The divine rune essence that Long Yu needed was either Shadow Essence or Absolute Beginning Essence.
If it was only Life Essence, then it wouldn't be of much use to him.
The energy that erupted from that special spiritas sixth phase Great Ruler was the power of Shadow Essence. If this spiritas was a seventh phase Great Ruler, then perhaps it would pose a slight threat to Long Yu. But now, in front of Long Yu, it didn't have the slightest ability to resist at all.
The Darkflame Ghost Chain instantly erupted. Black flames blazed around it as it rapidly extended through the void. It was like a long snake, wriggling and swallowing. All the spiritas powerhouses in its path were incinerated, not even leaving a trace of their soul.
It was just that under Long Yu's deliberate control, the sixth phase spiritas Great Ruler with the power of Shadow Essence was spared.
Of course, this was only temporary.
After Long Yu killed off the other spiritas, he used the Boundless Grasp to kill the sixth phase spiritas Great Ruler. Then, he took the sixth phase spiritas Great Ruler's small world and left the divine rune source.
Within the divine rune source, there were still many spiritas juniors cultivating and comprehending. They had no idea that the spiritas elders protecting them had all been killed.
Moreover, Long Yu didn't let a single spiritas escape. In a short period of time, he had completely annihilated this large group of spiritas. This could be said to be extremely efficient.
After killing off this large group of spiritas, Long Yu left this place, not leaving behind a single trace of his aura. Even if a Demigod powerhouse ran over afterwards, they wouldn't be able to find any information about Long Yu.
Long Yu had the Dragon Blood Sacred Diagram, a Combat Weapon, which was a very useful tool for cleaning up traces. Although its grade was slightly low, the Dragon Blood Sacred Wind Diagram was still very convenient to use. It could completely remove any traces of existence, and then make it impossible for the opponent to deduce any information about him.
It was no wonder that even the Jiuyou Dragon Emperor kept this Battle Weapon. After all, it was very useful in many situations.
After Long Yu left the Source of Divine Runes, he continued to fly. In two days, he crossed a distance of a trillion miles and arrived in a quiet and uninhabited void. In this void, there was no one within a trillion miles. Even if Long Yu wanted to use the void to pass through this uninhabited region, he would need two days to do so.
Now that he was here, he could peacefully search the small world of the sixth-phase Soul Race ruler.
However, searching for the essence of the divine characters in the opponent's pocket world was much faster. After all, all he needed to do was find the seven Innate Magic Fruits in the opponent's pocket world. Long Yu quickly entered the opponent's pocket world. He immediately felt a strange shadow-type divine character surging toward him and surrounding him.
However, these darkness-attributed divine characters were ownerless right now, so they posed no threat to Long Yu. He directly passed through these darkness-attributed divine characters and quickly found the first Connate Mystique Fruit.
… …
Three days later, Long Yu appeared near another Source of Divine Runes.
Perhaps because of his last mission, he discovered that this Source of Divine Runes was much more heavily guarded than before. Moreover, there were many hidden sentries. If Long Yu tried to attack like last time, he would definitely be discovered by the opponent and his whereabouts would be exposed.
"This arrangement is a bit intricate!"
Long Yu's thoughts stirred.
This Source of Divine Runes was far too difficult to attack. If Long Yu wanted to forcefully seize this Source of Divine Runes, it was likely that his whereabouts would be exposed.
Of course, this was referring to Long Yu of the past.
He had found a shadow essence from the sixth-phase Soul Race ruler's body. Then, he had fused this shadow essence into the Nine Nether Hunter's Innate Magic Fruit, causing the Nine Nether Hunter's Innate Magic Fruit to have a special effect.
That was, as long as the Nine Nether Hunter killed an opponent, it could transform the opponent's residual strength into another Nine Nether Hunter.
For Long Yu's current situation, this was a completely divine skill!
If the Nine Nether Hunter dealt with everything, then Long Yu wouldn't even need to show himself to kill all the spiritas present. Even if the Nine Nether Hunter failed, Long Yu wouldn't be in danger of being exposed. In the spiritas' territory, with this method, it could be said that he was unstoppable.
Long Yu transformed into nothingness and hid in the void. Then, after investigating the situation, he condensed ten Nine Nether Hunters at once.
These ten Nine Nether Hunters wielded twin sabers. They were like the shadows of a death god as they rapidly rushed towards the nearby spiritas. Moreover, they used their Heart Saber to shatter the opponent's mind and soul. In nearly an instant, the ten spiritas were completely killed off!
Long Yu hadn't used the Nine Nether Hunter's Innate Magic Fruit recently because it wasn't very useful. It was better to condense the Demon Dust Avatar.
However, after merging with the Shadow Essence, the Nine Nether Hunter's Innate Magic Fruit was extremely suitable for combat under certain circumstances.
For example, right now, it wasn't suitable for Long Yu to appear. So, using the Nine Nether Hunter could completely solve the situation he was currently facing.
In just a breath's time, the ten Nine Nether Hunters had turned into twenty Nine Nether Hunters. Then, these twenty Nine Nether Hunters pounced towards the other spiritas' Sovereign Mystic Realm experts at lightning speed.
Right now, Long Yu's cultivation was already at the seventh phase Sovereign Realm. He was already a peak existence below the Demigod Realm. Originally, the Nine Nether Hunters that he summoned could easily kill most existences below the Demigod Realm.
Now that the Shadow Essence had been merged with the Nine Nether Hunters, not only did they have the ability to invade and divide, but the power of the twin sabers in their hands was even more tyrannical.
Basically, as long as one wasn't at the peak of the seventh phase Sovereign Realm, there was no way for them to survive the Nine Nether Hunter's Heart Saber. The only exception was if the spiritas' Sovereigns were powerful enough to dodge the first attack. However, they wouldn't be able to dodge the second attack …
Long Yu himself didn't even need to do anything. In just four or five breaths' time, the entire battlefield was filled with Nine Nether Hunters. There were at least fifty of them. This meant that forty spiritas' Sovereigns had been killed by the Nine Nether Hunters and turned into Nine Nether Hunters instead.
The Shadow Essence's power continued to condense into Nine Nether Hunters. Fifty, sixty, seventy …
Although Nine Nether Hunters were constantly being killed by the spiritas' experts, the number of Nine Nether Hunters on the battlefield was still increasing. Even the stronger spiritas were being attacked by three or four Nine Nether Hunters. They were easily killed and turned into a new Nine Nether Hunter.
The entire sky was filled with the figures of the Nine Nether Hunters.
This shocked the Soul Race cultivators. They had never seen a "foreign race" like the Nine Nether Hunter. Immediately, some of the Soul Race cultivators wanted to escape and report this news to the higher-ups of the Soul Race.
Long Yu didn't stop them. In any case, the Nine Nether Hunters weren't his real body. Even if they were destroyed, it wouldn't be a problem. It was just that one of his innate abilities would be studied by the other party. It was impossible for them to capture the Nine Nether Hunters alive.
This was because the Nine Nether Hunters didn't have any life. Even if they fell into the enemy's hands, they would immediately self-destruct. It was impossible to truly study the characteristics of the Nine Nether Hunters.
When Long Yu first condensed the Nine Nether Hunters, he used the Dragon Blood Sacred Wind Diagram to erase the connection between him and the Nine Nether Hunters. Even if the other party tried to deduce something based on the Nine Nether Hunters, they wouldn't be able to deduce anything about Long Yu.
Long Yu even wanted to use this ability to massacre the cultivation planets of the spiritas and deal a heavy blow to them.
However, this idea wasn't realistic. After all, each Nine Nether Hunter wouldn't exist for more than two hours. Moreover, the strength of the opponents killed by the Nine Nether Hunters had nothing to do with Long Yu. Instead, it was related to the strength of the person killed.
If the Nine Nether Hunter killed a fifth phase Great Sovereign of the spiritas, then the new Nine Nether Hunter that was born would have the combat power of a fifth phase Great Sovereign. If it killed an emperor path secret realm spiritas, then the new Nine Nether Hunter that was born would only have the combat power of an emperor path secret realm.
Long Yu wanted to massacre some of the spiritas' cultivation planets. Unfortunately, even he couldn't rely on the Nine Nether Hunter's splitting characteristic to slaughter all the spiritas on an entire cultivation planet within two hours.
Unless the Nine Nether Hunter that Long Yu condensed could exist for a longer period of time. In that case, it was still possible to massacre the entire cultivation planet.
"If the Nine Nether Hunter becomes a divinized ability, will it have such power?"
Long Yu thought to himself. Unfortunately, he didn't know how to turn a Xiantian mystic ability into a Deified mystic ability. Other than the Eroding Moon Ancient Region, he hadn't found any other way to achieve this.
Although he couldn't massacre the cultivation planets for now, there were only a thousand spiritas in front of Long Yu. Just the Nine Nether Hunter alone was enough to deal with them.
On the battlefield, the Nine Nether Hunter danced like a group of demons. The two blades pierced through the void, killing the spiritas. Then, a new Nine Nether Hunter would appear from the spiritual and soul remains of the spiritas.
Such a hellish scene scared the remaining half of the Soul Race powerhouses out of their wits.
The Nine Nether Hunter wasn't invincible.
But their numbers kept increasing, and there was no end to them. As long as the spiritas died, they would immediately become hunters of the netherworld. Such a situation caused the spiritas present to be on the verge of collapse!
During this process, Long Yu didn't sense any special innate ability of the spiritas. In other words, during this operation, Long Yu didn't obtain any information about the essence of divine runes. He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
"Looks like I have to look for my next target …"
Long Yu's eyes flashed with radiance as a new plan formed in his mind.
