Chapter 144 A Hundred Billion Divine Ranks
In the world of Panlong, in the hellish plane, deep within the sea of starlight and mist, aboard a massive metallic life-giving spaceship.
Lin Lei sat on the front deck, another spatial ring in his hand.
He stretched out his palm, and the mountain of colorful crystals inside the ring was clearly reflected in his divine sense.
These countless crystals are the divine essences of lower-level gods.
In the Yulan Continent, divine qualities that are almost a once-in-a-millennium occurrence are now piled up like small mountains in Linley's hands.
Seeing this divine figure, as large as a small mountain, Linley nodded:
"Adding these 10 billion or so lower-level godhoods, it's enough to reach 100 billion."
It has been almost nine years since I returned from the Zhutian Pavilion.
Over the past nine years, he has been piloting his metallic life form through the starry sea and searching for divine beings in the cities he passes by.
Speaking of which, the divine status of a lower-level god is really cheap.
After all, in a city's restaurants, a dish made with sacred magical beasts costs at least twenty inkstones, and dishes made with lower-level divine beasts as raw materials can cost hundreds or even thousands.
A single night's stay in a room in one of the various cities costs one hundred inkstones.
In comparison, a lower-level godhood is only worth one hundred inkstones.
So, in the world of hell, lower-level gods are really not even as good as a chicken.
At least a chicken wouldn't necessarily be this cheap.
"Phew, I wonder why the Pavilion Master of the Heavens Pavilion needs so many lower-level godhoods."
Lin Lei shook his head at this thought, rubbing the ring. His divine sense swept over another spatial ring, where a uniquely shaped weapon lay quietly—the C9-grade laser gun.
Nine years have passed, and he no longer doubts the weapon's power.
Because this gun can actually kill beings at the level of a seven-star demon.
But the contract from the Pavilion of All Heavens remained an invisible thread, preventing him from slacking off in the slightest.
"Lin Lei, what are you looking at?"
A gentle voice came from behind him, and Delia, dressed in a light blue dress, slowly walked to his side.
Her gaze fell on the spatial ring in Lin Lei's hand, and she showed a curious expression.
"What exactly are you planning to do with all these lower-level divine essences you've collected over these nine years?"
For the past nine years, she has watched Linley collect the divine beings that are ubiquitous in the High Plane. From initial doubt to later getting used to it, she has never understood his intentions.
Because it's so strange.
She really couldn't understand it.
Lower-level gods are commonplace in the highest planes, and for a seven-star demon like Linley, even serving as a guard would be a burden, let alone collecting hundreds of billions.
It's impossible to cultivate power by taking down a god's divine status.
It's not some ancient, desolate continent.
That would be laughed at in hell.
After all, what's the difference between that and raising a hundred billion chickens?
It should be noted that this number, converted into the divine sparks of a high-ranking god, could buy nearly a million, enough to support the foundation of an upper-class family.
Even in Hell, the Hundred Directions Supreme Gods are not a small force.
"Boss, why are you creating so many divine titles?"
Beibei's voice followed immediately, her round eyes shining as she stared at the ring: "At first I thought you were preparing a snack for me, but you insisted it wasn't and wouldn't let me touch it, how strange."
Linley turned to look at Delia, reached out and ruffled Bebe's hair, then put the spatial ring back into his pocket, saying in a flat tone, "It's nothing."
It's just useful.
"Was it useful?" Delia pressed, a hint of worry in her voice, "But so much—"
A hundred billion divine essences mean the lives of a hundred billion lower-level gods.
Even in the divine plane, this number would be enough to make mid-level gods gasp in astonishment; when converted to the material plane, it would be unimaginably enormous.
Di Lin and the others on the other side of the deck also looked over upon hearing the sound, their eyes filled with the same doubt.
Seeing that Lin Lei was unwilling to say more, they tacitly refrained from pressing him for details.
Lin Lei shook his head and said, "You don't need to worry about it."
The loan period is neither short nor long, only about 100 years. It's best to pay it off as soon as possible.
Delia looked at the deep purple in Linley's eyes, opened her mouth, but ultimately didn't ask any more questions.
She knew Lin Lei's personality; if he didn't want to talk about something, asking again would be useless.
Beibei, however, didn't have such thoughts. It took out a divine spark, swallowed it, and pointed ahead, saying, "Boss, according to the map, if we cross this sea area ahead, we should be able to reach Youlan Mansion in another year or two, right?"
Lin Lei looked up into the depths of the starlight and nodded gently: "Yes, it'll be soon."
He was excited at the thought that he would soon be able to see his ancestors.
The Azure Palace, the home of the four great divine beast families, is also his destination on this trip to the Starry Sea.
However, Lin Lei's divine sense involuntarily fell on the two rings in his arms once again.
He took a deep breath, suppressing his distracting thoughts. His gaze returned to the endless sea of stars and mist, a sharp glint flashing in his purple eyes.
"Let's go to the Pavilion of All Heavens first." He nodded slightly, a hint of anticipation in his eyes: "Yes, soon."
Soon, we will be able to meet the ancestors of the Dragonblood Warrior lineage.
The thought of this made his heart skip a beat.
The Azure Palace, the foundation of the four great divine beast families, is also the end of his seven-hundred-year journey through hell.
As his divine sense swept over the two rings in his pocket, the ring containing the laser gun felt a cool touch, reminding him that there was still something he needed to do.
Lin Lei took a deep breath, temporarily suppressing his expectations for the Azure Palace.
Open the Zhutian Pavilion panel in your mind.
Let's go to the Pavilion of All Heavens first.
In the world of Swallowing the Stars, Xu Qing, who had just sold hundreds of thousands of Chaos Units, suddenly felt the Heavenly Decree in his mind tremble slightly once again.
He raised his eyebrows slightly.
"It's much faster than I expected."
"I originally thought it would take at least several decades based on the current flow of time."
He recalled the history of the Panlong world, which was already eight or nine hundred billion billion years old, and compared it with the cultivation years in Swallowed Star, which were often calculated in units of the destruction of stars.
"Pfft, could it be that worlds from the same lineage even have similar time flows?"
Thinking this, Xu Qing lightly tapped his fingertip in the void, agreeing to the guidance.
The next moment, Linley, who had just clicked on the panel, saw the light and shadow in front of him change abruptly. The figures of everyone on the deck disappeared like the tide, and in their place was the familiar wooden pavilion.
"Sect Master Xu." Lin Lei nodded slightly.
"I've come to fulfill my promise."
As soon as he finished speaking, countless divine sparks of various colors appeared in the spatial ring in Lin Lei's hand. Most of them were only the size of a thumb, but their quantity was so enormous that they almost filled the entire space.
But the next moment, this cascading divine essence fell into a display shelf.
Xu Qing glanced at the display shelves and nodded slightly.
No more, no less, exactly 100 billion.
