NIP 240. Chapter 240 You Can Upgrade By Killing Monsters!
240. Chapter 240 You Can Upgrade By Killing Monsters!
The Shiling Ancestor was in a panic.
Previously, it had been calm and composed, completely indifferent to the current crisis, but now it had lost its composure.
"What the hell is going on?!"
"Why is the power of the Great Dao Laws that I summoned all uncontrollably leaving me?!"
This is so unscientific!
The Shiling Ancestor roared in frustration.
Having lived for millions of years and experienced countless holy wars, it had never encountered such a bizarre situation before.
It had never even heard of someone forcibly plundering and capturing the power of the Great Dao Laws that it had comprehended and refined.
So it couldn't understand at all what kind of abnormality it had encountered today, and how it possessed such a bizarre and strange ability.
As a devouring spirit insect, even if its cultivation reached the realm of a True Saint, its strongest Divine Ability was still the "Devouring Spirit" path.
But now.
It encountered a natural nemesis with a Lingxu physique and a sea of consciousness space far beyond its ability to explore. Its Devouring Spirit Divine Ability had become completely useless.
If even the power of the Great Dao Laws that it had painstakingly collected and refined became ineffective.
Then the Shiling Ancestor would become a trapped turtle, unable to actively leave this sea of consciousness space.
Thinking that it might be trapped in this sea of consciousness for a lifetime, and that Liu Zimo would soon break through and awaken.
The Shiling Ancestor couldn't help but shudder!
"No, I absolutely can't just sit here and wait for death!"
"Once Liu Zimo breaks through and fully awakens, I will definitely become even more passive!"
"But without the Spirit Web, all kinds of Devouring Spirit Divine Abilities are useless. How can I escape from the current predicament and break free?"
The Shiling Ancestor's mind surged, and madness flashed in its eyes.
After a moment, the Shiling Ancestor seemed to have made a certain decision, gritted its teeth and stomped its foot:
"If it really doesn't work, I can only use the Origin Prohibition Art, sacrificing half of my lifespan and spiritual power, and fight to the death!"
Passively waiting for death is definitely not the style of the Shiling Ancestor.
So even if it has to sacrifice half of its lifespan and cultivation, it is willing to do so!
Thinking about it, it took action.
The Shiling Ancestor didn't waste any time and immediately started to activate the forbidden art, sacrificing half of its life source and spiritual power cultivation, causing its own cultivation strength to instantly increase thirty times!
Boom!
Its true form appeared, and its originally massive body, like a towering mountain, instantly swelled after its cultivation strength increased thirty times!
In the blink of an eye, it turned into a terrifying behemoth with a height of about a million meters!
Standing upright in the center of the sea of consciousness, like a demon god, it exuded a suppressed and fearful aura from the inside out!
"Oh my god!"
Yao Lingling, who had already merged into the sea of consciousness, couldn't help but exclaim when she saw this.
She never expected that the Shiling Ancestor, who was already at the peak of the True Saint realm, could transform again!
"What kind of Divine Ability secret technique is this? There is no relevant record in this insect's inherited memory?"
"Could it be a certain innate Divine Ability that can only be awakened after reaching the realm of an Enlightened Saint?"
"It's over, it's over!"
"After this old thing transforms, its body size has increased dozens of times, and its cultivation strength must have soared!"
"Under these circumstances, can the master still hold on?"
"If the Ancient Spirit Devourer discovers the boundary of the master's sea of consciousness and weaves the Spirit Net, everything will be ruined!"
"..."
Yao Lingling trembled with nervousness.
The Ancient Spirit Devourer was already a top-tier True Saint, and now it had used secret techniques to directly increase its cultivation and physical form by dozens of times.
Correspondingly, its Devouring Spirit Divine Ability would undoubtedly be greatly enhanced again.
The spiritual threads that could originally extend to a range of five hundred thousand or even one million meters might now be able to extend outward to three million or even five million meters!
And Liu Zimo, he had just recently advanced to the level of an Initiate Saint!
Even if his sea of consciousness was vast, could it surpass three million or even five million meters?
Sure enough!
Under Yao Lingling's close observation, the transformed Ancient Spirit Devourer immediately extended its countless spiritual threads, shooting and spreading in all directions!
Swish!
Countless golden threads scattered like flowers, with the body of the Ancient Spirit Devourer as the center, spreading out in all directions.
Ten thousand meters, one hundred thousand meters, one million meters, two million meters...
All the threads had already flown beyond Yao Lingling's perception range, but they still did not stop, continuously extending and exploring outward.
As time passed, Yao Lingling's mind became increasingly tense.
It felt like this time, Liu Zimo was truly in great danger!
After transforming, the Ancient Spirit Devourer's strength had long surpassed that of an ordinary top-tier True Saint by ten or even dozens of times.
Even if Liu Zimo was amazing and extraordinary, could he really be stronger than the Ancient Spirit Devourer, whose strength had increased by dozens of times?
"If I come out now and acknowledge my ancestry, I wonder if it will be too late?"
"I am the only royal worm that survived in this battle of the Gu King. The Ancient Spirit Devourer might not be willing to kill me and there should still be a chance."
"Besides, the Ancestor has personally experienced Liu Zimo's power and abnormality. If I say that everything before was forced and there were no other options, the Ancestor should be able to understand..."
In despair, Yao Lingling even began to think about how it would protect itself after the Ancient Spirit Devourer completely controlled Liu Zimo's sea of consciousness.
As members of the Devouring Spirit Worm clan, they naturally knew how terrifying and troublesome their Devouring Spirit Divine Ability was.
Once the Spirit Net formed, Liu Zimo's entire sea of consciousness would immediately change hands and become completely controlled by the Ancient Spirit Devourer.
By then, its hiding place would inevitably be discovered by the Ancient Spirit Devourer.
If it couldn't come up with a suitable reason to gain the trust of the Ancient Spirit Devourer, it feared that it would also be in great danger!
"Roar~!"
At this moment, in the center of the sea of consciousness, the god-like Ancient Spirit Devourer suddenly raised its head and let out an angry, unwilling, and gloomy roar.
"This is impossible!"
"My spiritual threads have already extended to six million meters, why can't I explore the boundaries and foundation of this sea of consciousness?!"
"This is impossible! Even the Spirit Origin Body couldn't be this abnormal!"
"Roar~!"
"Could it be that the heavens want to destroy me?!"
Hearing the Ancient Spirit Devourer's desperate roar, Yao Lingling, who had completely given up hope and was pondering how to gain the Ancient Spirit Devourer's trust and acknowledge its ancestry, couldn't help but feel a surge of spirit!
It was so familiar with this scene of despair and angry emotions.
Wasn't it the same when it first invaded Liu Zimo's sea of consciousness?
"Really?"
"Could it be that even the transformed Shiling Ancestor cannot probe the boundaries of the host's sea of consciousness?"
"Is it necessary to be so awesome?"
"The reputation of the Shiling nemesis is well-deserved! But then again, I'm really curious about how vast the host's sea of consciousness is!"
"..."
With the angry roar of the Shiling Ancestor, Yao Lingling's anxious and uneasy mood completely relaxed.
Unable to probe the boundaries of the sea of consciousness, unable to weave a net, even the transformed Shiling Ancestor cannot escape this world!
Just wait for the host to wake up, there are ways to deal with this old thing!
At this moment.
As the time of the forbidden technique expired, the Shiling Ancestor's figure rapidly shrank, and his cultivation aura also plummeted.
In the blink of an eye, the Shiling Ancestor, who had just been like a demon god, returned to his original form. Not only was he mentally depressed, but his cultivation realm also directly dropped to the initial stage of the Saint realm!
At this moment, the Shiling Ancestor sat in despair on the "sea" surface, full of despair and disbelief, muttering to himself:
"How is this possible?"
"This doesn't make sense!"
"I clearly used the Shiling forbidden technique, and the detection range of the spiritual thread extended to six million meters away. Why can't I probe the boundaries of this sea of consciousness?"
"What kind of freak has the host encountered? How can he have such a vast sea of consciousness..."
Yao Lingling couldn't help but sneer when he heard the Shiling Ancestor's doubtful muttering.
Is this all he's got?
Compared to the stimulation and blows Yao Lingling has experienced in this sea of consciousness for over a year, the Shiling Ancestor is just getting started!
Unfortunately, even though he used the forbidden technique and his cultivation greatly declined, the Shiling Ancestor still has the cultivation strength of the initial stage of the Saint realm.
Otherwise, Yao Lingling really wants to take this opportunity to give this old ancestor a more profound lesson.
Outside the sea of consciousness.
Within the boundary passage, holy-level demons and monsters continue to teleport to the Earth realm.
This makes the local true saints like Kong Sheng and Liu Yuansheng, who were already at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, instantly fall behind.
Even though they have the advantage of the local laws, their saint-level strength can be perfectly displayed, but in the face of one against two or even one against three or four situations...
The seventeen true saints of the Earth realm are gradually losing their momentum, and several saints have even suffered heavy injuries!
Boom!
Boom!
The collision of laws, the dispersion of saintly intentions. In order to prevent the flames of war from spreading to the human cities below, Kong Sheng, Qingyun Ancestor, and Liu Yuansheng are all trying their best to control the scope of the battle in the void.
Below the void.
The human cities in various parts of the Earth realm are also not calm. Stimulated by the will of the demon saints, the billions of monsters that have already existed in the Earth realm simultaneously launch a tidal wave-like attack on the nearest human cities.
All major cities are in continuous warfare, fighting on their own.
Many cities within the Great Xia territory, due to the protection of the ancient sects' gates and the guardian formations, have suffered losses within a controllable range.
But those human cities outside the Great Xia territory have suffered heavy damage, with rivers of blood flowing.
Countless human warriors and extraterrestrial monsters have died one after another in the fierce battle, and the aura of blood and slaughter rises to the sky, even the recently revived will of the Heavenly Dao has been greatly impacted.
"They are buying time!"
Kong Sheng suddenly roared, loudly calling out to all the human saints around him:
"Fellow Daoists, have you not sensed it?"
"The laws of the Great Dao in this realm have been greatly affected, and the suppression of these laws on them is rapidly weakening!"
"Fellow Daoists, let us no longer hide. Once these demon brats adapt to the laws of this realm, their true saintly power will be fully restored, and we will truly become fish on the chopping board, at the mercy of others!"
After speaking, Kong Sheng took the lead and directly unleashed the immense power of the laws of the Great Dao contained within the sacred artifact in his hand.
Boom!
The Great Dao roared, and the sky was filled with a murderous intent!
Of the four saint-level demons surrounding Kong Sheng, two were directly killed on the spot.
The other two, although fortunate enough to keep their lives, had half of their saintly bodies pierced through and fell to the ground with serious injuries.
Buzz!
Buzz!
The funeral bell rang again, and the world rejoiced!
Then, a spiritual rain fell, nourishing all living beings within this realm!
That's right.
Although the deaths of these foreign demon saints also triggered the tolling of the bell, the sound of the bell was pleasant and clear, without any hint of sadness or gloom.
All the human beings living on Earth felt a sense of joy and pleasure deep in their hearts.
And Kong Sheng, who directly killed two foreign demon saints, had his luck gathered, favored by the Heavenly Dao, and an endless stream of spiritual resonance poured into his body!
Seeing this, Kong Sheng's mind shook.
He never expected that killing foreign saints in this native realm would bring such opportunities and benefits!
Luck and spiritual resonance converged!
All the power of the laws of the Great Dao that he had previously consumed in order to unleash secret techniques was instantly replenished!
Not only that.
Even the three different powers of the laws of the Great Dao that Liu Zimo had sealed within him before were directly comprehended in the state of being blessed by the Heavenly Dao and having luck on his side!
Now, he had fully comprehended a total of thirteen powers of the laws of the Great Dao, and his cultivation strength skyrocketed by fifty percent!
Kong Sheng was ecstatic in his heart, without any hesitation. He directly waved the feather fan in his hand and charged towards the other two severely injured saint-level demons.
Killing monsters to level up!
This was an extremely rare and supreme opportunity!
If he missed this chance, who knows when he would have such an easy time comprehending the Great Dao and improving his cultivation strength again!
Swish!
With a swing of his hand, another saint-level demon died in Kong Sheng's hands!
Feeling the sharp increase in the power of luck on his body once again, the influx of the spiritual resonance of the Great Dao also doubled.
Kong Sheng's eyes shone as if he had seen the hope of breaking through to Ascension!
Smack!
He kicked away the bodies of the two demon saints blocking his path!
Without stopping, Kong Sheng enthusiastically waved the feather fan in his hand and continued to charge towards another foreign demon saint!
Beside him.
Liu Yuansheng, Qingyun Patriarch, and Ni Ling, among others, were all energized when they saw this, and they all displayed their strongest killing techniques and secret arts to deal with the foreign demon saints surrounding them!
In an instant, several demon clan saints died tragically.
Similarly, Liu Yuansheng, Qingyun Patriarch, and others who were favored and blessed by the Heavenly Dao were all filled with vigor and vitality as if they had been injected with chicken blood! (End of this chapter)
