Chapter 654
654 Madness and relief (1)
A spirit body was an extremely special existence. They were living creatures before they died, and after they died, they turned into a spirit body, but they also became an existence close to energy.
The process of turning into energy was a stage that King level cultivators had to go through. The meaning behind it wasn’t simple, because it was a process of transformation from a lower life form to a higher life form.
A spirit body didn’t need to reach the king level to reach this level. Although it wasn’t exactly the same and had various flaws, it was very similar in general.
To appear in this form of energy after death, was it unfortunate or lucky?
The reason why living beings would turn into spiritual bodies after death was because of the strong obsession in their hearts. This foreign cultivator was one such example.
He had witnessed his lover being tortured to death with his own eyes, and he was in so much pain that he wished he was dead. Then, he was humiliated by the city Lord’s son in every way possible, and the suppressed anger in him was almost tangible.
Later on, his private actions even implicated the entire family, bringing a life-and-death crisis to his family!
It was also at that moment that the resentment that he had suppressed in his heart completely erupted. He no longer had any scruples and directly detonated the star-destroying bomb that Tang Zhen had given him.
Being at the center of the explosion and having an extremely strong obsession in their hearts, the foreign cultivators were the biggest beneficiaries.
After becoming a spirit body, he actually became the strongest among the new Ghost domain. No spirit body was his match!
When he realized this, all the suppressed desires he had while he was alive instantly erupted, completely distorting his personality.
With the support of his powerful strength, he did not hesitate to seek revenge on his enemies. He conquered all the spirit bodies here and acted according to his thoughts without any scruples.
Unconsciously, his thoughts became more and more clear, and his actions became more and more domineering, to the point that he actually developed the ridiculous idea of being the only one in the world.
The reason why he was so happy after seeing Tang Zhen was not because of Tang Zhen’s gift back then. Instead, it was because he felt that the blood essence in Tang Zhen’s body was just right to use.
As long as it was something useful to him, he would take it without any scruples, because he was no longer the same as before!
However, Tang Zhen had done him a favor in the past. Therefore, the foreign cultivator decided to show some sincerity and persuade him with good words. This was in line with his current status and strength.
However, if this human cultivator didn’t know how to appreciate his kindness, then he couldn’t blame him for taking tough measures!
Although he couldn’t see through Tang Zhen’s cultivation, the foreign cultivator didn’t take it to heart. This was because he was extremely confident in his own strength. He was even secretly pleased with himself.
As for whether Tang Zhen’s cultivation level was higher than his, the foreign race cultivator was not worried at all because that was simply impossible.
After all, by chance, the foreign cultivator had unexpectedly advanced to a 4-star horde leader. This kind of cultivation was almost unimaginable to him when he was alive, and his strength was enough to terrorize a thousand li!
Moreover, this kind of situation could only be encountered by luck, and might even be the only case!
No matter how fast Tang Zhen’s cultivation rose, there would always be a limit. It was impossible for him to cross several levels in a short period of time!
That wasn’t a myth, but a dream talk!
Therefore, from the perspective of the foreign race cultivators, no matter how strong Tang Zhen was, he would definitely not be able to reach his current level. Once he made a move, he would definitely be crushed without a doubt!
It wasn’t unreasonable for the foreign cultivator to have such thoughts.
After all, the higher the level of the cultivators in the world of loucheng, the more difficult it was to advance. After advancing to the Lord-tier, the process of advancement would be even more difficult.
However, if one became a resident of a national-level building, the difficulty would be reduced by a lot with the bonus of the building’s attributes, which made it easier to improve cultivation.
This was the reason why there were very few Lord-level cultivators in ordinary loucheng, but there were many of them in National loucheng.
Of course, this was the process of a cultivator’s promotion under normal circumstances. Except for a few special circumstances, 99% of the cultivators in Lou city followed this path.
If one did not personally witness the speed at which Tang Zhen’s cultivation rose, no one would believe it.
Therefore, there was absolutely no problem with the alien overlord’s thinking. However, it was a little too suitable for Tang Zhen. After all, his advancement method was different from others!
There were many people in the outside world who were concerned. While they were paying attention to the Holy Dragon City, they also noticed Tang Zhen’s abnormal cultivation speed.
After some analysis, they were convinced that Tang Zhen’s original cultivation must have been extremely high. However, it was sealed for some reason and could only be unsealed after certain conditions were met.
Combined with the rumor that he came from a continent-level city and the magical ability he had shown, these forces had some guesses in their hearts. They were afraid that Tang Zhen’s identity in the continent-level city was not simple!
Tang Zhen had also heard of similar rumors. However, he merely laughed in response and did not have the time to bother about them!
……
At this moment, Tang Zhen finally stopped laughing in the gray fog region.
What the foreign cultivator did just now was like a self-righteous rat forcing a Tiger to commit suicide. It was really ridiculous!
Although he knew that after becoming a spirit body, one’s original character would undergo a great change and distortion, and it was not strange for one to do things that were not logical, Tang Zhen was still amused by this foreign cultivator until he laughed.
It was extremely rare for the current Tang Zhen to have such a large opening.
Ever since he became the Holy Dragon city’s city Lord, Tang Zhen could be said to have done his best to manage it. It also made him busier and busier, and he rarely had free time.
After breaking through to the king level, his body had undergone a qualitative change and was advancing toward a higher life form. He even had a faint feeling that he was above countless living beings.
However, the increase in his cultivation also brought about a sense of loneliness in his heart. He began to be serious and had less time to communicate with others.
Tang Zhen would often think that if he were to continuously raise his cultivation, he would definitely be able to obtain the longevity that countless people dreamed of.
However, after countless years, he would no longer have any friends or family by his side. What was the point of his existence if he was left with only loneliness and solitude?
Living for the sake of living, wasn’t that no different from grass, trees, mountains, and rocks?
It was also because of this that Tang Zhen began to learn to slow down his pace and slowly enjoy the joy of life.
After all, life is short and Lou Cheng’s advancement is a long one. Why not cherish every exciting moment?
However, even though he thought this way, he couldn’t take this step. He always felt that something was blocking him, making him unable to open his heart.
However, that unintentional loud laughter earlier had caused Tang Zhen’s heart to suddenly become clear. His thoughts had also instantly become clear!
The profound meaning within this was likely something that only Tang Zhen himself could experience!
After carefree laughter, Tang Zhen no longer paid attention to the confused and frightened foreign cultivator. Instead, he sized up the flirtatious foreign woman in front of him.
At the same time, that foreign tribe woman was also staring at Tang Zhen. Her face carried a faint smile while a trace of annoyance faintly appeared in her eyes.
“If we count carefully, this is the third time we have met, right?
I suddenly realized that every time I see you, you always bring me a great surprise!”
Tang Zhen looked at the foreign lady opposite him and spoke in a faint voice.
“It should be said that you always give people surprises. At least, every time I see you, I can see that your cultivation has increased by a large margin, and you’ve even advanced to the king tier!
Tang Zhen, how did you do it? why don’t you share it with me? I won’t take it for free, I’ll definitely give you benefits!”
The foreign woman looked at Tang Zhen without blinking. Her tone carried a trace of curiosity. There was also an obvious probing look in her eyes. It was obvious that she was not lying.
this is my secret, and I don’t need to tell you. Even if I did tell you, you wouldn’t be able to do it!
Tang Zhen shook his head, indicating that the foreign tribe woman should give up as soon as possible.
Hmph, that’s not necessarily true. If I devour your soul, I might be able to do it!
The woman said with a regretful tone, clearly unwilling to give up. At the same time, she stuck out her tongue and licked the corner of her mouth.
“However, according to the memories I obtained from the devouring soul, you seem to have come from a secret continent-level building, and your cultivation has been sealed before. That’s why you’ve advanced so quickly.
Now that I think about it, this should be the most likely possibility!”
A hint of disappointment appeared in the female’s eyes as she spoke. At the same time, there was a hint of reminiscence.
Tang Zhen sized up the foreign woman when he heard this. He asked in a curious tone,”From what you’re saying, could it be that you can obtain the memories of every soul that you’ve devoured?”
“Of course, this is my innate ability!”
The woman replied with a proud tone.
