Human Clan Defender

Chapter 1083 - 139-140: Key of Destiny (Two-in-One)

The strength created from piling up resources has a foundation that is too flimsy.

Even if the realm is achieved, how much true strength can be enhanced remains a question.

But now things are different.

Shen Changqing being able to slay the God King Lei Ling indicates that he possesses Divine King Level combat power.

Divine King Level combat power.

There’s no doubt he can ascend the Divine Mandate Platform as a proud heaven.

Moreover.

He should not have yet reached the Divine Realm Limit, which indicates that there is still room for growth.

The moment he achieves Divine Realm Perfection, his strength will become even more terrifying.

"A tiger father begets no dog sons, Zhongshan Baiyue is a proud heaven, his son is also a proud heaven. It seems their line of inheritance is quite good, and if their bloodline can be continued, it is indeed beneficial."

Zhongshan Dongxuan considered other aspects.

The inheritance of a strong bloodline.

Talent can be inherited.

Just like Zhongshan Baiyue, who can be regarded as a proud heaven, his son is also a proud heaven.

If Zhongshan Chou can pass down his bloodline, there’s potential for another proud heaven to emerge in the future.

Of course.

These are probabilistic issues, not absolute.

But regardless.

The bloodline left by a proud heaven will never be inferior.

Now there are only two problems left.

One is whether Zhongshan Chou is willing to leave a bloodline, and the other is which young female genius in the Zhongshan Clan is suitable to match him.

The Candle Emperor, hearing this, was slightly taken aback, then nodded in agreement.

"Dongxuan Divine King’s idea is quite good. From the two generations, this line of inheritance is indeed excellent. If they can leave descendants, it can only be beneficial for the clan."

Regarding a suitable spouse, it is a bit troublesome."

He furrowed his brows slightly.

There are many women in the Zhongshan Clan, but finding someone with matching talent is difficult.

After all, if the other half lacks talent, the offspring born may not fully inherit the proud heaven’s talent.

Moreover.

Without sufficient talent, considering Zhongshan Chou’s identity as a proud heaven, he might not even notice.

For a moment.

The two Divine Kings fell into contemplation.

——

In Thunder Prison Valley.

After slaying God King Lei Ling, Shen Changqing immediately found a suitable place and prepared to refine the Thunder Essence.

The previous battle.

On the surface, he seemed unharmed.

But in reality, his flesh was severely damaged.

After all, the final full-force attack from God King Lei Ling, even with the physique of the Seventh Layer of Cave Heaven, and having opened the Middle Cycle of the torso, the defense power couldn’t be strong enough to completely disregard a Divine King’s attack.

So with that full-force attack, Shen Changqing was seriously injured.

He simply endured the injuries, so they weren’t revealed.

Now.

Finding a suitable place, Shen Changqing did not conceal anything further.

The healing flesh.

Begins to forcibly rupture again.

The thunder power spiraling within continually destroyed the blood and flesh, preventing the flesh from self-healing.

"Before refining the Thunder Essence, I must first recover from my injuries!"

Feeling the lingering power of God King Lei Ling within his flesh, Shen Changqing sighed.

If you do not contend with a Divine King.

You can never understand their power.

The battle seemed to be him pressing down on God King Lei Ling entirely, but it was not wholly so.

Before he made his move, God King Lei Ling was not at full strength, and the subsequent battle was extremely perilous.

His victory.

Was entirely reliant on his formidable fleshly physique.

Otherwise.

The defeat would have been declared at the very start.

Realizing this, Shen Changqing became even more convinced of the Martial Dao.

He knew well.

His ability to wield Divine King Level power was not because of his Divine Realm Eightfold Perfection, not because of possessing Divine Lord Level Innate Divine Ability, nor because of mastering Divine Ability Laws.

All of those are because of his unparalleled fleshly physique.

In the face of absolute power.

Any measures are reduced to nothing.

"If I were to discard Divine Path Power and awaken all my hidden powers, subduing God King Lei Ling would be even simpler!"

Shen Changqing thought silently to himself.

Unfortunately, he could not currently employ those hidden powers.

Once he uses them, Zhongshan Chou’s identity would lose its role entirely. Even with strength comparable to a Divine King, survival would be difficult at that point.

After all——

The gap between Divine Kings is significant.

Shen Changqing had the confidence to contend with the usual Heaven and Earth Divine Kings, but not with the top-tier ones.

Moreover.

Above Heaven and Earth Divine Kings, there are Sun and Moon Divine Kings, above whom are Universe Divine Kings and Rule Divine Kings.

Also.

The one who once calculated his movements may not merely be at the Divine King Realm.

How exactly, remains debatable.

Currently, dangers are everywhere.

Relying solely on his current strength, there isn’t enough assurance for his safety.

Following that.

Shen Changqing didn’t dwell too much on these thoughts, beginning to absorb the stray nature’s spiritual energy around him to heal his bodily injuries.

Though the Thunder Prison Valley had the might of a Divine Lord, the Spiritual Energy was indeed dense.

A vast amount of Spiritual Energy was absorbed.

The residual Divine King Power on his flesh was gradually being dispersed.

Soon.

Two months had already passed.

When the last trace of thunder dispersed, the remaining power of God King Lei Ling was completely driven away.

Buzz——

Without the obstruction of Divine King Power, the flesh immediately began to self-repair.
