Chapter 1260: Chapter 940 Valiant Death Knights
Blue Skull watched as Ada left, then released waves of blue light, quickly pulling "it" and Su Yu into an independent space.
This space was enveloped in a blue glow, with only Su Yu and Blue Skull existing in it.
"I don’t have much time to waste in this universe, I have a mission that I need to complete... What I can teach you," I think, "should be what you are most urgently in need of right now... and that is Devouring Stars."
The voice from within Blue Skull ended on such a note that it sent a shiver down Su Yu’s spine, causing him to straighten up involuntarily.
In his mind, he recalled the harrowing ability of Blue Skull, which devoured a star in an instant. Could it be, that it was going to impart this very ability to him?
To devour an entire star, such an ability and act, the former Su Yu had never even dreamed of; the most he had aspired to was refining about one percent of a star’s energy, achieving the power of Peak Immortality like the Immortal Aztecs and Tlorlok.
"You have the same attributes as me... or rather it could be said... identical divine natures... Divine nature... is the attribute of a true god. Whatever creature, to transcend, to attain the supreme true godhood, needs to have godlike attributes. Having acquired the attributes of a god is the prerequisite to attaining godhood. What I am going to impart to you is... divine nature."
Each sentence spoken by Blue Skull was more astonishing than the last, and Su Yu did not interject, instead focusing intently on every word Blue Skull spoke, knowing it would only be said once, and to miss it would be to regret for a lifetime.
"One could say that divine nature is the cornerstone of the path to true godhood, but how is divine nature born? And how is it cultivated? Though many speak of it in enigmatic terms, to put it plainly, it’s quite simple. If one day, you truly transcend and achieve true godhood, wouldn’t your attributes become godly attributes? Isn’t that divine nature? Hence, the so-called divine nature is in fact your own attributes. However, as you do not yet possess the realm and power of a true god, your attributes don’t yet qualify as divine nature."
Blue Skull’s words were straightforward, and Su Yu began to understand. Divine nature, plainly put, is the attribute of a god. For someone who aspired to become a deity, divine nature would be the attribute they cultivated, and his current attribute was Golden Thunder and Lightning.
Was the divine nature he needed to refine the Golden Thunder and Lightning?
"When you refine your attribute, Golden Thunder and Lightning, into divine nature... you will have become a god."
Blue Skull said this with a faint smile before raising its voice, "I will say this only once. You must remember the following words with utmost care. Catch as much as you can, for I will not repeat them, nor will I answer your questions. Since that little fellow has said that our encounter is fated, then let’s see to what heights destiny will take you."
Su Yu looked at Blue Skull before him, his expression solemn, and he nodded slightly.
"Devouring stars and refining the energy of stars for your own use — for you at this moment, it’s like a tiny bottle attempting to hold the boundless water of the great ocean. How many years and how much time would it take to fill it, one bottle at a time?"
Su Yu didn’t speak, listening quietly, experiencing the gravity of Blue Skull’s words. He slightly nodded, recognizing that, with his current speed of refining Thunder, refining the Thunder and Lightning Sun would indeed be as lengthy a process as scooping up the ocean with a bottle.
"If the ultimate goal of using a bottle to hold water is to merge it with the ocean, then why laboriously fill the bottle drop by drop to achieve this purpose?"
Blue Skull’s voice paused, and Su Yu, caught off guard, couldn’t help saying, "What other method is there to refine the energy of a star’s sun..."
Blue Skull’s voice lightly chuckled before continuing, "When the bottle is filled with water, open the cap, and throw it into the ocean. The water inside the bottle will become one with the sea, merging bottle and ocean, no longer distinguishable. The ocean becomes the bottle; the bottle becomes the ocean."
Su Yu was profoundly shaken, suddenly widening his eyes as an unparalleled vision seemed to unfold before him.
"What I will teach you is how to open the bottle’s cap. Once the cap is opened, the water inside can merge with the water outside. Remember, the capacity of the bottle is ultimately finite, no matter how much you refine the bottle, no matter how much you expand its volume, there will always be a limit. Do not delude yourself with the idea of holding everything in the world within your bottle. Think not of refining stars to claim their energy as your own, but rather to coexist with them, to respect the soul of the stars, to become friends with them..."
Blue Skull’s words grew more obscure, and Su Yu said nothing, embedding every line in his heart. According to legends, some planets could birth souls and were known as the Spirit of the Planet. Thus, if a planet could have a soul, could a star also posses a Spirit of the Star?
But was the form of soul existence simply beyond their comprehension, unnoticeable and unintelligible to them?
Listening to the words that came from the Blue Skull, Su Yu encountered a new world he had never even thought of before, and the Blue Skull spoke more and more rapidly. The being within the Blue Skull finally began to earnestly teach him the so-called method of "unsealing the bottle cap," that is, how to integrate and command the power of the stars more swiftly.
This method was only suitable for the attribute of Golden Thunder and Lightning and would only be effective if passed on to Su Yu. This was also why Ada believed that Su Yu would be the most qualified, or even the only disciple, for the being within the Blue Skull.
However, despite the Blue Skull’s admiration for Su Yu, it did not take him as its disciple.
Nobody knew what the being inside the Blue Skull was thinking.
Deep in the vast void of the starry universe, there existed a planet-sized, semi-translucent Light Sphere. Enveloped by the sphere, a majestic city of planetary scale floated in space.
At this moment, the white-robed elder with short white whiskers, the sole survivor of the eight white-robed men and women who had once pursued the Master of Rules, was carrying out the commands of his "master." Cradling a golden ball of flames, he finally saw, in this grand city, the "her" his "master" had ordered him to find.
Of course, the White-robed Elder didn’t actually see "her" true face. The golden ball of flames he was carrying was passed upward, and after that, he was invited into a palace supported by twelve white jade pillars that floated in the sky.
At the head of the palace, a white light curtain sealed off the throne, preventing the White-robed Elder from seeing the figure seated there clearly. However, staring at the sacred and holy light curtain, he faintly sensed that this power stemmed from the same source as the rule-bending power they wielded.
"Since it’s a request from ’that person,’ I naturally cannot delay. I now need to know the detailed information about the Master of Rules, the more detailed, the better,"
A woman’s voice came from within the white light screen at the head of the hall. Her voice was incredibly melodious and pleasant, like music from heaven, but if one listened closely, there was a subtle hint of seductiveness.
The White-robed Elder didn’t dare to let his thoughts wander, only respectfully saying, "This Master of Rules, whose real name is Beth Finley, was originally a disciple taught by us, the Guardians of Rules. But now she has control over the nine great rules. That aside, what’s most terrifying is that she has stolen ’that person’s’ Spear of Orthodoxy, and now, the Absolute Shield has also fallen into her hands. Besides these, by her side, there is a human with at least High Immortality, and even Peak Immortality, as well as a Category 5 Lifeform with at least the strength of High Immortality. As for the others, they are not worth worrying about."
"Oh? A Category 5 Lifeform with High Immortality that has reached the limit of its category... that’s quite rare..."
The pleasant and seductive-sounding woman’s voice gave a light chuckle, "A few high immortals are not worth fearing, but since that Beth Finley has obtained the Spear of Orthodoxy and Absolute Shield, she might be a bit troublesome. Are you telling me your ’master’ sent you to find me..."
The voice conveyed an indescribable pride, and the White-robed Elder didn’t dare say much more, only lowering his head and responding with a "yes."
The seductive woman’s voice paused slightly before suddenly saying, "Kenton, what do you think?"
The White-robed Elder in the palace was slightly startled upon hearing this and was momentarily puzzled. However, he quickly understood, because another, deeper male voice emerged from within the light screen: "I think this is a good opportunity to test the Valiant Death Knights we’ve trained. Let’s see the results of the training."
Realizing that there were actually two persons, a man and a woman, at the head of the hall, the White-robed Elder now understood that the man was clearly the one named "Kenton."
The woman with the seductive voice immediately smiled, "That’s a great idea. Kenton, you will be in charge of the specifics. It would be best to have this latest batch undergo training. These few immortals, along with the power of the two divine artifacts, indeed make for decent training."
"Hmm..." The man called Kenton, with a rather deep voice, responded with a grunt and then fell silent.
"Then that’s decided. Yes, do you know the current whereabouts of the Master of Rules?" The last sentence was directed at the White-robed Elder standing in the hall.
The White-robed Elder hesitated for a moment before replying, "I recently had a confrontation with the Master of Rules and even lost some comrades to her. Given this karmic tie, I believe that by finding the Four-eyed Clan’s Sky Eye and the Bimon Ancestor, we should be able to ascertain their exact location within a few short days."
