Chapter 1504: First Star Transformation

Black qi suddenly exploded out of the sky, and a figure slowly surfaced from within it. It was Long Chen.

The vice palace master was correct. Long Chen had only gone through half of the transportation before leaving. That required enough power to withstand the spatial tearing, and even Soul Transformation experts would require an Ancestral item to protect them in order to do so.

However, this was simple for Long Chen. Even without Evilmoon, Long Chen could use his brute strength to do the same thing.

He looked around. He was in a desolate mountain range. Thus, he took out a map Zheng Wenlong had given him. It was a jade tablet, and there was a small speck of light with his general location.

“That’s about where I thought I’d end up. I’m far away enough. Time to digest my gains.”

Long Chen found a secluded place within the mountain range. He looked inside the primal chaos s.p.a.ce.

He saw divine chains floating in the air, motionless. Evilmoon was also floating in the air, and black qi had spread out of it, enveloping the divine chains. Long Chen clearly sensed Evilmoon greedily devouring the divine energy within the chains.

“Evilmoon, what are these chains? They clearly aren’t divine items, so how could they have divine essence?” asked Long Chen.

He didn’t know whether or not it was because having such a feast had improved Evilmoon’s mood, but it actually gave him a detailed explanation.

This so-called divine energy was related to G.o.ds, and this energy was above all other energy.

When cultivators reached the peak, they would ascend to become immortals or G.o.ds. But before that, they would have already touched upon the air of immortals and G.o.ds.

For example, Life Star experts could possess the slightest immortal aura. But that kind of aura was truly just an aura and was not the true power of immortals or G.o.ds. It could not be used to attack others, nor could it be used to protect themselves. However, it was this slightest aura that allowed them to use quasi divine items.

Quasi divine items were the result of ascenders leaving behind weapons with the slightest trace of divine energy. That was what gave them their divine nature and such high intelligence.

However, quasi divine items were normally just some protective tools left behind by an ascender for their descendants. They weren’t their true wealth.

People were all selfish. If an ascender was willing to part with part of their divine soul and divine blood to empower a weapon, such an item would not be a quasi divine item but a half-step divine item.

However, that would cause their power to drop. Ascending was not as simple as simply wanting to ascend. It involved tribulation.

Ascension and anything related to it only existed in stories. After the great battle of the immortal era, there were no confirmed cases of people pa.s.sing the ascension tribulation.

It wasn’t that their cultivation bases weren’t high enough, but that people who reached that realm didn’t even go through their tribulation, because ever since the immortal war, those who underwent the final tribulation were all turned to dust beneath the divine lightning.

As for after the last dark era, let alone someone attempting the tribulation, there weren’t even any rumors of people who managed to cultivate to that level.

So before coming into contact with Evilmoon, Long Chen hadn’t even known that divine items were cla.s.sified into different grades.

Only at this time did Long Chen learn that the divine pool had the effect of nouris.h.i.+ng divine items. But not every sect was qualified to possess divine items. Many sects could only use Ancestral items.

The divine energy within divine items could be linked to a sect’s karmic luck, their heaven and earth divine pool.

This so-called maintaining karmic luck was mutually beneficial. The divine item protected the sect, whose divine pool nourished the divine item. The more the sect flourished, the greater its divine pool grew. Like rolling a s...o...b..ll, they continued to grow stronger.

That was one case, but another case was for a divine item to gather faith energy.

When he heard about gathering faith energy, Long Chen was startled. He seemed to have heard of such a thing before. Weren’t only true G.o.ds capable of condensing faith energy?

“According to what you’re saying, Lord Brahma and Fallen Daynight are still alive?” asked Long Chen.

“Obviously. As for that statue of the Killing G.o.d that you destroyed, he is also alive. You haven’t reached the level, so you don’t understand. Although these heaven and earth divine springs all look the same to you, they all have an intrinsic difference. All divine springs gather faith energy, but ordinary sects simply use that faith energy to support their karmic luck. As for Pill Valley and the Bloodkill Hall, they wors.h.i.+p true G.o.ds, and their faith energy is offered to their G.o.ds. So not only do they condense the divine spring, but they also condense divine energy within their statues,” said Evilmoon.

“Then are the G.o.ds also on the Martial Heaven Continent?”

“That would be impossible. A low-level place like the Martial Heaven Continent cannot contain G.o.ds. They are on another side, while this is just one place they gather faith energy. Your primal chaos s.p.a.ce is very strange. Once this divine energy entered, it was isolated from the outside world, allowing me to absorb it easily. However, you should be careful. These G.o.ds can bestow their divine energy to their believers through the planar barriers. I’m still in a weak state and wouldn’t be able to block such power,” warned Evilmoon.
