GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?
Chapter 2204 - 2204: The Epitome Of Undying.

Another great thing about Blood Limbs is that it needs Life energy to be used. As long as they have Life Energy, they can create as many Blood Limbs as they can control with their spirit.

This feature won't make a difference to other epic beings, as they can replenish life energy with spiritual energy, so Blood Limbs indirectly used spiritual energy for them.

But things are different for them because they possess the Blood Heart. They can absorb life force around them with Blood Heart so they can create and maintain Blood Limbs to the limit of what they can control.

Of course, the rank 4 divine ability is also great. Every rank 4 divine ability is great and powerful. Just like rank 1 divine abilities, rank 4 divine abilities are iconic.

The rank 4 divine ability of the pathway of undying is the Absorption Body. This is a divine ability that absorbs the resolved part of an attack and converts it into Life Energy which will keep the undying alive when they are being beaten.

Absorption Body is a divine ability that relies heavily on the three shields before it. It can only absorb what the other three manage to block.

This arrangement creates a sort of reliance that can be used as its weakness. But if it gets to a stage where the three shields can block more than half of an attack and Absorption Body manages to absorb this portion, then the undying godclad will be replenishing their life energy faster than they lose it.

They will like to say that this is the epitome of the goal of being undying. But they know that isn't right because Undying godclads will only get more and more difficult to kill from here on out. So there is still a higher peak in the future.

If they can reach the stage where they absorb more life energy than they lose in an attack, their only weakness will be spiritual energy. Once they run out of spiritual energy to use Aegis Shield, then they will be in trouble.

This is why most undying godclads will stop using Aegis Shield and rely mostly on the Armor divine ability to block attacks. Only when they are in a precarious state will they use Aegis Shield to gain a respite and even recover Life Energy.

They don't need to do that because they have a lot of spiritual energy and because it is unlikely that anyone at their stage can push them to a desperate state when they have the pathway of killing to retaliate.

After checking themselves out thoroughly, Legion-1 said to them with a smile, "What we need to do now is train."

Legion-3 added, "And help our slaves reach rank 4 too."

Legion-7 added another one: "And meet the person who wants to meet us about the rank 4 divine flesh for the pathway of the telepath."

Legion-11 thought that there was something else that they should pay attention to. "And maybe begin preparing for the advancement requirements of the next stage."

Legion-5 said with certainty, "We also need to set our slaves loose on Reinfield so that they will expand the gang, earn more money for us, and earn more mastery of Life Bond for us."

Legion-9 groaned and said, "We have so much to do."

Legion-10 agreed. "No rest for the wicked."

They didn't waste time talking. As they were talking, they were already asking their slaves to prepare to rank up and to bring energy water to them.

Currently, their spiritual power is 80 units. They can increase that to 160 units with 800 liters of energy water. During the process of digesting the energy water, they will use the extra spiritual energy to train their divine abilities.

They didn't use the energy water they brought with them to Reinfield to grow stronger and train. Instead, they used the energy water that the Golden Hammer gang owns.

While they were training, they were also mentally preparing their slaves to rank up. This mental training is simply brainwashing.

The brainwashing is not something they could do in a day. They had to do it over a long time so that the thoughts that they infiltrated into the top layer of their slaves' minds would precipitate on the second layer of their minds and turn into long-term memory.

Long-term memory is more stable than short-term memory and thoughts. The stability of their mental influence is very important in turning their slaves into loyal servants. But it becomes extra important since the mental impact of divine flesh is also on the short-term memory.

When divine flesh tempts people, they affect the surface of the mind where short-term memory and thoughts are. If they want to be able to beat the influence of divine flesh, it is best if their own mental influence is deeper than the surface of the mind.

So they waited for two weeks before they helped their slaves advance. They still didn't go ahead immediately. They went to enslave a godclad of the Light Pathway.

They did this because rank 1 godclads of the Light Pathway have the Heal divine ability. They wanted to use this ability to replenish the life energy that their slaves lose and alleviate the pain they feel in the process of advancing.

They even helped the three of them stabilize their minds with spiritual energy using the Life Bond. So their assistance was a three-pronged approach. Only in this way were they able to help the three of them advance to rank 4 successfully.

After the three of them reached rank 4, Legion gave them a new name.

Legion called the traveler the fast hammer, while the knight got the name of the heavy hammer. Golden Hammer, who was the giant, got to keep his name.

The three hammers were then sent to meet the rank 4 epic who wanted to meet with them for the matter of the rank 4 divine flesh of the pathway of the telepath.
