Picking Up Attributes From Today - Chapter 306
Chapter 306: A Spike In Divine Body Sturdiness, 4,000,000 Feet
In a secluded divine nation faraway from Heaven’s Vault Continent, the Dragon God prostrated respectfully on the ground.
A middle-aged man dressed in black robes sat on the throne in front of him.
“My lowly clansman that wanders the lower realms,” the black-robed middle-aged man’s voice boomed loudly with boundless dignity and might as he said, “Let me ask you something—is the information that you previously reported true?”
“My lord, should there be even a bit of untruth in what I’ve said, then let me fall into the depths of hell, never to be reincarnated!”
The Dragon God quickly swore an oath. “That huge tower has a total of 100 floors and is able to turn back time. It’s exactly the same as the rumored Tower of Time!”
“Wonderful!”
The black-robed middle-aged man nodded slightly and added, “If what you said is true, I am willing to take you as my disciple and bestow upon you 20 material planes as a reward.”
“Thank you, my lord… No, thank you, sir[1]! Thank you, sir!”
Overjoyed, the Dragon God kowtowed incessantly.
“This is the construction method for building a Great Void Shift teleportation magic circle.”
The black-robed middle-aged man tapped his finger in mid-air, and then, a golden light beam shot into the area in between the Dragon God’s brows. He said, “Build a Great Void Shift teleportation magic circle with this method within the shortest amount of time and behold my descension!”
“Yes, sir!”
The Dragon God responded affirmatively repeatedly.
“Alright!”
Then, the black-robed middle-aged man’s form dissipated in an instant. The Dragon God slowly got to his feet. As he gazed at the throne that had once again become empty, he couldn’t help but guffaw into the sky.
“Lowly cheap trash, let me see how you’re going to die this time!”
Elation filled the Dragon God’s eyes as he said, “If I can’t get the Tower of Time, then you can forget about having it, too! I’ll watch with my eyes as you die in front of me…”
…
Meng Lei was completely unaware of the ongoings in the Dragon God’s divine nation. At the moment, all his attention was on the Titan blood essence droplet in front of him.
He murmured to himself, “This is just a drop of blood essence, yet it’s already emanating such fearsome might. This is undoubtedly a Titan King’s blood essence! In fact, it… might be from an existence that’s even stronger!”
What was a Titan King?
As a powerful godly clan that dominated the vast Void, the Titan Gods boasted innumerable powerhouses within the clan. They were specifically split into three different grades—Earth Titans, Sky Titans, and Titan Kings.
Earth Titans were comparable to lesser deities;
Sky Titans were comparable to intermediate deities;
And Titan Kings were comparable to higher deities.
As for Titans weaker than lesser deity-level, since they hadn’t even awakened their Titan God bloodline, they naturally didn’t count as members of the Titan Gods.
A Titan King’s blood essence was, in other words, the blood essence of a Titan whose strength was comparable to a higher deity’s.
While it might seem like higher deities were only a grade higher than intermediate deities, in truth, the difference in strength between the two could be said to be like night and day.
Needless to say, a higher deity’s blood essence was naturally incredibly precious. However, most typical higher deities’ blood essence definitely didn’t contain such a terrifying aura.
Meng Lei’s bold conjecture was that the person whom the blood essence droplet had come from was definitely no ordinary Titan King!
Meng Lei couldn’t help but lick his lips as he remarked, “This might even be an Invincible Titan King’s blood essence!”
An Invincible Titan King was an unbeatable existence among the Titan Kings and was comparable to a Great Perfection-level higher deity.
There were millions of Titan Kings among the Titan Gods, but there were undoubtedly only a few Invincible Titan Kings.
“Since I have the Hundred-Armed Giant bloodline, my divine body will definitely be greatly enhanced if I assimilate this drop of Titan blood essence!”
The moment the thought occurred to him, Meng Lei promptly ordered, “System, assimilate the Titan blood essence!”
Buzz…
The Titan blood essence spread apart right away and turned into a thin veil of blood that enveloped Meng Lei’s entire self. Then, it seeped into Meng Lei.
Boom!
At once, the Hundred-Armed Giant bloodline in Meng Lei started to furiously and restlessly stir. Every single cell clamored for and fought to devour the Titan blood essence…
The triggering of the Hundred-Armed Giant bloodline caused Meng Lei to transform into a Hundred-Armed Giant. As though earthworms on his skin, the blood vessels, and veins throughout his body suddenly bulged against his skin.
Meng Lei could sense an endless wave of pure, unadulterated energy gushing into the depths of his cells. It enhanced every single cell, as well as his Hundred-Armed Giant bloodline.
Every cell swiftly split and proliferated!
Every bit of Hundred-Armed Giant bloodline in him rapidly strengthened!
At the same time, Meng Lei’s divine body also began to expand further and further like an inflating balloon.
5,000 feet, 10,000 feet, 50,000 feet…
100,000 feet, 500,000 feet, 1,000,000 feet…
Boom!
An incomparably vast and violent might spread out from the palace that Meng Lei was in and into the surroundings, forming a super-tornado in the imperial palace…
The palace was wrecked, and the palace maidservants and eunuchs inside were sent flying like leaves in the wind!
Even Puhaman and the others, who were currently carrying out their administrative duties, were also flattened to the ground. They watched the giant in the center of the imperial palace with fear and horror on their faces.
“W-what fearsome pressure and might!”
“Has Master broken through again?”
“M-most likely!”
“Oh my god! Master is already an intermediate deity. Is he already breaking through to higher deity-level?”
Puhaman and the others were all filled with shock and horror.
Meng Lei had exhibited a fearsome level of strength that was comparable to an intermediate deity’s when he previously slew the Dark Demonic Dragon. And now… He was about to break through again?
Just how fast was his rate of improvement?
2,000,000 feet, 3,000,000 feet, 4,000,000 feet…
When Meng Lei’s size reached a colossal 4,000,000-feet-tall, his rate of growth finally began to slow down. The current Meng Lei was as if an indomitable giant that towered between the heavens and earth. The sight astounded innumerable people.
How tall were 4,000,000 feet?
Ten feet was equivalent to three meters, so 4,000,000 feet would be 1,200,000 meters, which was equivalent to 1,200 kilometers!
How tall was Mount Everest?
Only 8.8-kilometers-tall!
Even the length of Meng Lei’s sole was taller than Mount Everest!
One could imagine exactly just how tall Meng Lei currently was!
Thus, not only could the people of Dragon God Empire see Meng Lei towering between heaven and earth, but even the people of Titan Empire, Beast People Empire, and Fairy Empire could see him.
“Great God Meng Lei!”
“It’s our Great God Meng Lei!”
“Praise be to you, Great God Meng Lei!”
Everyone bowed and prayed to Meng Lei. Their demeanors couldn’t get any more pious than that.
“What fearsome power!”
Meng Lei didn’t notice how great of a commotion he had caused at all. He exhaled a long pent-up breath as he took in the sensation of the almost-overflowing power in him.
Boom!
The pent-up breath he exhaled turned into a howling storm that happened to crash into a lofty mountain, causing the mountain to be crushed downward from the mid-point right away.
“So, is this what power on the level of a higher deity is like?” A shocked Meng Lei murmured to himself.
“No, it’s not enough yet. It still lacks a bit of power!”
Dodola’s voice rang out. “I don’t know where you got the Titan blood essence from, but your body has only reached the level of an intermediate deity’s limits after assimilation. It still falls a bit short of a higher deity’s level.”
“It hasn’t reached a higher deity’s level yet?”
Meng Lei was slightly startled. He said, “But I feel very powerful right now. It’s as if I can crush the Dark Demonic Dragon, the Magical Beast God, and other fellows like them with just a punch!”
“If I said that it hasn’t reached that level yet, then that means it hasn’t reached that level yet. How dare you question my judgment?”
Dodola suddenly appeared in front of Meng Lei, its quaint little wings flapping slightly.
Boom!
A violent gust of wind swept toward Meng Lei, instantly slamming into his chest. Meng Lei felt a fearsome wave of power striking his chest right away. He couldn’t help but let out a muffled grunt as he stumbled backward, barely managing to come to a stop after more than ten steps.
“What are you doing, Dodola?”
Meng Lei flew into a rage.
Dodola replied dispassionately, “I’ve only used an ordinary higher deity’s level of strength just now, yet I had easily blasted you backward. Do you understand the difference between a higher deity and yourself now?”
“I really haven’t stepped into the realm of a higher deity yet?”
Meng Lei was dumbfounded.
But I’m already so strong!
“Duh! A Titan King’s height typically starts at 5,000,000 feet, but take a look at your height now! You’re still falling a bit short of that. That’s what I mean when I say you still lack a bit of power. Do you understand now?”
