Human Clan Defender

Chapter 1057 - 125-126: You Lost, The Residual Clone (Two-in-One)

However, whether it can truly disregard cultivators at the Ninth Layer of the God Realm remains to be seen.

Even so.

After being nurtured by the Rule Divine Stone, it is equivalent to taking an extra half-step in the Seventh Layer of Cave Heaven Realm.

Upon understanding the intricacies, Shen Changqing’s eyes shot out bright gleams.

Good stuff!

If Divine Lord Blood enhances one’s realm cultivation, the Rule Divine Stone strengthens one’s foundational power.

The realm remains unchanged.

But the power has become much stronger.

If one could acquire a large amount of Rule Divine Stones, perhaps while in the Seventh Layer of Cave Heaven, they could directly rival the Divine King.

Unfortunately.

To this day, he still cannot fathom how Rule Divine Stones are formed.

However, Shen Changqing can be certain of one thing.

Rule Divine Stones are definitely linked to rules, but exactly how remains unknown.

Currently, although the Rule Divine Stone is still within the Dantian, he can keenly sense that the energy contained within the stone is already scarce.

In a short while.

The Rule Divine Stone is very likely to lose its effect completely.

Immediately.

Shen Changqing looked at the Sea of Consciousness.

Unfortunately, the accumulated power of faith there is also minimal.

After all, faith comes from the Qingfeng Clan, which exists outside, regardless of how the time flows within, it’s all according to the external time flow providing faith.

Within.

He also realized the gap between himself and those veteran direct disciples.

Accumulation!

Accumulation in terms of faith!

In the case of Zhongshan Kongzhou and others, the Sea of Consciousness has accumulated years of faith, and now upon entering the Divine Forge Platform, they have ample time to silently refine this faith, thereby enhancing their own foundational strength.

In comparison, his level of faith accumulation is much lesser.

"To date, my time in the Heavenly Domain has been approximately a year, with two years remaining outside, but the gap to rank seventh is considerable, and I need to advance further."

Shen Changqing fell into contemplation.

His time spent in the Heavenly Domain consumed several months, then entering the Divine Forge Platform and refining Divine Lord Blood took some time, adding up to roughly a year outside.

With two years left, advancing a rank would equate to an additional two years.

Each time one advances a rank, the flow of time increases on the original basis.

However.

Just as Shen Changqing was about to initiate the challenge, a message subtly came through.

"Someone is challenging me?"

He didn’t expect.

Before he could challenge others, someone would come to challenge him first.

Following that.

An additional message came to his mind.

"Zhongshan Peng ranked eleventh at the Divine Forge Platform initiates a challenge, you can choose to respond actively or allow your doppelganger to face the challenge."

"Note, the power of the doppelganger corresponds with your last battle at the Divine Forge Platform."

"If no response is given within a quarter of an hour, the doppelganger will face the challenge on its own!"

Doppelganger?

Based on the final battle at the Divine Forge Platform?

Shen Changqing’s expression shifted.

Strictly speaking, the Ascension Tower is also part of the Divine Forge Platform, meaning that basing it on the final battle would refer to the power with which he slew the Half-Step Divine King Tower Guardian.

Zhongshan Peng being able to ascend the Divine Forge Platform also signifies going through the Ascension Tower as a formidable figure.

Whether his doppelganger at the Divine Forge Platform can withstand the opponent is the question.

As he pondered, a quarter of an hour had already passed.

The space before him suddenly twisted.

A scene appeared before his eyes.

"Is this... the place of challenge?"

Shen Changqing was momentarily taken aback.

In the scene, he could see Zhongshan Peng’s figure and the doppelganger formed by the Divine Forge Platform.

The feeling.

It was as if watching a movie from his previous life.

He hadn’t expected the methods of the Divine Forge Platform to be this miraculous.
