Chapter 3710: Restoration

The two Sea God priests immediately became tense again when they saw Fang Heng stop. Their hearts rose to their throats.

Did something go wrong again during the repair?

At this moment, Empress Feng Tiya was already completely reassured.

As long as the divine corruption inside the Sea God’s Trident had been removed, even if the subsequent repair failed, it would not matter—at worst, they could find another artifact master to fix it.

However, in the next instant, Feng Tiya suddenly looked toward the Sea God’s Trident again, her eyes filled once more with surprise.

Fang Heng quickly found the source of the problem.

It turned out to be a lack of "filler."

While the god corrosion had eroded the divine authority, it had also damaged the internal structure of the Sea God’s Trident. That corrupted portion of power needed something to replenish it.

Without filling it in, the weapon could still be repaired—but only in appearance. Its original core power would not be restored.

So what did the Sea God’s Trident need as filler?

Fang Heng fell silent for a few seconds, recalling the scene when he previously repaired a god artifact.

Could it be...?

To use divine authority?

He decided to try!

Fang Heng turned his wrist, producing several fragments of divine authority, and threw them toward the Sea God’s Trident.

"Whoosh!"

The fragments landed above the magic array and immediately condensed into specks of dark golden light, rapidly merging into the damaged parts of the trident.

It worked!

Feng Tiya and the two priests also reacted at once.

Divine authority!

While Fang Heng was repairing the external structure of the Sea God’s Trident, he was also using divine authority to restore the damaged internal faith energy.

Feng Tiya understood immediately and raised her hand, summoning a demigod-level divine authority weapon, which she threw into the alchemy magic array.

"Boom!!"

The divine authority melted into the array, transforming into visible, dark golden liquid that slowly merged into the damaged trident.

Feng Tiya said in a low voice, "Go, bring all the divine authority here."

"Yes!"

One of the priests quickly left to retrieve more divine authority.

"Crack... crack... crack..."

As more divine authority power was infused, the cracks on the trident began to slowly heal.

First, the fine fractures, then the larger ones—each closing one by one as deep blue light seeped out from the repaired areas.

Soon, at the broken tip of the trident, dark blue metal began to grow again under the dual catalysis of divine authority and the alchemy array, gradually extending outward from the break.

"Your Majesty, the divine authority has been brought."

Feng Tiya took the divine authority from the box and continuously threw it into the magic array.

The process lasted nearly half an hour.

Until the final crack on the Sea God’s Trident closed.

"Boom—!!"

The Sea God’s Trident suddenly erupted in a blinding blue light. The entire chamber trembled violently as a terrifying surge of divine pressure spread outward, only to be absorbed by the surrounding crystal walls.

Whoosh!

Feng Tiya flashed forward and instantly appeared beside the trident, gripping it with one hand.

At that moment, the power surging from the Sea God’s Trident suddenly retracted.

Her pupils contracted sharply.

It was done!

She could clearly feel the power flowing from within the trident.

It was far more terrifying than anything recorded in ancient texts.

After removing the god corrosion, the power once left behind by successive Sea Gods was no longer being drained—it had instead been reorganized during the restoration. Under the inheritance method, this power was now fed back into its wielder.

In addition, Fang Heng’s divine authority fragments had significantly reinforced the trident’s structural integrity.

Feng Tiya opened her eyes and examined it carefully.

The trident was deep blue throughout, its surface smooth and luminous. The three prongs were perfectly aligned, sharp at the tips, their power condensed without dispersion.

She had no doubt: it had been restored perfectly, back to its peak state.

Fang Heng stepped back and moved his stiff shoulders before looking at Feng Tiya holding the trident.

"So?"

"It’s very good. Perfect."

No one had expected Fang Heng to truly restore the Sea God’s Trident to such perfection.

Feng Tiya took a deep breath, suppressing her excitement, and said seriously, "Fang Heng, the Tide of Eternal Night will forever remember your contribution."

Fang Heng replied calmly, "No need. It was part of our agreement."

"Indeed."

Feng Tiya nodded, then raised her hand and carved a rune in the air.

The chamber space was triggered, rippling faintly.

From the distorted spatial waves, she retrieved a deep blue crystal.

The crystal floated toward Fang Heng.

"Fang Heng, this memory crystal contains the complete method of advancing the Sea God race’s god core. Of course, the method alone is not enough. I will assign a Sea God priest to guide your entire advancement process. She was once my teacher and also guided me in condensing and advancing my god core. You may use the Tide of Eternal Night’s god core at any time."

"Thank you."

"Don’t thank me. During the repair of the Sea God’s Trident, you also consumed considerable resources. We will fully provide everything needed for your god core advancement—including divine authority. This is a small token from the Tide of Eternal Night. You don’t need to be polite."

Fang Heng raised an eyebrow, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his lips. He thought Feng Tiya was quite generous.

In truth, he had only consumed a few hundred divine authority fragments at the beginning. The rest had been provided by Feng Tiya.

And god core advancement would undoubtedly require massive amounts of divine authority fragments.

A huge gain.

More importantly, he no longer had time to slowly collect them himself. Feng Tiya had saved him a great deal of time.

"Alright, then I won’t refuse."

"Good."

Feng Tiya lightly gripped the Sea God’s Trident in her hand.

For a moment, the unprecedented feedback of Sea God power stirred an impulsive thought within her.

She wanted to fight Fang Heng again.

But she quickly suppressed the idea.

Now was not the time.

Moreover, she could feel that Fang Heng had not gone all out in their previous encounter.

Feng Tiya composed herself and said, "Regarding the Sea of Nature, I have already sent envoys to meet Kandal. However, the deep-sea teleportation passage is quite far. It will take about a day for a response."

"I suggest you rest here for a day first and familiarize yourself with the god core advancement process."

Fang Heng thought about it.

That made sense.

There was no need to rush. Staying here was more beneficial.

All cultivation resources were being provided by Feng Tiya anyway. This was a rare opportunity.

If he could use this chance to advance his god core and fully integrate his three powers—holy, undead, and hell—that would be ideal.

His strength would rise to another level, giving him more confidence in future situations.

"Alright, I’ll follow your arrangement."

"Good."

Feng Tiya turned to a priest and instructed, "Arrange accommodations for Fang Heng and Lyanna. Take them to the side hall of the Tide Temple."

"Yes, Your Majesty."
