Chapter 135: Half a Year's Harvest

Mount Emoko, the Ancient God Mountain.

Inside a sealed cave chamber.

"Breathe..."

Gunie let out a long breath.

At this moment, Gunie's realm had already reached the mid-stage demigod level and had stabilized.

Now, half a year had passed since Gunie entered Mount Emoko.

During these six months, most of the time Gunie spent in secluded cultivation to enhance his strength.

Compared to the outside world,

within Mount Emoko, due to the abundance of Cthulhu remains, the energy was extremely pure and contained a small amount of the power of the World Origin.

In some areas, the concentration of World Origin was even several times greater than the richest areas of Darkpasture Lamp Island.

Here, combined with some precious fruits, one could cultivate at a very fast pace.

And at this time, the area where Gunie was cultivating

had a World Origin concentration about twice that of Darkpasture Lamp Island.

That was why Gunie could advance so quickly.

At the same time, his insights into the Arcane Principles advanced by leaps and bounds.

During these six months,

besides cultivating, Gunie also constantly used the Adventure System to search for numerous Cthulhu remains.

Over the half year,

Gunie found three very good Dominator remains.

Compared to the Dominator remains on the Aoya Continent,

the Dominator flesh on Mount Emoko was much larger in both size and mass.

Two of them were slightly larger than Akhtov's remains.

And the largest one was fully twice the size of Akhtov's remains.

With so many Dominator remains, Gunie could enhance his Cthulhu embryo faster and more steadily.

Moreover, as Gunie grew,

when facing these Dominator remains,

these Cthulhu remains could no longer harm him at all.

Gunie easily collected them and sent them into his body for refinement.

Although Mount Emoko was vast inside,

there were also many deities.

During exploration, it was inevitable to encounter other deities and even demigods.

When facing demigods, it was fine.

Generally, those who saw Gunie at the mid-stage demigod level would not easily attack him.

After all, in a battle between demigods, the divine power released would be sensed by other deities as demigod-level, attracting powerful deities.

Then both demigods in the fight would be in trouble.

Therefore, demigods would simply part ways after a brief encounter.

But once they encountered a deity-level powerhouse,

things were different.

Undoubtedly, these deities, seeing Gunie only at the mid-stage demigod level,

saw him as an easy target.

None would be willing to let Gunie go.

Killing this demigod would not only let them take the resources in his hands,

but if he had gained anything, it would fall into their hands. Why not do it?

As a result, in just half a year, Gunie had gained twelve more Divine Crowns.

"The World Arcane Principle, the Darkness Arcane Principle, and the Destruction Arcane Principle have all progressed rapidly."

"Moreover, after multiple reincarnations, the perception clarity of the Darkness Arcane Principle and the Destruction Arcane Principle has increased several times."

"More importantly, the enhancement of my Cthulhu embryo has also increasingly improved my efficiency in comprehending the three Arcane Principles."

"As for the Cthulhu creature embryo, it will grow stronger as it digests the Dominator flesh. When it matures to a certain extent, the power of the Cthulhu creature alone will rival that of a deity."

"The power of a deity has an upper limit."

"But the power of a Cthulhu creature is not like that of a deity; its upper limit is very high."

"Even, if I can integrate some characteristics of the upcoming Origin Being, I could become a powerful Cthulhu creature with no limits on breakthrough."

"Of course, the specifics will depend on the situation."

As he pondered, Gunie looked into the depths of his storage space.

After a moment, he withdrew his gaze.

"The precious fruits that can enhance the demigod realm are almost used up, but they are enough for me to advance to the demigod realm."

"However, treasures that can quickly enhance the deity realm are not sold outside."

"I need to find them myself within Mount Emoko."

"But such treasures are not easy to obtain."

As Gunie was thinking,

"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."

A trembling wave came.

For a moment, the entire cave trembled slightly.

Even the arcane fluctuations of space propagated from afar.

After a full ten minutes or so, the trembling gradually subsided.

Gunie showed no surprise at this trembling wave.

Over the past three months or so,

Gunie had felt this peculiar wave erupt about every half month.

From the soul memories of the deities he had killed, Gunie learned that this trembling was caused by changes inside Mount Emoko.

Whenever a large-scale tremor occurred, it indicated that changes were about to happen in this area.

New ordinary areas might appear,

or special Cthulhu treasures, even rare Cthulhu inheritances, might emerge.

"Time to go out for a look!"

After the tremor ended, Gunie leaped up, opened the sealed chamber, and flew outside.

After every tremor, Gunie would routinely patrol the vicinity.

If a Cthulhu inheritance or treasure really appeared, Gunie could detect it immediately.

Unlike other demigods who lacked the confidence to explore widely,

Gunie had no such concern.

After all, in the past half year, Gunie had killed quite a few deities and even driven off many.

There were already rumors in the area about a formidable demigod powerhouse.

Leaving the sealed chamber, what met his eyes was a vast and expansive desert.

Whoosh, whoosh...

Sharp winds howled, bringing clouds of yellow sand.

In the distance, various huge winding passages and tunnels over ten thousand meters in diameter could be seen.

This desert was Gunie's cultivation site.

At the same time, it was also a place Gunie had taken from a powerful Second-Rank deity.

After occupying it, any deity that entered this area

would be allowed to pass through, but if they wanted to cultivate here, Gunie would unceremoniously expel them.

The weaker ones were simply killed.

Following the planned route, Gunie quickly accelerated.

This area was very large; even with a deity's speed, it would take one or two hours to fully explore.

While flying, Gunie remained cautious, guarding against sneak attacks from other deities.

Although Gunie had gained some fame in this area from his fight with that Second-Rank deity, and ordinary deities dared not provoke him,

that didn't mean no deity dared to provoke him.

Some deities new to this area, seeing a demigod like him, would surely try to test him.

Even with the powerful defensive ability of the [Immortal Holy Armor],

Gunie still maintained sufficient vigilance.
