Almost two months passed by in the blink of an eye.
Within the two months, Lin Huang used six Virtual God rank-9 Godheads as the main material and a sea of Godheads of other grades as supplementary materials to elevate from imperial-level rank-3 to imperial-level rank-9.
In the beginning, it took him 20 days to elevate from imperial-level rank-3 to imperial-level rank-4. However, as his combat strength continued to elevate, his speed of refining the Godheads became faster and faster.
It took him 14 days to elevate from imperial-level rank-4 to imperial-level rank-5. It only took him nine days to elevate from imperial-level rank-5 to imperial-level rank-6 and six days to elevate from imperial-level rank-6 to imperial-level rank-7.
It only took him 56 days to elevate from imperial-level rank-3 to imperial-level rank-9.
Perhaps to other people, such a rapid elevation might cause their foundation to be unstable. However, Lin Huang's imperial-level was different from ordinary people's. Each time he refined a Virtual God rank-9 Godhead, it was equivalent to building his foundation again. It was like consolidating his Life Palace, which made his foundation more stable.
Coupled with the fact that his physical and spiritual strength were on Virtual God level, he could handle the burden that came with such an elevation. The rapid elevation in the past two months did not bring him any negative effects.
Naturally, Lin Huang was very careful. He would check his body repeatedly to see if there was anything wrong with his body every time he elevated his combat strength. He would only begin the next round of Godhead refinement after confirming that there was nothing wrong with him.
Lin Huang finally stopped refining the Godheads after elevating to imperial-level rank-9 in one go.
He did not get out of closed-door cultivation right away. Instead, he checked his body carefully again.
"My physical strength is close to peak-stage Virtual God rank-9. My strength and speed have reached Virtual God rank-9 too …" Lin Huang finally had his eyes on his Life Palace after a thorough check.
Faint dark red divine patterns could be seen faintly on the Life Palace that was initially black.
"Life Palace: Monster Paradise
"Life Palace Territory Range: With the Life Palace owner as the center, it has a radius of 10000 kilometers (Potential to grow)
"Life Palace Ability 1: Within the Life Palace Territory Range, the summoning beast's soul will return to the Life Palace when it dies. Its body will be reconstructed by Life Power and it will be resurrected. When its soul is broken, the soul pieces will return to repair itself.
"Ability Restriction 1: Within 24 hours, each summoned creature can only be resurrected 30 times. If he did it more than 30 times, his soul would disintegrate and he would not be able to return to his Fate Palace. (Can grow)]
"Ability Limit 2: Within 24 hours, each summoned creature can only perform a maximum of 9 soul repairs. If he did it more than nine times, his soul would disintegrate and he would not be able to return to his Fate Palace. (Can grow)]
[Derivative Ability: Within the range of the Life Palace, if the owner of the Life Palace dies, he can choose a summoned creature to die in his place. The summoned creature that was chosen to die as a substitute could not be summoned within 24 hours. (Can grow)]
Remark: Within 24 hours, the owner of a Life Palace can only be replaced nine times. If his soul perished, he could at most die three times. (Can grow)]
…
"Life Palace Ability 2: Within the effective range of the Life Palace's territory, the Life Palace possessor and his summoned creatures will have their strength, speed, and spiritual power amplification up to nine times. The strength, speed, and spirit of other types of summons were weakened by 30%. (Can grow)]
Remark: The amplification and weakening effects can be turned off by the owner of the Life Palace.
…
As the Life Palace elevated from grade-3 to grade-9, the ability of Lin Huang's Life Palace was greatly enhanced.
Not only did the range of the Life Palace's territory expand, but the number of times the summoned creatures could be resurrected, the number of substitutes, and the amplification of the summoned creatures' abilities had a significant increase.
"The Life Palace has become much more powerful, but it doesn't seem like it has reached its limit …" Lin Huang could faintly sense that there was still room for improvement in his Life Palace.
Whether he was elevating to virtual god-level or to true god-level in the future, he had yet to reach the tipping point of elevation.
"Don't tell me I can elevate to grade-10 imperial-level?" Lin Huang mumbled to himself softly.
"You can try to see if you can elevate." The stone tablet's deep voice was heard again. "Since you feel that the strength of your Life Palace hasn't reached its limit, there's naturally a possibility of elevating."
"But my Life Palace no longer absorbs excess Godhead energy. I've just elevated to grade-9 imperial-level, so there's still a small amount of Godhead energy left in my body. I've tried to control the Life Palace to absorb it, but it doesn't respond at all. It's like it's full, "Lin Huang voiced his doubts.
The stone tablet fell into silence for a moment and soon gave a suggestion. "Since you feel that it hasn't reached its limit, it's unlikely that it's saturated. I think you can try refining the Godheads from Virtual God rank-1 to Virtual God rank-9 one by one. If it doesn't work, there are only two possibilities. One is that your Life Palace can be elevated further, but it'll require special conditions to do so. The other possibility is that there's an error in your senses. However, the possibility of the second possibility is very low. After all, you're not a newbie on the path of cultivation. "
Lin Huang nodded and took out a Godhead from Virtual God rank-1 to Virtual God rank-9 from his storage space. He tossed them into his body and activated his Divine Fire to refine them.
Soon, two days had passed. After refining the Godheads one after another, Lin Huang activated his Life Palace to absorb them again and again. However, the Life Palace did not respond at all.
"I've tried the Godheads from Virtual God rank-1 to Virtual God rank-9, but none of them are absorbed …" Lin Huang looked helpless.
"Then, there's a high chance that there's a special condition for elevation. You'll have to figure it out on your own as to what it is exactly. "The stone tablet was out of ideas.
"Forget it, I'll leave it alone for now." Lin Huang decided to put the issue aside for the time being and began discussing the subsequent elevation with the stone tablet.
"I should have two options for elevating to the next level after my Life Palace has been fully elevated. One is to consolidate the Godhead and become a Virtual God. The other is to melt the Divine Fire to become a True God. Which one do you think is better? "
"If you want to elevate your ability within a short period of time, naturally, it'll be faster to become a True God directly. However, if you're considering long-term development, I personally suggest elevating to Virtual God first, "the stone tablet answered after thinking for a moment.
"With the stability of your Life Palace, it's true that you can use it as a Godhead and melt the Divine Fire directly. However, have you thought about it? Although you'll save a lot of time by elevating to true god-level directly, you'll waste years of accumulation. You'll be no different from other True Gods when you elevate to true god-level.
"However, if you go through virtual god-level and elevate to true god-level, you'll be the top powerhouse among the True Gods. Moreover, in the long run, your chances of elevating to Heavenly God or even lord-level will be much higher.
"There's another reason. I don't recommend elevating to true god-level directly. The gravel world that you were in before was incomplete, and the world will rejected true god-level entry. After elevating to true god-level, it'll be much more difficult for you to return to the gravel world. Even if you manage to return to the gravel world successfully, you'll be restricted by the world's rules unless you seal your combat strength below true god-level. "
Lin Huang fell into a long silence after hearing what the stone tablet said.
It was not that he had never considered these issues before. However, the gravel world's crisis was getting closer and closer, and he only had less than nine months left. It was inevitable that he was a little anxious. He was eager to elevate his ability as soon as possible, so he neglected many details.
The stone tablet's words finally made him think it through.
"I know what to do now …"
