Meng Lei promptly ordered, “Collect the Divinity Crystals and the Laws of Nature Origin Crystals, system!”
Whoosh!
His Wealth instantly spiked by 3.6 million Divinity Crystals!
“3.6 million Divinity Crystals? What a windfall!”
With the newly-gained 3.6 million Divinity Crystals, Meng Lei’s Wealth successfully broke through the 10 million milestone and reached an amount as high as 12.1 million Divinity Crystals, making him a rich man overnight!
“28 mid-tier demonic weapons and innumerable low-tier demonic weapons!
“And most importantly, there are actually so many Crystallized Divine Spirit Extracts in here! I’ve struck gold! I’ve struck gold big-time! Say no more, I’ll just assimilate these Crystallized Divine Spirit Extracts first!”
Boom!
Following vast amounts of Crystallized Divine Spirit Extracts entering his body, Meng Lei’s divine spirit flame began to visibly expand as though it had been doused with buckets of petroleum.
It doubled, tripled, quadrupled...
At last, after an unknown amount of time, the divine spirit flame’s expansion rate finally began to slow down. His divine spirit flame was currently as many as ten times bigger than what it had previously been.
Another look at the stats interface revealed that his divine spirit had also gone from mid-grade intermediate deity-level to pinnacle-grade intermediate deity-level. His divine spirit was only a step away from becoming a higher deity-level now!
“A limits-grade intermediate deity-level divine body and a pinnacle-grade intermediate deity-level divine spirit!”
Meng Lei slowly let out a pent-up breath and remarked, “Apart from lacking a divine core and divine incarnations, I’m already totally a pinnacle-level intermediate deity now! It’s just a shame that I still haven’t found anything that can enhance my divine body yet.”
There were also a lot of Demon God, Specter God, and Undead God dead bodies in the spatial ring. In fact, the divine power that some of them gave off could rival an intermediate deity’s.
Meng Lei devoured and absorbed them all, causing his life force to grow without end.
Yet, no matter how it grew, it simply couldn’t cross the hurdle. His divine body remained stuck at limits-grade intermediate deity-level the whole time, unable to progress any further.
Meng Lei rubbed his temples. He was rather frustrated. He muttered, “Why can’t my divine body evolve, even though I’ve already devoured this much life force?”
“This is a very normal occurrence.”
Dodola’s voice rang out. “The progression from an intermediate deity to a higher deity might seem like only a single step, but it’s no different from an insurmountable obstacle in reality. One can’t just break through it so easily.
“Otherwise, people like the Titan Spiritual God won’t be stuck as a pinnacle-level intermediate deity for so long and unable to take that critical step forward.”
“What should I do, Dodola?”
Meng Lei frowned slightly. Must he really spend 3 million Divinity Crystals on Super Enhancement?
“You can consider two ways,” Dodola said dispassionately, “Firstly, if you have enough power of divinity in your reserves, I’d suggest that you try the Divine Netherworld Phoenix’s Rise From The Ashes.”
“Rise From The Ashes?”
Meng Lei’s eyes lit up slightly.
That’s true. Why didn’t I think of using that Innate Special Ability?
“The second way is to look for treasures that can enhance your divine body, such as a Titan King’s blood essence and so on.”
Dodola cast a meaningful glance at Meng Lei and said, “I believe this shouldn’t be much of a problem for you?”
Meng Lei gave Dodola a wry smile and replied, “Ordinary treasures aren’t hard to find, but that’s not necessarily also the case when it comes to treasures of that grade.”
After carrying out so many Super Pickups, the Titan King’s blood essence droplet could be said to be the most valuable treasure that he had obtained. As for the others... They were really very mediocre.
“That’s out of my hands!”
Dodola looked relaxed as it said, “If all else fails, then just split your divine spirit and deify in advance. Your divine spirit is very strong, so splitting it should be a cinch for you.”
“Easy for you to say!”
Meng Lei shook his head. It hadn’t been easy enhancing his divine spirit to its current state. He’d rather use Super Enhancement than split his divine spirit and weaken his divine spirit.
“Just do as you deem fit, then!”
Dodola’s voice subsequently faded away.
A resigned Meng Lei could only continue to carry out pickups.
“Ding...”
“Ding...”
“Ding...”
In the time that followed, Meng Lei continuously carried out pickups. However, things didn’t go his way. The Netherworld, the Demon Realm, the Abyss, Hell, the Thunderbolt Divine Realm, the Light Divine Realm... He carried out pickups in all of them!
He gained a lot of average treasures, but he didn’t pick up anything else that could aid him in breaking through.
For a few consecutive days, Meng Lei only picked up a large amount of random, messy trash.
Of course, in the eyes of true gods, lesser deities, and even intermediate deities, what he viewed as trash were undoubtedly treasures that could enhance one’s strength instead!
“Forget it! Since I can’t pick up any, then I’d better just stop for now. It’s pointless to continue any further.”
Meng Lei finally walked out of the wrecked palace. Then, he summoned Puhaman over.
“Greetings, Master!”
Puhaman bowed respectfully.
Meng Lei asked casually, “How’s the migration progress?”
“After our hard work the last few days, we’ve already sent the first batch of Beast People into all 48 existential planes,” Puhaman replied respectfully.
Then, he added, “There are a total of 48 million Beast People with one million on each existential plane.”
“An acceptable progression rate.”
Meng Lei nodded slightly. The Beast People Empire was teeming with Beast People, after all. 48 million? That was nothing but just a drop in the ocean. However, to the 48
