Chapter 1656: Chapter 1103: Godhood Intelligence_3
“The characteristics that distinguish the strength of the Divine Spirits partly come from their divine positions. For example, divine positions governing harvest or assassination aren’t as strong as those governing life or time.”
“Devouring each other’s divine positions is partly to expand one’s own domain.”
“If you put it that way…” Lilith furrowed her brow, “The divine position of the god of the Holy Court is likely ‘Sun’ or ‘Light,’ which is a high-level divine position.”
Wu Heng thought for a moment and shook his head, “I actually don’t think so! Based on the clues we’ve gathered, the Holy Court only rose to power after Lady Nuwa and the other Ancient Gods had issues, so its divine position may not be that high.”
Even when Lady Daji was still in the stage of being the Big Fox Woman of the Heavenly Fox Clan, she hadn’t heard of the Holy Court.
It was considered an insignificant little church on the rise, clearly not having some particularly powerful divine position.
“Makes sense.” Lilith nodded.
Wu Heng concluded, “In other words, the direction you specialize in before becoming a God is crucial. The more core the direction of your study, the greater the potential after becoming a God.”
Seeing that Philippa, Mini, and the others looked a bit confused, Wu Heng explained, “At present, aside from your own professions, before becoming a God, you must learn both the ‘Creation Scripture’ and the ‘Body Refining Technique,’ and then become a God.”
Shanaela chuckled, “You make it sound so easy!”
Philippa, thinking of something suddenly, blurted out, “Don’t worry! After we become Gods, we definitely won’t ambush you!”
Wu Heng lightly patted her on the rear, “You’re being foolish! Standing united is the right principle; the environment in the Divine Realm is likely more perilous, so why would we devour our own?”
Philippa murmured while rubbing her butt, “I was just saying it casually…!”
They chatted for a while longer.
Today’s gains were indeed not small; in any case, they learned more information about the Divine Spirits.
As it got late, they each returned to their rooms to rest.
…
Back in his room, Wu Heng sat quietly by the bed.
In his mind, he sorted through the various pieces of information he had just received one by one.
Firstly, the direction of cultivation before becoming a God directly determines the level of the divine position; the more core the divine position, the greater the power upon ascending to Godhood.
Thinking of this, a thought flashed through his mind.
The Otherworld’s systems of professions and skills are extremely finely divided. Even before the ‘Body Refining Technique’ appeared, not even Lilith knew that a universal cultivation technique existed.
Does this mean that there is some force deliberately constraining every path to advancement to make it extremely narrow?
Even if someone becomes a God by chance, their divine position is unlikely to reach a high rank?
And while the Holy Court is suppressing the Heroes from becoming Gods, it is also strengthening professional barriers… if that’s true, it makes sense.
Secondly, Gods can devour one another.
Once you become a God, it is like stepping into an endless hunting ground; you could be the hunter, but also more likely the prey in others’ eyes.
But from the murals left by Lady Nuwa, it seems that Gods can also form their own divine alliances.
Hmm… if Lilith, Xi Ligui, and others become Gods in the future, they would be my most reliable support.
In this light, it’s not time to rush into Godhood yet; otherwise, with a low-level divine position and weak foundation, becoming a God would be even more dangerous.
“It seems that before becoming a God, one must successfully cultivate both the ‘Creation Scripture’ and the ‘Body Refining Technique’.”
Having made up his mind, he directly activates the Teleportation Technique.
In the next moment, he appeared deep in the wilderness.
Wu Heng began to continue his cross-legged cultivation.
…
South Korea Base, conference room.
The sides of the long table were filled with representatives from various bases, the air a mixture of smoke and coffee scents.
The representative of New Eden tapped the table with his knuckles, breaking the silence first, “Vice Leader Qi, how have your communications with Leader Wu Heng been? Reasonably, this first batch of Professional Scrolls should be shared with each of our bases, right? We are allies, after all, coexisting up to now; we can’t be left out at such a critical moment.”
Before he had finished speaking, a woman on the opposite side, elegantly dressed and holding an unextinguished cigarette between her fingers, laughed and chimed in, her tone firm yet gentle, “Yes, our Leader specifically instructed me to express our sincerity in person. You know, people are restless now, so whoever gets the scrolls first can stabilize the situation and perhaps even go a step further… We will never forget this favor.”
“And us at the Fire God Furnace!” The Russian representative added in a deep voice, “Our Leader also mentioned this, requiring me to negotiate it; Vice Leader Qi, please don’t make it hard for me!”
More and more people joined in the conversation, the voices growing chaotic, and the emotions increasingly urgent.
“Vice Leader Qi, please give us a definitive answer!”
“Even if the numbers are limited, we’re willing to use resources to exchange!”
“Which base doesn’t lack combat power now? This is something that could change the landscape!”
Qi Hancai sat quietly in the main seat, listening calmly to all the demands, lightly tapping the thin list in front of her with her fingertips.
She lifted her eyes, her gaze sweeping over each eager face, and finally spoke slowly, “I understand everyone’s intentions.”
Her voice was not loud, but it instantly silenced the noisy conference room.
“Leader Wu Heng and I both clearly understand the significance of the scrolls, but it is precisely because of this that we must be cautious about the first batch’s users and distribution methods. It concerns not only the enhancement of combat power but also the future direction of all humanity.”
After a short pause, meeting the crowd’s intense gaze, “The Spirit Awakening Church will conduct comprehensive evaluations based on each base’s current contribution and stability. And most importantly, the users must be church followers. If they are not followers… well, they’ll have to wait until this requirement is no longer in place.”
“How long will that take?” the New Eden representative couldn’t help but ask.
Qi Hancai looked at him, still smiling, “There’s nothing that can be done about that; our Leader said they will prioritize providing them to steadfast followers. Consider this, and if you’re willing to become followers, perhaps I can help push it forward.”
After finishing, she closed the folder and smiled at everyone, “Go back and discuss it. Just give me a reply by tomorrow.”
Their eyes narrowing slightly, they also gradually stood up and left to discuss the matter with their bases.
