Chapter 866 Zhao Ji: Your Cataclysmic Ability is Strange (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhao Ji softly uttered three words, "A drop of blood."

"A drop of blood?" Upon hearing Zhao Ji's words, Qiu Tu's calm eyes widened slightly, and the corners of his mouth turned down almost imperceptibly in shock, revealing his inner astonishment.

Perhaps sensing Qiu Tu's surprise, Zhao Ji, who was in the "Punishment God Realm," slightly curled her lips into a barely perceptible smile. The curve was fleeting, like the tip of an iceberg melting, carrying a hint of smugness.

Then she said, "Yes, only one drop of blood is needed."

Her expression held a hint of arrogance born of absolute self-confidence, and then she spoke.
"Your cataclysmic ability is indeed very sophisticated, but it is too primitive."

Her finger traced a circle in the air, as if drawing some ancient trajectory, "which is why its conditions are so demanding."

"However, after my improvements, this entirely new 'Divine Realm of Punishment' has already touched upon the 'Origin of the World.'"

"Therefore, you only need to obtain a wisp of the other party's soul, or a drop of blood containing divine power, or even a strand of hair imbued with divine aura, to have the ability to transform into Him."

At this point, Zeji paused for a moment, then added,

"Of course, there are prerequisites for transforming into the other person in this way."

"First, His rank must be above that of the gods, and cannot be higher than yours."

Her voice returned to its usual cold indifference, devoid of any emotion, "And regardless of whether His strength is lower than that of a celestial being or higher than yours, the only way to trigger the 'Punishment Domain' is to defeat and imprison Him using the original methods."

"As for the other branch effects of your 'Divine Realm of Punishment,' I haven't analyzed them yet, so they will still be achieved using your original abilities."

Upon hearing Zhao Ji's words, Qiu Tu's eyes lit up slightly.

When Qiu Tu heard that Zhao Ji could help him upgrade the "Punishment God Realm", his first reaction was not happiness, but some worry.

After all, while the core ability of his "Divine Realm of Punishment" is to imprison and transform into enemies, it also has many branch and subsidiary abilities.

Those abilities can both "control" enemies and "execute" them directly, ignoring their rank and side effects; they all have amazing effects.

Qiu Tu had also studied the research and creation of the "Cataclysmic Equation" under Zhao Ji's guidance. Although he was not proficient, he understood that the "Cataclysmic Equation" was similar to "programming".

Replicating the "catastrophic equation" isn't particularly difficult, but fully understanding its underlying principles is extremely challenging.

This also means that only highly skilled individuals like Zeki, whose talent is frighteningly high, can adjust the "Cataclysmic Equation".

Even so, when adjusting the "Cataclysmic Ability", Zhao Ji could not be 100% certain whether the modified "Cataclysmic Ability" would have fewer other functions or more other costs.

This is also what Qiu Tu is worried about: if there are some negative consequences to upgrading the "God Realm of Punishment", he will definitely hesitate.

However, judging from Zeki's current statement, Zeki has probably only cracked the main function of "transformation" in "Gods of Punishment".

As for the other functions, since the "Punishment God Realm" is too complex and she hasn't figured it out yet, she can't adjust them, so they won't affect the effects of other branch abilities.

'This is probably why Sister Zhaoji just said she can't replicate the "Divine Realm of Punishment" yet?'

Thinking this way, Qiu Tu had a general understanding and assessment of the upgraded "Divine Realm of Punishment":
Practical and enhanced version!

The biggest limitation of the previous "Divine Realm of Punishment" was that people had to be imprisoned. This meant that Qiu Tu had to go through a battle and capture his opponent alive every time he transformed.

The risks and difficulties involved are self-evident.

But now, he only needs a little bit of the other person's blood and hair to transform into them.

That leaves so much room for maneuver!
He could easily get his hands on the enemy's blood during a fight, or sneak into their residence and collect their hair without anyone noticing.

If the former "Divine Realm of Punishment" was merely a prison with a single function and many restrictions, then the current "Divine Realm of Punishment" is a war castle that can move freely and is fully equipped with weapons.

This is a huge help for Qiu Tu in his current situation.

Thinking this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but look through the "Punishment God Realm" at the beautiful woman sitting beside the lava, who remained as cold as an iceberg.

His gaze softened, and he said sincerely, "Sister Zhaoji, thank you. This is very helpful to me."

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhao Ji's expression remained unchanged, but a barely perceptible hint of pleasure could be seen in her eyes.

Then she said calmly, "It's just a matter of each getting what they need."

“Your ‘catastrophe ability’ is also very helpful to me.” Her fingers gently stroked the surface of the rock, the movement carrying a hint of expectation.

"Very helpful?" Qiu Tu blinked, a little curious.

Zhao Ji gave a soft "hmm," then frowned slightly and explained, "Your 'Cataclysmic Ability' is the most complex 'Cataclysmic Ability' I've ever seen."

"Although its rank is not high, its abilities are incredibly complex, and both its upper and lower limits are extremely high."

Perhaps worried that Qiu Tu wouldn't understand, she gave another example.

"You should know that when you reach the Celestial God realm, most Celestial Gods are researching Celestial God Techniques, and when you reach the Divine King realm, most Divine Kings are researching their innate divine techniques, right?"

Qiu Tu nodded slightly and replied, "I know."

Zhao Ji said, "Haven't you ever wondered why these gods and god-kings don't use their original cataclysmic abilities?"

Qiu Tu was extremely intelligent; he was the type who could grasp things instantly.

The reason he hadn't noticed this detail before was that he hadn't thought about it in that way at all.

So when he heard Zhao Ji say that, a look of surprise and realization immediately appeared in his eyes.

He first asked in return, "Do other gods and god-kings also need to research and develop divine skills and innate divine skills?"

After asking the question, he didn't wait for Zhao Ji's reply and directly gave his guess.

"Could it be that their 'cataclysmic ability' is greatly weakened after they ascend to the rank of gods?"

Sitting on the obsidian, Zehime nodded slightly and then said in a cool tone, "Yes."

"Or rather, it's not that their 'catastrophic abilities' have become less effective. Rather, it's that their competitors, their enemies, have surpassed the scope within which ordinary 'catastrophic abilities' can be effective."

"Therefore, they must transform their cataclysmic abilities into 'divine skills,' or directly develop 'divine skills.'"

At this point, Zhao Ji slowly rose to her feet, then, gazing at the lava before her, said, "And your 'Punishment God's Domain' is quite unique."

"They seem to have been prepared for the realm of gods and god-kings long ago."

"Its original rank is extremely high, and as your strength increases, this ability will also rise accordingly, and it can be applied seamlessly to gods and god-kings."

"And what's even more amazing is that, although your ability is clearly just a 'catastrophic ability,' it's extremely complex, with numerous branching abilities." "It's a rare case of a core ability encompassing multiple branches."

At this point, Zhao Ji paused for a moment.

Then she said, "To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that there were no artificial traces on the 'equation' of this ability, I would really suspect that this ability was created by some great being."

Zhao Ji's deep gaze was like a bottomless, icy pool, yet within it flickered a faint light.

"Therefore, this is very likely a special case where the 'origin of the world' was unintentionally born."

"It has extremely high research value."

Whether it was the exquisite nature of the "Punishment God Realm" that truly piqued Zeki's interest, she found herself becoming much more talkative.

She said, "I feel that if I can thoroughly study the 'Divine Realm of Punishment,' I might reach a new level in creating and adjusting the 'Cataclysmic Equation.'"

"So, I won't be going out for the next couple of days. You can go on your own for now."

Upon hearing Zhao Ji's words, Qiu Tu:
Whether Zhao Ji intervened or not was of little concern to Qiu Tu. What mattered to him was Zhao Ji's opinion of him.
The "Divine Realm of Punishment" is so exquisite that it is even an exception that was unintentionally born from the "Origin of the World".
But Qiu Tu knew that the Punishment God Realm was not an "exception".

Because his other two cataclysmic abilities are the same.

After advancing to God King, Qiu Tu tested both "Order Space" and "Dark Legion," and both worked.

Not long ago, after he killed those god-kings, he even summoned two god-king level dark soldiers.

The reason there were only two was that the cost of summoning a god-king level dark soldier was too high. He needed to conserve his strength to cross the "Chaotic Western Capital" battlefield.

As for "order space," it goes without saying.

Last night, his bath with Elena and Qing'e proved everything.

Therefore, Qiu Tu doesn't just have one of these cataclysmic abilities that remain effective as his strength increases; he has three.

'Could it be that...Saki's experience is too limited? Does she not know that this kind of ability is actually quite common?'

Or perhaps... I'm truly a chosen one? Miracles that others only experience, I've encountered three at once?

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but recall Zhao Ji's earlier doubts: Could it be that all of this was truly bestowed upon him by some great being after it was created?
Although he felt that all of this was too coincidental, Qiu Tu didn't think about it any further because there were too few clues at the moment and he couldn't figure it out.

In addition, he was in a hurry to figure out the situation of the "Chaotic Royal Court", so after asking Zhao Ji for the method of fine-tuning the "Punishment God Realm", he directly found a broken wall and set up a magic circle to start adjusting this powerful cataclysmic ability.

Meanwhile, Qiu Tu was adjusting his disaster recovery capabilities.

"Destroy the royal city!" A tall and imposing god-king, clad in blood-red armor and carrying a giant sword on his back, was listening to a report from his subordinates.

He was like a moving iron tower, his broad shoulders almost filling the entire hall, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

The blood-red armor was covered with marks from sword cuts and chiseles, and gleamed with a cold light in the flickering candlelight.

"A fourth-level God-King has arrived in the 'Royal City'?"

His voice was deep and hoarse, as if carrying the scraping of metal. His eyes, hidden in the shadow of his helmet, revealed a cold, thoughtful glint.
He said in a deep voice, "When did our 'Royal Court' acquire a wild Level 4 God-King?"

Don't you find this suspicious?

Upon hearing the god-king's words, the subordinate quickly reported back.

"After hearing the report from my subordinates, I also found it rather strange. So I immediately dispatched someone with a special artifact to have the two celestial beings guarding the 'World Passage' draw a portrait of that god-king."

After speaking, he bowed and presented the scroll with his hands trembling slightly.

The god-king, seated high in the hall, reached out and the scroll was in his hands.

"Goddess King?" His cold eyes swept over the painting, his voice carrying a hint of disdain.

Then he casually tossed the scroll to the ground. "Although it's different from the portrait His Majesty gave me, it doesn't mean the other party didn't disguise themselves."

"Investigate! Find out who this Goddess King is!"

"After I find out, I want to meet her in person!"

After saying that, he suddenly stood up from his throne!
In that instant, an aura as deep and impenetrable as a prison swept towards the palace entrance like a tsunami!

Impacted by that force, the entire hall began to vibrate with a buzzing sound, as if it were about to collapse.

Impacted by that force, the subordinate trembled and stammered, "Lord Berserker, you can leave this matter to me."

"You are a half-step 'Advanced God-King,' and His Majesty has instructed you to undergo seclusion to break through to the 'Advanced God-King' level before emerging."

"You can't waste time on such a small matter."

Upon hearing what Shu Xia said, the Berserker God King waved his hand dismissively and said, "It's alright."

Even if we achieve a breakthrough, we cannot work in isolation.

"Moving my hands actually helps me advance."

Since the Berserker God King had spoken, the subordinate was powerless to persuade him further. He could only look at the excitement in the Berserker God King's eyes and feel a headache coming on.
And just like that, half a day passed quickly.

Because Zhao Ji only cracked a part of the "Punishment God Realm" ability and only made minor adjustments to the core ability, Qiu Tu was able to adjust very quickly.

In just one afternoon, the cataclysmic ability "Punishment God Realm" was upgraded to "Godly Skill".

After doing all this, Qiu Tu didn't rest. He randomly picked a random deity, took a drop of his blood as they passed by, and then tested it.

Just as Zhao Ji said. With just a drop of blood, Qiu Tu could perfectly transform into that passerby god.

Not only their appearance and physique, but even their aura is identical.

This effect immediately brought a smile to Qiu Tu's face.

He was just wondering how to contact the spy who had given him the coded message, and Zhao Ji was a real lifesaver.

Qiu Tu decided to remember Zhao Ji's contribution and to make her less angry one more time.

While thinking this, Qiu Tu, after changing his appearance, began to contact the mole who had been lying in wait—
Asking for monthly ticket
