NOVPUBChapter 1285: Chapter 1012: 500 Years Chapter 1285: Chapter 1012: 500 Years “My lord!”
“Greetings to my lord!”
Frubor and Lily Emperor arrived with their group, bowing and saluting to Lin Yun.
“You already know that apart from their realms, godhoods differ in quality as well, with the number of golden lines representing the quality. The more golden lines a godhood has, the higher its quality and potential. Most of your godhoods have three or four lines, which is not low,” Lin Yun said after allowing the ghost practitioners to rise.
The ghost practitioners listened intently.
“Now, I am giving you an opportunity to enhance the quality of your godhood to six lines. However, it requires you to destroy your current godhood and break through the Divine Realm once more. Who among you is willing?” Lin Yun asked, looking at the ghost practitioners.
“Six lines in godhood? Destroy our godhood and break through the Divine Realm again?” The ghost practitioners were shocked.
They had already learned from Lin Yun that the difference in the number of golden lines on godhoods meant vast differences in innate potential. Most of their godhoods had three to four lines, and one even had two lines. If they could upgrade to six lines, the significance was enormous.
Still… to destroy their godhoods… and break through the Divine Realm again… it was no small matter!
Having cultivated from ordinary cultivators step by step to the Divine Domain Realm, they understood deeply the power of the Divine Domain and the gap between the Peak Sacred Domain and the Divine Realm. If they destroyed their godhoods, it would be a drop back to mortality. Could they really return to the Divine Realm? 𝚗ov𝚙𝚞𝚋.c𝚘m
“I am willing!” Just then, a ghost practitioner of the Divine Realm stepped forward, speaking excitedly.
This Divine Realm ghost practitioner was the very one with only two lines in his godhood. Below two lines was only one, which meant his godhood quality was almost the lowest. Now, with the chance to upgrade to six lines, how could he not be willing?
During this time, he keenly felt the gap between his two-line godhood and those of higher quality. His strength had increased at a fraction of the speed of those with three lines and a tiny fraction of those with four lines, despite millions of years of cultivation.
It frustrated him immensely that two peers who had broken through the Divine Realm after him were now stronger than he was.
Not to mention the invisible bottlenecks that hindered him.
Six lines in godhood, who knows how many times it would increase his cultivation speed! At the very least, it would be hundreds of times, perhaps even a thousand times! Plus, with reduced bottlenecks… it was a tremendous opportunity!
As for the risks? With such a grand opportunity, what did a few risks matter?
Besides, these were words from the Blood Emperor himself.
Who was the Blood Emperor?
The number one powerhouse of the Netherworld, slicing new layers of heaven in the Netherworld as easily as having a meal, capable of breaking through nine layers in one breath, a peerless warrior who had shattered dozens of layers!
He slew those from the Divine Realm as if slaying dogs! Didn’t you see he had several mid-grade godhoods at his disposal? Without slaying those of the medium Divine Realm, where would so many of that level of godhood come from?
One thing now was certain: the Blood Emperor possessed the ability to create a natural Divine Realm!
Didn’t you see that the Blood Emperor had summoned several of his peers a while ago, and all of those peers had naturally broken through to the Divine Realm?
Wait… the Blood Emperor said… he could elevate their godhood to six lines… so, a while ago… could it have been an experiment with those peers?
Now, after a successful experiment, was he calling them?
A while ago, the Blood Emperor summoned eight ghost practitioners, and in the end, all eight broke through to the Divine Realm!
Does this mean that the Blood Emperor’s experiment resulted in a one hundred percent success rate?
Of course, those eight ghost practitioners were all initially of the Saint King Realm… whereas they would have to destroy their godhoods from the Divine Domain Realm, inevitably facing more risks…
However, it’s still the same point: with such a tremendous opportunity, what do a few risks count for?
“I am willing too!”
“I, too, am willing!”
The other ghost practitioners weren’t fools either. They quickly realized this and agreed one after another.
Actually, by now they were all very loyal to Lin Yun. In cultivating his subordinates, Lin Yun always prioritized loyalty. With just one command from Lin Yun, they would be willing to risk their lives to carry out any task.
However, this time, Lin Yun had given them the choice, prompting them to consider subconsciously.
“Alright, then I will help you destroy your godhood…” Seeing that all the Ghost Practitioners had voluntarily agreed, without any coercion, Lin Yun nodded slightly and said with a smile.
“Buzz!”
As his words fell, the Blood Prison Sword appeared in Lin Yun’s palm.
Destroying the Ghost Practitioners’ godhood with the Blood Prison Sword was to prevent the waste that would come from them destroying their own godhood.
It should be known that there was a great amount of Chaos Power within.
However, care was needed; the Blood Prison Sword had the ability to absorb the enemy’s talent potential, and Lin Yun had to control the sword so it wouldn’t absorb the Ghost Practitioners’ talent potential.
Otherwise, there might be significant trouble when he subsequently attempted to enhance the Ghost Practitioners’ talents and potential.
Seeing Lin Yun release the Blood Prison Sword, the Ghost Practitioners didn’t show any panic, trusting Lin Yun to do as he wished.
Soon, the divine power of each Ghost Practitioner’s godhood was gradually absorbed by the Blood Prison Sword and eventually vanished without a trace. Because the process was gradual, it did not cause the harm to the Ghost Practitioners that had originally been anticipated.
In less than half a day, Lin Yun had absorbed all of the Ghost Practitioners’ godhood and thus obtained a great amount of Chaos Power.
“In the time that follows, you will cultivate by my side!” Lin Yun looked at the Ghost Practitioners and said.
“Yes!”
The Ghost Practitioners obeyed.
…
In the time that followed, Lin Yun continuously cultivated these Ghost Practitioners’ talents.
During this period, new Ghost Practitioners at the Saint King Level with talented loyalty were constantly selected to join.
If managing one sheep is a task, managing two is but a matter of herding; since Lin Yun was spending the time, he did not mind cultivating more highly talented Ghost Practitioners as subordinates.
Although this would increase his expenditure, Lin Yun valued time more.
If he could cultivate talented Ghost Practitioners sooner, they could also spend many more years practicing in the Netherworld.
One year… Two years… Three years…
Time slowly passed by.
In the blink of an eye, three hundred years had passed.
During this period, some Cultivators already felt they could break through to the Divine Realm, but Lin Yun was not in a hurry to let them break through. He wanted to see if their talent potential could be further improved.
He wondered if it would be possible for them to condense seven Golden Lines of Godhood upon their breakthrough to the Divine Realm.
If he could cultivate a group of Ghost Practitioners capable of condensing seven Golden Lines of Godhood, the significance would far exceed cultivating a group that could only condense six.
After five hundred years, the number of Ghost Practitioners cultivating alongside Lin Yun had reached over fifty.
“It seems that it can’t be done this way, or perhaps it needs more time…” One day, after five hundred years, Lin Yun opened his eyes and sighed softly.
In the last two to three hundred years, Frubor, Lily Emperor, and others from the first group that had cultivated by his side, showed no change in their talent potential under his sensing.
Perhaps there was a small change, so minor that he could not sense it, or perhaps there really was no change at all.
If it were the latter, this continuous effort could prove futile, even after ten million or a hundred million years, unable to further enhance the Ghost Practitioners’ talent potential.
“Unless there is an unexpected development, you should be able to condense six Golden Lines of Godhood if you now break through to the Divine Realm. You can choose to break through now, or you can opt to break through later…” After contemplating for a moment, Lin Yun looked at some of the Ghost Practitioners and said.
“Originally, I wanted to see if your talent potential could be raised again, but…” Lin Yun then shared his sensations with the Ghost Practitioners, allowing them to make their own choice.
