Chapter 1009: Chapter 992: The Secret of Divine Power - Oracles of Spiritual Beings!

The situation in the blood battle was already immensely precarious, and even King Bi Xi felt an extreme pressure at this moment because the safety of the entire Eastern Wasteland Human Realm rested on the shoulders of tens of millions of Human War Soldiers engaged in this blood battle.

If the foreign tribes were to breach the defenses of the Eastern Wasteland South Region and enter the Human Realm, the chain reaction that would be triggered across the five lands of the Human Realm would be immeasurable.

Wuu wuu wuu!

The desolate sound of the horn rose again, thick and piercing through the Void, reaching every War Soldier engaged in battle. No one received orders to retreat; all Human War Soldiers were charging forward, blood had already driven them to madness.

The Human clan was depleting its living forces, and equally, the foreign tribes were also depleting theirs—it was a test of endurance!

Once one side could not hold on, complete defeat would follow!

Desolate Realm Divine Mansion.

Xiao Chen floated weightlessly in an unknown Void Space, looking somewhat battered. His battle robe had long been tattered, and beneath it, the Physique for War also bore scars.

These were cuts from divine power that had slashed past!

Although the Blood Essence Battle Body was powerful, divine power was even more formidable, and it could be said that Xiao Chen had been tormented by it for some time.

Each time he was wounded by divine power, the rich vitality within his body would rapidly heal the damage, which caused his Blood Qi to be severely depleted.

However, Xiao Chen, seeming very weary, had eyes like the stars, twinkling with starlight, and he was extremely excited.

"The spiritual beings of the mythic god-era had control over wind, rain, lightning, and Destruction Void. Their divine power was clearly a merger of their own strength and the Heavenly Path."

As he continually contemplated the essence of divine power, Xiao Chen’s understanding of it grew clearer, and to perceive the power used by spiritual beings was a colossal opportunity for any warrior.

Should this immense opportunity be harnessed, it would undoubtedly lead to an explosive boost in his combat prowess. What would the power of a king amount to under the force of a spiritual being!

Even Xiao Chen speculated that divine power might be on the same level as the force of emperors!

"The Human clan can actually control divine power!"

This realization greatly invigorated Xiao Chen; it was different from the motley power derived from the incomplete Divine Objects or legacies obtained by other warriors of the Desolate Wilds.

It was genuine divine power controlled and merged by the warriors themselves. At this moment, he finally understood why the enigmatic figure could construct the Divine Mansion!

Proclaiming himself the Desolate God!

With divine power!

If not declare oneself a spiritual being, then what!

Spiritual Beings!

After the many spiritual beings disappeared in the mythic god-era, divine power reemerged in a member of the Human clan, achieving the status of a spiritual being!

He had shattered the belief that spiritual beings were innately divine!

"Blood Qi!"

Finally, Xiao Chen let out a fierce shout, and in his palm, a vibrant crimson tinged with pale golden Blood Qi emerged!

"Spiritual will, merge!"

Suddenly, spiritual fluctuations from his brow merged into the ball of Blood Qi!

Weng weng weng!

This was a true merger of spiritual will and Blood Qi!

It wasn’t a case of the warrior using spiritual will to manipulate Blood Qi, but rather the two becoming one.

"Combat Qi, merge!"

Soon, Xiao Chen’s palm harbored another ball of purple-green Combat Qi merging in.

After deciphering countless strands of divine power over these days, Xiao Chen began to fuse his blood and battle energy with his spiritual will, mutually integrating them.

Beings born divine naturally possess divine strength; it seems every strike they deliver gathers all the energy within their bodies.

With the mere wave of a hand or stamp of a foot, they can unleash destructive forces capable of obliterating heaven and earth!

The eruption of divine power is their instinct!

To be born divine is to wield a power never seen in the Hundred Clans that emerged later!

Hum!

The fusion of the three forces finally caused a slight change in the airflow within Xiao Chen’s palm.

Thirty percent... Fifty percent, sixty percent... Ninety percent... Ninety-nine percent!

With the faint golden-red of blood energy, the purple-blue of battle Qi, and the formless spiritual fluctuations—when the three truly merged.

Boom!

From Xiao Chen’s palm, a roaring sound erupted, and suddenly blood and bones scattered; his entire hand was blown apart!

With a flash of bloody light, a rich surge of blood energy flowed from Xiao Chen’s body, regenerating his shattered hand. Then, he produced a jade bottle from his hand and, without looking, swallowed the pill inside.

The injury repeatedly healed, consuming a formidable amount of blood energy within him, and the regeneration of his broken hand depleted even more. Without replenishment, he himself would die from total blood energy exhaustion.

From quantitative change to qualitative transformation, the initial fusion of the three forces wasn’t yet true divine power, but the strength unleashed was ten times that of merely battle Qi or blood energy alone.

This indicated his method was correct, just currently beyond his control!

To be able to wield the force formerly used by spiritual beings was an opportunity that could drive one mad. At this moment, Xiao Chen was almost too eager to find out the true strength of this mysterious person.

To have such audacity to control divine power with a mere fleshly mortal body!

Rumble!

Suddenly, the Void world before Xiao Chen began to collapse, with streams of divine power shooting out, and his eyes plunged into darkness, unable to see through the pitch-black in front of him.

Not until all the divine light before him had melted into boundless darkness did Xiao Chen realize he could only hear his own breathing.

Suddenly, a faint light floated around him, and an ancient breath, redolent with the weight of years, rushed towards him.

"Hm!"

Unconsciously, Xiao Chen found that he had stepped onto solid ground and, sensing the decayed aura surrounding him, he let out a long sigh.

This Divine Mansion existed for a time so ancient it surpassed his understanding.

Hum!

A divine sound echoed in Xiao Chen’s mind, like the clear chime of pearls dropping onto a jade plate, a single soft note that seemed to span across eons.

A grand, noble, and majestic breath rose up, with golden rosy clouds scattering in thousands, the earth sprouting golden lotuses, and the Void manifesting flowers—these were divine flowers condensed from divine power.

"Divine power!"

When Xiao Chen finally saw where he was, he found himself before a Divine Temple.

It was a Stone Hall that, though exuding an ancient and primitive aura, was quite ordinary, just like the Great Hall built by the Desolate Wilderness Human Clan’s Battle Division.

In front of the Great Hall stood two ancient trees, each with a diameter of a thousand feet, having lived through countless years and towering ten thousand feet high; yet despite their vast canopies, they showed not a hint of life, long dead for who knows how long.

Underneath the trees stood a broken Ancient Stele, only three feet tall, which compared to the Great Hall and ancient trees, was indeed minuscule!

The stele bore Divine Texts branded by divine power, akin to imperial decrees. It was as if Xiao Chen had received an Imperial Edict from emperors of old.

Despite being several orders of magnitude smaller than the ancient trees, the dignity emanating from this ancient stele suffocated Xiao Chen. The twisted, tadpole-like Divine Texts seethed with life, ancient and profound.
