Chapter 408 Re-entering the Old Divine Abyss
Lu Sheng traversed the warship graveyard and headed straight for the core area of the Old God Abyss.
He knows this road very well.
The first time he came, it took him several days to find the entrance to the core spherical space. Now he can fly there with his eyes closed.
The space ahead was becoming increasingly chaotic. The fluctuations of the laws had intensified, and the density of spatial rifts had increased dramatically. Even an ordinary early-stage Spirit Saint would be overwhelmed just dealing with the spatial rifts in this area.
But for Lu Sheng, who was at the peak of the mid-stage of the Spirit Saint realm, these cracks were just decorations.
With a casual wave of his spatial laws, the cracks in front of him were smoothed out as if they had been ironed.
After half an hour.
A spherical space has appeared.
A spherical membrane, woven from extremely fine threads of law, hangs quietly in space. The membrane is less than one hundred meters in diameter, and is invisible from the outside.
But Lu Sheng knew that inside this thin membrane was a vast space with a diameter of hundreds of thousands of miles.
At the center of that space lay an ancient skeleton the size of a star.
His granary.
Lu Sheng extended his right hand, and gray spatial laws surged from his palm, precisely embedding themselves between the law threads of the spherical membrane.
The threads slowly parted, revealing an entrance about the size of a human body.
Lu Sheng slipped inside.
The entrance closed behind him again.
The scene inside the spherical space was exactly the same as when I left last time.
A pitch-black space. Extremely sparse spiritual energy molecules. In the distance, a huge dark golden sphere floats silently.
That celestial remains.
Lu Sheng took a deep breath.
Last time, he lay on this corpse for nearly a month, absorbing a large amount of primordial gold water, and pushed himself all the way from the peak of the Spirit Venerable to the mid-stage of the Spirit Saint.
This time, he aims to advance from the peak of the mid-stage Spirit Saint realm to the late-stage Spirit Saint realm.
"Dinner is served."
Lu Sheng spread his dragon wings and flew towards the remains of Hengxing.
He landed on the surface of the remains.
Beneath their feet lay a rough, dark golden substance. This substance was extremely hard, harder than any known metal. But its surface was covered with countless cracks and holes, marks left over tens or even hundreds of thousands of years.
From those cracks and holes, a faint golden liquid was seeping out.
Original source of gold and water.
This is what he ate last time.
Lu Sheng sat down cross-legged next to a large crack.
"Heaven-Devouring Furnace."
A gigantic, deathly gray furnace phantom unfolded behind them.
He placed his hands on either side of the crack, and the gravity of the Devouring Furnace suddenly erupted, gripping the primordial gold and water deep within the crack.
boom!
The golden liquid, as if sucked up by a vacuum cleaner, gushed out along the cracks and poured into Lu Sheng's body through his arms.
Lu Sheng grunted.
It's even more intense than last time.
Although his body, at the peak of the mid-stage Spirit Saint realm, was more than twice as strong as when he last came, the quality of his primordial gold and water was not fixed. The deeper one went into the remains, the higher the quality of the primordial gold and water became.
Last time, he consumed the gold liquid that seeped out from the outer layer. This time, the crack is deeper than before, and the quality of the seeping gold liquid is significantly higher.
The spiritual energy surged within his body. The five laws trembled under the impact of the primordial golden water. The small world shook violently.
"Hold on!"
Lu Sheng turned the refining power of the Devouring Heaven Furnace to the maximum.
The gray furnace fire spun wildly, peeling away, refining, and fusing the incoming essence layer by layer.
The excess energy was poured into the small world, where it condensed into clusters of high-density spiritual energy clouds.
The five laws trembled in the impact, and then—slowly began to merge more deeply.
This is the wonder of the original source of gold and water.
It doesn't simply increase energy reserves. It drives the convergence and evolution of laws at a fundamental level.
Each impact thins the barriers between the five laws.
Each impact makes the rules of the small world more stable.
Lu Sheng closed his eyes and devoted all his attention to devouring and refining.
Time becomes meaningless in this isolated space.
one day.
Two days.
Three days.
Five days.
By the fifth day, Lu Sheng felt changes within his body.
The barrier of the mid-stage peak of the Spirit Saint realm is loosening.
The invisible wall that had kept him outside the late-stage Spirit Saint realm began to crack under the daily erosion of the primordial golden water.
"Soon."
Lu Sheng increased the speed of his devouring.
The gravity of the Devouring Furnace doubled. The speed at which the golden liquid flowed into the body increased dramatically.
His body swayed wildly on the edge of its limit. His meridians were stretched to their maximum. Spiritual energy surged within him like a flood bursting its banks.
Seven days.
Nine days.
tenth day.
late at night.
Or rather, at some point on the tenth day—in this space where there is no distinction between day and night, Lu Sheng could only rely on his internal biological clock to determine the time.
A muffled thud came from inside his body.
It's not a sound in the physical sense. It's a vibration at the level of laws.
That barrier—shattered.
boom!!!
The small world suddenly expanded at that moment.
The area of the 350-meter domain expanded dramatically in an instant—
Four hundred meters.
Four hundred and fifty meters.
500 meters!
The five laws spun wildly within the small world, reaching a completely new level of fusion. The barriers between the laws almost disappeared, and the five forces merged into one, transforming into an unprecedentedly powerful force.
In the core area of the small world, the budding elemental spirit seed suddenly blossomed at this moment.
Although it is still a long way from the true Immortal Realm, the germination of the spirit seed has already grown from a "thread" to a "cluster".
Lu Sheng suddenly opened his eyes.
Golden vertical pupils gleamed in the darkness.
"Late stage of Spirit Saint."
He whispered those four words.
Late stage of the Spirit Saint realm.
From the peak of the mid-stage Spirit Saint to the late-stage Spirit Saint. Ten days.
The accumulation of three Spirit Immortal Realm remains, coupled with the impact of the Origin Golden Water of the Old God Abyss, finally allowed him to cross this threshold.
Lu Sheng stood up and stretched his limbs.
The feeling of power in my body is completely different from before.
At the peak of the mid-stage of the Spirit Saint realm, he could shatter a small meteorite with a single punch at full power.
Late stage of Spiritual Sainthood —
With a single thought, he can shatter the space within a radius of 500 meters.
The small world domain expanded from 350 meters to 500 meters. Establishing rules within the domain required almost no mental effort; it was entirely an instinctive operation.
The fusion of the five laws gave birth to new abilities—
The laws resonate.
When the five laws resonate in unison, the resulting destructive force is not a simple superposition of the five laws, but rather amplified many times over.
"Give it a try."
Lu Sheng raised his right hand, and the five laws converged in his palm.
Wind, thunder, fire, water, space.
Five forces work together and resonate.
A gray ball of light, the size of a bean, appeared in his palm.
The ball of light was very small. So small that it was almost invisible.
But the energy it contains—
Lu Sheng flicked his wrist casually.
The ball of light flew three hundred meters and crashed into a raised, dark gold substance on the surface of the star's remains.
A silent explosion.
The dark golden protrusion vanished instantly. It wasn't shattered; it was erased from the material realm. The power of the resonating laws tore apart the space and matter of that area, reducing it to nothingness.
Lu Sheng looked at the circular crater left by the explosion, and a slow grin spread across his face.
This power—
If Qingming Protector were to take such a hit, even if he were a mid-stage Spirit Saint, he would be severely injured.
"That's enough."
Lu Sheng did not linger in the Old God Abyss.
He had already achieved the cultivation level of the late-stage Spirit Saint. He could continue consuming, but he had other matters to attend to.
Xuan Yin was still waiting outside.
He stayed in the Abyss of the Old Gods for ten days.
"I wonder if she waited patiently."
Lu Sheng put away the Devouring Heaven Furnace, spread his dragon wings, and flew towards the exit of the spherical space.
