Reborn with Infinity Skill Points, I Enslaved All Universes-Chapter 256 --The God’s Design

The idea of resurrecting souls had been part of Daniel’s plan from the very beginning.

His reasoning was simple: compared to physical bodies, souls were light, compact, and most importantly—they didn’t need to eat, drink, sleep, or excrete. Not only were they energy-efficient, but also easy to organize. They could even be stacked in three dimensions if necessary.

From this perspective, Daniel’s most efficient strategy was to head back to the Undead Lands and gather as many souls as possible into one location.

That way, although his resurrection radius remained the same, the number of beings he could resurrect would increase tenfold—at the very least.

In fact, even that was likely a conservative estimate.

Possibly, the actual increase could be even far greater!

With this in mind, Daniel immediately activated [Flashback], teleporting to a vast expanse of open land in the northern frontier of human territory.

Without hesitation, he marked this area as a resurrection point.

This wasteland was enormous—comparable in size to the entirety of the human domain.

It had remained largely untouched, not because it was uninhabitable, but because there was nothing here that was particularly coveted or strategically significant. As such, the humans had never made serious efforts to develop or claim the region.

But its spaciousness made it perfect—absolutely ideal—as a mass resurrection site.

In fact, Daniel didn’t plan to stop there. He intended to set five resurrection points across human lands—in the east, west, south, north, and center.

And not just the humans—he’d already set up numerous resurrection zones for the other races as well.

Of course, no other race’s territory matched the scale of the human domain.

But still, Daniel’s journey had taken him through every corner of the Ten Thousand Races’ World.

He had no choice. The number of souls he intended to bring back was staggering.

Thankfully, he possessed the God Rank Skill [Flashback], allowing him to teleport instantaneously from one place to another.

Setting up the resurrection zones was remarkably fast, and took almost no time at all.

In mere minutes, Daniel had established over a thousand resurrection points. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

But he didn’t stop there.

He also deployed rulers and emperors from each race to the surrounding areas, assigning them to receive and reintegrate the souls as they were brought back to life.

After all, once resurrected, those souls would need time and guidance to rejoin their societies and rediscover their place in the world.

So why had Daniel set up so many resurrection points?

It was quite simple.

Under normal circumstances, a resurrection zone and its corresponding point should match perfectly. That is, one resurrection point is sufficient to handle an entire regional resurrection.

He could have just used a single point per race.

But Daniel had different intentions.

He was about to resurrect all the souls from the Undead Lands, which meant an astronomical number of beings would be brought back to life—far exceeding the capacity of any single resurrection point.

Moreover, his resurrection would not be race-specific.

Souls from all races would be revived in bulk and together.

And let’s be honest—reviving them was already an act of great benevolence. It wasn’t realistic for Daniel to also shoulder the burden of micromanaging their resettlement.

So the most practical thing to do was to let the souls return to their original territories—their homelands, their kin.

That was the motivation behind Daniel setting resurrection points across all territories.

Just as he finished, something unusual caught his attention.

Inside his inventory, he noticed a peculiar potion—a vial with an odd shape and a glowing aura.

"Wait... is this a shield potion?"

But he had no memory of acquiring it.

Daniel’s brows furrowed. He couldn’t accept the idea that someone—or something—might have accessed his backpack without his knowledge.

The potion looked valuable, yes, but the security breach was alarming.

Was this something one of his avatars had picked up?

Frowning deeply, Daniel reached out with his soul and scanned the memory logs of all his avatars, searching for a clue.

He quickly found the source.

The potion had been gifted to him by Charles.

"Charles? That scheming merchant? Why would he be so generous?"

Suspicion only deepened.

Charles wasn’t known for giving anything for free—ever.

So Daniel activated [Eye of Insight] to inspect the potion, expecting to uncover some trap or hidden cost.

But to his surprise—nothing.

No hidden curses. No fine print. No trace of malicious intent.

Instead, the item description stunned him even more:

[Divine Shield Potion]

Crafted personally by the Luck Goddess. Enhances the effectiveness of all shield-based abilities.

Daniel’s mind immediately went to his newly acquired God Rank Skill: [Counter Shield].

That ability was powerful—it could reflect all attacks back at the attacker, but only those below god level.

Against gods, Counter Shield was ineffective.

But Daniel had a gut feeling that sooner or later, he would be forced to face off against a god—maybe even multiple gods.

In that scenario, Counter Shield would be nearly useless.

But now...

This potion—this seemingly random gift—was clearly intentional.

The Luck Goddess must have known in advance what he would face.

Daniel scratched his head, then shrugged.

"Free stuff is still free stuff. Can’t hurt to try it."

He drank the potion.

The moment he did, Counter Shield evolved. Not just in function, but in name as well.

[Reflective Shield]

Effect: Generates a divine shield in front of the caster.Can block attacks from gods.Upon impact, reflects the incoming energy to any designated location.

Reading the description, Daniel’s expression twitched.

Especially when he remembered that absurd plan Jarvan had shared earlier—the one about tricking Aurelia into attacking Apollo.

"Could it be... the Luck Goddess predicted all of this in advance?"

Terrifying.

Absolutely terrifying.

That level of foresight wasn’t just strategy—it was divine manipulation.

Daniel shook his head, but didn’t stay idle.

In a blink, he arrived at the Undead Lands.

Then another blink—and he appeared in the heart of the City of the Undead.

At that moment, an elderly soul wandered across the street.

So old that his form had begun to decay into murky, indistinct wisps.

Then, Daniel appeared before him, reaching out gently and casting a cleansing light.

Holy energy burst forth—soft but radiant.

The old soul was instantly purified, his form regaining clarity and vitality.

"You’ve worked hard," Daniel said quietly, a tinge of reverence in his voice.

This soul wasn’t just anyone.

He was the First Human Emperor.

At the same time, the emperor slowly regained consciousness, rising from his hazy, confused state.

When he opened his eyes and saw Daniel standing before him, shock overtook his face.

"It’s you... my savior... it’s really you!"
