Chapter 355 -355-The Mental State of a Peak Sage, Group Battle
The Realm Beyond the Shore.
Daniel had just finished digesting that vast amount of information and had yet to carefully savor it.
Boom!
Another torrent of information, thousands of times more violent than the previous one, came crashing down like the overturning of the entire starsea, forcefully flooding into the depths of his consciousness!
This information was even more mysterious and even more profound.
In a daze, Daniel felt as though he had transformed into the world will of this very world!
He was born with his first consciousness amid hazy chaos. Countless strands of Law power coiled around him like swimming fish, swiftly absorbed, assimilated, and fused into his being.
He personally witnessed the birth of the Astral Realm, from the first wisp of starlight condensed from Chaotic Essence, to the formation of the first continent, and then to the spreading of the web of Laws.
He witnessed the original forms of the Laws, as well as how they evolved, combined, and developed into deeper mysteries.
Everything happened naturally, as though he had been born knowing it, without even needing to learn.
And while he was lost in that state of self-forgetfulness, system prompts had already exploded countless times in succession.
[Ding... You have obtained divine energy +100 billion!]
[Ding... You have obtained divine energy +100 billion!]
[Ding... You have obtained divine energy +100 billion!]
...
Within that mysterious Rank, time seemed to lose all meaning.
At a certain moment, he finally finished receiving all the information and slowly opened his eyes.
At this moment, he felt that his comprehension of the world will had at least reached the level of peak Divine-grade.
This time, it was no longer an enhancement granted to him by the system, but divine energy that he had truly comprehended on his own from the information of the world will.
The difference between the two was as vast as a heavenly chasm!
In other words, even if he lost the system from this moment onward, Daniel’s own comprehension of the Path of the World had already reached the height of peak Divine-grade.
It was just that he had not yet constructed his sage rank, so his Strength had not fully matched his Rank.
Daniel let out a long breath, and his consciousness completely returned.
Now, when he looked at the towering stone tablets before him again, he saw something completely different.
"These stone tablets... are fragments of the world will Laws. Eight stone tablets, meaning eight fragments."
A smile appeared at the corner of Daniel’s mouth, filled with clarity and confidence.
"I understand now."
"When the eight fragments are combined, they become a complete Holy Relic. Perhaps I can create a greater Sacred Art from them!"
Thinking of this, he slowly stood up. His tall figure cast a sharp silhouette beneath the shadow of the stone tablet.
"Immortal Icon—!"
Boom—!
Daniel’s body rapidly expanded. His muscles and bones seemed to be infused with the Strength of stars, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed into a hundred-thousand-meter-tall giant supporting the heavens.
The stone tablets that had originally towered into the clouds suddenly seemed somewhat small in his eyes, like stone pillars before a temple compared to a giant god.
He stretched out a massive hand, his five fingers locking onto the edge of a stone tablet.
"Rise!"
Rumble—!
The entire Realm Beyond the Shore shook violently. The earth cracked, and the void trembled.
That stone tablet was pulled out from the ground, as easily as uprooting a stalk of wild grass.
Whoosh—!
"Hmm?"
"Courting death!?"
His action immediately drew furious glares from every powerhouse present.
The way those powerhouses looked at him was like they were staring at a madman desecrating something sacred.
Those stone tablets were supreme Holy Relics in their hearts, sacred objects that allowed them to comprehend Laws and break through their Ranks!
Was this otherworldly being trying to monopolize them?
Unforgivable!
In their eyes, Daniel’s actions were far too arrogant.
The Realm Beyond the Shore had always been peaceful and harmonious precisely because the eight sacred tablets suppressed it.
Those eight sacred tablets were the most important opportunity in the core plane of the Astral Realm. They were a gate open to all living beings, a shared fortune.
Almost every powerhouse who stepped into this place could obtain tremendous gains from the stone tablets.
Some comprehended a Sacred Art. Others broke through an entire Rank.
In pursuit of higher and deeper Ranks, these native beings were willing to sit here in silence and absorb nourishment.
But now...
A newly arrived otherworldly being actually dared to target the sacred tablets?
Was this not courting death?
Whoosh, whoosh—!
More than ten peak Divine-grade powerhouses surrounded Daniel like a group of enraged eagles.
They unfolded their sage ranks, and terrifying auras pressed over him like a storm covering heaven and earth.
Vincent reacted extremely quickly. Almost the instant those powerhouses surrounded Daniel, he flew to Daniel’s side and stood shoulder to shoulder with him, facing the dozen-plus peak Divine-grade powerhouses together.
"Faustus, what are you doing..."
Vincent frowned tightly and asked in confusion.
"Combining them."
Daniel’s tone was calm.
Vincent’s gaze fell on the stone tablet Daniel had pulled out.
"Combining eight stone tablets into one? That is an interesting idea."
"But with so many peak Divine-grade powerhouses eyeing you like tigers, are you not afraid at all?"
The sage ranks of more than ten peak Divine-grade powerhouses surged over like waves, making the void tremble faintly.
Daniel smiled.
"What do you think?"
Peak Divine-grade?
Heh!
"Chaotic Reincarnation—!"
"Titan Body—!"
"Immortal Icon—!"
"Voidbound Grail—!"
"Basin of Greed—!"
Daniel revealed all his trump cards at once.
The Voidbound Grail hung high in the sky, sending out rings of Law ripples that firmly sealed this stretch of heaven and earth.
The Basin of Greed hovered on the other side, like a greedy eye scanning the secret treasures of every powerhouse present.
Ninety-nine clones simultaneously activated Immortal Icon and Titan Body, transforming into ninety-nine ten-thousand-meter giants, like an army of titans walking out from legendary-grade myth!
"Kill—!"
With a great shout, Daniel led one hundred giants charging fiercely toward the dozen-plus powerhouses.
"Forget it. I’ll go mad with you this once—!"
After hesitating for a moment, Vincent summoned his Divine Domain without hesitation and joined the battle.
Vincent saw the situation clearly. Both he and Daniel were otherworldly beings, and these native residents had already been angered. It would be difficult to settle this peacefully.
Daniel’s actions had already tied him to the same war chariot.
Rather than stand aside and watch, he might as well follow Daniel into battle!
In any case, this was not his first time doing something like this.
Rumble—!
The moment those dozen-plus "peak Divine-grade" powerhouses clashed with Daniel, all illusions shattered.
It turned out that these powerhouses were not truly peak Divine-grade at all.
They were merely wearing false auras of peak Divine-grade.
Their true strength was only high-grade sage.
High-grade?
To Daniel, that was nothing more than a string of numbers.
The Voidbound Grail was like an invisible shackle, continuously weakening the Strength of those native powerhouses.
The Basin of Greed was like a starving cat, forcibly snatching away all the Divine-grade secret treasures of the native powerhouses.
It erased the old marks on them and branded them with Daniel’s mark. In the blink of an eye, those treasures changed owners and obediently fell into the basin.
Daniel’s clones and true body charged through the enemy ranks like tigers entering a flock of sheep.
"Celestial Grasp—!"
One heaven-covering giant palm after another slammed into those powerhouses.
The lighter ones were heavily injured and collapsed to the ground.
The worse ones were beaten until they were barely breathing.
Before long, the one hundred giants had killed all fourteen high-grade Divine-grade powerhouses, leaving not a single one alive.
[Ding! You have killed fourteen Divine-grade powerhouses... Detected that you have performed a selling action. Millionfold Boost triggered! In total, you have obtained Origin Crystal ×57.69 million cubic units and Primal Spirit ×12 billion points!]
