Chapter 565: Chapter 322: Death News! Awakening (Seeking Monthly Tickets at Month’s End)_4
That is to say, he had been lying down all this time.

“What happened to me?” Li Yuan was initially somewhat perplexed.

With his powerful spiritual consciousness, he was very sensitive to the passage of time; he hadn’t noticed it while he was asleep, but now he quickly distinguished it.

This made Li Yuan realize, “I’ve been asleep for forty-six days?”

He had never slept that long in one go before.

“Is this the Inner Core Realm?” Li Yuan’s heart was wary, “Why did I sleep for so long? What’s the situation outside?”

Suddenly, a look of shock crossed Li Yuan’s eyes.

“The Wind Fluctuations in the world around me…” Li Yuan noticed changes in himself, with the clarity of his sensitivity to the Mystery of the Wind likely being several times stronger than before.

Even the mysterious fluctuations of other Laws of the Great Dao now seemed much clearer to him.

It was as if, during the time he had been asleep, Li Yuan’s talents had undergone another Transformation.

“You finally woke up.” A familiar voice suddenly echoed in the hall.

Whoosh~Whoosh!

Streams of light converged to form two Phantoms, both of which were figures Li Yuan had seen before.

One Phantom was the Black Snake Phantom, the training officer, who now seemed to be just like a follower.

The other was a burly humanoid figure, with a single horn and clad in thick Combat Armor–it was the ‘Alien God Envoy’ Qiu Bingzun. Only now, the aura he emitted was vigorous and fierce, and he seemed almost real, much stronger than before.

Just standing there, Qiu Bingzun made Li Yuan’s heart tremble.

“Elder Qiu?” Li Yuan got up from the Jade Platform, unable to help asking, “What’s going on?”

“Little fellow.” The Black Snake Phantom laughed, “Why call him Elder anymore? You should address him as the respected, the great ‘Respected One’.”

“Respected One?” A shock went through Li Yuan’s heart.

“In my Heavenly Serpent race, only the most exalted beings are worthy of being called Respected Ones.” The Black Snake Phantom solemnly said, “Even in the Divine Realm’s Heavenly Serpent Temple, the Respected Ones have the privilege of leaving their names behind.”

Listening, Li Yuan was bewildered and couldn’t help but look toward the burly figure with the horn.

Suddenly, Li Yuan realized.

No wonder some things had felt odd before. As an Alien God Envoy, why did he repeatedly remind me to be wary of the Heritage? Shouldn’t he logically be tempting me into accepting the Alien God’s Heritage, the treasure of the Heavenly Serpent Divine?

Qiu Bingzun, the Respected One.

So that was how it was.

“Spirit Gun, you are not mistaken.” Qiu Bingzun stepped forward, smiled, and came in front of Li Yuan, “I am indeed the master of this Mothership, and also the Heavenly Serpent Divine ‘Qiu Bingzun’ you speak of.”

“You don’t need to call me Respected One, just continue to refer to me as Elder Qiu.” Qiu Bingzun looked at Li Yuan.

“Elder Qiu.” Li Yuan gave a wry smile.

“You must have many questions in your heart, don’t be anxious, I will explain them to you gradually.” Qiu Bingzun smiled, “Since I chose you, naturally I will not hide anything from you.”

“How do you feel now that you’ve integrated the Sacred Artifact ‘Spirit of the Heavenly Wind’?” Qiu Bingzun smiled.

Startled by these words, Li Yuan couldn’t help but say, “The changes in my body, are they because I’ve integrated this artifact?”

“Sacred Artifacts, even to Respected Ones, are precious treasures.” The Black Snake Phantom said, “You’ve been asleep for so many days because you were Refining and integrating the artifact.”

“Indeed, your body is formidable; you succeeded in Refinement in just over forty days. The Respected One and I thought it would take at least half a year.” The Black Snake Phantom said.

Li Yuan suddenly understood.

“The Spirit of the Heavenly Wind is of great use even to Divine beings,” Qiu Bingzun laughed, “And for those below the level of Divine beings, its greatest effect is akin to modifying your body and bloodline, greatly increasing your affinity with the Wind Law… it works best with Second Rank and Third Rank life forms.”

“For Demigods, their bodies are too strong, so the effect would be much less.” Qiu Bingzun smiled, “This is also why I only select Second Rank and Third Order Life.”
