"Your path to godhood is truly terrifying..."
In the undead demiplane, Alex stared at the blood cocoon that Xu Tianxi had transformed into and sighed.
It has been five days since Xu Tianxi entered this state; although his body and spiritual sea have been reshaped with the persistence of his own will and the help of the six souls, he is motionless, like a sculpture, with no sign of breaking out of the cocoon.
Of course, they had escaped the most dangerous situation at the moment, but Alex was unsure whether his crazy disciple would do something more cruel, thinking that his death was not complete enough and commit suicide again.
In particular, before taking this step, this kid asked me about the process of his transformation from the Son of Light to the Holy God of the Dead. His words seemed to imply, "I'm tired of living. I want to die once and practice in a different form."
Too crazy, too desperate, there is no fear of death in his eyes, only the desire for powerful strength.
This was also because Ilex didn't know that Xu Tianxi had died once before, and he trusted Ilex's guarantee very much, and didn't want to be an ordinary first-level god or even an ordinary god king, so he tried his best to take an unconventional approach.
On the surface of the blood cocoon, nine energy vortexes rose into the air, greedily devouring the blood and soul power that had been transformed from the fallen sea soul beasts.
These foundations were originally prepared by Xu Tianxi for the construction of the Spirit Ascension Platform, but now that he has a better abyss plane and even a true god as a backup, he no longer cares.
Also absorbed was a portion of the energy released after the fall of Tang Hao, Niu Tian, and Titan. The remains of the two divine beasts were shattered by Alex, turning into a torrent of blood and energy, which was injected into the blood cocoon.
In the demiplane, the blood-colored vortex swallowed up massive amounts of energy, churning like the tide of a lake, and rumbling like thunder. This state of cultivation that Xu Tianxi was accustomed to was enough to scare away the Super Douluo. If they got close to him, they would be in danger of exploding, and the huge suction force would tear everything apart.
Suddenly, the communication soul guide that connected Alex with the outside world responded. He knew that those few people came to visit Xu Tianxi, so he opened the door to the half plane and welcomed them in.
The light and shadow changed, and Meng Hongchen came in military uniform. The three-word battle armor released a harmonious halo under his feet. The fluctuation of his soul power was strong to an extremely powerful level. His silver hair was scattered over his shoulders, and his pair of crystal eyes were full of worry.
"Has his retreat not ended yet? News has come from the front lines that a strange and powerful being has appeared from the Abyss Plane. They have begun to shift the battlefield and launch raids on cities other than Lingdou City."
Meng Hongchen described the battle situation and said to Alex in a serious tone, "The reserve forces left behind in Mingdu have to be dispatched. The powerful soul beasts from the soul beast gathering places such as Xingdou Great Forest, Demon Forest, Far North Land, and Mingdou Great Forest must also go to fight. The entire continent is sending reinforcements."
"With Tianxi away, I must take the soul-transforming masters to the battlefield and try to transform the soul beasts into spirits before they die, so as to save their lives."
Upon hearing this, Ilex smiled with relief, nodded slightly, and encouraged, "Don't worry, I'll take care of him here, nothing will happen to him."
"It's a pity that I can't split myself into two at the moment, otherwise I would rarely be interested in this kind of thing, hehe..."
Meng Hongchen nodded, bowed to Electrolux, and said respectfully:
"Tianxi told me that the souls and the army of the undead are actually the treasures you brought into the world. You have brought us so much help. On behalf of Tianxi, our Hongchen family, and the Sun-Moon Empire, I would like to thank you for your great help."
"This battle may be full of dangers and hardships. If you return safely, I will come to see you again."
"Someone is thinking about you, so it won't be easy for you to get into trouble."
Upon hearing this, Alex shook his head and raised his hand. An ice crystal ring that seemed to be carved from top-grade cold jade appeared in mid-air. It was engraved with gorgeous stripes like the golden crow's fire feathers, and it was like liquid fire slowly flowing, floating lightly in front of Meng Hongchen.
"This is the protective item Tianxi asked me to give you before he went into seclusion. He used the last remaining Ice Divine Crystal as the outer shell material to create a tenth-level soul guide. It contains ice and fire energy and a barrier poison. It is a perfect match for your attributes."
"Of course, the core is the spatial attribute. This item is good for both offense and defense. Once you get used to it, you can try to fuse it with your martial soul. Combined with the three-character battle armor, you can protect yourself and even fight against a limit Douluo."
Meng Hongchen was stunned for a moment, then stretched out her slender jade finger, and the ice crystal diamond ring floated over and was put on automatically as if by a spirit, landing on the tip of her right index finger.
"So it's a perfect match? Did he already think about it? Why didn't he tell me? Seriously..."
Meng Hongchen felt warm in his heart, his tense cheeks immediately relaxed, and the corners of his mouth turned up, revealing a fresh and lovely smile.
Her long eyelashes blinked, and every time they flickered, it was as if she saw Xu Tianxi breaking through the barriers, coming to her, and smiling gently.
Alex smiled faintly, turned his palm over again, and turned into a huge gilded cannon, which fell to the ground with a bang. The cannon fire was cold and fierce, and Meng Hongchen suddenly felt a faint sense of crisis.
On the giant cannon, a heart-protecting mirror is particularly eye-catching. The ingenious soul-guided light pattern projects a compelling beam of light, giving a strong sense of security.
"This is a set of ninth-level peak soul guides he prepared for your brother. The cannon is a Heaven-shattering Cannon that he personally modified. After a single charge, it can unleash a firepower comparable to a full-strength attack from a Limit Douluo. However, it can only be used a maximum of five times a day."
"The Heart Mirror is a trigger-type extreme defense soul guide. Tianxi used the essence of the Silver Ying Beast in this soul guide and engraved his Black Tortoise summoning soul skill. In the event of a life-or-death crisis, it can instantly teleport dozens of miles away. At the same time, it releases a spatial protective shield that can neutralize the ultimate attack."
"One for attack and one for defense, please take them along as well."
"Heh, I knew they had the best relationship. I always remember it."
Meng Hongchen raised the corner of his mouth slightly and smiled faintly, "Senior, I'm not saying anything bad about Tianxi, but that guy Xiao has always been thick-skinned and thick-skinned. It's a waste to prepare such a good thing for him."
The corner of Alex's mouth twitched: "He is your brother, right?"
"Yeah, what's the point of insulting my brother if he doesn't have one? I believe he's used to it by now."
Meng Hongchen smiled and put away two of Xu Tianxi's masterpieces, turned around and floated away.
"Senior, remember to tell Tianxi for me that you can't just give a girl a ring. If he gives it to me, I'll just assume he's not playing dumb. I'll ask him for an explanation when I get back..."
Hearing this, Alex was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He shook his head and then sighed.
The world of young people is so new that even the old man can hardly understand it.
Soon, new guests arrived.
Ye Guyi spread all eight wings and came with two swords on his back. There was a heroic look between his brows, like a Valkyrie.
However, when she discovered that someone was still hiding in the blood cocoon, she immediately looked regretful and lost interest in showing off.
I thought you were successful in your retreat, but you're even slower than me. This teacher is really unreliable, Ye Guyi thought quietly.
"I'm glad you're here. Tianxi also has something for me to give to you."
Ilex had anticipated Ye Guyi's arrival. With a wave of his sleeves, a ball of light like the blazing sun appeared out of thin air in the sky of the demiplane. The flames turned into the shape of a dragon, which floated down and revealed its true appearance. It was a flawless spinal soul bone, or torso bone.
Ye Guyi's beautiful eyes widened immediately, her pupils filled with the reflection of this top-grade soul bone. She immediately showed respect, bowed, and said word by word:
"Grand Master, please tell my teacher that I, his disciple, have not disappointed him and will soon surpass him and reach the god level."
The first time she saw this soul bone, she felt a sense of familiarity. The dragon pill she had absorbed and the second soul she had fused with it were of the same origin as this soul bone, making it a perfect match.
"Well, I'll take your words to you. Your teacher also has something to tell you."
Electrolux looked worried, slowed down his tone, and warned:
"Your teacher said that this attack from the Abyssal Plane might just be a exploratory offensive. If the strongest being is only a lord of the second or third layer of the Abyss, then you don't need to display your full strength. You can just appear as a Limit Douluo."
"Wait until he comes out of seclusion, and then counterattack the Abyss Plane in one fell swoop."
"However, if the Lord of the Abyss descends upon a puppet to join the battle, then we must be extremely cautious. If we don't attack, then it's fine. But if we do, we must destroy its flesh and shell, leaving no one alive."
"The divine light of the Angel Martial Spirit is the greatest nemesis of these abyssal creatures. Go all out and restore the glory of the Angel Family today."
"Yes, disciple, I will remember your teachings."
Ye Guyi responded with a quick and decisive bow, then sat down cross-legged to fuse the last soul bone.
Behind her, the Holy Sword of Angels trembled slightly. Qian Renxue stared at the blood cocoon with surprise in her heart.
"This kind of transformation is too dangerous. He's truly someone who doesn't take his life seriously... and this person has too much faith. How could his Qi and Blood be so vast?"
Qian Renxue pondered the situation and discovered many remarkable things. Xu Tianxi's energy and blood were much more terrifying than her own at her peak ten thousand years ago. Every inch of his flesh and blood seemed to harbor an angry dragon, powerful and overbearing, and even without moving, he exuded tremendous pressure.
Even if such a person did not have a god status, I would not have been able to suppress him ten thousand years ago... Not only myself, but also my mother and Tang San in the state of Sea God could not suppress him. I am afraid that only Tang San in the state of Shura God can defeat this person.
Qian Renxue was horrified and had a deeper understanding of the horror of this era.
"Fortunately, it's one of our own this time. Maybe I can still help him a little..." Qian Renxue secretly rejoiced, then activated the Holy Sword of Angels, which emitted wisps of light mist and sank into the sea of blood.
The God of Angels consolidates the divine position through faith. The predecessor of the Spirit Hall was the church. In terms of guiding faith alone, Qian Renxue can be called a great expert.
Suddenly, a strange power was triggered in Xu Tianxi's body, shining brightly like a firefly, shining all over his body.
Suddenly, the light of life emerged from Xu Tianxi's almost dead spiritual sea, dissipated, and filled a part of the spiritual sea.
After a while, Ye Guyi merged his soul bones, bid farewell to Alex, and found an open place to open the Vulcan Space.
This time, everything around was no longer a rustling fire mulberry forest, but a towering temple. The God of Fire demonstrated the majesty of a generation of main gods, warned Ye Guyi of the key points of the last level, and then used his divine power to start the ninth test.
"Dang~"
In the demiplane, Xu Tianxi's fingers moved suddenly, very abruptly, like thunder, stirring up huge waves.
"The power of faith took effect prematurely...has it accelerated my recovery...It seems someone is helping me..."
Consciousness slowly returned, and Xu Tianxi had an epiphany. Looking inward, he felt that his body had been largely reshaped, and his heart beat steadily and powerfully, like an ancient bell.
But at this moment, he was unable to move, and his transformation had to continue.
In the three dantians, the spiritual soul core is as deep as a golden black hole, swallowing everything, and the light of faith appears brightly.
In the dantian in the chest, a stable blood-red core has solidified and taken shape. It is like a newborn ferocious beast, greedily devouring everything and also stimulating the potential of the body.
The lower Dantian was in chaos, with ruins of elements everywhere. A closer look revealed a bleak scene, as if a huge star had collapsed, all life had been extinguished, and there were waves of destruction everywhere, chaos and chaos.
But now, Xu Tianxi has already felt that his body is full of vitality, which has been suppressed for a long time, accumulating energy, waiting for the moment of explosion.
"I still need to transform and return to my unconsciousness. Only by pushing myself to the point of having nothing, losing everything, can my last potential be stimulated..."
Xu Tianxi sealed his mind and allowed his body to undergo the final transformation in the most ethereal state, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.
Seven days later, the endless light of faith turned into nourishment for the first soul core, the sea of spirit regained its vitality, and all the souls cheered.
Three days later, Xu Tianxi's eyes slowly opened, emitting a cold and mysterious light that penetrated the void. The blood sea soul mist from the outside world disappeared and was completely absorbed.
My body feels better than ever before, as if there is a force like a mountain torrent brewing, like a volcano about to erupt and can no longer be suppressed.
The Qi, blood, and soul core in the chest has turned into a blood-red black hole. It seems that something very terrifying is hidden in its depths, and the lower Dantian is in chaos.
"It's time to awaken and break through the barriers, and reshape the second and third soul cores."
At this moment, Xu Tianxi regained consciousness and sent his thoughts to the blood cocoon. A large, invisible hand stretched out from the void, emitting a surge of force that was transmitted through the blood cocoon.
"Bang", "Bang", "Bang"...
The sound of a giant dragon stepping on the sea continued to echo, and a scene that dazzled Alex was happening before his eyes.
The blood cocoon collapsed, and a figure like a peerless god of war broke out from the sky. Gusts of blood and energy like the roar of a giant dragon surged out, like a raging sea, sweeping across the sky and the earth!
Blood and energy roared into the sky, and the demiplane space trembled violently. Alex took several steps back and showed a surprised bitter smile.
"I'm old, I'm really old. This little bit of consciousness that hasn't fully recovered is about to be surpassed by the younger generation..."
