Book 5: Chapter 191: Plundering Divine Nature
In Long Shenyings military camp:
The three crown princes, Long Shenying, Long Shenwen, and Long Shenwu, looked at a letter.
The Qian Heavenly Dynasty was currently united in facing an enemy, so the crown princes shared all their information.
Gu Hai broke into the Lower Heavenly Palace Realm? Thats really fast! Long Shenwu said with narrowed eyes.
One hundred sixty-three meters tall? Eminent Fathers mortal soul is also one hundred sixty-three meters tall! Long Shenwen said in shock.
One hundred sixty-three meters tall. That is perfection for the Lower Heavenly Palace Realm. I thought only Eminent Father could reach that. Unexpectedly, Gu Hai is so lucky. If I guess right, it should be thanks to the Asura Path Secret Realm, Long Shenwu said with narrowed eyes.
The Asura Path Secret Realm? Gu Hai is very lucky. Haha! His starting point is very high! Envy flashed in Long Shenwens eyes.
However, Long Shenying shook his head and said, No. Gu Hai is as good as crippled now.
Oh? Eldest Brother, are you talking about Gu Hais imprisonment? The Supreme Genesis will kill him? Long Shenwu said.
Long Shenying shook his head. Im referring to the fact that his mortal soul has already reached one hundred sixty-three meters in height while he is still in the Lower Heavenly Palace Realm. Doesnt that cripple him?
Why? Long Shenwu asked in confusion.
At the side, Long Shenwen narrowed his eyes slightly. Thats right. Eldest Brother is right. It is over for Gu Hai. Eminent Fathers mortal soul did not reach one hundred sixty-three meters tall in one go. Instead, it grew slowly through cultivation.
Is there a difference? Long Shenwu asked with a frown.
Third Younger Brother, this is not your true body. Your clone is much stupider. When is your true body returning? Long Shenying asked.
Long Shenwus expression turned stiff.
The three spiritual souls are known as spiritual. Why? How does one cultivate as a Lower Heavenly Palace Realm cultivator? Long Shenwen asked.
The spiritual souls are containers. Divine Energy is the foundation of cultivation. The larger ones spiritual soul, the more the Divine Energy it can contain, and the stronger it will be. This should be a good thing. However, it is a bad thing for Gu Hai, Long Shenying said.
Using an a.n.a.logy, an ordinary Lower Heavenly Palace Realm cultivators mortal soul is like a dry pond. One only needs to fill it with a ponds worth of divine nature to fill it and reach the Middle Heavenly Palace Realm. However, Gu Hai is different. His mortal soul is like a dried-up sea. He will need to fill it with a seas worth of divine nature. Tell me, given Gu Hais current cultivation speed, how long will he take to fill this sea? Long Shenwen asked with a cold smile.
Oh? Long Shenwus pupils constricted.
Eminent Fathers mortal soul is also like a sea. However, he did not expand it to that size in the Lower Heavenly Palace Realm; he did it during the Middle Heavenly Palace Realm, even during the Upper Heavenly Palace Realm. He used his earthly and heavenly souls to enlarge it and pour in divine nature. He also has an immortal firmament to help him fill this vast sea. Gu Hai will never be able to fill it, Long Shenying said with a grim smile.
How unfortunate! Long Shenwu sighed.
You can stop feeling pity. We will be arriving at the fusang tree in another two days. Our men have already sent the declaration of war to the golden crow crown princes. They must be already waiting for us with their soldiers, Long Shenying said.
The ten golden crow crown princes? Hah! Perhaps only Lu Ya is worth watching. The others are nothing! Long Shenwen sneered.
Dont underestimate them! We must win. Defeat is not permitted! Long Shenying said coldly.
Yes! the other two answered.
Animal Path Secret Realm:
With Old Wu handling the coordination, the humans were very cooperative. At the very least, Gu Hai gave them great hope. Gu Hai even promised to bring all the humans back to the Divine Continent if he succeeded. Hence, the humans went about to lure the animal spirit deities over.
Gu Hai chose an extremely dark mountain with heavy clouds and boundless fog covering it. He then laid many sound isolation barriers to prevent any sound from leaking.
Senior Gu, can you manage? Old Wu asked worriedly on a mountain peak.
Dont worry. I just need quant.i.ty, as many as possible, Gu Hai replied seriously.
Senior, dont worry about this. I have already informed all the tribes. All the war deities will do their best to lure animal spirit deities over, Old Wu said.
Roar! Right after Old Wu spoke, a roar came from the distance.
A group of humans fled before a large wolf spirit deity.
Its coming! Old Wus eyes lit up.
Search Hosted Novel for the original.
Roar!
Another roar came from the other side.
Another group of humans lured over a leopard spirit deity.
Oh no! There are two coming at the same time. What should we do? Old Wus expression changed.
Gu Hai stepped forward and immediately flew over.
As Gu Hai flew, his mortal soul came out. Then, boundless crimson energy rushed over from the world, constructing a gigantic crimson body for his mortal soul.
Hahahaha! You human war deities dare to challenge me now? You are seeking death! a seventeen-meter-tall wolf spirit deity sneered.
Oh? You even provoked the wolf spirit deity? You are truly seeking death! a twenty-meter-tall leopard spirit deity guffawed.
Boom!
The animal spirit deities auras sent the two groups of humans cras.h.i.+ng to the ground.
Argh! When the humans fell, it looked like the animal spirit deities would consume them.
Senior! the war deities cried out.
Senior? There is no one to save you. Where would a senior come from? Hahahaha! the wolf spirit deity sneered.
The wolf spirit deity opened its jaws, poised to consume the humans in the next moment.
Suddenly, a large shadow covered the place.
The seventeen-meter-tall wolf spirit deity felt slightly startled. When it turned its head to look, it saw a one-hundred-sixty-three-meter-tall giant.
I am their senior! Gu Hai said indifferently.free?e?n?v?l.??m
s.h.i.+ng!
Gu Hai swung down the Life Ender Saber.
Argh!
The wolf spirit deity yelped in fear as it sustained a large wound.
Rumble!
Surging black energy flew out from the Life Ender Saber, and many skulls started gnawing on the wolf spirit deity.
Dont! Dont! Argh!
The wolf spirit deity got consumed in the blink of an eye. Perhaps it was too weak, but it did not leave any bones behind.
Since whensince when did humans have such a large mortal soul? You You Ah! Great Loach Deity, theres a problem! the leopard spirit deity cried out in shock.
s.h.i.+ng!
Gu Hai swung his saber, chopping off the leopard spirit deitys head. Surging black energy and the skulls consumed it in the blink of an eye.
There is no point shouting. There is a sound isolation ritual array here. No sound will leak out, Gu Hai said coldly.
The humans who nearly got eaten showed great joy on their faces. Long live Senior! Long live!
Ill go lure more animal spirit deities! Ill go again!
Ill go as well! Hahahaha! If this can save the humans, even my death would be worth it!
Ill go lure more animal spirit deities!
The various human war deities excitedly rushed about.
Old Wu also showed a jubilant expression. There was finally hope for the humans.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
Roars continuously rang out in the surroundings as the various animal spirit deities were lured over.
Gu Hai discovered that this body, formed by his mortal soul gathering the crimson energy of the world, was not very strong. However, as the Life Ender Saber continuously refined divine nature and fed some back to him, filling the halo behind his head with divine nature, he seemed to get stronger.
As more animal spirit deities came over, Gu Hais saber moved increasingly faster.
Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!
These were the weakest of the animal spirit deities. When the Life Ender Saber slaughtered them, it left nothing of them behind. This continued until a sixty-seven-meter-tall bull spirit deity arrived.
Gu Hai fought with it for quite a while before managing to stab its eyes. Surging black energy immediately drilled into its eyes and consumed the bull spirit deity, finally leaving behind bones.
Old Wu and the other human war deities were on tenterhooks earlier. The sixty-seven-meter-tall bull spirit deity had chanced upon them.
That is already the sixtieth animal spirit deity. Although most were weak animal spirit deities, there were still sixty of them. Senior, do you feel any discomfort? Old Wu asked worriedly.
Dont worry. The will of these deities cannot harm me. Lure more over. Also, if you know where the strong animal spirit deities are, you can bring me there, Gu Hai replied seriously.
Hahaha! Senior, just wait. Just wait. Our war deities will lure more animal spirit deities over soon. Just wait. Just wait! the human war deities called out excitedly.
Now, a faint red halo appeared behind the azure halo behind Gu Hais head. That new halo was not complete yet. Even so, it had already appeared.
Cultivating as a Lower Heavenly Palace Realm cultivator is really difficult. Previously, I thought there would be no way to break through. However, there is an excellent opportunity now! Gu Hai took a deep breath as he held the Life Ender Saber.
As the red halo slowly took form, Gu Hai grew stronger. The strength of the mortal souls body was decided by divine nature. The more divine nature there was, the stronger it would be.
This was the same for the animal spirit deities. They killed each other to consume more divine nature and grow stronger.
Fortunately, I have already reached the Lower Heavenly Palace Realm. Otherwise, there would be nowhere to store the divine energy even if I could consume it, Gu Hai said.
With a one-hundred-sixty-three-meter-tall mortal soul allowing him to store more divine nature, Gu Hai could move as freely as a fish in water.
Humans could not cultivate deities. However, humans themselves were deities.
Gu Hais one-hundred-sixty-three-meter-tall mortal soul did not change in size. As he killed relentlessly, he continuously grew stronger. At some point, he raised his head to look ferociously at the large sun. Bing Ji, I have received your love. You even pleaded for me at the point of your death. I will take Lu Yas head as an offering to you!
The scene of Lu Ya consuming Bing Ji remained fresh in Gu Hais mind, filling him with overwhelming rage.
Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!
Gu Hai kept killing. The red halo already fully formed. Now, a third halo slowly formed, a purple one.
The Lower Heavenly Palace Realms third layer? Its still not enough, Gu Hai said with bloodshot eyes.
Gu Hai killed like that for ten days and ten nights.
Senior, youyou have already killed three thousand two hundred animal spirit deities! Old Wu said excitedly.
Now, white bones littered the valley where Gu Hai was. These were the remains of the large animal spirits after they died. After ten days, the purple halo behind his head had fully formed.
Lower Heavenly Palace Realms fourth layer!
Gu Hais mortal soul body had grown denser. Surging crimson negative Karmic Energy surrounded him. However, this negative Karmic Energy did not bother him. He absorbed it all into the Karmic Energy pool.
Caw!
Suddenly, Lu Ya let out a crows cry from the sun.
Old loach, this crown prince has the Great Yinyang Mutually Complementing Technique and has already refined the deities from three hundred eight animal spirit deities. What about you? Its still too early for you, right? Hahahahaha! Today is the day you die! Lu Yas shout rang out in the sky.
Roar!
The Great Loach Deitys furious roar suddenly came from a distant forest.
All animal spirit deities, come out and tear Lu Ya apart with this great deity! the Great Loach Deity bellowed.
Roar!
Roar!
Roar!
Countless animal spirit deities roared throughout the independent world, revealing themselves while howling.
Gu Hai looked up at the sky. He narrowed his eyes and said, Lu Ya is here. Its about time. Next up is your death!
