Wait, How Did My Digital Girlfriend Become a Sword Immortal? Chapter 975: Only by refining the entire Canglan World
Previously on Wait, How Did My Digital Girlfriend Become a Sword Immortal?...
The strongest existence in the Canglan Realm now only remained as a single dragon pearl.
If this matter were to spread, it would truly be lamentable.
But this was the Sea of Chaos. No one would know that the Golden Dragon King died here.
And Chen Huaian, currently holding this dragon pearl, was considering what to do after the Golden Dragon King's death.
The Golden Dragon King had connections with White Sword and the Heavenly Dao of the Canglan Realm.
In a sense, he was an informant planted in the Canglan Realm by White Sword.
Killing the Golden Dragon King would inevitably alert White Sword if not handled properly.
Chen Huaian toyed with the Golden Dragon King's dragon pearl, pondering carefully in his heart.
This dragon pearl contained the fundamental Laws of the Canglan World.
The vast power within was enough to drive any deity mad. Even a Chief God, upon touching this power, would have their Divine Soul instantly shattered.Yet, even after absorbing this dragon pearl, he still had no confidence in confronting White Sword.
"It seems—"
Chen Huaian narrowed his eyes, gripping the dragon pearl firmly.
"Only by completely refining the entire Canglan World."
Refining a Small Thousand World, becoming the master of this Small Thousand World.
Merging his body with the Heavenly Dao of the Canglan Realm, thereby elevating himself to at least the same level as the Heavenly Dao of the Canglan Realm. If the Heavenly Dao of the Canglan Realm came to the Canglan Realm again, he could directly craft a Golden Dragon King as a disguise.
After all, though this Golden Dragon King was called the world's supreme existence, he still relied on the Canglan Realm to survive.
In the Great Thousand World, he would be nothing but livestock awaiting slaughter.
And what he was about to do now was not to replace the Golden Dragon King's position.
But to transcend the Canglan World and become the true master of the world.
From the concept of becoming the master of the Canglan Realm's rules, to becoming the very concept of the Canglan Realm's rules. The former might seem stronger than the latter.
But that was not actually the case.
It was like how humans could use seawater, yet still feared the boundless ocean.
And he would directly become that deep sea.
But before that...
Chen Huaian's fingertip traced the dragon scale patterns on the dragon pearl, sensing the nearly overflowing vast origin within, his eyes slightly narrowed.
He first had to refine the Golden Dragon King's dragon pearl.
Strive to elevate his realm to that of a Chaos Great Luo Golden Immortal, which was the Sage realm.
And this Sage realm must be based on the Canglan Realm and Earth Star, not the Canglan Realm's Sage realm.
This required him to use immortal path power as the core, with the Canglan Realm's Law power as the driving force, propelling the immortal path power upward.
The consumption of the Canglan World's Law power for this would be terrifying.
The Golden Dragon King's dragon pearl alone would absolutely not be enough.
He would probably also need all of the Silver Dragon King's power, plus the power of the remaining deities.
"Then, let's begin now!"
Chen Huaian swept a glance across the boundless Sea of Chaos.
This place isolated all external interference, free from the Canglan Realm's Law constraints, making it the perfect location for secluded advancement.
He immediately sat cross-legged, slowly guiding that dragon pearl into his body.
Chaos Golden Immortal power circulated at full speed through his meridians, the vertical pupil between his eyebrows slowly closing.
He closed his eyes, his mind sinking into his dantian, beginning to refine the vast origin within the dragon pearl.
At the same time.
The Chaos Flying Sword unsheathed itself, its sword light flashing as it cleaved a sliver of heavenly light towards the anchor point on the return path.
This anchor point originated from him being Li Qingran's Battle Soul; his existence was highly bound to Li Qingran's existence.
If not for this anchor point, Chen Huaian wouldn't have dared to easily set foot in the Sea of Chaos.
In this land of Extinction, even time was a void concept. A slight lapse in attention could lead to losing direction, ultimately having one's power exhausted by the chaotic black mist and decaying here.
Leaving his True Form here to cultivate.
Chen Huaian's primordial spirit left his body, riding the sword light to depart the Sea of Chaos.
By the time he regained consciousness, he was already within Li Qingran's Battle Soul Space.
...
Within the Sea of Chaos, time was frozen.
When the Golden Dragon King transformed into a dragon pearl, Poseidon and the other deities were still in shock, amazed that Chen Huaian could drag the Golden Dragon King into a dark fissure.
That fissure vanished in an instant, and the auras of the Golden Dragon King and Chen Huaian disappeared along with it.
"This... what's going on?"
Poseidon was terrified.
Because he felt the Golden Dragon King's existence had vanished, as if the Golden Dragon King had never appeared in the Canglan Realm.
Apart from his memories and everything about the Golden Dragon King, no trace of the Golden Dragon King could be found anywhere in the Canglan Realm.
Similarly vanished was Chen Huaian.
"Poseidon! How dare you!"
With Chen Huaian and the Golden Dragon King gone, the dozen or so surviving deities finally reacted.
This wretched old man Poseidon, where was he asking them to come divide the Sea God's authority? This was clearly a trap!
This old man wanted to wipe out all the deities of the Canglan Realm in one go. Who knew where he found such a helper, who even wanted to kill an existence like the Golden Dragon King.
Although they couldn't sense the Golden Dragon King's presence.
The deities, long oppressed by the Golden Dragon King's hegemony, still held great confidence in him.
They believed that once the Golden Dragon King dealt with that mysterious existence, he would fight his way back from the black fissure.
Taking a step back, even if the Golden Dragon King was gone, wasn't there still the Silver Dragon King?
They could rely on the Silver Dragon King. Who could Poseidon, with his plot exposed, rely on?
"Who would have thought you were such a person, Poseidon. With so many deities fallen, even without our report, Lord Silver Dragon King will surely know." A Middle God stepped back cautiously, his eyes filled with wariness, his tone icy. "You just wait for the Silver Dragon King's judgment!"
"Hahahahaha!"
With a sinister laugh, the weakness on Poseidon's face peeled away like fading paint, flaking off piece by piece.
He straightened his spine, his turbid eyes sharpening into blades in an instant.
"Judgment?"
He chewed on these two words, the corner of his mouth slowly curling into a bloodthirsty smile.
"You spineless cowards who've been kneeling for too long, do you even remember how to write the word 'judgment'?"
He took a step forward.
As this step landed, the aura about him changed.
His stature grew taller, his previously hunched back now ramrod straight, the muscles at his shoulder blades bulging, straining his divine robes into sharp angles.
"What is the meaning of a deity's existence?"
Poseidon's voice was deep and resonant, like the rumble from an undersea earthquake:
"To govern the Laws! To ensure the orderly operation of the Laws! To keep the Canglan World evergreen!"
"Not like you and the Golden Dragon King, treating the Canglan World as a Go board, treating the Cycle of Reincarnation of living beings as a game!"
The face of the opposing Middle God turned ashen, his lips trembling several times before he finally managed to squeeze out:
"Poseidon, stop your hypocritical moralizing!
You're just resentful because the Golden Dragon King cursed your daughter, stripping away her hope of inheriting a Divine Position!
Besides, you're only at Middle God strength now. Do you still think you're that Chief God? What right do you have to spout such nonsense here!"
"Hypocritical moralizing?"
Poseidon laughed, his laughter rising from low to high, from muffled to sharp, finally transforming into a near-maniacal roar.
"Fine!"
He abruptly stopped laughing, his expression shifting from mania to icy coldness in an instant.
"Then I'll show you some hypocritical moralizing."
He flipped his palm.
The half of his Divine Spark that had been sealed earlier appeared in his palm.
That half Divine Spark emanated the oppressive might of the ocean, the Law power contained within it like giant waves in a storm, layer upon layer, endless.
Poseidon did not hesitate, clenching his five fingers, shattering the seal.
That half Divine Spark transformed into a cold, sea-blue light that sank into his chest.
BOOM—!
His body jolted violently, the ground beneath his feet cracking radially outward from him, icy seawater gushing from the fissures.
His hair turned from grayish-white to deep blue, like the color of the deepest ocean floor.
Under the horrified gazes of the deities, his divine power was skyrocketing!
Previously, he had deliberately sealed half his Divine Spark, feigning weakness. Now, he reclaimed it all.
Seawater spread beneath his feet, icy and bone-chilling, carrying the oppressive might of the entire Endless Sea, washing over the deities.
Now.
He was a Chief God again.
