Chapter 278 - The Celestial New Power.
After leaving the Holy Septima world, Ling Chen and his group spent another twenty years traveling throughout the whole nameless Galaxy.
Over the past twenty years, they've visited over fifty small worlds similar to that of the Holy Septima world with low-level civilizations.
They were of all sorts of sizes. Some were as big as the Holy Septima world while others were twice its size and each one of them was filled with a myriad of interesting and unique races.
And just like they did in the first world, Ling Chen brought each one of these worlds to the brink of extinction and despair while the seven celestials magically came to the rescue like benevolent gods and saved them from the Evil God.
Though it was like a cliche move or tactic, it still worked every time like a charm. As such, they didn't even bother to change their tactic and used it in every world they have visited.
After religiously colonizing over fifty low-level civilization small worlds and removed all the inhabitants from their traditional belief systems, the seven celestial have gathered over ten billion followers and they were still growing with every passing year.
At this moment, whether it was Freya, Thalia, and the other celestials, they all have already broken through the 1st Life Transition Mortal Deity Rank, even before the little devils.
Unlike the little devils who needed to kill and absorb the blood and life essence of a 1st Life Transition being to break through the shackle of the peak Demi-God rank, the seven celestial only needed to absorb a large amount of good karmic energy and faith power to increase their strength which they were easily able to gather after religiously colonizing over fifty of small worlds.
Moreover, after breaking through the 1st Life Transition Mortal Deity rank, the seven celestial discovered that they could also steal and absorb a person's karmic energy and destiny to increase their strength just like the little devils.
Though it sounded like a great discovery, the seven celestials didn't use this power on the people in the low-level civilization worlds they've visited. They still preferred to create their own religion to gather faith power and karmic energy as it was more lucrative in the long term.
Furthermore, this power was just as lethal and deadly as the devouring power of the little devils. Though the victims would not immediately die after having their destiny and karmic energy robbed, their lifespans would reduce by more than half and they would also be plagued by bad luck and misfortune until they died.
Aside from that, not only all the seven celestials have broken through the 1st Life Transition Mortal Deity Rank, they've even created a group of Angelic Shura using Blood Godstone just like the little devils had created the Demonic Shura Legion.
However, unlike the little devils that only used demon beasts to create their legion of Demonic Shura, the celestial have used a variety of interesting and unique races from all the worlds they have visited. In fact, some of them even came from the Holy Septima World.
Aside from the celestial, even Ling Chen who was at the peak of the 1st Life Transition Mortal Deity rank had also broken through the Spiritual Deity Realm while his divine sense was still stuck at the peak of the Deity Transformation Realm.
Though twenty years might look a lot in the lifespan of a regular mortal, it was still nothing in the eyes of people like Ling Chen and the others who had over thousands of years of lifespan. To them, twenty years were no different than five months or so.
After helping the seven celestials religiously colonizing over fifty low-level civilization small worlds, Ling Chen had also linked each one of them together through a multitude of spatial nodes or portals, including the Great Luo World. As such, they could instantly travel to any of them if they wished to.
Furthermore, he had also used a year or two to travel to many other small and low-level civilization worlds and linked them together with the other fifty worlds that they've already religiously colonized.
These worlds were left behind for the Apostles of the colonized worlds to conquer in the celestial's names after they've reached a certain realm.
Though Ling Chen and the celestial planned on conquering the whole nameless Galaxy and turned it into their own religious farming ground, they weren't going to physically do it on their own.
It would simply take too much time with their level of power. Though the nameless Galaxy was the weakest and smallest galaxies in the 9th Ring of the Chaos Universe, the number of life planets within it was simply innumerable.
It took them twenty years to conquer over fifty of them. One could imagine how long it would take them to conquer a thousand or even ten thousand of them.
As such, they've only conquered fifty or so while leaving the rest to their subordinates. Furthermore, even if they wanted to continue their little conquest, they wouldn't be able to as the Dark Pegasus was running out of fuel.
It was one of the main reasons that they had to cut their little trip short. Unless they wanted to be stuck in the 9th Ring of the Chaos universe, they would have to quickly leave with the Dark Pegasus before they completely ran out of fuel.
Though there're many science and Technological civilizations worlds in the 9th Ring of the Chaos Universe, they were all still low-level civilizations.
None of them were advanced enough to handle a Battleship such as the Dark Pegasus which was manufactured by one of the most advanced and powerful influences in the 8th Ring of the Chaos universe.
As such, after conquering more than fifty life planets in the 9th Ring of the Chaos universe, Ling Chen didn't dare waste anytime as he quickly left for the 8th Ring of the Chaos Universe.
As for his homeworld and the other conquered planets, he could always come back whenever he wanted to. Furthermore, with the evil wild beasts scattered in all of them, he had eyes and ears in all the conquered worlds, even the Great Luo World.
