Chapter 586 - Titan

Yang Qi was absorbing the very same energy that had been absorbed by an ancient god. And as the deathless godliness flowed into him, his Blood of the One God grew stronger. Titan had been particularly powerful among the ancient legion of gods and was known for raw power.

Because of that, as Yang Qi went through his breathing exercises, his internal pellet grew stronger.

‘What a mysterious place,’ he thought. ‘It’s so full of killing intent!’ Not even he was able to fully cast his divine will into the godrelic. But he could sense that there were many areas protected by deadly immortal formations that could kill any expert who tried to break into them.

The location he was currently in was one of relative calm and peace. However, moving outside of that area would be very dangerous.

‘Mechas? Battleships?’

All of a sudden, Yang Qi’s divine will encountered an area where numerous treasured items were stored. There were even mechas immersed in what seemed like the liquefied aura of Titan, which was being used to strengthen them. Apparently, this place also served as a storehouse for the imperial dynasty.

This godrelic was obviously one of the most important locations for the Titan Emperor Heaven.

Originally, Yang Qi had hoped to pass his tribulation in here, but now he realized that probably wasn’t a good idea.

What if the tribulation actually destroyed the godrelic or the things in it? Furthermore, what if he somehow provoked an unexpected, dangerous reaction? Therefore, he decided to spend the seven days of cultivation here perfecting his internal pellet, which would make it much easier to pass his tribulation when the time came.

‘What's this?’

After looking at some of the locations packed with treasure, he sent his divine will deeper into the Kingdom of Titan and found a place where the Titan energy grew so strong it began to liquefy.

There, within the depths of the ancient godrelic, was a planet-sized sphere floating within the energy flows. It appeared to be made of liquid, a manifestation of some strange sort of power that radiated the aura of Titan.

It also pulsed with immense deathless godliness.

‘That's the blood of a god! I can’t believe they have a drop of Titan’s blood in here. Eternal deathlessness the size of a planet, and no one has ever assimilated it. Ah, what a pity. And what a waste for this clan to have such an incredible treasure. If I had that blood, I could truly use it in heaven-defying fashion. Apparently, not even the emperor has what it takes to assimilate it. Someone who did would definitely break into the Godmyth level. After all, even the effects of that jade blood mother got in the Hell of Gloom and Darkness were indescribable.’

This was the true foundation of the godrelic, and the foundation of the Titan Emperor Heaven itself.

Yang Qi could sense that the blood had the immortal world’s essence locked down. Without the blood to restrict its flow, it would be much easier for certain almighty entities to leech off the essence.

‘I can’t get the full essence of this immortal world right now,’ he thought. ‘Titan’s blood has it locked down. Without assimilating that blood, trying to take the essence would be as effective as throwing a cup of water on a burning cart of firewood. Although I can get a bit with my imperial snakecharms, it’s not enough to truly shake the foundation of this immortal world. Time to make some more Heaven-Devouring śarīras!’

Drawing on the power of King Heaven-Devourer’s talismans, he summoned a primal-chaos elder-snake, which he then fused with. Then, numerous black holes sprang up inside him, which began madly devouring the Titan energy in the area.

The power levels were immense, and the flows were so strong that he actually felt the immortal world essence stirring deep in the godrelic. Here, he was able to make Heaven-Devouring śarīras much, much faster than he could in the outside world!

WHIZZZ!

A fist-sized Heaven-Devouring śarīra appeared within his sea of energy, glittering brightly.

Then another, and another, like numerous suns.

At the same time, he used the essence of the Hell of Mahānata, Hell of Gloom and Darkness, and Tusita Heaven to temper his internal pellet.

Gradually, he was able to form the Heaven-Devouring śarīras into a Heaven-Devouring Grand Formation. It was something he had picked up from the one-fourth of the Heaven-Devouring Good-Fortune Non-Existent-Gods Dao energy art he had acquired.

The more śarīras he made, the stronger that formation would be.

Later, when he faced his breakthrough tribulation, he could situate himself within that Heaven-Devouring Grand Formation, and any who sought to disturb him by entering it would find their cultivation base weakening until they dropped dead.

Time passed, although he wasn't sure how much.

Thanks to his hard work, he soon had a total of three hundred and sixty śarīras in his internal pellet, which could be used to make a very powerful Heaven-Devouring Grand Formation.

Even more amazing, his Blood of the One God had grown stronger, being at the level of eleven ten-thousandths.

His eyes sparkled brightly at the realization that he had made some major advancement, even with his Glad Tidings of the Lord.

This session of cultivation had been very beneficial.

Eventually, everything began to spin and distort as he was slowly extracted from the Kingdom of Titan and relocated to the outside world. Seven days had passed and he was automatically teleported out of the godrelic.

As for his target destination, it was somewhere in Princess Jadefall’s mansion.

Princess Jadefall was all smiles as she stood there, flanked by a few administrators from the Department of Internal Affairs. As soon as she laid eyes on Yang Qi, she said, “Titan Dragonguard, your commission has arrived. The sovereign of heaven has issued a decree!”

“Imperial clansman Titan Dragonguard, ready to accept my commission!” Yang Qi said, dropping to his knees and plastering a solemn expression onto his face.

One of the administrators stepped forward and said, “His Imperial Majesty has decreed that Titan Dragonguard, whose imperial blood runs strong and whose cultivation base is particularly high, has distinguished himself as a top expert and will henceforth serve as the Marquis of Military Security. In addition to the title, he will be given command of ten divisions and will accompany Princess Jadefall on a campaign to conquer the Hanging Heaven.”
