Douluo: Traveling Through the Universe, Reversing Time and Space

Chapter 457 The Tide of Life and Destruction: From Mortal to Divine Body

Shi Yu carefully searched each island, and found more than a dozen crystals on each island, including destruction energy crystals and life energy crystals.

Devil's Island is not a specific island, but an archipelago consisting of hundreds of islands of varying sizes.

If Shi Yu didn't possess god-level mental strength and precognitive abilities, it would have taken several days to collect all the crystals on an island.

With the support of various abilities, it only takes a dozen minutes to collect all the crystals from an entire island.

Three days later, Shi Yu appeared on the largest island of Devil Island.

He explored all the surrounding islands, collecting and finding all the crystals on them.

He now has more than four thousand crystals, although most of them are only the size of a bean, but the quantity is large.

More than four thousand crystals the size of beans piled together would have a volume the size of a watermelon.

Moreover, some of them are large crystals, the largest of which can even reach the size of an egg.

“I’ve searched all these islands. If Devil Island really has the core essence of the God of Life and the God of Destruction, then it’s most likely here.”

Shi Yu spread his mental energy outwards, as using mental energy on this island was much more difficult than on other islands.

The ability to foresee is also applied in constantly predicting good or bad fortune.

The result was that the benefits outweighed the misfortunes; clearly, there were things on the island that were beneficial to him, although it was not yet clear what those benefits were.

In the center of the island, Shi Yu looked at the ground below with a somewhat solemn expression.

"Devil Island has a tide of life, and it may also have a tide of destruction. What is causing all of this is most likely the core energy of the God of Life and the God of Destruction."

"It's hard to say whether digging down will trigger a tide of life, a tide of destruction, or both."

After some thought and preparation, Shi Yu began to delve deeper into the matter.

Using spatial manipulation, the soil automatically floated into the air at an extremely high speed, creating a crater a hundred meters deep in less than a minute.

boom--

Shi Yu sensed something and stopped digging deeper. Just as he stopped, an extremely powerful energy suddenly erupted.

Below the crater, life energy and destructive energy were almost intertwined and mixed together, surging upwards with a ferocity even greater than an erupting volcano.

"Good fortune and misfortune are intertwined."

Shi Yu was prepared, and without hesitation, he appeared at the cave entrance, willingly bearing the erupting tide of life and destruction.

The Eight Spider Lances Soul Bone, the Evil God Hook Soul Bone, and the Dark Gold Terror Claw Soul Bone were released simultaneously.

The nine-colored dragon scales covered his body, bringing his physical condition to its best.

He did not use spatial power for defense; it was not to fight against the tide of life and destruction, but to absorb it.

In the original story, Xu Lizhi was able to gain the power of destruction by destroying the tides, so he can do the same.

He was confident about this; the difference lay in what benefits he could gain from the power of destruction. Simply possessing the power of destruction was not enough.

Life energy and destructive energy collided, and Shi Yu mobilized the power of space to concentrate all these forces, intending to withstand them all and not wanting any energy to dissipate or be wasted.

As the energy surged forth, Shi Yu's body trembled, and he frowned slightly. He immediately used this energy to temper his physique and enhance his soul bones.

The destructive force continuously ravaged his body, while the life force, combined with his own regenerative abilities, repaired it.

His flesh and blood, his very soul, were constantly undergoing a process of destruction and repair. It was like a continuous forging and tempering process, a process of refining gold through countless trials.

As time passed, the pain on Shi Yu's face deepened, and the pain throughout his body made his mind buzz.

Fortunately, he had already experienced the pain of fusing with the Dragon God's Heart, which was the most painful thing he had ever experienced.

At this moment, the pain of flesh and blood tearing apart and bones breaking was unbearable, but still within a tolerable range.

During the absorption process, Shi Yu used the power of time to create a small temporal domain, allowing himself more time to absorb the energy.

The eruption of life energy and destructive energy reached a climax, and the pain that Shi Yu endured also reached its extreme.

His flesh was torn apart, and his body looked as if it had been pieced together.

The eight spider spear soul bones, the evil god hook soul bone, and the dark gold dread claw soul bone behind him were all cracked.

It looked like it would fall to the ground with the slightest touch, but it never completely shattered and fell apart.

Not only were the external soul bones damaged, but the bones inside the body were also severely cracked, including the absorbed left leg bone, right leg bone, and left arm bone.

Even the strongest head soul bone has developed cracks, constantly being tempered by destructive and life energies.

Many life and destruction energies continued to flow into his heart and merge with it.

As time passed, the intensity of life energy and destructive energy plummeted, and this tide of life and destruction was about to pass.

With the destruction and life energy completely subsided, Shi Yu was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

"It's really not easy to improve your strength. Every time I do it, I end up almost dead."

Shi Yu thought weakly, looking down at her body. Her flesh was severely torn and she looked extremely miserable.

Fortunately, his healing ability underwent another qualitative change, and even such a severe injury could heal quickly, recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After catching his breath, he checked his own condition and threw a punch, causing the space in front of him to shatter and collapse.

He did not use any spatial power; he did it purely with his physical strength.

This time, through the combined tempering of destructive energy and life energy, his physique has been elevated to the level of a divine body.

Although he was only the weakest priest, and possibly the weakest among all priests.

However, it has ultimately reached the realm of gods, which is incomparable to the previous Soul Master's body.

Moreover, his physical body carries the attribute of destruction, and a casual punch can combine the power of destruction to unleash extraordinary power.

With his immense physical strength and exaggerated regenerative abilities, his body, if it continues to grow, would feel like a humanoid artifact.

Not to mention his core abilities of time and space; when these two powers are truly enhanced, he will be truly strong.

With a thought, he appeared at the bottom of the deep pit, where half of the two crystals were exposed.

Life Energy Crystal and Destruction Energy Crystal, except that these two crystals were much larger than the ones he had found before.

Shi Yu waved his hand, and two crystals floated out of the soil at the same time. Their size made him laugh involuntarily.

Both crystals were the size of watermelons and looked extremely pure; he could even vaguely see two seeds within them.
