493: Heading to the Northern Star Palace
Chen De planned to complete the devouring of these three Inner Worlds before heading to the North Domain Star Palace.
Only with increased strength could he have more certainty regarding subsequent developments.
Chen De never deliberately capped his strength to avoid leveling up; he always tried to add as much power as possible whenever the opportunity arose.
Now that he had this chance, he naturally wouldn't let it pass.
Without hesitation, Chen De opened his mouth directly, and the phantom of his true form appeared behind him.
It was a colossal entity without a specific form, constantly shifting in a state of chaos.
Yet it seemed as if something was holding it together, preventing it from falling apart.
The only constant was that pair of unimaginably massive, blood-red eyes, as if they were watching something at every moment.
Those blood-red eyes were filled with madness, tyranny, slaughter, and frenzy... they looked nothing like the always compassionate Supreme Holy Mother Chen De.
Perhaps his true form becoming like this was the price he paid for suppressing the Evil God with his own body.
But Chen De did not regret it, because if the Evil God were allowed to escape, who knows how many lives it would wreak havoc upon.
Regarding this point, he absolutely could not tolerate it.
Enough talk; Chen De continued his devouring of those three Inner Worlds.
The three Inner Worlds appeared to enter Chen De's mouth, but in reality, the phantom behind him also underwent a change.
Below the blood-red eyes, a bloody maw capable of swallowing the heavens and earth suddenly split open, its size reaching a quarter of the phantom's body.
The mouth was filled with sharp fangs; though no sound could be heard, the sight of them grinding against each other made one's scalp tingle.
Then, the three light orbs delivered themselves into the bloody maw.
At the same time, the three light orbs simultaneously emitted glows of different colors.
To a certain extent, they actually resisted the chewing of the bloody maw.
Soon, the bloody maw gradually disappeared.
All the sharp fangs turned inward, enveloping those three light orbs.
Finally, one of the light orbs could no longer withstand the pressure and shattered.
Observing its external characteristics, it seemed to be the inner small world representing the Abyss Lord.
Speaking of which, it was quite reasonable, since the Abyss Lord was the weakest among the three immortals.
As the Abyss Lord's crushed small world shattered like a glass marble, a faint cracking sound actually drifted out.
Vaguely, it seemed to be accompanied by some sort of unwilling roar.
The chewed-up Inner World was like a peeled egg, no longer possessing any power to resist, left entirely at the mercy of others.
Thus, in just the blink of an eye, the light orb disintegrated into countless specks of light, merging into that blood-colored phantom.
Next were the Inner Worlds representing Grand Elder Third Hong Yu and Supreme Second Elder Shi Li.
According to the division of strength, the next one to be reformed should be Hong Yu's.
Sure enough, after the Abyss Lord's Inner World disintegrated, the remaining two had to collectively bear the extra pressure.
In this way, it would inevitably make their endurance much more difficult.
However, the hardship was only temporary; merging into the body of the Supreme Holy Mother was true ultimate bliss.
Finally, Hong Yu's Inner World could no longer withstand the pressure and followed in the Abyss Lord's footsteps, completely disintegrating.
The resulting countless specks of light merged into Chen De's phantom, causing it to undergo a massive transformation.
According to Chen De's previous tests, the efficiency of devouring through the Inner World was similar to refining them into holy virtue pills.
However, by devouring directly with the Inner World, the energy couldn't be converted into attribute points; instead, it was added directly to the attributes.
As for refining them into holy virtue pills, they could become attribute points, allowing him to distribute them however he pleased.
Both methods had their pros and cons; Inner World devouring was faster, while holy virtue pills offered more flexibility.
Therefore, when using these two methods, Chen De would decide based on the situation.
For instance, just now, when devouring the Abyss Lord's Inner World, Chen De used the Inner World digestion method.
Directly adding the attribute points to his stats, it was a total of 2.4 points; it was clear that the Abyss Lord was stronger than Fairy Xian Qing, but not by much.
These 2.4 points were evenly added to defense and attack, causing attack to go from 5.9 to 7.1 and defense from 1.7 to 2.9.
Indeed, the Inner World devouring method distributed attributes evenly.
By the time Hong Yu's Inner World was also devoured and absorbed by Chen De, it had brought him a total increase of five attribute points.
Whether compared to Xichen Domain, Positive Separation, or the Abyss Lord, or even Yuan Chen, it was a much higher amount.
The increase of these five attribute points brought his attack to 9.6 and defense to 5.4.
With just a little more, Chen De's attack would reach the peak level of the Demon Venerable Realm First Transformation.
Therefore, for this final Inner World of Shi Li, to avoid waste, Chen De would not use the Inner World method to devour it.
After all, the excess energy might really be wasted, since his Law had not yet broken through.
Now, all the pressure from Shi Li's Inner World was vented solely upon it.
The terrifying pressure instantly caused it to be covered in cracks, as if it would shatter with a bang in the next moment.
But Shi Li's own powerful strength allowed him to hold on for a while longer.
But unfortunately, under the Holy Mother's compassion, what solid thing wouldn't be softened and melted by warmth?
In the same manner, Shi Li's small world also shattered.
However, it did not turn into countless specks of light like the previous two, but was instead aggregated by some kind of energy.
Constantly condensing and shrinking, it finally turned into a small bead the size of a sun.
Inside Chen De's body, it was refined and absorbed on the spot.
There was no loss in the process, and no middleman to take a cut.
The attribute points obtained from it totaled eight full points; such was the elegance of the peak of the Immortal Law Realm.
Chen De did not hesitate at all, using 4.8 of them to max out his attack and defense.
With 3.2 remaining, Chen De looked at the plus sign behind the Slaughter Law Profundity; it was still dim and lightless.
Needless to say, this was definitely because Chen De didn't have enough attribute points.
Chen De didn't know how many were needed to break through the Slaughter Law Profundity, but it probably wouldn't be too many.
After all, this was considered a minor realm breakthrough; it wouldn't be too difficult for Little Chen Chen.
According to his estimation, ten attribute points should be about the right amount.
The Palace Master of the North Domain Star Palace was much more powerful than Shi Li.
So he would surely be able to help him obtain the remaining few attribute points needed.
Not only that, this North Domain Star Palace was also the last stumbling block for Chen De to sweep through the Xichen Domain.
As for the Heartless Hall, after destroying the North Domain Star Palace, there would be no need to take them seriously at all.
Waiting for his subordinates to pack up everything that needed packing, Chen De set out on his journey once again.
Autopiloting the light-piercing ship, he advanced at full speed toward his current destination—the North Domain Star Palace!
Any Life Planets passed along the way were also taken in by Chen De's powerful aura, leaving not a single one behind.
