Episode 18: The Elder Gods Chapter 2: Staying in the Shadows
In the depths of the elemental ocean, dark currents raged. The power of the Lord God gathered into the earth’s endless currents rolling and flowing.
“Seen. But can’t get it.” Linley couldn’t help but feel a little itchy.
So much Lord God power! However, this elemental ocean could be sensed by every God who had become a God. Among the Elder Gods, those with stronger souls. They were generally able to discover that area of Lord God’s power. “The souls of the Lord Gods. It’s much stronger than our Elder God souls.”
Linley was then relieved.
It was useless to think anymore when you got the ground.
“I also wonder, underneath this region of Lord God’s power. Whether or not there are even more powerful energy regions.” Such a thought popped into Linley’s mind, but a moment later Linley shook his head and stopped thinking about it. “You don’t even have the power of the Lord God, and you still want something else? But it’s strange to say, this divine power, it’s divided into lower divine power, middle divine power, and upper divine power. Yet I haven’t heard anyone else mention the Lord God’s power. There are levels.”
Linley had been in the clan for so many years. He also knew that ……
The seven elemental lineages and the four rule lineages. There were seven Lord Gods in one lineage. One of them was an upper Lord God, two middle Lord Gods, and four lower Lord Gods, so it was clear that there were separate ranks for this Lord God.
“But this Lord God power, how come I haven’t heard of any differences?” Linley was extremely puzzled.
The Four Divine Beast Families and the Eight Great Families all had the power of a Lord God. And Linley didn’t have the feeling that which family’s main god power was more advanced. It seemed to be the same.
“Could it be that between not different levels of Lord God, the Lord God’s power is the same? But. Why is it still divided into upper, middle, and lower?” Linley couldn’t figure it out, so he stopped thinking about it, after all, there were only seven Lord Gods in the …… lineage.
Any one of the main gods. All of them were high above the rest, even the most powerful earthly gods. In front of the Lord God, they were all extremely weak.
Lin Lei then carefully observed the Soul Defense Master God artifact, only to see the Dao Dao soul force flowed in it, and a small film appeared on the gap, with the soul force often pouring in, this patch up the gap in the diaphragm. Is slowly metamorphosing.
“Sure enough …… reaching the upper gods. Only then can one truly begin to repair a Soul Defense Master God artifact.” Linley marveled.
This repair speed could be far too much faster than when he was a Mediate God.
This was like a dam breaking. Floods washed over it, and at this time, if one threw small stones down, even if there were a large number of them and an endless stream of them. It would also be easily washed away by the flood. But if, throw a large number of boulders down.
The stones become ten times larger in size. The effect is immediately much better.
Restoration is also a principle. Median soul power. The gap between it and the Soul Defense Master God Artifact is too great. Repairing it was too difficult Ever since the Lord God had descended and the matter of the Four Divine Beasts Family and the Eight Great Families had come to an end, the lives of the clansmen of the Four Divine Beasts Family had returned to peace, and Linley and his family and Bebe’s family were also living a quiet life in the Grand Canyon.
Linley kept consuming amethyst crystals. Powerful souls.
By the end of the day, Linley had consumed all the amethysts he was carrying. Still, he asked Bebe for many amethyst crystals. In order to continue refining and absorbing, Beibei even said with bravado, “Boss, you can refine as much as you want, I’ll provide as much as I want.
Back then, he Beibei was in the amethyst mountain range. Spend a whole decade, collected astronomical numbers of amethyst.
In the blink of an eye, a hundred years have passed.
In the Grand Canyon, a long dining table was set up outside Linley’s residence. Linley’s family of three, Bebe’s family of three were all gathered together, and the four of them, Delia, Ness, Chengdi, and Ina, were constantly serving dishes. Linley and Bebe, on the other hand, were sitting peacefully.
“Boss, your soul. Can you continue to absorb it now?” Bebe inquired, “You’ve absorbed so many amethyst crystals.”
Having reached the Upper God realm. Linley this refining amethyst speed is also ten times faster, as the soul is elevated, the faster the speed of refining, a hundred years, the ground did refine a staggering amount of amethyst. However, it is clear that the souls of the …… Elder Gods. This bearing capacity also similarly improve a lot.
“How. Jealous?” Linley teased. “Bebe, I can remember when you and I were competing to see who would reach the Upper Divine Ground first, right?”
Bebe rubbed his nose and could only smile helplessly.
That time when he went to Mil City, Beibei from his grandmother. After getting that soul stripping fragment and fusing it. Bebe was only one step away. It would be able to reach Upper God. But Bebe’s speed was obviously much slower than Linley’s Linley had an epiphany, but he hadn’t.
“Boss you’re awesome, alright.” Bebe said helplessly with a bitter face. “However, my grandfather said that when I reach the Upper God realm, my strength. It’ll be close to grandpa. Boss, you’re powerful now. When I reach the Upper Divine Realm. I might even be stronger than you.”
“It’s only good if you’re stronger than me.” Linley smiled.
Linley was also very clear about Bebe’s talent, this innate divine ability – ‘God Devouring’ – could be called unrivaled at the same level, and when Bebe reached the Upper God realm. How many people would be able to resist when he cast ‘God Devouring’ again?
Perhaps. That Great Perfection Superior God could resist it.
And… Beibei’s God Devouring Mouse, that body is so strong that it’s scary. Seeing that Beirut dared to pick up the main divine artifact with his empty hand, he knows the amazingness of this ‘God Devouring Mouse’ after reaching the Upper God, and Beibei Xuan Ao is not fused …… reliably with talent at all. Reaching the Upper Divinity. It would then be able to catch up to Linley.
But Linley wasn’t the slightest bit jealous.
Countless years have come and gone. Linley and Bebe were like that of blood brothers, the stronger the other party was the better it was.
“I also want to break through and have an epiphany. But why is it so hard.” Bebe let out a long sigh.
At this time, Cheng Di, who was carrying dishes, came over and heard this. He couldn’t help but say, “Uncle Bei Bei. I also want to break through. When I first became a God, I still relied on the Earth Ancestral Baptism. I want to reach the Median God myself. It’s all hard.”
“Hmph.”
A low hum of discontent. Ina also walked out with her dishes, “Brother Chengdi, don’t feel sorry for yourself in the future okay, I haven’t become a god until now …….” At that moment Linley and Bebe couldn’t help but laugh.
“Father. Uncle.” Ina couldn’t help but glare, but Linley and Bebe laughed even more.
“Haha, what’s laughing so happily.” A loud, refreshing laugh rang out, and two figures descended from high above with a brush. Linley looked up. It was none other than Beirut, who was clad in black robes, as well as Calerona, who was clad in red robes.
As soon as Beirut appeared, Linley’s eyes
Because of the sight of Beirut. Linley thought of his own godly weapon, which had been here for a hundred years. Beirut hadn’t come over once. Had he come over this time …… because the Godhead Armament had been successfully refined?
“Grandpa.” Bebe was happy.
Beirut, however, smiled and turned his head to look at Ina, “Nana, quickly come over.” Beirut and Calerona both doted on Ina, and Ina even greeted her. She kissed Beirut and Calerona.
“Grandpa. You came this time, could it be that the God’s Grimoire Armament is ready?” Bebe was the one who opened the door.
As soon as Beirut heard that, he turned his head to look at Linley. Haha, he laughed, “Linley. For this divine lattice weapon of yours. I’ve spent a whole hundred years on it. Finally, I’ve succeeded, carry on!” With that, Beirut waved one hand –
Immediately, an illusory black phantom crossed the sky.
Linley even reached out with one hand. It directly grabbed the sword. However, the black shadow of the sword was too blurry, and Beirut had thrown it too quickly. He was deliberately trying to make a fool out of Linley. Linley grabbed the blade of the sword, “So sharp.” Linley felt a pain in his hand. A trace of blood emerged from his palm.
Looking down –
The body of the sword was long and slender, as thin as a cicada’s wing, and this longsword was surprisingly as transparent as if it were transparent. Staring carefully at the sword body, one could observe that there was a black color flowing inside the sword body, which was bizarre. The general divine sword is the surface halo flow. But this sharp sword is the internal black flow, let a person jaw-dropping.
In particular, the level of sharpness was even more chilling.
Even though Linley hadn’t transformed, he was still an upper god. The strength of his body was considered high, and this sword had yet to be refined. Just the sharpness of the body ground alone allowed Linley to break the palm of an Upper Deity.
“This sword ……” Linley was incredulous.
“Sharp enough, right?” Beirut laughed.
Linley even nodded, “It is indeed sharp enough, I’ve never seen such a sharp weapon before.”
“Grandpa, how did you refine it, how come my dagger, isn’t this sharp?” Bebe even said.
Beirut smiled and said, “Actually, why was it refined like this. I’m a little confused myself.” When these words came out, causing Linley, Delia, Bebe and the others to be puzzled, Beirut continued, “I know that you, Linley, have comprehended the four elemental laws of earth, water, and fire, so …… when I was refining this sword for you, I purposely just devoured and refined the four upper divine compartments of earth, water, and fire. ”
Linley couldn’t help but be moved in his heart.
In fact, divine lattice weapons. If you casually get some god frames and refine them, you can produce a god frame weapon. One could then produce a divine lattice weapon. But Beirut had been so careful to specialize in those four types of divine lattices for the sake of Linley.
“I refined them very carefully, but I refined them to a late stage.” Beirut laughed, “This sword has actually become one. Originally, there was a difference between the four types of divine essence. It is surprising that they have fused so perfectly. The power of this divine lattice weapon. It is also the power of this Divine Grimoire. I’ve refined the best of all the Godhead Armaments. The best one.”
Linley couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement in his heart.
“Lord Beirut, thank you.” Linley said gratefully. Beirut had gone to great lengths to make this weapon for himself. The ground had indeed expended effort.
“Bebe. That dagger of yours, I only refined and manufactured it with the Darkness Godhead. After all, you’re only a Darkness Becoming God as well.” Beirut smiled faintly, “As for Linley this sword …… is so powerful. The deeper reasons I don’t understand Sometimes …… making a perfect work. The reason is not always understood.
A good piece of work. It also requires opportunity.
Linley carefully stroked the sword. The blood that had cut through his palm had already been incorporated into the sword. The sword had never had an owner. It easily accepted Linley completely, becoming Linley’s sword.
“Strange. Strange.” It was only after Linley had taken full control of this divine lattice weapon that he realized.
With a single movement of his mind, the black color flowing within the sword body could actually be hidden. The entire sword body became transparent. At first glance, it seemed as though there was no sword in Linley’s hand.
“Linley. Make a name.” Beirut laughed.
Linley scrutinized the divine weapon: “This sword uses the ground fast up. Even of an expert. One can only vaguely sense a shadow …… Then let’s call it ‘Staying Shadow’.” Linley’s third weapon –
‘Staying Shadow’ came out!
After Linley obtained this divine sword, ‘Staying Shadow’, he naturally used it often, and the more he used it. The more Linley used it, the more he liked it, and this divine sword was especially imbued with the power of the Upper Sovereign God, in conjunction with the strong power of the dragonized body.
The completion of a sword, Linley was also amazed by it.
When Linley had first used his fists to perform the ‘Circular Air Split’, it had been enough to cause space to shake out a hole. But …… now it was cast through the tougher and sharper divine sword ‘Staying Shadow’. With a single strike of the sword.
Space will tremble. And where the sword shadow passes, it directly leaves a crack.
The Grand Canyon. On the grass outside Linley’s house. Linley was holding the shadow-retaining sword. Dancing casually. The entire person had transformed into a gust of wind, as if blending into the wind, and the sword shadow, which could only be seen as an illusion, was also as ethereal as the wind.
“Puff!”
“Swoosh!”
The sword shadow passed by. Space occasionally cracked open, and it was important to know. This was still a situation where Linley had not been dragonized, of course, this was also the reason why Linley had reached the upper gods and had a godly weapon, but also based on this, one could imagine that Linley’s material attacks nowadays were terrifying.
“Good. Big Uncle is so powerful.” Ina, on the other hand, was standing far away. Eyes glowing as she stared at Linley’s sword test.
It was at this moment-
“Buzz~”
A fluctuation of heaven and earth laws descended steeply. Even Linley, who was in the middle of his sword test, couldn’t help but stop and turn his head towards the location where the fluctuations in the laws of the heavens and earth descended, “Eh? It’s Bebe’s residence? Could it be that Bebe has broken through?”
In Linley’s mind, he still remembered the words that Bebe had said, “When I reach Upper Deity, I’ll probably be stronger than you.”
