Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao

Chapter 4684: Pond of Life!

This was their home base, so what need was there to set up a secret passage?

Just how dark is your mentality?

Ling Han mocked internally. He believed that Ah Han definitely couldn’t be so petty. As a dignified Great Emperor, what need was there for him to fear that someone would sneak into the Pond of Life?

Thus, this must have been set up by someone in the later generations.

He followed the old monk into the secret passage, and went all the way downwards. After a very, very long time, the path ahead of him suddenly opened up, revealing an ocean.

This was... the Pond of Life!

Because the power of will of all living beings was too colossal, the energy essence formed actually turned into a boundless ocean.

Impressive.

Just how terrifying was this?

In this world, only the Buddhist Race had such a background. As for the others, even the Chang Clan could not compare.

—In terms of wealth, the Chang Clan was definitely number one, but in terms of the power of faith of all living beings, the Buddhist Race was definitely the strongest.

”Go on,” the old monk said. After saying this, he turned around and left.

To say nothing of the fact that this ”Spirit Devouring Physique” had already reached the upper limit of his cultivation level, even if he hadn’t, starting from zero, he would only be able to absorb a drop of the colossal power of will from all living beings, at most.

However, he would soon know that he had been wrong, and just how overwhelmingly wrong he had been.

Ling Han rubbed his hands together, looking excited.

He could feel that the Seed of the Holy Flame in his mind was also throbbing, as if it could no longer hold itself back.

”Alright, I’ll satisfy you.”

Ling Han leaped up, and flew towards the depths of the great ocean.

He still suppressed his cultivation level, but even a Spirit Transformation Tier was fast enough. Thus, he stopped after a few steps, and then dove into the sea, heading downwards.

Boom, endless energy surged out, pure and vast.

Come on then!

Ling Han did not refuse any of it, and began to absorb madly.

There were only three days, so could the Seed of the Holy Flame be completely ”matured” in that amount of time?

Boom! Endless energy surged into Ling Han’s body and was then absorbed by the Seed of the Holy Flame, and in this process, Ling Han actually didn’t do anything. He only acted as a bridge, pulling the strings between the two of them. ŗâƝ𝐨ʙЁS

He released his restraints, and absorbed with all his might.

A terrifying scene appeared. Visibly, the water level of this great ocean was actually declining!

It should be known that this great ocean was completely formed from energy essence. The decline in the water level was actually the consumption of the energy essence, and in such a wide ocean, the decline in the water level was actually so obvious, which showed how terrifying Ling Han’s swallowing ability was.

And in his mind, the Seed of the Holy Flame was currently throbbing, ready to ”sprout” or ”burn” at any time.

Ling Han didn’t know what would happen, but he believed that once any changes took place, he would definitely be able to ignite the holy flame.

He already had enough Regulations, and was only lacking a little bit of energy.

’Light it up, my holy flame!’

Hong long long, the great ocean howled, forming an endless whirlpool, and the water level was still rapidly receding. The commotion was overwhelmingly great.

This was the Sacred Land, the core area of the Buddhist Race. One could only enter through the Great Emperor Formation, and there was also an old Saint standing guard outside. It could be said that this was one of the safest places in the world.

Who would have thought that an accident would happen here?

Thus, when the water level of the sea had fallen by half, someone finally rushed over. There was not just one, and they were all Saints.

”What’s going on?”

”Why is the Pond of Life’s energy being expended so heavily?”

”Has some great change happened?”

They were stunned, but the energy of the Pond of Life was too colossal. It had turned into a dense mist that rose, greatly affecting the divine sense of the Saints, so they were unable to immediately discover that it was Ling Han who was absorbing the energy.

”Hurry up and check if anyone has entered the Pond of Life recently.”

In just an instant, the answer was revealed.

”Zhang Hanjun?”

”Spirit Devouring Physique?”

”Even if it’s the Spirit Devouring Physique, after reaching the peak stage of the True Self Tier, it’ll be the end.”

”Moreover, even if he starts from the beginning, how cana Spirit Devouring Physique absorb one-ten-thousandth of the energy essence?!”

All the Saints were confused. This was completely inexplicable.

Right at this moment, the old monk also appeared.

”Greetings, Buddha Three Miseries!” When they saw the old monk, the other Saints all paid their respects.

This was a nine-star Saint, a supreme elite that could advance into Pseudo-Emperor at any time.

The old monk nodded. He too looked surprised. Just now, he had gone out for a while, so he had come back a little later. However, he was sure that the only person in the Pond of Life now was Zhang Hanjun.

How could a measly Spirit Transformation Tier cultivator create such a commotion?

”How could it be!” He couldn’t help but let out a hiss, ”Buddha Doga is here!”

Only this great elite knew the Buddhist Race like the back of his hand, and that was why he was able to tread on the Great Emperor formation as if it was flat land, without making a sound.

And it was naturally nothing strange for a Pseudo-Emperor to move and absorb a great amount of the Pond of Life’s energy.

Hearing the words ’Buddha Doga’, the Saints all inhaled sharply.

The Imperial Clan didn’t produce a second Great Emperor. To say nothing of Great Emperors, they didn’t even produce Pseudo-Emperors. It was like a curse.

However, the Buddhist Race had once produced a Pseudo-Emperor, which became the only exception.

Of course, at that time, Buddha Doga and Buddha Ah Han had both become Pseudo-Emperors. However Buddha Ah Han had better luck, or had stronger natural talent, which was why he had advanced another step further, and become a true Great Emperor.

Hence, this kind of example was hard to replicate.

”The energy of the Pond of Life is still being expended!” a Saint shouted. The water level was declining far too quickly.

All the Saints were anxious. It should be known that now that the Netherworld was invading, and countless living beings had died, it would be difficult to harvest the power of belief in future.

—If it was not for the fact that this was the Buddhist decree of Ah Han, it was guaranteed that all these Saints would rebel. Wouldn’t that be destroying their own foundations?

Thus, when they saw the Pond of Life being greatly expended, all the Saints were naturally anxious.

”Hurry up and check out the situation. What on earth is going on?”

All the Saints moved out. Even if it was really Buddha Doga that had come, they still had to fight. They couldn’t allow others to bully them, right?

Moreover, this was Buddhist Land, which had an Imperial Weapon and an Imperial Formation.

”Yi!”

With how fast Saints were, it was not long before they had searched through the Pond of Life, and then located Ling Han.

This!

They could not believe it at all. This was actually the source of everything!

A mere Spirit Transformation Tier cultivator was actually absorbing the energy essence at a terrifying speed.

It should be known that even if it was them doing this, their physical bodies would definitely be crushed by such a colossal amount of energy.

This was accumulated over countless billions of years. Though there had always been a large amount of expenditure, it could not hold up against the Buddhist Race’s continuous expansion of territory, and there was always more profit than expenditure.

As they saw it, this was a suicidal action, but the measly Spirit Transformation Tier below didn’t die, and was still absorbing energy.

”What kind of freak is this?!” a Saint exclaimed in astonishment.

”Could it be that, in this world, there are still mutated Spirit Devouring Physiques that can race madly all the way to the position of Great Emperor?” another Saint said.

It was impossible for Saints to absorb energy like this. It was simply courting death. Hence, if this ”Spirit Devouring Physique” was not about to soar to become Emperor, how could it be explained?

”No matter what it is, we can’t allow him to continue absorbing like this!” the old monk said. ”Pick him up!”

”Yes!” A Saint nodded, and moved to grab out at Ling Han.

Boom, the large hand spread open, like a mountain.
