Heaven's Expanse Palace.

The two brothers Shangguan Tianyang and Shangguan Tianyue were seated face to face, their expressions bleak and sombre.

"Big Bro, it has been more than twenty days, why haven't they come out yet?" Shangguan Tianyue was clearly less able to maintain his composure.

Shangguan Tianyang shook his head and gave a bitter smile as he said: "How could I possibly know what is going on inside… neither of us are able to enter the Lustre Spatial Realm… we have no choice but to continue waiting for them."

Shangguan Tianyue said worriedly: "Should we gather another team to go in to have a look?"

Shangguan Tianyang replied: "No, that isn't necessary. If even they are unable to accomplish anything, who else under the age of thirty can possibly succeed in their place? They are already at the top of the young generation… and if something happens to them, sending in anyone else is just sending them to their deaths. Tianyue, you must hold your composure, otherwise things will get messy. As you have seen as well, the current Lustre Spatial Realm has finally calmed down, and is no longer breaking down… this is still a piece of good news for us. Furthermore, Zhou Weiqing and the others all have the Lustre Gem… with their cultivation level, even if they meet the dragons, as long as they use the gem at once, they should not be in too much trouble."

Shangguan Tianyue sighed, saying: "How could I not feel urgent? I only have those three daughters, and they have all been snatched away by that rascal Zhou Weiqing. I really don't know what's so good about that brat, that Xue'er, Fei'er and Bing'er would actually all want to follow him. Sigh… I truly do not know if we have made the right choice in asking them to enter the Lustre Spatial Realm."

Shangguan Tianyang said helplessly: "It is too late to say all that now… at least, his connection and relationship with the Dragons is good, and he has the best… perhaps our only, chance to help us resolve this critical danger. Relax, the heavens will bless those who do good, that brat Zhou Weiqing does not look to be the type who would come to a premature end. Haven't you seen those companions of his remaining on the Island, none of them are worried at all… they even left a few days ago first."

Shangguan Tianyue nodded, saying: "We can only continue waiting. Big Bro, I'll go look for Xian'er first… Previously, I hid the fact that all three of our daughters would be entering the Lustre Spatial Realm, and these two days she has been so mad at me."

Shangguan Tianyang couldn't help but chuckle, saying: "You… ahh… you… being a playboy for half your life, but at least in the end you could not escape Xian'er's clutches. Hurry up then. Tell Sister in law that they will be fine, the peace and calm of the Lustre Spatial Realm speaks volumes no matter what."

Although his words were as such, how could Shangguan Tianyang really be that confident? If they were all fine, why didn't they come out?

…

ZhongTian Empire. Main Road.

Five massive Ghost Demon Horses were galloping down the road

In the end, Yun Li had gained the approval of all three God Tier Consolidating Equipment Masters, and during their stay in the Heavenly Jewel Island, they had given him directions and guidance for ten whole days. If not for the fact that Zhou Weiqing had left them a letter of instructions before entering the Lustre Spatial Realm, it was likely they would not have left the Heavenly Jewel Island so early.

Zhou Weiqing's letter was simple – if he did not exit the Lustre Spatial Realm in fifteen days, he asked them to return to the Heavenly Bow Empire and listen to Ming Yu's arrangements.

After all, the Heavenly Bow Empire was still in the most important stage of development, and they were already originally lacking powerhouses. How could foresee when the Kalise Empire or Bai Da Empire would launch an attack against them? As such, these young powerhouses could not leave for too long.

Furthermore, Zhou Weiqing had played a little trick here, handing most of the money over the Yun Li to bring back. He had not paid back the hundred million gold that he had promised Shangguan Tianyang that time, and now that Yun Li had brought it all away, even if he wanted to pay back when he returned from the Lustre Spatial Realm, he would not be able to do so.

It was not that Zhou Weiqing did not want to pay a bridal price, but there were priorities of varying importance. The current Heavenly Bow Empire did not have much revenue or any avenues of earnings, and it was just too critical to get this sum of money. As such, after much thought, he decided to send the money back first to support the development of the Heavenly Bow Empire. As for the problem of their marriages, it was not something that could be completed or solved quickly. In the first place, without saving his parents, how could he have the mood to think about marriage! In the future, once the Heavenly Bow Empire was revived and built up, his parents safe, he could then start thinking about a fresh new bridal gift.

When Zhou Weiqing wrote that letter, he did not know the full extent of the troubles that the Heavenly Jewel Island was facing, otherwise he would not even feel troubled about the money. If he could save the Heavenly Jewel Island and solve their problems what was that mere hundred million gold!

…

Crescent City. Governor's Mansion Meeting Hall.

Ming Yu sat on the main seat, with all the various ranking officers of the Heavenly Bow Empire seated there. With Zhou Weiqing away, the entire Heavenly Bow Empire's military was now under his control, while the internal affairs was under the control of the original Vice Commander of the Peerless Battalion, Wei Feng.

For Ming Yu to be able so sit so stably at the head and commander position, it was not just because of Zhou Weiqing's strong support, but also his own proven capabilities.

In the beginning when he had first assumed the position, some of the Peerless Regiment officers were not fully convinced by him, feeling unwilling to submit so easily. However, as time passed, Ming Yu's arrangements and decisions, all that he had done, had brought him the respect and admiration in deserving that position.

The Fei Li God General was truly the Fei Li God General. In just barely half a year, the entire Heavenly Bow Empire army had now changed dramatically.

Originally, the Heavenly Bow Empire's true fighting prowess only came from the Peerless Regiment. However, at this point, the entire Heavenly Bow Empire now had a sixty thousand strong army, all of whom had the capabilities of fighting.

In the past, while he was still in the Fei Li Empire, despite his reputation, due to the fact that so many of the upper echelons of the government disliked him, he had been constantly held back, and his military talent had not been able to flourish to the maximum of his capabilities. However, now Zhou Weiqing had given him a real stage to perform on. Here, he was given the utmost support, and even if Zhou Weiqing was here, he would still have the full support behind all his decisions. As the saying goes, if you want to use someone, trust in them fully, otherwise don't use them at all. In this area, Zhou Weiqing knew that his while he had some minor talent in the area, his own military capabilities were far from being sufficient. Still, his knowledge of men, personality and human nature was quintessential.

Under Ming Yu's leadership, the current Heavenly Bow Empire had incorporated more than a dozen large forces of the original Heavenly Bow Empire army that had been scattered messily about the countryside, hiding as they attempted to do their own small rebellions in their own way. At the same time, he had also undergone major recruitment, thus forming the current situation.

When their army strength had reached a total of sixty thousand, Ming Yu had finally stopped their expansion. He knew this was already pressing the limit that the current Heavenly Bow Empire could sustain, and if he continued expanding the army, their finances would crumble under the weight of sustaining this military force.

In the next few months from their recruitment and gathering, these soldiers would experience what could be called training from hell, but a well thought system of supremely attractive prices as well as punishment was designed to give them optimum participation without any complaints.

In this, Ming Yu's system of punishment and reward followed the spirit of Zhou Weiqing's original directions against the Peerless Regiment, improved further before using it for the entire army. After all, Zhou Weiqing's original rewards were just too extravagant; if it were just the Peerless Regiment, it was still fine, but if the entire army used such a reward system, the Heavenly Bow Empire would crumble economically before long.

As for the Peerless Regiment, they had been broken apart by Ming Yu. The sixty thousand strong army was now six Regiments, and in each of them there was now a Peerless Battalion, with eight hundred Peerless Archers, as well as a five hundred strong Peerless Heavy Cavalry Battalion. This spread their forces uniformly amongst all six of the new Regiments.

The Peerless Regiment Heavy Cavalry originally numbered two thousand official warriors and two thousand reserve warriors. With this rearrangement, three thousand of them were separated out into the six Regiments.

Besides that, Ming Yu also formed a new personal guard Battalion. This Battalion would be under his direct command, consisting of his original Personal Guard which was a thousand strong, a thousand Peerless Regiment Heavy Cavalry soldiers, as well as the five hundred Snow Deer Cavalry soldiers. Although it was called a Regiment, they were two thousand five hundred strong.

As such, the entire Heavenly Bow Empire army formation was fully set up, stationed in the various parts of the north of the empire, covering the current territory of the Heavenly Bow Empire.

At the same time, Ming Yu had also recruited city guards for each city, three thousand per city. With some simple training, they were basically used as city guards maintaining order and basic patrols and defense. This would also be an avenue for uncovering talent. With the help of Wei Feng, the current Heavenly Bow Empire was perfectly rounded up in both governing and military, prepared to enter war at any time.

"Commander, the latest batch of supplies from the Fei Li Empire have arrived, and the armaments and supplies from the ZhongTian Empire have also reached." Wei Feng spoke, standing at the left of the main seat. On the other side was naturally Hua Feng.

Ming Yu smiled faintly and said: "The ZhongTian and Fei Li Empires are really going all out in their support for us."

Wei Feng laughed lightly as he said: "The envoy from the Fei Li Empire even asked us when are we thinking of launching an attack towards the Kalise Empire again."

Ming Yu said passively: "Tell them it is still the same answer. As soon as possible."

As soon as he said that, all the officers couldn't help but laugh out loud. This was not the first time the Fei Li Empire had asked the Heavenly Bow Empire about counterattacking the Kalise Empire, but Ming Yu had always replied them with the same simple answer.

Ever since the Heavenly Bow Empire had stabilized itself and fortified its foothold, the Fei Li Empire had actually increased the sending of supplies to them by a substantial amount. To the Fei Li Empire, the south had always been a major threat that could cause them to lose sleep. The Kalise Empire did not amount to anything, but the Bai Da Empire was extremely troublesome. Furthermore, from the current situation of the mainland, the Bai Da Empire and Dan Dun Empire in the South of the Mainland was clearly preparing to ally together in major movements. Perhaps they might not dare to easily contest the massive ZhongTian Empire yet, but since they had already made an attack on the Geritimo Empire, how could they not dare to attack the Fei Li Empire as well? With the WanShou Empire in the north, if the south also erupted in war, this would be a empire destroying calamity for the Fei Li Empire.

Wei Feng said with some worry: "Commander, if we keep replying like this, will the Fei Li Empire break off their support to us?"

Ming Yu shook his head and said confidently: "As long as they are not fools, they will not do that. Even if we do not actually attack the Kalise Empire, we are still a natural barrier in the south for the Fei Li Empire. At least for the current situation, the stronger we are, the better it is for the Fei Li Empire. As such, they will definitely continue supporting us and helping us grow. If I am the leader of the Fei Li Empire, I would actually not want the Heavenly Bow Empire to attack… after all, defense is always far easier than offense. They would still have to worry that we might get swallowed up by the Bai Da Empire if we attacked too hastily. As such, by holding back and waiting as we constantly build up our forces and train, the Fei Li Empire will definitely not feel dissatisfied. However, from the way that the ZhongTian Empire has also increased their material support for us, we can see that the situation in the south is really not good."

Turning to Kou Rui, Ming Yu asked: "How is the situation in the Kalise Empire?"

By now, Kou Rui had followed Ming Yu for quite some time, and he had grown into a far more mature, capable and experienced scout now, no longer with the youthful naivety of a student. In terms of scouting and information gathering, he definitely had the talent, and had gained Ming Yu's approval.

"Reporting, Commander. The Kalise Empire has established a defensive line in the north with a total of twelve Regiments of army strength, of which five come from the Bai Da Empire. I have already noted the position on the sand table map."

As he said that, he pointed to the huge sand table in the middle of the meeting hall. "From the looks of things, the Kalise Empire does not have any intention of attacking us. In a similar fashion to us, their formations are all in defensive positions and arrangements. According to our scouts, the Kalise Empire do not have any plans to attack. In fact, the Bai Da Empire has stationed another six Regiments in the south region of the Kalise Empire, ready to reinforce the defensive lines at short notice."

Ming Yu nodded before his gaze turned to Yan Zhexi. "Zhexi, when you return, I want you to begin recruitment of troops again. I will give you three months… I need you to recruit another forty thousand troops and begin their training."

"Ahh?" Yan Zhexi was greatly surprised by the command. "Commander, if we do so… our supplies…"

Ming Yu smiled passively, revealing a look of wisdom with everything in his grasp. "Do not worry, just do as I say. I'm afraid that in the very near future, there will be massive changes coming to the south. Our previous deductions were not wrong at all, the Bai Da Empire has definitely come to an agreement with the Dan Dun Empire, and they are united in purpose at least."

Pausing as he looked around at the confused and curious looks around him, Ming Yu continued: "The reason why I am so sure of that is by looking and analysing the situation from a military point of view. Simply put… if I am in charge of the Bai Da Empire, and I find a nail has pierced into my body… this Heavenly Bow Empire… what would I do? I should definitely pull it out as quickly as possible, otherwise the damage the nail does will keep growing. However… the Bai Da Empire did not do such a thing, to gather a massive army to wipe us out as quickly as possible. What does that mean? That can only mean they have something more important to do…"

"Looking at the current situation as well as the map of the mainland… in the south, the Bai Da Empire is closely situated to the Dan Dun Empire. If there was anything important for them, it can only be two possibilities. One – they are about to start a war with the Dan Dun Empire. Second – They are allying with the Dan Dun Empire to accomplish something big. Clearly, the latter is what is happening now."

"The Dan Dun Empire is one of the stronger empires in its own right, especially with one of the Great Saint Lands, the Blood Red Hell. Added on to the Bai Da Empire, they pretty much already have the power to try and contest the ZhongTian Empire. With such a major power gathered in the south, I cannot believe that they will sit around doing nothing. It looks like the Geritimo Empire is in big trouble. This time, the Dan Dun Empire will not be giving them another chance to recover."

"With all those possibilities in mind, our existence and continued presence could possibly become the future defensive line that the Bai Da Empire and Dan Dun Empire chooses to breakthrough after… In such a circumstance, do you think that the ZhongTian Empire and Fei Li Empire would possibly reduce sending us as much resources as possible? Zhexi, this time, when you begin your recruitment, do not limit it to our Heavenly Bow Empire borders. Go to the various border cities of the Fei Li Empire and ZhongTian Empire, don't let either of them go. You can raise the pay and treatment promised slightly, but try to draw in more of their citizens to join in our army. Our Heavenly Bow Empire is just too small, and our population cannot sustain too much more recruitment. Since they are using us as shields, we do not need to be too polite in this matter."

Hearing the step by step analysis by Ming Yu, all the officials slowly revealed convinced looks. At the other side, Hua Feng smiled faintly and said: "I begin to understand why that rascal Weiqing was willing to leave full power in your hands. This is truly a wise and accurate decision. He is no match for you in this matter."

Ming Yu smiled and stood up, his eyes shining brilliantly. "Heroes arise when times are troubled. All of us present here, myself included, we all wish to become the heroes for the Heavenly Bow Empire, even heroes for the entire Mainland. The Bai Da Empire and Dan Dun Empire are indeed powerful in combination, but this is also a chance for us. I love war, especially the sense of control I can feel in the midst of war. Let us use victory after victory to bring up our Heavenly Bow Empire together."

As he spoke up to that point, Ming Yu's voice paused for a moment as he looked into the distance in the direction of the ZhongTian Empire. After a while, he turned back to Hua Feng and said: "Teacher, you are wrong, it is not that Zhou Weiqing is no match for me… in truth, he is already standing in a position far above mine."

Ming Yu's face revealed a hint of mixed emotions, respect, disappointment and unwillingness, but it was quickly replaced with a faint smile. "Although I am not willing to admit it, that fellow is able to take a far and broad view from a much higher position than I have at an earlier time."

Looking at the curious expressions on the officials faces around him, Ming Yu laughed and said: "Do you think I am exaggerating things or trying to flatter him? No, I have always been a person who speaks the truth bluntly, no matter for myself or others. This was also why I was not able to have a good time in the Fei Li Empire… in terms of military matters, I have never been a person who was willing to be under others. However, I have to admit that Zhou Weiqing has earned my respect. Even for myself, all of what I said earlier was an analysis that I had come up with recently. Yet, have you all thought about who it was who brought all of you into the Heavenly Bow Empire in such a perfect timing. If he did not grasp the situation of the entire mainland, how could you all possibly succeed in grabbing a piece of pie from the Bai Da Empire's mouth so easily and build up your own power again?"

The entire meeting hall turned silent, as a look of helpless respect flashed across Ming Yu's face.

Only one person was the exception, looking nonchalant. Mu En's tiny frame was not obvious in the entire meeting hall at all, but he was thinking to himself secretly: What bullshit vision and vantage point… that little brat has just some insane luck!

…

Brilliant, eye-catching silver light soared into the skies, the boundless Saint Energy that seemed to encompass everything turning into circles and circles of light, spreading out everywhere. In the center of the light, two people slowly opened their eyes. Zhou Weiqing held onto Tian'er as they jumped up as one. Laughing heartily, he looked to his arms. On his wrists, the Icy Jade Physical Jewels and Alexandrite Cat's Eye Elemental Jewels swirled around beautifully, displaying the now seven Jewels each now.

Currently, he was not in the Dragon-Tiger Transformation state, but his skin was glowing with a layer of faint gold light. Within his eyes, a dim silver light could be vaguely seen.

One month. From the time they had arrived in the Lustre Spatial Realm up until now, it had been an entire month. Zhou Weiqing, Tian'er and the other girls had been cultivating non stop in closed door cultivation for this entire month.

After Zhou Weiqing's Heavenly Energy had broken through to the twenty seventh stage, he did not stop as it continued rising. At last, in the previous moment, Zhou Weiqing had finally broken through to the twenty eighth stage, which was also the first successful Death Acupuncture Point in the head area for him. At the same time, his cultivation stage had finally reached the seventh Jewel.

It was not just Zhou Weiqing. Tian'er, as well as the three Shangguan Sisters who were just opening their eyes behind them… all of them had raised at least one level of Heavenly Energy.

Shangguan Xue'er had even stepped into the realm of the eighth Jewel.

The true strength and use of the Saint Energy was slowly presenting itself. At this moment, the Saint Energy within both Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er's body had reached six hundred drops respectively. Constantly bathed and nourished by this large amount of Saint Energy, their bodies were also undergoing constant evolving.

At that moment, a sudden feeling in their soul roused their attention. The mother dragon who had been in a deep sleep all this while slowly opened her eyes. "You all have finally awoken." Although she had just awoken from deep sleep, her eyes revealed an obvious restless impatience. Clearly, her sleep had not been a good one.

Although the mother dragon had been resting all this while, she had kept a threat of awareness focused on Zhou Weiqing and the others, awaiting the end of their cultivation so they could begin reviving her husband. If not for the fact that the Saint Energy reverberations that Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er were giving forth continually nourished her husband's body, allowing it to maintain its life, perhaps she would not have been able to resist waking them earlier.

She could definitely understand the principle that grinding a chopper will not hold up the cutting process 1, and was thus able to hold herself back until now.

"Senior, may I know how to address you properly?" Zhou Weiqing asked. At this current moment, he felt as if his entire body was filled with immense power, the sense of power and freedom upon breaking through gave him a bit more confidence towards reviving the dragon. Breaking through from the sixth-Jeweled stage to the seven-Jeweled stage could be said to be one of the major barriers for most Heavenly Jewel Masters, from the Zun Stage to the Zong Stage, tantamount to breaking past the 'second-rate' Heavenly Jewel Master into the ranks of the 'first-rate' ones. At the Zong Stage, their senses towards the atmospheric Heavenly Energy would increase drastically, and the strength of their physique as well as the ability to use atmospheric energy in their own Skills was all strengthened in an overall major power boost.

Previously, though Zhou Weiqing had been able to use the Demonic Change State, and later on the Dragon-Tiger Transformation, to increase his own power, that was still after all not an actual Zong Stage body. Now, he had full confidence that he could face any enemy below the Heavenly King Stage, even if they were top elites from any Great Saint Lands.

The mother dragon nodded towards Zhou Weiqing and said: "My name is Duo Si, my husband's name is Hui Yao."

Zhou Weiqing continued: "Duo Si, let us begin then. We will need you to act together with us."

Duo Si nodded, her eyes filled with fervent glow as she looked towards her husband. Slowly, her giant dragon body got up, eyes filled with love. If she could revive her husband, even if it was at the expense of her life, she would be absolutely willing.

Zhou Weiqing continued: "There will be two steps to the revival process. First of all, what we need to do is to draw out that destructive energy from your husband's body before we can actually revive him. However, the sheer power of that energy is far beyond what we can contain or withstand, as such, during this process of drawing it out, we will need to trouble you to control that power, and prevent the outflow of it from being too great. I will be using the Devour Skill to slowly draw it out with your aid, only then can we ensure safety."

Duo Si's eyes were filled with worry. "That energy… it is extremely terrifying. Even just a little bit of it isn't that easy to withstand. Are you certain you can handle it?"

Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er both exchanged looks before saying: "We have confidence. No matter what, we have to give it a try." Although Zhou Weiqing knew that Duo Si could have sensed a little about their Saint Energy, he did not wish to spell it out. The Saint Energy was of utmost importance, and he would prefer to keep it a secret as much as possible.

Looking at Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er��s resolute eyes, Duo Si felt her own confidence increase slightly. The massive wings behind her back unfurled, and in a single stride, she reached her husband's body, slowly wrapping her wings around them to embrace the still warm corpse of her husband.

Chapter 672: Seven Jewels. Low Level Zong Stage! (3)

At this point, she had no other choice, and she could only trust these humans in front of her. This was her last chance.

"Let us begin then, thank you all." The last words were extremely earnest, her eyes filled with gratitude. In the next instant, a thick red light sprang forth from her body, slowly infusing into the male dragon, Hui Yao's body.

When Duo Si released her Heavenly Energy, Zhou Weiqing and the others couldn't help but feel shocked inside. The sheer terrifying presence of the Heavenly God Stage Heavenly Energy, even if it wasn't directed against them, they could still feel the massive pressure.

With the infusion of Duo Si's Heavenly Energy, Hui Yao's body lit up with a faint red glow. In this instant, if they did not know he had long since passed away, none of them would have imagined this was actually a corpse. The aura that was emitting from Hui Yao's body was just that terrifying.

Zhou Weiqing nodded towards Tian'er, holding her hand as they moved towards Hui Yao. Duo Si had already covered the majority of Hui Yao's upper body with her wings, and Zhou Weiqing deliberated for a moment before he made his choice, placing his target on one of Hui Yao's claws.

Taking a deep breath, Zhou Weiqing was in currently in tip top condition as he steeled himself. His right hand holding onto Tian'er's hand, the large Saint Energy whirlpool forming between them, the dimming silver light springing forth once more around the two of them, especially around their joined hands, where the faint light of the whirlpool could be seen. In that instant, a faint aura rose about the two of them, and even Duo Si's terrifying Heavenly God Tier energy reverberations were no longer able to affect their aura.

Zhou Weiqing's left hand slowly rose up, a thick grey colour swirling around it, covering his entire palm. The aura filled with the Demonic energies caused his entire palm to turn a greyish crystalline state, and in the center of his palm, there was another small grey whirlpool.

A light flashed in Zhou Weiqing's eyes, and at last he placed his left hand onto the massive claw in front of him. The next moment, the wings behind his back unfurled instantly as he entered the Tiger-Dragon Transform, plunging into the Ice Cold Perception immediately to sense the changes in the dragon's body.

Within a moment, Zhou Weiqing could sense the destructive power that Tian'er had spoken about.

Originally, Zhou Weiqing was still suspecting if this destructive energy was similar to that of the Blood Red Hell disciples he had experienced previously. However, when he actually came into contact with this power, he knew he was wrong. At least, from his current senses, the terrifying power within the dragon's body was not on the same level as that of the Blood Red Hell disciples and their Destruction Attribute.

If one were to liken the Destruction Attribute of the Blood Red Hell disciples as full of destructive capabilities and excluding all other attributes… then the current energy in the dragon's body was truly the power that could destroy worlds, heaven and earth alike.

The purest black energy. There was no way to determine whether it was in a gaseous or liquid form, but just the slightest sense of the terrifying energy reverberations caused Zhou Weiqing to feel as if his entire body was plunged into ice cold water. Due to the fact he was in the midst of the Ice Cold Perception, his senses were so sensitive that in that moment, he felt as if his entire spirit was about to be doused by the terrifying destructive aura.

His own body shuddering violently, Zhou Weiqing felt his hand was almost 'bounced��� away. In that instant, the large Saint Energy whirlpool activated, a thick Saint Energy suddenly infusing into every corner of his body, including his inner spiritual world.

A vast, boundless Saint Energy aura, filled with life and the power of creation, forcefully removed the terrifying destruction aura from his spiritual inner world.

In that moment, Zhou Weiqing could clearly sense that within the confines of Hui Yao's body, a pure red energy of fire suddenly enveloped the pitch black destruction energy. Clearly, Duo Si had taken action.

Without any other thoughts about having a lucky fluke, Zhou Weiqing instantly circulated the Saint Energy all around his body before infusing a large amount into his Devour Skill. Instantly, the grey and silver lights began to intertwine around his left hand, glowing brightly as the Devour Skill was unleashed. A strong suction force began to transfer into the massive dragon body of Hui Yao, drawing upon the destruction energy to begin flowing out slowly.

The Devour Skill truly lived up to its name as the most powerful Demonic Attribute Skill. Even Duo Si was unable to force out the destructive energies, but with the Devour Skill, the destructive energies began to shudder.

A trace of pitch black energy began to charge towards Zhou Weiqing's Devour Skill, along the dragon's massive blood vessels, as if sensing danger and retaliating. This thread of destructive energy might be small, but its offensive power was brutal and unreasonably powerful, as if it held life of its own.

Naturally, Zhou Weiqing dared not be careless and underestimate it. Gritting his teeth with full preparation, he began to draw the thread of destructive energy into his own body.

*BANG*

Just as the pitch black energy entered his body, Zhou Weiqing felt as if his entire body was about to explode. Just that tiny amount, a single thread, its power was already far beyond all of the Destruction Attribute power that the entire Dan Dun Battle Team had unleashed on them.

This was especially so in terms of the state and stage it was at, far beyond that of the Dan Dun Battle Team, especially since there was a shade of the Will of Destruction held within, almost causing Zhou Weiqing to break down instantly.

Standing behind Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er, the three Shangguan Sisters could clearly see that in that instant, Zhou Weiqing's clothes billowed out to almost bursting point, his twenty eight energy whirlpools of his Death Acupuncture Points expanding to their limits, and they could even clearly see the swirls of air current that these Death Acupuncture Point whirlpools were spinning and drawing in. In that moment, a layer of fine, black lined tattoos began to appear all around Zhou Weiqing's originally silver-white body. His appearance was horrific, as if about to break down at any moment.

Zhou Weiqing grit his teeth as he endured through it all, the Saint Energy within his body pouring out without any restraint. He knew that the start was always the most difficult, and if his Devour Skill could not take care of this first thread of destructive energy, he would not be able to survive. No matter what, he had to take the risk and use all he had to overcome this first barrier.

Luckily, with Duo Si's help, the vast majority of the destructive energy was imprisoned in Hui Yao's body, otherwise, if Zhou Weiqing continued Devouring, perhaps just another small thread entering his body simultaneously would be enough to cause him to disintegrate.

Still, Saint Energy was after all Saint Energy, and by now, both Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er could clearly sense that the large Saint Energy whirlpool was beginning to spin at an unprecedented speed. As for the Devour whirlpool that was around Zhou Weiqing's left hand, it was also spinning like a small scale Saint Energy whirlpool at breakneck speed, constantly eating away, and transforming the tiny thread of powerful destructive energies.

In such a short period of time, Zhou Weiqing was not only expending his own Saint Energy, even a large amount of Tian'er's Saint Energy had been expended. However, to their shock, under such a circumstance, their large Saint Energy whirlpool did not seem to shrink at all. This could only mean that the energy Devoured and transformed into Saint Energy was able to completely make up for their vast expenditure!

This was just a mere thread of destructive energy! For it to be able to turn into so much Saint Energy… could it be… this destructive energy was actually at a higher level than the Saint Energy?

How was that possible? The Saint Energy was already the final product of the four Saint Attributes, what other energy could possibly be above it?

Towards this problem, Zhou Weiqing quickly learned the answer. It was not that the destructive energies were at a stage above the Saint Energy, but rather the tiny bit of Will of Destruction within the destructive energy was perfectly married together, and more importantly compressing it to an unbelievable extent. As such, even a seemingly tiny thread of it was actually a horrifyingly huge amount. Although Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er's Saint Energy was extremely powerful, they amount they had was after all extremely tiny, and they also had not truly grasped the full usage and underlying profound meanings behind the Saint Energy, only passively using some of its functions. With all of these reasons in mind, it was no wonder the Saint Energy seemed to be inferior to the destructive energies.

Even so, Zhou Weiqing could sense that these destructive energies were perhaps at the same level as the Saint Energy. Even if it was slightly inferior, it was just a tiny half step behind. Compared to any single Saint Attribute, it was considered far superior already.

The black tattoos around Zhou Weiqing's body were slowly vanishing once more, and the silver-white light was brightening again. The facts had once again proven themselves… the combination of the large Saint Energy whirlpool and the Devour Skill was able to counter the destructive energies. If the current Zhou Weiqing or Tian'er had a Saint Nucleus Core, perhaps it would be extremely easy for them to Devour and Transform all of the destructive energies.

Their success not only allowed them both to breathe a sigh of relief… on the other side, the mother dragon Duo Si began to look at them with a greater hope. It was the terrifying destructive energies which had almost taken away both of their lives, and if these youths could truly take care of these energies, then it was clear that the chance to revive her husband was much greater.

With the first taste of success, Zhou Weiqing was able to continue Devouring with much more confidence. With a signal from him, Duo Si once again released another thread of destructive energies to be Devoured by Zhou Weiqing and into his own body.

Perhaps because they already had experience, this time both Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er found it much easier to Devour and Transform the energies. Furthermore, they could now clearly sense that they were no longer ��breaking even' in terms of Saint Energy, but the overall amount of Saint Energy was actually steadily growing as they transformed the destructive energies.

The destructive energies were indeed terrifying and filled with offensive power, yet one had to admit its purity was equally astonishing. In terms of quality, purity and density, a single drop of this destructive energy was able to transform into ten drops of Saint Energy. This was the reason why Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er could not only maintain their Saint Energy but also have it begin grow as they took on just a tiny amount of destructive energies.

Thread after thread… Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er's Saint Energy continued growing stronger and stronger as time passed slowly.

Every cycle of suction, devouring, transformation… once that had been established into a rhythm, it all began to seem to simple. At least, now all of them could see hope in front of them.

As the Saint Energy within Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er's body grew steadily, it was also being used constantly. In this process of usage and growth, the Saint Energy was also circulating throughout their bodies, nourishing them, improving and evolving their physiques. Their overall amount of Saint Energy and Heavenly Energy was also growing at an astonishing pace.

Chapter 673

Perhaps, this was exactly what the saying meant — one good turn deserves another. Had they only went to devour some heavenly beasts to increase their Saint Energy, only God would know how long it would take them to absorb 3,000 drops of Saint Energy. After all, the number of heavenly beasts that were at least at the Heavenly King tier and above were very, very limited, even if it was in the Heavenly Snow Mountain. It was absolutely impossible for them to simply devour them and transform as they wished.

However, the amount of energy contained in the Destruction Energy was so incredibly vast. Both Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er could clearly feel the increasing speed of the huge Saint Energy Whirlpool that was at their joined hands.

The phrase 'as one fell, another rose up' was the perfect one to describe them. As the Saint Energy slowly increased in amount, the amount of Destruction Energy that they could devour each time gradually grew as well. Not only that, the speed at which they devoured the energy was accelerating as well.

Right now, Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er was so absorbed in the process that they had completely entered a state of oblivion. The Heavenly Energy in their bodies were being replaced by the pure Saint Energy. Along with the nourishment from this energy, their bodies were slowly being enhanced.

The three Shangguan sister obtained various benefits as they cultivated at the same time. They too were advancing at a tremendous pace.

In the Lustre Spatial Realm, time was no longer a problem. Nobody knew how long had passed by when suddenly, Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er was startled at the same time, hastily opening their eyes.

Such a sudden awakening appalled the both of them. Glancing at each other, they were pleasantly surprised to find that Heavenly Energy no longer existed in their body, they were all completely replaced by the Saint Energy in every corner of their bodies. Not only that, the energy seemed to continue pouring into them

.

Yet, the Destruction Energy in the body of Hui Yao the dragon was only halfway devoured by them. Both of them were taken completely surprised yet struck dumb with amazement by this realization.

After all, both of them now was possessed at least 3,000 drops of Saint Energy in their bodies. Yet, in such a circumstance, the Destruction Energy was still not completely devoured. One could easily imagine how horrifying this energy was.

However, a new problem had arisen in Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er. They realized almost simultaneously that each of their bodies could no longer contain the Saint Energy.

That was right, their bodies could no longer contain it. After the Saint Energy had exceeded 3,000 drops, all they could feel was their body beginning to swell. Thought the Saint Energy was being continuously built up in their body, they began to feel a pain because of the swelling. It was apparent that this was not a good sign at all. Not only that, the Saint Energy did not even begin to show the slightest signs of it solidifying into a Saint Pill though it had reached the threshold of 3,000 drops.

"W-What happened?" Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er glanced at each other, obviously confused by this matter. The Demonic Devour was still going on and the Saint Energy was still building up in their bodies. If this continued, both of their bodies would probably be blown up by the Saint Energy. No matter how strong and tough their bodies were, it would still be feeble in the face of Saint Energy.

"Bing'er, come here," Zhou Weiqing's clever mind started to work at this instance as he quickly gave an instruction.

The three Shangguan sisters who were cultivating behind them opened their eyes in shock. The faith that Shangguan Bing'er had in Zhou Weiqing was absolute and incomparable. Immediately, she stepped forward and stood in front of him with a surprised and concerned look, "Fatty, what's wrong?"

"Kiss me," Zhou Weiqing demanded without hesitation.

Looking at the anxiousness on his face, Shangguan Bing'er decided to put aside her shyness as she knew that this time, Zhou Weiqing must have his reasons for making that demand.

She offered her lips and the two pair of lips met halfway as they kissed. In an instant, Bing'er's petite body started to tremble sharply. At that moment, her body was rendered into a silverish, white color. The rich, flavorful Saint Energy flew into her body like a stream, slowly spreading across her entire body.

As the saying went — When a man builds up semen in his body, the body would automatically release it through a wet dream [1]. Since his own body could no longer hold it in any longer, Zhou Weiqing could not possibly let the Saint Energy go to waste, right?

He then thought of a method to offload this energy. After all, passing on the Saint Energy to the three Shangguan Sisters would definitely be a commendable act as well.

With the addition of Shangguan Bing'er now, along with the outflow of the Saint Energy, the pressure that was pressing on Zhou Weiqing and Bing'er's bodies immediately dissipated without warning. Due to the sufficient Saint Energy in their bodies, the transformation speed of the Destruction Energy was increased to the next level higher.

Afraid that Shangguan Bing'er's body would be affected by such a huge sudden transfusion of Saint Energy, the moment he had transfused 500 drops of Saint Energy into her, Zhou Weiqing stopped the kiss and summoned Shangguan Fei'er to step forward instead.

Shyly, Bing'er retreated to a side and Fei'er was bolder compared to her. She even put her arms around his neck as she kissed him, with it being her turn to accept the Saint Energy this time around.

When Zhou Weiqing had also transfused 500 drops of Saint Energy into her, he called out Xue'er's name this time. Even Duo Si the dragon looked at him in a peculiar manner as it wondered to wondering to itself, "Yes, this human is nice but why does he have so many women around him?"

Compared to her two sisters, Shangguan Xue'er was much more shy and self-conscious. But, when Zhou Weiqing called for her name urgently again, along with the encouragement from both Fei'er and Bing'er, she finally stepped forward and stood before him.

The moment the two pairs of eyes connected, Xue'er lowered her head by nature when she saw his gentle gaze. With a sharp breath, she closed her eyes and just like Fei'er earlier, she awkwardly put her arms around his neck and offered her trembling lips to his.

The rich, flavorful Saint Energy began to flow again. At this moment, Shangguan Xue'er appeared to be exceptionally beautiful as a reddish blush spread across her delicate face. Though she had kissed Zhou Weiqing before but at that time, it was when they were both alone. Now, she had to kiss him in front of Tian'er and her two sisters, only God knew how much courage that she had to summon to do just that.

Her cold lips instantaneously warmed up from the Saint Energy. Without warning, Xue'er's eyes widened in surprise as a certain shameless guy had taken this turn of event to his own advantage and inserted a tongue into her mouth during the Saint Energy's transfusion. He even started to suck on her savory, delicate tongue without reserve.

Ah bastard! Bastard! BASTARD! Fei'er and Bing'er are still watching us! Xue'er wanted to break it off but she was afraid she would disrupt the absorption and transformation process of the Destruction Energy that Zhou Weiqing was going through. At this time, her brain had already plunged into total darkness, completely losing the ability to think. However, a touch of happiness gradually filled her heart quietly.

After knowing him for such a long time, here and now, the realization that she was finally his woman dawned on her for the very first time, ever. Since she could not avoid this feeling, she might as well enjoy it, right?

Without a doubt, the mouth-to-mouth Saint's Energy transfusion method was clearly a delightful thing that Zhou Weiqing would never get tired of. After giving 500 drops to each of the three sisters, the whole process started again.

After receiving such a big amount of Saint Energy, the three Shangguan's sister now felt like brand-new people. The warm Saint Energy in their bodies did not contradict their Heavenly Energy at all. Also, having this energy made them feel like their bodies were constantly changing in a subtle manner that they could not even begin to explain.

Finally, when Zhou Weiqing finished his fourth transfusion, the Destruction Energy in Hui Yao the dragon was now completely depleted. The instance he and Tian'er transformed the last drop of Destruction Energy into Saint Energy, the gigantic body of the dragon suddenly quivered ever so faintly without warning.

This, of course, was not a sign of his resurrection. Still, there were at least some signs of vitality in his body that was the result of the natural metamorphoses of the dragon clan's powerful life.

The main reason why Tian'er believed that they could revive Hui Yao was because the dragon clan possessed a body that was the most powerful among all of the Heavenly beasts. Even after they were supposedly dead, their dragon soul would never dissipate but would gather in the form of a nucleus instead. The vitality and bloodline power in the body would not deteriorate even after a long period of time.

The silverish, white ray once again appeared on the five people standing there. After ending the devouring process, it could be said that the five of them have received an enormous gift from the entire process. Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er's body was completely filled up by Saint Energy and the three Shangguan sisters had at least 2,000 drops each.

Aside from being surprised and excited, Zhou Weiqing was secretly gasping with admiration. What a tremendous amount of Destruction Energy that was! It had never crossed his mind that it would be able to be transformed into a total of 12,000 drops of Saint Energy. No wonder Duo Si said that this Destruction Energy was at a higher level than their Heavenly God Energy.

If it wasn't for such a petrifying energy, how could Duo Si and her husband who was both on the Heavenly God-tier be hurt by those sneak attack?

"Finally our job is done," Zhou Weiqing let out a long sigh of relief. Duo Si gradually opened up her wings and unlike the energetic Zhou Weiqing and the girls, she looked exceptionally tired. The colors of her orbs had obviously dimmed down in that gigantic dragon's eyes.

When Zhou Weiqing were absorbing the Saint Energy, Duo Si was giving it all her might to control the Destruction Energy. Had it not been the speeding up of Zou Weiqing's Demonic Devour at the final moment, she was not even sure she would be able to survive the whole ordeal. However, in order to resurrect his husband as soon as possible, she was willing to use up all her energy. For that reason, even if it was tiring for her, she still kept going on while she grit her teeth.

Noticing Duo Si's exhaustion, Zhou Weiqing suggested, "Let's take a break. At least for now, our chances appear to be more hopeful now."

Duo Si nodded her head, the sadness that was in her eyes originally was now slightly lifted away. From the very beginning, her gaze had never left her husband. Slowly crawled to go near him, she silently watched the wounds on his body that were slowly healing.

That was right! Even when a dragon had already lost its life, after Zhou Weiqing and the girls had devoured the Destruction Energy in his body, his wounds had actually started to heal and it was at an unbelievably alarming speed as well. This was the horrifying recovery capability of the dragon clan. If the ground was not fully dyed with the red color of its blood, Zhou Weiqing would even suspect that the dragon would come alive any moment now.

"When can we begin to resurrect him?" Duo Si asked him and Tian'er.

"You're too tired at the moment. We need your help too for the resurrection process. Resurrecting a dragon would require an exceptionally massive amount of Heavenly Energy. When Tian'er's and my Heavenly Energy is no longer sufficient to proceed, we'll need to consume your Heavenly Energy through Demonic Devour to support her Resurrection Skill. For this reason, you need to get back to your best form as soon as possible. We'll start whenever you're ready," Zhou Weiqing replied.

Chapter 674

"Alright," Duo Si nodded its head at Zhou Weiqing and slowly closed her dragon eyes in deep gratitude.

The three Shangguan sisters, on the other hand, were standing at one side with their faces blushing while Tian'er was smiling sweetly at one another.

Looking at the four girls, Zhou Weiqing stuttered awkwardly, "W-What are you guys looking at me for? Go and cultivate! Y-You guys need to let the Saint Energy fully integrate into your bodies after receiving such a vast amount of it!"

Shangguan Fei'er burst out laughing, "Oh? Are you feeling embarrassed right now with that thick skin of yours? Hmmph! I didn't see that at all when you were kissing all of us just now!"

Zhou Weiqing quickly retorted, "T-That was merely for the sake of devouring the Destruction Energy, okay? I'm off to cultivate!" Right now, with him being on his own, it was clear that he would not be able to win against the four girls. Without a word, he sat down on the spot and began to cultivate.

Now that his body's Saint Energy was already full, the Saint Nucleus Core still did not emerge as he had imagined. To Zhou Weiqing, this was a huge problem. Right now, the revolving of his Death Acupuncture Points were all being driven by the Saint Energy. Yet, he did not dare to absorb anymore Atmospheric Energy from the outside, otherwise, he would start to swell up again as he did previously. In other words, if he did not solve this problem as soon as possible, he would be unable to continue with his cultivation.

Similar to him, Tian'er was facing the same issue as well. For this reason, she proceeded to sit cross-legged on the ground and started her cultivation.

Be that as it may, there was no sign of impatience or panic in Zhou Weiqing at all with the condition of his body. After all, he could always use up the Saint Energy and make space in his body. Still, of course, this would be his last resort. Now that he had finally absorbed 3,000 drops of Saint Energy after going through such a trouble, he did not have the heart to waste them just like that.

With his Death Acupuncture Points revolving, though he did not dare to take in anymore Atmospheric Energy from the outside, he could still activate his Immortal Deity Technique.

Inside his Dantian, the originally small Saint Energy Whirlpool had now grown multiple times bigger and was now almost as large as the huge Saint Energy Whirlpool that he formed with Tian'er just now.

Zhou Weiqing tried to mobilize this Saint Energy and found no problem with it but the problem of him not being able to cultivate any further due to his body being fully filled had yet to be resolved.

He tried all kinds of methods again and again but still, he could not find a plausible solution to the problem. Slowly, he opened his eyes and turned over to look at Tian'er.

What entered his field of vision next shocked him to the core.

At this very moment, there was a thick layer of Saint Light that was coming off Tian'er's body. The rich, flavorful Saint Energy was emphasizing her delicate body, making her look like a saintess. Even Zhou Weiqing could feel the hint of coercion from that sacred invincible atmosphere.

In an instant, he realized that Tian'er was actually deep in her cultivation process now. Not only that, the speed that she was absorbing the Atmospheric Energy was so nimble that it could only be described by the word 'horrifying'.

"She actually found a way to cultivate? B-But how?" He was completely taken aback.

Right at this moment, all of a sudden, Zhou Weiqing could see that the Heavenly jewels on her hand started to slow down from its originally fast rotating speed. A faint shadow suddenly appeared on both her hands and slowly solidified into matter.

In an instant, he was hit with a hard realization. Fiercely slapping his thighs, he thought to himself, "That's right! Why am I so stupid? Why didn't this simple method cross my mind at all?!"

Zhou Weiqing really wanted to slap himself hard. How could he miss such a simple theory? He was the one who overcomplicated the entire thing. In fact, the solution to this problem was actually very, very easy.

That was right! Though the Saint Energy had already fully filled up his and Tian'er's body, it was only in his veins, not his entire body. On top of that, even if the Saint Energy was already enough, their own cultivation level was still far from being able to solidify the Saint Nucleus Core. This was the reason why they needed to achieve a breakthrough with the Saint Energy instead of trying to cultivate or mobilize it. It was only after they had reached the upper Heavenly Zong-tier that they could have the opportunity to solidify the Saint Nucleus Core.

At the thought of this, Zhou Weiqing suddenly came to his senses like he had just been enlightened by something huge. Without wasting another second, he quickly entered his cultivation again and quietly recited his Immortal Deity Technique, activating his Saint Energy and pounded on his 29th Death Acupuncture Point.

Different techniques of cultivating the Heavenly Energy would have different breakthrough methods but it could not get any easier than Zhou Weiqing's cultivation method. Right now, his Immortal Deity Technique was only needed to break through his Death Acupuncture Point.

Before this, during his last breakthrough, he had only used Heavenly Energy before in entering his 28th Death Acupuncture Point. He had never used the Saint Energy in the past to make this leap. After all, he did not have much Saint Energy so he was not willing to use them at all in the past. However, since there was nothing else left other than the Saint Energy in his body, he could only use this to help him with his progress in his cultivation journey.

Under Zhou Weiqing's urge, the silverish white Saint Energy rushed straight towards the 29th Death Acupuncture Point under the guidance of the Immortal Deity Technique.

The fourth stage of the Immortal Deity Technique – The Death Acupuncture Points on the head and neck.

The first point was the Renying. It's known as Man's Prognosis Point which and is located 1.5 inches away from the Adam's apple that he had successfully opened before. Right now, the point that he was aiming for was the second Death Acupuncture Point on his head and neck region –

The Wind Pool Point.

It was located on the lower border of the occipital bone in the depression between the origins of the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles. These functioned as the meeting point of the gallbladder and Sanjiao Channels with the Yang Motility and Yang Linking Vessels. When it was hit, it would impact the medullary center and could cause the victim to become unconscious.

The Saint Energy continued to revolve and move around his veins. Under the attack of the Saint Energy, the veins that were originally closed was pried open bluntly one after the other. Not only that, under the creativity of this energy, it was increasingly being consolidated and broadened, leaving no scruples in attacking the Death Acupuncture.

On top of that, Zhou Weiqing also noticed that when he began to activate his Saint Energy to raid the Death Accupuncture, the energy had begun to be slowly be consumed in his bloated body. Though the consumption was low, it was at least gradually being used up in his cultivation.

Crack.

Without any hardship, the Wind Pool Point was broken just like that. What astonished Zhou Weiqing was the fact that the Saint Energy broke through the Wind Pool Point without him feeling even the slightest amount of pain, not even a little bit. On the contrary, his body felt rather light and in that instance, the Saint Energy in his body rushed out as it created a Death Acupuncture energy whirlpool at the Wind Pool Point. The situation where his power leaked out during his breakthrough when he used Heavenly Energy did not happen this time, let alone any other dangers.

"T-That's it?" Zhou Weiqing was stunned reflecting on his success in breaking through the 29th Death Acupuncture Point. He watched the surging of the great amount of Saint Energy to the point and how it began to change his body.

Just like that, 300 drops of Saint Energy disappeared in a blink of eyes. The bloated feeling that he felt a while ago dissipated along with it.

"Wow, who knew using Saint Energy for my breakthrough was so easy?! Could it be that my Immortal Deity Technique was specially tailored to use Saint Energy?"

Chapter 675

Could it be that… His Immortal Deity Technique was tailored for the sake of Saint Energy?

What a simple, smooth breakthrough of the 29th Death Acupuncture Point! Zhou Weiqing was completely struck dumb by astonishment. After all, his breakthrough of the 28th Death Acupuncture Point that enabled him to enter the seventh jewel level just took place a short, short while ago. I've already broken through the 29th Death Acupuncture Point? Other than finding it to be beyond logic and above reason, there were absolutely no other words that Zhou Weiqing's could use to describe this phenomenon.

It looked like he did not even have to store his energy if he used the Saint Energy to cultivate his Immortal Deity Technique. Even though he had not attempted it yet, he knew that he would need more Saint Energy to break through the next Death Acupuncture Point. Calming the excitement that he felt in wanting to try for the next breakthrough, he gradually ended his cultivation.

At the moment, it was apparent that he could not cultivate continuously to the next breakthrough. Although the Saint Energy in his body was more than enough, he still needed to revive Hui Yao the dragon with Tian'er later. Only God knew how much energy he would need to do that. Even if it was the majestic Saint Energy, the horrifying possibility of it being depleted in the process still exists. In order to ensure there wouldn't be any failure in the resurrection plan, he needed to conserve the Saint Energy in his body as much as possible so that he could help support Tian'er during the resurrection. As for his own breakthrough, well, what was there to be worried of now that he had made such an astounding discovery? Since he still wanted to go to the Heavenly Snow Mountain, it would be better for him to solve this immediate problem first.

Zhou Weiqing noticed another marvelous discovery. After he used up 300 drops of Saint Energy, it was immediately replenished with Heavenly Energy. Although this Heavenly Energy was not the real Saint Energy, the essence of Saint Energy that was mixed in it was pretty rich. It was obvious that the Heavenly Energy that he had was different from the original Heavenly Energy. Because of the presence of the Saint Energy, he could vaguely feel that if he was to engage in a combat, as long as he did not directly unleash his Saint Energy to cast his techniques, the Heavenly Energy in his body would be almost inexhaustible.

Although his cultivation base was only at the Seventh Jewel, the vast amount of Saint Energy that he possessed had made him much, much stronger than his level. As for his actual combat effectiveness? Well, he himself was unable to answer the question as well.

The dragon was still resting as it would need more time to recover. Zhou Weiqing opened his eyes and called out to Tian'er softly.

Opening her eyes, she saw the hand that he stretched out towards her. Immediately, she understood his thoughts. The two of them held onto each other's hands and once again, the huge Saint Energy Whirlpool started to swirl again.

At once, strong intense Saint Energy's ripples spread out from their bodies. Whether it was the dragon or the three Shangguan's sisters, their bodies trembled subtly as they bathed in the rays of the Saint Energy. Apparently, it was quite a boost to all of them.

When they were not devouring outside matter, Zhou Weiqing and Tian'er used their four great saint attributes to cultivate their Saint Energy. Last time, even if they cultivated one whole day, they could only obtain 10 drops of Saint Energy and that was if there was enough Atmospheric Energy in the air for them to use.

However, this time, after they had activated the huge Saint Energy Whirlpool, joy filled their hearts at once. It was because they had both noticed that even though the overall volume of the huge Saint Energy Whirlpool was not altered at all, it had been solidified many more times than it was previously. The Atmospheric Energy in the Lustre Spatial Realm was madly rushing in into their huge Saint Energy Whirlpool in an extremely exaggerated manner.

Although the energy influx was extremely huge, the pressure was still able to be borne by the huge Saint Energy Whirlpool. At the centre of the whirlpool, droplets of Saint Energy was slowly flowing in. Although the speed was not too fast, it was in some ways much stronger than before. At the very least, it only took 5 breaths for the second drop to regenerate after the first one was done. With such a cultivation speed, they could easily generate 100 drops of Saint Energy in a day, or perhaps more. If they could maintain this cultivation speed in the future, it would be more than enough even if they did not devour any Heavenly beast.

In order not to disturb the other's cultivation, Zhou Weiqing whispered at Tian'er and told her about the situation of the Immortal Deity Technique cultivation.

The moment she heard his story, Tian'er was completely startled. She glanced up at Zhou Weiqing and after a moment of pondering, she whispered back, "Weiqing, I think you need to continue to cultivate. Duo Si has used up a lot of her power earlier so I think she needs at least 10 days before she could fully recover. Now that we're able to generate the Saint Energy in such a fast speed, I'm sure it would be more than enough to support your consumption in these 10 days. You can't simply pass up such a good opportunity! God knows how much Saint Energy we would be left with after we revive that gigantic dragon. You might as well seize this opportunity to push your cultivation base up a notch."

Zhou Weiqing replied, "Do you sense anything different at all? Like did your cultivation speed improved or something?"

Tian'er shook her head, "Yeah, it's apparent that my cultivation speed has improved and I could also feel that I would be able to breakthrough very soon but still, mine is not in the same class as your Immortal Deity Technique. If your technique is able to break through the rest of the Death Acupuncture Points, I'm pretty sure that you'd be able to enter the ninth jewel level in no time. At that time, you can also solidify your Saint Energy into the Saint Core Nucleus first. Now, both of our Saint Energy added up together is around 6000 drops and even if that's not enough, I don't think you'd be far from achieving that. We could each solidify part of our Saint Energy and help you make your breakthrough. We're going to face more dangers in the future and in order to reach the Heavenly King level from the upper ninth jewel, your Heavenly Energy would need to go from the 36th level to the 40th level. But at that time, your Immortal Deity Technique would already have reached its maximum ninth jewel so you'd need more time to explore your other options."

Under Tian'er's encouragement, Zhou Weiqing finally agreed to the suggestion after thinking about it deeply. However, he would not use all of his Saint Energy up at ago. After discussing with Tian'er, he decided to cultivate and regenerate his Saint Energy at the same time in order to ensure that both of their Saint Energy would never be lower than 2000 droplets.

Without wasting any time, the second attack on his Death Acupuncture Point quickly took place again. Similar to the previous one, when Zhou Weiqing mobilized his Saint Energy to revolve according to the Immortal Deity Technique's pathway, there was no obstacle at all, not even in his head region. Soon after, he successfully made another breakthrough at the 30th Death Acupuncture Point. This time, he had consumed 350 drops of Saint Energy. Had he not known beforehand that the droplets of Saint Energy were merged back into his body after he had used it up in his breakthrough, he would probably feel very reluctant to see the Saint Energy being used up so fast.

In just one go, the 31st Death Acupuncture Point was pried open in no time at all. At first, Zhou Weiqing wanted to stop and wait for his Saint Energy to regenerate before he started again, but he was stopped by Tian'er. Immediately, she passed 1,000 drops of Saint Energy to him and support him to continue his breakthrough on the 32nd Death Acupuncture Point, increasing his cultivation base up to the eighth jewel.

The instance the 32nd Death Acupuncture Point was broken through, all Zhou Weiqing felt was that all of the pores in his body were entirely blasted open, all of the 32 Death Acupuncture's Chi current was speeding up its revolving speed. The huge Saint Energy Whirlpool that was created by him and Tian'er had also started to speed up, shortening the time they needed to absorb the Atmospheric Energy. They only needed 3 to 4 breaths now to generate 1 drop of Saint Energy. With such a speed, they could gather at least 100 Saint Energy in just 2 hours.

Unlike human beings, a Heavenly Jewel Master had a longer gaseous pulse, therefore their breath was much longer than a normal human being.

After he had made it into the eighth jewel level, Zhou Weiqing had already consumed up to a total of 1500 drops of Saint Energy, leaving him slightly distressed over the wastage. Fortunately, the number was equally shared by both of them so he could still accept it.

He did not continue to try and make another breakthrough. Instead, he stopped and activated the huge Saint Energy Whirlpool together with Tian'er to regenerate the Saint Energy.

They did not realize that it had been a full three months since they last entered the Lustre Spatial Realm. Before this, they had spent nearly two months just to devour the Destruction Energy alone but because of some mysterious, abstruse circumstances, both of them did realize it at all.

Day after day, time slowly passed away. In just a blink of an eye, another 10 days had gone by.

A deep dragonish grunt suddenly sounded, waking up the three Shangguan sisters who were in the midst of cultivation. When they opened their eyes, they could see that Duo Si the dragon was slowly rising up from the ground, sparkles were restored in her orbs.

It was also at this time that a whistle rang out from Zhou Weiqing's mouth. The silverish white light that was emitted by him and Tian'er's bodies turned brighter all of a sudden, shooting up to the sky like a silverish white light beam.

Letting go of Tian'er's hand, under the surprised gaze of everybody else, his body suddenly floated up without warning. The silverish white light on his body gradually turned to into a brilliant gold color.

Unlike the gold color of Tian'er's Divine Attribute, the gold that was emitted out of Zhou Weiqing's body was filled with a sense of tyrannical and domineering power. Not only could the domineering power be sensed in his imposing manner, it had a special kind of existence like it was a whole other attribute of its own. The strong golden light did not have the slightest sense of energy but it felt like it was a matter that could occupy space instead.

Right at that moment, the golden light emitted from his body suddenly vanished without warning. What followed next was the lighting up of the 36 Death Acupuncture Points on his body, it made him look like he was decorated with stars. The golden light that vanished earlier suddenly reappeared again. All of a sudden, like a gigantic whirlwind that swept away clouds, Zhou Weiqing's body began to devour the Atmospheric Energy in the air like a sea that could hold water from thousands of rivers.

"W-What's happening?" Shangguan Bing'er quickly asked Tian'er in an anxious tone.

A smile crept up on Tian'er's face, "His Immortal Deity Technique is going to be completed."

That was right. Ten days of efforts, ten days of cultivation and Saint Energy regeneration. During the final spurt on the last Death Acupuncture Point, the Hundred Convergences Point, he actually used up more than 1,000 Saint Energy. After that, he and Tian'er worked hard to restore the Saint Energy in their bodies to the maximum as he held back the feelings of having all of his points interconnected during the last spurt. It was only until Duo Si had awakened that he let go of the suppression.

At this very moment, all the 36th Death Acupuncture Points that he had opened in his body started connecting to one another, just like a star map. That powerful and domineering golden light was a sign that Zhou Weiqing had managed to cultivate his Immortal Deity Technique to the maximum state. Unlike before, the Immortal Deity technique was no longer just a defensive and resistive mechanism for him.

Chapter 676

Shangguan Fei'er suddenly exclaimed, "Look at his wrists!"

The three Shangguan sisters quickly shifted their eyes. Gaping in astonishment, their eyes widened in shock. Nine dazzling Heavenly Jewels were appearing on Zhou Weiqing's wrists at this moment.

This had completely gone beyond the logic that they understood. They thought to themselves, "In just 10 freaking days?! How could he possibly increase his level from the seventh to the ninth jewel in such a short time? He's not even 22 years old yet for f*cks sake!" It was not that there was nobody who had managed to reach the Upper level of Heavenly Zong before 30 years old but it was extremely rare! From the looks of Zhou Weiqing's current situation, it was very likely that he would be able to reach the Heavenly King level before he turned 30.

The metallic light drew inwards all of a sudden, creating a series of strange changes on his body without warning. Like a golden statue descending from the sky, Zhou Weiqing landed on the ground lightly. All the domineering energy was absorbed back into his body, vanishing without a trace. At once, everything seemed to return to normal. Be that as it may, the four girls who were familiar with him could feel that the man in front of them was completely different from the man they knew.

Before this, his looks could only be considered presentable, definitely not handsome. But now, there was a touch of wild and rugged charm about him. Radiant light sparkled from his eyes, as sharp as a treasured sword, giving off a feeling of a destructive artifact that would destroy his enemies anytime he liked.

What was even more shocking was the fact that in just a short amount of time, all the Atmospheric Energy from at least several hundred square meters away was completely absorbed by him. Currently, the Atmospheric Energy from the outside world was flowing towards the now empty region, resulting in a massive energy ripple that left a deep impression on everybody.

The Ninth Jewel, Upper Level Heavenly Zong. To most Heavenly Jewel Masters, this was probably the highest level that they could achieve in their entire lives. Zhou Weiqing had managed to achieve such a feat in just a short amount of time. Currently, he possessed a massive amount of Heavenly Energy and by the time he was equipped with a fitting Ringless Ground Purging Set, his power would no doubt be elevated a few times higher. Then, if by chance, he came face to face with someone on the Heavenly King tier, there would still a possibility of him winning the battle. "H-How is this possible?" Shangguan Xue���er muttered to herself as she stared at Zhou Weiqing skeptically.

As the heir to the Heaven's Expanse Palace, she had known all along that she was much more outstanding than the other Heavenly Jewel Masters who were the same age as her. However, right now, looking at Zhou Weiqing who had already mastered nine jewels, she knew that in this instance, she was no longer in the same league as him.

After a short period of surprise, Xue'er was able to piece the puzzle together. Other than the Saint Energy, what other things out there could have such a remarkable effect? However, the three Shangguan sisters were not able to cultivate the Saint Energy. Even Xue'er felt slightly surprised looking at Zhou Weiqing who had grown so strong. However, she did not feel the slightest bit of jealousy nor did she feel the desire to contend for the upper hand at all. Instead, she felt very happy for him.

She was taken aback by her feelings, she thought to herself, "C-Could it be that I've acknowledged the fact that I'm his? And I'm totally okay with being his sidekick?" Looking at her own two sisters and Tian'er, Xue'er sighed helplessly, "He is such a playboy!"

Lowering his head to look at his own body, Zhou Weiqing could feel that his entire body was filled with an energy that was about to explode at any given time. What was even more strange was the fact that there were some changes in the color of his Saint Energy. The originally silverish white color now had a touch of gold in it like a layer of film coating the Saint Energy.

The Saint Energy was the highest level energy that had ever existed. Seeing the layer of gold that was still rich in color and not diffused by the Saint Energy, it must have meant that the layer of energy must be at an equally high level as well.

That was the effect of the Immortal Deity Technique after it was fully completed. Even Zhou Weiqing had no idea what it was but he could clearly feel the aura of tyranny that it possessed.

Zhou Weiqing was not the first person to cultivate the Immortal Deity Technique. However, he was definitely the first to complete its entire cultivation, opening up all 36 major Death Cultivation Points successfully.

When the Saint Energy was revolving around his body, it could already self-coordinate and after the whirlwind-like devour earlier, he noticed that the mini Saint Energy Whirlpool in his body had already vanished without a trace, leaving only the whirlpools that were activated by the 36 major Death Acupuncture Points. Be that as it may, the whirlpools had all completely transformed into the purest Saint Energy. In the swirls of the whirlpools, the Saint Energy had started to circulate in his body. In other words, he no longer had to worry about his Saint Energy being depleted and not recovering at all.

He had completely transformed his Heavenly Energy into Saint Energy with the Immortal Deity Technique and from now on, he would only possess Saint Energy in his body, there would be no more of Heavenly Energy.

Perhaps it was because that transformation that the Heavenly Jewels on Zhou Weiqing's wrists began to show peculiar changes. The Ice Jade Physical Jewel on his right hand had completely turned into silverish white in color, the color of the Saint Energy, while the Alexandrite Cat's Eye Gem Elemental Jewel had an additional layer of golden luster on the outside.

Even though Zhou Weiqing had no idea what level he was currently at, there was one thing that he was sure about. He no longer felt the immense pressure that he first felt when he was facing Duo Si the dragon.

For the sake of cultivating the Immortal Deity Technique, he had been through a lot of hardship for it. He had finally, finally cultivated the technique to its highest level. Even if he had no idea how or where he was going to proceed next on the cultivation path, at the very least, he had completely mastered the Immortal Deity Technique. The pain and worries that he once had to endure for the sake of this cultivation were gone with the wind. He could not help but whistle loudly again, expressing the great joy and satisfaction in his heart. He felt truly at ease and pleased.

"Congratulations, young man. Even I cannot see your true ability now," Astonishment filled Duo Si's eyes that also had a hint of joy in them. Without a doubt, Zhou Weiqing's breakthrough was absolutely good news for her. The chances of reviving her husband was bound to be much higher now.

"Let us start," Looking at Duo Si's hopeful eyes, he nodded his head at the dragon. After such a long time here, everything was finally ready. It was time to resurrect Hui Yao the dragon.

Staring at Zhou Weiqing, Tian'er's heart was filled with pride. Despite the fact that she was only at the Seventh Jewel stage, her man had become so powerful and strong. Somehow, she was much happier for him than her elevating her cultivation base herself. Furthermore, she knew that even her own father would never be able to achieve Zhou Weiqing's cultivation base when he was at Zhou Weiqing's age.

Zhou Weiqing pulled Tian'er's hand and walked towards Hui Yao again before telling Duo Si, "Duo Si, please stay close to me. If Tian'er doesn't have enough power to finish the process, I would need to borrow your power."

Duo Si stepped forward and immediately, it reached their side in just a single huge stride. Again, it bent down and said, "Thank you so much for your help. As long as my husband is resurrected, I'm willing to do anything for it. You can use my strength as you like."

While she spoke, she lifted her dragon claws towards Zhou Weiqing and at that moment, its heart was filled with deep anxiety. As the saying went – higher expectations will lead to greater disappointments. It did not know whether it would lose its mind if the resurrection somehow did not go as well as it had hoped.

Zhou Weiqing consoled the dragon earnestly, "Don't worry, Duo Si. No matter what, we will do our best to help you resurrect Hui Yao. Who knows, perhaps we can resurrect him without even using your power at all. Right now, I've complete confidence that Hui Yao will stand in front of you once again.

It was not just an empty promise. The Saint Energy in his body was finally able to regenerate on its own, which meant that he could deliver a great deal of Saint Energy to Tian'er during the resurrection process. A Resurrection Skill that had sufficient Saint Energy would enhance the probability of success by manifold.

Zhou Weiqing nodded towards Tian'er, "Let's do it!"

Just from the thoughts in their mind, the huge Saint Energy Whirlpool that was being led by him activated again. Currently, Zhou Weiqing could feel that he was completely different from before. Like a deep ocean, the huge whirlpool that he led seemed to be boundless with no end.

A dark golden light lit up, and the God Vanquishing Heavenly Spirit suit appeared on Tian'er's body. Under the shrine of the Saint Energy, her divine aura was immediately enveloped by a layer of golden divine luster.

Holding her God Spirit Staff up high, she chanted a series of incantations. It was a language that Zhou Weiqing and the three Shangguan sisters could not understand. However, nobody realized that Duo Si actually understood the language of this ancient incantation. At present, the technique that was needed to use the incantation had gone extinct. Feeling the divine aura that was beginning to grow in power coming from Tian'er's body, Duo Si became even more hopeful than before.

Slowly, the Heavenly Skill Image of the Divine Heavenly Spirit Tiger appeared behind Tian'er. In just a blink of an eye, the shadow solidified into a real solid matter, looking exceptionally vivid and stunning. With a loud roar, its gigantic body leaped down abruptly, entering her body from the behind.

At once, bright glittering golden luster erupted from her body. That rich, flavorful divine luster even enveloped Zhou Weiqing body. The rich Heavenly Energy's ripples began to climb steadily until it reached the peak. Tiger tattoos began to form on Tian'er's delicate skin as well. Still, the tattoo was different from the one that Zhou Weiqing had during his Demonic Change last time. The tiger tattoo on her body was more like an accessory, giving her an aura of ruggedness and wildness to her originally stunning body.

In stark contrast to the divine golden luster that erupted from her entire being, Tian'er's eyes turned into a shade of deep purple. Purple lights could be seen shooting out from her eyes, carrying with it a strong and powerful mental ripple.

Chapter 677

For those from the Divine Heavenly Spirit Tiger bloodline, casting the Resurrection Skill was a huge burden to the user, it would never be completed without the Spirit Saint Attribute. Even if it was the Mountain Lord of the Snow Mountain who cast this technique, caution still had to be observed. Not only that, the amount of energy used in the process would differ based on the target of resurrection. After all, resurrecting a mouse and a dragon would, of course, consume a different amount of energy.

Her right hand that was holding the God Spirit Staff gradually started to move around. Lines were drawn in the sky, sketching complex golden symbols that solidified into golden lights one after another in the air.

After the symbols were fully drawn, they floated directly up to the sky and hovered above Hui Yao's body. Every time there was an addition of a new symbol, a new ray of golden light would emit from the symbol as it entered Hui Yao's body.

Right now, Zhou Weiqing who was sustaining the huge Saint Energy Whirlpool with Tian'er did not feel anything yet. So far, all of the energy that Tian'er used was her own Heavenly Energy, not the Saint Energy. After all, Tian'er's Saint Energy had not reached the stage where it could regenerate by itself. For that reason, she chose to use Heavenly Energy first to cast her technique.

The time it took to activate the Resurrection Skill was a lot longer than they had expected. It had taken them 2 hours just for the preparation. When the 108th golden symbol emerged from thin air, all the symbols suddenly came together to form a gigantic golden halo in the air.

Right at that moment, Tian'er paused for a moment before casting a glance at Zhou Weiqing. He instantly started to feel nervous. He knew that from this point onwards, the real resurrection process was about to take place. Tian'er was finally done with all the preparatory work.

Whoosh!

The 108 golden symbols that were hovering on top of Hui Yao seemed to have activated on their own simultaneously. Without warning, they dropped from the sky and entered Hui Yao's body.

All of a sudden, the Atmospheric Energy in the air began to ripple rapidly. A bright golden beam suddenly erupted from the God Spirit Staff on Tian'er's hand, piercing its way through the clouds up to the sky.

At that instance, the entire Lustre Spatial Realm quaked because of the rising golden beam. In a blink of an eye, the beam was infused into the center of the 108 golden symbols.

At that moment, Zhou Weiqing could feel the Heavenly Energy in Tian'er pouring out in torrents from her body into the God Spirit Staff that she was holding.

A layer of golden luster slowly began to form a combination of the 108 golden symbols before enveloping the entire body of Hui Yao the dragon. The originally red color of its body now had a shine of brilliant gold.

The Resurrection Skill was a technique that countervailed the creator of heaven and earth. Every time the technique was activated, those who witnessed the technique would receive a different enlightening in their hearts.

Slowly closing his eyes, Zhou Weiqing activated his Immortal Deity Technique, the golden whirlpool from before appeared once again. Actually, it was not a real whirlpool but when his body turned golden in color, the Atmospheric Energy would be sucked in by him in a horrifyingly rapid speed that looked like a whirlpool was being activated on his body. Even the speed of Tian'er's God Spirit Staff absorbing the Atmospheric Energy was far slower than him.

Not to say that the God Spirit Staff was not powerful but it was just that Zhou Weiqing's Immortal Deity Technique was far too compelling. Not only that, his cultivation base was also at a much higher level compared to Tian'er.

The golden beam that was shooting out of the God Spirit Staff started to have a hint of silverish white color in it. In just such a short amount of time, Tian'er's Heavenly Energy had been completely depleted and at the moment, the energy that she was unleashing was the Saint Energy. With the Saint Energy joining in the mix, Tian'er's face finally eased off a little. After the Saint Energy was unleashed into the technique, the energy consumption rate dropped drastically, a far cry from earlier when she was using her Heavenly Energy.

Duo Si was looking at them nervously at the side. Its claw remained unmoved in front of Zhou Weiqing, just in case he needed to use it; the other dragon claw had long dug into the hard rock on the ground, showing how nervous it was, watching the scene that was unfolding in front of its eyes.

The three Shangguan sisters who were standing behind were so nervous that they did not even dare to breathe out loud. The most nervous of all was none other than Shangguan Xue'er. After all, the resurrection of the dragon was related to the safety of the entire Lustre Spacial Realm which meant it was also related to the safety of the millions of commoners residing in Zhongtian City. How could she possibly not feel nervous about it?

The golden light that fell upon Hui Yao continually seeped into its body. Like a gigantic sponge, its body kept absorbing the massive amount of divine energy.

Between Tian'er and him, Zhou Weiqing was the one that felt more tired. Under his Immortal Deity Technique, the Atmospheric Energy was constantly being absorbed and transformed by him into Saint Energy before it was being passed on to Tian'er. Like a converter, she would convert the Saint Energy that she received from him into Divine Energy before inserting it into the Resurrection Skill.

Currently, a faint smile could be seen playing on Tian'er's mouth. She did not expect that using the Saint Energy to cast this technique would have a far slower consumption speed. No doubt, she had faith that she would definitely be able to complete the technique. However, whether Hui Yao would be resurrected or not was a different story. That would have to depend on God's will.

Just like that, a day had passed. Zhou Weiqing's face appeared to be slightly paler than usual. Although he could regenerate the Saint Energy in his own body now, it still could not withstand the prolonged consumption of the Resurrection Skill. Being able to keep it up for one whole day showed how tough he was, although he had already strained himself to the limit. Perhaps, not even a Heavenly King tier person could endure it.

All of a sudden, Zhou Weiqing opened his eyes and looked at Duo Si.

From the very start, Duo Si had never moved its eyes away from Hui Yao. As a couple, it had the most profound perception towards its husband. Duo Si could clearly feel that under the Resurrection Skill, its husband's vitality was beginning to be restored and now, finally, a weak heartbeat could be heard and the heartbeat was getting stronger and stronger with every passing second.

All of a sudden, Duo Si's body quivered without warning. Quickly turning its head over to look at Zhou Weiqing, it saw that his palm that was casting the Demonic Devour had made contact with its claw.

Duo Si nodded its head at him as it unleashed its horrifying Heavenly God tier Heavenly Energy, letting Zhou Weiqing access the power that it had.

The fact that he was able to hold out for one whole day was more than enough to leave a great impression in Duo Si's mind. It could clearly sense the petrifying Heavenly Energy consumption speed of the Resurrection Skill and this man was actually able to persist for so long? Even Duo Si, who was at the Heavenly God-tier, was alarmed by his ability.

Once the Demonic Devour was activated, relief could be seen on Zhou Weiqing's face. With the completion of the Immortal Deity Technique, all 36 major Death Acupuncture Points and meridians were much tougher than ordinary people by several times. For that reason, the Demonic Devour was able to transform the Saint Energy without any difficulties as well.

Before, Zhou Weiqing had tried to devour the Heavenly Energy of Heavenly King beasts but compared to Duo Si, those beasts were like ants to Duo Si's elephant. The pure Fire Attribute Heavenly Energy in Duo Si's body was like a vast ocean. Although it could not be compared to the Heavenly Energy at all, the amount that it possessed was extremely vast, so vast that it stretched far off into the distance and out of sight. At the moment, Zhou Weiqing's devouring speed could be considered as extremely speedy but somehow, it did not seem to affect Duo Si at all.

With such an 'insurance' by his side, Zhou Weiqing immediately increased the Saint Energy output that he passed on to Tian'er. Before this, she had told him that after the Resurrection Spell was cast, the shorter the completion time, the greater the chances of resurrecting the dragon would be. Now that there was no need to worry about the depletion of Saint Energy anymore, he, of course, sped up the process without any hesitation.

Gradually, strange changes began to appear on Hui Yao's body. The gigantic body that was rendered in gold by the Divine halo slowly had golden stars emerging on the skin. Hints of vitality started to throb from its gigantic body.

It meant that the Resurrection Skill had finally completed the process of reviving the body's vitality. What was left now was the awakening of its soul. Only when the soul and body completely combine that the Resurrection process could be called a success.

It was also for this reason that generally, the Resurrection technique would have to be performed within 2 hours after the victim's death. It was because during this time, the soul had not fully dissipated yet. But of course, dragons had Nucleus Core that helped converge its soul so there was no need to worry about the soul dissipating after its death. However, there had never been any precedent for resurrecting a dragon in the history of Divine Heavenly Spirit Tiger, nobody knew whether they would succeed or not.

Tian'er's face turned serious at once. The God Spirit Staff in her hand drew much more complex golden lines compared to the ones earlier. With a shout, the lines suddenly gleamed brightly before it was imprinted on the dragon's forehead.

In an instant, Zhou Weiqing could feel that half of his Saint Energy was being sucked out by Tian'er. The moment the golden lines touched the dragon's forehead, the gigantic head rose up without warning. Between the dragon's orbs on the central skull position, a blinding golden light suddenly burst out.

At that moment, the horrifying energy ripples trembled violently, releasing a sense of tyrannical pressure that forced Zhou Weiqing and the girls to retreat hastily from their positions.

Quickly, Duo Si cast a red light shade, enveloping the five of them in that light. Its eyes had never been so bright as it stared in a trance at its husband's lifted head. The claws that Zhou Weiqing was holding on to was trembling uncontrollably. Now that the Resurrection had reached its final stage, Duo Si's heart was filled with anxiety.

Tian'er pointed the God Spirit Staff outwards. Her body began to tremble slightly, too. It was apparent that the amount of Saint Energy that she could bear had already reached its limit.

Another golden symbol was drawn on the sky. Tian'er called forth all her energy and at once, the golden symbol was imprinted on Hui Yao's forehead once again.

The bright dazzling golden light was so blinding that none of them could open their eyes. All of a sudden, the golden light vanished as it merged with Hui Yao's body. Promptly, its gigantic head began to lift up high.

Just as Duo Si was about to cheer out loud and rejoice, Hui Yao's gigantic head suddenly fell and slammed on the ground fiercely without warning.
