Chapter 405: Chapter 404: Sacrifice and War 3

Dream Dao Attainment, Opening Scheme Against Cultivators

Dream-Making Expert

Lord Tushan murmured in a daze, then felt his spirit-intelligence begin to blur.

That single point of Innate Spirit-Light within his heart that had sustained his long life of several hundred thousand years was slowly dissipating.

He sensed the approach of death.

This was the death-erosion caused by the forced severing of the spirit-light carrying his memories from the divine body that sustained his immortality.

But according to the plan Lin Qi had told them.

This was the first step of the Great Sacrificial Rite.

They, these Divine Spirits, would be struck from the Divine Spirit Record.

Thus, their connection to their divine bodies in reality would be severed.

Only a single point of Innate Spirit-Light would fall into the Lord God's Space that Lin Qi had created.

Next, they only needed to wait for the God Sealing Ceremony that Lin Qi would hold within the Lord God's Space.

Then they could break free in one stroke from the bonds and shackles the Divine Spirit Realm had placed upon them.

Becoming God-Spirits re-ordained by Lin Qi within the Lord God's Space.

Divine Spirit, God-Spirit.

A difference of a single character.

In the eyes of others, it was perhaps nothing more than moving from a slightly smaller place to a slightly larger place to be a god.

But in the eyes of a Divine Spirit like Lord Tushan, they were two utterly different lives.

The former seemed to live long and see far, with vast divine abilities.

Yet in reality, it was nothing but a clay statue in a temple.

It seemed to last a thousand years, ten thousand years.

But in the end, it was just a handful of yellow earth, trapped within, denied freedom.

The latter, however, was like the great peng spreading its wings across the nine heavens, like a divine dragon roaming the four seas.

The sky high, the sea broad, all things under the frosty sky competing in freedom.

Even if one existed within a Dream Bubble Shadow, constrained by Lin Qi's hand.

In the end, one could still see the vastness of the Cosmos, roam the depths of the Jianghu.

Not trapped at the bottom of a well, able only to gaze up at the majesty of heaven and earth.

This was like the difference between a prisoner and a civil servant.

Though both were confined within the system.

The heaven and earth they saw were, in the end, vastly different.

Otherwise, even with Yuyao, a Body Integration Realm Great Power and Venerable, speaking words of golden authority.

These eight hundred thousand Divine Spirits of the Divine Spirit Realm would not have all rushed to this Divine Officer Mountain.

To gamble everything on a single word from Lin Qi.

It was simply that these eight hundred thousand Divine Spirits of the Divine Spirit Realm had long since had enough of the past — trapped within a tiny space, an unchanging narrow world, the same thing over and over.

Trap you on Mount Langlang for a thousand years, ten thousand years.

Knowing well the vastness of the Cosmos, yet forced to bind yourself within a square inch.

And still curb your desires, keep to the rites, sacrifice for others.

Such a life.

Even though these eight hundred thousand Divine Spirits of the Divine Spirit Realm had all been born from the beautiful flashes of human nature.

Under the endless wearing away of time, they too would sooner or later grow dim and lightless.
