Chapter 115: Whether God or Demon, They're Just My Pets!

The aura on Lu Zheng's body was already very powerful.

Wu Tuohai had never underestimated Lu Zheng's own combat power.

But obviously, a summoner could not possibly be stronger than his divine pets, right? Right now they were going to subdue a true god, a LV. 530 true deity!

At a time like this, for a summoner like you to charge forward, isn't that a bit rash? Lu Zheng knew what Wu Tuohai was worried about, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, isn't the Kui Ox watching from the side? With the Kui Ox's current strength, it can instantly kill that Lower God. You don't need to worry about any danger."

Hearing Lu Zheng say the matter of instantly killing a Lower God so casually, Wu Tuohai couldn't help but twitch his face.

He had indeed known before that Lu Zheng possessed a divine pet capable of subduing a Lower God, but that one seemed to have been left behind in the Abyss Demon Realm.

The Kui Ox divine pet before him was indeed very strong, but after all, it had never fought against a true god, so Wu Tuohai was not completely at ease.

However, at this moment, all the say was in Lu Zheng's hands.

He was merely an old senior brought along by Lu Zheng, incidentally being granted a divine throne.

Facing such a confident junior, he could only do as told.

The Divine Thunder Prison of Punishment for Sins was opened, and a Lower Evil God of the Flame Demon race rushed out rapidly from within.

This was one Lu Zheng had specially selected.

Originally, he had planned to wait until obtaining the heart of that Flame Demon Lower God puppet from the Abyss Demon Realm before letting his own Flame Demon summon beast advance to the divine pet level.

But now that he could obtain it directly, he would no longer dawdle.

Obtaining a divine pet one step earlier meant having one more portion of strength.

The moment this Flame Demon appeared, it immediately let out a furious roar.

After being imprisoned for so many years, its heart was naturally extremely violent.

Upon breaking free, it immediately charged toward the nearest person, Lu Zheng.

However, in the next moment, over a dozen chains flickering with thunder fell from the sky, directly binding its four limbs and head, with two more chains wrapping around its waist.

Terrifying thunder power was released, and this demon let out a painful howl.

The health bar above its head began to decrease rapidly! Lu Zheng possessed the 'Domain of the Thunder Marsh,' and in this environment, with the help of the Kui Ox's magic power, the thunder chains created were extremely powerful.

Even a Mid God could be bound by them for a period of time.

As for a mere Lower God, it was naturally impossible to break free at all! Violent energy raged about, and Wu Tuohai looked at the Lower True God-level evil demon that didn't even have the ability to resist under Lu Zheng's hand, revealing an expression of shock.

Although he was about to inherit the divine throne of a High God, at this moment he was still only a demigod who had been forcibly promoted.

Facing power of this level, he truly felt a kind of fear from the depths of his soul!

Before a high-level life form, a low-level individual was like an ant.

Very soon, this Flame Demon's health was reduced to a sliver.

"Draw your sword!"

Lu Zheng spoke.

Wu Tuohai woke up as if from a dream, hurriedly picked up the Punishment Divine Sword, and with one stroke severed this Flame Demon's head.

Actually, with Wu Tuohai's current strength, with the help of this High Divine Artifact, there was also a certain probability that he alone could kill such a Lower God.

But he himself did not have such an awareness, and thus could not achieve this step.

It didn't matter.

This was not important.

In any case, Lu Zheng was providing him with a safety net the whole way, letting him smoothly and directly inherit the divine throne of a High God, and that was enough.

The experience points from slaying a true god were enormous.

The experience points from one true god were enough to let the over-level-200 Qiongqi rise over twenty levels in a row; although a level-400 demigod required a lot of experience points to level up, one true god still let Wu Tuohai directly rise eleven levels.

Reaching level 497.

Inside, there were still thirteen Lower True Gods and one Mid God remaining, absolutely enough for Wu Tuohai to advance.

After all, after slaying a true god, apart from the experience points gained, one could also obtain a divine core, which was of enormous help to a professional who wanted to condense their own divine core.

Lu Zheng first took out this demon's demon heart, brought it out, and gave it to his own Flame Demon summon beast to devour. After a moment, this Flame Demon's aura underwent a tremendous change.

Lu Zheng looked at its basic attributes, and sure enough, it had become a one-star legendary divine pet in quality!

Judging from its current state, if he wanted to advance it to two stars, he would need at least the heart of a Mid God-level Flame Demon.

For now, it was already usable.

Once the matter of inheriting the divine throne was finished, he would help this fellow level up as quickly as possible, then let it enter the Abyss Demon Realm to gather more monsters for him and help other summon beasts level up.

Lu Zheng had a premonition.

Having a divine-quality Flame Demon as an inside agent would absolutely bring him enormous surprises.

Looking at the transformed demon before his eyes, Wu Tuohai somewhat doubted whether he was seeing things.

"How do you also keep a demon?"

Lu Zheng asked back in surprise:

"Who says you can't keep a demon as a pet? Whether god or demon, they are all just my summon beasts!"

Hearing these words, Wu Tuohai once again felt as if he had taken a blow, and said with a bitter smile:

"I think I understand why you don't inherit a divine throne. So-called gods, in your eyes, are nothing more than this!"

Lu Zheng smiled upon hearing this, but said nothing.

After all, Wu Tuohai was about to become a god, so saying something too harsh wouldn't be good either.

Putting away the still-very-low-level Flame Demon, Lu Zheng spoke:

"Let's continue!"

Wu Tuohai was an old hand after all, and quickly calmed his emotions, beginning to release the second true god-level evil demon.

Same routine — Wu Tuohai finished off the target with a final sword strike.

Unsurprisingly, his level rose to 500 and then stagnated, with the experience point overflow reaching 634.95 percent.

"How much experience do you think is enough for you to condense a divine stature?"

Lu Zheng asked.

Wu Tuohai sensed for a moment and gave a number.

Five thousand percent or more would be safer!

Lu Zheng nodded at the words and began to continue helping him slay True Gods.

He then killed six more Lower God‑ranked evil demons in succession, finally raising the experience to over five thousand four hundred percent.

"I'll start condensing my divine stature now!"

Wu Tuohai is only trying to condense the divine stature of a Lower God; likewise it is a Lower God's divine stature. Xue Feihua completed the condensation merely by using fragments of divine stature, and Wu Tuohai, who already possesses several complete divine statures, cannot fail.

After a little over an hour, the aura around him changed, and his level broke through five hundred.

Lu Zheng could not see the exact level.

After all, once he surpassed this two‑hundred‑level practitioner by three hundred levels, he could no longer see it.

But judging from the aura, it should be five hundred plus a fraction.

Unlike Xue Feihua, who directly inherited a divine seat by condensing a divine stature and thus gained the 550‑level rank that a divine seat confers.

Wu Tuohai's breakthrough was natural, so he is only just over five hundred.

But at least he has already metamorphosed into a god; his life's essence has changed, and inheriting a divine seat will now be smoother.

Now only the final step remains: eradicate all Evil Gods!

Among them is also a Mid God.
