mysterious cavern truly appeared. The surface of the cavern was emitting a faint golden light, which seemed tacky but also carried a rather restrained might.
“This cavern itself is a treasure,” Li Yuan thought silently: “Just how many treasures does the Alliance Hierarch have?”
He walked straight into the cavern.
Whoosh~
“Li Yuan, hello.” An array of light converged, taking the shape of an elderly man in a white robe, who greeted him with a smile: “My surname is Yun. We’ve communicated before.”
“Mr. Yun?” Li Yuan instantly recognized the man’s identity.
“If you are here, it means that the Alliance Hierarch has truly acknowledged you; you now truly rank among the highest echelons of the Seven Star Civilization,” the white-robed elder said with a smile: “Most Demigods within the civilization are unaware of the ‘Star Technique World.'”
Star Technique World? Li Yuan curiously looked around the cavern, which was filled with densely packed Inheritance Crystal Stones.
“As instructed by the Alliance Hierarch, you may choose any one Star Technique inheritance,” the white-robed elder said with a smile: “At the same time, once chosen, you will also directly receive the related treasures necessary for cultivation up to the Third Rank limit.”
“This is the gift from the Alliance Hierarch.”
“Take a look and see if there is any Star Technique you’d like.” With a wave of his hand, the white-robed elder caused a screen of light to appear to his right, displaying a dense list of Star Technique names and detailed explanations.
Li Yuan glanced at it.
“Nine Layer Star Technique ‘Void Golden Body’ (up to the Sixth Rank): Metal Vein Star Technique, Body Refining Category…”
“Nine Layer Star Technique ‘True Solution of the Heaven Metal Star Vein’ (up to the Sixth Rank): Metal Vein…”
“Nine Layer Star Technique ‘Heaven and Earth River’ (up to the Sixth Layers): Earth Vein Star Technique, Domain Category…”
“Nine Layer Star Technique ‘Void Golden Body’ (up to the Sixth Rank): Metal Vein Star Technique, Body Refining Category…”
“Nine Layer Star Technique ‘True Solution of the Heaven Metal Star Vein’ (up to the Sixth Rank): Metal Vein…”
“Nine Layer Star Technique ‘Heaven and Earth River’ (up to the Sixth Layers): Earth Vein Star Technique, Domain Category…”
