Capítulo 1517: Chapter 673: Li Shu! Master of the Purple Fire Divine King_3
“It’s difficult for a Divine King to take on apprentices… If I had the chance, I’d be happy to be taken on by a Divine Monarch.”
“You? Ranked over two hundred, and you think a Divine Monarch would take you as an apprentice?”
“Can’t even imagine it? Then why cultivate at all?” Many of these demigods were familiar with each other and were secretly exchanging thoughts.
Everyone harbored desires in their hearts.
For them, being taken on by a Divine Monarch is an opportunity, but being taken on by a Divine King is like ascending to heaven in a single step.
While the top ten demigod geniuses at the forefront had varying thoughts.
“I gave it my all and fought to first place in the talent battle.” The blue-clad youth with a dark aura silently chanted in his heart, “I’m also of the Nine Star Pulse, and I’ve obtained the Emperor Origin, cultivated two Perfect Star Skills, even comprehended the Law of Earth… Surely some Divine King will take notice of me.”
He is ‘Zhu Xia’, the leading genius of this generation from the Source Fire Star.
He had already been taken on by a Divine Monarch early on.
Before the battle, he remembered his master’s advice: ‘I have little left to teach you, so in this battle, you must show your full strength. If you can be taken on by a Divine King, your future chances of becoming a Divine Monarch, or even a Top Divine Monarch, will greatly increase.’
The black-clad girl was also quietly waiting.
“The Divine Kings should be able to see through the true years of my cultivation,” Li Shu thought to herself, “Perhaps, there’s real hope.”
Suddenly.
“Li Shu, Qi Dao…you eight, come forth to see me.” A deep voice reverberated through the heavens, like the voice of the sky, echoing throughout the Divine Ship.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
All demigod gazes immediately focused on those eight, everyone understood… Those eight were being chosen.
“Could it be I’m not among them?” Zhu Xia’s heart sank.
He was already under a Divine Monarch, so naturally no other Divine Monarch would take him… Not having his name called, only meant no Divine King took notice of him.
Li Shu wasn’t overly excited because being in the top ten guaranteed she’d be chosen.
“I wonder, which Divine Monarch it will be,” Li Shu thought to herself. She longed for it, but didn’t dare hope there’d really be a Divine King choosing her.
It’s too rare.
She was utterly lacking in confidence; from what she knew, Divine Kings seldom took on apprentices.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The eight of them transformed into eight streams of light ascending to the sky, their figures quickly blurred, eliciting envy from the hundreds of thousands of demigods below… Who wouldn’t dream of becoming an apprentice?
…
High above the Divine Ship.
Led by several Heavenly Gods, Li Shu and the other eight demigod geniuses each took their positions, all holding their breath with heads bowed, not daring to lift their heads.
They couldn’t help it.
Standing there.
They saw the entire layout of the Divine Ship, the figures standing with no place to sit were all Heavenly Gods… With tens of thousands of Heavenly Gods, how astonishing?
And the majestic figures high above, their aura more intense, were even more soul-stirring.
All were the legendary Divine Kings.
Such a scene gathered countless powerful eyes on them… How could those eight demigods not be trembling? Fearful of any breach of etiquette.
“Qi Dao, do you wish to join my sect?” The White Ape Divine Monarch spoke.
“Disciple desires it.” Qi Dao immediately prostrated himself on the ground, kowtowing respectfully, “Greetings, Master.”
“Good.” The White Ape Divine Monarch nodded, waved his hand, and Qi Dao flew up to land beside him.
One after another, the Divine Monarchs began to ask.
Masters choose followers, followers choose masters.
If any demigod did not wish to apprentice, these Divine Monarchs certainly wouldn’t force them, but none refused, as expected.
Only Li Shu remained.
“Am I last?” Li Shu thought to herself, “I wonder, which Divine Monarch would choose me.”
The previous seven were all taken by Divine Monarchs.
Instinctively, she too believed it was a Divine Monarch who would choose her.
But!
The Heavenly Gods far off didn’t know, but the thousand high-seated Divine Kings were aware, their eyes keenly observing Li Shu.
Wondering why.
Now.
From the highest throne on the Divine Ship, the presence in Li Shu’s eyes, somewhat blurred with an unclear face, yet with a vast aura like the embodiment of the cosmos, suddenly spoke, with a voice echoing within the Divine Ship: “Li Shu, do you wish to join my sect.”
Boom!
A stone stirred a thousand ripples.
“What?”
“Heart Origin God King taking on an apprentice?”
“What?” The seven newly apprenticed demigods, and even the thousands within the Divine Ship, were incredulously witnessing the scene.
None expected the Heart Origin God King to take an apprentice.
Especially those seven demigod geniuses, who had been filled with joy, now gazed at Li Shu with envy and jealousy.
That is the Heart Origin God King!
A great being who succeeded in becoming the Palace Master of Jue Xing Emperor Palace through cultivation over a millennium! It’s said he’s destined to become the Supreme Divine Emperor!
“Me?”
“Heart Origin God King taking on an apprentice?” Li Shu was bewildered, uproar surging within her heart, though she had a sliver of hope to join a Divine King’s sect.
But hadn’t expected.
It would be the Heart Origin God King!
“I would like that.”
Suppressing her excitement, Li Shu without hesitation knelt toward the highest throne on the Divine Ship: “Disciple Li Shu, greets Master.”
“Hmm.” Li Yuan nodded, waved his hand.
Li Shu immediately vanished from her spot, reappearing next to a black-robed Heavenly God, who smiled at her.
“Me?” Li Shu was still processing.
“Li Shu junior sister, I am the Sword Demon.” The Sword Demon Divine Monarch smiled: “According to Master Uncle’s command, stay with me until the celebration ends, after the banquet, you will meet Master Uncle.”
After millennia closed off.
The Sword Demon Heavenly God also reached from Fourth Rank to Fifth Rank, earning the Divine Monarch title, becoming the latest Divine Monarch of the Divine Court.
“Junior sister? Master Uncle?” Li Shu was puzzled.
“Our sect’s founder is the supreme Jue Xing Divine Emperor,” the Sword Demon Divine Monarch patiently explained: “My master is the Dong Mang God King, the former Palace Master.”
“Heart Origin God King is my Master Uncle.” The Sword Demon Divine Monarch explained: “I’ve always worked for Master Uncle, following my master.”
“Greetings, senior brother.” Li Shu responded quickly.
…
After the demigod talent battle ended, the banquet continued for several days until the celebration finally reached its end, and powerful figures from various great forces began to depart.
Some who wanted to have special meetings with Li Yuan, or exchange ideas with other Chaos Divine Court God Kings.
Like the Mingyu God King, were invited to individual small worlds to wait.
“Sword Demon.”
“Bring Li Shu to my palace.” Li Yuan instructed: “Await my summons.”
“Yes.” The Sword Demon Heavenly God took Li Shu away.
Li Yuan then turned to the Purple Fire God King, smiling: “Brother Purple Fire, please.”
“Indeed.” Purple Fire God King nodded.
Whir~
With the alteration of time and space, the two left the Divine Ship, entering a small world near the Chaos Continent, where there was still an individual palace.
Fairly secluded.
Various Immortal Brews and delicacies were arranged on the desk.
“Please sit.” Li Yuan cordially said, only after both were seated did he begin: “Brother Purple Fire, with just the two of us here, may we speak?”
During the preceding ten or so days of the banquet, he and the Purple Fire God King had exchanged many words, their personalities markedly compatible, making for a pleasant conversation.
“Haha, indeed.”
“I won’t hold back.” Purple Fire God King smiled: “Brother Heart Origin, my master is one of the three elders of the Tianluo Universe Alliance, ‘Cloud Moon Divine Emperor’.”
“This name, I imagine, is not unfamiliar to you, Brother Heart Origin.” Purple Fire God King smiled at Li Yuan.
Cloud Moon Divine Emperor?
Li Yuan understood, indeed!
Earlier mentions by Purple Fire about orders from his master led Li Yuan to suspect… Little Tomb had mentioned, back in the day, Beihai Supreme left a legacy, with three disciples.
One died at the God King Realm, the other two ultimately became Divine Emperors; one as the Abyss Divine Emperor.
And the other is the Cloud Moon Divine Emperor of the Tianluo Universe Alliance.
“I see.” Li Yuan nodded.
The intelligence given by Jue Xing Divine Emperor had mentioned Cloud Moon Divine Emperor… This was a powerful and ancient peak Divine Emperor.
Long past eras saw them possess near-Dominator strength.
Today’s strength remains a mystery.
Certainly one of the top beings in the Tianluo Universe Alliance.
“Li Yuan.”
“Ask Purple Fire God King.” Little Tomb’s voice suddenly sounded: “How has Cloud Moon Divine Emperor fared in cultivation within ‘East Moon Palace’?”
