Chapter 819

In the Cultivation Tower of Iceflame Mansion, Gu Ding took out Labudaron's Heart of God.

Although the golden heart was no longer beating and its color had dimmed, Gu Ding could still vaguely feel the terrifying energy contained within it.

As the commander of the Eighth Army of the Holy Light Knights, Labudaron had second-rank Heavenly God cultivation and combat effectiveness as high as a fifth-rank Heavenly God. As the source of his energy, his Heart of God naturally contained a lot of energy.

"A Heavenly God level Heart of God should be enough for me to break through to True God level."

After adjusting his breathing and adjusting himself to his best condition, Gu Ding opened his eyes again and looked expectantly at the golden heart in his hand.

"Devouring Heaven and Earth!"

As soon as the Devouring Heaven and Earth divine power was unleashed, a crazy swallowing force came out of Gu Ding's body. The golden heart in Gu Ding's palm turned into a golden trickle and flowed into his body.

As the energy flowed in, the Devouring Heaven and Earth divine power began to absorb the golden energy from the Heart of God and output black energy to Gu Ding.

Gu Ding began to use this huge energy to break through the shackles of his cultivation.

He immersed his mind into his soul space.

When he was at God level, every time he broke through to a higher level, a door would appear here. It had appeared from iron-level to gold-level.

When he was a half-step True God, although there would still be obstacles every time he broke through, it was much better than when he was at God level. However, from half-step True God to True God level, Gu Ding could clearly feel that there was a bigger obstacle in his body, but he still did not know what it was.

As the energy from the Heart of God flowed in, the Devouring Heaven and Earth divine power fed back more and more energy. Gu Ding controlled the direction of the energy in his body, circulating it wildly.

The energy in Gu Ding's body became more and more abundant, and he kept the energy circulating. After an unknown amount of time, he felt that his whole body was in a state of overflowing energy, and his whole body was about to explode from the energy, but he still did not stop.

"Come out!" In the soul space, Gu Ding's consciousness shouted.

As if sensing Gu Ding's persistence, the ground in Gu Ding's soul space began to slowly liquefy, and Gu Ding's consciousness slowly sank.

"This is …" Gu Ding was a little surprised, but he did not resist the sinking. Instead, he went with the flow because he could feel that the opportunity for his breakthrough had something to do with the changes in his soul space.

As his consciousness went deeper, the soul space became darker and darker.

It felt like a person diving into the deep sea. At first, there was still some light, but slowly, Gu Ding's consciousness began to sink into complete darkness.

This feeling was very strange because the consciousness did not have eyes. The way the consciousness perceived was completely different from the eyes, so the darkness of the environment had no effect on the consciousness according to common sense.

However, what Gu Ding's consciousness sensed now was darkness. This darkness was not the feeling of his consciousness being isolated or shielded by something. Gu Ding's consciousness could still extend in all directions, but all he could feel were black blind spots.

This change made Gu Ding feel slightly uneasy. However, he had a vague feeling that if he gave up this time, it would be very difficult for him to break through to true god-level again.

With this feeling, Gu Ding immediately abandoned all distracting thoughts and calmly faced the sinking of his consciousness. Time passed slowly. Gu Ding did not know if a year, two years, a thousand years, or ten thousand years had passed.

Suddenly, Gu Ding noticed a faint light coming from somewhere not far below his feet.

"There's light over there!" Gu Ding's consciousness immediately rushed in that direction.

However, after entering the area, Gu Ding was a little stunned.

"This is …"

The light was coming from a small graveyard.

A huge coffin slowly floated in the void. Countless runes lingered on the surface of the golden coffin, like shackles sealing the coffin layer by layer.

"Why is there a coffin in my soul space?" Gu Ding was very surprised, but no one could give him an answer to this question.

After hesitating for a moment, Gu Ding decided to open the coffin because he had a vague feeling that whether he could break through to true god-level or not was closely related to this coffin.

"Whatever, let's open it first!"

Once he had made up his mind, Gu Ding immediately displayed his strongest martial arts, Super Spank, and blasted it toward the coffin.

In the soul space, there was no physical limit, and there was a constant supply of energy in his body. Gu Ding did not have any qualms about using Super Spank like crazy.

Once, twice, thrice …

The talismans on the coffin began to crack under the force of Super Spank's attack.

After an unknown amount of time, Gu Ding felt that he had performed Super Spank no less than ten thousand times before the last rune on the coffin finally disappeared after a few flashes.

Gu Ding was about to open the coffin lid when he noticed that there was a crack on the surface of the coffin. Then, the crack began to spread rapidly in all directions. The originally intact coffin instantly became full of cracks.

"Oh no, did I use too much force just now and accidentally break the coffin?" Gu Ding did not know what to do at that moment.

However, at that moment, the entire golden coffin completely disintegrated and turned into specks of golden light that dissipated into the void.

Gu Ding then saw that what was hidden inside the coffin was a chubby little baby boy.

"A child?" Gu Ding was stunned. After carefully examining it, Gu Ding realized, "No, this little guy isn't human. It's a human Soul. This baby's appearance is exactly the same as when a Soul first condensed when he became a true god-level. Could it be that he's my Soul? "

At that moment, the little baby boy opened his eyes. He saw Gu Ding at first glance and giggled at Gu Ding.

Gu Ding's consciousness slowly swam over and was about to pick him up. However, as soon as his palm touched the baby boy, his entire consciousness was sucked in.

The next moment, Gu Ding's consciousness looked down and saw his baby-like hands.

"This little baby boy really is my Soul!" Gu Ding was finally sure.

"But don't Souls usually condense on their own? Why is there a ready-made one in my soul space? "Gu Ding could not understand.

Condensing a Soul meant that a person's life form had undergone a qualitative change.

This was because before condensing a Soul, a person's soul belonged to an ordinary spirit body. After death, the spirit body would be weak and fragile. Because of this, when entering reincarnation, the spirit body could only carry a limited amount of information. Therefore, ordinary people would lose their memories of their previous lives when they reincarnated.

Souls were different. Souls were formed after the spirit body evolved and were stronger and more resilient. As long as one's Soul was not damaged when they died, even if they entered reincarnation, they could retain all their memories.

Gu Ding's situation was rather strange because a Soul generally needed a strong Soul Energy to support it and then slowly condense it. However, Gu Ding's body had a Soul directly sealed in it, and it was perfectly compatible with his consciousness. This inevitably made Gu Ding a little puzzled.

However, after a while, he put his doubts aside because the completion of the Soul's condensation meant that he was halfway to becoming a true god-level. He still needed to build a new energy cycle in his body and then condense the God Position into a Godhead.

Gu Ding and Neptune had discussed the new energy cycle a long time ago.

According to Neptune's suggestion, Gu Ding chose the energy cycle cultivation method that Lord God Caesar used when he was a Heavenly God — Emperor Sutra.

The reason why he chose this cultivation method was that it was a pair with the Emperor Sutra, and it did not conflict with his original cultivation path.

Most importantly, in Gu Ding's inherited memory, Caesar had emphasized that the Emperor Sutra was the foundation for him to look down on other Lords. He could only pass it on to his inheritors and was not allowed to pass it on to others.

In addition, there were no better Heavenly God cultivation methods in Neptune's database. Therefore, this cultivation method became Gu Ding's best choice.

Following the records of the Emperor Sutra in his memory, Gu Ding began to build the first cycle in his body.

The true god-level energy cycle was much more complicated than the previous cycles. It took Gu Ding more than half an hour to complete the first cycle and successfully build the cycle.

As the energy continued to flow in, Gu Ding began to communicate with the God Position in his body.

The golden God Position floated in the soul space, and Gu Ding guided the energy in his body to constantly surge toward the God Position. In the soul space, it suddenly looked like a pile of black flames burning under the golden token.

As the energy continued to flow in, the golden God Position began to slowly melt, like metal being burned into liquid by fire. However, as the black God Source continued to surge, the golden liquid slowly became smaller. Not only that, but even its color was changing.

After a long time, the metal liquid that was the size of a pinky finally stopped shrinking and began to change its shape. Like a crystal, a hundred and eight sharp water caltrops extended out, emitting a colorful luster, and then slowly solidified.

This solidification process continued for a long time until it completely stopped. Finally, the black God Source below automatically retreated.

At this point, the Godhead condensed and took shape. Gu Ding knew that he had really become a True God.

Looking at his Godhead that had one hundred and eight water caltrops and was constantly shining with a colorful luster, Gu Ding was a little stunned.

"Didn't Neptune say that Godheads are divided into four grades? The lowest is grade four, with nine water caltrops that are black iron in color. The highest is grade one, with thirty-six water caltrops that are golden in color. Why doesn't my Godhead match the characteristics he said at all? "

"Never mind, I'll consolidate it first. I'll ask Neptune when I get out later." Gu Ding was puzzled and once again entered the state of cultivation.
