Chapter 46: Super Divine Artifact, Life Guardian Divine Armor!
In his palm, the brilliant golden sphere, which gathered the essence of the plane's life and was inscribed with the Law of Life, trembled slightly, emitting a clear hum that resonated with Lei Chen's heartbeat as if it were alive.
With a slight thought from Lei Chen, the brilliant golden sphere turned into a warm stream of light, spreading like flowing mercury and instantly covering his entire body. Wherever the light passed, a set of full-body armor that fit his form perfectly quietly emerged.
The entire armor displayed a deep and noble dark gold color. It was not the cold, hard luster of metal, but rather like the texture of ancient divine wood or an extension of life's pathways, flowing with a soft and restrained glow.
Wearing the complete set of armor, Lei Chen did not feel the slightest weight or restraint. Instead, he felt as if he had put on a layer of life's skin, fitting perfectly. Vast and gentle life energy circulated inside and outside the armor, connecting his breath with that of the entire plane.
After sensing the changes brought by the armor for a moment, a satisfied curve couldn't help but tug at the corner of Lei Chen's mouth.
"Gathering the essence of the plane's Gold of Life, nurtured by the Life Core, and inscribed with the Law of Life... This armor shall be named—'Life Guardian Divine Armor'."
He softly decided on the name for this set of armor, and the grade of this "Life Guardian Divine Armor" had surprisingly reached the level of a Super Divine Artifact!
This was no exaggeration. One must know that even a small piece of naturally formed, unrefined Gold of Life, with its vast vitality and immortal properties, would already be equivalent to an ordinary divine artifact.
To forge this armor, Lei Chen had gathered almost all the Gold of Life scattered throughout the Douluo Plane. He had nurtured it day and night for over half a year with the plane's Life Core, and finally, using his authority as the Plane Master, he branded the most fundamental laws of "Life" and "Creation" of the Douluo Plane into it.
With so many heaven-defying conditions stacked together and so much effort expended, the final achievement of a Super Divine Artifact was truly a natural and logical outcome.
As a Super Divine Artifact-grade armor, the basic defensive power of the Life Guardian Divine Armor went without saying; it was enough to withstand the fierce attacks of experts of the same level without budging. However, its most powerful and core characteristic was not simple sturdiness, but rather what its name implied—"Life Guardian"!
Putting on this armor was equivalent to being granted a layer of nearly eternal "undying" blessing.
No matter how severe the injury, with the support of the terrifying life force contained within the "Life Guardian Divine Armor"—which could be considered a plane-level reserve—it could be repaired instantly at an incredible speed.
Even if it encountered an instant-death attack, such as soul annihilation or origin collapse—injuries that would mean certain death even for god-level experts—the "Life Guardian Divine Armor" could forcibly lock in the wearer's last shred of vitality and sustain their life.
It could be said that with this Super Divine Artifact, Lei Chen's survivability would be maxed out, reaching a height that would drive others to despair. As long as the plane did not completely collapse and the Law of Life were not entirely annihilated, it would be difficult for him to die!
Lei Chen was very satisfied with this masterpiece he had forged himself. Then, with a thought, the dark golden light flowed, and the "Life Guardian Divine Armor" quietly vanished into his body. He then fully expanded his perception as the Plane Master, covering the entire Douluo Plane like an invisible tide.
During this past half-year, his main energy had been focused on forging the "Life Guardian Divine Armor," and the part of his consciousness he had set aside only paid attention to a few key areas of this plane.
Now that the divine artifact was complete, he naturally had to take a good look at how his plane had developed under the new rules and his guidance over the past half-year.
His vast and boundless will, like an invisible tide, instantly swept across the entire Douluo Douluo, passing over mountains, rivers, cities, villages, sects, and families... Countless streams of information flowed into Lei Chen's heart, where they were quickly organized and analyzed.
When his perception swept over certain specific areas, the expression on his face couldn't help but become somewhat subtle, carrying a sense of "as expected" realization, yet mixed with a hint of surprise at the efficiency of these fellows' actions.
"Heh... These guys are quite fast, and they're certainly 'decisive' enough."
Lei Chen muttered to himself, his gaze seemingly piercing through the void to see certain "little maneuvers" recently made by Shrek Academy and the Body Sect.
In his perception, not long ago, the higher-ups of Shrek Academy had used either coercion or inducement to "exchange" for the essence of the core inheritance, the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, from the already declining Tang Sect, especially the cultivation method of the Purple Demon Eye, which was said to nurture Spiritual power and enhance spiritual awareness.
On the Body Sect's side, their style of action was even more direct and overbearing.
Du Busi personally led several sect elders to the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School. Relying on his level 99 tyrannical strength, through a mix of negotiation and pressure, he actually forced the long-standing Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School to "voluntarily" share its sect's secret technique, the Nine Aperture Glazed Heart, which could enhance Spiritual power.
Although this development was completely within Lei Chen's expectations, seeing their actions be so swift still caught him a bit by surprise.
This situation was actually quite normal because when Lei Chen had gathered the seven powerhouses in the Undead Demi-plane, he had clearly stated what a demi-god was: as long as the physical body transformed into a divine body or the Spiritual power transformed into divine sense, achieving either one would make one a demi-god.
The speaker might have been indifferent, but the listeners were certainly attentive. Mu En and those other old monsters who had been stuck at the level 99 bottleneck for many years—which of them wasn't as shrewd as a fox?
They immediately thought at the time: since achieving either one makes one a demi-god, then if both the physical body and the spirit transform, reaching a realm where one possesses both a divine body and divine sense, wouldn't that directly make one a true level 100 deity?
However, at that time, Lei Chen only had Du Busi go public with The Innate Secret Method for cultivating the divine body, but he did not provide a supreme method specifically for cultivating Spiritual power. Thus, they could only find a way themselves. Naturally, the first ones targeted were the Tang Sect's Purple Demon Eye and the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School's Nine Aperture Glazed Heart method.
The Tang Sect's Purple Demon Eye needs no further explanation; it can enhance one's Spiritual power by absorbing the purple qi from the east every morning. After cultivating it to the Great Perfection level, Spiritual power can be raised to the limit, only one step away from transforming into divine sense.
As for the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School's Nine Aperture Glazed Heart method, ten thousand years ago it was only the Seven Aperture Exquisite Heart. It was created by Ning Rongrong after she became a god, based on the sect's original method. It is also a technique that can cultivate Spiritual power to the limit.
It's just that in the past, Soul Masters on the Douluo Douluo did not place much importance on the enhancement of Spiritual power, so no one had targeted these two methods before.
But now, in order to cultivate divine sense, Shrek and the Body Sect have indeed each shown their prowess to get their hands on these two secret techniques. Although their methods differed, in the face of the huge temptation of breaking through to the god level, these worldly rules and sentiments have clearly been temporarily set aside by them.
