Chapter 164: Isn't That Just Creating a Weakness for Yourself!? (Please Follow and Read)

Lu Zheng had an obsession with Super Armor skills that increased damage immunity.

Always a few percent, or a few point something percent — he just wanted to see whether it could actually be pushed to a 100% Absolute Super Armor state! 【Skill: Abomination Demon Body (Passive)】

【Effect: Immune to single-hit damage below 100 billion points; physical damage reduced by 10%, energy damage reduced by 10%; after death, absorbing the power of abomination can reconstitute the Abomination Demon Body and be reborn within the Abyss Demon Realm】

Seeing the damage reduction portion at the beginning, Lu Zheng thought it was quite reasonable.

Although directly immunizing 100 billion points of damage was a bit overbearing, the overall damage reduction — only 10% for both physical and energy damage — was very ordinary.

But upon seeing the final clause, Lu Zheng was completely stunned.

No restrictions, infinite rebirth!?

As long as there was still power of abomination, one could endlessly die and be reborn again — rebirth was only a matter of time, with no limit on the number of times! Lu Zheng was a bit dazed for a moment.

Although he had already obtained some information about the infinite rebirth of the Nine Great Demon Kings of the Abyss from the inherited memories provided by the Death God King, he was still somewhat surprised after personally obtaining this skill.

At the same time, he also felt a hint of worry.

Everything came with a price — how could the benefit of unlimited rebirth and eternal immortality come without a cost? Lu Zheng saw the final sentence.

'Be reborn within the Abyss Demon Realm'

Clearly, once reborn, one might be thoroughly bound to the Abyss Demon Realm.

Lu Zheng snapped out of it and felt he might be overthinking things.

After all, he had so many resurrection skills — would he really miss this one?!

Besides, with the way his Super Armor was stacking, could he even let himself die!? After this round of enhancement, he already possessed 99.55% physical damage immunity and 99.25% spell damage immunity.

Looking at the Abomination Demon King's clone's other skills, they were all decent enough.

【Evil God: Abomination Demon King (Projection)】

【Level: LV. 899 (Main God)】

【HP: 1.5 trillion/1.5 trillion】

【Mana: 200 billion/200 billion】

【Strength: 28 million】

【Agility: 24.5 million】

【Spirit: 27.5 million】

【Constitution: 26 million】

【Skills: Hammer of Abomination, Abomination Demon Spirit, Soul-Seizing Bite, Demon Abyss Eruption, Demon King Projection, Mana Clash, Dark Fury, Demon King's Shield, Abomination Demon Body (Passive)】

Among these skills, the ones that caught Lu Zheng's eye, aside from that passive Super Armor skill, were only Mana Clash.

【Skill: Mana Clash】

【Effect: When one's own mana is no less than 100 billion points, consume at minimum half of one's own mana to clash against an equal amount of the target's mana】

This was similar to the Death God King's 'Blossoming of the Other Shore Flower' skill, but the latter was target-based, halving the opponent's mana, while the former was self-based, with no limit on the total amount of target mana that could be offset.

If one's own mana exceeded twice the opponent's, then one could completely empty their mana in one go.

From a strategic perspective, in one-on-one combat at the same level, 'Mana Clash' was clearly more effective.

Blossoming of the Other Shore Flower was suited for situations where the enemy was stronger and one was weaker, directly halving the target's mana at minimal cost.

Of course, Lu Zheng now had both skills.

He could first use Blossoming of the Other Shore Flower to eliminate half the target's mana, then use 'Mana Clash' to drain their mana completely.

But generally speaking, with numerous avatars, the two skills' effects were actually the same.

After mastering this skill, Lu Zheng directly had the ten thousand avatars he had long since summoned and ambushed around the area all release the 'Blossoming of the Other Shore Flower' skill simultaneously, completely draining this Abomination Demon King projection's mana.

Then he cast a Destruction Divine Curse on it. Lu Zheng simply wanted to test how much damage the 'Destruction Divine Curse' combined with 'True Blessing' would produce.

Just now, the avatars had used the 'Blossoming of the Other Shore Flower' skill to empty this Demon King projection's mana, while simultaneously causing nearly 400 billion points of HP reduction.

And at this moment, the Destruction Divine Curse triggered.

A Destruction Divine Curse created by a mere 10 billion mana, under the True Blessing effect of a skill released with 100 billion points of mana, actually dealt collateral damage via the power of destruction as high as 800 billion! This kick-them-while-they're-down effect was truly excellent.

The Abomination Demon King projection's 1.5 trillion HP had now dropped to 300 billion in the blink of an eye.

Having tested the effect, Lu Zheng no longer wasted time — he directly released Taotie and had it swallow the entire Abomination Demon King projection alive.

Having lost its mana, the Abomination Demon King projection had no power to resist. It was torn into several pieces by Taotie and directly devoured, along with its Main God-level divine core.

Even if it was just a projection, as long as it was at the divine level, it still possessed a divine core.

Projections and avatars were two different concepts.

Seeing that Taotie, having devoured the Abomination Demon King projection, had risen to level 787, Lu Zheng struck while the iron was hot — he gave it the two Main God-level divine cores obtained earlier in the Abyss Demon Realm for it to devour.

Experience points surged! The next moment, it stepped into the Main God level, reaching level 805.

A Main God-level divine pet!

Back then, a divine pet at only demi-god level perfection could match a Mid God in combat power.

Upon reaching the Lower God level, it could contend with an Upper God.

Upon reaching the Mid God level, it was only slightly weaker than a Main God.

Upon reaching the Upper God level, a Main God could be disregarded entirely, though it still fell somewhat short of a God King.

Now, the divine pet's level had officially reached the Main God tier.

A God King no longer seemed worth worrying about! Lu Zheng possessed a Death God King avatar, so a quick comparison made it clear.

The just-reached level 805 Taotie had a full 45 trillion HP and 20.5 trillion mana; whereas the level 949 Death God King had only 54.9 trillion HP and a mere 14.9 trillion mana!

Taotie only needed to activate its 'Dharma Avatar Heaven and Earth' skill to completely crush the Death God King across all attributes.

A God King-level divine pet also provided a tremendous amount of attribute feedback.

Lu Zheng himself received a massive enhancement along with it.

Glancing at the Gate of the Abyss passage, Lu Zheng had Taotie act directly — one punch shattered it, and it vanished in the blink of an eye.

That is the Gate of the Abyss reinforced with God‑king‑level "Divine Nation Power"; now that Taotie possesses God‑king‑level combat power, it can eliminate that kind of thing.

At that moment, Lu Zheng finally looked at his assessment mission prompt.

【Ding! You have completed the eighth task of the Destruction of the God‑King Throne Inheritance assessment: Destroy! Divine Nation Plane!】

【Reward: Destruction affinity +20%; Divine Skill: Divine Nation Plane】

【Current destruction affinity: 230%】

【Skill: Divine Nation Plane】

【Effect: Whenever you destroy a Divine Nation Plane, you can create a new Divine Nation Plane】

That really is a simple description.

Lu Zheng couldn't help but furrow his brows.

Having one or several extra Divine Nation Planes—what good does that serve?

A ruse? Or to house summoned beasts!?

Divine Nation Planes are absolutely linked to the deities themselves; once destroyed, the deity will also be affected.

Having a few more Divine Nation Planes—doesn't that just create a flaw for oneself!? Thanks for the support! (End of chapter)
