When 'God' Decides To Start Over

Chapter 631 - 261 Sister_3

"Elro didn’t even mention any levels below the Light Base, indicating that creatures beneath that level are insignificant to him. For him, my S-level is indeed a low-level being." Li Xiu secretly rejoiced, "She’s truly my dear sister. Now with the Divine Position level Elro, won’t I be able to easily slaughter magical spirits, effortlessly navigate the Land of Trial, and acquire unlimited resources as long as magical spirits persist?"

"Little El, you’re probably familiar with Celestial City here, right? Do you know where there are Divine Position-level magical spirits we can go hunt?" Li Xiu immediately grew greedy.

Elro spoke gloomily, "Master, I am sealed within the Golden Dinner Knife by that master. I can’t use my power at all; only when you, Master, use the Golden Dinner Knife can its power be wielded."

"What do you mean?" Li Xiu didn’t quite understand Elro’s words.

After Elro’s explanation, Li Xiu finally understood what it meant.

Now the situation with the Golden Dinner Knife is similar to the Spiritual Mace; Li Xiu himself needs to activate the Golden Dinner Knife’s power.

Previously, activating the Spiritual Mace relied on Spiritual Sense, but activating the Golden Dinner Knife requires Light Energy. The stronger Li Xiu’s Light Energy, the stronger the Golden Dinner Knife becomes.

"My sister, aren’t you putting me in a tough spot? Clearly the Golden Dinner Knife is a Divine Position level item, yet it can’t fight on its own and needs my Light Energy to activate—are you really not intentionally making things difficult for me?" Li Xiu felt somewhat frustrated internally.

"Maybe that master wants to hone your capabilities, hoping you don’t become overly reliant on external forces..." Elro said awkwardly.

"Forget it." Li Xiu knew he couldn’t blame his sister for this.

Obviously, the girl’s light shadow wasn’t his sister’s true form, but merely a wisp of Spiritual Sense left within the Spiritual Mace. Just a wisp of Spiritual Sense achieving such feats is already terrifying.

Moreover, she’s searching for a way home; she probably won’t be back for a while. If Elro wasn’t given some limitations, who knows what trouble he might cause.

Li Xiu pondered on asking his sister, when he meets her, why she didn’t teach him how to cultivate earlier.

If he had known his sister was so strong, why bother learning Demon Armor? Following her cultivation could possibly have already made him a Divine Position.

To use the Golden Dinner Knife, first sufficient Light Energy is required. Right now, Li Xiu’s body lacks enough Light Energy; first, he needs to condense his Light Vein to store more Light Energy.

Clearly, the Super Spirit step is essential as well.

After a night’s sleep, upon waking the next day, Li Xiu went to find Old Dao, asking if there was a way to obtain Super Spirit Gemstones.

"Getting Super Spirit Gemstones, it’s both difficult and easy." Old Dao said with a smile, "There are quite a few magical spirits inside Celestial Gate, and randomly picked magical spirits are all at least Super Spirit level. But finding them isn’t easy. There are places even I don’t dare venture into, and can’t wander about recklessly. Like when you went to the pig farm—it’s a relatively safe area within explored regions, yet things still went wrong. Other places are even more dangerous, possibly hiding terrifying magical spirits. Thus, it’s somewhat difficult to find magical spirits. But if magical spirits attempt to break through Celestial Gate from here, obtaining Super Spirit Gemstones becomes easy."

"When will magical spirits come?" Li Xiu pressed further.

"It’s hard to say; they might come soon, or it could be days or months—no one can be certain of this." Old Dao replied.

"That’s like saying nothing at all." Li Xiu grew instantly frustrated, "Why didn’t those Evil Ghosts leave anything after being slain?"

"Evil Ghosts are unique; I’m not too clear on them either. When encountering Evil Ghosts again, be cautious. The Evil Ghost King was suppressed for many years and quite frail before; what might happen later is uncertain." Old Dao shook his head.

Li Xiu lacked other solutions, probing more about Celestial Gate, but gained nothing noteworthy. As per Old Dao’s advice, it’d be best to venture out, hunting magical spirits at other Lands of Trial for Super Spirit Gemstones or directly buying a pre-owned Super Spirit Gemstone.

"Seems like there’s no choice." Initially planning to attain Super Spirit before leaving, Li Xiu reconsidered after the pig farm incident, wary of continued risk inside Celestial Gate.

Previously rescued by his sister, now without the Spiritual Mace, facing terrifying magical spirits would leave him helpless.

"Having ascended to S-level, my goal here is accomplished—I should leave." Li Xiu summoned Jing Li, Sha Chu, and Jiuxiao Yun to prepare for departure from Celestial Gate.

After bidding farewell to Old Dao, the group retraced their path; crossing the Single-log Bridge and Yanbo Pool this time felt seamless, returning securely outside Celestial Gate City.

"Sha Chu, don’t extinguish the lamp immediately; stay here and wait for two days." Li Xiu instructed Sha Chu to remain behind while he, Jing Li, and Jiuxiao Yun exit first.

All three extinguished their Longevity Lamps simultaneously, with the lamps darkening, Li Xiu saw the scenery change, and found himself before the Trial Gate alongside Jing Li and Jiuxiao Yun.

"Li Xiu, you dare to come out?" As the three stabilized, they spotted Li Changmian leading a group, encircling the Trial Gate.

"Why wouldn’t I dare?" Speaking, Li Xiu activated his Artificial Thirteen Magic Armor, donning it.

Upon leaving the Land of Trial, articles he carried spontaneously returned to him.

Besides the Artificial Thirteen Magic Armor, there was also a big box of gemstones, all exchanged by selling Light Planting Technique.

"Since you’ve returned, leave your life behind." Li Changmian’s Light Energy surged, advancing toward Li Xiu.

Jing Li wished to intercept but was blocked by another Trial Taker, while Jiuxiao Yun faced similar obstruction.

"Jing Li, mind your own business." The Trial Taker stopping Jing Li was an old man, accompanied by a humanoid magical spirit enveloped in black shell armor, wielding a long spear. Its Light Energy surged, seeming to be guarded by Evil Spirit City, looking rather terrifying, likely a Light Base level magical spirit.

Before Jing Li could react, the magical spirit had swung its long spear, charging forth.

Recognizing the one obstructing him, Jiuxiao Yun mounted his Demon Shark, vanishing underground.

Li Changmian approached Li Xiu, while transforming bizarrely. His body covered in black scales, extending into a Strange Sword formed by stacked scales.
