The Planar World. Green mountains and clear waters.
Clear water flowed slowly through a winding river. Li Yue was seated in the lotus position in front of a wooden house by the river, his eyes closed as he meditated.
A month had quietly passed since the last battle. During this month, he had been sitting here, eyes closed, not moving at all.
The entire Crescent Castle had been locked down long ago. Once there was any activity, Li Yue would immediately know. But for now, it seemed as though not a single person had come.
This situation was quite normal. After all, Li Yue had easily instakilled a peak-stage Sovereign's Emissary in the previous battle. Everyone present had long since determined that he was a Paragon.
This news, after a month of spreading, had unknowingly spread throughout the entire Infernal Realm.
Even the Fiend Castle, after confirming that this news was true, very decisively canceled the bounty mission.
For a Paragon to have a bounty on him was an absolute joke. Who would have the power to accomplish it?
Aside from Paragons who could give Paragons a run for their money, only Sovereigns would be able to truly kill Highgod Paragons.
A mere ten drops of Sovereign's Might wasn't worth Paragons or Sovereigns taking action.
It was simply too laughable!
…..
After a month of closed-door training, Li Yue's body was still as clean as new. His nostrils twitched slightly, and one could clearly see streaks of gray energy puffing in and out of his body. With each puff, his aura seemed to grow slightly more powerful, and his face grew increasingly calm.
Whoosh.
After an indeterminate period of time, Li Yue, who had been motionless this entire time, suddenly opened his eyes. His mouth opened slightly, and a mouthful of turbid air came out of his mouth. One could clearly see a black stream of energy shoot out like a sharp sword, shooting several meters away before dispersing into black mist.
These were the impurities and the cells that had died out of his body. At this moment, they were all expelled from his body.
Originally, a Deity's body was incomparably pure, and was formed directly from divine power.
But Li Yue didn't choose to become a Deity outside his body. His flesh and blood was his divine body. Although it was pure, when the four types of divine power fused and transformed into that gray energy, all of the cells in his body were wildly strengthened, and the remaining divine power in his body became impurities as well.
In addition, the cells that had aged out of their metabolism also became impurities that were expelled from his body.
Simply put, it was a metamorphosis, or rather, an evolution.
In the words of the multiverse, it was a leap in the level of life. Half a step into the Grand Heavenly Realm, half a Fifth Dimensional lifeform.
"This feeling is really powerful!"
As Li Yue stood up, his muscles, bones, and skin crackled as he stood up. His muscles and bones exploded with a series of crackling sounds.
With a wave of his arm, the air was compressed and pulled apart like a viscous liquid, forcibly tearing apart a long gap. Even the space faintly fluctuated with this wave of his arm, creating light ripples like that of a river.
Very strong.
It was unprecedentedly powerful.
Li Yue could feel this feeling of fullness and completeness. Over the past month or so, the changes in his body had slowed down from the initial rapid metamorphosis to a gradual halt, cleansing every corner of his body.
The most direct one was the Divine Body.
He could feel how powerful his divine body was now. He only needed one punch to break the sky. This was not an illusion, but a genuine feeling. It was very direct and very calm.
Compared to before, his divine body was more than a hundred times stronger. In terms of pure strength, he could probably kill a Superior God with one punch, and it would be very easy.
Of course, this was only one aspect of the changes in his divine body. The other aspect was the divine power in his body. After the fusion of the four different divine powers, it had completely turned into an unfamiliar gray energy. This gray energy was not Chaos Qi or anything like that. After all, he was very familiar with Chaos Qi. However, this energy was very unfamiliar. It contained life and death, as well as destruction and fate. It was as if everything was within it, unique and different.
Li Yue did not define this gray divine power. This was because no matter whether it was his main body or this clone, there was no information about it in their memories. Therefore, he still had to slowly explore it.
However, in terms of lethality, this gray divine power was naturally incomparably powerful. None of the four divine powers in his body could compare to it. It was also very strong in terms of defense. Therefore, whether it was defense or attack, it was perfect.
"Compared to the Sovereign's Might, it's too weak!"
The Sovereign's Might contained the will of the Sovereign. It naturally carried a powerful pressure. Although Li Yue's strength had undergone a metamorphosis, he was even more aware of the gap between him and the Sovereign now.
The Sovereign was a Grand Heavenly level expert. In this universe, they could be considered as Grand Heavenly level experts who were forcefully raised. They had power but no realm. However, a Grand Heavenly level was still a Grand Heavenly level. Below the Grand Heavenly level, everything was just an ant.
Now, Li Yue was also an ant in front of the Sovereign.
However, Li Yue was not afraid nor worried.
To him, the future path was already very clear. Now, he only needed to take it step by step and advance steadily. Then, he would succeed smoothly.
The first step was to stabilize his current strength. Then, he would comprehend the Law of Time to perfection and jump out of time to become a Grand Heavenly level.
The second step was to comprehend the Law of Space to perfection.
The third step was to fuse time and space to become one and jump out of this universe.
That's right, it was that simple.
Although it sounded like a few simple steps, Li Yue estimated that it would probably take hundreds of millions of years. He would only succeed if he took it step by step.
Divine power, divine body, and the small gray ball formed after the Divine Spark shattered and fused together in his mind were the various changes this time.
Putting everything else aside, Li Yue was very concerned about the small ball formed after the four Divine Sparks shattered and fused together. Because that was the embryonic form of the Law of Time.
"It's just that it's not perfect yet. I need to fuse and comprehend it step by step. It will probably take thousands of years!"
Thousands of years was Li Yue's estimation. Now, he could clearly feel the mysteries of time every day. He was improving every moment. At this speed, thousands of years was more than enough for him to succeed smoothly.
"However, I can't stay in this Crescent Castle anymore!"
"I killed a Sovereign's messenger and his descendant. Although I don't know who this Sovereign is, I'm still not a match for the Sovereign now. I can only leave this place first!"
Although the Sovereign might not necessarily take action, after all, the Sovereign still wanted to save face. However, for his own safety, Li Yue still chose to leave this place cautiously and find a quiet place suitable for cultivation to slowly cultivate.
As for where exactly to go, he did not know. He was not sure yet.
However, Hell was so big and boundless. It was not easy to find a suitable place. He only needed to hurry along and search. At the same time, he could also enjoy the scenery of Hell along the way. It was the best of both worlds.
A day later, in the sky above the Lake of Death, Li Yue's figure turned into a ray of light and disappeared into the sky.
