Chapter 360 - 133: Level 2 Divine Dragon, Peak

Deep in the wilds outside Qing City.

Chen Yu descended from the sky, landing on a patch of grass.

Sitting cross-legged, Chen Yu fully activated his Life Force Field to merge with the Life Light Groups inside his body.

The Life Force contained within the Life Light Groups from a million alien beasts, in addition to those from several Ninth-level individuals, had reached a terrifying level.

The instant it was unsealed, Chen Yu felt an infinite power surging within his body.

The immense Life Force, vast as a sea of stars, flooded his entire being.

Even with his current capacity for absorption, Chen Yu felt like he was being stretched to the breaking point.

It was as if a bomb of pure life energy was ticking inside him, ready to detonate at any moment.

Time ticked by.

As he continued to absorb it, his Life Force skyrocketed. Fortunately, his Life Force Field concealed his Life Fluctuations. Otherwise, such a powerful surge would have been detectable by Martial Artists and alien beasts from hundreds of miles away.

...

In a villa in Jingzhou, two figures watched an image on a virtual screen.

One of them was none other than the dean of Jingzhou Academy.

Watching the screen, a brilliant smile spread across the dean’s face as he turned his gaze to the middle-aged man beside him.

"Well? The matter is resolved. He even took care of the alien beast crisis in Qing City and killed several titans of the Holy Spirit Race. I imagine you have nothing left to say now, do you?"

The middle-aged man stared at the screen, silent for a long moment before finally speaking. "You win. I concede."

With that, he took out a pouch and handed it to the dean.

The dean took the pouch, weighed it in his hand, and a wide grin spread across his face. "Don’t worry about it. You can win it back next time."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man shot him a look before turning his gaze back to the virtual screen. After a moment of silence, he asked, "This person... can I have him?"

"You want him?" The dean looked at the middle-aged man, stunned.

The middle-aged man nodded. "Yes. This person has immense potential."

The dean chuckled. "Then you’re barking up the wrong tree. He’s already affiliated with the Divine Hall. Although he’s not an official member yet, he’s on the assessment list. So you can forget about it."

"He’s already on the Divine Hall’s assessment list?" the middle-aged man asked, looking at the dean in surprise.

The dean nodded. "That’s right. He’s on the Divine Hall’s assessment list."

"What a shame..." The middle-aged man sighed heavily.

The dean rolled his eyes. "A shame? What’s there to be ashamed of? Can the future he’d have with you even compare to what he’ll achieve at the Divine Hall?"

The middle-aged man: "..."

’This smug bastard...’

The middle-aged man’s eye twitched as he looked at the dean.

"Alright, I should be heading back. He’ll probably be home soon," the dean said, rising to his feet and leaving the villa.

The middle-aged man watched the dean’s departing figure, then stared at the screen in silence for a long time. In the end, a heavy sigh echoed through the living room.

...

Dawn broke.

As the first rays of dawn pierced the darkness, Chen Yu slowly opened his eyes.

It had taken him nearly a full day to merge all the Life Light Groups.

His Life Force had undergone a qualitative leap.

His Life Force was so vast that even a Ninth-level Martial Artist would sense its immense power.

As his immense Life Force surged, the very air seemed to hum and resonate.

If he were to unleash the Life Force within him, the powerful light it emitted could illuminate the land for thousands of miles.

Among Ninth-level Martial Artists, his Life Force had reached the undisputed peak.

Even the Life Force of Nangong Ba, a man he once feared, was far inferior to his own now.

Of course, others could improve as well, but his progress was simply astounding.

Getting to his feet, Chen Yu’s gaze fell upon a large mountain a few miles away.

HUMMM—!

His terrifying Spiritual Power flared, instantly blanketing the entire mountain.

Under the weight of his Spiritual Power, it felt as though the entire mountain could be ripped up from its very roots.

In the end, however, Chen Yu restrained himself.

’With the Spiritual Power I’ve gained from this boost in Life Force, moving a mountain is no problem at all.’

Chen Yu thought to himself as he retracted his Spiritual Power.

Moving mountains and parting seas with pure Spiritual Power.

This was a feat that even peak Ninth-level Martial Artists would struggle to accomplish.

Only a top-tier Ninth-level Spiritual Ability User could manage such a thing.

Although Chen Yu didn’t have a Mental Superpower, his Spiritual Power was even greater than that of a top-tier Spiritual Ability User.

Such immense Spiritual Power was enough to tear anything apart with ease.

At a certain level, it wouldn’t even be a problem to shake an entire world with Spiritual Power.

However, that level of Spiritual Power was likely something only those at the True God Level could achieve.

The difference between moving a mountain and moving a world was, after all, immense.

"10.9 billion..."

"Not bad at all!"

"I’ve finally broken the ten billion mark."

Chen Yu was in high spirits as he looked at his Source of Life.

He had reached the ten-billion level with his Source of Life in just a few short days.

However, this was also due to a confluence of several fortunate coincidences.

Without the two top-tier targets from the Heterodox Sect and the recent beast tide, achieving this goal would have been virtually impossible.

’I should probably upgrade my Divine Dragon Power. That move is incredibly powerful!’

After some thought, Chen Yu decided to upgrade his Divine Dragon Power.

The move was practically invincible.

It could kill a Ninth-level Martial Artist of the Alien Race in a single blow. If he upgraded it again, even though the consumption would increase significantly, his current Life Force was more than enough to sustain its explosive power.
