Global Deities: Rising as Wood Elves' God
Chapter 97 - 96: Divine Exclusive Talent: Resonance of All Things
School let out in the afternoon, and Zhang Yi hurried home. Since it was only four o’clock, his parents weren’t back yet.
All the way home, Zhang Yi was filled with anticipation, wondering what kind of reward his Golden Finger would grant him after his Clan sacrificed the Divine Realm Crystals. The moment he got home, he went straight to his bedroom, entered the Divine Domain Connection Pod, and logged into the Divine Realm.
[System]: Logging into the Ten Thousand Realms Divine Net...
[System]: Identity verification successful...
[System]: Consciousness descending into your Divine Realm...
[System]: Welcome, great God of Nature and Elf God, to your Divine Realm!
The first thing Zhang Yi did upon entering the Divine Realm was to issue an Oracle to all, allowing every member of his Clan to hear the will of the great God of Nature so they could begin the sacrificial ceremony. He could hardly wait.
As for the Clan members who had returned from the battlefield, their first order of business was to expand the altar and the ritual grounds. The previous altar and the tribal plaza could no longer accommodate so many of them.
Zhang Yi’s consciousness descended upon the Divine Realm. The Wood Elves, Fire Elves, and Mountain Dwarves had long been ready, already gathered at the expanded altar and around the tribal plaza.
When the Divine Projection that Zhang Yi created by spending Faith Value appeared in the sky, the Clan members below witnessed the scene and exclaimed in awe, "The great God of Nature has appeared!"
Holding her Magic Staff, Elf High Priest Shamiel saw the Divine Projection of the great God of Nature appear and led the Elves in kneeling.
"To thank our great God of Nature for giving us shelter, food, a home, and peace, we, the entire Clan, now present our offerings to Him!"
Then, under the direction of Elf High Priest Shamiel, the first offerings were made: the Talent Crystals from the various Treasure Chests discovered on the Broken Continent. The Talent Crystals from the Black Iron Treasure Chests were offered first.
[Event]: Your Clan, the Wood Elves, Fire Elves, and Mountain Dwarves, has just held a grand sacrificial ceremony!
[Your Clan has sacrificed a large quantity of Talent Crystal fragments of Lower Class Laws. The Golden Finger has refreshed and now presents three options for the host to choose from!]
[Option 1]: Strengthen x5. Quintuple the quantity of all sacrificed Talent Crystals!
[Option 2]: Condense the High Level Divine Skills "Call the Wind and Summon the Rain" and "Thunderstorm"! Simultaneously obtain 0.1% of the Upper-tier Laws, Water Law and Thunder Law!
[Option 3]: Top Level Natural Divine Position 0.1% (Synthesis Option). Smelt all Lower Class Laws to condense 0.1% of the Natural Divine Position!
Zhang Yi looked at the three options provided, and [Option 1] was the first he eliminated.
Given that [Option 2] and [Option 3] offered Upper-tier and Top Level Laws respectively, they were the clear frontrunners. Upper-tier and Top Level Laws held an absolute suppressive power over Lower Class Laws. This suppressive power wasn’t calculated by the amount of authority one held in a Divine Position; it was simply the complete suppression of a lower-tier existence by a higher-tier one.
It was better not to bite off more than he could chew. There was no use in having so many miscellaneous authorities from different Divine Positions. Therefore, [Option 1] was out.
The difficulty in choosing between [Option 2] and [Option 3] lay in the fact that [Option 2] offered more. In addition to two High Level Divine Skills, it also gave 0.1% authority over two Upper-tier Laws: the Water Law and the Thunder Law. 0.1% of two different Upper-tier Laws was undeniably precious—a starting point that many True Gods could only dream of.
High Level Divine Skills were Divine Arts that could only be cast after one had grasped a Law to a certain degree and developed a deep understanding of it. The Divine Arts Zhang Yi currently possessed were the lowest-level kind, cast simply by understanding and simulating Magic. They didn’t require the support of a Divine Position or its authority.
After much consideration, he chose [Option 3].
The authority over 0.1% of two Upper Class Laws is certainly tempting, but compared to that, isn’t the 0.1% authority over the Top Level Natural Law from [Option 3] even more so? Besides, it’s not like I can’t comprehend the two High Level Divine Skills from [Option 2] on my own. As long as my mastery over a Divine Position’s authority is deep enough, I’ll naturally comprehend new Divine Arts in the process. Looking at it this way, the Natural Divine Position is the Top Level Divine Position I’ve already decided to pursue. Choosing [Option 3] will allow me to build a better foundation for my future.
After Zhang Yi confirmed his choice, the synthesis option for [Option 3] disappeared.
The next moment, a multicolored crystal appeared before Zhang Yi. It seemed to contain all the phenomena of the universe, shimmering with a vast spectrum of colors. The moment the multicolored crystal appeared, Zhang Yi felt an incomparably alluring aura emerge. It tempted him, urging him to quickly merge the crystal into his body.
Although Zhang Yi hadn’t spent Faith Value to manifest a physical body in the Divine Realm, his Divine Soul was present. The very purpose of condensing the authority of a Divine Position was for fusion, so he no longer resisted the feeling. Following the impulse, he merged the multicolored crystal into his being.
[DING!]
[Authority for a Top Level Divine Position has appeared in the Divine Realm. It is recommended to deal with it as soon as possible!]
[DING!]
Before the Divine Realm’s prompt could finish, Zhang Yi’s consciousness was instantly pulled into a strange space.
Here, he witnessed ten thousand years in a single glance.
He saw countless towering ancient trees shoot up from the ground, only to turn to mud in the next moment. Trickling streams swelled into rushing rivers, only to change course in an instant; vast oceans turned to mulberry fields in a flash. The changing seasons played out like a fast-forwarded film, the cycle of Reincarnation clearly visible...
"Is this... the true essence of Nature?!"
Myriad phenomena unfolded within Zhang Yi’s Divine Soul, and the once-blurry Natural Law suddenly became clear and tangible.
Zhang Yi instinctively reached out, and a wisp of emerald Divinity flowed around his fingertips.
[DING!]
[Congratulations to the host for successfully fusing with "Natural Divine Position 0.1%"!]
