Monster Paradise

After returning to the Devil Hunter Star Zone, Lin Huang did not go into closed-door cultivation right away.

Throughout the last few days, apart from handling some trivial matters, he had been thinking of how to break through to heavenly god-level.

Ever since early on, while elevating from virtual god-level to true god-level, his method of advancement was already completely different from everyone else.

Others elevated by killing True Gods and igniting their Divine Fire.

However, Lin Huang’s Divine Fire had already been ignited since virtual god-level.

Therefore, he had taken a giant leap when he elevated to true god-level by consolidating a Godly Right with a massive amount of God Rule Power.

Under normal circumstances, individuals only constructed Godly Rights when they elevated from true god-level to heavenly god-level.

Thus, Lin Huang had sabotaged himself by rendering this usual method for advancement completely useless.

“Back then, I constructed my Godly Right through accumulating God Rule Power. In all honesty, it can’t be considered a genuine Godly Right. Based on the situation now, once my capacity for absorbing God Rule Power has reached satiety, I should be able to enter the second stage of a Godly Right and begin accumulating sequence powers.

“Therefore, if I want to elevate to heavenly god-level, I just have to wait for the Godly Right to absorb enough God Rule Power, then I can advance to the second stage—sequence power integration…”

Lin Huang very quickly discovered the way forward for his breakthrough, but he was rather unsatisfied with this method.

“In that case, the amount of sequence power a Godly Right can hold is the same as its capacity for God Rule Power. There’s a limit…

“Is there a way to increase my Godly Right’s capacity so it can hold more sequence power, or else make its capacity infinite?!”

Lin Huang went back and read through the inherited memories of Great Heaven and the Sword Servants. Very soon, he found what he suspected might be an answer.

“So the Godly Right’s maximum capacity is related to the strength of one’s God Territory!”

From the inherited memories, Lin Huang realized that the more powerful the Heavenly Gods killed when constructing the Godly Right, the more powerful the integrated God Territory would be. Not only that, its capacity for containing sequence powers would also be greater.

Apart from the fact that he could consolidate a staggering number of god sequence chains far beyond what ordinary folk could manage—forty-two in total—Great Heaven was powerful also because the Godly Right he constructed was sufficiently mighty.

From first-rank to ninth-rank—from the first time he constructed his Godly Right until the end—he integrated ninth-rank heavenly god-level God Territories during each Godly Right elevation. This bolstered his Godly Right by an increase of eighty-one times its power.

In his God Territory, the maximum number of god sequence chains he could invoke while using his Godly Right was a staggering 3,402 god sequence chains.

His might was sufficient to be a threat to many half-step lord-level powerhouses.

Lin Huang’s cultivation path was already completely different from Great Heaven’s.

He did not need to use his Godly Right for amplification as he had already fully integrated his Godly Right and his God Rule Power. In the future, he would also be integrating god sequence chains.

In other words, this meant he could invoke all of the sequence chains in his God Territory, no matter how many there were.

However, there was a limit to the number of god rules and god sequence chains that a Godly Right could integrate.

For instance, the Godly Right in Lin Huang’s body could integrate a maximum of 1.8 billion god rules. He had accumulated 1.5 billion now; it was fast approaching its limit.

Based on this, Lin Huang could foresee that the number of god sequence chains his Godly Right could integrate in the future would have a limit as well.

However, from the inherited memories of Great Heaven and the others, Lin Huang saw that the Godly Right’s strength could be increased and intensified.

However, from first-rank to ninth-rank, there were only nine chances for his Godly Right to achieve advancement.

In other words, by elevating his Godly Right, he could increase the upper limits of its capacity for integration.

“However, my God Territory has already integrated half-step Lord God Territories. If I want to elevate my Godly Right, using lower-level God Territories won’t work. The only way is to integrate the God Territories of more half-step Lords…”

Step by step, Lin Huang rapidly came up with the solution to his problem.

However, he soon ran into another headache. At his current ability, he was unable to kill half-step Lords. Therefore, the only way to obtain their God Territories was through purchasing them or trading resources.

Half-step Lord God Territories were definitely expensive. In auctions, they were usually sold at the same price as Pseudo-Dao Weapons.

Even if Lin Huang pawned everything he had, he would not be able to afford even a few.

After thinking for a while, he turned on his communicator and called Virtuoso’s number.

After a mere moment, Virtuoso’s figure projected itself in front of Lin Huang.

“You contacted me just in time. I’m officially going into closed-door cultivation tomorrow.” Virtuoso sounded happy; they seemed to be in a good mood. “Is anything the matter?”

“How many half-step Lord God Territories would I be able to trade for the Nirvana Trees that I divided between you and Saber9?” Lin Huang did not bother with small talk and got down to business right away.

Virtuoso was stunned upon hearing that, and their tone became rather odd. “How many? You might not even be able to get one. The price will more or less be considered the starting bid at auction.”

Lin Huang frowned slightly at that. He did not want to pour resources into purchasing a God Territory.

After all, if that were only the starting bid, the final auction price would go up several times over—perhaps even by several dozen times.

“Don’t tell me you want to refine the God Territories of half-step Lords to boost your Godly Right’s amplification?” Virtuoso “saw through” Lin Huang’s intention right away. “Let me tell you, it’s useless. A half-step Lord is still, in essence, a ninth-rank Heavenly God.

“Not just in the universe, but even in the great world where we are now, countless people have tried that. After refining half-step Lord and ninth-rank heavenly god-level God Territories, a Godly Right’s amplification remains the same. Not only that, the refinement takes more than a dozen times longer than refining ninth-rank heavenly god-level God Territories.

“You have sufficient authorization now to do a quick search and find at least several hundred threads on Death Sickle’s forum regarding this matter. It’s common knowledge among Heavenly God and many True Gods.

“If you really want to refine God Territories, Saber9 and I can help you gather nine ninth-rank ones. That will be sufficient to last you until you get to ninth-rank…”

Virtuoso said a great deal more, but Lin Huang let it go in one ear and out the other.

Naturally, he was aware of this common knowledge. However, with his body’s current state, he could only refine half-step Lord God Territories. Ninth-rank ones were of no use to him at all.

“If not, I don’t mind Abyssal half-step Lord God Territories either,” Lin Huang interrupted Virtuoso’s continuing flow of conversation.

“Are you sure you only want half-step Lord ones?” Virtuoso paused, then asked in all seriousness.

“I am.” Lin Huang nodded resolutely.

“Alright then…” Virtuoso did not pursue the matter further. After all, everyone had their own secrets.

“As long as they’re half-step Lord God Territories, that will do. Abyssal ones will work too—if they haven’t been cleansed, that’s not a problem either. Even those that have had their sequence powers sucked dry and are merely an empty shell are fine as well…” Lin Huang extrapolated on his requirements, “Just get me as many as you can.”

“Very well, I’ll think of something.” Virtuoso nodded and added, “The same goes for Saber9 as well?”

“Yes.” Lin Huang nodded.

After ending the call, he felt slightly relieved.

Fortunately, Virtuoso had not asked any sensitive questions, so Lin Huang had no need to fob him off with the answers he had prepared.

However, at least his heart was finally settled.

Abyssal half-step Lord God Territories would be much cheaper, especially those that had yet to be cleansed. He should be able to trade one with the hundred-over Nirvana Trees.

At the very least, he had prepared the most essential component of elevating to heavenly god-level.
