CHAPTER 341: CHAPTER 341: THE PLAN TO CONSTRUCT A DIVINE BODY
However, the next words from the Silver Dragon King immediately dashed their hopes.
"I regret to inform you, Fire Dragon King, Ice Dragon King, that in that war, our beast race suffered a crushing defeat. Now, only the God Realm remains. The Divine Beast Realm no longer exists!"
After receiving this confirmation, the remnant souls of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings dimmed even further.
"Then, Your Majesty Silver Dragon King, why have you appeared before us now?"
The Ice Dragon King asked respectfully.
"I did not wish to appear, as I did not want to see my former children in such a pitiful state while I am powerless to help. But for the future of our dragon race, and to see if there is a way to keep you alive, I had no choice but to appear.
Ice Dragon King, Fire Dragon King, Xiao Yu is correct. His physique has already reached a semi-divine level. Currently, due to his insufficient spirit power, his physique only exhibits the strength of a 98th-level Title Douluo.
Once his spirit power catches up, his semi-divine body will fully manifest. If you proceed with your plan to sacrifice yourselves to him now, the result will be his death due to the conflict between two semi-divine physiques. Therefore, I wish to make some changes to your sacrifice plan."
The Silver Dragon King spoke slowly.
"Changes?! Silver Dragon King, what do you plan to do?"
Hearing the words "death by explosion," Xiao Yu couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. Thankfully, he had asked a few more questions. Otherwise, if he had blindly accepted their sacrifice, it would have been disastrous. However, hearing the Silver Dragon King’s words, Xiao Yu couldn’t help but ask curiously.
The Ice and Fire Dragon Kings also listened quietly to the Silver Dragon King’s explanation.
"Nothing much. The essence of the plan is similar to what the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings proposed. The biggest difference is that this time, I plan to use their sacrifice to directly elevate your physique from a semi-divine level to that of a divine official.
In the God Realm, this would be the lowest level of divine physique, the fifth level. However, even though it is only a fifth-level divine physique, it is still infinitely stronger than a semi-divine body!"
The Silver Dragon King’s casual words echoed in Xiao Yu’s ears.
But to Xiao Yu, they were like a bomb exploding in his mind.
They left him both shocked and confused.
"Achieving a divine body? Are you saying you want to directly elevate me to godhood at level 100? But I am only a Soul Sage. Isn’t the gap too large?"
Xiao Yu asked in confusion.
"No, not achieving godhood at level 100. This is purely about elevating your semi-divine body to a complete divine body. Your overall spirit power will remain unchanged for now. This is different from the concept of achieving godhood at level 100 as rumored on the Douluo Continent."
The Silver Dragon King continued.
"A complete divine body?! What does that mean? I am only a Soul Sage. Can I achieve a divine body without reaching level 100?"
The more the Silver Dragon King spoke, the more confused Xiao Yu became. What did this mean?!
Although Xiao Yu knew that gods existed on the Douluo Continent, he didn’t know much about them.
Even in the original story, there wasn’t much detailed information about the God Realm.
Even in the spin-off "God Realm Legend," which focused on the God Realm, the story mainly revolved around the conflict between Tang San and Destruction.
Seeing Xiao Yu’s bewildered expression, the Silver Dragon King explained to both Xiao Yu and the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings.
"Let me put it this way, Xiao Yu. I’ll use a simple analogy. Your current semi-divine body is like a wooden bucket. A divine body is like an iron bucket. The water inside the bucket represents your total spirit power.
In the God Realm, to cultivate and live for an extended period, a divine body is absolutely necessary. This is because the God Realm cultivates a unified divine power, not spirit power or anything else. Therefore, you must create a physique capable of cultivating divine power, which is what we call a divine body!
On the Douluo Continent, there are three ways to obtain a divine body. The first, and most widely known, is to reach level 100 and achieve godhood. This is the most orthodox path of cultivation!
After reaching level 100, you connect with the God Realm, transform your spirit power into divine power, and then use divine power to nurture your body for a hundred years, evolving your mortal body into a divine body. You then officially enter the God Realm and become a divine official.
The second method is to absorb the faith power of humans and use it to forge a divine body, ascending to the God Realm. For example, the Sea God and the Angel God achieved their divine bodies through faith power!
The third method is to inherit a god’s position. When you inherit a god’s position, your body will gradually transform into a divine body capable of cultivating in the God Realm through the trials set by the god!
Each method has its pros and cons, which I won’t go into detail about. I’m just giving you some basic knowledge about divine bodies.
What I mainly want to talk about is the fourth method I came up with by combining the ideas of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings.
That is, using the power of the three extreme attributes you possess, along with the massive energy from the remains of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings, to forcibly elevate your semi-divine body to the level of a divine official’s divine body!
Once your semi-divine body evolves into a divine body, your cultivation speed will increase, and your physique will become stronger. On the Douluo Continent, even if the gods shamelessly send their avatars, they will no longer be your match!
To use another analogy, when you use your wooden bucket to hold water, there are many external limitations, such as fear of fire or being cut by sharp objects.
But when you upgrade your wooden bucket to an iron bucket, many of the limitations that previously hindered your growth will immediately decrease. Your path of cultivation, the process of filling the bucket with water, will become much easier, faster, and more stable!"
Hearing the Silver Dragon King’s words, Xiao Yu fell into deep thought.
Although the Silver Dragon King’s explanation was convoluted, he understood it.
"But Silver Dragon King, wouldn’t this be too risky? I am only a Soul Sage. Wouldn’t directly obtaining a divine body be too big of a leap?"
Hearing this, the Silver Dragon King smiled faintly.
"Of course, it’s a big leap. Even Di Tian only has a semi-divine body right now... For you humans, achieving godhood at level 100 requires nurturing your body with divine power for a hundred years.
A small fry like you, at the Soul Sage level, absolutely cannot withstand the pressure of a divine body. Therefore, my plan is similar to how we handled the True Dragon Nine Crowns. We will temporarily seal your complete divine body.
As your spirit power increases, we will gradually unlock your physique, allowing you to perfectly merge with the divine body step by step, shortening the time required for the fusion. By the time you reach the 99th level, you will have fully merged with the divine body.
At that point, you can fully activate your divine body, minimizing its impact on you while maximizing your combat power!
I estimate that by the time your spirit power reaches the peak of the Title Douluo level, your strength, combined with your divine body, may allow you to fight some third-level gods, or even some weaker second-level gods. Perhaps even some newly ascended first-level gods may not be your match."
