Chapter 1656: The Mysterious Gift

Days passed in the Great Heaven Palace.

Soon, the days turned into months.

Given that time had been accelerated ten thousand times, less than twenty minutes had passed in the outside world.

Lin Huang returned from the God Territory within him to the Ricky Star. He poured himself a drink that the hotel had prepared and slowly walked to the hotel balcony.

He sat on a deckchair, sipping his drink. As he looked up at the starry sky, his thoughts were already drifting.

He had almost finished his drink when he felt a sudden premonition.

Lancelot and the other two had awakened one after the other in the Great Heaven Palace.

Lin Huang put down his drink. He returned to the God Territory within him in a flash and appeared in the Great Heaven Palace.

He saw all three imperial monsters, now out of their cocoons, and their auras were quite different from before. They were also countless times stronger.

The three of them were checking through their own transformations in delight.

Meanwhile, their cards had popped up in front of Lin Huang.

…

“Combat Strength: Ninth-Rank Heavenly God”

“Major: Control”

…

“Monster Card: Lancelot”

“Rarity: Pure Spirit”

“Combat Strength: Ninth-Rank Heavenly God”

“Major: Sword Dao”

“Major Skills: Supreme Sword Master, Darkest Sword Spirit, Sword Dao Holy Method, Sword Kingdom…”

“Minor Skills: Sword Steps, Dark Mirror…”

“Summon Authority: Activated”

“Card Remarks: Please spare no efforts in cultivating this!”

The three cards clearly showed that the three of them were Pure Spirit rank-6 now.

Not only that, their combat strength had advanced as well. They had been directly elevated to ninth-rank heavenly god-level.

Lin Huang made a thorough check through the other information changes on the cards.

Their skill panels were already densely packed.

For main cultivation path skills alone, there were already over one hundred of them listed on the main skill branch. As for supporting skills, altogether they came to almost a thousand.

Their secondary cultivation path skills were even more numerous—there were over one hundred and fifty core skills on the main skill branch and two to three thousand supporting skills.

Lin Huang only discovered after checking through the skill descriptions that the main skill branch was comprised of the main skills derived from the god sequence chains that Lancelot and the others had fully mastered.

In other words, the three of them had mastered over two hundred god sequence chains.

One must know that someone as powerful as Great Heaven—who had dominated the great world for an entire era—had only mastered forty-two god sequence chains at ninth-rank heavenly god-level back in the day. Even Buried Heaven, who had recently elevated to become a Lord, had only manifested twenty-seven god sequence chains during his unification.

The number of god sequence chains the three imperial monsters had mastered at present was almost tenfold the number that Buried Heaven had mastered.

One could well imagine that if their abilities were placed within the great world, the three of them would be able to subdue all enemies who were under lord-level.

Lin Huang was rather shocked as he stared at the three cards.

He was not shocked by the number of god sequence chains they had mastered but by the effect of the Advance Cards.

Previously, he had not paid too much attention to the connection between Rule Bending Powers and sequence powers in the main branch of the imperial monsters’ skill trees.

Only now was he finally able to see the connection clearly.

It turned out that the Advance Cards could simultaneously bestow terrifying inheritances upon the imperial monsters during their elevation, including Rule Bending Powers and god sequence chains.

That was also why Lancelot and the others did not need to spend time consolidating god sequence chains. Their god sequence chains had skyrocketed to over two hundred in number from just the initial twenty or so god sequence chains that they had mastered.

After ascertaining this, Lin Huang was even slightly envious of this group of imperial monsters.

‘What a great thing—to be able to immediately become so powerful without needing to cultivate!’

Naturally, Lin Huang could only think such a thing in secret; it would not be very nice to verbalize it.

It would hurt Lancelot and the other two’s self-esteem if he said it out loud.

“How are you feeling?” Lin Huang asked, smiling faintly.

“I feel invincible!” Charcoal’s eyes lit up. He looked like he was eager to find someone to spar with.

“That’s merely an illusion caused by your abilities skyrocketing.” Lin Huang poured cold water on this notion at once.

Charcoal’s moment of enthusiasm was immediately doused.

“I’m so much more powerful now. I probably can battle a half-step Lord if I encounter one,” Lancelot thought about it and gave his opinion.

Lin Huang shook his head still after hearing what Lancelot said.

“All of you still haven’t grasped the disparity between Heavenly Gods and Lords. A Heavenly God’s Godly Right can only be used within his own God Territory. However, a Lord’s Godly Right has been integrated with a Dao seal, so it can be used outside the God Territory and still have a boosting effect.

“Right now, you’ve mastered over two hundred and fifty god sequence chains. In the God Territory, with the addition of the Godly Right, that would be an effect of an eighty-onefold boost. In other words, the actual effect would be equivalent to over twenty thousand chains. This number certainly surpasses that of all half-step Lords and most lower-rank Lords. However, you’d only have two hundred and fifty or so chains outside the God Territory.

“Although those Lords and half-step Lords haven’t inherently mastered as many god sequence chains as you have, they can use their Godly Right outside their God Territory. With the Godly Right’s boosting effect, they’ll far exceed your abilities.”

“Which means all we’ve got to do during battles is to drag the opponent into our God Territory, then we’ll be invincible.” Grimace gave an eerie grin from where he was standing off to the side.

“You could look at it that way.” Lin Huang glanced at Grimace and added, “But don’t underestimate any enemy. Those half-step Lords and Lords certainly aren’t going to let you drag them into your God Territory so easily.”

Lin Huang chatted with the three of them for a little, and the subject soon expanded to include talking about the gift for elevating to ninth-rank heavenly god-level.

“Boss, all of us have elevated to ninth-rank heavenly god-level now. What’s this gift that you said would definitely delight us?!” Charcoal asked, his face full of anticipation.

Although Lancelot and Grimace said nothing, their ears had obviously perked up, worried that they might miss out on something.

Lin Huang glanced at the three of them and thought they looked rather comical.

He decided not to keep it a secret any longer and directly told them what it was.

“The gift… is to directly elevate you to become Lords!”

The three of them were stunned when they heard this. They thought they had misheard or that Lin Huang was just joking with them.

“Boss, please don’t joke about such a thing.” Charcoal gave two forced laughs and stared at Lin Huang in a shifty manner. He did not believe Lin Huang but still harbored some faint hopes.

“Who says I’m joking?” Lin Huang raised his brows.

“You aren’t joking?!” Charcoal bellowed at the top of his voice. He was so thrilled he almost overturned the roof.

“Can you really do that?” Grimace also found this hard to believe.

“Isn’t this kind of elevation considered to be forcing things to happen before we’re ready?” Lancelot asked. He was the calmest of the three.

After all, it had not even been a day since the three of them had elevated to ninth-rank heavenly god-level. He felt that elevating his current abilities again would be proceeding too quickly.

“Don’t worry, there won’t be any side effect.” The certainty of Lin Huang’s tone set the three imperial monsters at ease.

At least up until now, Lin Huang had never yet disappointed his imperial monsters.

“You can go into closed-door cultivation with your minds at ease. When you finish, you’ll be my right-hand men.” When Lin Huang finished speaking, three Lord Elevation Cards had already appeared in his hands.

He crushed the cards an instant later.

The three cards turned into three streams of light and penetrated through the brows of the three imperial monsters…
