Chapter 765: Little Dragon Girl Regains Her Spiritual Wisdom

This apprehension wasn’t directed at the female corpse, but at the heavy consequences he would suffer for using such an existence.

After all, such a powerful being probably didn’t even need much conscious effort to control; its body’s inherent Battle Power alone was already invincible.

Besides, the body’s weakness was quite obvious.

Its physical body was invincible, capable of shattering the void with a single punch. However, Ye Tianling’s Three Souls and Seven Spirits were, after all, only at the Sword Tribulation Second Refining Realm.

This Realm indicated that his foundation was far too weak.

Therefore, his control speed and the actual Battle Power of his Battle Soul were both extremely low.

It was just like that elder made of Divine Thought, who had seen his greatest weakness with a single glance and sent a wave of killing intent straight for the space between his eyebrows...

If this were the female corpse in her prime, the Divine Thought wouldn’t have dared to attack; it would have likely fled as far away as it possibly could.

...

Ye Tianling didn’t press forward. Instead, he began to perform a comprehensive "analysis" of the Venerable Female Corpse. This wasn’t an act of desecration or prying, but rather a calculation of the corpse’s various abilities.

Only by understanding them could he utilize them effectively.

As expected, after his analysis, Ye Tianling now understood just how powerful the Venerable Female Corpse was.

As long as its speed could keep up and his Divine Thought wasn’t suppressed, fighting a Divine Level Powerhouse probably wouldn’t be too difficult.

As for killing a Daoist Ancestor, that wouldn’t be a problem at all.

However, if he truly mobilized his Bloodline Power and used his Three Souls and Seven Spirits to control the body, it would be an immense drain on him. The pressure on his Three Souls and Seven Spirits would reach an incomparable level.

And if he unleashed too much power, it was highly likely that his Three Souls and Seven Spirits would shatter.

’I’m afraid those Cultivators who slay Daoist Ancestors to use their bodies as "husks" aren’t against the idea of killing Saints, or even Venerables.’

’Those Ancestral Lands and Holy Lands probably have complete corpses of their Saint and Venerable ancestors, but whether they can actually be used is a crucial factor.’

Ye Tianling experienced it firsthand. This body wasn’t like his Demon Heart Sword Body—there was no risk of Entering Demon—but the demands it placed on his Three Souls and Seven Spirits were extremely high.

Furthermore, because his Three Souls and Seven Spirits were not native to the corpse, mobilizing it drained his own Spiritual Power and Soul Power.

If the drain was too severe or the pressure too great, they would simply shatter.

Ye Tianling ran some calculations with his Mechanical Heart and finally came to a conclusion.

The Mechanical Heart drew an analogy: his Three Souls and Seven Spirits were a lightbulb, and the physical body was the power supply.

If his own body’s power supply was, say, one milliampere of current, then the current within the female corpse was at least one hundred thousand amperes.

Ye Tianling’s Three Souls and Seven Spirits were strong enough that the lightbulb could handle being supplied with one hundred thousand amperes of current, but it was highly likely to burn out!

"Tianling, this female corpse’s body contains imprints of an Emperor Pattern. Anyone who tries to inhabit it carelessly will be annihilated, so you must be extremely cautious. Also, while Divine Thought has little effect on this corpse, you can slay those beings and store their Soul Qi in the Space-Time Soul-locking Tower to replenish and restore your Three Souls and Seven Spirits."

"It may seem like using this female corpse has no effect on you now, but once you leave it, an extreme state of ’fatigue’ will set in. At that point, the feelings of hunger and weakness will be strong enough to drive you to despair."

"Of course, you won’t actually be hungry or weak. It’s the shock created by the contrast between the two states. In reality, you’re fine; it’s just that the power of your Three Souls and Seven Spirits will be ’relatively depleted’."

Just as Ye Tianling finished his calculations, Little Dragon Girl’s solemn voice suddenly transmitted to him, as if it possessed a trace of spiritual awareness.

This couldn’t help but startle Ye Tianling.

’What’s happening? Has Little Dragon Girl recovered her Spiritual Wisdom?’

’Or has she fully awakened? Has something changed with Ji Yueqi?’

Ye Tianling was surprised. Without hesitation, he immediately asked, "Little Dragon Girl, are you awake? What’s your current situation?"

"I haven’t fully awakened. The Mechanical Heart suddenly came under immense pressure, and the sheer volume of information it processed allowed the trace of Spiritual Wisdom I left behind to connect with my main body. Tianling, I am a Goddess of the Divine Hall of Destiny who cultivates the Destiny Law. For this to happen means that your situation is dire."

"I know what you’re planning. You can use the Venerable Female Corpse, but you must be careful. You must resist that terrifying feeling of ’hunger’."

"This hunger can also be replenished through Yin Yang Harmony, which is one of the best methods. Another way is through slaughter and Devouring, activating your Demon Heart Sword Body to ’digest’ the power. However, with the latter method, you risk being overcome by your Emotions and truly descending into a frenzy."

Little Dragon Girl’s voice came again, laced with extreme gravity, which moved Ye Tianling deeply.

He finally understood that controlling the Venerable Female Corpse truly had too many drawbacks. If it weren’t for the Space-Time Soul-locking Tower, his powerful Three Souls and Seven Spirits, and the Mechanical Heart shouldering an immense amount of pressure, he would have likely already been obliterated by the Emperor Patterns within the corpse.

After all, the fact that this situation had triggered a Law Sensing even in Little Dragon Girl, who was all the way in the Divine Hall of Life, was terrifying in itself.

"I understand."

Ye Tianling replied earnestly.

"Mm, my Law just produced a Sensing that transcended Space, and I can only maintain it for a moment. Tianling, you must take care of yourself. The situation in the outside world is still unstable. There will certainly be assassination attempts against you, quite a few in fact, but none will be out in the open."

"Also, you must remember to go to the Taiyin Ancient Tomb. It contains Dao Rhyme Fragments of Basic Laws like the Time Law, Space Law, and Destiny Law. Obtaining even a few will be of immense benefit."

"This is a rare opportunity! It’s a chance for all of us Cultivators to grow. After all, an opportunity to obtain Dao Rhyme Fragments of Basic Laws like this will never happen again."

"This world only had one ’Chaos Birth’ Space, and now it has matured and fused with the entire Cosmos. These Dao Rhyme Fragments containing Basic Laws can never appear again in the future."

Little Dragon Girl added.

Ye Tianling nodded. He understood what Little Dragon Girl meant.

Besides, it was the truth.

Although Purgatory Purple Mountain itself was also a ’Chaos Birth’ Space, it was clear that once the Cosmos became whole, no similar phenomena could occur again.

Purgatory Purple Mountain had become its own independent World, a unique existence akin to a Magical Treasure.

Little Dragon Girl knew this but didn’t mention it, which in itself implied that many of the Laws in the outside world had already begun to unify.
