Chapter 684: Breaking Through Ten Million Golden Source Points

A notification of Source Power being credited appeared in his mind.

After crushing the soul orb composed of the True Spirit fragments of Di Luo, Li Heng harvested another 2.5 million Golden Source Points, pushing his total number of Golden Source Points past the 10 million mark!

However, it was clear that the value of Di Luo had not been squeezed dry; after all, under normal circumstances, Di Luo was worth at least 10 million Golden Source Points, and now only 7.5 million had been harvested in total, leaving 2.5 million Golden Source Points unharvested.

The remaining unharvested portion should be related to that Gong Dian.

Li Heng looked at Di Youyou, who was leading the way for him, and pondered in his heart.

He was not worried that Di Youyou was lying to him or leading him into some desperate ambush; in any case, he now had 10 million Golden Source Points in hand, and no one could stop him.

He could even turn the tables and slaughter them all.

"If I am not mistaken, you should also be like that Di Luo, having entrusted your Primordial Spirit True Spirit inside that Gong Dian," Li Heng said out of the blue.

Di Youyou stopped for a moment, then nodded.

"It is indeed as you say. After entrusting my Primordial Spirit True Spirit, I did indeed obtain a more powerful, immortal, and indestructible strength; as long as that Gong Dian is not destroyed, I will not die."

"But..."

She turned her head, stared fixedly at Li Heng, and spoke softly.

"There is no free lunch in this world. The gifts destined by fate have long been marked with a price in the dark. To obtain immortality, one must pay something—for example, freedom, or the Great Dao."

"This is also why I said those words to my 'husband' earlier. Once you can destroy that Gong Dian and return my freedom, I would be willing to be your slave or maid."

Di Youyou said calmly, her tone extremely earnest.

"But looking at you, you don't believe I have such ability," Li Heng said, raising an eyebrow.

"Correct."

"Then why?" Li Heng continued to ask.

"Why do you think? Of course, it is because I believe you do not have this ability, or perhaps I do not believe you can resist the temptation of that Gong Dian."

Di Youyou sighed, then said nothing more and silently led the way.

As Li Heng walked, he observed the changes in the surrounding environment. He was moving downstream along the Time-Space Mother River, getting closer and closer to a future that was even further in the future, while at the same time heading into deeper levels of the Great Void. It seemed that this mysterious Gong Dian, like the Great Void hub from before, was located in a deeper layer of the Void.

The journey was silent.

But fortunately, no trouble occurred. Di Youyou actually led Li Heng to the destination quite honestly. This was a deeper layer of the Void, extremely hidden, a place of the nether, and within it stood an ancient Gong Dian.

"This is the Gong Dian I spoke of. Do you dare to enter?"

Di Youyou asked calmly.

"Since I am here to destroy this Gong Dian, why would I need to go inside? Entering rashly would be suicide, wouldn't it? Who knows what ambushes are inside," Li Heng said.

"You can only destroy this Gong Dian by entering. What you see is merely the appearance of this Gong Dian, a reflection in the water. Only by entering the Gong Dian can you see the True Reality of this Gong Dian."

Di Youyou explained.

"Since it is a reflection in the water, it means there exists some kind of Causal connection, and one can attack the True Reality of this Gong Dian through this connection," Li Heng had a different understanding of this.

Di Youyou was speechless, not knowing what to say.

Admittedly, what this Li Heng said did indeed make some sense.

But in her view, Li Heng's statement was like an ordinary person hitting the moon in the water, trying to destroy the moon in the sky by this method. When one could clearly go to the moon to destroy it, why insist on playing with Causal arts to destroy it? Wasn't that going in the opposite direction of one's goal?

"Do you think this method is inefficient?"

Li Heng said with a half-smile.

"It's not that it's inefficient; it's completely ineffective."

Di Youyou said frankly.

This was simply delusional.

"Then let's try it and see."

Li Heng could not be bothered to say more nonsense. With a thought, he utilized his status as a Reincarnation Dao Lord, used Reincarnation as a medium, and mobilized the vast Great Void Power, transforming it into a terrifying Causal means to begin attacking this mysterious Gong Dian.

Naturally, he would not completely dismantle this Gong Dian; after all, this was a mysterious object that could involve the end of the Time-Space Mother River. It was just that it had to be neutralized first.

However, the subsequent situation was indeed as Di Youyou had said: it was completely ineffective. Even if Li Heng mobilized more Great Void Power, it had no effect on this Gong Dian; it even felt like it was all being absorbed, like a clay ox entering the sea.

Li Heng shook his head with a sigh.

"Great Void Power, you are too embarrassing. You were so powerful not long ago, how come you can't even handle this small matter now? Don't tell me you've been downgraded in a version update."

He was scolding the locust tree to reprimand the mulberry tree.

Beside him, Di Youyou listened to Li Heng's gibberish and could not help but look very helpless. "Do you think this bit of Great Void Power can really destroy this Gong Dian? Or do you think this Gong Dian cannot utilize Great Void Power?"

Her words were already very clear.

It was not that the Great Void Power was useless, but that the other side also used Great Void Power. In a sense, both sides were engaged in a civil war, and whichever side had stronger power would naturally have the upper hand.

"Fine, just stay there and be a slave or maid."

Li Heng responded nonchalantly.

His previous attack was not without gains; at the very least, he had probed the Causal Line of this mysterious Gong Dian. Extending from here along the flow of the Time-Space Mother River, it was clear that this Gong Dian indeed possessed significant secrets.

Since it was confirmed, it was time to increase the intensity.

With a thought, he mixed a lot of Source Power into these Great Void Powers and then transformed the form of the attack. Ignoring any Causal means, he directly turned it into a sea of fire covering the sky, beginning to scorch this Gong Dian, wanting to refine the "true gold" he wanted.

Inside the Gong Dian, thirty-six statues awakened in unison.

"What is going on? Why do I feel a bit hot? Is it my imagination?"

"It is not your imagination; I felt it too. But isn't this too strange? Shouldn't the interior of the Gong Dian be untainted by all calamities and immune to Causality? How did it suddenly become hot?"

The statues began to discuss among themselves.

They were all lucky ones, and also unlucky ghosts. Their respective cultivations were not the same, with huge upper and lower limits. The weakest statue only had the cultivation of an Immortal God, but the strongest was already incomparably terrifying.

Suddenly, a buzzing sound rang out inside the Gong Dian. Then, a piece of information appeared in their minds.

"Eliminate the enemy threatening the Gong Dian; reward: release from Menial Servant status, promotion to the position of Candidate Inheritor."

They were slightly startled, and then overjoyed.

Although he did not know what exactly had happened, the opportunity had arrived!

Within the internal system of the Gong Dian, they were merely Menial Servants, but now they could be promoted to candidate inheritors; in this way, he was one step closer to controlling this Gong Dian!
