A terrifying intermediate-level true god!
Swish!
White Night brandished the Eternal Demon Blade in his hand.
The airflow generated by the blade actually carved a black Void Rift in the void, and the chaotic aura seeping from the rift was automatically absorbed by the blade.
He could clearly feel that the demon blade now not only inherited all the abilities of the Boundary-Breaking Thunder Halberd, but its power was also 30% stronger than when the two weapons were used separately, thanks to the devouring and fusion!
"I've ascended to True God, and the Eternal Demon Blade has officially ascended to a divine artifact!"
"Perfect!"
White Night nodded in satisfaction and sheathed the demon blade.
The floor of the golden hall suddenly trembled violently, and the central platform slowly sank, revealing a staircase leading deeper below.
The staircase was paved with transparent Law Crystals, each step corresponding to a primal law, exuding an even denser sacred aura than before.
White Night didn't hesitate; at this moment, he possessed absolute confidence.
He walked straight over and descended the stairs. The walls on both sides of the staircase were inlaid with countless fragments of divine cores, which preserved the combat memories of ancient gods.
White Night's spiritual power swept over these fragments, and countless combat techniques and insights into laws flooded into his mind like a tide.
There was Zeus's Thunder Judgment, Poseidon's Myriad Streams Returning to Origin, and the ultimate techniques of ancient war gods whose names were not recorded in myths!
"So that's how it is. The God Conferment Path is not just a trial of strength, but also a continuation of inheritance."
White Night stopped and looked at the largest divine core fragment on the wall.
Within the fragment, a god clad in Star Battle Armor, wielding a weapon similar to the Eternal Demon Blade, was battling a Demon Abyss Behemoth that blotted out the sky. In the end, at the cost of his own divine core, he sealed the behemoth.
"Is this... the first Thunder Sovereign?"
White Night's fingertip lightly touched the fragment, which suddenly burst into dazzling light, completely enveloping his figure.
When the light dissipated, he found himself in a chaotic space. In the center of the space, the Demon Abyss Behemoth he had seen in the fragment slowly turned, its nine heads' crimson pupils simultaneously locking onto him.
"Another little fellow who inherited the Thunder Law," the behemoth's voice was like countless metals grinding together. "To obtain the complete God Conferment inheritance, you must pass my trial!"
Before its voice faded, the behemoth's leftmost head spat out a gray-black beam of light. Wherever the beam passed, the chaotic space dissolved!
White Night dared not be careless. The Eternal Demon Blade was unsheathed, and the blade's three-colored flowing light intertwined to form a spiral barrier. Defensive runes, learned from the divine core fragments, appeared on the barrier's surface.
"Boom!"
The beam collided with the barrier, and White Night felt his arm go numb as a huge fissure appeared in the chaotic ground beneath his feet.
He retreated a hundred zhang with the recoil, his Nine Revolutions Divine Power circulating at full speed, and the demon blade's Thunder Prison Domain suddenly expanded!
The chaotic space within a three-thousand-zhang radius was filled with purple-gold lightning. Countless bolts of lightning transformed into spears, raining down on the behemoth.
The behemoth's other eight heads roared simultaneously, spouting eight different law torrents of ice, fire, poison, etc., which collided with the lightning spears.
Rumble--!
The two forces annihilated each other, and the resulting shockwave caused the chaotic space to tremble violently.
White Night seized this opportunity, his figure transforming into a purple-gold lightning bolt. The Eternal Demon Blade, infused with all the power of the Thunder Sovereign, slashed towards the behemoth's central head.
"Interesting," the behemoth's central head opened its massive maw, and a black sphere containing the Law of Destruction flew out.
The moment the black sphere collided with the demon blade, White Night suddenly felt a brief stagnation in the law power within his body!
The devouring effect of the Law of Destruction on all energy.
But he was prepared; the divine core fragments recorded methods to counter it.
White Night fiercely activated the divine Thunder Core within him. The Eternal Demon Blade's body suddenly glowed with a faint golden light, and countless tiny runes appeared within the light. These runes formed the character "Seal" (seal up), firmly locking the black sphere in mid-air.
"Now!" A fierce glint flashed in White Night's eyes.
The next instant.
The power of the Thunder Prison Domain was amplified to its extreme. All the lightning spears converged into a colossal blade that pierced through heaven and earth. The giant blade, carrying the might to tear apart chaos, precisely struck the center of the behemoth's central head's brow!
"Awooo!"
The behemoth let out a deafening shriek. Its nine heads simultaneously exploded, and its massive body disintegrated into countless specks of light amidst the lightning.
When the last wisp of light dissipated, the chaotic space began to collapse. Countless images of ancient gods flashed before White Night's eyes, finally settling on a floating golden token.
The token was engraved with the four ancient characters "Thunder Sovereign" and inlaid with nine star gems along its edges, exuding a pressure that surpassed even divine artifacts.
"God Conferment Token!" White Night reached out and grasped the token. A pure stream of inheritance power surged into his body through his arm.
Immediately after.
The light of the nine halos became unprecedentedly brilliant, and the domain phantoms at the halos' edges gradually solidified, finally forming his own law domain!
[Obtained God Conferment Token: Thunder Sovereign]
[Effect: Can mobilize the Thunder Law within a ten-thousand-li radius, dealing 1000% additional damage to all Demon Abyss creatures.]
[Unlocked Permission: Enter the core of the Eternal Sacred Ruins - God Conferment Platform]
The chaotic space completely dissipated, and White Night's figure reappeared at the end of the staircase.
Ahead was a white jade plaza suspended in the void. On the high platform in the center of the plaza, twelve dragon-coiled pillars supported a massive golden disc, engraved with a map of the entire Eternal Sacred Ruins. The very center of the map glowed with dazzling red light.
That was the location of the God Conferment Platform.
On the plaza, countless remnants of divine abominations wandered. They were the Demon Abyss vanguards who had fallen in the ancient God Conferment War, and even the weakest among them had reached the early stage of Nine Revolutions!
But when these remnant souls sensed the aura of the God Conferment Token on White Night, they all showed fear, instinctively retreating and daring not to approach.
"That saves some trouble."
White Night chuckled and stepped towards the golden disc.
The red light on the disc suddenly brightened, and a teleportation gate composed of law runes unfolded before him. Behind the gate, a high platform cast from divine gold could vaguely be seen.
On the high platform, countless law chains entwined a pulsating golden 'heart'.
"Finally, the end is near."
White Night gripped the Eternal Demon Blade, took a deep breath, and stepped into the teleportation gate.
He knew that after the God Conferment Platform, the final battle with the Demon Abyss awaited him, but at this moment, he already possessed the power to change the tide of war!
The light of the teleportation gate slowly dissipated, leaving only the trembling remnant souls of divine abominations on the white jade plaza.
And the supreme divine might of the new Thunder Sovereign, permeating the air!
...Space power surged, and White Night teleported away.
When the teleportation halo dissipated, his boots landed on the cool divine gold ground.
Looking around.
The God Conferment Platform was even larger than imagined, with a diameter of ten thousand zhang.
Twelve dragon-coiled pillars pierced into the clouds, and the law chains entwined around their bodies wriggled like living creatures.
At the end of the chains, they connected to a pulsating golden 'heart' in the center of the high platform.
A Game System prompt appeared, revealing that it was actually the Law Source Core of the Eternal Sacred Ruins!
Thump!
Thump!
Each beat of the 'heart' caused the entire God Conferment Platform to ripple with faint golden light.
When the ripples spread to the edge, a translucent barrier would appear at the boundary with the void, firmly blocking the roaring Demon Abyss aura from outside.
But at this moment, the barrier was covered in spiderweb-like cracks, and gray-black mist was slowly seeping through the cracks, corroding fine holes in the divine gold ground.
"It's more critical than expected."
White Night looked up at the void, where the purple-black Void Rift had expanded to a thousand li wide. Within the rift, a massive claw covered in dark red scales could vaguely be seen, with broken star fragments hanging from the barbs on its tips!
The Game System showed that this was the Middle True God mentioned by the golden face, the Star Devourer.
White Night looked at the opponent indifferently.
Just then.
Thump!
The pulsation of the Law Core suddenly became chaotic, and countless gray-black patterns appeared on the surface of the golden heart!
The Demon Abyss's Law of Corrosion suddenly surged, beginning to frantically erode the core.
The twelve dragon-coiled pillars simultaneously emitted a low hum, and the runes on the chains lit up, attempting to suppress the spread of corrosion.
But the glowing light only lasted for a short while, quickly dimming at a visible speed.
Bang--!
With a bang, the golden heart suddenly cracked open!
At the same time, a crack also suddenly appeared in the barrier at the boundary of the void!
"Roar!"
A deafening roar came from the Void Rift, and the Star Devourer's head slowly emerged from the crack.
This was a huge, hideous head covered in fleshy tumors.
Countless crimson eyes were embedded in the tumors, each eyeball rotating, filled with a strange and evil aura.
Surging gray-black mist poured in, and law energy full of corrosive power began to invade the Eternal Sacred Ruins!
The crimson eyeballs locked onto White Night on the God Conferment Platform.
Around the Star Devourer's neck were broken law chains, with several dim divine core fragments still hanging from their ends. These were wounds left by the gods during the ancient war.
"Another True God coming to die."
The Star Devourer's voice was like grinding millstones. With each word spoken, countless tiny black holes would rip open in the void.
"I can't even remember how many such fools there have been; their bone fragments have all been ground into stardust by me."
White Night didn't respond, gripping the Eternal Demon Blade, his eyes coldly staring at the ugly giant head before him.
The blade's three-colored flowing light automatically brightened.
He could feel that the Star Devourer's aura was indeed incredibly powerful, far surpassing the God Slayer by more than one level.
The law domain of a Middle True God was terrifying, not on the same level as a Lower True God.
At this moment, the Star Devourer's law domain had spread out, frantically clashing with the power of the Eternal Sacred Ruins.
Countless special law fragments floated in the gray-black mist. If the Eternal Sacred Ruins were completely conquered, its law core would also become a part of it.
At this moment.
"Dream on!"
White Night's voice echoed on the God Conferment Platform.
The Nine Revolutions True God's pressure burst forth without reservation.
At the same time, the nine great halos circulated around his body, erupting with unparalleled divine might!
The next moment.
Buzz!
The runes on the dragon-coiled pillars suddenly shone with dazzling divine light, resonating.
In an instant, the twelve stone pillars simultaneously spewed golden beams of light, which converged into a massive thunder array above the high platform.
Within the thunder array, countless purple-gold lightning bolts were like divine dragons poised to strike!
The Star Devourer's tumorous eyeballs rotated simultaneously, surprised by this sudden turn of events.
"Law resonance? Interesting. If I devour you, perhaps I can complete my missing Space Law."
The next moment.
It suddenly extended its hand. The massive claw covered in dark red scales penetrated the Void Rift, its tip carrying the power to tear everything apart, and directly grabbed towards the Law Core.
Boom!
Wherever it passed, the golden barrier shattered like paper.
More gray-black mist surged in through the claw marks, and the holes in the divine gold ground instantly expanded, revealing the surging law magma flowing beneath!
...
