High-Level Martial Era

```

Seven Star Mountain, in the Martial Arts Room of the villa residence.

The Martial Arts Room belonging to Seven Star Mountain members was even more massive compared to those of ordinary and elite members.

Both the length and width reached one kilometer, and the height was an astonishing 200 meters... Such a vast Martial Arts Room was enough for a Prime Warrior practicing True Intent to cultivate moves.

Li Yuan was standing in the center of the Martial Arts Room.

Whoosh!~ Accompanied by an invisible fluctuation, Li Yuan's figure moved, and instantly he split into two shadows, wearing clothes of identical design, completely indistinguishable to the naked eye.

Two Li Yuans

Boom! Boom!

Both shadows moved at the same time, instantly bursting out with terrifying speed. In a mere blink, they had both dashed hundreds of meters across the ground.

Immediately after, one of the Li Yuan's shadows moved again.

The two shadows instantly became three.

"This 'Shadow Division Technique' cultivated to the Second Order Limit is truly astonishing in its effectiveness. It actually allows me to invoke the Mystery of Wind and form two Phantom Bodies in an instant," Li Yuan thought in amazement: "Before I started cultivating, I could hardly form even one Phantom Body."

The Mystery of Wind has many aspects that one could explore, some of which are inclined towards speed, pursuing extreme Burst Speed.

Some tend towards 'Shadow Stealth,' like Lude Nef, who specializes in this path, extremely adept at assassinating his opponents.

However, from the beginning, Li Yuan was aiming at integrating with the Mysteries of Earth, emphasizing the 'Phantom Body' aspect of the Mysteries of Wind, sharing similarities with Lude Nef's path, yet not entirely the same.

"A normal Fifth Stage Perfection's comprehension, forming even one Phantom Body is difficult." Li Yuan revealed a hint of a smile: "Yet with the help of Star Technique, I managed to form two Phantom Bodies."

"And each Phantom Body possesses a certain degree of attacking power, with even more deceiving qualities," he continued.

Star Technique, in essence, is about maximizing the potential of one's body and the comprehension of the mysteries of heaven and earth to make oneself perform at two hundred, or even three hundred percent strength.

"Combining the Mysteries of Earth and Wind," Li Yuan's thoughts moved again, invoking the True Meaning of Earth.

Boom!

Within a few tens of meters, fine yellow streams of earthy energy formed, as the three Li Yuans in the Domain employed their movement technique, moving unpredictably and with shocking speed.

"In the Domain, the Phantom Body is like a fish in water," he remarked.

"On their own, my True Meaning of Earth and Mystery of Wind would not be considered strong among Flying Heaven Warriors," Li Yuan's eyes flickered with anticipation: "But combined, in terms of pure skill, I should be approaching many Flying Heaven Peak powerhouses."

"I chose the right path," Li Yuan thought to himself.

The deeper one goes in skill comprehension, the harder it becomes.

Talented individuals like Lude Nef and Yu Jinghe, young leaders of a generation in the Seven Star Civilization, took over 10 years just to advance the Mysteries of True Intent from Initial Rank of Sixth Stage to the Intermediate Rank.

During his year following Lie Feng Semi Divine, Li Yuan dedicated most of his effort to the comprehension of the Mystery of Wind.

If he had focused on the comprehension of the Mystery of Earth, with Li Yuan's training pace, one could say that there was a certain hope to advance the True Meaning of Earth to the Intermediate Rank of Sixth Stage... but that wasn't a sure thing either.

Even if he did break through with the True Meaning of Earth, his overall strength would still be far less than it is now.

"Combination of Mysteries, has its pros and cons," Li Yuan mused: "But at least for now, combining the two Mysteries of heaven and earth seem to promote each other, the advantages outweighing the disadvantages."

Whew!

With a thought, the two Phantom Bodies Li Yuan had manifested dissipated.

"Hm?"

"The mission application has been approved?" Li Yuan glanced down at the smart ring on his hand.

Applying for a mission also needed upper-level approval to qualify to participate in battle.

"Time to go." Li Yuan quickly packed up his belongings and then headed to the palace exterior.

Swoosh!

Turning into a streak of light, he flew toward the entrance to the Martial Divine Star Realm.

Not long after.

After passing through the identity check at the entrance, Li Yuan smoothly entered the passage... Ordinary members of Martial Divine Hall were not allowed to leave at will without permission.

...In the wartime base outside.

Inside a conference room.

"Haha, Yan Jing, it turns out to be you." Dean Hai laughed: "I was guessing who had taken the mission, never would have thought it was you."

"I must also congratulate you on successfully condensing True Intent," Dean Hai laughingly continued: "To become a True Intent Prime Warrior, you're among the elite in the Martial Divine Star Realm, no doubt stronger than me in the future, and the school will be proud of you."

"The student dares not," Yan Jing laughed: "I can only say I haven't disgraced the school."

"The student also didn't expect, Dean Hai, that it would be you coming to pick us up," he added.

Apart from Li Yuan, Yan Jing and Jin Huguo have been the most outstanding students at Kunlun Martial University in recent decades.

Yan Jing was from the Second Academy and was not one of Dean Hai's students.

But now seeing each other again, they felt a sense of closeness.

"You've just condensed True Intent, are you sure you're up for it?" Dean Hai inquired, still somewhat worried.

"Rest assured, Dean Hai."

"I've been cultivating my Star Technique to the utmost for many years," Yan Jing said with a smile: "Now that True Intent has broken through, with just a little adaptation, I'll be able to exert my strength to the fullest."

"That's good," nodded Dean Hai: "You're Seven Star Mountain 31, do you know who 32 is? Is it a True Intent Prime Warrior?"

"32? Number 32 also applied for combat?" Yan Jing was taken aback at first.

He hadn't seen the latest rankings of Seven Star Mountain yet.

Suddenly, Yan Jing thought of news from a few days ago and a figure he was considering mentioning...

"Dean Hai, Brother Yan Jing," a voice came from the door.

Then, a figure appeared, dressed in a black Battle Garment.

"Li Yuan? It's really you!" Yan Jing brightened up.

"Li Yuan?" Dean Hai was astounded.

...

The arrival of Li Yuan took both Yan Jing and Dean Hai by surprise.

Soon Dean Hai realized.
