Chapter 3094: The Two-Step Plan of Lingxu Shenzun

"Original factory equipment, that's what it is."

"What?" Naluotian didn't understand.

"Nothing." He Lingchuan rubbed his face, his heart heavy, "With such a heaven-defying effect, there must be some limits, right?"

""

Qi Huotian really is a talent, dying so well.

"Of course there is." Naluotian added, "Because after decomposition, it still has to pass through Tianluo Star, and after landing, it still needs to be restored, so the number of deities passing through each time cannot exceed twenty, to avoid chaos. Of course, this is still very far from Qihuotian's original intention in creating 'Spring Wind and Rain,' but he hadn't had time to improve it before he was killed."

Qihuotian's original intention was to use 'Spring Wind and Rain' to bring a large number of deities into the mortal realm, not just smuggle a few dozen at a time.

With so many deities in the Heavenly Realm, relying solely on this back-and-forth transport, how many trips would be needed?

Moreover, each activation of 'Spring Wind and Rain' requires a long charge, at least an interval of three hundred and sixty days.

"Once a year?" He Lingchuan laughed helplessly, "Only usable once a year. This 'Spring Wind and Rain' is just a semi-finished product."

Naluotian said: "A semi-finished product is enough."

He Lingchuan gradually withdrew his smile and sighed.

What Naluotian said is correct; by simply changing the usage, the carrying capacity of 'Spring Wind and Rain' would be sufficient.

No wonder Lingxu Shenzun divided the divine descent into two batches.

The first batch to descend were all ordinary deities, who used the divine descent husks created by occupying Ruiyin Shenjun's bodies.

The second batch were the great demons, who would use 'Spring Wind and Rain' to decompose their original forms, project them into the mortal realm, and then reassemble.

This way, they could descend directly with their original forms, fundamentally without needing to occupy Ruiyin Shenjun's divine body quotas!

And the total number of great demons fundamentally cannot fill the quota limit of 'Spring Wind and Rain,' allowing them all to descend to the mortal realm at once!

Both descent methods were used by Lingxu Shenzun. This resolves the core contradiction that the divine bodies created by occupying Ruiyin Shenjun are insufficient to simultaneously bear the descent needs of ordinary demons and great demons.

Lingxu Shenzun is also a damn genius.

He Lingchuan thought for a moment, then asked Naluotian: "If the great demons descend into the mortal realm using 'Spring Wind and Rain,' do they still need to create corresponding guiding formations on the mortal realm's ground?"

"Heh, this is unclear." Naluotian said frankly, "This answer probably only Qihuotian himself can give you. Qihuotian's son doesn't know this detail either. However—"

""

He then continued: "When great deities descend using 'Spring Wind and Rain,' their souls and bodies must necessarily separate. 'Spring Wind and Rain' can only carry their bodies."

"That is to say, the souls of the great demons also need to fly to the ground to find their own original forms, right?"

"Exactly." Naluotian let out a hum of laughter, "Well, I've said what I needed to say, I'm leaving."

The human face formed from smoke was about to disappear, but He Lingchuan raised his hand and said: "Wait. Why are you helping me like this?"

Naluotian chuckled: "Helping you? I'm helping myself, and also helping the Heavenly Realm."

If it were He Chuanhua asking, Naluotian wouldn't pay him any heed. But Jiuxiu is different.

This fellow, having transformed from a mere divine descent husk into today's Jiuxiu Great Emperor capable of directly resisting Lingxu Shenzun, already has the qualification to converse equally with Naluotian, and also the qualification to let Naluotian speak a few more true words.

"I originally thought you only wanted the Lingxu deities to descend quickly, so the Heavenly Realm could quickly regain peace. Now it seems you also want them to suffer greatly in the mortal realm.

In He Lingchuan's view, the Heavenly Realm has two troublemakers: one is Lady Lady Lady Mitian, and the other is Naluotian.

Lady Lady Lady Mitian's actions, He Lingchuan can still understand—his previous incarnation, the Ancient God of Death, was killed by the gods led by Lingxu Shenzun through treachery, so he harbors strong hostility toward demons.

But why does Naluotian persistently oppose Lingxu Shenzun like this? Even going so far as to collude with He Lingchuan, a mortal power.

In the eyes of Lingxu Shenzun and the Lingxu deities, Naluotian must be a traitor of the Heavenly Realm.

"That's only natural." He Lingchuan could sense deep hatred from Naluotian's calm tone, "For the past several thousand years, the peace of the Heavenly Realm has merely been an illusion. Do you know that before the ancient war, that is, before we discovered the mortal realm, the Heavenly Realm's resources were nearly exhausted. Lingxu Shenzun then used his prestige from overthrowing the Three Holy Gods to establish the Lingxu deities, hunting down other deities everywhere to satisfy his own spiritual energy needs."

He Lingchuan understood: "Cannibalism among kin."

When resources and territory are insufficient, kin will mutually squeeze and even devour each other. This cruel scene in nature, it turns out, also once occurred in the Heavenly Realm.

"Later, Lingxu Shenzun used the reformed Tianluo Star to absorb the demonic energy from the mortal realm, and only then did the Heavenly Realm's resources gradually become abundant.

But the Lingxu deities also benefited the most. Other deities, like me, at most only got a fair share of dew and rain, able to get a bowl of leftover scraps."

He Lingchuan nodded: "Yes. Since the Heavenly Realm's vital energy has become abundant, the Lingxu deities naturally no longer need to hunt other deities to survive and develop.

The Heavenly Realm thereby entered an era of prosperity.

"However, the appearance of the Dragon-Punishing Pillar again broke this balance. This is also thanks to you and the Great Vessel."

He Lingchuan shrugged, showing no guilt.

The Dragon-Punishing Pillar is truly one of Lady Lady Lady Mitian's greatest inventions. Since its appearance, the stability and balance brought by Tianluo Star to the Heavenly Realm were quickly broken again, as the deities fought over the Dragon-Punishing Pillar with heads broken and blood flowing. The Lingxu deities repeatedly failed to suppress the chaos, and simply joined the fray themselves. This chaos became increasingly uncontrollable.

"Lingxu Shenzun and his subordinate deities are all malignant tumors of the Heavenly Realm. Without them, the entire Heavenly Realm would naturally be much more peaceful."

Naluotian's remark is indeed based on facts.

To gather the demonic energy and resources needed for descent, in recent years, Lingxu Shenzun has indeed stirred up one bloody storm after another in the Heavenly Realm. Just for seizing the divine artifact 'Spring Wind and Rain,' he killed Qihuotian and four hundred deities.

Know that the total number of deities in the entire Heavenly Realm is only several tens of thousands; this deployment alone eliminated nearly 1%, truly extreme cruelty.

If this were proportionally scaled to the mortal realm, it would equate to killing hundreds of millions of living beings in one breath, a great horror.

Lingxu Shenzun's actions have torn apart the hypocritical facade of the past three thousand years, causing the Heavenly Realm's deities to recall his thunderous and terrifying methods from before the ancient era.

"In my view, after the Heavenly Realm's demonic energy gradually became abundant, the deities' environment has already improved, and it might not be unable to circulate and adapt. But the Lingxu deities are never satisfied; they must seize ever more demonic energy, ever more resources. Even the demonic energy absorbed by Tianluo Star cannot satisfy them; Lingxu Shenzun still insists on descending to the mortal realm!"

Naluotian sneered: "If so, I will send them on their way."
