167: Chapter 167 Foundation and Pillar, Dividing Divine Thoughts

Within the Spiritual World of Qin Feng's mind.

A deep, thick gray mist drifted everywhere, shrouding the three tall and majestic Martial Arts Foundation Pillars, revealing only faint, indistinct outlines.

Suddenly.

The dark gray mist began to churn.

A black worm appeared.

This black worm was filled with an aura of omen and filth. As soon as it appeared, waves of dark energy as thick as ink washed out from its body, transforming into black tentacles that intended to wreak havoc within this Spiritual World.

However, just then.

Boom!

The entire Spiritual World shook violently.

The previously calm dark gray mist surged frantically at this moment. Simultaneously, the entire world began to tremble violently, as if it were on the verge of collapsing and crumbling in the next instant.

This situation.

Caused the black worm to freeze in surprise.

"What is going on?"

The black worm was a manifestation of the little girl's Divine Thought, the Goddess of Dark Abundance. She knew that the structure of the self-Spiritual World for all intelligent life in this world was varied and strange.

Eerie, abstract, indescribable...

These were all common occurrences.

But one point was crucial.

No matter how bizarre one's self-Spiritual World was, it had to have a boundary and... it had to be stable.

A Spiritual World without a boundary.

And one that shook and roared at every turn.

This meant that...

The Spiritual World could collapse and shatter at any time or place!

And such a crumbling Spiritual World...

Generally.

Only those lunatics who were frenzied and mutated to the extreme possessed them!

"This strange gray mist doesn't seem to have any boundaries at all..."

"Combined with this vibration and roaring..."

"This human is definitely a lunatic, a complete and utter raving madman!"

"But his appearance and mental state seem perfectly normal."

"Why is that?"

A question mark surfaced within the little girl's Divine Thought.

She tried hard to think.

She felt like this situation... was very familiar.

It was as if she had encountered such an existence before.

Then, very quickly...

The little girl gave up on thinking.

"Forget it, right now I've only just recovered some of my abilities as a deity, and they are only extremely superficial powers. I haven't even grasped a single shred of divine authority in my hands."

"And without authority, my memories are fragmented."

"Better to just stop thinking."

The little girl muttered to herself.

She knew.

On the surface, she seemed majestic, able to use the power and abilities of a deity and even grant blessings to others, but in reality... everything relied solely on the bit of Divine Power she had recovered.

Above Divine Power.

There was the most critical power of divine authority.

Without authority.

One was merely a false god.

And she, at most, could be considered a mere sliver of the Goddess of Dark Abundance.

"Regardless of what is special about this human."

"Since he has provoked me."

"And made me unhappy."

"Then I shall torture him to death and scatter his ashes!"

Killing intent surged within the little girl.

Just as she was about to act.

Suddenly.

Boom!!!

Within Qin Feng's Spiritual World, there was another violent roar. A massive amount of dark gray mist swirled wildly, whipping up a fierce gale that blew the black worm containing the little girl's consciousness backward in an instant.

For a moment, the black worm felt dizzy.

"Is there no end to this?!"

Anger and irritation flared within the little girl's Divine Thought.

However, in the next moment.

As her gaze focused ahead.

In an instant...

She was stunned.

She saw within the violently churning dark gray mist, one, two, three... tall, magnificent pillars filled with a thick sense of mystery appeared.

The pillars propped up the firmament.

They were so high they were beyond sight.

And the aura radiating from the pillars...

That ancient, vast, and brilliantly majestic aura!

It actually caused a sense of fear to instinctively surge within the little girl's Divine Thought—a fear engraved in her bones and the depths of her Soul!

"That, that is..."

The little girl's expression changed drastically.

Her entire body suddenly trembled and shook:

"Why would this thing appear here?!"

Boom!

In the next instant.

The little girl's consciousness within the black worm was instantly extinguished.

Before it vanished.

She only felt that within her consciousness, there echoed a series of strange, terrifying chewing sounds that even she, a deity, found horrifying...

...

The Ether Layer of the Rising Sun Behemoth Factory.

Deep within the Spatial Pustule.

"No! No, no! Don't eat me..."

The moment the little girl's face changed, the black mist throne behind her instantly collapsed and vanished.

Thud!

She fell straight onto the ground.

She landed hard on her backside.

Feeling the sharp pain spreading through her body, the little girl's thoughts finally cleared a bit, but the gloom on her face was heavy and dark, looking as if she had been completely broken.

"Hmm?"

On Qin Feng's side.

As the dark tentacles binding his body dissipated.

He immediately regained his freedom.

However...

Seeing this little girl, the Goddess of Dark Abundance, fall so pathetically from mid-air, landing on her butt with a blank expression as if she had been broken, his expression couldn't help but turn a bit strange.

"What's the situation?"

Qin Feng couldn't help but rub his chin.

He was naturally aware of what happened in the Spiritual World.

This little girl's Divine Thought hadn't even had time to stir up trouble in his mental Spiritual World before it was devoured by those three Martial Arts Foundation Pillars.

Don't be fooled by the little girl's Divine Thought.

It was just a tiny black worm.

But the essence contained within it.

Was truly significant.

After the three Martial Arts Foundation Pillars finished their feast, Qin Feng felt that these three pillars had become increasingly massive and mysterious.

Originally, he had always felt that while these three pillars seemed huge and majestic, they actually possessed a sense of illusion, making them feel not quite real.

But now...

They gave him a strange sense of reality.

"The Martial Arts Foundation Pillars in my mind can indeed devour Divine Thought."

"However, I wonder what is contained within this Divine Thought that could make these Martial Arts Foundation Pillars suddenly become so ravenous?"

Qin Feng felt a bit of curiosity.

Divine Thought...

No matter what.

It should just be strands of thought and consciousness, right?

It didn't contain mental energy like spirituality or divinity.

Why would the Martial Arts Foundation Pillars want to devour it so hungrily?

"This kind of question can only be understood slowly in the future."

"After all, for an existence of a divine status, a normal person probably wouldn't encounter one in their entire life, right?"

While pondering.

Qin Feng rolled his eyes.

He looked at the little girl, the Goddess of Dark Abundance, sitting blankly on the ground.

Seeing that she didn't have any reaction for a moment.

He narrowed his eyes.

A cold glint flashed in his eyes:

"Right now, it seems like a good time to finish off this 'Goddess of Dark Abundance'..."

He raised his palm.

Swish!

A cold gleam flashed through the void.

The whispers of the ancient god.

It appeared within his palm.
