Crack!
After opening the darkness treasure chest, Lin Wudao discovered that there were only two items inside.
A black cloak and a broken rhombus crystal the size of a fist.
Whoosh!
God’s Spiritual Eye scanned them and information about them immediately appeared.
These two things were not ordinary.
[Name: Ghost Cloak]
[Level: Divine]
[Grade: Low]
[Description: An equipment in the darkness equipment set. When worn, one can walk in endless darkness and not be seen by mortals. Only creatures above the True God realm can detect the wearer.]
[Name: Dao Fruit of Darkness]
[Level: True God]
[Grade: Low]
[Description: 1. This is the divine Dao fruit of the God of Darkness from his countless years of cultivation to prove his Dao and become a True God with his divine position and offerings. It contains the God of Darkness’s divine rights.]
[2. Temple Gods can devour the Dao Fruit of Darkness and absorb the divine power of the God of Darkness.]
[3. The Dao Fruit of Darkness is incomplete, and only a divine right of blessing is left.]
[Remark: Only temple Gods can use the Dao fruit.]
A lot of information came into view.
After reading it, Lin Wudao’s eyes lit up.
Be it the Ghost Cloak, one of the darkness equipment set, or the Dao Fruit of Darkness that condensed the God of Darkness’s lifetime achievements, they were all divine items that could only be encountered by chance, especially the latter.
To Lin Wudao, it was simply a great tonic.
His current identity as the Qingshan Demonic God was a powerful temple God. If he could devour the God of Darkness’s Dao fruit, he would be able to wield the other party’s divine rights.
Divine rights were the most important indicator to measure the power of a temple God.
The power of a temple God depended on the number of divine rights He had.
The more divine rights a God had and the stronger the divine rights were, the stronger the God’s power would be.
Previously, when Lin Wudao killed the God of Darkness, he had been wondering why he didn’t see the other party’s Dao fruit.
Unexpectedly, it was hidden in the darkness treasure chest.
“System, how should I devour this Dao Fruit of Darkness?”
[Ding!]
[The host can use the Qingshan Demonic God’s divine right to refine and devour it. At that time, the host can absorb the divine right of blessing in the Dao Fruit of Darkness and turn it into your own divine right.]
[The host can also consume Fate Energy value and use the power of the system to forcefully transfer the divine right to yourself.]
The system responded.
Hearing this, Lin Wudao’s heart jumped.
He knew that once the system said this, it meant that his Fate Energy value would soon be depleted.
“If I refine it myself, how long will it take?”
[At least a hundred years.]
That long?
Lin Wudao shook his head. He couldn’t possibly wait a hundred years to absorb the divine right in the Dao Fruit of Darkness.
“How long does it take if I borrow the power of the system? How much Fate Energy value does it require?” He asked carefully.
[With the help of the system, the transfer of the divine right can be completed in an instant.]
“What about Fate Energy value?”
[One billion.]
Huh?
Lin Wudao’s expression darkened when he heard this number.
“Just absorbing a divine right from the Dao Fruit of Darkness requires so much Fate Energy value?”
[Of course. The so-called Dao fruit represents the most fundamental power of a God. How can it be so easy to obtain? If one wants to absorb the divine right hidden in a Dao fruit, one has to assimilate the other party’s divine power, then slowly comprehend it and turn it into his own.]
[It requires a lot of energy and time.]
[In short, the Dao fruit is far more mysterious than the host thinks. It can’t be completed overnight.]
The system explained.
Hearing this, Lin Wudao nodded silently.
Only after experiencing it would one know how difficult it was to become a temple God. Not only did it require a lot of time but also luck and opportunity.
The birth of a temple God was no easy task.
[Fate Energy value: 190,365,000]
Lin Wudao looked at the Fate Energy value on his account. There were still about 190 million. There was still a long way to go before reaching 1 billion.
At the very least, he could not hope to absorb the divine right from the Dao Fruit of Darkness any time soon.
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but secretly sigh.
Now, the number of gold-devouring beasts in his hands was increasing. The Fate Energy value he earned was simply not enough.
In the blink of an eye, it was gone.
“Right, System, since the God of Darkness has a Dao Fruit of Darkness, then logically speaking, the Qingshan Demonic God should also have a Dao fruit too. Why don’t I see it?”
[Ding! The Qingshan Demonic God has a Dao fruit as well.]
“Where is it?”
[The statue at the end of the forbidden path is the Dao fruit of the Qingshan Demonic God. It contains the divine position and all the divine rights of the Qingshan Demonic God.]
Hmm? The Dao fruit of the Qingshan Demonic God was a statue?
Lin Wudao could not help but reveal a surprised expression when he heard this.
“I see… It seems that if I want to absorb the divine power of the God of Darkness, I can only wait a little longer. I haven’t even refined the God-slaying Sword, and now there’s another Dao Fruit of Darkness. When will the whole issue with insufficient Fate Energy value end?” He sighed helplessly.
“Someone.”
After pondering for a while, Lin Wudao called out to the outside of the temple.
Very quickly, a divine servant came, kneeling devoutly under the altar.
“Greetings, Great God!”
“Go and call Tushan Mang and Wu Huan over.”
“Yes!
The divine servant bowed respectfully and left the temple as fast as he could.
Whoosh!
A moment later, along with a dazzling stream of light, Tushan Mang and Wu Huan arrived at Qingshan Temple on a spiritual boat.
“Greetings, Great God!”
“Greetings, Great God!”
The two of them kowtowed devoutly.
“Get up.”
A majestic voice sounded.
“Tushan Mang, how is the formation of the Qingshan Divine Guards coming along?”
” Great God, according to your oracle, all 100 Qingshan Divine Guards have been recruited. Everyone’s cultivation has reached the Divine Vein realm. Among them, there are thirty-six in the final stage of the Divine Vein realm and sixty-four in the mid-stage.”
Tushan Mang reported truthfully.
After listening, Lin Wudao nodded in satisfaction.
The current strength of the Qingshan tribe had indeed improved a lot. Compared to the Leishan tribe and the Lieyang tribe, they were only lacking peak combat strength.
However, this was not difficult for Lin Wudao at all.
Three days later, as long as he bestowed divine grace upon them, the strength and foundation of the Qingshan tribe would soar again. At that time, neither the Leishan tribe nor the Lieyang tribe would be a match for them.
“Well done! Tushan Mang, based on your performance, I have decided to reward you.”
With that, a beam of divine light descended, turning into an ancient sword that looked like a scorching sun, as well as a palm-sized jade bottle.
“This is the Great Sun Sword, a high-grade Extreme Dao ancient spiritual weapon. It can be augmented with the power of the sun, unleashing powerful attacks. The jade bottle, on the other hand, contains a spiritual item nurtured by heaven and earth, the Thousand Year Spirit Marrow. After swallowing and refining it, one’s mortal body can be forged into a spiritual body.”
“As the Commander of the Qingshan Divine Guards, you represent my dignity and power. Once you’re outside, you can’t embarrass me. Therefore, these are all my rewards and blessings for you. I hope you can do your best and live up to my expectations.”
His majestic voice resounded throughout the temple.
Thump!
Hearing this, Tushan Mang immediately kneeled, his eyes filled with joy and excitement as he kowtowed heavily.
“Thank you for your mercy, Great God! I will definitely not let you down!”
He kowtowed sincerely.
“As long as you sincerely believe in me, I will not treat you unfairly. Three days later, I will descend to the mortal world again and perform a more profound Divine Baptism for the people of the Qingshan tribe to help them improve their aptitude and cultivation. Refine and absorb this bottle of Thousand Year Spirit Marrow as soon as possible, and three days later, you will surely be able to soar into the sky and reach the Divine Pedestal realm.”
“Yes!
Tushan Mang’s eyes were filled with endless fanaticism and anticipation. He was even more reverent towards the Qingshan Great God.
Seeing this scene, Wu Huan was extremely envious.
Now, as the Commander of the Qingshan Divine Guards, Tushan Mang’s position and power in the Qingshan tribe were only second to the Qingshan Great God and the High Priest Tushan Cangyue.
This was what he yearned for.
However, Wu Huan knew that he couldn’t be compared to Tushan Cangyue and Tushan Mang. In his mind, it was already a great fortune for him to join the Qingshan Divine Guards.
“Wu Huan!
Just as he was letting his imagination run wild, a dignified voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
Hearing this, Wu Huan quivered.
“Great God!
He quickly prostrated himself on the ground, ready to listen to the oracle. At the same time, his heart was filled with anticipation.
“Wu Huan, you were lucky enough to obtain the Eye of the Divine Soul, which shows that your talent is peerless. If you can display it well, your future will be limitless. In view of your ability and loyalty, I have decided to grant you the title of Night Emissary of Qingshan Temple. You will walk in the darkness on behalf of me and listen to everything in the world and the thoughts of all living beings. From now on, you will be my eyes and ears in the human world.”
As he spoke, Lin Wudao waved his hand and gave Wu Huan the Ghost Cloak that he had just obtained.
“After wearing this Ghost Cloak, you can walk in the darkness of the world with no worries of being exposed. Creatures below the True God realm will not be able to detect your existence. I hope that you will not disappoint me in the future,” Lin Wudao said calmly.
“Thank you for your mercy, Great God! I will do my best to serve you forever!”
Wu Huan kowtowed heavily.
An unprecedented excitement appeared in his eyes.
The Night Emissary of the Temple.
Although his identity and status were not as high as the High Priest and the Commander, he was still above the many people of the Qingshan tribe.
At the same time, it also meant that he had obtained the approval of the Qingshan Great God. In the future, he would definitely bear heavy responsibility!
At the thought of this, Wu Huan felt a surge of emotions in his heart, and the blood in his body began to boil.
Just like Tushan Mang, he admired the Qingshan Great God to the extreme. His eyes were filled with boundless fanaticism.
Lin Wudao saw their reactions and was very satisfied.
“Alright, if there’s nothing else, you can leave. I’ve already asked the High Priest to give an oracle. The Divine Baptism ceremony will be held in three days.”
After saying that, he retracted his divine might.
In an instant, Qingshan Temple returned to its usual peace..
