Martial Ascent to Divinity

How to slay a god?

Zhou Leng had no answer.

Because a Divine Spirit is a power completely surpassing the entire world.

Even in a High-Level Civilization, Divine Spirits are not commonly seen and still possess unimaginable authority.

Previously, Crystal Sky Dust’s family was enormously wealthy in a star territory, flaunting in True King Land, but was merely a supplier to the Celestial Calamity God.

Zhou Leng turned his head and looked at the small bottle under the tree.

Held it in his hand, gently played with it.

Inside the transparent bottle, dense clouds, lightning, and thunder rumbled.

Ruin Star Bottle.

Although the information on this item couldn’t be found, based on existing info, it could easily kill an ordinary Void God, like the Mother Tree.

But when facing the Celestial Calamity God, its power might still fall short.

The bad news is, only by weakening the Celestial Calamity God to the utmost and then using the Ruin Star Bottle, can victory be assured.

The good news is, weakening the Celestial Calamity God is ten thousand times easier than slaying a god.

But a trillion times the difficulty and a trillion times the difficulty, practically speaking, makes little difference.

He took out the Star-slaying Sword, gently stroking it.

The original Star-slaying Sword wasn’t very useful, but after absorbing a sword aura from the Ancient River Sect relic, it was a different story.

The Star-slaying Sword inherently contained one of the Ancient River Sect’s strongest swordsmanships.

"Star-slaying Nineteen Swords"

Zhou Leng gripped the Star-slaying Sword, focused his mind, and in an instant, his consciousness entered a pitch-black void.

In the void, a giant mountain wall hovered, carved with three-dimensional golden Divine Texts.

The Divine Texts rotated slowly.

Below the stone wall with Divine Texts stood a Martial Shadow Wall, depicting the process of a faceless man practicing the Star-slaying Nineteen Swords.

Zhou Leng had long cultivated the "Zhou Heavenly Star Track Sword" to Divine Communication, mastered basic swordsmanship to the utmost, and had the foundation to learn this sect’s core sword technique.

Li Shenkong was undoubtedly a prodigy, but even he trained for nearly twenty years since youth and truly mastered only the first six swords.

The first six swords are Grandmaster swordsmanship.

The middle six swords are Martial Saint swordsmanship.

The last six swords are Void God swordsmanship.

Zhou Leng slowly learned.

The Star-slaying Nineteen Swords are profound and vast, first translating as much as possible, then repeatedly watching the martial shadow practice on it.

Finally, he focused only on the first move, watching it repeatedly for 12 hours a day, memorizing every detail of the move.

Then he rose, holding the Star-slaying Sword, repeatedly practicing the first move, "Fallen Star from Beyond".

The Star-slaying Swordsmanship indeed stood apart, the power it called upon far exceeded ordinary swordsmanship.

With Zhou Leng’s current body, he could use any other swordsmanship for three days and nights without rest.

But this first move "Fallen Star from Beyond", after practicing for only six hours, he felt utterly exhausted, having to stop and rest.

During his rest, he activated the World Instrument, contacted the Little Elf Teacher, and entered the Divine Literature Academy.

"Hello, Teacher."

"Mm." The Little Elf nodded. Though serious on the surface, she was actually very satisfied with this student.

After all these years, only this student had any hope of passing the Divine Text Kindergarten exam.

Zhou Leng first asked about some Divine Text knowledge, then finally wrote out the complete Divine Text of the Celestial Calamity God’s "Pinnacle of Aurora".

As soon as this Divine Text appeared, a peculiar pressure spread.

The Little Elf suddenly waved her hand, and the Divine Text dissipated.

"Are you courting death?"

"Huh?"

"Gods are omniscient and omnipotent. If this text exists for over a second, it will convey information to its true form, and before long, its true form will know everything that happens here. Including you, including me."

"Amazing, isn’t it?"

"Don’t measure divine spirits by mortal standards."

"Understood. By the way, Teacher, this is the full name of the Celestial Calamity God. Have you heard of this name?"

The Little Elf Teacher shook her head, "The universe is vast, unimaginable, even in the same Celestial Region, one might not recognize this name, let alone since we probably are in different Celestial Regions."

"The Celestial Calamity God has already descended upon the Ten Realms, can you explain from the perspective of Divine Text comprehension, how to deal with such a divine spirit’s avatar?" Zhou Leng looked at the Little Elf.

The Little Elf hesitated for several seconds, and slowly said, "Why don’t you write a Divine Text essay first."

"Alright."

Zhou Leng immediately wrote a five-hundred-word Divine Text essay.

But its information volume equaled that of fifty thousand human words.

It took an entire day and night.

In this Divine Text essay, he replaced the pinnacle of aurora with "he", detailing everything about the Celestial Calamity God, including previous encounters.

Also including the Ruin Star Bottle and the Star-slaying Sword, there was no need to hide anything at this point.

"Quite a collection of treasures," the Little Elf commented after reading.

"Just lucky," Zhou Leng replied.

The Little Elf thought for a moment and said, "Now, I will use your essay as an example for reading comprehension instruction."

"Divine spirits are hard to defeat, so you must prepare in two ways. First, naturally, prepare to risk your life, enhance your cultivation, and gather all the powers of the world..."

"Secondly, Divine Spirits like to say, problems cannot be solved at the level where they exist, only at a higher level can they be completely resolved. So, aim to score full marks in the kindergarten retest, then use this identity to threaten the Celestial Calamity God or deceive him..."

"Of course, there is another preparation, though I don’t recommend it. For instance, collecting information about the Celestial Calamity God, trying to send it to higher planes, as a last message..."

"Furthermore, actively seek external aid, not just Demon Spirit Masters, but also the Ancient River Sect relics. As long as such relics exist, they must form significant karma, I will teach you some methods here..."

"In my experience, the Ancient River Sect must have left means for slaughtering the Celestial Calamity God. This kind of Divine Spirit avatar, dominating in ordinary worlds, but in the Ancient River Sect, it’s merely a stronger Void God..."

"Remember, the Ancient River Sect is humanity’s last hope!" The Little Elf’s expression was grave.

Zhou Leng gently nodded, the Little Elf Teacher’s words echoed repeatedly in his mind.

The Ancient River Sect is the last hope.

"Of course, take advantage of the Demon Spirit World and Steel Dwarves to knock... ’borrow’ some resources, to counter the Celestial Calamity God."

"By the way... listen carefully to what follows..."

The Little Elf stared at Zhou Leng.

Zhou Leng focused entirely and started the World Instrument recording.

"The Ascension Divinity Ladder is also one of your greatest aids in defeating the Celestial Calamity God. I even suspect that the mysterious descent of the small Ten Realms with the Ascension Divinity Ladder is at least partly related to the Celestial Calamity God. Use the Ascension Divinity Ladder wisely. Visit places in the final battleground, such as the Bone Hill Range, Hill of Death, Divine Manifestation Site..., and the Icy Sea of the Beastman Continent, and the Antarctic Island..."

In one breath, the Little Elf listed twelve locations.

Zhou Leng noted them all down, transferring them to the Demon Brain.

After finishing the conversation with the Little Elf, Zhou Leng thanked her, heading directly for the first level of Demon Purgatory, the Endless Battlefield.

The Endless Battlefield was extremely dangerous before, two lords were severely injured the moment the Celestial Calamity God manifested, scaring away many demigods.

However, this doesn’t mean the Endless Battlefield is not dangerous, it’s just different in danger.

What if the Celestial Calamity God is in the Endless Battlefield?

However, since the Little Elf Teacher pointed it out at her own risk, Zhou Leng couldn’t play the ostrich.
