Chapter 647 - 305: New World! Boundless God Remains! (Part 2)

"Observe."

Ye Mingqiu held his breath, bringing his alertness to the extreme, and used the [Divine Skill - Celestial Travel] to soar skyward, looking down on the scene from above.

After changing perspectives, he found that he gradually understood the terrain. The densely packed, towering stone pillars seemed to be the eyebrows of a divine skeleton, and the abyss filled with updrafts was like its hollow eyes.

There seemed to be remnants of corneal fragments lingering at the edge of the eye sockets.

"Hmm..."

Ye Mingqiu suddenly felt a headache, vaguely seeing a Divinity being struck down, falling from a high-dimensional world, with terrifying fist imprints on its face, its form battered beyond recognition.

As the divine skeleton fell, its head faced the sky, and the supreme Three Eyes within its sockets were violently ejected by an unknown presence, transforming into the three orbs of the sun and moon hanging in the sky upon impact with this world. The body was so utterly shattered and distorted that people couldn’t even discern it was a divine skeleton.

It was precisely because of this that the Silent Council was able to easily obscure the truth, keeping it hidden from the world.

"Hmm..."

Ye Mingqiu recovered, looking down at the divine skeleton, murmuring to himself, "Since it’s a divine skeleton, it should also have divine blood? Is it possible to find divine blood here that can be absorbed by the Blood Spear?"

"Buzz! Buzz buzz buzz!"

The Eye of Omaragon began to tremble with urgency, warning him that this divine skeleton was extremely dangerous and that attempting to extract blood could have severe consequences.

The divine skeleton had long been dead for unknown years, with any surface divine blood having already merged into the world. To find divine blood, one would need to cut into its body, delve deeper inside and search for divine blood that hadn’t yet dissipated its power.

This was obviously extremely risky.

"Indeed, this is quite risky," he muttered quietly to himself. Although the danger level of this world hadn’t reached Purgatory Level, it didn’t mean the world was safe. It merely indicated that the depths of danger in this world weren’t that extreme.

He had only ventured into a Purgatory Level World once, where the Level 5 world had two Level 10 Divinities, and those were just the ones he encountered. There was likely more hidden, ones he hadn’t met; the depths of a Purgatory Level World were truly mind-boggling.

More importantly, an Abyss Level was in a relatively stable state of the divine skeleton!

If something happened to the divine skeleton, if some kind of stress response occurred when its body was cut, it could lead to an extremely terrifying disaster—a disaster that even Ye Mingqiu, with demigod power, might not survive.

This divine skeleton was too peculiar; its nature too potent, demanding cautious treatment even in death.

"Currently, I’m positioned at the eye of the divine skeleton. If there’s no surprise, the opposite direction of those stone pillars should lead to its body, and advancing in that direction should bring me to the human continent," Ye Mingqiu thought. But another issue surfaced in his mind...

Is this eye placed correctly?

What if it’s been knocked askew?

This possibility was real because the divine skeleton itself was so utterly wrecked that the world couldn’t detect the anomaly. The placement of the eye might not be correct; perhaps it was a relatively intact fragment that shifted direction upon falling.

What a hassle!

Deciding on a direction is tough!

"Ding!"

Just as Ye Mingqiu was troubled, a prompt from the Spirit Realm sounded on the world channel.

— World Channel —

Zhen Yue: Brothers, this world’s depths seem unfathomable. Never mention anything about the divine skeleton to the world’s natives, or you’ll most likely be hunted to death.

Old Hei: No kidding!

Old Hei: When the divine skeleton was alive, it must have been a faith-based god. Even dead, it can passively accept the power of belief, so it can simultaneously stimulate its instinctive reaction while receiving power, thereby creating new energy for the world.

Old Hei: However, it’s dead, and the increase in belief power can never match consumption, and sooner or later, it will be completely depleted in a few thousand or tens of thousands of years.

Old Hei: If commoners know the truth that the Divinity is dead and their faith collapses, then the source of belief gets cut off, accelerating the world’s demise. Spreading such information is like speeding up the world’s destruction, so of course, they’ll try to kill you with everything they have.

Divine Monarch: How strong are they?

Old Hei: Hard to say.

Old Hei: These top-level natives don’t seem powerful on the surface, but it’s not because they’re weak; they don’t want to consume too much energy from the divine skeleton to enhance themselves. If they really wanted to go all out in battle, they could suddenly get a lot stronger.

Old Hei: They’re also faith-based; their cultivation and combat consume energy converted from the divine skeleton. But the issue is the god is dead, and the conversion efficiency is much lower than when alive. If they wastefully use it... tsk tsk.

Fang Pei: Faith-based?

Fang Pei: If I remember correctly, aren’t faith-based types generally weak? Even Dominator Level faith-based ones are only on par with top-level Monarchs, down a tier. Are they very powerful?

Old Hei: That’s normal faith-based types. Conventionally faith-based strong individuals likely rarely receive divinity responses or blessings, mainly getting assistance at breakthrough bottlenecks, so they’re pretty much still halfway there, overall weaker.

Old Hei: But the situation here is different. The god is dead; its blessings and buffs are instinctive reactions, so every believer can gain power; they’re way stronger than conventional faith-based systems.

Zhen Yue: That’s troublesome.

Divine Monarch: Indeed.

Old Hei: @Divine Monarch, wow, monster!

Zhen Yue: @Divine Monarch, wow, big shot!

Divine Monarch: Give me a location. I landed in an ultra-high-risk zone and can’t return without coordinates.

Fang Pei: ?

Fang Pei: How’d you manage that?

Divine Monarch: My abnormal status resistance under normal conditions is so high that the ultra-high-risk zone poses no threat, so this place is recognized as safe by the Spirit Realm automatically.

Fang Pei: 666!

Zhen Yue: [x, y, z]

Zhen Yue: Come to me, brother!

Fang Pei: Is this brother strong?

Old Hei: How to put it, when I was Tier One Level 10, he was Level 4. Now I’ve moved to Tier Two, and he’s matched with me in the same world.

Fang Pei: Holy sh*t!

Zhen Yue: As long as I work with my brother, this world has no match for us.

....

"Here we go."

Ye Mingqiu opened the map, input the coordinates Zhen Yue provided for navigation, and soon found a highlighted region on the world map. Meanwhile, the area he was in remained in a fog of war state.

It looked like the nature of this ultra-high-risk zone was special, preventing the map from being illuminated.

He roughly calculated the distance—it was about 6700 kilometers between Zhen Yue and him, making a short-term arrival slightly challenging.

[Tyrant Form]

....

Thus, in the Endless Divine Remains World, there emerged a giant over fifty meters tall, walking through the sky and flying at great speed towards the mainland.

"Mama, mama, I think I see a giant flying in the sky!"

"Don’t talk nonsense; children shouldn’t lie."

"Just look up, and you’ll see."

"Huh?"

"Ahhh! My god, there really is a giant flying in the sky! It’s flying so fast. What is happening!!"

....

"Boom!!"

Half a day later, Ye Mingqiu landed with a thud, returning from his Tyrant Form to his original appearance. Standing atop a hill, he wiped the sweat from his brow as he gazed afar at the human cities.

Tier Two worlds weren’t like Tier One ones; high-speed movements through the air were much harder, representing the difference in world strength and spiritual energy concentration. If he hadn’t adjusted in advance at a High Spiritual Energy Concentration Area in the Special Training Camp, it might have taken him another couple of hours to arrive.

Zhen Yue’s current place was the main base of the human faction, the Valoris Empire, formally known as the Valoris Starlight Holy Empire.

The Valoris Empire occupied the most fertile Central Plains among the seven continents, spanning across the divine skeleton’s chest and abdomen skin ridges. It’s bordered by the Infinite Sea to the east, the Eyelash Mountain Range to the west, scorching deserts to the south, and against Lin Tong’s frozen earth to the north. It was the largest territory with the largest population among human empires in the age of nations.

At the end of the Heroic Age, the first emperor of Valoris wielded the Holy Sword of Starlight to slay the abyss aberration giant beast occupying the Central Plains, unifying the scattered human tribes under the name of [Star God’s Guardian], establishing the empire.

Rumor had it that the royal bloodline was somewhat special, with divine skeleton power flowing through and passed down through generations, viewed as the [Star God’s Human Representative].

Ye Mingqiu personally thought that the empire’s first emperor must have obtained some divine skeleton resource, changing his own bloodline and bestowing such abilities to ensure the empire’s prosperity in future generations.

"Brother! You finally made it!"

Zhen Yue swiftly approached from a distance, his face full of joy like he had found a savior.
