The end of Gaowu: Becoming stronger from not practicing

"Teacher Yan has successfully arrived at the God-level Continent."

The jade pendant in Zhang Lingfeng's hand was shimmering.

This is a communication artifact that he, his master, and several other weapon refiners crafted together.

Because of the long distance.

The data transmitted back is delayed and intermittent.

Zhang Lingfeng received Yan Fei's message twenty years after Yan Fei arrived on the God-level Continent.

At first, to avoid being found out by Baturu, Yan Fei only sent the message "Arrived safely".

Fifty years later, a second message arrived. By the time this message reached Zhang Lingfeng, eighty years had already passed since Yan Fei arrived on the God-level Continent.

"Divine body."

This time there's a lot of information.

But it was only a short three or four hundred words.

Some of the information was carried away by time and space due to the great distance, and the sentences were not fluent. Zhang Lingfeng had to think carefully before he could understand what Yan Fei was saying.

"It turns out that cultivators on the God-level Continent are all cultivating divine bodies. Although I do not have a method for cultivating divine bodies, I have refined the power of the Heavenly Dao of the world above, and I will eventually forge a divine body."

However, the divine body level should be the lowest level of existence.

At that time, I will be freed from the world above.

When he wants to return to the Upper World, he must leave his divine body on the God-level Continent and is not allowed to bring it back. At that time, he can reshape another physical body and descend to the Upper World. There will be no problem with his control over the Heavenly Dao here, and he will still be the most powerful true god in the Upper World.

Zhang Lingfeng's expression was solemn.

Baturu's murderous intent towards him was now fully revealed.

If I were to enter the God-level Continent and encounter this guy, I would surely die.

Fifty years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Yan Fei sent back the third message.

When Zhang Lingfeng received the third message, Yan Fei had already been on the God-level Continent for 170 years. Through the content of the message, Zhang Lingfeng learned that the divine body was of paramount importance.

Yan Fei had already come into contact with the Divine Body Cultivation Method, but unfortunately, despite trying various methods, he was unable to record the Divine Body Cultivation Method in the communication jade pendant and send it back.

Information content is forcibly injected each time.

Jade pendants used for communication can all malfunction.

Yan Fei was worried that the communication jade pendant would be destroyed, so he stopped trying.

The message indicated another passage for Zhang Lingfeng to enter the God-level Continent, thus preventing Zhang Lingfeng's arrival from attracting the attention of Baturu.

This information was crucial to Zhang Lingfeng.

Zhang Lingfeng was very grateful.

He was unable to reply to Yan Fei's messages.

Any fluctuations transmitted from the world above could arouse Baturu's suspicion and bring unnecessary trouble to Yan Fei.

Time flies.

Another century has passed in the blink of an eye.

Yan Fei has been in the God-level Continent for three hundred years.

Zhang Lingfeng also received Yan Fei's fourth message.

Yan Fei told Zhang Lingfeng that although he had come into contact with the Divine Body Cultivation Method, it was very difficult to forge a Divine Body. The Divine Body was extremely difficult to cultivate, especially for those who initially adopted a cultivation system different from that of the people on the Divine Continent.

Even though he created his own physical cultivation method and became the only physical immortal emperor in the upper world, he encountered a bottleneck in physical evolution. Despite having a divine body cultivation method to cultivate, it was still difficult for him to transform his physical body into a divine body.

It was later explained by Baturu.

For a physical body to transform into a divine body, divine power must first emerge within it.

Only by possessing divine power can one's physical body undergo a transformation, becoming a divine body.

This discovery was crucial for Yan Fei.

The message stated that divine power had already formed within Yan Fei's body, and he would dedicate the next few hundred years to striving for a divine body.

Secondly, the jade pendant for communication also malfunctioned.

The transmitted information was fragmented.

Yan Fei didn't know how many more times it could be used.

He instructed Zhang Lingfeng that when entering the God-level Continent, he must choose to enter through another passage and not be caught by Baturu.

Zhang Lingfeng could only pray that Yan Fei would soon achieve a divine body.

Time flies.

Two hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Value of lying flat: 2.6 million

Divine Power: 10.0
The First Part of the Seventh-Level Soul Essence Cultivation Method: (56/100)

Soul element: 16378
Realm: Level 7 Soul Master, True God

After many years of effort.

The "lying flat" value has once again accumulated to over 200 million.

Unfortunately, since becoming a true god, obtaining "lying down value" has become extremely difficult, resulting in a very small amount of it. Otherwise, if it were in the past, hundreds of years of accumulation would easily amount to at least a billion, if not several billion.

But Zhang Lingfeng felt fortunate.

After refining the Heavenly Dao Laws of the world above, divine power also appeared within Zhang Lingfeng's body.

Unfortunately, the value is only 10.0.

Zhang Lingfeng felt that he lacked cultivation techniques.

There's also an additional column for Divine Body stats, which is only 10%.

It seems that only when the divine power value reaches 100 can the divine body value reach 100%. Zhang Lingfeng doesn't know if he currently possesses a divine body.

But I can already feel the world's repulsive power.

And a summons from the divine continent.

He needs to make the necessary preparations.

Although Zhang Lingfeng didn't contact Yan Fei often, Yan Fei told him a crucial piece of information.

That is the power of soul essence, which is also very important in the god-level continent.

To forge a divine weapon, you'll need the help of a Soul Master.

Blacksmiths are a highly sought-after and prestigious profession in the God-level Continent.

Powerful Soul Masters can inscribe divine runes on the God-level Continent to enhance their strength or use them for attack and defense.

Therefore, Zhang Lingfeng decided to cultivate the upper, middle, and lower parts of the Seventh-Level Soul Master Cultivation Method to perfection.

After becoming a true god and the most powerful being in the upper world, Zhang Lingfeng had already mastered the upper, middle, and lower cultivation methods.

The cultivation method has three parts: upper, middle, and lower. The exchange ratio for each part is one million "lying flat value" to one, and each part requires one hundred million "lying flat value".

Each value can be exchanged for 100 points of Soul Essence Power.

The 2.6 million "lying flat" value is enough to upgrade the upper, middle, and lower three levels of the seventh-level Soul Essence Cultivation Method to perfection.

The panel has undergone significant changes.

Lying flat value: 400

The First Part of the Seventh-Level Soul Essence Cultivation Method: (100/100)

The middle part of the seventh-level Soul Essence Cultivation Method: (100/100)

The Seventh Level Soul Essence Cultivation Method, Part 2: (100/100)

Soul element: 40778
Realm: Level 8 Soul Master, True God

In an instant, Zhang Lingfeng felt an unprecedented sense of detachment, as if he did not belong to this space-time. He was pushed out of the world above the moment he became an eighth-level Soul Yuan Master.

Zhang Lingfeng saw that only his spiritual will remained in the world above.

He quickly entered the time-space tunnel.

They clearly sensed the location of the god-level continent.

It was like a brand new entrance, irresistibly drawing him in, and Zhang Lingfeng simply couldn't resist.

He never expected this to happen.

Fortunately, although they cannot return to the world above for the time being, they can change their position at the entrance of the space-time tunnel and enter the god-level continent according to the route Yan Fei reminded them of.

Zhang Lingfeng didn't know how much time had passed.

Suddenly, I felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over me.

Zhang Lingfeng found himself underwater. He swam towards the surface, and after several hours, he finally surfaced. He saw countless giant ships and sailboats on the water, and realized that he was in the ocean.

This is a dock.

Countless figures were moving about on the coast.

There are many people moving goods, or transporting various items.

Some people even led monsters to drag vehicles and deliver goods to cargo ships.

Children were also playing on the beach.

Some even used chains to hook the terrifying monsters in the ocean, and thousands of people pulled together the chains to drag the monsters ashore.

Zhang Lingfeng's eyes widened.

Those who do hard labor on the shore.

The lowest level of cultivation is Immortal Lord.

There were even Immortal Emperor level experts.

Their true essence is evolving towards divine power, and their bodies may transform into divine bodies at some point.

"Hey bro, aren't you afraid the Dark Tyrannosaurus will swallow you whole? You still dare to stay in the sea? Even if you had a high-level divine body, let alone your most basic divine body, you wouldn't be enough for it to swallow you whole."

An old man who was throwing ropes from the boat shouted at Zhang Lingfeng.

The rope flew over Zhang Lingfeng's head.

Zhang Lingfeng sensed the fluctuations of divine power.

The old man possessed a divine body, but his divine power wasn't much stronger than his own.

"Let's go into the water and see if there's anything good."

Zhang Lingfeng laughed.

They wanted to leap ashore but found their divine power was insufficient.

To avoid being exposed, he leaped onto the cargo ship.

When people are in the air, they can't help but release level eight soul energy fluctuations, and the divine power of many people becomes very obvious.

Suddenly, a burly man on the cargo ship shone with superhuman strength, like a spotlight, which surprised Zhang Lingfeng.

When the person landed in the air, they almost lost their footing.

"Brother, you're a Soul Master?"

The boat owner said with some surprise.

"Ah."

Zhang Lingfeng nodded.

"It's a pity that your soul power hasn't been baptized by divine runes yet, so you can't use divine rune symbols. Otherwise, if you came with us on the sea, we could have forged a few divine artifacts for you on the ship."

The ship owner was that being whose divine power shone like a spotlight.

They discovered that Zhang Lingfeng had fluctuations in his soul energy.

Unfortunately, it has not been baptized by divine runes, so it cannot come into contact with divine rune symbols, let alone use divine rune symbols to forge divine artifacts.

There are quite a few Soul Masters like this on the God-level Continent.

The ship owner was also a very knowledgeable person.

Since the divine power of the God-level Continent became problematic, many Soul Masters have been unable to become Blacksmiths, and even those with Soul Power reaching Level Nine have been unable to receive the Baptism of Divine Runes.

Receiving divine rune baptism requires an extremely high price, and problems may occur during the baptism. Some people's soul power disappears without a trace, while others are destroyed on the spot by the divine rune symbols.

Therefore, blacksmiths became extremely valuable.

Every family and conglomerate is vying for it.

In the ship owner's view, Zhang Lingfeng was either unqualified to receive the divine rune baptism or dared not receive it.

Zhang Lingfeng knew that too much talk would lead to mistakes.

He's new here and needs time to figure things out.

He glanced at the cargo ship, which was piled high with goods. It was clear that the ship owner had just returned from a trip and was unloading at the dock, and would probably be resting in this city.

Plus, the other person seemed to find it pleasing to the eye.

They did not drive themselves off the ship.

Zhang Lingfeng then cupped his hands and smiled, "To be honest, brother, I have been wandering around without a fixed abode. I wonder if you could take me with you to explore the world?"

"Don't dare."

The boat owner hurriedly waved his hand.

"If you like these jobs, and don't mind, you can stay and do some work. How about three bowls of sacred rice every day?"

Old Ou said.

Everyone was somewhat surprised.

Even those with a divine power value of 30 can only obtain three bowls of divine rice per day. With divine rice, they can gain divine power and improve their divine body level.

Although Zhang Lingfeng possesses some divine power and has already entered the realm of True Gods, he is considered relatively weak among True Gods. Old Ou's offer of this price is likely due to Zhang Lingfeng being a Soul Yuan Master and potentially becoming a Blacksmith in the future.

After all, if Zhang Lingfeng becomes a blacksmith in the future, the rewards he will give will far exceed what we can imagine now, and will definitely not be comparable to three bowls of divine rice every day.

Zhang Lingfeng frowned.

As someone destined to lie down and do nothing, who would bother to find work to do?

Only by truly embracing a relaxed lifestyle can you earn more "relaxation points".

He was about to refuse.

But what Lao Ou said next piqued Zhang Lingfeng's interest.

“I plan to rest for three to five years and will not be going out to sea to hunt demons recently. If you come with me, in addition to doing some work every day, you can also listen to my father talk about the essentials of cultivating divine power and divine body in the city. That is worth no less than three bowls of divine rice every day.”

"And my father also knew some blacksmiths."

Old Ou added.

He could clearly sense that Zhang Lingfeng hadn't been cultivating for very long.

However, his soul essence reached level eight.

He is very likely to become a blacksmith in the future.

I want to forge a good connection.

"Okay, it's a deal."

Zhang Lingfeng laughed.

Unexpectedly, I found a great place to earn "lying down points" as soon as I arrived on the God-level continent.

It was definitely worth the trip.

"boom!"

Suddenly, a loud bang was heard.

A fleet of flying cargo ships emerged from the depths of the ocean, flew overhead, and headed towards Baidi City.

Everyone felt an intense sense of suffocation.

Zhang Lingfeng was genuinely curious.

As a true god, possessing divine power and being an eighth-level Soul Master, it was extremely difficult for him to leap onto the shore; he was unable to fly.

What kind of person could fly a cargo ship through the air?

And there was a large group of them.

And it can fly over the dock and directly into Baidi City.

"This cargo ship?"

Zhang Lingfeng was surprised.

He discovered the problem: the cargo ship itself had the ability to fly, and it had many runes and markings that he couldn't understand, which seemed to be the so-called divine runes.

Could it be a cargo ship that can fly, forged by a blacksmith?

"Ok?"

Suddenly, a gaze fell upon Zhang Lingfeng from above.

Zhang Lingfeng felt as if his body was on fire, and he was in great pain. He wanted to look up at the other person, but he couldn't lift his head. It was as if his head was being pressed down by a large hand.

"Brother, don't be rude."

Old Ou was shocked.

The owner of the ship was a lower-ranking god in the city.

His identity is terrifying.

There are many powerful guardians with divine strength exceeding 500.

Many people's divine bodies could be smashed to pieces with a single punch.

Zhang Lingfeng stared at the cargo ship, which the other party perceived as a provocative look. Perhaps because he was a Soul Master and was only curious about forging techniques, the other party did not go all out.

Otherwise, a single wisp of divine power could have burned Zhang Lingfeng to ashes, causing him to vanish on the spot.

Old Ou wondered if he shouldn't have kept Zhang Lingfeng around; the guy seemed like a hothead. (End of Chapter)
