The Era of Gods

Chapter 306: Chapter 306: Goodness, Have I Turned Into a Monster?

The summoned Asura Nagas were in high spirits and filled with an intense zest for battle. Oftentimes, before the evil spirit entities even managed to charge at them, the Asura Nagas would take the initiative to charge forward, swiftly slaughtering all nearby evil spirit entities.

The Wise Gnomes and Elements often didn’t even have the chance to take action.

With the assistance of numerous subordinates, Lin Xiao’s speed of collecting the cores of the evil spirit entities skyrocketed, able to accumulate about seventeen or eighteen units of Creation Energy and over a million Hero experience in a single day, which was very satisfying.

This was considering that the frequency of evil spirit entities appearing was already quite high, with about a hundred and seventy to eighty evil spirit entities per day not considered a small number.

In just over half a month, Lin Xiao had accumulated as much as three hundred units of Creation Energy, and coupled with the ninety-seven units he had previously accumulated, the total had exceeded four hundred units.

At the same time, the experience he had amassed had long satisfied the leveling-up criteria, and his Hero Level had also risen to Fifth Level. To advance to the next level, Sixth Level Hero, a total of one hundred million experience was needed—an extremely exaggerated amount.

Contemplating his five strategic attribute points, Lin Xiao changed his previous plan of not adding intelligence, and instead invested them all into Constitution.

Previously, he added to Intelligence because he had not summoned his Clan; now that his Clan had descended, with a bunch of Formal Wise Gnome Mages at hand, there was basically no need for him to take action himself.

Constitution could genuinely enhance the life essence of the Clan; you had to add as much to it as possible.

After attributing the points, Lin Xiao’s strategic attributes were:

Constitution: 7+5+8+2=22 points

Strength: 2+5+8+2=17 points

Agility: 3+5+4=12 points

Intelligence: 7+5=12 points.

A Constitution exceeding twenty points could instantly elevate an ordinary person’s life Constitution to the Sixth Level Transcendent Level.

Coupled with the formidable seventeen points of Strength and twelve points of Agility, if he could summon the Small Fishmen, with the strategic attribute bonuses he possessed, each would have a Constitution and Strength at the Sixth Level Transcendent Level. They might not be able to defeat a true Sixth Level life form in a one-on-one fight, but the Small Fishmen were numerous. Wouldn’t a few more be able to swarm and kill?

For now, the Small Fishmen had not been summoned. The insufficient population was one aspect, and the inability to afford their upkeep was another.

The formal members of the Clan needed sustenance.

Right now, he was ordering the Mages to cast spells, establishing a temporary fortress at the edge of the altar, ready for a prolonged battle.

He felt that his stay on this Floating Island might last more than a month, so he had to prepare beforehand.

While letting the Clans cooperate in exterminating evil spirit entities daring to assault the Floating Islands, Lin Xiao sat down cross-legged in the center of the camp, his will once again immersed in the Creation Magic Cube.

Now, with over four hundred units of Creation Energy at his disposal, an unprecedented wealth, he didn’t feel very secure and needed to contemplate how to enhance his strength.

The specific methods of enhancement included strengthening treasures and enhancing the core of the barracks—these two kinds.

The core of the barracks could still be used after he summoned his Clan, as long as there were slots available to equip it, but he only had a handful of Gold Coins now, so this option was excluded. He could only choose to strengthen treasures.

After all, treasures would also be effective on the Clan.

The most critical, naturally, was the Crystal Heart, a Level 4 treasure.

What Lin Xiao valued most about this treasure was not the summoning or the vast array of strategic attribute enhancements, but rather the magical resistance, immunity to negative status effects, and the removal of lethal areas.

Now he wanted to invest Creation Energy into it once again to reinforce the magic resistance from 75%, directly achieving Magic Immunity.

This magical resistance didn’t merely refer to damaging spells, but also included all sorts of magic forms like the natural extreme cold, scorching heat, freezing, internal explosion, instant death, etc., associated with Ghosts. Numerous magic damages, if not completely immune, are practically the same as having no immunity—the gap is quite substantial.

It’s like with these evil spirit entities, whether it’s the impact of the evil will or the black fluid that constitutes their body, etc., all are considered magic damage, and moreover, it’s particularly malicious damage. Lin Xiao wouldn’t feel assured without complete immunity.

The promotion process was quite simple; after all, he was now wealthy and could afford it, spending a full twenty units of Creation Energy. The Crystal Heart was directly promoted to Fifth Level, a truly supreme treasure.

Treasure: Crystal Heart: Fifth Level Treasure.

Attribute One: Constitution +15, Strength +15, Magic Immunity, Remove all Lethal Areas.

Attribute Two: Before each battle begins, choose—

(1) Summon a Crystal Puppet enhanced by Hero Level * 100, thereafter summon once every half hour. The enhanced Crystal Puppet is a Sixth Level troop, lasting forty-eight hours.

(2) Summon a Crystal Giant of Hero Level * 20, thereafter summon once every half hour. The Crystal Giant is a Seventh Level troop, lasting forty-eight hours.

Note: Once a summoning target is selected, it cannot be changed until all summoned entities disappear.

Then, he spent another five units of Creation Energy to upgrade both the Vampire’s Fang and the Speed Shoes to the top level 4 treasures; there was no need to elevate them to Level 5.

Vampire’s Fang: Fourth Level Treasure.

Attribute One: Constitution +5, Life Force +50%, Strength +5.

Attribute Two: Essence Extraction, converting 25% of damage dealt into health, endurance, and energy during an attack.

Speed Shoes: Level 4 treasure.

Attribute One: Agility +8, immune to any slowing effects.

Attribute Two: Before each battle begins, automatically cast an undismissible Advanced Group Attack Speed on all troops, lasting thirty minutes.

After equipping the treasure, Lin Xiao’s consciousness re-entered the Magic Cube, and with a thought, a tangled mass of transparent threads appeared before him.

Naturally, these were not real threads, but a sliver of Power of Laws obtained from killing those Evil Spirit Entities, which had accumulated into such a large cluster over time.

Stroking his chin in thought, he willed the Magic Cube within the Sea of Gods to slowly rotate, and a stream of transparent flames spurted out from the crevices of the Magic Cube structure, along with mysterious Law auras.

Under the influence of the Magic Cube’s power, these scattered Laws began to fuse.

In the process, he tried infusing Creation Energy, integrating it unit by unit.

Since obtaining the Magic Cube, this Creation Energy could strengthen almost anything, which was quite miraculous. He was quite looking forward to seeing what changes would occur when this substance was fused into the cluster of Law forces.

Anything involving Laws was extraordinary, and in this regard, Lin Xiao was not stingy. After all, with plenty of Creation Energy at his disposal, he had the capital to experiment.

One point, three points, five points, ten points, twenty points, the Creation Energy poured in like running water, and he didn’t even blink.

Yet, this substance seemed like a bottomless pit, swallowing fifty units of Creation Energy as if it were nothing, showing no reaction at all.

Really, Lin Xiao had been closely monitoring the changes within the Magic Cube, and infusing fifty units of Creation Energy felt like it could power up a low-level Ancient Treasure to a high level in one go, but there was no stirring at all.

This made him wonder, causing a hint of trepidation.

But since he had already infused fifty units of Creation Energy, having spent so much, he wanted to see some results.

“I don’t believe this, if you can, then swallow it all!”

Checking his remaining Creation Energy, over three hundred units, Lin Xiao gritted his teeth and continued.

More Creation Energy was absorbed by the bottomless pit, and an unprecedented consumption of Creation Energy took place. This clump of Law forces, like a ball of yarn, had fused into one entity. To his sensing, a ping-pong ball-sized black hole formed, with an endless stream of Creation Energy encircling it like the accretion disk of a black hole.

He didn’t know how long it had been, as the continuous flow of Creation Energy almost numbed him. At one moment, the black hole in the center of the Magic Cube suddenly stopped accepting Creation Energy.

Lin Xiao immediately became alert, quickly calculated the Creation Energy, and found it to be precisely one hundred units.

There were no abnormalities before the last infusion of Creation Energy, but after reaching exactly one hundred, it stopped accepting more. The black hole began to shrink and collapse into a minuscule singularity that was invisible to the eye.

Then…

It exploded with a bang as if the universe was born.

Infinite Chaos Energy mixed with white light spread instantly, filling the entire space within the Magic Cube. At that instant, Lin Xiao’s consciousness within the Magic Cube space lost awareness. In a blurred state, he felt countless fragments of Laws being released from the singularity.

His consciousness shattered into dust and merged within the Magic Cube.

If it were another entity, the dissipation of will would naturally occur.

But with the protection of the Magic Cube, Lin Xiao’s Divine Consciousness Willpower was well preserved within the Magic Cube space, echoing back and forth within the Magic Cube space due to the shockwave of the singularity explosion.

In the Divine Realm, Lin Xiao’s True Body, who was sitting on the central divine throne of the God Country, suddenly trembled. A burst of invisible light mixed with unseen waves radiated from his head, appearing as if something inside his head had exploded. A mysterious wave of Laws descended.

In an instant, he realized what had happened. With a thought, he burned a hundred points of Divine Power, transforming it into a Divine Power Barrier that bound himself and the divine throne together, blocking the invisible light and waves erupting from his head.

“What big event has my incarnation caused now?”

From the invisible waves and light sprouting from his mind, he sensed countless jumbled Laws and knowledge beyond measure, all spurting out.

In that instant, he felt as though he had entered the legendary state of Epiphany, with his understanding of various Laws and Rules advancing rapidly, at an astonishing pace.

In a fraction of a millisecond, the Truth Divine Position, which he had struggled to condense for so long, took shape.

Indeed, like the Creationist position, because he had not yet become a Demigod and had not yet condensed it, but the moment he became a Demigod, it would immediately take form.

But that was not the end, for he had not yet fully digested this wealth of knowledge, not even one-tenth of it.

A thousandth of a second is ten times longer than the blink of an eye, and in that brief moment, all knowledge was digested.

It couldn’t really be considered digestion; it was more like it had been brutally crammed in, regardless of whether he could comprehend it or not.

Fortunately, he was now a Divine Being and located in the heart of the Divine Realm, with the entire Divine Realm bearing the pressure and the Magic Cube providing protection; hence, he fused the knowledge of the Laws and Rules emitted by the singularity explosion without mishap, thereby obtaining…
