Chapter 634A – Raising a God
Chapter 634A – Raising a God
A dignified aura was released, carrying with it a noble coldness that disallowed any blasphemy. It was as if it stood upon the highest heavens, looking down upon all lives in the world. With just a glance, Qin Yu recognized what these numerous shining crystals were – godhead!
Even with Qin Yu’s current will, he still couldn’t help but widen his eyes. His face filled with shock. This was because he had never thought that he would be able to see a complete godhead before.
It had to be known that this was the same as facing a god. Godhead – that was the identity of a god. It contained all of their strength and prestige.
Purple moonlight flashed and a woman in an imperial court dress walked out from the phantom of the moon. As she looked at the godhead in front of her, there was a complex light in her eyes.
“Raising a god…”
This was the first time Qin Yu saw Purple Moon’s true form. He couldn’t help but be shaken by her beauty, but clarity immediately returned to his eyes. “Purple Moon, do you know the origin of this palace?”
“I do not.” Her expression was faint, “I just happen to have experienced something similar to this scene before us.”
Qin Yu furrowed his eyebrows. “Raising a god?”
Purple Moon said, “It’s as you say – it is to raise up a spiritual god.”
Qin Yu’s eyes widened, “How is that possible?”
Purple Moon responded, “In this world, all existences start from death and head towards death. As long as one can live on, what is not possible?”
Qin Yu’s thoughts surged. In his mind, a spiritual god represented the very peak of cultivation. It represented an almost infinite power.
Purple Moon’s words overturned his previous thoughts, opening up a brutal reality before him – even a spiritual god wasn’t free.
This so-called freedom was to be unrestricted by life and death, to laugh at the heavens and earth.
His mouth became chapped. He subconsciously licked his lips and asked, “You once raised a god?”
Purple Moon shook her head, “I have experienced raising a god, but I wasn’t the one to lead it.” She paused for a moment and continued to say, “A god has great power and in itself possesses the karma of cause and effect. Once a god falls from the skies, the world will suffer destruction. To preserve a godhead so that its divine nature doesn’t fall is an extremely difficult task.”
She glanced at Qin Yu, the expression in her eyes unclear.
Qin Yu took a deep breath, “The greater the price, the larger the harvest will be, right?”
Purple Moon said, “If one can successfully raise a god, they can control a portion of that god’s strength. For instance, this god’s strength you see before you is to repair the mortal body and reinforce it.”
Qin Yu earnestly said, “Purple Moon, do I have the qualifications to raise a god?”
Purple Moon responded, “You do not.”
Her answer was simple and direct, without concealing anything at all.
Qin Yu revealed a disappointed look. “I already thought that raising a god would be something that the current me does not have the qualifications to touch upon.”
Purple Moon didn’t respond to him. She looked up at the godhead and said, “Throughout the long passing of years, this godhead hasn’t been able to obtain any strength to supplement it and has lost its divine nature. It is already on the verge of collapse. But, it has another function to me. I will take away the godhead, and whatever remains will belong to you.”
Qin Yu nodded, “Okay.”
Purple Moon lifted a hand and grasped forward. The godhead formed from countless dazzling crystals began to suddenly crack. They turned into innumerable pieces that were wrapped up in purple moonlight.
What was left behind was a drop of green liquid suspended in the air. As Qin Yu’s eyes fell upon it his heartbeat began to accelerate.
His body suddenly developed an immense yearning for that drop of green liquid!
Purple Moon said, “It contains an enormous amount of strength. With the power of your body, you cannot completely absorb it at once.”
After she said this she turned around and vanished into his soul space.
Qin Yu took a step forward. Using his formidable will, he suppressed the impulse to swallow up the green liquid. He took out a jade box and placed the green liquid within. Then, dividing it in half, he placed one half into his mouth.
Bang –
In an instant, Qin Yu felt a blazing flame ignite within his body. The burning temperature was so high that he couldn’t help but cough. His skin turned red as a billowing heat flowed through his veins like molten magma, penetrating his flesh and blood and bones.
It was like his entire body had been placed in a furnace, causing him to suffer from agonizing pain. But, Qin Yu revealed an excited expression.
Within the space of his mind, a giant figure reared back its head and roared; this was the ancient race’s inheritance. It clearly sensed the good fortune that Qin Yu was experiencing. This was a comprehensive promotion of his body. His body was becoming increasingly formidable, tenacious, and more resistant to everything.
A full two hours passed. It was only then that the burning heat flowing through Qin Yu’s body began to gradually die down. His black robes were drenched in a black sweat that had oozed out from his pores, causing him to stink.
During these years, Qin Yu had been injured countless times. Although he had quickly recovered afterwards, there were always some marks left behind. One or two weren’t obvious, but when many of them were placed together they soon became a great hidden danger.
These hidden dangers had gone into hiding. When Qin Yu made a breakthrough in his cultivation and reached the Great Dao realm, they would all erupt at once and become one of his most difficult hurdles in transforming his body into a Great Dao Body.
From the beginning of time, countless proud children of heaven had consumed mind-boggling amounts of time and effort to more easily achieve a Great Dao Body. But now, by relying on half of this drop of green liquid left behind from the godhead, Qin Yu had thoroughly swept away all hindrances that would block him from reaching a Great Dao Body.
This was because the Great Dao Body had two most difficult points. The first was the beginning – but many years ago Qin Yu had already transformed a part of his body into the Great Dao Body. Even if it was only a finger, this was enough!
As long as his cultivation broke through to the Great Dao realm, Qin Yu could successfully achieve a Great Dao Body. Of course, Qin Yu had no idea of this current harvest. But, just the strengthening of his mortal body was enough to fill him with joy.
The mist released from the fountain was the strength released from the godhead after it had been diluted several times over. Even so, this was enough to maintain the bodies of countless walking corpses.
Qin Yu directly absorbed the ‘raw pulp’. There wasn’t much need to continue thinking about the effects. His brain was full with a single thought: Keep going, keep going, keep going!
After absorbing the remaining half drop of green liquid, Qin Yu had a feeling that his body would reach a new boundary.
He lifted the jade box and opened it. Then, he stopped moving. His eyes fixed tightly onto the half drop of green liquid within and his eyes clouded over for some time. Finally, with great willpower, he closed the lid.
Closing his eyes, he let out several deep breaths before suppressing his tumbling thoughts. The mist could corrode the statues and cause them to lose any threat they posed. The effects of the green liquid could only be better. If he kept it with him right now it would be much more useful than directly absorbing it.
But even though he understood this, actually doing it was a great torture to Qin Yu. The enticement of the green liquid to him was a hundred times, a thousand times more intense than any drug!
If his will wasn’t firm enough then he wouldn’t have been able to resist the great impulse coming from his body to swallow the rest of that green liquid. This was especially true after he learned about the green liquid’s astonishing effects…
Qin Yu bitterly smiled and put away the jade box. He feared that if he continued looking at it he would lose control of himself and just swallow it down.
He had to shift his attention somewhere else!
Qin Yu glanced around. After the godhead was taken away, this ‘mirror world’ was still intact, without any sign that it would be destroyed.
As a place to cultivate, this should be sufficiently safe. Moreover, Qin Yu required time to adapt to his new, stronger body.
He sat down cross-legged and took out a pile of stone beads. He picked one up and a flow of heat gushed out.
…
The Three United Trade Association’s great ship soared into the Sea of Bewildering Fog once more. After arriving outside the divine palace, numerous figures stood up on the deck, their expressions dignified.
Mantuo was wrapped in white bandages. Her cold bone-chilling voice sounded out, “Everyone here are elites that are fully trusted by the trade association, and that is the only reason you have the qualifications to participate in today’s mission. So, I won’t repeat anything you already know. I only hope that you can keep the mission in mind.”
Her eyes swept over everyone, “Without hesitation, find that person and bring him back alive!”
Whoosh –
Whoosh –
One after another, experts from the Three United Trade Association submerged into the thick fog. They flew into the towering divine palace, racing in along the cracks.
Mantuo was the last to disembark. “Shu He, anchor the ship here and keep watch. If he wants to leave, this is the only exit.”
Shu He smiled, “Rest assured, as long as I am here he can give up any idea of running away.”
Shu He watched Mantuo’s figure vanish into the fog. He faintly smiled and said, “After waiting for so many years, the chance has finally come. If I can turn them into sacrifices, I will definitely be able to revive…Three United Trade Association, this is what you owe me!”
His smile didn’t change as he whispered beneath his breath. But, a terrifying and dark atmosphere exuded from his body.
Hum –
The ship changed direction. It sailed into the Sea of Bewildering Fog, soon vanishing from sight.
