Chapter 329: Defeating The Prefecture Master, Replacement
“Dodola’s divine spirit is too strong, far superior to any Great Demon Gods or higher deities!” Meng Lei had great emotions.
Speaking of which, Meng Lei was most familiar with Dodola. Υet, Meng Lei’s knowledge of Dodola was limited as he only knew that it was powerful. As for how powerful it was, it was still a mystery.
For now, however, Meng Lei could sense that Dodola should be at least a mid-level higher deity, possibly even a high-level higher deity!
How powerful!
Time flew by quickly as a day went by. Dodola showed no signs of waking up, and Meng Lei had no choice but to continue waiting.
One day, two days, three days...
On the other hand, Meng Lei’s true body did not idle after he received the tributes from the spatial rings and treasures plundered from the demon tribes. His assets had burgeoned once again.
Wealth: 49.57 million Divinity Crystals
An increase in wealth meant another round of spending as Meng Lei chose to strengthen his divine spirit. His divine spirit was only at pinnacle intermediate deity-level with obvious weaknesses.
Enhancement cost: 4 million Divinity Crystals
Meng Lei did not hesitate and chose to enhance.
Whoosh!
As the order was relayed, Meng Lei’s divine spirit flame burned madly as if gasoline was poured into it, and its intensity soared by multiple times...
The divine spirit started to enhance insanely!
After it was over, Meng Lei felt that the world before him had changed.
The laws of nature that traversed the entire world and the laws of nature’s origins hidden deep within the existential plane had undergone a tremendous change.
Even without the help of Power of Existential Plane, his divine cognition could now spread out hundreds of thousands of miles to envelop the entire Light Continent.
The divine spirit was so much more powerful than before!
“A higher deity-level divine body plus a higher deity-level divine spirit, now I’m finally an actual higher deity!” Meng Lei sighed.
“One word—satisfying!”
“System, continue the Super Pickup!”
Meng Lei was now eyeing covetously on the Dark Hell Continent and hoped to pick up some treasure he could use now through Super Pickup.
“Ding! Dear host, please designate your target existential plane.”
After a moment of contemplation, Meng Lei answered, “The Netherworld!”
“Ding! Pickup successful. You have obtained a Crystallized Divine Spirit Extract!”
“Crystallized Divine Spirit Extract? There isn’t much use for me right now, though I can give it to Ol’ Amos or grant it to Puhaman and the rest!”
“Ding! Pickup successful. You have obtained a higher deity’s Demonic Core. Will you assimilate it?”
“No, don’t assimilate it.”
“Ding! Pickup successful. You have obtained a Fallen Angel’s carcass.”
“A Fallen Angel’s carcass?”
A 1,000-feet-tall Fallen Angel’s carcass shrouded in billowing black mist and emitting dark aura appeared with a mere thought.
These were not that significant as what made Meng Lei astounded was that this Fallen Angel had one, two, three, four...
Four pairs of wings!
“Eight-Winged Fallen Angel! An Eight-Winged Fallen Angel of a higher deity level!
“I’ve struck it big! I’ve landed a huge one this time!”
Meng Lei’s eyes lit up brightly. With this Fallen Angel carcass, he could create another Great Demon God-level alternate incarnation.
“Meng Lei, this is a Fallen Angel?”
Ol’ Amos and Amolin were stunned as they looked at the carcass in disbelief.
“Yep! A Fallen Angel!”
Meng Lei smiled and nodded as he started to refine this carcass. Compared to the Abyss Skeletal Dragon alternate incarnation that had a damaged skull, this Fallen Angel carcass was more complete—except for a bloody hole at the forehead, which showed how it had died.
Two days later, Meng Lei successfully created the Fallen Angel alternate incarnation. He flapped the four pairs of wings and soared up in the sky. Dark elements from within thousands of miles gathered and combined into a huge black longsword with a thought.
“Slash!”
Meng Lei yelled as he swung the sword in the air, and it slashed open a pitch-black bottomless canyon that spanned into the horizon.
“Hahaha! That’s great!”
Meng Lei laughed and controlled the Fallen Angel alternate incarnation to enter the space-time rift so it could assist the matters in Dark Hell Continent.
“System, continue with the pickups!”
“Ding! Pickup successful. You have obtained a Spirit Core. Will you assimilate it?”
“...”
“Ding! Pickup successful. You have obtained a Laws of Nature Fragment. Will you assimilate it?”
“Yes, assimilate it!”
“Earth, Water, Metal... Triple-elemental Fusion Laws of Nature Fragment!”
“Ding! Pickup successful. You have obtained a Dead Soul Moss.”
“Ding! Pickup successful. You have obtained a Hell Mirage Fox carcass.”
“Ding...”
“Ding! Pickup successful. You have obtained an Underworld Bone Spear.”
“Underworld Bone Spear?”
Meng Lei had a thought, and a bone spear gleaming with a chilly glint appeared, while its surface gave off a baleful and dead aura.
“This bone spear should be harder than my Abyss Skeletal Dragon alternate incarnation. It must be a high-tier demonic weapon. That’s some good stuff. Keep it first!”
“...”
“Ding! Pickup successful. You have obtained a Grim Reaper’s cloak.”
“...”
“Ding! Pickup successful. You have obtained a Specter Orb. Will you assimilate it?”
“Specter Orb?”
Meng Lei let out a soft sound of surprise as a grayish orb appeared in his palm. It emitted an aura of death and divine spirit waves. An indistinct look flashed across his eyes.
The vast and boundless universe had nurtured countless lifeforms.
Different lifeforms required different lifestyles. Some were flesh-and-blood beings, others were energy beings, and then there were the shadow beings.
The Specter was a form of shadow beings. They had no physical form while they came and went without a trace, much similar to ghosts.
Although Specters had no physical form, they had the Specter Orb, which was their core of life and their divine spirit core at the same time. In other words, the source of their powers.
Hence, the Specter Orb equated to a Specter’s body.
“This might... must be a Great Demon God-level Specter’s orb!”
Meng Lei’s eyes flashed brightly. “If I refine this Specter Orb, does that mean that I can get a Specter alternate incarnation?
“Let me test it out!”
After three days, it was a success as Meng Lei obtained a Specter alternate incarnation.
When he was controlling the alternate incarnation, it moved like the shadows in the dark. Ol’ Amos and Amolin were entirely unaware of his presence.
“It’s great stuff!”
Meng Lei was in a superb mood as he sent the Specter alternate incarnation to Dark Hell Continent.
At this point, Ol’ Amos became rather impatient. “Meng Lei, you all have been in Dark Hell Continent for almost half the month. There’s still no news?”
“Not yet.” Meng Lei shook his head. “Dodola is still searching for the Heart of The Existential Plane there. Since I haven’t heard from Dodola till now, I think they have not found it yet.”
“A mid-end existential plane’s Heart of The Existential Plane could be that hard to find?” Ol’ Amos found it hard to understand.
“It’s not any ordinary difficulty...”
Meng Lei was about to say something before he paused, and expressions of joy appeared.
“Found it! Hahaha, Dodola has found Dark Hell Continent’s Heart of The Existential Plane!”
“Found it?”
A jolt went through Ol’ Amos’ body.
...
“I’ve found it! I’ve found it!” Dodola shouted excitedly. “Meng Lei, if I’m not wrong, no one has refined the Heart of The Existential Plane here yet!”
“So it’s really unowned!” Meng Lei was delirious with joy. “That’s awesome! There’s hope! There’s hope now! Hahaha, it’s the Chief God of Existential Planes. I’m about to become one!”
“Meng Lei, here’s your chance!”
Dodola looked at Meng Lei and said earnestly, “I can only help you so much. Whether you can refine this Heart of The Existential Plane to become the Chief God of Existential Planes is all up to you now!”
“Relax! As long as there is no master of this existential plane, I have no fear.” Meng Lei nodded his head heavily. “Dark Hell Continent’s master of the existential plane will be me!”
“Then I’ll wish you success!”
Dodola was rather pleased and asked, “What’s your next step?”
Meng Lei took a deep breath as a glint flashed across his eyes. “Plunder more wealth and enhance myself as much as possible. The day that I can suppress Dark Hell Continent will be the day I refine the Heart of The Existential Plane!”
Dodola frowned as it was puzzled. “I still don’t understand this. What’s the link between you strengthening yourself and looting for more wealth?”
“Haha, that’s a secret!”
In the Demon Ravine...
“Meng Lei, so Dark Hell Continent is currently unowned?”
“Dodola has confirmed that Dark Hell Continent’s Heart of The Existential Plane has not been refined by anyone yet. So yes, it is unowned.”
“Such a huge mid-level existential plane with no master? How unbelievable!” Ol’ Amos was astonished. “Then once you refine this Heart of The Existential Plane, how strong will you become with that Power of Existential Plane?”
“Powerful enough to fight against a Chief God!”
Meng Lei took a deep breath and continued. “Ol’ Amos, I’m going to Dark Hell Continent to seize the Heart of The Existential Plane with all my might. I’m entrusting Heaven’s Vault Continent with you!”
“You need not worry and leave it to me.”
...
Meng Lei went through the space-time rift at once and arrived in Dark Hell Continent. He kept the three alternate incarnations and embarked on a journey of plunder.
“The Ice Demon Prefecture is the closest, so that shall be my first stop!
“I’ll defeat Ice Demon Prefecture’s master and become their new master. Of course, the treasury there will be empty soon!”
“Take it easy, Meng Lei. The master of the Ice Demon Prefecture is a mid-level Great Demon God. It’ll be really tough to defeat it!”
“Only then it’ll be challenging, am I right?”
Both Meng Lei and Dodola teased each other as they traveled.
Of course, Meng Lei did not forget to pilfer the demon tribes for looting on the way.
For some time, his wealth kept increasing. Meng Lei was all smiles—at this growth rate, he would be able to save up enough money to enhance his divine body.
After three days, an enormous towering city appeared before their eyes. The majestic city walls were so high as a cliff that they would make one stay away with one look of it.
There were plenty of city gates. They had the appearance of a devil’s huge wide-opened mouth, devouring the demons going in and out of the city.
“Dodola, this is the Ice Demon City.” Meng Lei took a deep breath and continued. “This city has a rigid class system while the Prefecture Master is the highest status of the entire city.
“Below him are the loyal Ice Demon Prefecture Guards, all of whom are the minions of the master. Even the various Great Demon Gods living in the city won’t dare to mess with them.
“But today... Hehe! I’m going to defeat the Prefecture Master and destroy his guards, looting everything there is in the treasury!”
Things were as usual at Ice Demon City, but no one knew that two devils had arrived—an incoming turmoil that would soon consume the city was about to erupt!
