Chapter 395: Cultivating the Ancient Divine Body
These Abyss Clan members were obviously very unfriendly. When they saw Wei Huan and the others appear, even though they were extremely afraid of Wei Huan's divine power, they still showed strong hostility. They either climbed on the mountain wall or hung on the trees, grinning at Wei Huan and the others.
Wei Huan admired these demons for this. Even though their strength was far inferior to that of the gods, they still dared to oppose them directly.
In comparison, the Freedom Alliance is really shit.
Xu Qingqiang walked in front and drove these ferocious demons away. They obviously did not want Wei Huan and others to go in, but Xu Qingqiang's orders were above everything else, so they could only roar in dissatisfaction.
Entering the cave, it is a tunnel that winds all the way down. The tunnel is steep and has no stairs, only traces suitable for demons to climb.
They walked along this winding road for over an hour, as if reaching the depths of the earth, before Xu Qingqiang said, "We're here."
He pointed to the underground space below and said, "You can take a look here, but the really interesting things are deeper down."
"What is this?" Wei Huan looked at the huge underground space and swept his spiritual sense to the end. The space, which was larger than a large city, was full of ruins. There seemed to be something among the ruins.
"The demons' ancestral land. They came from here. And unlike us, who have gone through challenges and layers of tests, the demons seem to have been born here."
Wei Huan raised his eyebrows: "Indigenous people?"
"That's right, the Abyss Clan is the native inhabitant of the Ninth Level World."
Wei Huan thought of something. He turned around and said to Captain Xue, Jacques, and the others, including the Titan Elder, "Look here and see if there's anything unusual."
Then Wei Huan asked Xu Qingqiang to lead the way and go deeper.
Although he has become a god, he finds that he only has a superficial understanding of the real world, or perhaps becoming a god is the beginning of his seeing the truth.
Leaving the underground space and walking deeper underground, Wei Huan also felt a palpitation as he went deeper and deeper.
Soon, they arrived at a much smaller underground space. The stones here were glowing red, and a faint energy crystal flowed through them. Wei Huan raised his hand to touch it, and then said in surprise, "So there's a barrier. No wonder I felt something was wrong."
Xu Qingqiang nodded, placed his palm against the wall, and pressed down with force. His nails pierced into the barrier with difficulty, and when he pulled his fingernails back, he grabbed a red energy crystal in his palm.
The barrier on the wall was instantly repaired, and without the barrier's cover, the energy crystal exuded an aura that Wei Huan was very familiar with.
"Ancient God Crystal?"
Wei Huan took the red energy crystal and was sure what it was without having to feel it specifically.
Just recently, he discussed with the Ancient God Worm the uses of the Ancient God Crystal. As the most original energy, it is an excellent material for the gods to heal their injuries, practice, and even refine equipment.
With such a treasure, it is no wonder that ancient gods are becoming increasingly rare. It is a crime to possess a treasure.
Xu Qingqiang said: "Those ancient gods and demons are in seclusion here for a long time, absorbing the free ancient god crystals here, tempering their bodies step by step to achieve the ancient god body.
They can't break the seal here, but we have no problem, Boss, I want to practice both ancient and modern methods."
The so-called "cultivation of both ancient methods" means the cultivation of both the ancient divine body and the divine law. Wei Huan understood it.
"Do you think it can work?" Wei Huan pondered. This was a good idea, but without previous experience, it was hard to say whether they would go astray. "After achieving Law Godhood, our bodies will be composed of divine power, while the ancient gods are forged of flesh and blood. This is completely opposite, and I'm afraid the laws of heaven and earth won't allow it."
Xu Qingqiang said seriously, "I thought so at first, until I saw the secret cultivation method of the Abyss Clan. Maybe it can really be achieved."
Wei Huan frowned: "The devil's cultivation method?"
"Indeed, it's highly feasible. They've been exploring this path for generations over the past eons, and now it seems they've finally found it. Those Ancient God Demons are a case in point. I've examined their bodies, and every cell is like a small world. Just looking at their physical qualities, they've almost reached the divine bodies of Law Gods. Furthermore, I've discovered that each of them has astonishing potential. If it weren't for the lack of Ancient God Crystals, they would have long since shattered the void and achieved Ancient God Bodies."
Wei Huan did not disbelieve Xu Qingqiang's statement. At least Xu Qingqiang must have made a rigorous data comparison on the strength of those ancient gods and demons.
The only thing that puzzled him was that everyone had told him so far that ancient gods could not be copied and that only beings born and raised by nature were called ancient gods.
But now, this "absolute" has been broken.
Is it really broken? Or is it just a false happiness?
"Have you explored it? What's behind this seal?"
"I've explored it. Thirty meters down, I still find Ancient God Crystals, and they're of better quality. But the seal gets stronger the deeper I go. I can't go any deeper."
"That means this seal was cast by at least a mid-level god?"
"I think it's at least the main god level. Intermediate gods can't reach this level."
Wei Huan pondered, "A great being at the dominant level set up a challenge world in order to fight for the throne. He gathered all the worlds together, gave them resources, and helped them cultivate skills to become ninth-level practitioners. Finally, he cultivated gods in the ninth-level world like raising insects."
Wei Huan looked at the wall made of ancient god crystals in front of him and said seriously, "I thought that after becoming a god, we would serve under that master, but the truth is that we have neither been recruited by the master nor been assigned to any faction. We are even fighting each other.
Have you ever thought about what the deeper meaning is? What does it represent? "
Xu Qingqiang thought for a while and looked at Wei Huan with clear eyes.
Wei Huan: “…”
He and Mu Zhong were used to analyzing things this way. No matter whether their guesses were right or wrong, they could always continue the conversation and eventually get the most likely answer.
But this method obviously does not apply to Xu Qingqiang.
Even if you become a god, those who are not smart enough still cannot figure it out.
Perhaps even gods have different IQs.
Wei Huan could only continue, "This is the first point. What is the Life Master going to do? Where is the Life Master?"
"Yeah." Xu Qingqiang understood and nodded. "Once we find him, we'll know what he's going to do."
"..." Wei Huan was silent for a moment. This logic was not wrong. Then he continued, "Secondly, from the first level world to the eighth level world, it is a combination of indigenous people and survivors. Indigenous people will spawn as wandering monsters and appear in low-level treasure chests. The survivors are deep in the ruins and are a foreshadowing of the next world.
In the past, I always thought that the Ninth Level World was just a battlefield for all races, and that there were no indigenous people. Now that indigenous people have appeared, will there be ruins? What are the ruins?
Xu Qingqiang nodded. He understood. "Do you suspect this is a relic?"
Wei Huan smiled: "Yes, this is the relic, a relic specially prepared for the advancement of gods."
Xu Qingqiang frowned. "Even the path to advancement for the gods has to be arranged. This Overlord has great ambitions."
"Well, I guess He doesn't want low-level gods, but stronger gods. He wants more than just the God of Law. It seems that His purpose in leaving behind the Abyss Demons from the very beginning was to allow this race to try to evolve the cultivation path of the Ancient Gods."
"Yes, on that supreme battlefield, ordinary main gods are probably cannon fodder. So what He needs is a stronger god, a true subordinate who integrates the Ancient God and the God of Law." After Xu Qingqiang finished speaking, he smiled with sharp teeth, "Isn't He afraid that if we become stronger, we will destroy Him as well?"
Wei Huan fell silent after hearing this. He seemed to be thinking for a long time before he looked up and said, "Let me see the cultivation method you highly recommend. If it works, we can walk sideways to the Divine Realm."
"good."
The two returned to the larger underground space above, where it was already as bright as day.
A large number of suspended starlights floated above the city, truly illuminating the demon's ancestral land that had been buried underground for endless years.
The strange thing is that over the years, the demons' civilized habits have not made any progress. They still have no ability to build buildings, no written language heritage, and are not good at communication.
Wei Huan looked at the ruins that were almost the same as the ground. He couldn't tell what was strange about them, but he just felt a strange sense of incongruity.
Jacques came over and said, "There are no written words or images left here. They have always maintained the most primitive lifestyle. They can't even make fire. I don't mean that raw meat and blood-drinking demons need to make fire. What I mean is that they don't seem to have the ability to create."
However, they were able to create a cultivation method that even amazed Xu Qingqiang. This is simply too contradictory.
Wei Huan looked at Xu Qingqiang.
Xu Qingqiang hooked his finger, and the five ancient demon gods who had followed them came out from the darkness.
When they came in front of Wei Huan, they still had that savage attitude without any intelligence, just like real wild beasts, living only by instinct.
However, in front of Xu Qingqiang, they understood something. They straightened their three heads and six arms, sat cross-legged in a row in front of Wei Huan, and closed their eyes to practice.
Wei Huan opened and closed his eyes, his gaze falling on their bodies. He thought he would see the so-called meridian map, but unexpectedly, what he saw was each cell breathing, rising and falling, becoming more and more solid with each faint sound.
What surprised Wei Huan was that the mass of each cell was comparable to a hundred-ton boulder. There were so many cells in the human body, how terrible must the physique of these guys be!
He stared like this for a long time, paying close attention to the details, including every rotation and vibration of cells during breathing. Gradually, a picture of cultivation appeared in Wei Huan's mind.
Wei Huan subconsciously followed the cultivation diagram, but within a few breaths, a few thin bubbles appeared in his body, which seemed to be able to burst with a poke.
Is this a cell membrane?
In his divine body composed entirely of laws, matter that shouldn't exist appeared in just a few breaths. It was simply outrageous!
Xu Qingqiang looked at the shock on Wei Huan's face and said, "Do you feel it? I tried it for a longer time before you came here. Now my body is filled with more power. It feels great to get stronger every moment.
Boss, how about letting me try it first? If this path is really feasible, we won’t be afraid when we reach the Divine Realm.”
Wei Huan thought about it and nodded. "My professional level hasn't reached Sequence Nine yet. I'll stay here to cultivate for a while. I'll be by your side and can intervene if there are any problems. You should also be careful and stop immediately if you notice any problems."
"good."
The two have been brothers for many years and have a tacit understanding. After a few words, the decision was made and the matter was settled.
In addition, Wei Huan discovered that this set of skills can only be practiced by gods at present, because the abyss demons cannot communicate and can only be demonstrated by operating the skills. However, practitioners below the level of gods, even the "microscopic" abilities of law practitioners cannot see through the true operation of the skills.
Of course, after they have mastered this set of exercises, they can simplify and compile it according to the situation, or pass it on.
Just not now.
The people who followed them left soon, and only Wei Huan and Xu Qingqiang stayed here. In addition, there were five ancient demon gods who always wanted to attack Wei Huan if they disagreed. They served as a "living practice" for their cultivation, showing them the way of cultivation at all times.
Wei Huan stayed to practice with Xu Qingqiang for a few days, and seeing that he was doing well, he found another place to retreat and strive for Sequence Nine.
This time he was practicing from a high place back down, and the progress was extremely fast. In less than two years, a force of death surged out from the deep and vast underground space and quickly filled this space.
In the darkness, ghosts cried and gods howled, the underworld danced wildly, and hideous and twisted spirits crawled in the dark, turning this world into a ghost den.
But soon, all the power was withdrawn until it completely disappeared. Wei Huan, who was sitting cross-legged in the cave, slowly opened his eyes.
He successfully reached the ninth level of the gravekeeper sequence: [Death God], and achieved great perfection in this cultivation method.
In his tomb world, nine circles of tombs have been connected, forming a continent that is hundreds of times larger than a world and has reached the edge of the world.
It was not until this moment that Wei Huan realized that the so-called tomb and the so-called tomb world were actually his own soul.
Challenge World has been using this method to teach them how to cultivate their spirit and soul and develop it to the extreme.
This vast Tomb Continent was the size of his own soul. Compared to combat classes like farmers and gamblers, whose souls could only hold the size of a tomb, his soul was a billion times larger. It was also a million times larger than those of astrologers, sages, and other classes that primarily cultivated spiritual power.
This may be the reason why I am so powerful.
Challenging the world determines a person's career, perhaps by judging by the size of his soul.
So far, he is the only one who has appeared in the [Gravekeeper Sequence]. Perhaps it is because he is the only one who meets the standards?
It’s not that the soul cannot be cultivated, but the innate gap is indeed difficult to make up for, and it is even more difficult to catch up with Wei Huan’s level.
Wei Huan has now cultivated to Sequence Nine, which is equivalent to "eating up" all of his talent potential and developing his soul to the extreme.
If you still want to expand your soul, you may need some special skills or special treasures.
Now that all the tombs in Wei Huan’s professional temple have been connected into a continent, he has the ability to cultivate the core undead to level nine.
For the god-level leader undead who already possess divine power, this improvement is not obvious. The ones who have a more obvious improvement are the other non-leader-level heroic undead.
Especially the worst ones. After ordinary core undead are upgraded to level nine, their combat effectiveness is more than doubled. If they meet someone of Mofidi's level again, I guess if they grab them with all their strength, they will probably leave a white mark like a fingernail mark, right?
Another thing worth mentioning is [Dead Spirits]. Since Wei Huan has become a god and mastered the law of the source of death energy, the Dead Spirits will not change because of his career upgrade until he increases his god level.
[Filthy Undead] is another system of laws. Wei Huan did not practice this law specifically, so there was almost no change.
When filling a wooden barrel with water, look at the shortest board.
The increase in the strength of ordinary core undead is equivalent to raising Wei Huan's lower limit, and Wei Huan is quite satisfied with this.
After all, it is very good to have such an improvement in two years.
Wei Huan left the cave where he had been in seclusion and went deep underground where the ancient god crystals were piled up.
Wei Huan has walked this road countless times in the past two years. As he gradually felt the palpitating power and the faint aura of the ancient god's crystal, he could still detect a subtle sense of incongruity.
Wei Huan thought of something and paused.
He stood there pondering for a long time, then walked forward with a "thump thump" sound.
When Wei Huan arrived at the place where Xu Qingqiang was in seclusion, he found the entrance sealed by the smell of blood. He did not force his way in. It seemed that Xu Qingqiang was still concentrating on his cultivation, and the questions in his heart might not be answered.
Wei Huan, who thought his trip was in vain, suddenly looked up and looked at the ancient demon god hanging upside down in the cave.
The five ancient demon gods have been here from the beginning, guarding Xu Qingqiang closely. After so many years, they are still extremely cruel to him, with consistent loyalty and unchanging hostility. It is like an AI with core conditions set from the beginning. They are so stubborn and stupid that they don't seem like they can survive in the ninth-level world.
Driven by the doubts in his heart, Wei Huan raised his hand and made a light clench. An ancient god demon was pulled out of thin air and its neck fell directly into the middle of his palm.
He tightened his grip.
This ancient demon god had no fear of the gods at all and actually opened his mouth to bite him.
Its claws even left a mark on Wei Huan's arm. Although the scar healed the next second, it was a fact that it was able to attack the gods and injure them.
Wei Huan thought of something, and suddenly black flames emerged from his body. The strength in his hands increased, and at the same time, death energy descended, quickly filling the space and trying to swallow up the ancient god demon.
However, something happened that surprised Wei Huan again.
Not only was this ancient demon god unaffected by his divine power, it was also not contaminated by the law of death. It could also attack Wei Huan like a mad cat, leaving golden marks on Wei Huan's arms with its claws.
What is this?
I hadn't noticed before that they are actually not afraid of gods?
Suddenly, Wei Huan felt a sense of crisis, black devil flames flowed, and he jumped back suddenly.
It turned out that the other four ancient devil gods attacked him at the same time. The aura on their bodies grew stronger rapidly, and when they joined forces, they actually had the strength of lower-level gods who had descended into the divine nature.
Wei Huan had no choice but to release Dian Ma.
After all, close combat in a small space is not his forte.
Dian Ma, who was beyond the god level, waved her tentacles, "puff puff puff", and slammed the four ancient god demons against the wall, wrapping them tightly and trapping them completely.
Looking at the ancient god demon that he was holding in his hand and was also tightly entangled by Dianma's tentacles, he felt that it was not afraid of divine power, not afraid of laws, and its fighting power was still getting stronger.
There were originally eight of these things. Is it possible that they could even kill gods?
Otherwise, how could there be a legend among the Titans that the Abyss possessed demons with the power of gods?
Everything has a traceable path.
Wei Huan was thinking, and at the same time he found that this was not the limit of the strength of this group of ancient gods and demons. They were still struggling and roaring while being suppressed by Dian Ma. Dian Ma's tentacles could not completely control them, and the rocks on the ground fell and flew, and it seemed that they were about to collapse.
Their strength is even stronger than before, and this level is completely capable of suppressing the lower gods of the law of the advent of the divinity.
Ordinary new gods are not much stronger than the gods who have descended.
So my guess is completely reasonable, they do have the ability to kill the new gods.
"Boss!" The blood mist at the entrance of the cave dissipated, and Xu Qingqiang walked out. He was obviously awakened by the noise of the battle and came out in a hurry.
He saw what was happening in front of him and was shocked. "Are they attacking you? Those who devour their masters must be killed!"
As he spoke, the nails on his hands had already sprouted, and he felt a strong murderous intent towards the five ancient demon gods.
"I'll make the first move." Wei Huan asked Dian Ma to release the tentacles. Looking at the ancient god demon who immediately became obedient because of Xu Qingqiang's appearance, the doubts in his heart became more and more intense.
"Tell me again, how did you find this place?"
Xu Qingqiang naturally answered every question, pointing at several ancient demons and saying, "They are the ones who brought me here."
Wei Huan asked, "Including this underground?"
"Yes."
"Did they actively show you the skills?"
"That's right." Xu Qingqiang said this with a beaming smile, "Perhaps I am the destiny they have been waiting for. I am recognized as the boss just because of my domineering aura. Look at my training in the past two years. My physical strength and the laws of nature have improved simultaneously. If you ask me, my combat effectiveness is more than three times what it was before."
Wei Huan nodded. Indeed, he had been thinking since a while ago that these ancient gods and demons were not so much the trump cards of the demon clan as they were the guardians of this secret ancestral land. Only gods recognized by them would be brought to know this secret.
Is this Xu Qingqiang's opportunity?
But he can also get this opportunity, so it should be said that it is their opportunity!
"I have successfully made up for my shortcomings. Next, I will try to cultivate this ancient divine body. You and I have different laws, so there may be a gap when we practice. You have to help me protect the law." Wei Huan summoned the facehugger and discovered a smaller but much more exquisite training room in another direction next to this treasure. He said this to Xu Qingqiang before sitting down in the middle of the room.
Wei Huan knew that there were still many questions that had not been answered, and that his final conclusion might not be correct. However, since he could not see through it no matter what, he might as well stop thinking about it and just keep getting stronger.
If this really was a trap, as long as he was strong enough, he could break through the cage of heaven and earth and gain freedom! !
He has always been like this and should always be like this!!
"Okay, I'll protect you." Xu Qingqiang, who had lit a cigarette at some point, hooked his finger at the five ancient demon gods. "Come here, all of you, show me yourselves. Who are you going to be so aggressive with if you keep baring your teeth? I'll pull out your teeth!"
