NOVPUBChapter 1073: Chapter 914 Discussion on Godhood_2 Chapter 1073: Chapter 914 Discussion on Godhood_2 Under the influence of his Mental Strength, the encounter this middle-aged man spoke of must also be a remarkable one.
Therefore, he spoke a few more words with the man, thinking if the middle-aged man could truly offer him an encounter that piqued his interest, he might let him go; it wasn’t out of the question.
An upper-level Saint King cultivator— he didn’t take such a person seriously.
Should any powerful relatives or friends dare to seek vengeance, he would simply kill them as well.
It would just provide a source of power for him and the Blood Prison Sword, even for those accompanying him.
The only thing he needed to be careful about was the timing, to avoid these people harming those close to him.
“Godhood! I found a piece of Godhood within a space… However, the spatial turbulence there is too strong for me to enter, so I haven’t been able to claim it! I can tell you where that place is!” The middle-aged man seemed to grit his teeth internally before revealing.
Godhood, it’s said, encapsulates the essence of a Cultivator from the Divine Realm, the core of their being. Whoever obtains Godhood can become the next Cultivator of the Divine Realm. No wonder he hesitated to share this with Lin Yun.
Cultivators from the Divine Realm are beings that transcend Peak Saint Kings, command the world, and receive obeisance from everyone. From the vast realms inhabited by Spirits to the Netherworld, even the Blood Emperor, a fearsome legend of the Netherworld with terrifying power, must heed their commands.
With such a compelling temptation being just a step away, how could he be content to divulge this secret to his enemy?
But now… his life was in jeopardy…
To save his own life, he was willing to reveal this secret!
Originally, he had planned to transmit this secret to a certain relative or friend… Even if he were to perish in this universe, if his relative or friend became a Godhood cultivator, they could avenge him… but he hadn’t been able to let it go…
By the time he was ready to let go, he no longer had the power to transmit the message!
Of course, he also feared death!
His Spirituality was shattered into countless pieces, meaning that once dead, he truly died with no chance for reincarnation or rebirth!
He was afraid!
“Right… You might not know what Godhood is… Godhood is…” Just at that moment, the middle-aged man suddenly remembered something and hastened to continue.
In the vast world of Spirits, Godhood is an unparalleled treasure. He didn’t believe anyone would remain unmoved once they knew the significance of Godhood.
But he feared the enemy didn’t know what Godhood was and might think it was some insignificant treasure, then simply destroy him with a single strike, resulting in a wrongful death for him.
“Oh? You know of a space containing a piece of Godhood?” At this, Lin Yun raised his eyebrows in mild surprise.
He truly was astonished; Godhood was indeed precious—the most valuable treasure that could be obtained by a divine cultivator after slaying another from the Divine Realm. He guessed that Godhood must be involved.
Because indeed, a piece of Godhood can create a new cultivator of the Divine Realm. When a cultivator assimilates a piece of Godhood, he becomes its new owner, a new divine cultivator.
However, once a cultivator took such an action, he would no longer have potential to advance further.
There are levels to Godhood, unless, in the future, one assimilates a higher level of Godhood.
That this middle-aged man had discovered a piece of Godhood within a space was truly surprising to Lin Yun, for if that divine cultivator had been slain by another divine cultivator, it would make no sense to leave the Godhood unclaimed, suggesting other underlying reasons.
“You know of Godhood?” This time, it was the middle-aged man who was surprised. He truly did not expect this human youth to know about Godhood, because it dawned on him that this universe had only recently broken through its final layer of heaven, and this human youth likely hadn’t even come into contact with the vast world of Spirits, let alone know of the legendary divine cultivators and the even more legendary Godhood.
“Godhood, of course I know about it. Tell me where you saw that piece of Godhood, and I’ll spare your life,” Lin Yun nodded slightly, speaking indifferently.
“`
What a joke. He had once been a prince of the Divine Clan. If he didn’t know about Godhood, then probably few in the world did.
“`
“`
His knowledge of Godhood was far more extensive than that of the middle-aged man before him.
“`
“`
“Could it be…” At this point, the middle-aged man knew that if the other party didn’t let him go, there was no way he could escape. So, while talking with Lin Yun, he began to gather the flesh and blood around him to reconstitute his body. His body was almost fully reformed when he was shaken violently by Lin Yun’s words.
“`
“`
The universe had just shattered its final layer of heaven and hadn’t yet made contact with the outside world. How could this human youth know about Godhood… It must be noted that even among the Spirit beings of the great world, many among the Saint Kings and the mighty didn’t know of it.
“`
“`
He too had discovered Godhood, and only after consulting numerous documents did he vaguely understand its significance.
“`
“`
A conclusion gradually surfaced in his mind: could it be that the other was the reincarnation of a top-tier power, which is how he knew these things… If the other had known this in a previous life, he likely was no ordinary power; his strength probably surpassed his own by eight or nine times.
“`
“`
He had previously thought that the other’s combat awareness and reactions were far inferior to his own. How naive he was.
“`
“`
Furthermore, the other possessed the ability to grow stronger through battle. His earlier attack on the other was truly a death wish.
“`
“`
At this moment, the middle-aged man once again felt regret.
“`
“`
“I can tell you the spatial location of that piece of Godhood, no problem, but you must swear that after you know, you must let me go,” the middle-aged man said, grinding his teeth.
“`
“`
Since the other knew what Godhood was, that would make things easier. Godhood was incomparably precious; perhaps, he could use the location of Godhood to make some demands from the other.
“`
“`
“Maybe, I don’t need to give my wealth to the other; in fact, I might even get the other to give me some wealth. After all, once one obtains Godhood, it’s very likely they’ll become a new Divine Realm cultivator. And once you’re a new Divine Realm cultivator, what is there you can’t have…” The middle-aged man’s thoughts turned, pondering secretly.
“`
“`
“Shh!”
“`
“`
“Boom—”
“`
“`
However, before the middle-aged man could finish his thoughts, a streak of bloodlight appeared before his eyes. The next moment, his entire body burst apart once again.
“`
“`
The cause of this was Lin Yun’s sudden use of the Blood Prison Sword.
“`
“`
“You… you dare kill me again… Don’t you want the Godhood anymore?” The sword strike destroyed most of the middle-aged man’s remaining vitality, and he cried out in alarm.
“`
“`
Another strike like that, and he would be completely annihilated.
“`
“`
“I think, you’re not quite clear on one thing. You’re the one begging me, not the other way around,” Lin Yun said indifferently.
“`
“`
He wanted that piece of Godhood because he wanted to learn about the associated affairs—billions of years had passed, and it had been a long time since he knew what had transpired between the Divine Clan and the New Gods.
“`
“`
He hoped to learn something from it.
“`
“`
But that didn’t mean he absolutely had to know, or that he had to have that piece of Godhood.
“`
“`
Expecting him to swear an oath?
“`
“`
His oaths weren’t to be taken lightly.
“`
“`
Even if the middle-aged man’s requests were something he would definitely do, it still wouldn’t be acceptable!
“`
“`
“If one obtains Godhood, they have the chance to become a new Divine Realm cultivator, a being far more powerful than a Peak Saint King. From the great world of Spirit beings to the Netherworld, your word would be law, unchallenged by anyone. Don’t you want to become a new Divine Realm cultivator, to become such a powerful entity?” the middle-aged man said in panic.
“`
“`
At that moment, he even began to doubt whether the human youth really knew about Godhood or understood how important it was, hence, he quickly explained what Godhood was and its functions.
“`
“`
“There are hierarchies among men, and hierarchies among Gods. While refining Godhood can indeed make one a Divine Realm cultivator, it also means no further progress can be made. A single piece of Godhood doesn’t even catch my eye. But you, do you still want this chance at life?” Lin Yun glanced at the reconstituting flesh and blood of the middle-aged man and spoke slowly.
