Chapter 790: Degradation_3
Gu Jinlai spoke in a low voice.
As for now, continue converting Qingguang into combat power to enhance oneself.
With this in mind, the remaining eighteen hundred strands of Qingguang were directly invested into Eternal Silence and Lightless.
Accompanied by the Formless Pearl neutralizing and confusing the Devouring Dao fluctuations emanating from his body, the matching degree of this Dao also rapidly soared.
Once the Qingguang was depleted, the compatibility had already risen from the previous seventy-three percent to eighty-four percent.
"At this rate, wanting to elevate the Devouring Dao to the level of the Space Avenue and Destruction Dao might really take twenty thousand Qingguang."
Gu Jinlai said, glancing at his lifebound Immortal Skill, Destruction Mixed Hole Sword Qi.
The reason he poured Qingguang into the Devouring Dao was to increase the strength of his lifebound Immortal Skill.
Lifebound Immortal Skills differ from other Immortal Techniques; as long as the Great Dao compatibility increases, its power will enhance accordingly, needing no time for comprehension.
And once the Immortal Skill's power is elevated, combat power naturally becomes stronger as well.
However, spending twenty thousand Qingguang just to enhance the Devouring Dao...
Gu Jinlai turned his gaze toward Particle Sword Intent.
"Particle Sword Intent, based on the Space Avenue, Destruction Dao, and Devouring Dao, utilizes powerful Divine Sense Ability to transform into Sword Intent, for single kills; the stronger the Divine Sense Ability, the greater the power..."
His Divine Sense Ability had already reached the Eleventh Rank.
His next target was to elevate his Divine Sense Ability to the Twelfth Rank.
If he really had Twelfth Rank Divine Sense Ability, complemented by Void Flow, Silence Returns to Destruction, and Lonely Night, the three Immortal Immortal Instruments, even a newly advanced Immortal Golden Immortal might not withstand his Sword Blade.
Even against those Immortal Golden Immortals with Cultivation Hundred Epochs, he could fight a couple.
With Profound Gold Armor and Silent Flow Light, even if he couldn't win, he could at least ensure he retreats safely.
"Even twenty thousand strands of Qingguang is no small number. If it's merely for improving combat power, the cost-effectiveness isn't as good as Particle Sword Intent."
Gu Jinlai made a decision then and there.
Enhance Particle Sword Intent.
A few thousand strands of Qingguang should be enough to elevate this Immortal Technique to Mahayana.
...
"Changqing, we've arrived, Changyuan Realm."
Gu Jinlai quietly felt the Void Projection Technique optimized with three hundred strands of Qingguang, when Qin Yiren's message arrived from outside.
"Just in time, it's perfect to test the Demigod of Changyuan Realm."
Gu Jinlai immediately stepped out of the Cultivation Room.
Outside, Qin Yiren was already waiting, holding some information related to Changyuan Realm: "The demigods active in Changyuan Realm should be stronger than those of Primordial Light Realm. Their actions have almost become blatant, the Changyuan Boundary Lord has reported to the Domain Master three times, and even the Vice Corps Commander of the Yanhuang Army, Cang Qing, has descended upon Changyuan Realm to try to locate him."
She paused: "However, this demigod is very cunning; as soon as he senses an Immortal presence, he immediately halts all activities. Cang Qing has searched for a hundred years, yet he's never seen any trace of him, and an Immortal Golden Immortal cannot always stay in the relatively unimportant Changyuan Realm, so had to retreat. As soon as Vice Corps Commander Cang Qing left, he appeared right away."
"Leave it to me."
Gu Jinlai spoke: "Only a demigod with some skill can serve as effective training, the previous demigod... was too weak, I hadn't even warmed up, hopefully, this demigod won't disappoint me."
Qin Yiren nodded slightly: "Be careful."
Gu Jinlai waved his hand.
Similarly, he didn't alert the Changyuan Boundary Lord, he located a city in the same manner.
Just as the Changyuan Boundary Lord had said, this demigod was quite brazen, openly preaching on the city's streets.
Besides, many oblivious citizens were being manipulated, marching under the guise of spiritual freedom, fairness, and justice, encircling and demonstrating at the various branches of the garrison to force them into releasing captured church personnel.
In more severe cases, the city's operations were affected.
"During times of peace and tolerance, believers and fans alike have no rationality, especially in this world where believers themselves are influenced by extraordinary powers, their thinking, and ideology have completely transformed..."
Gu Jinlai's eyes swept across, following the Perception of the Qi, he quickly focused his gaze on a Level 6 Mechanic, then mirrored this with the Void Projection Technique.
The next moment, with the Formless Pearl adorned, he teleported.
Appearing directly at the castle built by the richest man in Changyuan Realm's Far Wind City.
With a virtual hand press, the Zhi Chi Sword formed visibly, spanning the void, shooting at Changyuan Realm's wealthiest man—the Demigod Xu Yue.
But just as Qin Yiren had said, this demigod was noticeably stronger than Demigod Qiong Miao from earlier.
When Gu Jinlai drew upon the Space Avenue to condense the Zhi Chi Sword, this demigod already sensed it. As the sword light penetrated the void, instantly collapsing the space within tens of meters centered on him, this demigod leapt to evade.
"Golden Immortal!? Supreme Golden Immortal!?"
The Demigod Xu Yue's eyes showed some astonishment.
But when he realized the presence was just a single Golden Immortal, and not an Immortal ambush, his eyes immediately flashed with a fierce light: "Seeking your own death!"
The next moment, a Divine Will so powerful that even a Ninth Rank Divine Sense and possessing protective Immortal Immortal Instruments couldn't withstand, like a resounding bell and drum, fiercely pummeled into Gu Jinlai's spiritual world.
That intense rumble seemed to enact an unprecedented stellar explosion within Gu Jinlai's spiritual world, blossoming into...
a spectacle like ten thousand-level grand fireworks in brilliance and splendor.
And the shockwave from the explosion was like a gentle breeze blowing in the summer; although it created a ripple, it didn't leave one feeling overheated and frenzied, instead, it exuded a sense of refreshing coolness.
