Chapter 811 - The Upper King Realm

Chapter 811 The Upper King Realm

The old faker froze for a moment and then laughed.

Okay, good. Im really happy that you have chosen that as your first question. I thought you would ask about my origin first, and I didnt expect that you would ask who you are... Well, the answer is very simple. You are who you are.

If he were to give such an answer like a game of words on any other occasion, he would probably be beaten to death.

However, Li Mus eyes lit up when he heard that answer.

He understood the meaning of the answer.

For him, this answer was undoubtedly what he was eagerly waiting for.

You are who you are.

What the old faker was trying to tell Li Mu was that Li Mu was just an ordinary young man on Earth instead of a reincarnation of an immortal or demon, or a descendant of some Immortal Clan that wandered on Earth, or a person with a rare bloodline, or a special figure who was destined to turn the gears of fate and history.

Im just the person who I used to know.

Im just an ordinary person.

Li Mu asked again, Alright. Heres my second question. Who on earth are you?

The old faker chuckled and said, Havent I told you that Im the Inspiration King?

Do you mean the fish spirit killed by Sun Wukong in the Journey to the West? Are the stories in the Journey to the West even real? Li Mu asked.

How is that possible? The old faker said, Wu Chengen only had some superficial knowledge of martial arts practice. He heard some rumors and wrote the Journey to the West later. Many records in the book are actually contrary to facts. The inspiration king depicted in it is as weak as a kitten, but I am invincible in martial arts. Even if all the figures depicted in the book joined forces, they would still be no match for me.

After hearing that, Li Mu filtered the information and came to the conclusion that Wu Chengen was once a pract.i.tioner and some stories recorded in the Journey to the West were not completely fabricated.

Now, he roughly understood why he encountered some things related to the Journey to the West at ancient sites like the Everlasting Heaven and the Tomb of the G.o.d of Sin.

You have said so much. Can you stop bragging and answer my questions properly? Li Mu looked at the old faker with disdain.

The old faker said angrily, You changed the subject first... There are some things that you wouldnt understand even if I told you. Im from the world outside the Ziwei Star Zone. Do you remember the tough guy I told you about? I mean the ruthless man who uses stars as chess pieces and the universe as the chessboard.

Do you mean Ye Qingyuthe Divine Emperor? A name popped up in Li Mus mind.

That person was the one most often mentioned by the old faker. Li Mu used to think that the old faker made it up, but now, it seemed to be true.

The old faker said, Yes, its him.

He said those words in a respectful tone.

This kind of look was rarely seen on this old Taoist priests face.

Li Mu tried to imagine what that ruthless man looked like. If what the old faker said were true, it would mean that the road of martial arts practice in the universe was still wide and the so-called Deity Realm mentioned by the ancestors of the six major clans might just be the beginning.

The reason was very simple. Li Mu was sure that even the ancestors of the six major clans, who had successfully integrated the divine blood with their bodies, could never be like Ye Qingyu, the Divine Emperor, who used stars as chess pieces and the universe as the chessboard.

I am referring to the Star Region of Ye Qingyu, the Divine Emperor, as the Heaven-controlling Cosmos. Back then, I came from the Heaven-controlling Cosmos to this desolate land to find my own way. At that time, I stayed by the side of Divine Emperor as the ruler of a region and I was practically invincible in this place.

The old faker explained.

Li Mu thought for a moment and believed what the old faker said.

Of course, he only believed the story about the old fakers origin. He was suspicious about whether the old faker was really invincible.

Anyway, it was fair to say that the old faker had a strong background.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that a powerful master from the Heaven-controlling Cosmos could sweep across the entire Ziwei Star Zone.

Oh, you once talked about the Great Way Realm. Is that the realm above the King Realm? Li Mu remembered that while he was in the Sakura Moon Killing Path, he was a little curious when he heard the old faker talk about the Great Way Realm.

He believed that the old faker was definitely an expert in understanding and cla.s.sifying the realms of martial arts.

Upon hearing his words, the old faker chuckled and said, What are you thinking about? Its not that easy to reach the Great Way Realm. The realms above the King Realm are called the Upper King Realm, the Deity Realm, and the Great Way Realm in ascending order... Do you understand the difference between the King Realm and the Great Way Realm now? Thats the difference between you and me.

Li Mu was greatly surprised when he heard that.

How can that be possible?

It turns out that there are so many realms above the King Domain... He had always thought that there was only one realm above the King Domain and that realm was called the Deity Realm, which was a realm of infinity and eternity. Now, it seemed that there was still a long way to go before he could reach the final destination of martial arts. The King Realm was just a part of the way and somewhat like a starting point.

The Upper King Realm was above the King Realm. The Deity Realm was above the Upper King Realm, which was also a part of the way. The realm which was even higher was the Great Way Realm mentioned by the old faker. These three realms were the real great realms.

What about the Great Way Realm? That should be the peak of martial arts, right? Li Mu asked.

The old faker guffawed, glanced at Li Mu as if he were looking at a frog at the bottom of a well, and said straightforwardly, How is that possible? I came all the way from the Heaven-controlling Cosmos. Along the way, I pa.s.sed through countless regions and star rivers and spent a lot of cultivation energy. As a result, my power declined sharply. However, I still remained in the Great Way Realm. Do you know what realm I was in while I was in the Heaven-controlling Cosmos? During my heydays in the Heaven-controlling Cosmos, it was very difficult for me to rank among the top ten. What realm do you think those masters at the peak, such as Ye Qingyuthe Divine Emperor, are in?

Li Mu was at a loss for words.

Although the old fakers tone didnt sound very pleasant, he had to admit that there was nothing wrong with the old fakers logic.

There were more than one realm above the Great Way Realm.

When Li Mu came to this conclusion, he felt like a climber who thought he was about to reach the top, but it turned out that there were more high mountains in front of him.

Should he stop moving forward just because he felt frustrated?

Of course he shouldnt.

Only those who kept moving forward could accomplish great things.

Li Mu asked another question. What realm will I reach when I practice to the full extent of my Xiantian Skill and Zhenwu Boxing?

This question had been bothering him for a long time.

So far, he had reached the halfway stage of the Zhenwu Boxing and Xiantian Skill and became invincible in the King Realm. It would be fair to say that he rose and dominated in the Ziwei Star Zone by relying on these two Cultivation Methods. However, he had not seen the upper limits of these Cultivation Methods.

The old faker grinned. Well... Im not sure about that because these two simple, basic skills were not created by me and I have never practiced them before. How could I know what realm you can reach after you practice to the full extent of these skills?

Li Mu was a little speechless.

The old faker said, Ha-ha, dont look at me like that. You should be happy. The Xiantian Skill and Zhenwu Boxing were created by Ye Qingyu, the Divine Emperor. He authorized me to pick a successor randomly and pa.s.s on the skills. You were lucky enough to have been taught by me. Well, in this sense, you are a successor of the Divine Emperor.

It turns out that I am related to the Divine Emperor...

Li Mu really felt touched this time.

He had never thought that he would be related to the Divine Emperor.

What realm has Ye Qingyu, the Divine Emperor, reached? He asked curiously.

The old faker stayed silent for a moment after he heard this question. Then, he said, Its hard to say. I cant see it through or understand it. Hes omnipotent. I guess he hasnt reached the real ultimate peak yet, but he should be very, very close to it... This is just my feeling.

Hasnt he reached the real ultimate peak?

What will he be like when he reaches the real ultimate peak?

Li Mu couldnt imagine it.

However, that was not very important to him.

He told the older faker everything that he had experienced in the Star River, especially what he discovered on the White Earth, the history of the Dark Yellow Army, Bai Jun the G.o.d of War and the others that he met in the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm, the existence and plot of the ancestors of the six major clans, and so on.

He had absolute trust in the old faker, so he had nothing to hide.

The ancestors? Ha-ha, theyre just some mobs. In the battle many years ago, they were peripheral members. How dare they call themselves ancestors now? The old faker said disdainfully, In that battle, the real effective forces and big shots who fought face to face were all in the center of the battlefield. When the battlefield was sealed, all the mainstays on both sides were sealed in the battlefield. Only those n.o.bodies on the periphery of the battlefield were not sealed.

Ah?

Li Mus jaw dropped.

I regarded the ancestors of the six major clans as formidable enemies. It turned out that they are n.o.bodies...

Thats really ridiculous.

However, I can look at it from a different point of view. According to the old fakers cla.s.sification of realms, if the cultivation level of the ancestors of the six major clans is above the King Realm, they should be in the Upper King Realm or the Deity Realm at most. In this case, theyre naturally less powerful than the old faker, who claims that he is in the Great Way Realm.

Li Mu suddenly felt a little relaxed.

In this case, Earth will not face any danger at all.

The old faker has reached the Great Way Realm. Who could pose a threat to the Earth under his protection? The ancestors of the six major clans are not worth any mention in front of him.

According to what you said, the truly powerful people were all sealed in the battlefield and the ancestors of the six major clans were just mobs. What about the Dark Yellow Army, Bai Jun the G.o.d of War, and the others in the Star River? Are they... Li Mu thought that hed better sort out his thoughts.

Well, the Dark Yellow Army is really worthy of respect. Back then, they resisted the extraterritorial enemies for a long time and almost turned the tables. Even after some major clans betrayed them, they used every possible means and managed to seal the battlefield. Bai Jun the G.o.d of War was considered a promising junior in the Dark Yellow Army, so he was qualified to enter the battlefield that year... the old faker said with a respectful tone of voice.

What a pity! Had it not been for the betrayal of the six major clans, the Dark Yellow Army would probably have won the battle and ushered in a real prosperous dynasty, Li Mu said.

The old faker chuckled. The betrayal of the six major clans? You think too highly of them. Their betrayal was nothing for the Dark Yellow Army at that time. The real detrimental betrayal was an internal one. Thats the most terrible thing. The internal betrayers dealt a fatal blow to the Dark Yellow Army.

Huh?

Li Mu was dumbfounded.

There seems to be something wrong.
