Originally, when Beirut had said a Demigod was inferior to a God, that was just in one-on-one combat.
In reality, for someone like Linley, it was as though he had two divine clones that were joining forces.
“The Godrealm of two divine clones layered atop each other might not be able to completely counteract the Godrealm of a full God, but the restrictive power will be much less. At that point, you can rely on your techniques and your profound mysteries to reach a level of parity with my big brother.” Leylin said.
Linley now felt a surge of excitement in his heart.
So having additional divine clones had this benefit as well.
Since Linley had to quietly train on utilizing the ‘Throbbing Pulse of the World’ for attacking techniques, he naturally would no longer spar with the bald man, Burgess. Bebe didn’t disturb Linley’s meditations either. Normally, he would spar with the white-robed man in a place that was fairly far away.
Within the mountain gorge. Linley was by himself.
“The forbidden-level spell, ‘Pulsating Guard’, controls the ‘pulsating power’ which the earth contains.” Once that forbidden-level spell was cast, it would create a seemingly translucent barrier. This was formed from the ‘pulsating power’ which the earth naturally contained.
In the past, Linley didn’t understand how this ‘pulsating power’ was created.
“In the past, I believed this pulsating power isn’t the same as ordinary elemental essence, and was a new type of force. But now it seems…it just needs to be transformed.” After completely understanding the ‘Throbbing Pulse of the World’, Linley saw many things clearly. “In using the Throbbing Pulse of the World, aside from using vibrations to attack, I should be able to use this pulsating power to attack.”
Linley stood atop the earth, the divine power in his body surging.
That strange pulsating power passed through Linley’s feet into the earth, then broadcast outwards towards the deep pool in front of him.
“BOOM!” Water erupted forth from the pool.
“This sort of attack is silent and gives no warning.” Linley had a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth. “If I were to train for a while longer, it should become even more powerful.”
Rohault Empire. Within that secluded manor.
“Linley is actually training by himself?” Sadista had spread his divine sense out towards Mount Copper Gong once again. Naturally, he discovered that Linley was training alone. “This Linley truly is formidable. He has reached the Demigod stage in the Laws of the Earth as well.”
Sadista’s eyes revealed a cold light.
The greater Linley’s potential was, the more Sadista wanted to kill him.
“I definitely cannot permit Linley to go to the Infernal Realm and return to the Indigo Prefecture.” Sadista was certain on this point. “There are only two Gods at Mount Copper Gong. If Anras moves fast enough, he should be able to kill Linley in a short amount of time.”
Sadista was still fairly confident in Anras.
This was because Anras trained in the Elemental Laws of Fire, famed for attack power.
“Anras…” Sadista immediately reached out with his divine sense towards Anras.
Tonight was a dark and cloudy night. The wind was very strong.
A human figure was flying in mid-air at high speed. It was the red-robed Anras. Anras stared towards the south. “After waiting for so long, the opportunity has finally come.” Just now, Sadista had provided him with Linley’s location and a map through his divine sense.
Anras knew exactly where Linley was.
A faint red light began to glow in the eyes of Anras.
Soon, Mount Copper Gong appeared within Anras’ field of vision. Anras’ face grew still colder. He was very familiar with Mount Copper Gong’s layout. He easily sped downwards, passing through the mountain forests and drawing near the location where Linley was training in the gorge.
Within that manor formed from earth elemental essence.
“That arrogant fellow. He had been spreading his divine sense over to investigate time and time again. So he really did have nefarious intentions.” Leylin let out a calm laugh. Sadista had thought that no one would notice his repeated divine sense investigations in the area, but what he didn’t know was that Leylin had been fully aware of him.
“The person who came this time should be a subordinate.” Leylin wasn’t worried at all.
“A God. This is a chance to see how Linley’s strength has advanced. I wonder if he’ll be able to resist.” In the end, Leylin still disappeared from within his courtyard. In truth, Anras was much closer to Linley’s gorge than he had been.
And yet…
Leylin arrived first.
In the gorge where Linley was training. Linley was absorbed in his meditations. But suddenly, he felt the ground vibrate slightly.
“Huh?” Confused, Linley stopped his training.
“What’s going on?” Linley didn’t understand what problem had just appeared.
Only, Linley didn’t know that at the corner of the gorge, a rock had suddenly appeared. This rock was emanating a faint earthen aura. “Best to watch from here. Otherwise, if Linley were to die, then things would really get a bit tricky. Oh. That God has arrived.”
