The Era of Gods Chapter 284 – 284 Chapter Eternal Fire

Chapter 284: 284 Chapter Eternal Fire

Just as the core vanished, the eyes of the Titan Giant Leader changed, and a completely unavoidable force descended. Lin Xiao fell flat on the ground as the Titan Giant reached down, and a cage made of lightning crashed down from the sky, trapping him within. The thunderous voice made his spirit go numb: “Human, you are courting death!”

The lightning cage trapped him but did not otherwise harm him. Although the Titan Giant looked at him with vigilance, it did not take any further action.

Lin Xiao let out a sigh of relief and returned his consciousness to the Sea of Gods, where he saw the vast Creation Rubik’s Cube slowly turning. With every rotation, a wisp of transparent airflow sprayed out from the gaps in the Magic Cube.

After rotating three times, Lin Xiao’s consciousness entered the interior of the Creation Rubik’s Cube. At a glance, he saw a mass of experience energy and Creation Energy that was tenfold more abundant than before, as well as a hint of… something he couldn’t describe at that moment.

The monsters on this floating island were more than ten times stronger than those on previous islands, and the converted experience and Creation Energy were also tenfold, amounting to a whole ten thousand experience and one- tenth of Creation Energy.

Besides that, there was also a strange trace of something that seemed like… the Power of Laws?

On this strange trace, he sensed a hint of the power of laws.

That power was very odd, something he had never seen before, and he didn’t know which law it originated from.

He did not dare to try it personally because he felt an extreme danger emanating from this hint of the Power of Laws.

First, he absorbed the experience and Creation Energy, and then he used the Creation Rubik’s Cube to refine this strand of the Power of Laws that contained unknown danger.

Nothing unexpected happened during this process. Although the substance was very resilient, it had no resistance against the grinding power of the Creation Rubik’s Cube and was finally reduced to a strand of the purest Power of Laws without any impurities.

As his consciousness probed this pure Power of Laws, the substance instantly merged into his consciousness, and the next second, an enigmatic vision flashed before him.

“What is this?”

Lin Xiao’s eyes became sharp in an instant.

In the vision that had just flashed by, he seemed to have seen something incredible.

But it was just a fleeting fragment, too short for him to be sure of what he had seen.

“Perhaps I can merge with more.”

Lin Xiao slowly opened his eyes and instantly felt the Titan Giant Leader’s scrutinizing gaze, filled with vigilance, surprise, and confusion. He asked in a deep voice:

“Human, what did you see?”

He spread his hands and said:

“I have completely destroyed it.”

The Titan Giant Leader shook his head and said:

“Such evil is extremely cunning and hard to annihilate. I can’t be sure whether you’re affected now. For safety’s sake, you cannot enter the Sanctuary Altar for refuge.”

“Of course!”

Lin Xiao understood this point well, as he would have done the same. He said:

“Now, unable to prove I am affected, may I continue to exterminate them?”

The Titan Giant Leader silently watched his face, which had already undergone a transformation, and after a moment of silence, he said slowly:

“You may continue, but I will watch you at all times. If I detect any sign of influence, please forgive me for I will have to kill you.”

Emmm…

Such high vigilance.

But he still nodded firmly.

After all, with the Creation Rubik’s Cube, he was certain he could completely eradicate the evil will, so there definitely wouldn’t be a problem.

Lin Xiao touched his rough face and was left somewhat speechless; this transformation would not recede in a short while, and he estimated that in the eyes of the Titan Giant, he already seemed affected.

With the Titan Giant Leader’s permission, he did not hold back any longer. After waiting a while, he summoned another batch of Crystal Puppets and began to actively confront the nearby Evil Spirit Entities.

Not far from the altar, he lured these Evil Spirit Entities over so the Titan Giant on the altar could strike them down, and he would pick up the pieces.

If this were in some games, his actions would definitely incur the penalty of the balance system, such as no experience or drops, or perhaps the BOSS going berserk. But here, there was no such issue. As long as he was careful not to die, he could continuously farm monsters by leveraging the power of the Titan Giants.

Unfortunately, there weren’t many of these creatures, and they were scattered all around. He could only guard one side, encountering three or four of them per hour. He could not possibly keep watch twenty-four hours a day, so he could only accumulate about five or six units of Creation Energy and five or six hundred thousand experience each day—two or three times more than before.

However, the Power of Laws was slowly accumulating. Little by little, it had grown from a hint to a thread.

While nothing could be discerned right now, he believed that gradually accumulating would eventually lead to a qualitative change.

After all, based on the previous rules, he might have to stay on this island for another month.

However, only six or seven days had passed when a very serious problem confronted Lin Xiao—he had no soldiers left.

The monsters that appeared on this floating island were too powerful; the troops he had initially recruited had mostly perished over these few days. Although there were a large number of troops accumulated in his barracks for recruitment, he couldn’t summon any without money.

The battle-summoned crystal puppets, although being Sixth Level troops and in no small number, were too cumbersome. The key issue was that their mode of attack was purely physical and entirely ineffective against these monsters.

Of course, this did not mean he had no way to survive. Even without a single soldier, with the Titan Giants from the altar taking action, he could still pick up the pieces.

But this method was too inefficient; without troops to lure enemies, the efficiency had evidently dropped significantly—those were experience and Creation Energy at stake.

Lin Xiao thought long and hard and came to only one solution, which was to open the Divine Realm and summon the God Realm Kin.

This opportunity was too good; killing ten would steadily yield him one unit of Creation Energy. An opportunity like this, to accumulate a large amount of Creation Energy, was simply too rare.

He wasn’t one to hesitate, and once he had this idea and thought it through carefully, he made the decision to summon his Kin.

The summoning method was quite simple: remove the barracks from the hero barracks slots, freeing up the slots, and set the first slot to the Asura Naga summoning gate, the second slot to the Wise Goblins summoning gate, the third slot to the Fire Element summoning gate, and the fourth slot to the Air Element summoning gate.

The Small Fishman, Dwarves, and the Water and Earth Elements were not included in the summoning list.

Summoning the God Realm Kin had an advantage over the creatures from the Ruins of Myriad: it did not consume Gold Coins or resources, only population.

Lin Xiao, now at Level 4 Hero Level, commanded a population of thirty thousand.

The population occupied by the God Realm Kin was roughly the same as that of the troops, with minor adjustments based on the species’ physique; for instance, a First Level creature occupies one population slot, a Level 2 occupies two, a Level 3 four, and a Fifth Level Asura Naga occupies eight, although the Wise Goblins of the same level have much smaller statures and only occupy four population slots.

Lin Xiao summoned a thousand Sixth Level Asura Nagas in one breath, twenty Seventh Level Asura Nagas, two thousand Formal Wise Gnome Mages, two thousand Fire Elements, and five hundred Air Elements.

Four portals connecting to the Divine Realm were opened, and a ferocious dragon head emerged from within—it was a Seventh Level Supreme Naga.

“Oh Supreme and Almighty The Master of Truth!”

As they came forth, they immediately took positions on Lin Xiao’s left and right, assuming a protective stance.

This projection was by default considered a Divine Envoy of the God of Truth.

The reason why he dared not claim to be an incarnation of the God of Truth was mainly that the incarnation was too weak; he might even lose to a Seventh Level Asura Naga, and revealing the truth could lead to unforeseeable consequences.

There were bloody lessons to learn from; the experiences accumulated by the predecessors in the Main World over many years allowed them to avoid various mistakes.

After all, not all Divine Territory Players’ Kin were so devout, and you’d dare to trust a race of devout Fanatic Believers.

Based on the level of devotion in Lin Xiao’s Clan, such an issue was not likely to occur, but it didn’t mean the Kin of other Divine Territory Players were equally devout.

As more and more Asura Nagas were summoned, the twenty Seventh Level Asura Nagas, his devout Priests and also leaders in the Divine Realm, started organizing the summoned Kin into ranks.

The Asura Nagas were positioned at the front, their primary role to hold off the enemy, while the true damage dealers were the Mages, Fire Elements, and Air Elements.

Although the potency of their regular spells couldn’t compare to strategic magic, they had the advantage of great numbers and diversity. Combined, their power was quite formidable.

Once all the Kin had arrived, Lin Xiao finally felt at ease.

He had the Mages and Priests bestow various BUFFs on the Asura Nagas, including enchanting spells like the Flame Sword or Added Sacred Power that could imbue weapons with elemental and holy powers, harming spiritual entities, allowing the Asura Nagas to also inflict significant damage on these monsters.

It is worth mentioning that the Kin he summoned were all true living beings, and the Constitution bonuses in the Hero Strategic Attribute were real enhancements to the essence of life, unlike the former troops that only received defense and resistance enhancements and didn’t benefit the essence of life, since those troops were Alchemy Creatures lacking vital essence.

Put simply, the Hero Strategic Attribute was more effective when applied to Kin than to troops.

After a round of BUFF enhancements, an Asura Naga, excited, charged at an Evil Spirit Entity not far away. The two huge beings collided with substantial force, a white light emanated from the Asura Naga’s body, repelling the black liquid and aura from the Evil Spirit Entity.

In a head-on collision, the powerful Evil Spirit Entity staggered backward, and the Supreme Naga, with a swift motion, brought down the Great Guan Dao; a gleam of the sharp blade flashed, bisecting the Evil Spirit Entity that not even a group of crystal puppets could hold back, right in two.

A blow that didn’t hit the core wouldn’t be fatal, but it was merely a matter of a few more strikes.

The Asura Naga, fused with the complete bloodline of the High-level Dragon Clan, had almost no equal in close combat of the same rank. Even a real Dragon, in a direct physical confrontation, couldn’t overpower them.

As creatures of Sixth or Seventh Level, these Alchemy Creatures stood no chance against them.

Well, to be fair, these Evil Spirit Entities were not weak. Strictly speaking, in terms of strength and constitution, they were slightly inferior to behemoths like the Titan Giants or Giant Dragon Giants, but were formidable solely due to size. Not to mention the strategic attribute bonuses and various BUFFs, just the combat experience alone—Asura Nagas who regularly mingled in the ancient arena—was light-years beyond them.

With a comprehensive advantage, they could easily determine the outcome of a confrontation in a single encounter.
