Chapter 397: Keep Him
Over the past six months, Wei Huan has continued to feel his godhood gradually approaching perfection, as well as a vague sense of rejection from the world.
He knew that he didn't have much time left in this world.
"Xu Qingqiang, my time is up." Wei Huan decided to stop for a while and not just practice blindly. He didn't have much time left and there were so many people here he needed to see.
Xu Qingqiang stood up: "I'll go with you."
Wei Huan nodded, and they would go to the divine realm together to deal with the biggest crisis after becoming a god.
"But before we leave, come with me and see something." Xu Qingqiang took Wei Huan to the cave opposite the Ancient God Crystal and said, "I took away all the Ancient God Crystals I could. I even broke the barrier of the ninth-level Ancient God Crystal. And then, look, I found this."
Wei Huan’s spiritual sense swept over.
After this space was hollowed out, it almost caught up with the size of the area above, which the demons called "ancestral land."
It can be seen how many ancient god crystals are piled up here.
Now in the middle of the empty underground space, there is a huge black pillar.
This black pillar is not big, it is an upright column with a height of about 50 meters and a diameter of only five or six meters. I think the ancient god crystals were arranged in a circle from high to low, surrounding this black pillar. The closer to the center, the higher the quality.
Wei Huan wasn't surprised to find something nestled among these Ancient God Crystals. After all, they were clearly arranged by rank, purposefully placed there, with restrictions of varying strengths placed on them. The closer one got to the center, the higher the requirements for breaking the restrictions.
Even if Xu Qingqiang didn't do this, he would dig in and take a look when he had time.
So what made Wei Huan's expression change drastically was that the black pillar gave him an unusually familiar feeling.
Why does this thing, the feeling of his spiritual sense falling on it, feel so much like the professional training ground he got: the Undead Ranch?
When I got closer and touched it, I felt exactly the same. They were indeed made of the same material.
After Wei Huan became a god, this undead ranch was still useful to him. During the past ten years, he continued to upgrade his core undead, adding many more level nine undead.
Although the improvement of the Undead Pasture has reached its limit here, there is no higher-level pasture to feed the undead.
But as long as Wei Huan continues to recruit core undead from the Tomb World, he will always need the Undead Ranch, and the Undead Ranch will also help him improve his lower limit of combat effectiveness.
Currently, he has a total summon count of 30.32 billion, of which 17.6 billion are undead transformed from death energy, 12.5 billion are reincarnated from the Impure World Reincarnation, 110 million are summoned by himself, and 110 million are summoned by Diana. The number of Zerg undead is currently only 6 million.
In short, including the number of summons from Dian Ma, Wei Huan has 220 million core undead. Not only can they get the bonus of divine power, but under special circumstances, Wei Huan can also infuse more divine power into them to improve their combat effectiveness. As long as there are undead pastures for grazing, it is not impossible to reach the ninth level for all members.
The combat power of the ninth-level undead is like a pillar of strength among all the races in the current ninth-level world, and Wei Huan can possess a combat power of hundreds of millions, or even billions or tens of billions.
Wei Huan may not be the strongest god in single combat, but he is definitely the most powerful god in expanding territory and defending towns and mountains.
Moreover, Wei Huan's methods are not limited to these. All core undead have the opportunity to improve their grade. Once they become "god-level" under his careful cultivation, even "pseudo-god-level", they can cause non-negligible damage to gods of lower and middle levels.
So although this Undead Ranch has a very basic function, it is also an extremely important tool that Wei Huan cannot do without.
After Wei Huan became a god, he took this thing away, and the humans on Blue Star lacked a professional training ground.
Fortunately, the humans on Blue Star do not have a second [Gravekeeper].
Now in the ninth-level world, one that involves the ancient gods, the abyss clan, and perhaps even the master of life, a world deep underground that may have hidden secrets for billions of years, when Wei Huan saw an object similar to the "Undead Ranch" again, how could he not be surprised?
I raised my hand and touched the black pillar, feeling the difference carefully. It was indeed made of the same material as the Undead Ranch.
Is there a teleportation array here that leads to somewhere?
Wei Huan injected some of his own death energy into it, but there was no response. He turned to look at Xu Qingqiang.
Xu Qingqiang said, "This thing was like this when I found it. Do you want to keep it here or take it away?"
"Can I take it away?"
"I've tried it, and I can store it in the ancient god's body world." Xu Qingqiang continued, "My inner world has just become land. Although it can't hold much, it's enough to take away the Abyss Clan. I've already collected them in advance, so I can leave now."
Wei Huan nodded, "Let's go then."
After Xu Qingqiang took the "black pillar", there was nothing left in this underground world. Wei Huan swept away all the supplies here and had no intention of leaving any for future generations.
After he goes to the divine realm, as long as he can gain a foothold, his descendants will have everything. If he fails and falls, the human race will suffer a devastating disaster. It will be useless to hide in the eighth-level world, and it will be easy to be guilty of possessing the treasure if he keeps it in his hands.
Mortals don't understand the benefits of the ancient god crystals, but the gods do. It is not a good thing for such things to remain in the hands of any mortal.
The two returned to the ground and headed towards the human race, but they could no longer see the Abyss Clan along the way.
The death energy poured into the territory of the Abyss Clan, to see if they could transform some dead undead into replenishing their troops in the final stage.
These undead souls and deathly aura will disappear with Wei Huan's departure. He will take them away, and the world will return to normal.
In fact, Wei Huan himself knew that although he saved mankind and made mankind a strong race, he was not suitable to stay here any longer.
The death aura polluted the world, not only killing all other low-level life forms of other races and transforming them into undead, but also leaving the polluted earth barren and blocking out the sunlight. During the ten years he stayed in the world, the world was also shrouded in darkness.
Not to mention humans, even Zerg need light, heat and plants.
Wei Huan's departure is the best thing for the world.
"Me too." On the way back, the two chatted casually. After talking about this matter, Xu Qingqiang said, "My divine halo not only absorbs energy, but also makes the creatures it touches go crazy, impulsive and irritable. It is also a passive divine halo that cannot coexist with humans.
No wonder gods can't stay in this world for too long and must go to the divine realm within ten years."
At this point, Xu Qingqiang asked curiously, "How much do you know about the Divine Realm?"
Wei Huan thought for a moment and said, "It's not much, but to sum it up, it's a completely theocratic world."
Xu Qingqiang nodded: "I heard that gods of different levels live in different worlds."
"That's right. According to them, the divine realm is divided into three gods, nine saints, and four directions of heaven."
"I've heard of this too. The Three Gods are the divine realms inhabited by three levels of gods, corresponding to the lower gods, middle gods, and main gods respectively. Above the main god level are called overlords. There are nine such overlords in total, and they are named the 'Nine Saints,' each residing in a world they have created. Speaking of which, our challenging world is also considered a saint. The rules of the world and the success or failure of survival are all determined by the overlords. When we cultivate to the god level, we must leave this world and go to the 'Land of the Three Gods.' There is hope for us to establish our own world in the future."
"That's right." Wei Huan added, "The Four Directions of Heaven are the four emperors. Now that one emperor has fallen, the overlords are all vying for the throne. As the God of Disaster, although I may end this chaos according to the prophecy, there is also a high chance of my fall. The previous God of Disaster was a Zerg, and he was killed by these gods together. This time, we just need to remember that we have no friends, only enemies."
Xu Qingqiang's face was solemn: "Indeed, it is difficult to be surrounded by enemies, but as long as we unite as one, we will be able to break through this prison of heaven and earth!"
Both of them knew what fate they were about to face, but they were never afraid.
All along the way, they have been fighting and resisting for their own destiny, for the future of their family and brothers, and for their hometown Blue Star. This belief in protection alone is enough to make them persevere to the end.
The two gods returned to the human race at the same time. This was the first time Xu Qingqiang returned after becoming a god. Although his God Pleaser was placed in the city, he had been waiting for him for eight years and was almost "withered" when they met.
Those who please God live by the "favor" of God. The more they can please God, the better their lives will be.
Wei Huan allowed his God-Pleasers to go on tour several times, and each tour lasted for a long time. The advent of this divine power made these God-Pleasers not only very healthy and strong now, but even their children and their children's children in the future would grow up healthily because of the gods' love.
In comparison, Xu Qingqiang's three groups of spirit pleasers, the white holy rhinoceros, holy elephant and holy ape, were all listless, with dry hair. At a cold glance, they were almost the same as ordinary rhinoceroses and elephants.
Under their expectant gaze, Xu Qingqiang's brows were furrowed into the shape of the Chinese character "川".
"Why should I give them divine power? I am the only one who absorbs others' power, but no one else can absorb mine."
The Titan elder who came to greet us explained, "Great God of Blood, the relationship between gods and God-Pleasers goes beyond this. When you reach the divine realm, if you wish to bless your clan without sacrifice, using God-Pleasers will be the easiest and least depleting way for you to bless them."
"You still say that?" Xu Qingqiang tutted, his eyes sweeping over the three groups of God-Pleasants, and waved his hand, "I can't afford to support three of them. Who thinks anyone can be as powerful as the boss? Just leave that monkey here, and the others can go."
The holy ape that was left behind looked very well-behaved, somewhat like the golden monkey of Blue Planet, but its hair was extremely brilliant gold, a colorful gold.
The long tail is like a squirrel's, fluffy, soft and flexible, and there is a pair of big blue eyes like KISS ME.
Of course, Xu Qingqiang left this group of sacred monkeys not because they were good-looking. Everyone in Daxia understood that this came from the ancient sentiments of Daxia.
Those who were not selected left with regret, while those who were selected were overjoyed. Then, absorbing the divine power that made Xu Qingqiang feel painful, they went on tour singing and dancing.
Their miraculous bodies will transform these divine powers into blessings from the gods, allowing every clan member who watches the God-Pleasant's tour to gain spiritual, physical, or cultivation improvements.
Gods can enhance their own divine power by gaining the faith of their followers. They cannot just take in without giving out. Consolidating the faith through those who please the gods is the best way.
Wei Huan has five groups of God Pleasers, and they can go on very long tours, lasting more than a week.
However, Wei Huan said, "I heard that in the past few years, our human race has just restored five main cities. So, let these God-pleasing people go to each main city. I will bless them all before they leave."
The Titan elder pressed his chest and said, "Thank you, two great gods! Your favor is our eternal pursuit and faith."
The old man spoke to the gods in a series of ways, but Xu Qingqiang ignored them and flew straight to the temple.
This is the first time Xu Qingqiang has come back since he became a god. He will leave with Wei Huan again soon. He also has very important things to do and will have to meet many important people.
The same goes for Wei Huan. The most important person to him is Mu Zhong.
As soon as he flew to the temple, he saw the man walking out of the temple gate.
Although there is no day or night for cultivation and one can go into seclusion for several years at a time, in my heart I will count the days and nights of separation, so the next time we meet feels especially long.
"Why did you come out?" Wei Huan flashed to Mu Zhong's side, hugged him and asked.
Mu Zhong said, "Iron Heart knew you were back and woke me up."
"Did it delay your training?"
"After reaching Sequence Nine half a year ago, I haven't been in seclusion since. I've only been consolidating the gains I've made since advancing."
"Didn't you come to see me?"
"You have to deal with the Divine Realm. I learned that you are cultivating the Ancient Divine Body, which is even more important. Naturally, I cannot disturb you. When you came back this time, I felt that your aura was obviously different."
"How is it different?"
Mu Zhong looked at Wei Huan's eyes and felt the temperature of his body, which was so hot that it seemed like magma was about to melt him.
Mu Zhong said, "The breath of life."
After Wei Huan became the God of Laws, he always gave people a sense of alienation. Even though he tried his best to prove that he had not changed, Mu Zhong, as his bedmate, could not help but feel his gradual indifference to the six desires as his godhood became more complete.
After all, the God of Laws has a body constructed by the power of gods. Strictly speaking, it is a stone filled with laws. What he sees, touches, and feels is not real no matter how similar it is.
But now, the feeling of his heart pounding and the high temperature that made him feel hot was so real.
Flesh and blood have a smell, are hot and heavy. When you are truly aroused, the most genuine desire will be conveyed through the friction of cells and the breathing of the skin.
The strong feeling of thirst even robs me of my breath.
Mu Zhong loves this real and strong sense of possession. As a man, he knows very well that desire and love cannot be separated, at least they cannot. After all, they are both people who use the same method to pursue feelings and instincts.
Wei Huan's chariot, which had not been returned for a long time, was a little unstable today. After all, the weight of the ancient god's body was heavier than ten mountains. Even a full-level chariot could not withstand Wei Huan's slightly unbridled power.
The reason why things finally calmed down was of course because Mu Zhong volunteered. He wanted to have a good time but couldn't dismantle the car, so he had to replace someone else.
What Wei Huan didn't expect was that the ancient god body, as a real flesh and blood body, was not only more real than the original law body, but even more powerful in perception and needs than when he was still a human.
Mu Zhong is so tired.
But Wei Huan is still far from it.
Mu Zhong finally collapsed in exhaustion and sighed, "Your ancient divine body can only be cultivated at the divine level? This isn't even the same species anymore. Can you keep going like this?"
Wei Huan was also in great pain. After enduring for a while, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and flew out with Mu Zhong in his arms.
Suddenly, there was a sound of earth-shaking from the desolate mountains in the distance.
Fortunately, within a thousand miles, there was no one breathing except the diffuse gray fog.
Later, Mu Zhong begged for mercy, "No, no, use your mental strength."
Wei Huan's eyes lit up. Yes, I haven't used my mental power for many years.
"good."
Their foreheads touched.
"Well!"
Five seconds later, Mu Zhong shuddered, rolled his eyes and fainted.
Wei Huan: “…”
Only after Mu Zhong completely fainted did Wei Huan slowly and with great difficulty calm his boiling blood.
After those primitive instinctive needs completely disappeared, Wei Huan lowered his head to look at the sleeping man in his arms.
Tenderness filled my chest, like a layer of sticky, stringy honey, and the feeling of love could not be suppressed.
I remember that many years ago, Mu Zhong once told him that he loved him so much that he wanted to hold him in his mouth, hold him in the palm of his hand, put him in his pocket, take him with him wherever he went, and never be separated from him.
At that time he didn't understand what this sentence meant, until today he realized that he was doing the same thing.
In the past few years, ever since he discovered that the ancient divine body could carry living people away, he had been practicing like crazy, practicing non-stop, with only one thing on his mind: he wanted to take Mu Chong away.
In fact, he had never discussed this matter with Mu Zhong, and once Mu Zhong went to the Divine Realm, he might never come back, and might never see his family again in this life.
Moreover, Mu Zhong has a strong desire for power. He likes to control and manage a force, and he can get great satisfaction from this process.
But he ignored all of this.
Even though he knew it, he still just wanted to take him away.
Whether going to the divine realm, facing encirclement, or even dying, he just wanted to take him with him and hold him in the most important place in his heart.
He thought so, did so, and tried his best to do it, but when he saw Mu Zhong again today, he suddenly didn't dare to speak.
Is it really right for me to do this?
It was obvious that he was working so hard to provide Mu Zhong with a safe environment to live in, but in reality he just wanted to take him to risk life and death. How could he bring up such a contradiction?
After placing a kiss on Mu Zhong's forehead, Wei Huan lay back down, hugged the man tightly in his arms, and closed his eyes.
He didn't need to sleep, but this feeling was so comfortable that he wanted to close his eyes and rest for a while.
So he went to sleep.
When he opened his eyes again, Mu Zhong was still sleeping. Wei Huan sent a wisp of spiritual consciousness into Mu Zhong's sea of consciousness. The sea of consciousness was very quiet, and the slowly rising waves were like a cradle. Mu Zhong was still in a deep sleep.
The sea of consciousness that has been gently stirred by the power of the gods will be of great benefit to Mu Zhong. He is absorbing this power. Although it is not a conventional way of cultivation, it will be of great help to improve Mu Zhong's sea of consciousness once or twice occasionally.
Another thing is that when Wei Huan was cultivating the Ancient God Body, he found that the amount of Ancient God Crystals consumed by his Ancient God Body was much greater than when Xu Qingqiang was cultivating. Although the difference was not yet discernible, through the energy absorption, it can be determined that Wei Huan's Ancient God Body world should be more powerful than Xu Qing's.
Being big definitely has its advantages.
Just like the difference in the size of the world of laws, compared with Xu Qingqiang, he has dozens of times more divine power reserves and quality. This makes him so calm when fighting against the gods who have descended into the divine power. As a new god, he can easily crush and drive them away.
Presumably, the size of the ancient god's body should have the most direct relationship with the future physical strength.
As for the fact that Wei Huan's ancient divine body is stronger than Xu Qingqiang's, Wei Huan believes that this should be most directly related to his sea of consciousness world.
Otherwise it would be difficult to explain why there is such a big difference between him and Xu Qingqiang.
Mu Zhong will definitely cultivate the ancient divine body, and the larger the sea of consciousness, the better. Regardless of whether he takes Mu Zhong away in the end, he will leave behind the cultivation methods and sufficient resources to lay the best foundation for Mu Zhong.
After repeatedly confirming that this method of using mental power to converge, although too stimulating for Mu Zhong, was indeed beneficial to his sea of consciousness, Wei Huan felt relieved.
He let Mu Zhong continue to sleep, and after leaving the marching tent, he folded the tent into his own ancient divine body world.
Feeling Mu Zhong sleeping in his heart, Wei Huan couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth. He flew into the sky happily and was about to fly towards the human city.
Iron Heart suddenly jumped out, and the mecha figure flew back and forth in front of him, looking panicked. Finally, it circled around Wei Huan and asked, "Where did you take Mu Zhong?"
Wei Huan was a little surprised: "You can't find him?"
"Yeah, yeah, why is there no signal all of a sudden? Did you hide him?" The mecha figure circled around Wei Huan. "Speaking of which, that ancient divine body you cultivated in the Abyss Clan is so strange. Why is my database blank? Shouldn't there be something I don't know? There's always been a lot of unknown information lately. I wanted to deduce the calculations from the beginning, but it crashed twice. It crashed twice!"
Wei Huan lowered his eyes to look at him, his good mood making the corners of his mouth always have a faint smile, "Do you want to know? Then make a backup copy."
"ah?"
The mecha figures separated into two, and Wei Huan could vaguely feel that these two completely identical AI lives were connected to this world. They were order managers, databases, observers, and an important part of the challenge world.
Wei Huan didn't give the mecha man any time to react, and the ancient god body directly swallowed the backup mecha man.
The mecha figure left outside had a blank expression on his face, digital question marks flickering in his eyes. He asked Wei Huan in confusion, "Huh? The backups have also lost contact with me? Where did you hide them?"
Wei Huan got the answer, his brows relaxed, and he said, "Don't worry, the other you will accompany him."
"Ah? Could it be that the other world you opened up has completely broken away from the rules of this world and has its own operating logic?" The mecha man screamed.
No way? No way? Wei Huan is only a lower-level god, far from creating the world!
How is that possible!!
