From what he could see, it was clear that he was far weaker than he was when he gave up and used the Rewind Metac, but he was very satisfied to see this.
As his eyes roamed over his attributes, he nodded in satisfaction and said to himself, ’A clean slate. I like it.’
’But it shouldn’t be clean for long. It is time to fill it up with something good.’
While he was admiring himself, he saw that the people around him were beginning to recover. They groaned as they woke up, which drew his attention.
When his Insight Stat swept over them, he inadvertently saw Slav among them. The sight of Slav made him pause what he was thinking about and recollect what had happened in the last timeline when he marked Slav and tried to kill him through the Siphon Ability.
He doesn’t plan to repeat that scheme again. But the sight of Slav also reminded him of Money Body’s massive Cave Heaven.
This made his tongue click as he thought to himself, ’Money Body’s Cave Heaven is already bigger than a large world and is even twice as big. But Slav’s Cave Heaven is still bigger. Does that mean Slav’s Cave Heaven is as big as a Super World?’
He didn’t see exactly how large Slav’s Cave Heaven was through the Power Identification Ability because when he had encountered the reincarnated Slav back then, he had been a rank 4 cultivator without any Cave Heaven or Mental World.
Now that he is a divine being, he will surely be able to glean more information about Slav if he were to meet Slav again. But he doesn’t plan to do that at all.
He shook his head inwardly as he thought, ’Slav is like a beehive. He is full of good and delicious things. But getting the honey from him will be fraught with danger.’
’Unless I am strong enough to prevent Slav from killing me, I should not mess with him. Speaking of which, I should be able to meet that requirement pretty soon.’
’Once I recover some strength, gain a lot of lifespan, and gain a lot of living things in my Cave Heaven to use as a battery for lifespan, I should be able to at least prevent him from killing me.’
’Once he can’t kill me instantly, I will be able to escape with the Rewind Metac. And unlike before, I have a Cave Heaven to protect Fenrir. So he won’t be able to stop Fenrir from escaping so easily.’
As he thought about this, he smiled and said, ’Why don’t I give him a visit then?’
After making up his mind about the matter, he waited a while longer for Muni to recover completely. Then he left with Muni to register with the sect.
When he was done with the registration, he deployed the black force field to cover the whole of Crystal City with everyone in it. Then he devoured everyone in the city.
The only place he didn’t touch was the sect grounds. But he ate the rest of the city.
After the black force field returned to his body, it brought with it a lot of lifespan and law fragments. The lifespan that he gained increased the number of years that he had to live from 35 to 1,478,852 years.
So he had gained 1,478,817 years of lifespan from eating more than one million people living in the city. He had also gained 7,136,328 law fragments.
This made him lick his lips and say to himself, ’This is good eating. Why don’t other divine beings do this more often?’
He got one of the answers to this question when the sect gave him a long bill for everyone in the city that he had killed. It was a long list with a total fine of 1 trillion and some hundreds of billions.
Apparently, he had to pay more than the price of the heart of a world for this single city. The first thing that came to his mind was that the sect was charging an exorbitant rate.
Then he remembered that nearly everyone in the city was a cultivator, with many of them reaching rank 4. In comparison, a small world might only have twice or three as many powerful creatures as this one city.
This made him think to himself, ’So the sect is still cheating. But the quality of the people in this city is truly top-notch.’
The second thing he thought of was how other divine beings didn’t have a 100% conversion rate. So someone with a conversion rate of 8.25% would have only gotten 122,002 years’ worth of lifespan and 588,747 units of law fragments for the price of a small world.
Then he thought about how divine beings won’t even be able to eat and digest anything as he can, for fear of a clash between law fragments of different kinds.
So he sighed and said to himself, ’It is truly a shame for other divine beings. As for me, I should do this often.’
The fine he was given for eating this one city was enough to buy the heart of a world, if anyone was selling it. It was the highest amount of fines that he has ever received, but he didn’t worry about the fine too much.
He already had a plan to pay the fine, so he didn’t worry about it. Besides, he had more important things to worry about right now.
The more important thing on his mind made it so that he didn’t bother to wait to see the repercussions of his action after he was done eating. He quickly entered the third dimension and left the Blessed Heaven World.
His destination is the best place he can find the resources to create a new Divine Position. This is in line with his plan for a clean slate.
