Chapter 6171: Absorbing
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At present, an Eighth Tribulation Universe Master entering to absorb divine power, how much could they absorb?
Jian Wushuang himself did not know.
He only knew that his divine body had not yet reached a saturated state.
He stepped into the blue entrance.
After walking for a quarter of an hour, he finally saw what lay ahead.
On the other side of the entrance was a blue ocean.
The vast ocean stretched beyond sight.
“Heavens!” Jian Wushuang couldn’t help but exclaim.
Such a large Starry Sky ocean.
How strong must this Universe God have been before falling?
The accumulation of such a vast Starry Sky force, how many years would it take?
After observing for a moment, he no longer hesitated and sat down cross-legged to begin absorbing divine power.
After removing the Tribulation Armor.
His two million base divine power seemed extremely insignificant in this Starry Sky ocean.
“Whew!”
His breath was even.
The absorption began.
This absorption was much like cultivation.
Extremely slow.
At the start, he could absorb tens of thousands a day.
After a month, the daily absorption of divine power was less than a thousand.
The further he progressed, the harder it became.
In the blink of an eye, 100,000 eras passed.
His base divine power reached 3 million.
It still had not reached a saturated state.
Increasing 1 million divine power took 100,000 eras.
Yet it was still countless times faster than the outside world.
It was just different from the divine power he had increased when he was weaker.
At that time, doubling in a day was possible.
Day by day passed.
Wu Zuo and others had already come out.
Their divine power had significantly increased.
Since the last time, they had grown stronger by an unknown amount.
Now they could absorb even more.
Moreover, this time might be the last time they could enter this place.
After all, obtaining the token was not easy.
And there were restrictions.
So they decided to cultivate here for some time, and after finishing their cultivation, they would absorb divine power again.
Thus, they repeated this process over and over.
Unknown eras passed outside, and Jian Wushuang emerged from seclusion.
His base divine power had reached complete saturation.
35 million.
Including the undifferentiated increase from the Tribulation Armor, it totaled 40 million divine power.
This changed his view of the Tribulation Armor considerably.
He used to think that an increase of several million was nothing.
But such an undifferentiated increase still surprised him.
Buzz!
He lightly clenched his fist. At this moment, Jian Wushuang, though not claiming to be invincible among demigods, had few true opponents.
By using the Super Eternal Ancient Transformation, his divine power could easily reach 80 million.
His Starry Sky Dao Arena could still amplify it.
However, the amplified divine power was much weaker.
After all, his Origin Source was only at the Eighth Tribulation level, yet it had to amplify an 80 million divine body.
For ordinary cultivators, not to mention amplifying such vast divine power, even supporting it would be impossible.
“Hu Qing!”
Leaving the cave, he found Hu Qing cultivating in the dojo below.
The opponent’s base divine power was even higher, having reached 60 million.
Basic divine power reached 60 million, and Hu Qing had completely reached the peak of a demigod.
“Wushuang!”
Jian Wushuang sat cross-legged and learned from Hu Qing that Wu Li and others were also improving quickly.
Their basic divine power had reached about 50 million.
Even Wu Li had caught up.
“By the way, you probably haven’t claimed your reward yet!” Hu Qing reminded, and Jian Wushuang remembered that the more divine power absorbed, the richer the rewards.
“I almost forgot about this rule!” Jian Wushuang smiled faintly.
He followed the direction Hu Qing pointed out.
Outside a large hall within the arena.
There were several cultivators collecting their rewards.
The rewards were distributed by those statues.
Absorbing the divine power of this Universe God could earn one treasures as rewards.
Jian Wushuang admired the magnanimity of the Universe God.
Even after their fall, they still took care of the younger generation.
He didn’t know who this fallen Universe God was; otherwise, he would have noted the cause and effect.
Inside the large hall.
The statue glanced at Jian Wushuang and said, “You’ve increased your divine power by 15 million, the reward…”
Before finishing the sentence, the statue’s eyelid twitched, and it looked at Jian Wushuang again in surprise. “You absorbed the power of the Starry Sky?”
“Yes,” Jian Wushuang nodded.
Seeing the statue’s expression, he realized that things might not be so simple.
It seemed as if it had seen a monster.
Absorbing fifteen million divine power wasn’t something extraordinary.
But absorbing the power of the Starry Sky was different.
If he mentioned that he absorbed fifteen million of the Starry Sky power, everyone would be shocked.
Because the most Starry Sky power absorbed by any cultivator here was just 6 million.
Jian Wushuang had absorbed more than double that amount.
He had indeed surpassed the previous cultivator by far.
The one who mastered the Starry Sky power only absorbed 6 million divine power and received a legacy from the Universe God.
Jian Wushuang absorbed 15 million!
The statue was incredulous and communicated with other statues, beginning to discuss Jian Wushuang.
This left Jian Wushuang at a loss.
The statues were intensely discussing among themselves.
“15 million of Starry Sky power; according to our master’s arrangement, we can vote to decide if he becomes the heir!”
The statues did not avoid Jian Wushuang in their discussion.
So, Jian Wushuang heard everything clearly.
Heir?
He might become the heir here?
Jian Wushuang felt immense joy.
If that sea of Starry Sky power became his, it would suffice for him through the Ninth Tribulation and even as a Universe God.
But everything depended on the statues’ decision.
“Let’s vote!”
They quickly decided to vote.
Because the heir not only needed strength but also had to be judged on character and potential.
The six statues began voting.
“I oppose!”
“I oppose!”
“I oppose!”
…
“I approve!”
Six statues, three approved, three opposed.
The pressure was now on Jian Wushuang.
“Young one, to become the heir here, you need to undergo a test of will!”
The statue looked at Jian Wushuang with expectation.
It approved of Jian Wushuang becoming the heir.
Now with a 3-to-3 split, Jian Wushuang qualified to face the challenge.
Naturally, Jian Wushuang had no objection and said respectfully, “I am willing!”
Receiving a free inheritance was not to be missed.
After exchanging glances, the statues said, “Very well, place your hand on this crystal immediately!”
The statue threw a crystal towards Jian Wushuang.
Without hesitation, Jian Wushuang walked up to the crystal and placed his hand on it.
Buzz!
As soon as he touched the crystal ball, he saw an incredibly desolate world.
An endless world.
Black mist gathered in the sky.
Countless demons were born.
He was alone.
Behind him was an exit.
Staying felt like certain death.
Because the black mist in the sky pressed down as if covering the whole world.
Universe God-level demons appeared endlessly.
Jian Wushuang, however, firmly held his Dao Heart, knowing that it was all an illusion.
