Sage Monarch - Chapter 765

Chapter 765: 765

“So, a Golden Lokapāla One,” Yang Qi said . “That’s quite a powerful constitution . I had no idea there were buddhist disciples among you seventy-two brethren . ” After looking for a moment at this young patriarch who could stand up to the torment of hell, Yang Qi reached out and tapped his forehead .

Crack! Snap!

The patriarch’s energy arts were wiped out of existence and the golden glow which had surrounded him vanished . A moment later, he was squealing in pain .

“You destroyed my energy arts?! You took away my Lokapāla Prajñā Safeguard Technique? Mercy! Please, don’t beat me . Spare me!”

The Golden Lokapāla One couldn’t handle the pain now, and immediately began begging Yang Qi for mercy . He was completely and utterly subdued .

Yang Qi sent sagelight into him, making him the last of the group to convert and become a believer .

RUMBLE!

All seventy-one of the patriarchs now exercised faith in Yang Qi . As a result, a vortex of faith appeared around Yang Qi’s immortal-slaying clone, invincible flows of energy and destiny that poured endlessly into him .

“Defy heaven . Slay immortals… . ”

Crack . Crunch .

Energy surged in the clone, whose cultivation base began climbing in shocking fashion .

‘What exactly is happening?’ Yang Qi thought . Within his mind, he could see everything that was happening with his clone in the Heaven Beyond Heaven . And even he was completely taken aback .

The clone howled as an immense tempest built up around him, the power levels surging in such an incredible fashion that not even he could absorb them easily .

WHOOSH!

All of a sudden, Yang Qi sensed the four of King Immortal-Slayer’s legacy medallions that he had flying out of his control . They entered the Myriad Worlds Monarch Chart, then popped out in the vicinity of his clone, where they began belching massive amounts of energy onto him .

‘Such majestic power . Such incredible destiny!’ Yang Qi was completely shocked .

He was aware that the medallions had immense destiny in them; after all, their main function was to store the destiny of those who died with the medallions in their possession . Now that the destiny was coming out into the open, it almost seemed like something that had belonged to a god .

The destiny of gods was completely different from the destiny of humans, and surpassed it in just about every way imaginable . In fact, it even surpassed the level of the true godhood Yang Qi had acquired by many times over .

“Incarnated God level!”

POP!

The destiny from the medallions flowed into the immortal-slaying clone, causing his power to increase rapidly as he broke into a higher cultivation level .

Shockingly, after that, he still had momentum for further breakthroughs . There was energy flowing through him that Yang Qi’s true self couldn’t benefit from; it was godpower from King Immortal-Slayer himself .

‘So incredible!’ Yang Qi thought . After breaking through to the third division, the clone continued, and before long he was a fourth division Shattered God . Even still, Yang Qi wasn’t sure what exactly was happening, or why the faith of the seventy-one patriarchs would produce a result like this .

But then something clicked in his mind, and he realized what was happening .

‘That’s right! The seventy-two patriarchs themselves have immense destiny . Young Master Leaf wanted to emulate the original seventy-two brethren, including King Immortal-Slayer himself . That’s why he gathered these seventy-one patriarchs to begin with . And he helped them develop incredible abilities and collect special magical treasures that were connected to them by destiny . Eventually, he would have demanded faith from them and taken their destiny for his own use . After forcing the seventy-one of them to be believers in him, he could have awoken the true majestic power of King Immortal-Slayer . Now, all of his work is pushing my immortal-slaying clone to an incredibly high level . ’

All of a sudden, he realized what precious treasures these seventy-one individuals were .

Before, the immortal-slaying clone had been unsure of how many months or years it might take to achieve any significant progress . But now he was advancing by leaps and bounds . Normally speaking, increases like this would involve thousands, or even millions of years of cultivation for ordinary people .

At the current rate, it seemed like reaching the Chaos God level might even soon be possible .

Yang Qi burst out into hearty laughter . ‘Now all I need to do is add Young Master Leaf to the mix . With his destiny, my immortal-slaying clone will likely be able to reach the Deathless Throne . And at that point, I can easily build the full collection of all nine of King Immortal-Slayer’s legacy medallions . That, in turn, would unlock the full potential of the Myriad Worlds Monarch Chart . I have a feeling that there’s immense power lurking in the profound depths of the chart . I can’t get to it right now, but I could if I recover the full will of King Immortal-Slayer . ’

At the moment, not even true godhood would be enough for Yang Qi to become a true god . Stepping from the Chaos God level to the Deathless Throne required unimaginable levels of power .

His requirements were so incredible that not even a thousand bits of true godhood like he had would be enough . Probably not even the god Brahma’s godhood would suffice .

However, if he could recover the power of King Immortal-Slayer, things might be different . That could be the foundation he needed for godly ascension . After all, King Immortal-Slayer had been a Paramount God, second only to the Sovereign Lord .

Yang Qi’s Wheel of Fate seemed to thrum with delight, as though it were cheering for his thought process . Of course, he also knew that it would be a dangerous undertaking . After all, King Immortal-Slayer was an invincible and mighty entity, and his will would do everything possible to absorb Yang Qi .

The more Yang Qi learned about King Immortal-Slayer's legacy medallions, the more he was convinced that King Immortal-Slayer wasn’t actually dead . He was most likely laying at rest in some aspect of space-time, waiting for the right moment, the right convergence of fate, and the right dao to come along . If that happened, he would awaken, shatter the great heaven above, proclaim himself the ruler of the universe, and become the new Sovereign Lord .

Seeing the thoughtful look on Yang Qi’s face, Green Merchant said, “Milord, Milord! The seventy-one of us are ready to take any orders . Whatever you ask us to do, we’ll do!”

“Good,” Yang Qi replied coolly . “For now, stay in the Tusita Heaven and maintain contact with Young Master Leaf . Keep him off guard, and notify me as soon as he's out of seclusion . He’s my greatest enemy at the moment, and for all intents and purposes he’s like a weaker version of King Immortal-Slayer . I need to kill him to awaken the power of King Immortal-Slayer . Under no circumstances are you to allow him to realize what’s happened here . We need to lure him out of the Tusita Heaven . In here, he’s too strong and will be virtually impossible to kill . Oh, another thing . Try to stir up as much trouble as you can between the Tusita Dynasty and the God Dragon Tribe . I want the God Dragon Tribe destroyed!

“Now, brace yourselves as I cleanse all seventy-one of you and heal any hidden cultivation injuries you have . Don’t worry, before long, all of you will be Buddha Gods, and together you will probably be a match for even Young Master Leaf . ”

“Many thanks, Milord!”

All seventy-one of the patriarchs dropped to their knees and kowtowed . In the past, this group would only do such a thing for Young Master Leaf . But Yang Qi had turned everything around . Young Master Leaf was now a general with no troops under his command, and it would only be a matter of time before he came out of seclusion and found, to his utter shock, that his own brethren were conspiring against him .

Young Master Leaf believed himself to be invincible and unparalleled under heaven, and a person who maintained control of all situations . But now, Yang Qi was truly proving to be his archenemy .

As Yang Qi healed and cleansed the seventy-one patriarchs, their energy arts advanced and their hidden potential was unlocked .

“Give me fresh blood!” he said . He flicked his finger, and a drop of blood appeared from the foreheads of all seventy-one patriarchs . The blood flew over to his hand, filled with all sorts of unique energies . He combined the drops into a single blood śarīra, which he then absorbed into himself .

That blood contained the special constitutions of all seventy-one of the patriarchs . At first, their energies were in conflict, but Yang Qi was able to neutralize those effects with the God Legion Seal . Before long, the power of all those constitution types was flowing through him .

Yang Qi had long since cultivated the Physique of the Sovereign Lord, a body type connected to the actual Sovereign Lord that could accommodate all types of constitutions . In fact, to cultivate the Physique of the Sovereign Lord to the ultimate level, he would need to combine all three thousand of the unique constitutions .

‘General Samman is going to be arriving through that passageway soon . I definitely need to set a trap to kill him . Having vivicreation systems in my fragment of the Cruiser of Civilization will be a huge benefit . With enough power, I can use them to do all sorts of incredible things—for example, analyze the seventy-one constitutions I just acquired and produce more unique constitution blood . ’

Supposedly, the Lord of Civilization, who was a Paramount God, built the Cruiser of Civilization with science and technology from many planes of existence . With even a single drop of blood, it could completely replicate any type of constitution!
