"It can actually increase the strength of his two bodies by 30% to 50%?"
"Rat, are you kidding me?"
“Back then, we witnessed the strength of that prince of the Primordial God Clan. Every body he possessed was at the upper-level God Realm, yet he had the strength of the peak God Realm. If he could increase that by another 30% to 50%, wouldn't he reach a level close to the peak of the high-level God Realm? To possess such power at the upper-level God Realm is simply too exaggerated!”
Seeing the images of the two magical treasures released by the Rat, some powerful figures from the imperial dynasty exclaimed in surprise.
Because the Peak God Realm is the final realm of the God Realm, the difference in strength between experts at this level is slightly greater than at other levels. In particular, the Post-Heaven God Dynasty currently has more than one hundred Peak God Realm experts.
The strength of these peak divine realm beings naturally varies, and therefore, they are further divided into a more detailed distinction, using the categories of low-level peak divine realm, medium-level peak divine realm, high-level peak divine realm, and top-level peak divine realm.
The strength of a mid-level peak god realm expert is about 30% higher than that of an ordinary peak god realm expert. If these two peak god realm experts were to engage in a prolonged battle, an ordinary peak god realm expert would not be a match for a mid-level peak god realm expert. However, it would not be easy for a mid-level peak god realm expert to defeat an ordinary peak god realm expert.
The strength of a high-level peak god realm expert is about 60% higher than that of an ordinary peak god realm expert. Quantitative change leads to qualitative change, so the gap is huge. They are almost two different levels of powerhouses. A high-level peak god realm expert can easily defeat an ordinary peak god realm expert. However, peak god realm experts have strong vitality. If they are determined to escape, it is not easy for a high-level peak god realm expert to completely kill them.
Then there are the top-tier peak divine realm beings. The strength of these peak divine realm beings is at least twice that of ordinary peak divine realm beings. If they were to fight an ordinary peak divine realm being, it wouldn't take long before they could completely annihilate that being. In fact, ordinary peak divine realm beings are not particularly skilled in speed, and without special methods, they wouldn't even be able to escape. They could only wait for a comparable expert to come to their aid. If no comparable expert came to their aid, or if only ordinary peak divine realm beings came to their aid, it wouldn't change the outcome; they would all be sent to their deaths.
With strength approaching the peak of the advanced divine realm, even a top-tier peak divine realm would find it difficult to survive a one-on-one fight. In particular, Lin Yun has two bodies, each of which is so powerful that the combined strength of the two bodies probably exceeds that of an ordinary peak of the advanced divine realm and is very close to that of a top-tier peak divine realm.
Therefore, in a one-on-one fight, no strong person could defeat the opponent.
But the opponent... is only at the Upper God Realm!
Although a high-quality divine essence has a far greater strength than a low-quality divine essence at the same level, that is only true for low-level divine essences. Which of the high-level divine essences doesn't have a high-quality divine essence?
If their divine qualities weren't high enough, they wouldn't have been able to reach their current level. Therefore, the further they progress, the more difficult it becomes to fight against opponents of higher levels.
That prince of the innate divine race possessed the strength of a peak divine realm while only being in the upper-level divine realm, which was already quite astonishing.
Now, Zishu tells them that the strength of that innate god prince is not just that of a peak god, but that of someone very close to the top peak god. How can they believe that?
At their level of strength, it's not easy to increase even a little bit. Magical treasures of their caliber are extremely rare, and even if they existed, it would be difficult to increase their strength by much. To increase it by 30% to 50% at once, especially for both of their bodies, is truly astonishing.
Furthermore, they speculated that the fact that both bodies of that innate divine prince showed only the upper-level divine realm made it even more significant. In essence, this might not have increased by 30% to 50%, but rather by several times!
Because what was added was not the power of a normal upper-level god, but the power of a higher-level peak god!
If a true peak-level god were to use those two magic treasures, the increase in power would likely be even greater!
It's very possible that an ordinary peak-level god could directly possess the power of a top-tier peak-level god!
This situation is not without precedent. Whether it was the peak divine realm of the former innate divine dynasty or the current peak divine realm of the acquired divine dynasty, many of them relied on powerful magic treasures to become powerful. On the contrary, very few people possessed the strength of a peak divine realm through their own power!
Among them, there were indeed two or three who, because of a supreme magic weapon, jumped from ordinary peak god realm strength to top peak god realm strength!
But does that prince of the Primordial God Clan really possess two magical treasures of this caliber?
It's estimated that even that innate god-emperor back then didn't have two magic treasures of this level!
"Approaching the peak of the advanced divine realm? Hmph! Lin Yun's previous strength far surpassed that of the former Chenlong, and was even comparable to the Azure Lotus Divine Lord. I'm talking about the strength of each of his bodies! Otherwise, what level do you think his strength was? Why do you think we twelve zodiac beasts suffered such great damage? What you saw later was his power after losing those two magic treasures and being severely injured!" Hearing the surprised and questioning words of the crowd, Zishu snorted coldly and said.
As he spoke, he felt a sense of relief. Did they really think the twelve zodiac beasts were pushovers? It was just that the enemy was too strong! Stronger than anyone could have imagined!
"Zi Shu, what you're saying is a bit of an exaggeration! The former Chen Long was a top-tier cultivator even in the mid-level peak Divine Realm! And the Azure Lotus Divine Lord's strength is even ranked in the high-level peak Divine Realm! According to you, doesn't that mean that Lin Yun has the strength of a high-level peak Divine Realm in every body? With the two bodies combined, it's not impossible that he's comparable to a top-level peak Divine Realm cultivator?" A powerful peak Divine Realm cultivator frowned and said in a deep voice.
Chenlong had spent many years with them, and even if they didn't interact much anymore, many powerful figures in their Later God Dynasty knew about their strength.
After joining the dynasty, Qinglian Divine Lord has demonstrated his strength in the past year in order to gain a foothold in the dynasty. As it turns out, Qinglian Divine Lord is indeed worthy of being a famous peak god in the former innate god dynasty. His strength ranks among the top in the high-level peak god realm. It is unknown whether he has hidden strength. His battle shocked the entire acquired god dynasty, and no one dared to underestimate him anymore.
Now, Zishu says that Lin Yun's strength is comparable to that of the Azure Lotus Divine Lord in every body. How can they believe it?
If the opponent truly possessed a peak divine realm, that would be fine, but unfortunately, both of their bodies only possessed a superior divine realm!
This leap in level is not just a little bit!
"Whether it's an exaggeration or not, Lord Qinglian was also present. You can ask Lord Qinglian to see if it's true!" Zishu said calmly.
Everyone turned their gaze toward the Azure Lotus God.
Even the God Emperor Huo Yi looked over at that battle. Because of the array covering it, he only saw a part of it and couldn't feel much of the power on the spot, so he wasn't very clear about it. He was quite surprised to hear what Zi Shu said.
If someone at the upper-level divine realm possesses such power, and if they were to break through to the peak divine realm, they might become a major threat to their acquired divine dynasty on their own. Coupled with the terrifying number of divine realm beings in the Netherworld, overthrowing their acquired divine dynasty might be a piece of cake.
“At first, the opponent’s two bodies were indeed no weaker than mine. According to my analysis, it should be because of those two magic treasures.” Qinglian Divine Lord said after a moment of silence.
Upon hearing Qinglian Shenjun's words, the powerful figures were in an uproar.
Perhaps because of the strength of the Azure Lotus Divine Lord, or perhaps because of Zi Shu's words, upon hearing the Azure Lotus Divine Lord's words, they almost believed that this matter was true.
However, this also amplified their reaction.
It should be noted that, judging from the extent to which those two magical artifacts amplified their owners' strength, it is almost certain that those two magical artifacts are top-tier.
If they were to obtain it, it would naturally greatly increase their strength, allowing them to leap to the top-tier peak of the Divine Realm and become the most powerful beings in the entire Great World of Living Beings.
"The two magical treasures that the Jade Emperor took away are so powerful! If we had known, we would have been faster back then..."
"Yes, if we had known, we would have done anything to prevent them from taking those two magical treasures back to the Netherworld!"
"If we obtain..."
Those peak-level divine realm experts who had attacked Haotian God King and his group of ghost cultivators were filled with regret. Only now did they realize what they had missed.
"Hmph!" The Rat sneered, and some of the twelve zodiac animals also snorted coldly.
At that time, these powerful figures mocked them quite a bit.
They had kept this matter a secret for the past year, hoping to find another chance to obtain those two magical treasures from the Heavenly King.
However, in the past year, the Haotian God King has not appeared in the Great World of Living Beings again. They have gradually come to understand that he is not an idiot and probably will not easily enter the Great World of Living Beings again. Even if he does enter, he will not easily put those two magic treasures in danger again.
On the other hand, no secret lasts forever; keeping this matter secret for a year has reached its limit.
Putting aside others, even just considering Qinglian Shenjun who was present at the time, the probability of him guessing that the two magical treasures were extraordinary was not small. So, instead of letting Qinglian Shenjun say it, it's better to let them say it themselves.
Just now, His Majesty the Divine Emperor bestowed upon them three more First-Class Merits. Although the powerful figures present did not say anything in their hearts, they knew that they must have some reservations about this matter.
They brought this up to ease the tension of the generous reward they had just received, and also to let the powerful figures know that the twelve zodiac beasts were indeed qualified to receive three more first-class merits.
Putting aside the fact that the enemy's strength was far greater than theirs at the time, and also setting aside their high status, the fact that they provided information about two powerful magical artifacts is still a significant contribution.
"So, it's really possible that the Heavenly King and the Crown Prince of the Primordial God Clan were able to enter and leave the Netherworld because of those two magical treasures?" Huo Yi pondered for a moment and then said.
Powerful magical artifacts are often the ones with the greatest power. Those two magical artifacts are undoubtedly extremely powerful, so it's not impossible for them to accomplish something like this.
"In that case, as long as we find the Haotian God King and obtain those two magic treasures from him, we can resolve the issue of our dynasty's powerful warriors entering the Netherworld!" a peak-level god-realm expert pondered.
"I just don't know if the two magical treasures belonged to the Heavenly King Haotian after he brought them to the Netherworld. You should know that there are two peak-level god-realm ghost cultivators in the Netherworld. In particular, one of them seems to be a descendant of the ancient god race, the Three-Eyed God Clan, and possesses the divine eye power that can influence time!" Another peak-level god-realm cultivator said.
“This is indeed a problem!” Some of the powerful figures nodded.
"In any case, we now have a target. Send down the order to all Divine Realm cultivators in the Imperial Dynasty and all cultivators in the Great World of Living Beings to pay attention to the information of the Heavenly God King, as well as all peak Divine Realm ghost cultivators and superior Divine Realm ghost cultivators. Once discovered, report back immediately, and you will be rewarded handsomely! If the traces of those two magic treasures are discovered, you will be rewarded with a first-class merit! If someone captures those two magic treasures and presents them to us, we will be rewarded with ten first-class merits!" said Divine Emperor Huo Yi.
Upon hearing that the Divine Emperor Huo Yi had once again issued a large reward mission, the powerful figures were once again in an uproar. However, with the previous large reward missions as a precedent, the reaction this time was not as intense.
Moreover, upon closer examination, if the descriptions of Zi Shu and Qinglian Shenjun are true, then those two magical treasures are extremely valuable. Even if those two magical treasures do not have the ability to allow the gods of the living realm to enter the Netherworld, they are still worth ten first-class merits.
Soon, the powerful figures from the various dynasties dispersed.
Inside the main hall, only Emperor Huo Yi and a few trusted subordinates remained.
“Your Majesty, weren’t the rewards for the tasks you just issued a bit too generous… Actually, a slightly smaller reward would have been acceptable…” a subordinate said hesitantly.
Huo Yi glanced at this subordinate, then at the others, and noticed that most of them wore the same expression. He couldn't help but sigh slightly.
"Things are different now. External things are ultimately just external things. Only true strength is the eternal pursuit... Look at the Primordial God Clan Dynasty. They've accumulated so many resources, but they're reluctant to use them. In the end, it's all benefiting the powerful members of our Acquired God Clan Dynasty!"
"In just a few hundred million years, the Post-Heavenly God Dynasty has produced a hundred peak God Realm experts, which is the result of those resources!"
"If the Primordial God Dynasty had made full use of these resources back then, even if they had been given as rewards to our Acquired God Clan powerhouses, our later uprising would not have been so easy!"
"The Netherworld is not to be underestimated. In just a few decades, the Great World of Living Beings has produced nearly ten million God Realm experts, tens of thousands of mid-level God Realm experts, and dozens of high-level God Realm experts. Even with the influence of that Crown Prince of the Primordial God Clan, how can we really take it lightly? Even if that Crown Prince of the Primordial God Clan were to perish, and the Netherworld continues to develop at that high speed, what if they spend ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times, or even ten thousand times more time?"
"Decades, even a thousand or ten thousand times longer, is still only tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years! What does that amount of time to us?"
"The ghost cultivators of the Netherworld may be suppressed in the Great World of Living Beings, but their sheer numbers are overwhelming. If they were to clash with our Post-Heavenly God Dynasty, it's hard to say whether we could be their match!"
"Why aren't we using those resources now? When are we going to use them?"
"If distributing these resources can truly increase the strength of our dynasty and enhance our own power, then it will be worthwhile!"
Huo Yi shook his head.
Speaking of this, he thought of the two magical treasures that Zishu had mentioned earlier. If the previous missions were for the benefit of the future God Clan, the later mission was for his own benefit.
Over hundreds of millions of years, his strength has increased dramatically, but as time goes by, it becomes increasingly difficult for him to increase his strength. In the last one or two hundred million years, his strength has not increased at all.
This is why he began to pay attention to the balance among the powerful figures of the Divine Clan Dynasty and whether they harbored rebellious intentions.
No matter how strong a person is, their abilities are ultimately limited and have their limits.
If he could obtain those two magical treasures, his strength might increase significantly, which would be of great importance.
Whether it's his own pursuit of strength, the stability of the dynasty, or the crisis in the Netherworld, it's all of great benefit.
In that case, what does it matter if he performs ten first-class merits?
I fear that even if a powerful figure from the dynasty were to obtain those two magical treasures, he would still find it difficult to persuade them to hand them over, even if he were to perform ten first-class merits.
First-class merit is hard to obtain, but time is long and it can be accumulated slowly. However, the strength of experts at their level is truly difficult to increase even a little bit.
Look at that innate god dynasty emperor, who has existed since the chaotic era, and has only been surpassed little by little by the acquired god powerhouses, and was eventually overthrown by them. He doesn't want to end up like that in the future.
"I see……"
"Your Majesty is wise..."
All the subordinates bowed in respect.
"This is the last task. You all need to pay close attention to it. If you get any information, no matter what I'm doing, send it to me immediately!" Thinking about the two magical treasures, Huo Yi was a little uneasy. He looked at his subordinates and said again.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
All subordinates obeyed the order.
