Who would get the Abyssal Demon Barr’s Godhead?

As the crowd looked at the Godhead in Yang Ling’s hands, they got excited and nervous. As long as they consumed this Godhead, they might likely become a lofty High-Level Deity.

A High-Level Deity! This was a powerhouse that could run amok in Tailun Continent, and both the Corpse Wizard King and the beauty Sala were quite excited. None wouldn’t be tempted by this rare Godhead, and none could resist its deadly allure.

“It’s mine. It’s mine.”

Whenever someone saw Yang Ling looking at him, he would be so excited that his heart would shortly jump out of his chest. But, it was a pity that they got excited repeatedly and were disappointed repeatedly. They waited for a long time, yet Yang Ling still held the Abyssal Demon’s Godhead in his hands.

“Should I give it to the Corpse Wizard King, the beauty Sala or...” Yang Ling was hesitant for a moment as he observed the crowd that waited for him excitedly.

The Abyssal Demon Barr specialized in the Fire Law, and his Fire Spells possessed great might. According to reason, this Godhead should be given to the Burning Fire Elf King that was also specialized in fire attack, and he was the most suitable person for it. He could surely release Fire Spells’ greatest power. But, the Burning Fire Elf King was training in seclusion in the desert most of the time, and he didn’t make a contribution as great as the Corpse Wizard King, beauty Sala, and others. This was why it wasn’t appropriate to give him the precious Godhead.

The Corpse Wizard King had great prestige and made many contributions. If the Godhead was given to him, none would be disappointed. But, it was a pity that the Corpse Wizard King practiced the Death Law, and it was vastly different than the Fire Law practiced by the Abyssal Demon Barr. If he swallowed the Godhead, it would be difficult for him to release its true power even if he was assisted by the Black Crystal Marrow. This was why it wasn’t appropriate to give it to the Corpse Wizard King!

“Hydra, come over!” After Yang Ling muttered to himself irresolutely for a long time, he looked at the Nine-Headed Python Hydra that risked his life for him to block the Demon Barr’s attack. He had finally made a decision, and he decided to give the Godhead to Hydra.

The Giant Ape King, the beauty Sala, and the others didn’t practice the Fire Law like the Corpse Wizard King, and if they fused with the Godhead, it would be difficult for them to release its true power. The Dark Dragon King didn’t just have great physical power, but he also had pretty good Fire Spells and made many contributions. He was a good choice. However, after Yang Ling considered this repeatedly, he decided that giving the Godhead to the Nine-Headed Python King Hydra would be the most appropriate action.

Hydra didn’t join the Magical Beast Army for long, but it was the sole God-Level Magical Beast, and it managed to make impressive battle contributions in a short time. It sank the Demon Island, destroyed the Church and helped in killing the Abyssal Demon. Its contributions were obvious to all, and the crux was that it was still a Nine-Headed Python with a Mid-Level Deity’s power that comprehend several Laws that included the Fire Law. By handing over the Abyssal Demon Barr’s Godhead to it, the Godhead’s power would be brought out to a large extent.

“Lord, this is...” After Hydra held the Godhead in its hand, it got quite excited. It had suffered many hardships to become a High-Level Deity, and it still didn’t know when it would manage to achieve advancement. It didn’t expect that an opportunity would come to it so quickly!

Even though it looked forward to getting the Godhead in Yang Ling’s hands, it still knew itself well and understood that the time spent by it in the Magical Beast Army was too short in comparison to the Corpse Wizard King and the beauty Sala, while its contributions weren’t enough. It didn’t have a high chance to get the Godhead!

It didn’t expect that fortune would suddenly befall it!

“Swallow the Godhead and consume ten drops of Crystal Marrow. Hydra, I hope that you won’t disappoint me.” When Yang Ling noticed that Hydra was so moved that its eyes turned red, he chuckled and spoke as he handed over the Crystal Marrow to it.

“Lord! Thank you, thank you.” Hydra prostrated in front of Yang Ling and saluted him respectfully before it swallowed the Godhead and the Crystal Marrow.

“Hydra, congratulations.” The Corpse Wizard King let out a bitter laugh. If Yang Ling handed over the Godhead to someone else, he might not have been able to accept it, but he had handed it over to Hydra that had a Mid-Level Deity’s power and had once risked its life to save Yang Ling. None had any objection to this, and they were just disappointed slightly.

Even the Corpse Wizard King didn’t have an objection, let alone other people. The Nine-Headed Python King Hydra’s power was unquestionable, and its contributions were obvious to all.

“Lord, I’m the most pitiful person here. I didn’t get any Godhead. So, you should at least give me several drops of the Crystal Marrow.” The beauty Sala was quite smooth and slick. The other people were still disappointed, while she quickly set her eyes in the bottle of Black Crystal Marrow returned to Yang Ling by Hydra. Even if she couldn’t get a Godhead, it would still be pretty good to get several drops of Crystal Marrow.

“I have a low amount of Black Crystal Marrow, and I won’t manage to replenish any drop used.” After the crowd got the beauty Sala’s reminder, they looked at Yang Ling like hungry wolves. But Yang Ling could only shake his head and say, “Now, every person should pick several Magical Beasts’ Essence Crystals with similar attributes and swallow it. As for the Black Crystal Marrow, you can look for me for it once you get a Godhead. Don’t forget that this is the Graveyard of Gods and Devils, and the precious Crystal Marrow should be consumed with a Godhead so that its great effects would be put to use.”

Did they have to get a Godhead to gain the Crystal Marrow?

Upon hearing what Yang Ling had said, the crowd’s eyes lit up. The Graveyard of Gods and Devils was quite dangerous, but many opportunities were hidden in it, and the number of God-Level experts and Magical Beasts in it was higher by much than Tailun Continent. As long as the elites laid an ambush to mount a sneak attack, it wouldn’t be difficult for them to get several Godheads.

“Hehehe, this Essence Crystal with Death Attribute is mine, none should fight over it with me.” The Corpse Wizard King responded quickly, and he rushed over. He held the Giant Prussian Crocodile’s Essence Crystal tightly.

“B*stard, all Giant Dragon’s Essence Crystals are mine.”

...

After the Corpse Wizard King’s demonstration, the crowd rushed over and started quarreling over Level Surpassing Magical Beasts’ Essence Crystals. They quarreled so much that Yang Ling, who observed this, couldn’t help but shake his head. However, the Corpse Wizard King and the Dark Dragon King knew that no matter how good were Essence Crystals, they still shouldn’t consume them negligently, and they shouldn’t just swallow them indiscriminately.

The beauty Sala that was neither male or female was a living demonstration of this, and none wanted to turn like her after swallowing Essence Crystals indiscriminately.

“Lord, your lordship!” When Yang Ling was about to collect the remaining Magical Beasts’ Essence Crystals, the Beast Soul Priest Augustus yelled as he rushed over like wind from a distant place. He was swifter than before by much!

“Lord, I have made an advancement, I finally became a Mid-Level Beast Soul Priest.” Augustus was quite excited, and he spoke excitedly, “I have achieved an advancement, and as long as I have enough crystal ore and Magical Beasts’ Essence Crystals, I will be able to upgrade the Beast Soul Altar and form more powerful Mutant Magical Beasts.”

The Beast Soul Priest that was born as an Orc wasn’t like ordinary people. It was difficult for him to comprehend all kinds of Worldly Laws, and it was also difficult for him to absorb the Magical Power in the air. This was why his advancement spell was so slow, and most Orcs wouldn’t even manage to become a Beast Soul Priest despite working hard for their whole lives. The sole shortcut was using a Beast Soul Altar to train and absorbing the energy released after the altar absorbed and fused Magical Beasts.

It was extremely difficult to build a Beast Soul Altar, and a large amount of materials must be consumed. This was why only a few simple primary altars were built in the whole Orc Empire, and they were all occupied by the Empire’s Imperial family. Making a quick advancement through the Beast Soul Altar wasn’t any different than a pipe dream to ordinary Orcs. But, Augustus was different than them, and he could laugh even in his dreams.

A whole Beast Soul Altar belonged to him alone, and none fought over the energy released by the altar upon Magical Beasts’ fusion. The crux was that he was supported by the Magical Beast Camp in the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension, and he could fuse Magical Beasts continuously all day long. He could make tries and fumble as he wanted while absorbing a large amount of energy in passing. He had good circumstances, and this was it was normal for him to advance quickly, and what would be abnormal was failing to achieve advancement for a long time.

The Beast Soul Altar’s upgrade?

Yang Ling was overjoyed. Augustus’s news arrived on time!

After Yang Ling entered the Graveyard of Gods and Devils, he realized that his power was too low, and he might fall beyond redemption at any moment by mistake. Comprehending Laws further and practicing Wizard Spells was crucial in the long term, but if he wanted to raise his power quickly, then he could only try to achieve this through the Magical Beast Army.

As the strength of the enemies faced by him rose higher, even the Twin-legged Flying Dragons and Dark Dragons weren’t any longer able to deal with them, let alone Low-Level Magical Beasts such as the Horned Bee Beasts and the Evil Eyes. He could use the Life Spring’s water, Crystal Marrow, and Godheads to train and quickly raise the power of the Giant Ape King, Dark Dragon King, and other Magical Beast Kings, as well as Level Surpassing Magical Beasts. But, he must come up with another solution for other Magical Beasts with power below a Level Surpassing Magical Beasts. After all, the amount of Black Crystal Marrow and Godheads was quite limited.

There were two methods for increasing the Magical Beast Army’s power. One of them was bringing in fresh blood, and the other was increasing the power of the current Magical Beasts in it. It would be important to come up with a way to make an ambush for the Graveyard of Gods and Devils’ God-Level Magical Beasts and tame them, but the Graveyard of Gods and Devils was filled with danger and had a large expanse. It wouldn’t be difficult to tame several God-Level Magical Beasts in a short time, but it wasn’t realistic to attempt to tame a large number of them.

This was why he could only try to come up with a way to tame High-Level Magical Beasts and raise the power of the Magical Beasts he had. The consumption of Magical Beasts’ Essence Crystals was a feasible method, but there was a quicker and more effective shortcut, and it was using the Beast Soul Altar to form more powerful Mutant Magical Beasts.

“Augustus, you should promptly upgrade the Beast Soul Altar. I will order the Six-Winged Angel Leader Ophelia to transfer over all resources in the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension to you, and you can just go ahead and say how many crystal ore and Magical Beasts’ Essence Crystals you need.” Yang Ling spoke as he weaved a Wizard Seal and summoned over Ophelia that was preaching in a distant region. He asked her to support the operation of the Beast Soul Priest Augustus fully.

He had the personnel required, while crystal ore and Magical Beasts’ Essence Crystals weren’t an issue. He didn’t mind to consume all Premium Crystal Ore and Magical Beasts’ Essence Crystals in his hand to increase his power quickly.

The greater the expenditure, the greater the gains.

Yang Ling believed firmly that as long as he could gain a foothold in the Graveyard of Gods and Devils, he would manage to get gains beyond his imagination. It was really like what Raymond had said. The Graveyard of Gods and Devils was quite dangerous, but it was also very wonderful and was filled with opportunities. The Graveyard of Gods and Devils was probably just a terrifying graveyard to cowards, and they might die at any moment if they weren’t careful. But, this was the best hunting ground for daring and careful adventurers.
