Chapter 246 (continued)

The Flower of Evil, who was busy in the Evil Domain, suddenly felt a chill on his face and couldn't help but sneeze.

"Yes," the Flower of Evil said confidently, "According to the customs and traditions of Huaxia, someone is thinking of this Divine Venerable."

Who could it be?

"It must be Li Yang, it was so easy to guess!"

The Flower of Evil happily continued to tend to the Ninth Grade Sacred Heart Flower.

After Lianxin advanced to the Eighth Grade, she consumed far more Ninth Grade Lotus Seed than she had imagined. If it weren't for their abundance of Ninth Grade Lotus Seed, she would have been stuck at the cultivation level.

Li Yang said, "Although lotus seeds consume a lot,... I don't need to sacrifice my lifespan."

Upon hearing that it wouldn't cost her lifespan, Lianxin's expression filled with joy, and she said with great enthusiasm, "Then I'll plant more lotus seeds!"

Li Yang laughed and said, "It's alright, I got this lifespan for free, so it's fine. As for our lotus seeds... never mind, growing lotus seeds isn't difficult for you!"

After Lianxin advanced to the Eighth Grade, she not only became self-sufficient, but also helped Li Yang accumulate a large amount of lifespan.

However, she was not in a hurry to advance, but planned to wait for Lianxin to advance to the Divine Venerable Realm first.

Firstly, Lianxin was no longer being devoured by the Authority of Space, which put her at ease. Secondly, Li Yang didn't want her cultivation level to improve too quickly.

She must hold onto these ten years firmly, giving the Huaxia Heavenly Palace enough time to prepare for war.

Even in a small Realm Domain with such an exaggerated flow of time, and with the burning of lifespan and the accumulation of a large number of Ninth Grade Lotus Seed, it still took the Lianxin two full Huaxia years to advance to the Ninth Grade.

On average, Li Yang can harvest ten lotus seeds a day. Over the past two Huaxia years, she has harvested 7,300 grade Ninth Grade Lotus Seed.

This number... would probably cause a stir throughout the entire Astral Realm.

However, the Lianxin also consumed more than 3,000 grade Ninth Grade Lotus Seed.

Li Yang sighed deeply.

To assume Authority of God ahead of time is something no ordinary person can do.

The more than 3,000 Ninth Grade Lotus Seed were a price the holder could not afford.

If the Lianxin couldn't grow itself, then there wouldn't be so many Ninth Grade Innate Sacred Object in the entire Astral Realm!

Therefore, Lianxin will be forever stuck at the Eighth Grade Realm and will continue to suffer the backlash from the Authority of God.

Who could stand this?

Therefore, seizing Authority of God beforehand only leads to death.

Li Yang also felt a deep sense of awe towards these Authority of God.

Unless one reaches the Ninth Grade Great Perfection, one cannot easily take on this responsibility.

Even... does reaching the Ninth Grade Great Perfection necessarily mean wielding Authority of God?

Li Yang thought of the old pavilion master's notes...

She had a vague feeling that perhaps these Authority of God were the true foundation of the Lotus Domain's existence.

Of course, these are all things to be discussed later.

Li Yang now needs Authority of God to destroy the Upper Three Realms.

Only by eliminating this malignant tumor in the Upper Three Realms can we begin to consider how to heal the Lotus Domain.

After the Lianxin reached the Ninth Grade, it consumed even more lotus seeds. Fortunately, they had enough in stock, and since they no longer needed a lifespan, the actual time consumed was much less.

Looking at the dwindling number of lotus seeds, Lianxin said, "Fellow Daoist... I've used up all these lotus seeds..."

He originally intended to give all the lotus seeds to Li Yang, but unexpectedly, he ended up using them all himself.

Li Yang smiled and said, "What are you thinking? I've gained countless lifespans and lifespan limits! That's the most important thing to me. Besides, as long as we preserve the 'seeds,' you'll be able to grow countless lotus seeds again in just a few years."

Lianxin nodded in agreement, silently thinking to herself.

He will grow ten times, a hundred times more, grade- Ninth Grade Lotus Seed seeds for Li Yang in the future!

For others, the most difficult part of cultivation is going from the Ninth-Grade Supreme to the Divine Venerable Realm, but for Lianxin, it is the easiest.

When he advanced to the Ninth Grade Great Perfection, he reached the Divine Venerable Realm almost instantly.

The imagery of ascending to the Divine Venerable Realm suddenly filled the entire small Realm Domain.

Li Yang looked up and felt that the scene was magnificent.

She even felt that this small Realm Domain had become a new Realm Domain.

The enormous lotus flower, slowly unfolding, filled the entire sky and occupied the entire Realm Domain.

A phantom shadow, accompanied by a faint fragrance and an overwhelming abundance of Power of Nature...

All of this was slowly surrounding Li Yang, like stars surrounding the Sun.

Li Yang chuckled softly and said, "This small Realm Domain... is likely to become even rarer."

Originally, this small Realm Domain was already a treasure of the Astral Realm due to the flow of time.

However, such Realm Domain has a fatal flaw: it contains almost no Power of Starlight.

This is also the way of maintaining balance in the Astral Realm.

But now, because Lianxin has advanced to the complete Divine Venerable Realm here, and because he holds the Authority of Space in this world...

Therefore, this small Realm Domain has broken through the constraints, possessing not only an exaggerated flow of time but also a natural, Power of Nature.

If someone from the Nature Department were to come and cultivate, their cultivation speed would probably be a thousand miles a day!

It's just unknown whether this Realm Domain will still have so much Power of Nature after Lianxin Realm Domain.

Li Yang was overwhelmed by the sights and couldn't help but sigh softly, "So beautiful."

A dazzling spectacle appeared on the horizon, and a snow-white figure slowly descended from the sky. His silver hair cascaded down like a waterfall, and his elegant robes outlined his tall and graceful figure. His skin was as white as warm jade, and his whole being radiated a gentle light. His eyelashes were lowered, and his eyes were holy and pure, so beautiful that people forgot to breathe.

"Fellow Daoist..." he called softly to Li Yang, his voice carrying a power that shook the very nerves, making it difficult for people to hear what he was saying.

Li Yang looked up at him, her eyes full of admiration. "Lianlian, you truly are the only treasure in this Astral Realm."

Lianxin: "..."

He knew that Li Yang was simply stating an objective fact.

The Lianxin is born in the Lotus Domain.

It is indeed a treasure of the Astral Realm.

Li Yang's words did not contain the meaning he had imagined.

But he longed to tell Li Yang that, to him, the only true treasure in the world was her.

Li Yang stepped forward, took Lianxin's hand, and said with a smile, "I always feel like if I don't hold onto you, you'll fly away."

Lianxin grasped her hand in return, shaking her head and saying, "I won't leave..."

Li Yang: "I know, but I won't let you leave!"

Lianxin's eyelashes fluttered, and she stared intently at her.

Li Yang just thought he was too handsome, so handsome that it was...

Ahem, with a major battle imminent, what nonsense are you thinking about!

Li Yang's expression hardened, and he said, "From now on, I'll have to trouble you to protect me!"

Lianxin: "Mmm."

Ten years have passed, and more than half of them have already gone by.

Li Yang plans to first advance to the Ninth-Grade Supreme, then go out to see the situation outside, and then consider whether to advance to the Divine Venerable Realm.

The moment she advances to the Divine Venerable Realm will also be the moment of the final battle.

Li Yang suppressed the feelings that were beginning to stir in her heart and focused on improving her cultivation level.

She has accumulated countless lifespans.

Even if it only adds 2 million years per day on average, it will still be an extremely terrifying number over the years.

Looking at this number, Li Yang felt at ease.

She can finally go all out!

She no longer had to live in fear, terrified that her life was in danger!

Even if Sister Longevity asks for an exorbitant amount, she can still afford it.

For Li Yang, breaking through the realm through battle was actually the easiest way.

When Li Yang killed the Eighth Grade Realm member of the Lost Space Society, he was also filled with emotion.

She was able to successfully retreat here because of the many people who have been quietly contributing.

Lianxin provided her with a long lifespan by cultivating lotus seeds, while her masters outside were constantly selecting suitable candidates for her to break through to higher realms through battle.

Li Yang only needs to press a button here to start the battle.

However, it would be no easy task for Si Kui and her group to capture a member of the Lost Space Society whose cultivation level was so high.

Li Yang even ran into an acquaintance.

Kong Shisan's boss, Mi Liu.

Upon seeing Li Yang, Mi Liu raved incoherently, "That traitor Kong Shisan, he lied to me! He actually tricked me into coming here..."

Li Yang: "?"

She knew that Kong Shisan had already pledged allegiance to the Huaxia Heavenly Palace, and that he had indeed provided Star Nexus Pavilion with a lot of useful information based on his accumulated experience in the Lost Space Society.

Li Yang just didn't expect that he would actually trick Mi Liu into coming here...

Although Li Yang had never asked her teacher how they had captured these members of the Lost Space Society, now... after seeing Mi Liu, she had a rough idea.

Kong Shisan must have played a crucial role...

This guy must have Lost Space Society, and that's how he caught so many high-level Star Wielders.

Li Yang didn't have a good impression of Mi Liu.

She acted swiftly.

Mi Liu gritted his teeth and said, "Arrogant Nature Department, I will make you die by breaking through your cultivation realm through battle!"

He fought back fiercely and confronted Li Yang.

However... nowadays Li Yang doesn't even put Sage in his eyes, so how could he be afraid of this mere "Mi" generation?

After defeating Mi Liu, Li Yang successfully advanced to the Ninth Grade!

Strange phenomena reappeared in the Realm Domain.

What she didn't know was that this strange phenomenon had pierced through the entire small Realm Domain and spread to the Huaxia Heavenly Palace!

Countless snow-white pear blossoms bloom in profusion.

The Huaxia Heavenly Palace was as if it had been blanketed in white snow, but instead of bringing coldness, it brought warmth and nourished the Spirit Sea of everyone present.

The immense Power of Nature spreads out along with countless pear blossoms.

Everyone in the Nature Department sensed it; they all awoke from their seclusion and gazed at the distant horizon.

Even though Li Yang wasn't physically present, they felt Li Yang omnipresence.

The blooming pear blossoms nourished their spirits and awakened their Sparse Words, Natural Heart Sutra.
