338: Chapter 338 Evolution of the Ancient Divine Body: I Feed on Higher-Dimensional Gods!
Earth's Core, Dimensional Rift.
The offensive formed by the Old God's thousands of starlight arms had become an inescapable net.
Crack—
Another battle-axe condensed from starlight, carrying the Law of severing Karma, struck heavily against the neck of the Desolate Heaven Emperor Venerable Dharma Idol.
Black-gold Dragon scales shattered and flew.
A wound deep enough to see bone spread from the left shoulder all the way to the right collarbone.
That towering demon god was now like a candle in the wind; its massive Physical Body, under the Old God's relentless dimension-reducing strikes, was covered in cracks and on the verge of disintegration.
Lu Sheng stood atop the dharma body's head, his chest heaving violently.
Every time the dharma body was wounded, a Soul-tearing pain would backlash onto his true body.
Golden dragon blood dripped continuously from the corners of his mouth. The moment it touched that "absolute stillness" Domain, it froze into golden ice crystals and fell into the pitch-black rift below.
Defeat was certain.
Or so it seemed.
"Vessel, it's over."
The Old God's emotionless will turned into a mental torrent, pronouncing judgment one last time within Lu Sheng's Sea of Consciousness.
Within the mass of Chaos flesh at its abdomen, all the Nebula Eyes lit up simultaneously.
Tens of thousands of starlight arms stopped their disordered attacks, instead intertwining and undergoing Fusion to transform into a ten-thousand-zhang-long Spear of Judgment in the Void Realm.
The tip of the spear was aimed right at the center of Lu Sheng's brow.
This was the final blow.
At this moment, however, Lu Sheng made a move that left even the Old God stunned.
He dispersed the crumbling dharma body.
That battered black-gold demon god turned into countless specks of light and merged back into his body.
Without the protection of the dharma body, Lu Sheng's tiny Physical Body was completely exposed to the Old God's pressure, which was enough to crush stars.
Far from being afraid, he looked up at the Spear of Judgment and grinned.
There was no resignation in that smile, no despair.
Only the greed and fanaticism of a starving beast seeing top-tier ingredients.
"Over?"
A low growl issued from Lu Sheng's throat as the black-gold Imperial Markings flowed wildly across his body like red-hot branding irons.
"The meal has just been served, who gave you permission to clear the table!"
He didn't try to block the Spear of Judgment.
Instead, he proactively charged toward it.
Just a moment before the spear tip could touch his brow, he jerked his body to the side.
Puchi—
The ten-thousand-zhang starlight spear grazed his cheek and finally, with a domineering posture, pierced through the right side of his chest.
High-dimensional Laws exploded inside his body, wildly tearing at his internal organs.
The intense pain was enough to cause a Spirit King Peak expert's Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering in an instant.
Lu Sheng, however, seemed unable to feel the pain.
Instead, taking advantage of the zero distance from being impaled, he reached out with his Dragon-scale-covered left hand and gripped the starlight spear shaft tightly like an iron vise.
"Got you."
Within Lu Sheng's Cross-shaped Pupils, a greyish-white light flared up.
Deep within his Dantian, that deathly silent millstone—the ancient desolate heaven swallowing furnace—began to reverse wildly at an unprecedented frequency.
A beam of Desolation Death Light, concentrated to the extreme, followed the Meridians of his left arm and was violently injected into the interior of the starlight spear without the slightest leakage!
Sizzle—
The Old God's spear shaft, composed of high-dimensional energy, actually let out a shrill scream, like metal being corroded by strong acid.
The light of the Spear of Judgment instantly dimmed.
But that wasn't all.
Lu Sheng's next move caused the high-and-mighty Old God to experience an emotion called "fear" for the first time.
He opened his mouth.
With a mouthful of ferocious Dragon teeth, he aimed at the starlight spear still stuck in his chest and, fiercely and without hesitation...
Bit down!
Crack!!!
A crisp sound of shattering, like chewing glass, echoed throughout the Earth's Core.
Energy fragments containing high-dimensional Laws, mixed with the blue blood of a god, splattered from the corners of Lu Sheng's mouth.
Like a true beast, he devoured the flesh and blood of the "god" in large gulps.
With every swallow, the wound on his chest healed visibly, and the aura on his body grew more violent.
[Ding! Devoured high-dimensional Law fragments, Physical Body strength +50%!]
[Ding! Ancient Desolate Divine Body analysis progress increased, gained 'Spatial Tear' resistance!]
"Awoo—!!"
A Soul-piercing shriek erupted from that massive Nebula Eye.
The Old God was driven mad.
It tried to sever its connection with the Spear of Judgment and discard the weapon.
"Want to run?"
Lu Sheng's right arm suddenly shot out, and the long-dormant dragon devouring spear manifested out of thin air.
He didn't even aim.
With a flick of his arm, the spear turned into a Soul-snatching purple-gold bolt of lightning and flew from his hand.
The Old God's massive Chaos body was pinned firmly to the edge of the Dimensional Rift by this spear.
Desolation Laws erupted, temporarily sealing all its paths of retreat back into high-dimensional space.
The prey was now pinned to the chopping block.
Lu Sheng no longer paid attention to the pitted starlight spear.
He yanked it out of his chest, allowing the blue divine blood to gush out like a fountain.
Following this wound, his right arm, covered in black-gold Dragon scales, reached directly into the Old God's massive Chaos body.
Tearing!
agitation!
Amidst the Old God's desperate shrieks, Lu Sheng's arm wreaked havoc inside it, accurately locking onto the core of its energy.
"His gift?"
Lu Sheng's palm tightly gripped a crystal that flickered with azure light and was covered in starry coordinates.
Immortal Qin Star Gate Fragment!
"Today, I'll swallow it all, principal and interest included!"
With a roar, he yanked his arm outward.
Puchi!
That Star Gate fragment, which served as the Old God's core, along with a large chunk of flesh composed of high-dimensional Origin, was forcibly ripped out of the Old God's body!
Having lost its core, the Old God's massive body deflated and disintegrated at a visible rate, like a leaking ball.
Before turning completely to ash, that giant Nebula Eye stared fixedly at Lu Sheng, filled with endless malice and... confusion.
Lu Sheng ignored the loser's final words.
He held the still-throbbing "Heart of God" high in his hand, tilted his head back, and swallowed it in one gulp without any hesitation!
Boom—!!!
An unquantifiable amount of high-dimensional energy exploded within his body.
Lu Sheng's Physical Body was instantly stretched until it was covered in cracks, as if it would explode and die in the next second.
But he smiled.
He smiled with incomparable arrogance.
The hole in his chest that had been pierced through healed instantly under the wash of the Star Gate's energy.
On his newborn skin, an extremely complex black-gold Imperial Marking in the shape of a nebula vortex was left behind.
At this moment, his Physical Body strength broke through an inconceivable barrier.
[Physical Body Strength: 3000%... 3500%... 4000%!]
Lu Sheng slowly descended, his feet stepping onto the Void Realm, yet causing ripples in the surrounding space.
Simply by standing there, his every move carried a terrifying power capable of tearing through high-dimensional space.
He had won.
In the most savage and thorough way possible.
However, before he could savor this new power.
A cold, emotionless mechanical countdown sounded without warning in his mind.
The voice originated from the Star Gate fragment he had just swallowed.
[Detected ranch coordinates... Jump channel calibration complete...]
["Reaper" fleet, estimated time of arrival—]
[Ten, nine, eight...]
