Chapter 380: Eating the Law Threads Like Noodles, One After Another
In the time that followed, Lu Sheng completely let loose and did something that would scare all the cultivators in the universe so much that they wet their pants.
He squatted in front of the wall of law threads and began to "eat" these deadly things one by one.
The actions were simple and brutal.
Reach out and grab the thread.
The silk thread transformed into a blade of light, slicing into the flesh.
The Devouring Furnace forcefully pulled the light blade into the meridian along the wound.
His meridians were shattered, and he was in excruciating pain.
The Devouring Furnace forcibly refined it, and the dragon runes repaired its body.
Then, switch hands and grab the next one.
Lu Sheng completely treated this as a self-torturing assembly line operation.
"The first one."
"Hiss... the second one. This one's strong."
"The third one. Damn it, it almost cut my lung."
He was trembling with pain as he mumbled numbers to himself.
Although these threads of law are of extremely high quality, in the face of an unreasonable cheat like the Devouring Heaven Furnace, once they are pulled into the body, there is only one fate: they will be crushed into dust and become nutrients for the seeds of small worlds.
On the first day, Lu Sheng ate forty-seven pieces.
The cost was extremely high. His left hand was severed twice at the root, and his right hand was severed once. A transparent hole was pierced through his chest by a light blade, and even his heart was slightly ruptured.
Not a single black and gold dragon scale on his body was intact; he looked as if he had been pulled out of a pool of blood.
But the seed of that little world within his dantian grew brighter and brighter.
The system notification sound goes off every now and then.
Progress to the Spirit Saint Realm Barrier: 87%.
The next day, Lu Sheng ate sixty-three pieces.
Humans are just like that, they get used to pain and it's not so bad anymore. Lu Sheng has now developed a certain resistance to the pain of having his meridians shattered.
Moreover, as he consumed more and more fragments of laws, his physical body became increasingly monstrous through repeated destruction and rebirth. The imprints of those high-level laws were forcibly etched into the very bones of his body.
Later, when he encountered some silk threads of slightly lower quality, Lu Sheng didn't even bother using the Devouring Heaven Furnace to pull them with gravity. He simply grabbed the light blade, shoved it into his mouth, chewed it up with his teeth, and swallowed it.
"Spicy! It's fucking spicy for my throat!"
Lu Sheng coughed up blood and cursed loudly.
Progress towards the Spirit Saint Realm Barrier: 91%.
The third day, the fourth day, and the fifth day.
Lu Sheng ate his way through the dense forest of silk threads, carving out a path for himself.
His physical condition was extremely poor, but his spirit was extremely high.
Wind, thunder, water, ice, fire, and space—these five laws of power have completely coalesced within his body, ready to explode at any moment under the catalysis of the small world seed.
On the sixth day...
Lu Sheng reached out and grabbed the last thread of law in front of him, swallowing it whole.
Suddenly, everything went blank.
He had enough to eat and wear.
Lu Sheng, dragging his battered body, floated in the vacuum.
He raised his head.
The star-sized remains were less than a hundred meters directly in front of him.
At such close range, the terrifying pressure had become tangible. It was like an invisible mountain pressing down on Lu Sheng's back.
His bones creaked under the immense pressure, and his newly grown dragon scales began to crack again.
My heart was so compressed it almost stopped beating.
But Lu Sheng paid no attention to any of that. He stared intently at the remains, his eyes shining with an alarming intensity.
At a distance of 100 meters, he finally saw the entire body clearly.
It is shaped like a person. Although it is as big as the sun, it does have a head, hands, and feet.
It wore a strange set of dark gold armor, covered in marks from sword and axe cuts.
It sat cross-legged in the void, its hands resting flat on its knees. Its expression was extremely calm, without pain or anger, as if it were asleep.
Lu Sheng's gaze followed its neck downwards.
Right in the center of its chest was an extremely horrific wound, running straight through its front and back.
A broken black spear was stuck in the wound.
Lu Sheng stared at the broken gun, his pupils suddenly contracting.
He felt his heart clench violently.
The patterns on the gun barrel, the material that exuded an aura of death—it all looked so familiar.
It's practically identical to the Dragon Devourer Spear he always uses!
"This... could it be the other half of the Dragon Devouring Spear?" This thought flashed through Lu Sheng's mind.
But he immediately shook his head. Now is not the time to study weapons.
His gaze was fixed on the edge of the penetrating wound.
There, a pale golden liquid was seeping out continuously. The primal aura emanating from that liquid was many levels higher than that of the surrounding threads.
This is the very core essence.
Just one sip, and the gate to the Spirit Saint Realm could be kicked open.
"Dinner is ready."
Lu Sheng licked his lips, struggling to move forward despite the oppressive force that threatened to crush him.
Eighty meters.
Fifty meters.
Thirty meters.
Just when Lu Sheng was only twenty meters away from that wound.
A sudden change occurred.
The celestial remains, which had been silent for countless millennia, suddenly trembled very faintly.
It was a slight tremor to it, but to the surrounding space, it was a cataclysmic disaster.
hum hum hum!
There was no warning whatsoever.
Thousands of golden blades of law light were peeled off directly from the surface of the remains.
These light blades were a hundred times more solid than those formed from the outer threads. Each one exuded a terrifying aura capable of instantly killing a Spirit Saint Realm expert.
Thousands of light blades formed a huge spherical killing array, slicing towards Lu Sheng from all directions, 360 degrees without any blind spots.
Lu Sheng's scalp instantly tingled.
He glanced back. His escape route had been sealed off again by the threads that had just been triggered.
There's nowhere to hide.
There's nowhere to run.
This is a deadly trap.
Looking at the overwhelming barrage of light blades slicing towards him, Lu Sheng suddenly grinned.
His smile was extremely ferocious.
"You want to kill me? Even if I die here today, I'll still bite off a piece of your flesh first!"
