Douluo: What the hell is the academic master development system?

Chapter 455 The Thief Never Leaves Empty-Handed Talent Activated
Soon, Electrolux, after sensing the surrounding clouds and mist, spoke up: "The rich spiritual energy within the Haotian Sect is confined to the mountaintop, somewhat similar to how the Golden Ancient Tree can gather the most concentrated spiritual energy within itself."

"The only thing the Golden Ancient Tree can do is avoid actively releasing too much energy. As for the Haotian Sect..."

Electrolux's voice echoed in Chen Ping's mind, but with a hint of mockery: "I'm a little curious, do the rules of the divine realm really allow gods to secretly pour the divine realm's vital energy into the mortal world?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Ping immediately shook his head: "How is this possible? Even the Divine Trial Grounds of Douluo Continent ten thousand years ago did not have such rich spiritual energy. This means that doing this is clearly against the rules."

"Otherwise, given the nature of the first Sea God and the Asura God from ten thousand years ago, who liked to skirt the rules, they wouldn't have given up this opportunity to give their subordinates some benefits."

Upon hearing this, Electrolux chuckled: "That makes sense. It seems that the divine energy of the God Realm was most likely brought to Douluo Continent by Tang San when Tang Wutong descended to the mortal realm. Moreover, it seems that this guy's control over the mortal realm is unusually weak."

Chen Ping was also surprised that Electrolux could analyze Tang San's weak control over the lower realm so quickly.

"What, are you confused?"

Electrolux said, "I can feel a layer of power shrouding the entire Haotian Sect, so I just used my divine sense to isolate a small portion of the heaven and earth energy mixed with divine energy."

"Logically speaking, if a treasure like the divine realm's primordial energy were to mysteriously diminish, it should trigger some of the runes on Haotian Fortress."

"But for now, the only effect of these runes hidden on the Haotian Sect is to keep the divine energy above the Haotian Sect and prevent it from leaking out. They have no other function."

"That's why I said that Tang San's control over Douluo Continent might be unusually weak."

"He only knew that even if the divine energy was diluted, it would still be of great benefit to the human world, but he didn't know how to make full use of every bit of the divine energy he brought down. He could only forcibly use some kind of equipment to limit the divine energy to a certain range."

"But it's clear that this is all he can do. He doesn't know how to narrow down the scope, nor does he know how to make the divine energy flow only within Haotian Fortress. As a result, most of the divine energy here probably ends up benefiting the flying soul beasts here."

As he spoke, Electrolux transmitted the results of his divine perception to Chen Ping's spiritual sea, and the scene there almost made Chen Ping scream.

There are so many! Within this sea of ​​clouds, which cannot be detected by spiritual power, there are at least several thousand flying soul beasts, among which there are probably hundreds with cultivation levels of over ten thousand years.

This wasn't what shocked Chen Ping the most. What truly surprised him was the presence of ten-thousand-year-old flying soul beasts in the sea of ​​clouds. Among the bird soul beasts known as killers in the clouds, there seemed to be even one hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast, and more than one at that.

These flying soul beasts hovered silently in the sea of ​​clouds, using this cultivation speed amplification device, which was somewhat similar to the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, to rapidly nurture themselves, gradually absorbing the thin divine energy in the air into their bellies.

Now Chen Ping truly believed Electrolux's claim that Tang San had very weak control over the lower realms.

If he knew that there were thousands of soul beasts hidden in the sea of ​​clouds of the Haotian Sect, which relied on consuming the primordial energy of the divine realm to accelerate their cultivation, given his personality, he would probably have already eaten roasted birds.

The reason Tang San could enjoy a tenfold increase in cultivation speed from the rare and precious materials of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well was simply because he treated those divine treasures like his own offspring, harvesting them regularly as a form of sustenance, thus allowing them to grow unchecked. However, for Tang San, who had likely inherited the divinely bestowed skill of crafting spirit rings, these bird-like spirit beasts in the sea of ​​clouds were simply there to share the spoils.

In other words, the clouds and mist mixed with divine energy were able to block the detection of spiritual power, and Da Ming and Er Ming had suppressed their own strength, which is why they were completely unaware of the huge scale of the bird-like soul beasts eating among the clouds and mist outside Haotian Fortress, and thought there were only a few or a dozen of them.

"Elder Yi, after saying all that, do you mean...?"

A wicked grin spread across Chen Ping's face as his passive talent, "Thief Never Misses," flashed on the screen.

"Yes, that's what I mean. Anyway, the divine energy here will just be eaten by these soul beasts. Why don't we, master and disciple, pack some up? I can study the composition of the divine energy above your world."

"The more we understand about the divine realm, the more confident we will be when we actually set foot there in the future."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ping nodded vigorously, but then he also seemed somewhat troubled.

"But Elder Yi, just because Da Ming and Er Ming's spiritual power can't sense the fluctuations in the sea of ​​clouds doesn't mean they can't sense the spatial fluctuations of the opening of the undead demiplane, right?"

"If I were to recklessly introduce the divine energy into the undead demiplane, these two brothers might just tear through space and attack me in the next second."

Chen Ping's words were naturally reasonable and well-founded, but that didn't stop him from being lectured by Elder Yi again.

"You silly boy, of course I know that we can't open the undead demiplane. Otherwise, I would open the undead demiplane for you and secretly pour the divine energy into it, wouldn't that have been enough?"

"You brat, don't you ever think about what things you, with your body and soul, can do that I, an old man, cannot?"

Electrolux's criticism instantly enlightened Chen Ping, who chuckled awkwardly and then took out a wooden tray.

This thing is none other than the Fengshen Platform, a level-nine soul tool used to imprison Xue Di. Chen Ping couldn't bear to smash it directly, but instead spent a long time solving the three-dimensional Huarong Road puzzle before he was able to successfully break through its mechanism.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the Conferred God Platform in Chen Ping's hand is a genuine level nine soul tool. In fact, it's the same as the Red Dust Blessing that Jing Hongchen gave to Chen Ping. Soul masters of all levels can use it, only the effects they produce are different.

Chen Ping simply poured his soul power into the Conferred God Platform, and with a gentle breath, he saw the surrounding天地元气 (heaven and earth energy) continuously flowing into his Conferred God Platform.

Perhaps even Professor Mo Fang, the creator of this Conferred God Platform, did not expect that the platform he created to capture ice spirits would not only fail to capture many ice spirits, but would first capture a 700,000-year-old Snow Emperor inside. After finally releasing the Snow Emperor, it turned into a Qiankun bag that secretly absorbed the primordial energy of the divine realm.

However, it must be said that only after absorbing a large amount of divine energy can the Conferred God Platform be called a genuine Conferred God Platform!
