The Black Gold System only hinted at this battle intent and didn’t mention anything about the divine body.
Richard saw the history of the rise of the battle intent. He hesitated.
The warrior born with battle intent had died. He could sense that it was incomplete.
Its power would be insufficient if he extracted it now.
At this point, he made up his mind.
He would just nurture it even more perfectly since he could.
At that time, there would be more room for preparation.
However, he had to control the threat of the golden body first.
He didn’t want to nurture its condensed battle intent and couldn’t control the body eventually. He would suffer a backlash.
Richard’s thoughts spun.
The power in the ancient god statue surged.
It invaded the golden body.
The ancient god statues devour flesh and blood. That is how they grow and reinforce.
The divine soul Renee would also become stronger because of this.
However, Richard had tried many times before, and the ancient god statue was not interested in ordinary flesh.
Even transcendents would not devour typical flesh.
This statue contained the power of the ancient gods and was interested in the gods.
It devoured under Richard’s precise control.
It devoured the golden divine body, which even the dimension stone and the seed of the world tree could not suppress.
Streams of energy flowed into the statue.
The aura of the ancient god statue rose.
At this moment, the soul of the god of deception that slumbered inside faintly sensed something wrong and gradually became restless.
But Richard was not in the mood to pay attention to this god, so he forced him into a deep sleep.
He continued to control the ancient god statue to absorb the power of the divine body.
He didn’t know what the spider goddess plotted. The golden corpse’s power hadn’t died out and still surged.
It was as if it had just died in battle.
The ancient god statue devoured the majestic energy.
It emitted light that grew increasingly darker.
It was as if a god from the darkness was about to awaken.
However, the darkness was not evil or cruel. It was more accurate to describe it as strange.
Gods from ancient times were the condensation of laws and did not have self-awareness.
That was why they condensed into a strange shape.
Richard carefully controlled the degree. Or the ancient god statue would devour the divine body of the god.
However, almost endless energy still surged out of the warrior’s divine body ten minutes later. That stunned him.
He had underestimated the power contained in the body of a god.
That was the body of a true god, and it had not lost much power.
The ancient god statue emitted light a few minutes later that suddenly increased ten times before it dimmed again.
Richard looked closely and immediately noticed the difference in the statue.
The statue, which was initially lively, became even more alive. One could even vaguely see its chest thump.
It would really feel like this if it weren’t any additional feelings when one touched it.
That was because the energy was too majestic. It distorted the perception of the surroundings.
The speed at which the ancient god statue devoured the body increased after the transformation.
But even so, it took two hours for the golden body’s luster to dim.
That was under Richard’s control. Or the ancient god statue would have released the primitive energy it devoured. But the key was the vast energy its body contained.
He retracted the ancient god statue, and the dark light gradually dissipated.
The god’s body surged with divine might again without suppression.
But this time, the divine might was no longer so intimidating.
The overwhelming battle intent also faded sparingly because of the weakening of the carrier.
However, the piercing intent did not decrease at all.
The quantity went down, but the quality did not change.
That lifted Richard’s spirits.
The next step was to cultivate this battle intent.
His thoughts spun.
The golden body fell.
And that suppressed the depths of the earth once again.
This time, the other party struggled and resisted, but the seed of the world tree alone was enough to immobilize it.
At this moment, the seed of the world tree also emitted a green light and began to penetrate the divine body.
The growth of the seed of the world tree required the devour of divine power and divinity. At this moment, this corpse was the best source.
Richard had deliberately left a portion of his power for it to devour.
He also told the immature planar power about this matter to prevent accidents from happening. The power of the god’s body decreased to a certain level. That immediately stopped the seed of the world tree.
The vague planar power still couldn’t carry out too detailed missions. But this simple setting was not a problem.
Richard was finally at ease.
The ancient god statue released a terrifying power as he pondered.
Then a shadow condensed in the sky.
Divine soul, Renee.
Richard opened the divine soul’s attribute panel with his anticipation-filled heart. He halted his gaze at the level column.
[Level: 17]
This undying existence stored in the ancient god statue had risen from level 14 to 17.
That delighted Richard.
The majestic power eventually raised Renee’s attribute level.
Its potential could be superior over top-tier bosses because this divine soul could continuously revive from ancient times. That was Richard’s opinion.
He would want to nurture the divine warrior into a transcendent.
At that time, coupled with the talent to resurrect incessantly, wouldn’t it be heaven-defying?
