Chapter 1437: Divine Power from the Thousand Realms Whirling Avatar; Activating the Upper Limit
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
30,000 years were not a small number.
The Pillar of Impermanence had been in the ruins of Transient City for tens of thousands of years, but it had only accumulated about 100,000 years of life. However, just the battle with the Void Chest tribe alone gave it 30,000 years of life. Naturally, there was some loss as well, which was only normal.
In comparison, the Green Cicada Jade, a sacred relic, could only store 10,000 years of life.
“Not bad.”
Lu Zhou had gained a lot in the past half a year.
Previously, Lu Zhou had picked out a few suitable life hearts and stored them in the Vast Sky Bag. Now was the right time to use them. However, after thinking about it, he decided to start with his blue avatar first.
After becoming a Great Venerable Master, he could keenly feel that the amount of divine power he had was no longer enough. The blue avatar was only a Seven Leaf Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar now, which was far from enough. If he had a blue Thousand Realms Whirling avatar, perhaps, he would
have an endless supply of divine power. With that, he would not have to be so passive.
Lu Zhou waved his hand and manifested the blue avatar.
The seven leaves around the blue lotus were as dazzling as the sky.
“Upgrade.”
Lu Zhou moved the blue avatar closer to the Pillar of Impermanence.
As the blue ring of light fell from the avatar, life force surged up from the ground into the blue avatar.
Lu Zhou nodded in satisfaction as he watched the blue avatar enter the process of being upgraded. With his experience, it was easy to sprout another leaf.
Then, he called up the system interface to have a look.
Remaining lifespan: 13,647,389 (37,390 years)
He had about 30,000 years from the Pillar of Impermanence. It was more than enough for a few upgrades without touching his lifespan.
Then, he looked at his merit points.
Merit points: 1,493,680
He had earned and spent a lot of merit points so there was not much change to his merit points. After becoming a Great Venerable Master, the number of merit points he could earn was getting smaller and smaller. Merit points from killing those below the stage of a Venerable Master were also
insufficient. He thought perhaps, he should focus on obtaining merit points through other people worshipping him.
‘Is this the meaning of ‘merit’?”
With this, he thought about the merit stone he had seen in the Scripture of Sermons.
“Could it be that the merit stone is a source of power?” Lu Zhou muttered to himself. It was a hard-to-believe deduction, but he thought it was possible. He continued thinking but could not figure it out.
He rose to his feet and paced back and forth. He looked around and smelled the trees, flowers, and plants in the dark and ancient forest. Although it was dark and cold all year round, everything in the Unknown Land was still filled with vitality. It was a fierce kind of tenacity that was stronger than
anything in the nine domains.
Lu Zhou sat down cross-legged again. After a moment, he heard a crips noise. He looked up and saw a new leaf on the lotus.
“The eighth leaf.” Lu Zhou was slightly moved. The sprouting of the eighth leaf was exceptionally smooth and was completed in less than the time it took to brew a pot of tea.
Lu Zhou looked at the leaves and nodded in satisfaction.
He was now a Great Venerable Master with 20 Birth Charts, but the blue avatar’s level was still very low and had a lot of room for improvement. However, just like a college student taking a primary school exam, it was very easy for him to upgrade it.
“Ding! Eight Leaf Hundred Tribulations Insight avatar. The next upgrade will cost 10,000 years of life.”
Fortunately, the lifespan needed to upgrade did not increase.
“Continue.”
Now that the Pillar of Impermanence had awakened its spirituality, he could now completely control it. Even if it had to give up all of its life force, it would not resist. However, there was no need to completely drain its life force.
Lu Zhou observed the blue avatar. The eighth leaf was important; it used to be the limit in the golden lotus domain, after all. However, it was really too weak compared to the Thousand Realms Whirling avatar.
Lu Zhou could clearly sense the life force in the Pillar of Impermanence decreasing, After the blue avatar had been upgraded, it was absorbing the life force much more swiftly than before.
After that, Lu Zhou closed his eyes and meditated on the Heavenly Writing while the blue avatar continued with its upgrade.
After meditating on the Heavenly Writing for half a day, he had already recovered all his divine power.
He opened his eyes and looked at the blue avatar. Perhaps, it was due to the psychological shadow of the past, he felt slightly nervous waiting for the ninth leaf.
Nonetheless, his worries were proved unfounded when he heard another crisp sound.
“Huh? It’s upgraded so quickly?” Lu Zhou frowned slightly. He felt uneasy again thinking about how it went too smoothly.
The height of the blue avatar had changed, and the lotus had grown bigger as well. Blue lightning bolts could be seen flashing around it as well.
“Ding! Nine Leaf Hundred Tribulations avatar. The next upgrade will cost 10,000 of life.”
Lu Zhou relaxed slightly as he looked at the ninth leaf. The limit had long been broken. Moreover, clearly, the blue avatar was not bound by the limit in the golden lotus domain.
“Continue!”
After sprouting the tenth leaf, he would activate a Birth Chart and turn the blue avatar into a Thousand Realms Whirling avatar. At that time, his divine power would surely increase greatly.
Swoosh!
The blue avatar began to spin, forming a vortex at the bottom of the lotus. The vortex greedily absorbed the life force from the Pillar of Impermanence as the blue avatar kept growing bigger and bigger like a tree.
Divine power kept surging out of his Dantian’s sea of Qi.
“The limit has increased!” Lu Zhou could sense the limit of the divine power he had at one time had increased greatly.
For three days and three nights, the blue avatar continued spinning, absorbing the life force from the Pillar of Impermanence.
With the effect of the Pillar of Impermanence, three days were equivalent to 300 days.
The spinning of the blue avatar grew slower and slower, and when it came to a stop, a crisp noise rang in the air. The tenth leaf had sprouted. It looked a little weak in the beginning, but in just a moment, it looked sharp and deadly.
“Tenth leaf…” Lu Zhou found it slightly hard to believe that he had easily sprouted the tenth leaf. He waved his hand, bringing the blue avatar close to him so he could have a better look. It was indeed the tenth leaf.
Subsequently, Lu Zhou brought out the life heart of Xi Qu, a beast king, from the Vast Sky Bag, He thought the blue avatar would not have any special abilities. Instead, it would increase basic attributes such as defense, attack power, and agility.
Lu Zhou tried to make the blue avatar jump.
Whoosh!
The blue avatar left the lotus and jumped several feet into the air. At the same time, the blue lotus turned translucent. When it returned to the lotus, the lotus appeared again.
“Energy sword.” Lu Zhou lifted his hand as an energy sword appeared between two of his fingers.
The blue avatar mimicked him, and a blue energy sword appeared between its fingers.
The synchronization between Lu Zhou and the avatar’s movements was very smooth.
Lu Zhou flicked his wrist.
Bang!
The energy swords flew out.
The golden energy swords flew for a long time without dissipating. On the other hand, the blue energy sword dissipated after flying for about 100 meters.
Lu Zhou nodded in satisfaction. This could be considered a great improvement.
Following that, Lu Zhou did not hesitate and placed the life heart on his lotus seat.
With that, 36 distinct zones for the Birth Charts lit up at once.
“The upper limit of the Birth Palace is fully activated?!”
