The ten Pure Spirit rank-6 God's Figurine's Combat Souls had been elevated to minor dao-level. Not only that, each of them had duplicated over 10,000 Dao seals.
To Lin Huang, they were undoubtedly a group of amazing assistants.
Although they could not compare with him in terms of their abilities, they were sufficient to handle many minor dao-level powerhouses.
Lin Huang was satisfied with this boost of external strength.
However, he did not give up on his personal strength boost just yet.
He repeatedly explored the few conclusions he had explored. Very soon, he found a shortcut to the second strengthening method.
"I definitely can't cultivate Lords in my Kingdom to boost the number of the unlocked Dao seals within a short period of time. However, if time flow is accelerated by 10,000 times, I should be able to significantly shorten the cultivation time of Lords."
"Three years would be 300,000 years under 10,000 times accelerated time flow. It shouldn't be an issue to cultivate a couple of Lords."
The Great Heaven Palace could alter time flow. The most it could accelerate time flow in his Kingdom would be 10,000 times faster than the outside world.
Lin Huang thought he could use this bug to accelerate the time flow in his Kingdom by 10,000 times to cultivate Lords.
He had absorbed countless Kingdoms before. Most of them had local living beings, and there were quite a number of Heavenly Gods among them. He had converted them into a part of his Kingdom together with the other Kingdoms previously.
Three hundred years should be enough to elevate some high-rank Heavenly Gods to Lords.
He had only applied the time acceleration within the Great Heaven Palace previously, or only the Great Heaven Territory at most. It had never been applied to the entire Kingdom before.
He was looking forward to seeing the changes of some of his old friends in the gravel world 30,000 years later under the accelerated time flow.
As he sorted through his thoughts, he contacted the Great Heaven Palace directly without hesitation. He adjusted the time flow of the entire Kingdom so that it was 10,000 times faster than the outside world.
…
Lin Huang would enter the virtual realm every day for the next few days.
He already had sufficient confidence in his ability to start exploring the Abyss of the virtual realm.
At the same time, he was in a frenzy as he hunted Voids in the Abyss.
However, his targeted prey were at least supreme-rank Lords. There were even minor dao-level powerhouses.
Apart from obtaining a great deal of Origin Energy, the goal of hunting those Voids was also to obtain more Dao seals.
Although it would not unlock the number of Dao seals he could possess, it could boost the total number of Dao seals in his Kingdom. It was even faster than refining Kingdoms.
Moreover, as the Voids he hunted were of high levels, almost each one he hunted would increase the number of Dao seals in his Kingdom by 1,000.
Within a short span of one week, he had hunted hundreds of Voids.
The total number of Dao seals in his Kingdom had skyrocketed to over 300,000.
However, one day, Lin Huang suddenly realized that he could no longer refine more Dao seals.
"315,800 Dao seals… seems to be the limit. It happens to be a hundred-fold of the 3,158 Dao seals I own…" Lin Huang had previously guessed that there would be a limit to the number of Dao seals his Kingdom could refine. He had finally reached the limit. However, it was clear that the limit could be increased in tandem with the number of the Dao seals he truly possessed.
Although it came out of the blue, Lin Huang soon came to terms with the fact.
He figured that he would just stop hunting for the time being.
The Voids in the Abyss of the virtual realm might not have realized that they had unintentionally escaped death.
After Lin Huang stopped hunting, he summoned the ten God's Figurine's Combat Souls immediately and got Eternity Fire to strengthen them once again.
The God's Figurine's Combat Souls that had only duplicated over 10,000 Dao seals before had the number of Dao seals in their bodies increased to some 30,000.
Their combat ability increased significantly again.
Later on, Lin Huang finally settled down.
He only did one thing every day when he entered the virtual realm, which was to refine the Origin Energy fragments coming from the Nirvana Trees.
When he returned to the material realm, he would put aside his cultivation completely.
He would travel with his mind with his eyes shut most of the time.
His Divine Telekinesis turned into clones, wandering through all the planets in the entire great world.
This included those planets in his Kingdom; observing the changes in the Kingdom.
Sometimes, he would spare some time to give cultivation pointers to Lin Xin and the rest, his imperial monsters and Sword Servants.
Time flew by, and close to three years had passed.
The current Sword Alliance, including the branch in the human world, held a steady status among the grade-7 organizations.
It was not only active within the God Territory, but the three Saints and the seven sects in the human world also collaborated with the Sword Alliance.
The Sword Alliance's headquarters in the God Territory had tens of millions of members now.
Meanwhile, the branch in the human world had surpassed eight million members.
Although Lin Huang did not fight even once throughout the three years, more than one of the Sword Servants in the Sword Alliance had fought before.
A hot discussion would start every time a Sword Servant fought.
Not only the God Territory and the human world in the great world, almost all the realms found out that the Sword Alliance possessed at least ten lord-level powerhouses.
Lin Huang, the mysterious Sword Alliance master, had become an unfathomable existence to the people.
Lin Huang, who had clones all over the place, naturally knew of these matters very well.
Throughout these three years, everything that happened in the entire great world, no matter big or small, could not escape his notice.
In reality, the Heavenly Net never managed to find news of Xue Luo throughout these three years.
Lin Huang had tens of thousands of clones who investigated the matter for three years.
The final investigation revealed that there was indeed a small clan called the Xue family in the previous era in the God Territory. However, Lin Huang checked through all of the information he could find. It was proven that the Xue family was not the one he was looking for. It had nothing to do with Xue Luo at all.
Not only the God Territory, Lin Huang had even looked through all the regions in the great world, including the human world, Celestial Palace, Buddhist Land, dragon world and more. He did not manage to find anything.
It felt as if Xue Luo had never existed, nor was there ever a Xue family.
Lin Huang did not find Xue Luo, but he did not have to spend much effort finding information about her ex-husband according to the teleportation coordinates and based on the time spent in the gravel world and the great world.
That man called himself a Master God in the great world. He had many believers.
However, in reality, he was merely getting by in mediocre grade-5 organization in the God Territory. He was just a regular member. Meanwhile, his combat strength stopped at ninth-rank true god-level. He had not improved in years.
On a night when snow scattered across the sky, Lin Huang's clone barred his path.
The man with a head full of silver hair had his guard up as he looked at Lin huang.
His hair color seemed to have turned silver white permanently from the influence of Xue Luo's Divine Fire. However, he still looked cool and handsome.
"Do you still remember Xue Ling-er?" Lin Huang stretched his hand out and caught the soft snow that was like sand before him as he asked coldly.
The man quivered slightly, but then denied instantly, "You got the wrong person. I've no idea who this Xue Ling-er you're talking about is."
"Really?" Lin Huang smirked.
At the moment, the silver-haired man's eyes gradually looked empty. "Xue Ling-er was a woman that I met in the gravel world. I knew that she was a Protoss. I approached her on purpose, deceived her to win her trust, and obtained her Divine Fire…"
His eyes were focused again a moment later. "What did you do to me?"
"I merely let you recall your past." Lin Huang's tone was calm, but his expression had turned cold.
"Since I've confirmed that it's you, I'll take the thing that you owe Xue Luo on her behalf."
As soon as Lin Huang was done speaking, the silver-haired man knelt on the ground. His silver hair was turning black quickly at a speed that was visible to the naked eye, but his vitality was fading gradually.
"You owe her a life and a Divine Fire, so I'll take your life and Divine Fire." Lin Huang did not even look at the kneeling corpse. He held the white Divine Fire at the tip of his finger, covering it with a layer of Odyl and then placed it in a box. He put away the box in his space storage.
He lifted his head and looked up at the sky. Watching the soft snow falling from the sky, he muttered softly, "I've avenged you, Xue Luo…"
