Endless Horde: Through the Eyes of a Godking

Chapter 285: The Budding Violet and Black Calamities



Cedric hummed in thought as he stared at the frame of the Sun Disc. He walked in circles around it, inspecting and scrutinizing it closely.

Humming intensifies

"Well, this would work just fine if it only stayed within Azure Terra. It certainly wouldn\'t be enough to replace an actual sun, but that\'s a problem for later."

His previous idea wasn\'t bad. However, his standards are much higher now after his time in the Tower of Prodigies. He could point out dozens of immediate improvements to the blueprint he had previously made.

Actually, that\'s part of the reason why he decided to take this away from the hands of his subordinates. His current skill level is better kept private for now. If they continued working on this with him, they would eventually ask questions, and Cedric wasn\'t confident in keeping his mouth shut.

He greatly appreciates their enthusiasm for helping him, and he also appreciates the work and effort they put into building this. He also knew that they dedicated a good portion of their resources to building this, and he promised that he\'d pay them back later. However, it\'s for the best if he completes this on his own.

"I\'d have to build a temporary replacement for the moon and the stars too." Cedric hummed to himself as runic symbols began flowing out of his fingertips.

Meanwhile, as Cedric was busy patching the flaws on the Sun Disc and making the blueprints for a temporary moon and stars, his girlfriends were sparring at the arena he created inside the farm, not too far from him.

Cedric used a Dimensional Crystal Fragment, which costs a whopping 500 Trial Points, on the Connate Spiritual Farm to make it bigger. It now has 5000 cubic meters of space inside, which is big enough for them to do as they please.

Chrissy and Erica chose to stay here most of the time since this place has a better atmosphere than outside. The energy density was greater here, and the concept laws were firmer and more present compared to Prime Earth, making their training double the results with half the effort.

They have been using the cultivation techniques that Cedric gave them a few days ago, and so far, they\'ve already succeeded in building their foundations for them.

Through the Violet Qi Mantra, Erica\'s energies have been converted to Violet Qi, which is several times denser and more potent than what she had before. She has only formed five wisps of Violet Qi these past few days, but even this little amount completely trounces what she had before.

Her body had been nourished by the violet qi she formed. Not only did it allow her to completely adjust to her new constitution, but it also prolonged her lifespan completely and made her several degrees stronger than before.

If she were to fight the previous version of herself who hadn\'t practiced the Violet Qi Mantra, she\'d defeat her with one hand behind her back.

The swift and frankly alarming rise of her strength gave her a glimpse of just how truly terrifying the Divine Council was. To think that a cultivation technique like this was readily available for anyone to purchase in that civilization made her realize just how huge the gap was. Now, she could sympathize with what Cedric felt before.

She didn\'t dwell too much on this, though. Instead, she bolstered her determination and decided to increase her mastery as fast and stable as she could.

What\'s crazy to her is that casting the spells she learned so far a hundred times in a row would only \'barely\', and she\'s being generous with her description here, able to drain a single wisp of her Violet Qi.

And that single wisp of violet qi could be recovered by consuming an energy source or by resting for five minutes. Because while it was difficult for her to condense violet qi at first, the moment she did, her body changed and could now start producing it.

This meant that, so long as she paces herself well, she will never run out of violet qi to spend.

She thought that when Cedric said that practicing this cultivation technique made her a walking disaster with bottomless energy reserves, he was exaggerating. Now she knows that he wasn\'t. He\'s completely serious.

Remember, Erica only has five wisps of violet qi right now. Imagine if she has a lake\'s worth of it—a sea of Violet Qi—what she would have as a Violet Qi core. Imagine the damage she could do!

This discovery was so astonishing for her that she even purchased new skills from the shop to add to her arsenal.

As a side effect of creating her foundation for the Violet Qi Mantra, Erica\'s comprehension sharply increased. It wasn\'t difficult for her to learn and grasp new spells. This is what kept her occupied most of the time during these past few days.

Chrissy\'s progress didn\'t lose out compared to Erica\'s.

The Heavenly Poison Scripture was truly tailor-made for her. Her talent, as well as her new constitution, took it in like fish in the sea. On the very first day since she received the cultivation technique, she had already built her foundations for it.

Now that her poison was extremely lethal, even Demon Kings should be wary of what she could do because, on top of her poison\'s lethality, it\'s nigh-traceless. Currently, only Cedric and Erica could sense her poison accurately; it\'s also only them who could shrug off its effects. Cedric\'s Extreme Sun Apertures contain the purest Sunlight Energy, which directly annihilates her poison.

Erica, especially after gaining violet qi, remains mostly unaffected by it.

Chrissy\'s poison contains the power of hexes and curses on top of it, having the profundity of the concept of poison. To say that she was a natural would be a severe understatement.

Truth be told, even in the Divine Council\'s alliance, such a talent on the poison path was rare. If her talent were to be exposed there, many people would fight to claim her as their disciple. Unfortunately, that\'s going to have to wait a bit because the problem of Prime Earth hasn\'t been solved yet.

The Heavenly Poison Scripture doesn\'t just contain the method of practice; it also contains formulas for new poisons that Chrissy could try out. The best part is that these poisons don\'t need actual ingredients to be created; she could make them through the chemical reactions of the Heavenly Poison Seed.

The Heavenly Poison Seed is the foundation for the Heavenly Poison Scripture. It secretes poison qi containing all sorts of toxic elements that could either support or suppress each other, like alchemical ingredients.

One had to know that practicing the Heavenly Poison Scripture normally poses great risks to the user because nobody\'s actually completely immune to poison, not even Erica herself.

This so-called \'immunity\' was a generalization and far from being absolute. In most cases, these immunities are, in truth, just counter-agents or antibodies against toxic elements, which could be disabled under the right conditions.

It is very possible for the practitioners of the Heavenly Poison Scriptures to poison themselves to death. It has happened before, and Cedric repeatedly stressed this to her.

Fortunately, Chrissy wasn\'t an amateur at handling poisons. In fact, on Prime Earth at least, she\'s peerless when it comes to poisons. In addition, her \'Black Rose Calamity Physique\' turns these toxic elements, even the unknown ones, into nourishment for her instead.

It might hurt her at first, but soon her physique will adjust to it and record it; the next time it appears, it will no longer hurt her.

Because of these factors, Chrissy faced fewer obstructions and threats when practicing this cultivation technique.

Sparring with each other is a way for them to squeeze out their potential. They need to be combat-ready because, unlike Cedric, they aren\'t exempt from this war. They will be called to the frontlines sooner or later, and there\'s no way they\'re going to sit still and watch everything unfold. That would be a great disservice to their new skills. Moreover, it might make Cedric disappointed in them.

Erica, the spellcaster with a seemingly endless battery of energy, versus Chrissy, who\'s mere presence could poison someone to death.

While Erica could sense her poison and cast spells to cleanse herself of its effects, she knew that it\'d be a bad idea to let Chrissy touch her. Unlike Cedric, who\'s absurdly strong and could directly ignore her poison, she isn\'t the same.

Chrissy, on the other hand, was annoyed because of the seemingly endless strings of spell Erica\'s unleashing on her. She has barely enough room to breathe, much less release her more potent poisons. Even if she could, Erica would just cleanse them right after, which annoyed her a lot.

Their fight is always a constant stalemate. Neither refuses to give the other an inch of advantage. It was tough, but it is exactly what they need right now. The pressure others exert squeezes out their potential and sharpens their skills.

Cedric, who\'s busy with his projects nearby, was impressed by their effort despite not paying direct attention.
