Chapter 680: Divine Power Upgrade, God Worshipping Cult’s Actions, A Tense Situation

“You can combine Heavenly Punishment Dao patterns with runes?”

“I never knew…”

After meeting the Seventh Tormentor, Chu Kuangren had an all-new insight regarding Heavenly Punishment Dao patterns. In the following days, he devoted all his time to studying the Heavenly Punishment Dao patterns.

Apart from that, a string of events had taken place on the Firmament Star too. For instance, the restoration of Heavenly Dao, the emergence of sky-prides from various places, the birth of a myriad of treasures following the conducive conditions, the breaking of Gods’ Seals, and lastly, the secret establishment of certain cults…

In a flash, three months had passed.

Although there were no groundbreaking changes in these three months, the changes on Firmament Star were still noticeable.

Spiritual qi was now more vibrant, while treasures were more abundant. It was much easier for cultivators to cultivate too.

Things especially hold true in Black Heaven Sect.

“How many treasures have appeared from the ground this month?”

Inside Black Heaven Sect, Elder Ruyan looked at a disciple who was carrying a huge jade — one which contained extremely pure energy within.

“I think this is the sixth.”

“Keep it inside the vault,” Elder Ruyan ordered.

Over the last few months, many different treasures had been emerging from the Black Heaven Sect’s territories since it was the Godly Phoenix’s residence. This phenomenon had made so many Emperors envious.

Even so, those Emperors dared not have any wishful thinking. After all, a Heavenly Tormentor figure was watching over that place. Who would dare cause any trouble?

Many people were speculating that Chu Kuangren was someone with an insanely good fortune. Otherwise, how could the Godly Phoenix alone be able to produce so many treasures within that small ten-kilometer radius of land?

Nonetheless, those were all just speculations, and there was no concrete proof of that logic.

Black Heaven Sect, Towering Heaven Palace.

Having just completed his closed-door meditation, Chu Kuangren flipped open the Fantasy Roulette.

He had been drawing his gacha rolls in the past three months too. However, with his current cultivation realm, the vast majority of items he drew were no longer of good use to him. Thus, he would often stash these prizes away in the Black Heaven Sect’s treasure vault.

Throughout these years, Black Heaven Sect had been using their resources generously. However, Elder Ruyan and the others did not seem to have any sign of slowing down.

Conversely, more treasures just kept on pouring in despite their continuous usage.

“Draw the gacha.”

“Congratulations, Host. You’ve acquired a Transcendent-grade item, a Divine Power Upgrade Card.”

A Divine Power Upgrade Card.

Chu Kuangren’s eyes lit up. “Another Transcendent-grade item.”

With his current cultivation realm, a normal Ordinary-grade item no longer served any use to him. Only those God-grade or Transcendent-grade ones would help him greatly. For example, the Indestructible Physique, Spatial Conveyor Skill, and so on…

These God-grade prizes still benefit him immensely up to this day.

Much more could be said about the Transcendent-grade Lucky Halo and Tome of Physiques.

The former allowed him to draw many incredible prizes. Without this halo, he would never have been able to improve so quickly in such a short time. As for the latter, its value had begun to show more and more as he continued to deepen his study.

Now, he has drawn yet another Transcendent prize.

He opened his inventory.

A Transcendent-grade prize, Divine Power Upgrade Card.

[Using this card can bring improvements to a selected divine power. There is a certain chance that the divine power can improve to the level of a Transcendent-grade.]

This card made Chu Kuangren ponder.

“A selected divine power, huh?”

“The divine powers that I currently possess are the Spatial Conveyor Skill, Divine Sword of Four Mystical Elements, Treasure Locating Skill, Eye of Revelation… Since it provides an upgrade, I might as well utilize this card to its greatest margin.”

“Right now, the most useful ones are the Eye of Revelation and Spatial Conveyor Skill. I’ll have to choose one of these two then.”

Chu Kuangren mumbled to himself.

After pondering for quite some time, he decided to go with the Eye of Revelation in the end.

This divine power had been with him for the longest time and had helped him so much till this day. The Spatial Conveyor Skill, too, was very powerful, and although spatial techniques were scarce in this world, there was still a chance that he might find another one.

However, this did not apply to the Eye of Revelation.

It was the most unique divine power that Chu Kuangren had come across to this date. He was intrigued to know what other effects this divine power could bring after giving it an upgrade.

At that thought, he immediately used the Divine Power Upgrade Card.

“Are you confirming your selection to upgrade the divine power, the Eye of Revelation?”

“Yes.”

“Upgrading the Eye of Revelation, progressing one percent out of a hundred…”

Upgrading divine powers required a certain amount of time, so Chu Kuangren did not give it much thought either, allowing it to do its thing on its own course.

After that, he departed the Towering Heaven Palace and did a quick walk around the Black Heaven Sect. He paid additional attention to the Phantasmal Secret Realm.

Many disciples were lined up here, waiting for their test inside.

He smiled in satisfaction. “These fellas are quite disciplined.”

As the saying goes, ‘The Master can only lead a disciple into the sect, while the cultivation depends on the disciple’s own efforts.’

If these disciples were not disciplined and hardworking enough, it would be useless even if Chu Kuangren kept feeding them with more resources.

Chu Kuangren then went to Longevity Hall to see Elder Ruyan busy with work. She was in the midst of organizing and categorizing some treasures.

When she saw Chu Kuangren coming in, Elder Ruyan threw him a side-glance and said, “Sect Leader, please remember to put these treasures in their respective categories the next time you add them to the vault. Weapons should be with weapons, and elixirs with elixirs. The last time I went inside the treasure vault, an ax dropped down from the pillar of the roof. If it weren’t for my quick reflexes, this head of mine would have been chopped off.”

“Sorry, I’ll be sure to keep that in mind.”

Chu Kuangren bent his head down apologetically, letting out a wry smile.

“Oh, Sect Leader Chu…” Elder Ruyan shook her head helplessly.

In the next few days, Chu Kuangren settled some of Black Heaven Sect’s backlogged external affairs.

Amongst them, one matter bothered him quite a bit.

Several weird cults had suddenly emerged in Barren Cloud Prefecture of Firmament Star. In just a short few months, they had expanded to over thousands in size. There were even some impressive elites in the cult, which was what drew his attention.

Chu Kuangren fell silent.

This could all be perpetrated by those Gods.

“Besides, isn’t the Barren Cloud Prefecture the School of White Lotus’s base? It seems like I must go check it out.”

The School of White Lotus’s could be considered the Black Heaven Sect’s ally. Besides, Chu Kuangren still had the title of School of White Lotus’s Supreme Elder.

Barren Cloud Prefecture.

The person who stood guard over this prefecture was a Rank Four Initial Emperor.

The first thing Chu Kuangren did upon arriving at the place was to look for the Emperor in charge of the place. He directly questioned him, “Cults worshipping the Gods have emerged in your designated area, yet you’re doing anything about it. Care to explain?!”

Upon seeing Chu Kuangren here, the Emperor dared not take this matter lightly and hastily offered an explanation. “Apologies, Heavenly Tormentor Sir. It’s not that I don’t want to, but there is just nothing I can do about it. Those few cults are controlled by the God Worshipping Cult, and they even have a few Gods in there. I’m no match to those guys.”

“What about the Heavenly Imperials? Are they not here yet?”

Chu Kuangren raised an eyebrow as he asked.

“Right now, there’s only Heavenly Imperial Su and less than a handful of Lesser Heavenly Imperials on Firmament Star. As for the rest of the Heavenly Imperials, I heard that they couldn’t make it due to a sudden emergency at the Extraterritorial Battlefield.”

The Emperor lamented helplessly.

He initially thought that being delegated to the Firmament Star to guard the Gods’ Seal was an easy task, but in hindsight, things were not what he envisioned them to be.

With a slip of caution, the danger level that this task poses would be no less than being on the Extraterritorial Battlefield.

“Has there been a sudden turn of events at the Extraterritorial Battlefield? And the Gods chose precisely this time to cause chaos upon us. What a coincidence, huh?”

Chu Kuangren was a little skeptical.

They were being hit from both inside and out.

The state that Firmament Star was in right now was undoubtedly perilous.

He shook his head and took out a jade scroll to directly contact the Seventh Tormentor. He consulted the latter about his opinion regarding the cults that had emerged recently.

He found out from their conversation that the Seventh Tormentor was currently being held back by two Greater Gods. If he were to leave them unattended, those two Greater Gods would surely join in the havoc as well.

He had not fully recovered yet, so fighting two Greater Gods alone would be too arduous for him even if he had the Heavenly Punishment energy. Hence, he could only stay put.
