The God Realm is no more.
But the legacies left behind by the gods are everywhere.
There is no need to mention the Dragon Clan; they are all descendants of the Dragon God.
The same applies to those sub-dragon species and soul beasts possessing dragon bloodlines.
Beyond that, the Thunder Hell Vine carries the bloodline of the Thunder God.
The Titan Snow Demon possesses the bloodline of the Ice God.
Within the Soul-Absorbing Tablet, the heirloom artifact of the Qiangu Family of the Spirit Pagoda, resides a remnant soul of the Level 3 god, the God of Sin, Medusa.
Mu Han now possesses the power of faith.
Although he lacks the method Yun Ming used to condense the prototype of a god position, he can fully utilize these things.
The bloodline on the Dragon Clan's side has been diluted to an unknown extent.
Coupled with his relationship with Gu Yue, Mu Han does not want to take action against the Dragon Clan for the time being.
The Qiangu family's Soul-Absorbing Tablet is also a trump card treasure, so they certainly would not bring it out.
But the Thunder Hell Vine is still easy to deal with.
In fact, long before establishing the Fatui, Mu Han had already sent people to search for the Thunder Hell Vine.
In the end, they did not find many, but he could simply farm them.
The Thunder Hell Vine accelerates its growth by absorbing lightning.
So, what is difficult about artificial electricity?
In reality, many civilian Soul Tools today no longer require soul power.
At that time, Mu Han established a massive breeding farm.
Though called a breeding farm, it was more like a prison.
After placing the Thunder Hell Vine inside, he continuously fed it electric currents.
In the end, the Thunder Hell Vine still exploded because its body could not withstand that level of power.
However, the seeds remained, and they were cultivated again by Mu Han.
This was also a form of cooperation between Mu Han and the Thunder Hell Vine.
Mu Han provided it with a constant supply of electricity, while the Thunder Hell Vine had to provide some seeds in return.
Even though the Thunder Hell Vine knew it would die if it continued to absorb lightning, such is the nature of this species.
Moreover, the electricity generated by soul power is much weaker than lightning from the heavens.
In the end, this particular Thunder Hell Vine stubbornly held on until it reached 99,999 years before dying.
An ordinary Thunder Hell Vine reaches at most 50,000 years, right?
Using that Thunder Hell Vine soul bone, which was infinitely close to 100,000 years, as the core, Mu Han built a new breeding farm.
A large number of Thunder Hell Vine seedlings shared the damage from the electricity.
Even if one were to explode, it would only feed its life force back to the surrounding Thunder Hell Vines.
At the same time, after exploding, it could gestate even more seedlings.
However, these were not what Mu Han wanted.
So what if he could mass-produce ten-thousand-year Thunder Hell Vines?
Soul rings and soul bones? Mu Han is not lacking in those things either.
But Mu Han knows of a certain situation.
Most house cats released into the wild will starve to death.
Although people say cats eat fish, in reality, most cats—let alone catching fish—don't even really know how to eat them.
Cats only know how to eat cat food; at the very least, house cats are like that.
And these farmed Thunder Hell Vines are much the same.
One must know that after reaching the hundred-year level, a Thunder Hell Vine can summon heavenly lightning on its own.
After reaching the ten-thousand-year level, the area where a Thunder Hell Vine resides becomes a domain of thunder.
But these farmed Thunder Hell Vines rely entirely on the electricity provided by Soul Tools to grow.
This has caused their abilities in certain aspects to gradually degenerate.
However, while degenerating, they must surely be gaining improvements in other areas.
Just as human teeth became smaller, the brain began to grow larger.
The farmed Thunder Hell Vines have begun to gradually mutate.
Mu Han remembers that the original work mentioned that the Ice Jade Scorpion originally possessed a potent venom.
Their toxin was even superior to that of the Vermilion Clear Ice Toad.
They merely abandoned their poison attribute for the sake of Ultimate Ice.
So, what new abilities would a Thunder Hell Vine develop as it gradually lost the power to summon heavenly lightning?
Mu Han did not know if he was interested.
But a Thunder Hell Vine that had lost that specific ability would view itself as the "Thunder God."
Because only Mu Han could provide them with an inexhaustible supply of lightning!
This was the result obtained through generations of inheritance.
Those Thunder Hell Vines grew quickly and died just as fast, so several generations had already cycled through during this period.
Now, the Thunder God bloodline within the Thunder Hell Vines was gradually fading away.
Yet, it was also gradually merging into that original Thunder Hell Vine Left Arm Bone.
This Thunder Hell Vine Left Arm Bone was something Mu Han had originally prepared for himself.
When matching spirit bones, if one of the four limbs is equipped first, the best match for the second spirit bone is the one opposite to it.
Mu Han already possessed the Bloodthirsty Demon Bear Right Arm Bone and the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Right Palm Bone.
Equipping this Thunder Hell Vine Left Arm Bone would surely provide a massive boost to his own strength.
Moreover, Mu Han was not absorbing it directly; he had even prepared a Ten-Thousand-Year Purple Thunder Bear spirit bone.
This Ten-Thousand-Year Purple Thunder Bear was to be a sacrifice for fusing the spirit bones.
He intended to use this Purple Thunder Bear as a sacrifice to help the Thunder Hell Vine Left Arm Bone break through its final hundred-thousand-year bottleneck.
After all, Mu Han's right arm bone came from a Bloodthirsty Demon Bear, and his right palm bone came from a Dark-Gold Terrorclaw Bear.
The Purple Thunder Bear's spirit bone could also enhance the compatibility between the Thunder Hell Vine Left Arm Bone and the other two.
And Mu Han's fifth spirit ring was birthed from this very spirit bone.
It was a spirit ring that appeared entirely purple-gold, exuding an aura of nobility.
"Is that the godhood of the Thunder God?" Just then, he suddenly heard a charming woman's voice ring out.
The woman wore vine armor of cyan and black that barely covered her private parts, and her waist was as slender as if she had no bones, like a succubus.
Though, she was one by nature.
"You are a Thunder Hell Vine? Which generation?" Mu Han frowned.
Excluding special cases like the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, any spirit beast capable of taking human form was at the hundred-thousand-year level.
"The first generation, oh." The woman cast a resentful glance at him. "You took my spirit bone, and now you don't recognize me?"
"Spirit bone?" Mu Han's expression shifted. "Aren't you already dead?"
"These descendants of mine have lost the Thunder God's bloodline, but they have also gained new abilities."
"Just like the Blue Silver Grass, they are endless and ever-growing. And I am the product of that endless growth."
Although it had lost the Thunder God bloodline, the Thunder Hell Vine before him was the first hundred-thousand-year Thunder Hell Vine.
However, Mu Han did not care.
Because he had already obtained the Thunder God's godhood.
Even if it was just a man-made counterfeit.
But no one had ever decreed that a counterfeit must be inferior to the genuine article.
The Thunder God was merely a First-Class God.
But Mu Han's counterfeit Thunder God godhood might one day reach the God King level.
However, these things were inconsequential.
At the very least, he did not need to think about so much for the time being.
With his fifth spirit ring possessing the lightning attribute, Mu Han could already begin to attempt Heaven Forging in advance!
Normally, that was a technique only Titled Douluo could attempt.
But who told Mu Han that his spiritual power had already transformed into divine consciousness?
Who told Mu Han that his fifth spirit ring was equivalent to the tenth spirit rings of those gods in history?
Who told him that his fifth spirit skill just happened to be lightning-attributed?
