Chapter 1192 - Chapter 1192 Chapter 1192 Huang Xiaolongs Choice
Chapter 1192: Chapter 1192: Huang Xiaolong’s Choice! Chapter 1192: Chapter 1192: Huang Xiaolong’s Choice! Before going to handle those five strands of Divine Power, Huang Xiaolong had also visited his wives, as well as the others.
By then, Dragon Island had already become deserted.
Everyone had been arranged by Huang Xiaolong to be in the underworld.
This was a palace district where the color scheme was not gloomy. All around, various flowers and plants of the netherworld were planted, such as the Manjusaka, Crystal Orchids, Rotten Flowers, and Ghost Grass… and so on and so forth, all blooming vibrantly and emitting strangely seductive scents.
There were also many unique creatures of the underworld, such as the Dark Butterflies, Underworld Frogs, Three-headed Hounds, and the like, strolling leisurely in this palace district. It was a scene of tranquility.
Because they had lived with Huang Xiaolong, the Yin Emperor, they had more or less absorbed some of his aura, so people felt no fear towards the underworld. Instead, it felt like seclusion in a peaceful paradise. Even for the wives who had received Huang Xiaolong’s favor, the underworld even carried a sense of familiarity.
As Huang Xiaolong stepped into the palace district, his wives came rushing over, carrying a fragrant breeze with them.
“Little Long, you’re here.” Yan Pianpian adorably hooked her arm into Huang Xiaolong’s.
“Little Long, what’s the situation outside now? Did you go to the 800th birthday feast of Shushan Sect’s Sect Master Ling Feng?” Ma Chuxia asked.
“It’s been so-so. That guy Ling Feng is now disheveled and too busy to care for himself,” Huang Xiaolong laughed. “In this period, you all should stay in the underworld. It’s absolutely safe. If you’re bored, you can go play by the River of Oblivion. You can also chat with the spirits of the underworld to learn some things. Huaxia’s outstanding historical spirits, the generation of extraordinary scholars and beautiful women, the generals and nobles who dominated their era, the monarchs who conquered lands and proclaimed themselves emperors… In the underworld, you can find them all. Isn’t it fun?”
Pausing for a moment, Huang Xiaolong continued, “The eldest wife and Aoshan are still in the Palace of Moving Flowers. With the current changes, I need to find time to fetch them. However, their divine souls contain a peerless secret technique I left behind, so they can protect themselves for the time being.”
Hearing Huang Xiaolong say this, the wives’ eyes lit up.
“Cough cough~ Island Master, I really didn’t expect that you’re actually King Yan,” Mr. Dongfang came forward tremblingly, followed by a worshipful Zhan Tang.
“Island Master, ever since I was young, my idol has been Lv Bu~~ I wonder if… Island Master could introduce me,” Mr. Dongfang said with a look of admiration.
“Hehe, Lv Bu? He’s soaking in the River of Oblivion. Go find him. But be careful when you speak with him; he is a Ghost Immortal, fierce and tyrannical, and overwhelmingly mighty,” Huang Xiaolong said earnestly. “Not to mention Lv Bu, even Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian are staying obediently in the underworld.”
After some idle chat, Huang Xiaolong also told everyone that the mortal realm was not very peaceful recently, and Earth might face a catastrophe, so he instructed everyone to stay in the underworld for the time being as a precaution.
After bidding everyone farewell, Huang Xiaolong then went to a separate palace.
He sat cross-legged.
His divine sense spread out like a fishing net, pulling the storm clouds and the five strands of Divine Power into the palace.
The five strands of Divine Power were lined up in a row, suspended in front of Huang Xiaolong.
He was very familiar with the aura of the Divine Power.
Familiar and dear.
“This is not a force belonging to the mortal world, nor can it be matched by the cultivators on Earth~~~ Divine Power belongs only to the deities; even just a trace of it is a Divine Power not to be profaned.”
Huang Xiaolong was full of emotion.
Now, Earth is in an age where the divine way declined, the gods have fallen, but looking at these five strands of Divine Power, it brings back memories of the past when the Heavenly Court existed, and divine splendor was scattered, such a magnificent scene it was.
“If on Earth, all the gods still existed, I wonder if they could withstand the oppression from the Immortal Realm, Dragon Realm, and Demon Realm,” Huang Xiaolong mused.
After a short while, Huang Xiaolong collected his thoughts and began to research.
Research what? Naturally, it was to investigate how to use these Divine Powers, to bring out their greatest effect.
After all, Huang Xiaolong had a premonition, sensing the way of heaven–a grim foreboding. Despite the many restrictions on the Dragon Realm, Demon Realm, and Immortal Realm descending upon Earth, one couldn’t guarantee that Earth wouldn’t one day become a playground for these advanced beings, subject to wanton destruction or even total annihilation.
Facing these advanced beings, Huang Xiaolong, though a deity, still lacked strength. Therefore, he had to find a way to improve!
Huang Xiaolong began to study tirelessly, without sleep or food.
A full five days and nights passed, and Huang Xiaolong sat in the palace, utterly solitary, like an old monk in meditation.
On the sixth day, finally, Huang Xiaolong’s eyes opened abruptly, casting a sharp glint that swept across the palace.
“I’ve got it. To utilize these five strands of Divine Power, there are two options!”
“The first is to directly refine these five strands of Divine Power into the purest form of energy! Such energy, even a trace of it, is as exalted as the sun and moon, as vast as heaven and earth! Mortals can’t withstand it. Merely integrating a trace into the body would cause it to explode instantly. But as the possessor of a Divine Body, I can absorb such energy.”
“By refining and absorbing this Divine Power, my own body can become stronger. Both my offensive and defensive capabilities will rise to a new level.”
“The second option is… to condense these five strands of Divine Power into five avatars! Equivalent to a cultivator’s Heaven and Earth Dharma Incarnations! They are–the Avatar of Uncle Feng! The Avatar of Master Yu! The Princess of Lightning Avatar! The Lord of Thunder Avatar! The God of Clouds Avatar!”
“Because these five strands of Divine Power have already lost consciousness, lacking even one-thousandth of the Five Gods’ peak strength. Thus, it’s impossible for the Five Gods to be resurrected. The divinity and divine status of the Five Gods have perished. However, within the five strands of Divine Power, there are still some seeds of attribute-specific energy, which I can refine into avatars.”
“Strictly speaking, each of these five avatars possesses only one-thousandth of the power of the Five Gods at their peak. They are rather weak, to say the least. However, all five avatars can grow! Once they obtain the high-grade energies of wind, rain, thunder, lightning, and clouds–these five attributes–and absorb them, grow from them, perhaps one day the five avatars will reach the pinnacle state of the original Five Gods.”
“In this way, I alone would be equivalent to six Earthly Gods!”
“Yin Emperor! Uncle Feng! Master Yu! Princess of Lightning! Lord of Thunder! God of Clouds! I alone, controlling the life and death of humans and the elements of wind, clouds, thunder, lightning, and rain!”
Each of the two choices had its advantages and disadvantages.
For instance, directly refining the Divine Power is a one-off deal, but the effects are immediate.
If he were to condense five avatars, they would start off relatively weak, indeed only one-thousandth of the strength of the Five Gods at their peak, but the advantage lies in their potential and strong growth. However, the difficulty lies in where to find and absorb these five different attributes of high-grade energies–wind, cloud, thunder, lightning, and rain?
The ordinary wind, cloud, thunder, lightning, and rain of the human world are probably not enough to allow the five avatars to grow anymore.
Now, Huang Xiaolong was somewhat torn, contemplating which of the two options before him he should choose.
With thoughts flashing through his mind, Huang Xiaolong carefully wrapped the five strands of Divine Power with his divine sense. Then his consciousness slowly penetrated them, and instantly, he fully and vividly felt the profundities of these five kinds of Divine Power–supreme, noble, grand…
Five faint phantoms appeared in Huang Xiaolong’s mind–
An old man with white hair, holding a wheel in his left hand and a fan in his right, forming a wheel-fan shape; this was Uncle Feng.
A burly man with a black beard, holding a bowl in his left hand containing a dragon, sprinkling water with his right hand; this was Master Yu.
A monstrosity with a human head and dragon body, who would produce thunderous sounds when beating its belly; this was the Lord of Thunder.
An elegant-looking woman, holding a mirror in each hand from which radiance shone over the nine heavens and ten lands; this was the Princess of Lightning.
And a strange beast with the body of a deer, head like a sparrow, antlers, a serpentine tail, and a leopard-print body, whose waving hands brought forth billowing clouds; this was the God of Clouds.
Of course, these five phantoms were nothing more than impressions left within the Divine Power and not real entities. But one could still feel a godly light illuminating the firmament, like a heavenly emperor, majestic, overlooking all of heaven and earth with authority!
“Forget it! You were once gods of Earth, and I am now the only deity… Alright! I shall find a way to rebuild the Five Gods! Once again, let there be Uncle Feng! Master Yu! Princess of Lightning! Lord of Thunder! God of Clouds on Earth!” Huang Xiaolong made his choice!
