Divine-level Base

Chapter 559: Chapter 559: A Divine Spirit’s Diary

The instant the Blood Demon’s finger touched the liquid in the White Jade Holy Pool, it collapsed to the ground, devoid of life.

Shu Feng frowned slightly. He summoned another Blood Demon Warrior, had it drag the corpse over, and tossed it into the Flesh Melting Furnace in his Base Space for decomposition and analysis.

Light flashed within the Central Analyzer, and a line of information quickly appeared: "The liquid in the pool is a potent poison. Based on analysis, it is capable of killing Divine Spirits."

Shu Feng asked with curiosity, "Can it kill me?"

Shu Feng possessed the Highly Poisonous Absorption Evolving Physique; any potent poison he consumed would become nutrients for his evolution. However, he was well aware that this Constitution had its limits.

In the Void Demon Realm, even great figures at the Demon God Level had been poisoned to death. Shu Feng knew he stood no chance against such terrifyingly potent toxins.

"A dose of 10 grams or less will not be fatal to the Host. A dose of 11 grams will result in certain death. The Host’s current Highly Poisonous Absorption Physique is insufficient to absorb and neutralize this poison. One unit of High-level Source Energy must be consumed to refine it."

’I see. This is quite a rare treasure.’

Shu Feng’s eyes lit up. He immediately summoned nearly a hundred Blood Demon Warriors. Holding Crystal Vessels, they approached the White Jade Holy Pool and began collecting its water.

After completely emptying the White Jade Holy Pool, Shu Feng had the Blood Demon Warriors resume their role as cannon fodder and continue exploring the Mountain of Skeletons.

’That Mountain of Skeletons is piled high with innumerable Divine Demon Remains. It would be fantastic if a Divine Artifact or two were left behind.’

Shu Feng did indeed find many Divine Artifact fragments among the heap of Divine Demon Remains. However, the vast majority of them had been corroded by a Mysterious Power, losing their Divinity and all Extraordinary Power, and were now nothing more than scrap metal.

The Divine Lotus nurtured within the White Jade Holy Pool was clearly a peerless treasure, formed from the flesh-and-blood essence of countless Divine Spirits and the Extraordinary Power of various Divine Artifacts.

Suddenly, a Blood Demon Warrior’s Essence Blood was drained in an instant, and its body, now a desiccated husk, fell to the ground.

A shattered black crystal shot out from the pile of bones, erupting with a dazzling light.

"July 2nd, 3,789,006,783 of the Ju Yu True Demon Calendar. His Majesty the Demon God bestowed upon me a Jade Lotus Divine Fruit..."

"August 2nd, 3,789,006,783 of the Ju Yu True Demon Calendar. Her Highness Princess Anlebuna is so beautiful. She might have a chance to become the third powerhouse in our kingdom to reach the Demon God Realm!"

"..."

The shattered black crystal seemed to be a diary, recording the daily life of a Divine-level Powerhouse from this Golden Ancient City.

"They’re here!! Dammit, those bastards have finally attacked!! How are they so strong? A mere Demigod can slay a King Realm powerhouse? Could that terrifying legend actually be true...?"

The light from the shattered black crystal abruptly dimmed, then the crystal itself collapsed, breaking into countless fragments that scattered in every direction.

’Ju Yu True Demon Calendar... that means there’s a True Demon in the Void Demon Realm named Ju Yu! The former City Lord of this Golden Ancient City was a Demon God Level powerhouse, a top-tier figure even in the Void Demon Realm. But he got taken out, and the Golden Ancient City fell from the Void Demon Realm to this place.’

’Who exactly were the enemies of the Golden Ancient City? And why did that Divine-level Powerhouse sound so surprised? A Demigod slaying a Divine-level Powerhouse... a prodigy that heaven-defying should be exceedingly rare, even in the Void Demon Realm.’

’Insufficient intel! I can’t make a judgment!’

At Shu Feng’s command, the Blood Demon Warriors continued to rummage through the pile of Divine Demon Remains.

Suddenly, Shu Feng’s Spiritual Sense flared. He could feel a great terror awakening deep within the Golden Ancient City.

Without a moment’s hesitation, Shu Feng activated a Secret Technique, the Dark Night Lord Demon Realm. His presence vanished as he shot madly toward the outskirts of the Golden Ancient City.

The several hundred Blood Demon Warriors scattered, fleeing in all directions.

RUMBLE! RUMBLE! RUMBLE!

The entire Golden Ancient City was suddenly rocked by a terrifying series of tremors. From its deepest reaches, amidst thick clouds of fog, a horrifying Giant emerged. It stood a hundred meters tall, its head severed and its chest pierced through. Clad in Golden Battle Armor and holding a battle halberd, its body was covered in black blood as it walked forward.

"No!!"

The moment one Blood Demon Warrior laid eyes on the terrifying Giant in its Golden Battle Armor, it let out an utterly horrified shriek before its body exploded, scattering into a pile of fragments on the ground.

Then, in a bizarre and sudden fashion, the bodies of the several hundred Blood Demon Warriors exploded, becoming mangled corpses strewn across the land.

Shu Feng was fleeing at top speed when suddenly, his heart began to pound erratically. He felt a wave of agitation as his aura destabilized, nearly revealing his position.

BANG!!

Inside the Base Space, a Dragon Hunting Dog instantly exploded into smithereens.

BANG!! BANG!! BANG!!

It was as if a chain reaction of death had been triggered. Every two breaths, another Dragon Hunting Dog would explode within the Base Space. Each one represented another one of Shu Feng’s deaths.

By the time the twentieth Dragon Hunting Dog had exploded, Shu Feng shot out of the Golden Ancient City like a bolt of lightning, fleeing frantically into the distance without a single glance back.

’Its pressure alone was enough to kill me that many times. That’s the corpse of a Demon God Level powerhouse!! A Demon God Level pressure!! Demon God Level powerhouses are truly terrifying, as expected of the great figures of the Void Demon Realm!!’

As Shu Feng fled, his mind was a turbulent sea of shock.

The Void Demon Realm was filled with powerhouses as numerous as the clouds. Ordinary Void Demon Kings were all Divine Level powerhouses, and even they could only dominate a single region. The Demon God Level powerhouses, however, were terrifying existences that stood above the many Void Demon Kings, their lifespans measured in hundreds of millions of years.

A single, stray wisp of terrifying power leaking from the corpse of that Demon God Level powerhouse could have easily annihilated Shu Feng.

Suddenly, clouds of golden mist began to rise from the Golden Ancient City. The next moment, the mysterious and unpredictable city vanished from Shu Feng’s sight.

’It’s gone?’

Shu Feng stared at the spot where the Golden Ancient City had vanished, a strange glint in his eyes.

Some powerful Divine Spirit Level ruins moved constantly over time, and the Golden Ancient City was clearly one of these bizarre, mobile sites. Once it moved, there was no telling where it might reappear.

These mobile ruins were also a source of great danger within the Erosion Realm. Many who accidentally entered such bizarre sites met with a dead end.

The corners of Shu Feng’s mouth curled into a slight smile. "My haul this time was quite substantial. The Liszt Clan really are such selfless, good people. I hope I run into more good people like them!"
