Chapter 345 - Another Breakthrough
At this moment, the headquarter of the Shadowless Council was like a ghost town. Except for Ling Chen, there wasn't a living soul inside.
As for the Primordial Shura Gods, they went inside the mountain range to hunt monsters to increase their strength.
Meanwhile, Ling Chen was sitting in a meditative stance on top of a small mountain in the outskirt of the city.
Looking at the small ball of black flame in his hand that was trying to get out from the small box made of holy power, Ling Chen couldn't help but smile.
Swoosh!
At the same time, a small black hole appeared in his palm before it swallowed the small black flame including the cage made of holy power it was locked in.
The moment Ling Chen absorbed the small black of flame which was a strand of the Shadowless Ruler's Spiritual energy, the ancient and primordial dark tree within his sea of consciousness suddenly vibrated violently.
Boom!
At the same time, an overwhelming spiritual pressure erupted forth from his body as his spiritual energy that was stuck at the peak of the God Transformation Realm suddenly broke through the 3rd Life Transition God-King Realm.
However, it didn't stop there. His spiritual skyrocketed into the peak of the early stage God King realm before it stopped, only one step away from the middle stage.
Meanwhile, Ling Chen couldn't hide the surprised expression on his face. It was only a strand of the Shadowless Ruler's spiritual energy. Yet it was enough for his spiritual energy to break through a big realm. Just how strong was the Shadowless Ruler's spiritual energy.
Also, even after he had absorbed the Shadowless Ruler's strand of spiritual energy, he wasn't able to get any information about the Shadowless Ruler or his cultivation base.
However, he didn't get discouraged. He already knew that was going to happen. He wasn't even able to get much information from people like the bronze masked man as he had many restrictions on his soul, let alone a powerful being Shadowless Ruler.
Even though Ling Chen's spiritual energy broke through the 3rd Life Transition God King realm, his fleshy body was still at the 2nd Life Transition Peak Original God Realm.
If he wanted to increase the strength of his fleshy body, he would have to absorb the blood and life essence of many powerful peak 2nd Life Transition beings.
Nonetheless, despite the fact his fleshy body was at the 2nd Life Transition Peak Original God Realm, his battle strength was that of the 3rd Life Transition being.
After absorbing the Shadowless Ruler's strand of spiritual energy and breaking through the 3rd Life Transition being in term of spiritual energy, Ling Chen didn't get up from his meditative stance. He instead took the opportunity to check out the change within his body.
Even though Ling Chen already had an idea about the changes within his body after breaking through the 2nd Life Transition, he was still shocked after seeing it.
Just like his bones were remolded by the dark tree roots within his dantian after his 1st Life Transition, his internal organs were also remolded by the dark tree roots as well.
They were all pitch black like just like his bones. Whether it was his heart or his lungs etc, they were all the same color as his bones.
Furthermore, they were all filled with boundless life forces and an ancient aura. After his 2nd Life Transition, Ling Chen had the feeling that his regenerative ability has also reached a new peak.
Even if one were to cut his arm, it would instantly be regenerated like brand new without any flaw or defect. With each Life Transition, Ling Chen felt as though he was becoming a monster.
Furthermore, just like his 1st Life Transition, Ling Chen had also unlocked many new abilities after his breakthrough.
That was even more true for his eye powers, two of the small runes within the magic circle in his eyes have been unlocked. One from each eye and each one of them was a different power.
.............
After checking the changes within his body after his breakthrough, Ling Chen still didn't wake up as he entered the Akasha Spiritual World.
Just like always, the moment Ling Chen entered the Akasha Spiritual World, the Goddess Akasha suddenly materialized in front of him.
"Divine Father." Respectfully called out Akasha with a happy expression on her face.
"It seems like you have become stronger again." Answered Ling Chen with a slight smile on his face as he was looking at the changes within the Akasha Spiritual World.
Unlike before, the Akasha Spiritual World has become bigger. At the same time, the number of spiritual bodies or contractors that could enter the Akasha Spiritual World has also increased.
"It's all thanks to the information I got from the people of the Shadowless Council killed by Divine Father as well as the Primordial Shura Gods." Happily answered Akasha.
"I see. Now that we created the Akasha Spiritual World system and taken care of the Shadowless Council and also have all the grand characters of the Omega Galaxy under our control, there's nothing left for us to do in the 8th Ring of the Chaos Universe." Said Ling Chen.
It's already been long decided that they weren't going to spend too much time in the 8th Ring of the Chaos Universe. Their true main stage and also the true beginning of their journey was the 7th Ring of the Chaos Universe.
The only reason they've spent that much time in the 8th Ring of the Chaos Universe was to lay the foundation of the Akasha Spiritual World system and also used the people there as guinea pigs to test it as well.
From the previous experiences, the Akasha Spiritual World was working perfectly. Even though they were controlling all those grand characters and read their memories, none of them realized it.
Furthermore, the contribution points system and those powerful treasures and medicine pills in the Akasha Spiritual World made them unable to stay away from it or even think about quitting.
Aside from that, many advantages in the Akasha Spiritual World also got them hooked. In conclusion, everything was all a big success.
"What are we gonna do with all the galaxies conquered by the Shadowless Council?" Suddenly asked Akasha.
She already had the feeling that they were gonna leave the 8th Ring of the Chaos Universe as soon as they defeated the Shadowless Council, as such, she didn't look surprised.
Listened to Akasha's question, Ling Chen didn't even think about it as he said." We'll send some of the Demonic Shuras and Angelic Shuras to spread the keys of the Akasha Spiritual World in them."
"At the same time, we'll also station some of them in the giant floating island in the 8th Extreme Void Belt to keep a watch on them. Also, I want you to post about the existence of these galaxies in the forum."
"If any of the contractors want to travel and visit any of them with our help, they'll have to pay a fee for it. Furthermore, they'll also have to pay us another 20% of their harvest when they're coming back including the travel fee as well."
"Anyway, let's see how it goes and you can add or modify some of the rules over time. As a matter of fact, you're responsible for this project." Said Ling Chen.
"Don't worry Divine Father, I won't let you down. I already have a plan in place for those galaxies after knowing about their existence." Answered Akasha with a cunning smile on her pretty and angelic little face.
"Also, when are going to leave?" Suddenly asked Akasha.
"Once the Primordial Shura Gods are done with their training and break through the 2nd Life Transition, we'll set out for the 7th Ring of the Chaos Universe." Answered Ling Chen with an anticipating look on his face.
