Beirut had always admired Li Yue's talent, partly because Li Yue had come from the Yulan continent, and partly because of Li Yue's power and talent.
Despite having trained for such a short period of time, Linley had already surpassed countless people, and now stood at the very peak of the Infernal Realm as a Paragon. Beirut felt great admiration for him as well.
But admiration was just admiration. More than that, he felt pity.
"Why isn't he a Paragon of Water or Earth? Why does he have to be of the Edicts? What a pity! "
If Li Yue had been an Earth or Water expert, then Beirut definitely would have paid close attention to him and bestowed upon him a Sovereign spark. Unfortunately, Li Yue was not; he trained in the Four Edicts.
Although becoming a Paragon of the Edicts was very powerful, compared to becoming a Sovereign, he was still unfathomably weaker.
"What a pity. Although Paragons are rare, without becoming Sovereigns, they won't be able to help me …"
…..
Just as Beirut was sighing, Li Yue had already found a quiet and beautiful place to train at the bottom of the Starmist Sea.
It was different from the surface of the sea.
In the depths of the sea that formed the Starmist Sea, there were countless living creatures beneath the light violet water. Most of them were mindless beasts, but occasionally, one could see large, carnivorous water-type divine beasts.
There were strange lanternfishes with long tentacles, covered in violet scales, and covered in tentacles. Every single tentacle was like a lamp that flickered with a faint fluorescent light, illuminating the dark depths of the sea.
There were also strange, unmoving shellfish that floated at the bottom of the sea. They were as large as small mountains, with long mouths that breathed in and out water-type divine power. Occasionally, they would swallow some small fish and digest them.
Long-furred water apes, water-type dragons, violet-gold giant crabs, flashing fish, snake-headed, bird-winged divine beasts with mouths full of sharp teeth …
There were too many. The bottom of the sea was far more interesting than the surface of the sea. But of course, it was also far more dangerous.
This was because within the reefs and corals, there was no telling when something might charge out from the darkness. It might be a ferocious divine beast, or it might be a hidden practitioner or a bandit.
…..
In a coral jungle on the seabed, strange ores were solidified in the corals, emitting colorful lights like electric lamps, illuminating the area.
At the edge of the seabed, a gigantic clam, tens of miles long and wide, was lying there with its mouth slightly open, swallowing and spitting out seawater.
He didn't know what kind of species that clam was. Its entire body was like jade, emitting a gentle jade light. When it opened its mouth, there was a layer of membrane that blocked the seawater. When he entered the clam's shell, he could clearly see a huge piece of land. There were mountains, rivers, and living creatures. The area was huge, covering dozens of miles.
Looking up, there were many pearls adorning the shell of the clam in the sky above this piece of land. They were like bright suns providing light.
This clamshell space was the place Li Yue chose to live and cultivate.
It was quiet, secluded, and the environment was good. It was not monotonous and boring.
"Although there are many reefs and coral islands at the bottom of the sea, they are not hidden. Many gods who come here do not like to settle down there."
"Instead, it is these shell-like creatures at the bottom of the sea that are naturally waterproof and have a unique internal structure that is often the best place to cultivate!"
Li Yue floated in the giant clamshell space. Looking at the island below, he slowly descended.
This was the first time he had seen such a strange thing. After entering the seabed, he had encountered many different types of clams. They were all strange and strange, with different colors and sizes.
On the way here, he had taken a fancy to this jade-like clam. First, it was beautiful. Second, it was large. Third, it was very secluded.
"I'll settle down here. If I settle down here, it will be difficult for others to find me!"
Even a Sovereign didn't have the ability to find him in the boundless Stellar Fog Sea. After all, the seabed was far too large, and there were countless places suitable for cultivation. Sovereigns weren't omniscient and omnipotent, so how could they find him?
It was very safe.
In the center of the clamshell space, he found a place with mountains and rivers. He released the metallic lifeform and transformed it into a courtyard, where he lived.
Henceforth, he settled down here.
Every day, every second, besides cultivating, there was nothing else to do.
He meditated on the ripples of time, comprehending the mysteries of time, slowly enriching himself.
His speed in comprehending the Laws of Time was extremely fast. He had learned this long ago, and so it was as though there were no obstructions at all. He advanced at a steady pace, slowly gaining insights into the Laws of Time.
Li Yue didn't know the reason.
But he could roughly guess that it was because his soul was intrinsically superior to everything else. As for comprehending the Laws of Time and the Laws of Time, it was just an act of starting all over again.
Naturally, he was extremely fast.
Just like that, in the blink of an eye, three thousand years passed.
… …
In the outer sea close to the Redbud Continent – the Chaotic Sea. Along the seashore, a youth with a sinister face was flying through the air. He released his divine sense and scanned the area below him.
"Damn. Three thousand years. Three thousand years, but I still haven't found a single clue. The subordinates of the Chief Sovereign haven't found a single clue either. Where is that fellow, exactly?"
The sinister youth was extremely fast, flashing through the skies like a ray of light. He didn't conceal his aura in the slightest, and everywhere he passed, everything was deathly silent. Not a single Deity dared to move.
Only after he flew past did the Deities who had been scanned let out long sighs of relief.
"Too terrifying. An expert like this is at least a Seven Star Fiend, or perhaps even more powerful!"
"Right. Only, I wonder what this lord is looking for?"
"Don't meddle in other people's business. Ted, you haven't been in the Infernal Realm for long. You don't know how terrifying this place is. Many experts have bad tempers. Once you anger them …"
… …
One day after another, he searched without any results. His subordinates reported back with no results at all. This sort of futile effort caused the sinister youth's heart to be filled with rage.
"Don't let me find you. Although you are a Paragon as well, how can a newly ascended Paragon be a match for me, Nicardia?"
"Although I can't kill you, I can delay you. Once the Chief Sovereign arrives, you will definitely die!"
Right. This person was one of the Chief Sovereign's Emissaries under the command of the Chief Sovereign of Light, and the most powerful of them all. He was a Paragon of the Laws of Light … Nicardia.
And the person he was searching for was Li Yue.
He, an exalted Paragon, was actually being used to search for someone. Naturally, Nicardia was incomparably furious. However, this was an order from the Chief Sovereign of Light, and so he naturally couldn't get angry at him. All he could do was suppress his anger and wait until he found Li Yue.
"And those pieces of trash under the Sovereign's command. Tens of thousands of Highgods have been searching for so many years, but they haven't found anything at all. The same goes for the Fiend Castle. There's no information on that fellow either. I can't even buy him!"
How depressing.
Nicardia wanted nothing more than to slaughter everyone in the outer regions of the Chaotic Sea, but he couldn't do so. The Chaotic Sea wasn't his territory, nor was it the Divine Realm of Light. If he went too far, not only would he attract the attention of the Seven Sovereigns of the Infernal Realm, those hidden Paragons wouldn't let him off either.
For example, there was an 'old friend' in the outer seas, a Paragon … Dunnington.
"Forget it. I imagine there's no trace of that fellow in the outer seas. I'll go search the other continents!"
… …
Right at this moment, in the depths of the Starmist Sea, within the clamshell dimension, Li Yue suddenly opened his eyes.
"The Laws of Time … I've finally reached perfection!"
