Chapter 678: Time To Escalate.
This risk of losing their Cave Heaven completely that the host and the guest have to bear are why divine beings don’t like to involve their Cave Heavens in a fight. After all, if they are defeated and they die, they can still reincarnate with the help of their Cave Heaven. But if they lose their Cave Heaven, evertything that thev’ve worked for over many lifetimes will be lost. free𝑤ebnovel.com
Loki knew all of these, which was why he decided to act weak in order to lure the swordsman into his Cave Heaven and suppress him. Just like the swordsman usually did, he was confident in the power of his Cave Heaven and its ability to overwhelm the swordsman instead of being destroyed by the swordsman, so he decided to go through with it.
This was his plan to deal with the swordsman. With his plan, the swordsman wouldn’t be able to commit suicide and rob him of the benefits of his hard work by being unreasonably stubborn.
Now that his plan worked, he felt immense satisfaction. As the swordsman’s Cave Heaven fused with his, he nodded and said, "That’s it. All 124 million square kilometers of it. It is all mine now, and I didn’t have to sign any contract for it."
The automatic fusion of Cave Heaven is happening because the swordsman had died inside his Cave Heaven. If the swordsman had died in the real world, his Cave Heaven would have dropped to the second dimension. But the swordsman didn’t get the privilege of dying in the real world.
The swordsman had died in Loki’s Cave Heaven, so it is up to him to decide if the swordsman’s Cave Heaven will be free to leave or have to stay behind and accompany him forever and ever. Loki chose to do the latter.
For other divine beings, this fusion might not necessarily be a good thing. Especially if they are on different pathways.
A divine being who isn’t a swordsman would have to quickly halt this fusion and eject the swordsman’s Cave Heaven out of their Cave Heaven. This is so that the law fragments in the swordsman’s Cave Heaven won’t poison their Cave Heaven.
But Loki doesn’t have such worries. So he was very happy to let the swordsman’s Cave Heaven fuse with his. He also pocketed the two new Divine Metacs with a smile. This raised the number of Divine Metacs in his possession to 25. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
As he smiled, he said, "Now that I’ve gotten the fish I was after and I’ve confirmed that my suppression plan works, I can move on to targeting bigger fish. In that case, let the main hunt begin."
He began to grin as he spoke. But the only thing he was doing wasn’t grinning. As he was speaking, he was already moving in the direction of the next target. This target is a rank 7 cultivator.
The rank 7 cultivator isn’t some random rank 7 cultivator either. It is a rank 7 cultivator with three rank 7 Divine Metacs and a Cave Heaven that is 468 million square kilometers in size.
He had picked out this rank 7 divine being over a year ago. The rank 7 cultivator has already been marked, so he knows exactly where to go to find him.
On the way to the rank 7 cultivator, he also ordered the manifestations of Fenrir to target certain divine beings. This way, both he and Fenrir would be very busy soon.
It is true that he had been hunting divine beings in the second heaven for the past two years and two months. But it is also true that he hadn’t been hunting at his full potential.
He had only been hunting weak rank 6 cultivators. This was to make the other divine beings believe that whatever was killing the divine beings in the second heaven was weak.
He had seen many divine beings in the second heaven these past two years. There were even rank 7 divine beings among them. But he had chosen to attack and kill divine beings that possessed a Cave Heaven that was around 30 million square kilometers in size.
All of the 8 divine beings he killed possessed Cave Heavens that were around 30 million square kilometers in size. They were relatively young divine beings who hadn’t lived more than 500 years. Their death didn’t alarm the powerful and ancient divine beings.
It was his selective hunting methods that allowed him to kill 8 divine beings in a short amount of time without alarming the world. It was also why this rank 6 divine being felt confident in his power enough to still come to the second heaven after so many divine beings died.
He would have liked to continue hunting the weaklings for a while longer, but he knows that he can’t do that forever before the quantity of the divine beings that have died overwhelms any lack of fear because of a lack of quality.
Besides the eventual attention that he will draw when 10 divine beings die in the second heaven, there is the fact that he just killed a very powerful swordsman.
The death of the rank 6 divine being with two Divine Metacs and a Cave Heaven that is over 100 million square kilometers in size will definitely rile everyone up and make other divine beings wary of the second heaven.
With the death of such a powerful rank 6 divine being, it won’t matter if all the 9 divine beings that died were killed by the same person. What will matter now is that there is something dangerous enough to kill powerful divine beings in the second heaven.
So he is running out of time to hunt more divine beings. This is why he decided to go out with one last splash by making the manifestations of Fenrir join in his hunt while he goes to hunt a rank 7 divine being.
He hadn’t killed a rank 7 divine being earlier because the death of such a being would have definitely drawn attention. He also hadn’t allowed the manifestations of Fenrir to join in hunting earlier because they were too weak.
