Divine King of Honour Chapter 1893: Ancient Devouring God Worm

The creation of a God-level puppet is an undertaking that demands significant effort.

Beyond the essential three pearls, a substantial quantity of supplementary materials is requisite.

Among these are several critical components that present formidable challenges for even the most proficient Divine-level experts to acquire.

Foremost among these is a God-Level Divine Position, which must align in attribute with the three Rebirth Pearls.

The Rebirth Pearls possess Dark, Thunder, and Fire attributes, respectively.

Currently, Xu Nian possesses only a single Water Attribute God-Level Divine Position, derived from a Red Blood Swallowing Sky Python. Furthermore, his four other held Divine Positions are also of the God-level.

Compounding this, the Water Attribute Divine Position is earmarked for a future mission.

In addition to the Divine Position, the crafting process necessitates a God-level body and a selection of specialized artifact refining materials.

These metallic components are not readily discovered.

Xu Nian's immediate objective is not to procure God Level Divine Positions, but rather to locate those few specific artifact refining materials.

The acquisition of God Level Divine Positions, given Xu Nian's present capabilities, appears to be a considerably arduous endeavor.

"Red Moon Snow Gold, Tianxuan Golden Sand, Glazed Jade – these are all artifact refining materials for Divine Artifacts. Does the Broken World of Hell truly harbor such treasures?" Xu Nian projected his thoughts to the Artifact Spirit, Shi Shanshan, posing his query.

Initially, the prospect of finding these three exceptionally rare materials had not been part of his plan.

However, Shi Shanshan abruptly conveyed a message, indicating her knowledge of a location harboring Tianxuan Golden Sand, which instantly ignited Xu Nian's interest.

It is crucial to recognize that these three treasures are rarities often found only after centuries; their scarcity extends beyond the Immortal, Demon, and Devil Worlds, even reaching into the Divine World. With their whereabouts now known, how could Xu Nian possibly relinquish such an opportunity?

After all, the successful refinement of a God-level Puppet would equip him with a degree of self-protection upon his eventual arrival in the Divine World.

"Master, I can definitively affirm that Tianxuan Golden Sand is indeed present within this Hell World. My master, in days past, acquired an ancient tome that detailed the precise location of the Tianxuan Golden Sand. Its position is exceedingly concealed, rendering it utterly undiscoverable by any individual," Shi Shanshan responded.

"Very well, then transmit the location data to me," Xu Nian communicated back.

Without any delay, Shi Shanshan promptly conveyed the location particulars to Xu Nian.

"Black Gold Desert?" A flicker of uncertainty crossed Xu Nian's face upon receipt of the precise coordinates.

"Indeed, the Black Gold Desert. It was a place fraught with peril in ancient Hell. Legend has it that it served as a burial ground for gods, where the fragmented soul essences of numerous Divine-level experts coalesced into terrifying domains, making escape impossible for any below the God-level," Shi Shanshan elaborated.

"Is that not an exceedingly dangerous prospect then?" Xu Nian's brow furrowed.

"This is something you need not fret over, Master. That was hundreds of thousands of years ago. Now that Hell is shattered, those domains have long since disintegrated over the passage of time. The sole hazard that remains is that the Black Gold Desert is infested with numerous perilous space fissures, incredibly subtle and imperceptible to the naked eye. These spatial rifts possess the capability to effortlessly bisect the form of a Divine-level expert," Shi Shanshan transmitted.

A wave of relief washed over Xu Nian at her words.

The prospect of entering domains transmuted from ancient god souls would have represented an irreversible path to demise.

As for these spatial fissures, Xu Nian harbored no apprehension.

Given his Undying Devouring Sky Beast's mastery over space, discerning the presence of some spatial fissures was certainly within his capabilities.

Presently, Xu Nian's Undying Devouring Sky Beast has attained the pinnacle of the Great Perfection Realm in Space Law.

Nevertheless, ascending to the Space Dao True Intent Realm remains a formidable undertaking.

Three days elapsed, and above the vast expanse of the Black Gold Desert.

A solitary figure traversed the desert at an astonishing velocity.

His form executed subtle evasive maneuvers intermittently, effortlessly circumventing a multitude of inconspicuous space fissures.

Before long, his trajectory concluded at a specific location within the desert's depths.

The obsidian desert shimmered with a dark, metallic sheen, akin to pure black gold.

"Is this the place?" Xu Nian inquired, his gaze fixed upon a marker stone pillar before him.

"Yes, precisely here. Concealed beneath this stone pillar lies an subterranean palace, within which the Tianxuan Golden Sand is housed," Shi Shanshan's voice echoed.

Xu Nian acknowledged this with a nod and promptly initiated the Earth Attribute Law.

In the ensuing moment, Xu Nian's form plunged directly into the Black Gold Desert, descending into its depths.

Indeed, the technique Xu Nian employed was the Earth Escape Skill, augmented by the Earth Attribute Law.

However, the progression was not as seamless as Xu Nian had anticipated; the black sand was heavily interlaced with Black Gold Mysterious Iron Ore, a factor that explained the locality's distinctive dark hue.

The Black Gold Mysterious Iron Ore, while not precisely rare, stands as a premium material for forging top-tier Immortal Artifacts within the Immortal Realm. Nevertheless, for Xu Nian, these ores held no particular significance.

Their presence, however, embedded within the dark sand, noticeably impeded Xu Nian's progress.

After what felt like several hours, Xu Nian finally arrived at the majestic palace Shi Shanshan had described.

It was discovered that this palace was situated a staggering three thousand feet beneath the surface.

Upon crossing the threshold into the palace, Xu Nian found himself momentarily speechless at the breathtaking spectacle.

The entire palace, it turned out, had been meticulously carved out of a colossal chunk of Black Gold Mysterious Iron Ore.

Xu Nian struggled to comprehend the sheer immensity of the Black Gold Mysterious Iron Ore required to form such a grand edifice.

The palace itself was vast, its internal height alone reaching an impressive thirty feet.

The actual furnishings within the palace, however, were remarkably modest; apart from a pool situated at the forefront and a single stone table, there was little else to be seen.

Xu Nian proceeded to approach the pool.

This pool was circular in shape, measuring approximately three meters in diameter, and was encircled by four distinct structures resembling dragon heads.

Instead of water, these dragon heads were designed to spout sand. However, it was quite apparent that the dragon heads had long since exhausted their supply, with only a meager amount of sand remaining.

Within the confines of the pool lay a substantial heap of sand.

Upon witnessing this sand, Xu Nian was immediately filled with immense joy.

This was because the golden sand before him was precisely the Tianxuan Golden Sand he had been diligently searching for.

"Could this truly be the Tianxuan Golden Sand?" Xu Nian's heart swelled with elation.

As he attempted to scoop some of the sand, Xu Nian was taken aback by its unexpected weight, far heavier than he had ever anticipated.

A mere handful of this sand tipped the scales at a full hundred thousand jin. He found it impossible to estimate the total weight of the entire pool filled with this sand.

Yet, the considerable weight of this sand was a trivial matter for Xu Nian.

With effortless ease, he commanded the Chaos Divine Palace to absorb the entirety of the sand.

"Hmm, what is this?"

Once all the sand had been successfully collected, Xu Nian noticed an object nestled at the bottom of the sand, resembling a beetle.

This beetle appeared to be actively consuming the golden sand.

The creature's body was a deep black, adorned with striking golden stripes that ran along its form.

These golden stripes pulsed with a vibrant luminescence, reminiscent of flickering flames.

Though the entire being was no larger than the size of a palm, it radiated an indomitable aura that Xu Nian could distinctly feel.

"Could this possibly be an Ancient Devouring God Worm?"

A voice, laced with utter astonishment, resonated within Xu Nian's mind.

This voice belonged to Shi Shanshan.

"Ancient Devouring God Worm? What exactly is that?" Xu Nian inquired, a sense of bewilderment coloring his tone.

"This creature is incredibly powerful and was believed to be long extinct; it is truly astonishing that it still exists. If you can gain control over it, Master, its value would far surpass even that of the God King Sword," Shi Shanshan exclaimed with palpable excitement.

Xu Nian was visibly taken aback by this revelation.

More valuable than the God King Sword?

Furthermore, he could clearly detect the tremor of pure excitement in Shi Shanshan's voice.

For a divine being to express such profound emotion, this could only signify a matter of extraordinary importance.
