High Martial Arts: I Awaken a Low-Tier Martial System

Chapter 1060 - 490: The Hundred-Star Divine War Approaches, Secrets of the Starry Sky Civilization!

This kind of event isn’t happening for the first time.

The last time Jiang Ye was assassinated by a powerhouse at the peak of the demigod realm, Venerable Bai swiftly dispatched several Gods to invade the Cangxu Civilization, seizing several resource planets.

Similar occurrences, Jiang Ye had heard of many times.

"Why does it feel."

"Like the Huanglong high officials are fishing?" Jiang Ye’s expression was peculiar.

Such incidents, once or twice could be overlooked, but not every time Huanglong was caught unprepared.

Thinking about this, Jiang Ye grew more suspicious.

"If it truly is a fishing strategy."

"Then it’s far too cruel." Jiang Ye couldn’t help but glance at the young lady beside him, using the core direct descendant of the Nine Great Divine Races as bait.

This level of determination cannot be underestimated.

Of course, all this was merely Jiang Ye’s speculation.

The truth remains unknown.

"The thoughts of those top powerhouses are beyond my comprehension." Jiang Ye understood this point.

Suddenly.

"Buzz~" A divine thought voice transmission pierced into Jiang Ye’s mind.

"Hmm?"

"Is it the teacher?" Jiang Ye’s expression slightly changed, immediately looking toward Wang Zilu: "Venerable sent a message, I must leave."

"Alright, you should hurry." Wang Zilu nodded repeatedly.

Jiang Ye said no more, turned, and left the residence.

Wang Zilu quietly watched his departing figure, waiting until Jiang Ye’s silhouette completely disappeared before she slowly sat down.

"Ah..... so embarrassed."

"I actually in front of him?" The young girl held her cheeks, clearly recalling the scene of crying in Jiang Ye’s arms.

For a moment, her cheeks flushed from ruby red to her ears, like a crabapple in the glow, stunningly beautiful.

...

After bidding farewell to Wang Zilu, Jiang Ye activated the divine power surrounding him, transforming into a stream of flowing light headed straight to the Saint Hall of the Venerable Bai Race.

In the blink of an eye, the Holy Hall was already in sight.

"Divine Son!"

"Greetings to the Divine Son." The white-armored guards at the entrance knelt down to show respect.

Jiang Ye stepped in, within the hall the Star River flowed, Venerable Bai remained seated on the cloud bed, surrounded by ethereal mist, with a profound and immeasurable aura.

"Teacher." Jiang Ye cupped his hands in salute.

"You’re here?" Venerable Bai raised his eyes, his gaze fell on Jiang Ye.

"The Hundred-Star Divine War commences in three days." Venerable Bai stated: "The starry battlefield has been constructed in the core star domain of the White Dragon Star System Group, are you ready?"

"Disciple understands, and is completely prepared." Jiang Ye affirmed solemnly.

"Good."

"This is the intelligence regarding the Hundred-Star Divine War I have compiled." Venerable Bai flicked his fingers gently, and an illustrious jade slip floated before Jiang Ye: "The information of top-tier talents from hundreds of secondary civilizations is contained within."

Jiang Ye hurriedly reached out to receive it, his mind stirred.

"Wow~" A torrent of information instantly flowed into the sea of consciousness.

Names emerged one after another.

[Heaven-Burning Civilization: Yan Lie]

[Profound Ice Civilization: Bingli]

[Thunder Marsh Civilization: Lei Hao]

[Devil Control Civilization: Liu Tianmo]

[...]

Soon, Jiang Ye’s eyes flickered, spotting a familiar name.

[Cangxu Civilization: Mo Tianlun]

[Cangxu Civilization’s top demigod talent, Peak of Demigod, innate magic: Shadow of the Divine and Demonic (Great Success)...]

"Mo Tianlun." Jiang Ye’s eyes flashed with a cold gleam, etching the name firmly in his mind.

"In this Hundred-Star Divine War, aside from the Cangxu Civilization, you need to pay special attention to the Heaven-Burning Civilization, Profound Ice Civilization, Thunder Marsh Civilization." Venerable Bai said in a deep voice: "These three civilizations are 2.5-level civilizations, the highest level secondary civilizations within the White Dragon Star System Group, their foundation far exceeds ordinary races."

Jiang Ye’s heart moved upon hearing this.

"Teacher."

"There’s been a question lingering in my heart." Jiang Ye couldn’t help but ask: "Why is it that within the White Dragon Star System Group, the highest level of secondary civilizations is only 2.5, and there’s never been a division above 2.6?"

Now Jiang Ye was somewhat familiar with many civilizations within the White Dragon Star System Group.

This point had always perplexed him.

Clearly there are two major tertiary civilizations, so why do civilizations above 2.5-level seem to be nonexistent?

"2.6-level?"

"By the existing rules, civilizations above 2.5-level are categorized as tertiary civilizations." Venerable Bai shook his head: "In other words, today’s tertiary civilizations actually represent the standard of past 2.6-level civilizations, the criteria for level classification have been adjusted over the course of time."

"Changed?"

"Doesn’t that mean," Jiang Ye said in surprise, "that the Caikun Civilization and Celestial Battle Civilization are not truly level 3 civilizations?"

"That’s not it."

Venerable Bai slowly shook his head, "The two great civilizations, Caikun and Celestial Battle, were genuine level 3 civilizations even in the long past."

"However, their current level of 3.9 is merely at the threshold of entering level 3 civilization."

"They still have a long way to go before reaching the true peak of a level 3 civilization," Venerable Bai remarked with emotion.

Jiang Ye listened quietly, learning these secrets for the first time.

At this moment.

"I see." A voice suddenly rang in Jiang Ye’s mind.

"Bai Gui?" Jiang Ye exclaimed in surprise.

Since the White Dragon Royal Court’s return, Bai Gui had returned as well.

"The White Dragon Civilization follows the old standard," Bai Gui said, "Otherwise, a mere 3.7-level civilization could not dominate the entire White Dragon Star System Group."

Jiang Ye nodded inwardly.

In the past, he always thought the White Dragon Civilization was much weaker than the Caikun Civilization.

But now, it seems that was far from the truth.

If judged by the old standards, the 3.7-level White Dragon Civilization was far stronger than the current 3.9-level civilizations.

....

Soon.

Jiang Ye suppressed the turmoil in his heart.

He refocused his divine thought to the jade slip, precisely locking onto the civilizations of Heaven-Burning, Profound Ice, and Thunder Marsh.

[Yan Lie, Heaven-Burning Civilization’s top genius, at the pinnacle of demigod, nearly perfection, possesses Heaven-Burning Flame Body, his innate divine ability ’Heaven-Burning Scorch’ is nearly 90% perfected, able to invoke the holy flames of the starry sky to burn everything to ashes.]

[Bingli, Profound Ice Civilization’s divine maiden, holds the Innate Ice Spirit Divine Body, reaches the demigod pinnacle, nearly perfection, with her innate divine ability ’Millennial Profound Ice,’ can freeze all below a God.]

[Lei Hao, Thunder Marsh Civilization’s Young Master, has achieved Great Success of Thunder God Body, at the pinnacle of demigod, his innate divine ability ’Nine Heavenly Divine Thunder’ is nearing perfection, his thunderous power unparalleled and claimed to be invincible at the same level.]

Each introduction exuded an awe-inspiring power.

Pinnacle of demigod! Nearly perfection!

And they all possessed innate divine abilities close to perfection!

This means they are just a step away from touching the threshold of a God, the elite force among demigods.

"Among these three great civilizations,"

"Heaven-Burning and Thunder Marsh both fall under the Celestial Battle Civilization’s command, antagonistic to our Huanglong under the Caikun Civilization," Venerable Bai’s voice boomed, "In this divine war, you must be cautious."

Jiang Ye’s expression was solemn, nodding slowly.

"As for the Profound Ice Civilization where Bingli belongs?"

"Though they are under the Caikun Civilization like us and appear as allies," Venerable Bai stated solemnly, "they are also competitors in resource allocation and status rivalry under the Caikun Civilization."

"Therefore, you must also be vigilant against the Profound Ice Civilization, never trust them wholeheartedly."

"Lest they betray you from behind," Venerable Bai warned.

Holding a high position, he saw things clearly; in the starry sky, only interests are eternal.

So-called allies are merely temporary blends of interest.

Jiang Ye was alert, remembering every word of Venerable Bai deep in his heart.

"I will remember my mentor’s teachings, and approach cautiously without being careless."

Whether it’s Yan Lie, Lei Hao, or Mo Tianlun from opposing camps.

Or Bingli from allied forces, as well as Bai Cantian and Wang Zilu within Huanglong, they’re all opponents to him.

Jiang Ye understood clearly in his heart.

Only by forging ahead can he secure a top three spot, gain qualification to enter the Caikun Civilization, and find Chen Zilu’s whereabouts.

"As long as you understand," Venerable Bai noted Jiang Ye’s fighting spirit with a hint of approval in his eyes.

"Ye Jiang,"

"The Hundred-Star Divine War is not only a contest of talents but a chess game of various civilizations," Venerable Bai bent down and said, "As the Divine Son of Huanglong, you represent not only yourself but also the Huanglong Civilization, do not disappoint your master’s expectations."

"I will give my all, not betraying my mentor and Huanglong’s trust," Jiang Ye bowed, his voice strong and forceful, his aura becoming more refined.

Venerable Bai nodded slightly, without further words, just waved his hand to infuse a pure heaven and earth power into Jiang Ye to stabilize his realm: "Go, make your final preparations, three days later, go with the Huanglong battle team to the starry battleground."

"Yes, mentor."

Jiang Ye bowed again, turned around, and exited the Holy Hall.

...

Leaving the Bai Race Holy Hall, Jiang Ye didn’t return to the Bright Heart Hall but headed straight for the White Dragon Royal Court.

He wanted to use the last three days to perfect his condition in the Profound Light Hall, adjusting himself to the peak state, while letting his Dao Body continue clashing with the genius shadows of various civilizations in the Pantheon, familiarizing himself with their combat strategies.

Three days in the outside world pass in the blink of an eye.

But in the Profound Light Hall, they are several tens of days of hard cultivation.

In a flash, the Hundred-Star Divine War had arrived as scheduled.
