Chapter 201: Chapter 201 – Equal in Strength and Power

I

“After reaching five points, the transition from six to ten points marks a threshold: at this stage, two points of Divinity are needed to enhance one’s own Divinity by one point. This stage is known as being a Level 2 Divine Being,”

“As for the Third Level Divine Beings, naturally, that would be between eleven to twenty points of Divinity, requiring the fusion of four points of Divinity to enhance one’s own Divinity by one point,”

“Moving forward, between twenty-one to forty points lie the Level 4 Divine Beings, needing a full ten points of Divinity to strengthen one’s own Divinity by one point,”

“After Level 4, from forty points of Divinity up to one hundred points, one would be called a Fifth Level Divine Being,”

“With each increase in Divinity Level, one can gain a new Divine Extraordinary Ability or upgrade an existing one. The higher the Divinity Level, the stronger the new Divine Extraordinary Abilities one can obtain,”

“The gap between Divinity Levels increases exponentially, which means that a Level 2 Divine Being with ten points of Divinity is far more than twice as strong as a First Level Divine Being with only five points,”

“Oh! So that’s how it is,”

Lin Xiao understood. No wonder he rarely saw those players who were not short of resources with too high Divinity. Even Wu Zhonglin only had slightly over twenty points of Godness value. Apart from the issue that eroding the residual will of Divinity is too troublesome and time-consuming, there was also this reason.

If it weren’t for this difficulty, the wealthy clan heirs, who have no worries about resources, could completely leverage their family’s constant supply of Divinity to accumulate several hundred or even a thousand points at a time, which would be ridiculous.

Having understood all this, Lin Xiao clearly knew what he had to do.

But before he terminated the communication, he suddenly said,

“I like you. Think it over!”

He waited a moment, and as expected, there was no response, so he hung up first.

There was no need to rush her; giving her time to think it over was essential. Persisting in waiting for her response might give her the impression that he was pressuring her, which could backfire.

He planned to contact her again in a day. By then, she should have had enough time to think it over. Not too long, not too short.

Back in the Divine Realm, Lin Xiao put aside his feelings and tossed the bit of Divinity he extracted from the Demi-God Statue into the Creation Rubik’s Cube. Of the twenty-one available points of Divinity he had left, he invested sixteen points, keeping the remaining five to slowly erode on his own to strengthen his willpower.

There was no rush for this.

The Divinity rid of residual will was pure beyond compare. He integrated it into himself gradually, slowly reinforcing his own Divinity.

It should be noted that although he previously had only four points of Divinity and two points that had not yet taken shape, during the fusion of Divinity, the unconsolidated two points were counted as if they were consolidated. That is, the point of Divinity he just fused was considered the seventh point, requiring two points to enhance his own Divinity by one point.

In other words, he was now starting with six points of Divinity. Adding the previous point, he used eight whole points of Divinity to instantly strengthen himself to ten points, barely reaching the peak of Level 2 Divine Beings.

Going forward, his level would be comparable to the strongest batch of contenders from the Summer Camp, aside from Wu Zhonglin.

This would require a full four points of Divinity to add just one point, and he happened to have eight points of Divinity left, just enough to increase by two points.

Meaning, he now possessed 10+2 points of Divinity as well as one point that was in the process of being eroded.

Besides, he had the skull of a Semi-god Vampire with five points of Divinity, and three points of Divinity that had not yet been granted.

When his Divinity surpassed ten points and reached a Rank 3 Divinity Level, Lin Xiao immediately felt a significant change.

Firstly, after his Divinity strength surged, the speed at which he could erode Divinity increased by a large margin. Previously, he estimated that it would take nearly a year to erode the lingering will and spiritual branding within this point of Divinity, but now he felt that it could be done in just over half a year, saving a third of the time or more.

In addition, the expansion speed of his Divine Domain was growing.

To speak in professional terms, his strengthened Divinity resulted in enhanced control over the Divine Domain, and the speed of integrating Divine Kingdom fragments increased as well.

Beyond that, there were a plethora of benefits, such as stronger power boosts when descending Divine Incarnations and the ability to project even more powerful incarnations.

By current standards, Lin Xiao could project a Divine Incarnation with the strength of a Rank 7, just beneath the legendary Rank 8 powerhouses, provided he was willing to expend enough Divine Power.

Enhanced Divinity addressed a weakness of his. Even if he couldn’t dominate his era like his classmate Wu Zhonglin, this made him a standout among his peers and barely passable; it wasn’t like before when he only had four points of Divinity, which would have likely ignited dissent across the entire school, leading to immeasurable trouble in the future.

Having resolved the troubles with divinity, Lin Xiao felt quite good and finally had the time to cast his gaze into the Divine Realm and scan it.

However, this scan shocked him. In just a few years, he noticed that there had been huge changes within his Divine Realm. The Wise Goblins had moved; they abandoned their original city and built a new one elsewhere.

Looking into the cause and effect, he finally understood the reason.

It turned out that a few years ago, he had bestowed the Tower of Truth, and the curious Wise Goblins who entered the Tower of Truth discovered the various pieces of knowledge stored inside. It was like opening the gates to a new world for them. The myriad of knowledge in the Tower of Truth deeply captivated them, so much so that they spent days and nights inside the tower, immersing themselves in this knowledge to the point of neglecting to return home.

Later on, feeling that this was inconvenient, and considering that they had come to regard the Tower of Truth as a holy land of knowledge, they decided after a discussion to abandon their original city. Moving en masse, they combined the knowledge they had learned from the Tower of Truth to rebuild a new city centered around it.

The new Tower of Truth was located in the very center of the Divine Realm and was revered as the holy land of Truth. The structure of the entire city was clearly more logical than the original one and carried a style reminiscent of the Main World.

Lin Xiao projected a sliver of his will into the new City of Truth, taking the form of an ordinary goblin as he walked down the central street of the city. The majority of those around him were goblins, but there was a small number of Fishmen and occasionally a Supreme Naga passing by.

At this time, the three races of the Divine Realm lived together, still led by the Supreme Naga. However, as the Wise Goblins gradually obtained new knowledge from the Tower of Truth and invented various strange things to improve their lives, many small inventions proved to be very convenient and practical. They were greatly appreciated by the Fishmen and the Supreme Naga, which subtly raised the status of the Wise Goblins.

Just like the Ancient Arena, the Tower of Truth was another miracle building, that is, a building capable of producing miracles. It was not too far from the Ancient Arena and had become one of the two cores of the Divine Realm.

At first glance, it looked like an ordinary tower with its simple stone walls, complex patterns, and strange reliefs covering the entire structure.

When Lin Xiao first entered the tower, he immediately sensed a weak spirit inside. This was the Tower Spirit that had naturally formed after the birth of the Tower of Truth, similar to Flower Fairies and Elemental Sprites, but weaker and unable to leave the Tower of Truth.

However, as time went on and more and more Wise Goblins spread the knowledge they had acquired from the Tower of Truth, the strength of the Tower Spirit would grow stronger.

But there was a limit to this strength. After all, the Tower of Truth was confined here unless…

In the future, if Lin Xiao’s Divine Realm could grow to a certain limit and the Tower of Truth could likewise reach a certain level, then perhaps it could break through the limits and ascend to become a True God.

But this was very difficult, extremely so, and for now, he saw no possibility of it.

He decided not to worry about this for the time being and just go with the flow. At the moment, he was quite interested in the various foundational knowledge that the Wise Goblins were obtaining from the Tower of Truth.

The Tower of Truth now contained eight or nine fundamental disciplines. The Wise Goblins were acquiring these basics and then, building on them, slowly researching and developing advanced knowledge unique to their race, thus laying the foundation for a civilization of their own.

It was still in its infancy, not even fully formed, but Lin Xiao could see from the current development of the Wise Goblins that there was potential for a new civilization to emerge.

Beyond the Wise Goblins, there wasn’t much change with the Supreme Naga and the Fishmen, except for the new offspring they had produced over the past few years.

Fortunately, the Divine Realm was expanding crazily. With the increased area, it was able to sustain more of his Clans. The Fishmen had long been allowed to freely reproduce.

Most of the territory at the edge of the now-six-times larger Divine Realm was still wasteland. Between the lush vegetation of the original Divine Realm and the wasteland was a transition area where scattered weeds stubbornly grew on the barren land.

The sea territory, also expanded sixfold, had seen a significant drop in sea level due to the expansion of the ocean, revealing numerous islands. Near the sea, Slarda was gathering all the Fishmen Magicians to summon a large number of Water Elements, connecting to the Water Elemental Plane and opening a channel to continuously pour pure water from the Water Elemental Plane into the sea of the God Realm, barely managing to prevent the seabed from drying up.

Pity that the Fishmen Magicians were of too low a rank, making the channel to the Water Elemental Plane too small and short-lived; it would cease flow after not too long, needing a day’s rest before they could continue.

By his current Divine strength, it seemed that the Fishmen Magicians’ water summoning pace couldn’t keep up with the growth rate of the Divine Realm. Lin Xiao felt that he needed to merge a few high-level cards for summoning Water Elements into a single Ancient Quality Card similar to the Flame Melting Sea. Of course, it was not possible to reach the ultra-model level of the Flame Melting Sea but having ten or more Rank 6 Super Large Water Elements, paired with the Fishmen Magicians, should suffice.

Moreover, he was already planning to carve out six new Divine Domain Spaces in the Void outside the Main Divine Realm. Water and fire elemental planes could be established first among these new Divine Domains.

No sooner said than done, he immediately exited from the Divine Realm and connected to the internal network of the Glorious Middle School Department through his privileges.

Also known as the education department’s intranet, it was limited to the students of Glorious Middle School First Level and Level 2 for exchanging and trading Cards, with no access to the external network.

Students would list their unneeded Cards on the internal trading platform, either to exchange for specific Cards they needed or to sell directly for the Power of Faith.

However, since the school term had just started and not many students were around yet, the internal platform had plenty of students interacting, but the trading platform was bereft of much substance..
