Chapter 1060: The Demon Emperor Attacks!
A spiritual pressure as deep as an abyss and as dreadful as a prison enveloped the four directions, and all cultivators suddenly felt a grand, masculine thought rise up.
Under the night sky, divine consciousness spread through every inch of space, bringing an incomparably heavy pressure upon the heart.
With only a single thought, the world would instantly change color and clouds. This was power capable of altering the structure of the cultivation world, power that truly stood at the highest level of the Five Regions.
As long as Liu Yu wished, he could split into thousands upon thousands of strands of divine consciousness in an instant.
Each strand could change with great flexibility, and even possess simple thinking ability.
The reason divine consciousness was called divine consciousness was naturally because it possessed the characteristics of a living being's thoughts.
Even when severed from control, it could still make simple judgments and think, and it could also take the initiative to attack, absorb heaven and earth spiritual energy, and so on.
Moreover, it would not dissipate for a very long time.
Not only that, but it also inherently possessed tremendous might, and was extremely powerful against most true lords.
One thought to form a technique—it was effortless.
Many spells below the fifth stage no longer required hand seals like before; with only a thought, they could take shape.
Advancing to divine transformation was a huge leap, and the change was not limited to divine consciousness. The strength of magical power had also increased tremendously.
If, before the breakthrough, his magical power strength in the "full-body true form" state, enhanced by various methods, was around forty-five, then now Liu Yu's magical power strength was at least over one hundred.
Normally, a difference of seven points would already create a crushing advantage.
Looking at it this way, the gap was simply as vast as heaven and earth.
And the later the comparison went, the greater the difference became. The distance between one hundred points and forty or fifty points was definitely not as simple as merely being twice as much.
When using the same spell, the difference in might was at least tenfold!
And in terms of divine consciousness, Liu Yu continued to maintain the advantage as well.
A newly advanced divine transformation cultivator generally had a range of around three thousand li; early-stage divine transformation cultivators were usually between three thousand and five thousand li.
As for him now, his divine consciousness had already reached an astonishing five thousand li!
And thanks to the profound accumulation from the yuan ying realm, his current realm could be said to be as stable as a mountain, with absolutely no hidden danger of falling in cultivation.
Using his body as the price to cast the "Blood Burning Divine Transformation Secret Technique," Liu Yu had only just stepped into the divine transformation level, yet he had already taken a solid great step forward.
He was by no means comparable to most of those who had just advanced.
If one insisted on making finer distinctions and divided the divine transformation realm into nine layers, then he was probably around the "divine transformation second layer."
Although he had lost his physical body, he had thereby severed flesh karma and exchanged it for an increase in cultivation realm.
From the current perspective, this could be said to be entirely worth it.
Besides, with Liu Yu's current fifth-stage divine transformation methods, and with the Immortal Abode as his support, accumulating massive quantities of heaven and earth spiritual objects, recreating a perfectly compatible body would only be a matter of moving his fingers.
Under normal circumstances, the total spiritual root affinity of a cultivator was at most one hundred points. If all of it was concentrated in a single spiritual root, that would be the "heavenly spirit root" of a favored child of heaven.
This was the limit imposed by the Great Dao. Almost all living beings in the endless worlds were like this.
