Chapter 824: Chapter 368: The Fuse of the Divine Country War
"Eternal existence? Duke?" Lin Qing couldn’t help but frown slightly.
He knew that the Instantaneous Void Spirit Flower would definitely be born within thirty-five million years.
Because the test the Light King gave him was to obtain an Instantaneous Void Spirit Flower within thirty-eight million years, which meant that the Instantaneous Void Spirit Flower must be born within thirty-eight million years.
"That’s not right... If all eternal existences would compete for it, why would His Majesty Guang Wang require me to obtain the Instantaneous Void Spirit Flower within thirty-eight million years?"
Lin Qing thought carefully and immediately noticed something was amiss.
The difficulty of this second test was clearly not targeted at eternal existences. Even if the Light King foresaw the future and thought he could break through to eternity within thirty-eight million years, it wouldn’t mean he could match a Duke-level figure in that time.
If that were the case, the difficulty of this test would be too outrageous, clearly unreasonable.
Anyone capable of becoming an eternal existence, as long as they wish to learn supreme secret techniques and are willing to join under the Emperor, can almost all learn the supreme secret techniques, and the proportion who create combined divine skills is also not low.
Those who stand as peak figures among eternal existences are terrifying powerhouses far beyond ordinary eternal existences!
Eternal Treasure Set, Combined Divine Skill, Supreme Secret Technique... these are all basic configurations, even just one step away from achieving the ultimate existence, and the strength is unimaginable.
Let alone Duke-level figures.
Reaching this level within thirty-eight million years is simply unrealistic.
"Perhaps there’s another mystery..." Lin Qing secretly speculated.
"What’s wrong?"
Marquis Star Refining noticed Lin Qing’s unusual expression and couldn’t help but ask, "Could it be that Mr. Jia Lin also wants to compete for the Instantaneous Void Spirit Flower?"
"I have the thought, but I’m afraid I can’t compete." Lin Qing said.
Marquis Star Refining laughed and said, "A group of eternal peak powerhouses is indeed hard to contend with."
He paused and said, "However, if His Majesty Guang Wang were willing to help you, the Instantaneous Void Spirit Flower would surely be yours."
"How would His Majesty Guang Wang intervene and compete with a group of eternal existences?" Lin Qing shook his head and said.
"It’s hard to say." Marquis Star Refining said: "Historically, there have been four instances of the Instantaneous Void Spirit Flower being born, but twice it was obtained by eternal existences of the Heavenly Light Divine Country. It’s said that these two instances of the Instantaneous Void Spirit Flower were very peculiar, and even the mysteries of descent into the future couldn’t locate their existence. It’s said the future lines where these two Instantaneous Void Spirit Flowers were located were covered."
"Cover future lines?" Lin Qing was astonished.
"Throughout the King Realm, only His Majesty Guang Wang has cultivated the ultimate existence of future rules and is also the Lord of the Divine Country." Marquis Star Refining said: "So, it’s very likely that His Majesty Guang Wang is the one who covered them."
He sighed and said, "In these two instances of the Instantaneous Void Spirit Flower’s birth, when various powerhouses arrived following the sensing, they found that the Instantaneous Void Spirit Flower had already been claimed by people of the Heavenly Light Divine Country."
Lin Qing suddenly understood.
So this is it... His Majesty Guang Wang would help cover the future lines?
In this way, he indeed could complete the second test, as long as after obtaining the Instantaneous Void Spirit Flower, he could protect it when facing the swarm of eternal powerhouses from all sides.
"Better quickly cultivate the mysteries of descent into the future to minor achievement..." Lin Qing decided secretly.
Marquis Star Refining had already faintly guessed in his heart but did not say much, just said: "In this selection trial, Mr. Jia Lin, as the commander of the first army of the Star Refining Army, only needs to be responsible for guarding the Transfer Star during the war."
He stood up and smiled, "The State Domain War will start in another one or two million years, Mr. Jia Lin can first go into seclusion for cultivation."
Lin Qing thought for a moment and said, "Does Marquis Star Refining still have those semi-finished Star Spirit Stone Marrows? Can you sell me a few drops?"
"I’ll give you ten drops." Marquis Star Refining said directly, "In the future, it will be deducted from your military contributions, with your strength, just by guarding the Transfer Star, earning back this amount of military contribution is more than enough."
"Thank you very much, Marquis Star Refining." Lin Qing immediately expressed his gratitude.
Previously, Marquis Star Refining advanced ten billion military contributions to him, and he exchanged it for a drop of Star Spirit Stone Marrow. Now, through the selection trial, he got another drop of Star Spirit Stone Marrow.
However, this genuine Star Spirit Stone Marrow greatly enhances comprehension, but the duration is short, more suitable for breaking through bottlenecks.
The semi-finished Star Spirit Stone Marrow, on the other hand, has a general effect on enhancing comprehension, but sustains for a long time, more suitable for long-term contemplation and cultivation.
With these ten drops of semi-finished Star Spirit Stone Marrow, his cultivation progress could be accelerated considerably, reaching the final bottleneck of merging the Future Body Mystery sooner would also mean an earlier breakthrough.
"It’s a small matter." Marquis Star Refining asked, "Do you need me to help maintain time acceleration?"
"No need to trouble the Marquis." Lin Qing immediately said, "There’s no rush for now."
The main reason is that the time limit given by His Majesty Guang Wang was calculated based on the time he personally experienced.
If too much time acceleration is used, the thirty-eight million years time limit might be reached before the Instantaneous Void Spirit Flower is born, which would be troublesome.
Anyway, he currently has no urgent situation, there’s no need to save this little time.
"Alright." Marquis Star Refining nodded slightly, "You can peacefully cultivate here on Heavenly Star Island. If you have any issues, feel free to find me."
"Thank you, Marquis." Lin Qing immediately expressed his thanks.
Once Marquis Star Refining left, he didn’t rush into seclusion for cultivation but instead entered the Chaos Trading House and sold off a bunch of Chaos Treasures he just acquired, gaining as much as over eighty million points.
As for that drop of Eternal Divine Blood, he kept it.
Although this drop of Eternal Divine Blood is worth three billion points at the Chaos Trading House, he doesn’t currently have that much he needs to buy.
Cultivate Supreme Treasure?
Even if he sold the Eternal Divine Blood, his savings would still be far from enough.
