879 Chapter 513: Divine Duty in the Wilderness [1/3]

That jolted Richard’s interest.

The power of a god was composed of three aspects–divinity, divine power, and authority or clergy.

Life must first possess divinity to give birth to divine power.

The birth of divinity must ignite the divine fire and temper one’s body. The transformation from a mortal to a god alone could give rise to divine power.

Authority and godhood were both alternative names for rule force.

A god who couldn’t control the power of laws was a demigod, even if they had divinity and divine power.

Demigods who had not reached level 30 wouldn’t usually think about such things.

However, some existences often defied common sense–the divine soul stored in the statue of the ancient god, Renee. That was interesting.

It had yet to reach level 20. But it had already controlled a wisp of the god’s ancient tree’s rotten authority.

Both were existences that had grasped the power of gods in advance.

‘What kind of power could the Great Immortal God bring out?’

That stirred Richard’s curiosity.

The Great Immortal God relaxed a little when he saw Richard’s concern.

He was sparingly unsure now with the previous one.

He feared Richard would not take a fancy to his bargaining chip.

He would scoff in the past.

Would mortals despise the things he bestowed?

He could no longer bring up such boring thoughts before this Human Overlord.

“Hundreds of thousands of years ago, a war of gods that swept across the multiverse erupted… I forcibly participated.

“In the later stages of the battle of gods, I encountered an enemy about to become a high-level deity. He was the god of rogues.

“There is no right or wrong in the battle of gods.

“We’ve engaged in a devastating battle of gods… The battle lasted for ten years.

“In the end, the god of wanderers joined forces with the gods of the other god systems in the wilderness and broke into my kingdom.

“The enemy slaughtered me.

“I eroded the Rogue God’s power. I sealed a part of his power in my body before I died. That was the price.

“And that part of power contains a part of the Rogue God’s clergy.

“I must destroy that part of his power if the other party had killed me sternly.

“The god of rogues naturally wouldn’t surrender to a skeleton… He established this sealed land following my death. He wanted to use the time to my body so that his power would surface again.”

At this point, the Great Immortal God’s tone carried a clue of sarcasm.

“He died anyway, not long after. The idiot didn’t see that coming.

“This sealed land gradually declined following the death of its master, Rogue God. And I returned.

“I have preserved the Rogue God’s divine power I sealed in my body in this land.

“Much of it had dissipated, but the most important authority is the power of laws that you call divine duties… Still here.”

Richard hadn’t expected to find so many secrets.

He returned to his senses. His gaze turned intensely connected, and he couldn’t help it.

This spirit god had given him a bargaining chip he couldn’t refuse.

The Great Immortal God said in a deep voice, “Respected Human Overlord, I can pour this power of authority into the seal stone… The little centaur’s soul power depended on this sealed land.

“The little centaur will directly inherit this authority when its soul returns to its main body.

“So… can that satisfy you now?”

Richard calmed down. He said solemnly afterward, “This deal… It’s very fair, but how can you guarantee this would process uninterruptedly?

“What is my guarantee any harm wouldn’t follow me after you leave?”

“What is my guarantee we wouldn’t become enemies in the future?”

The two sides were now enemies, and the credibility of the transaction was the biggest problem.

Both sides did not trust each other. They were hesitant to participate.

Richard was uncertain if he could kill him despite the ancient god statue in his possession. Endless trouble would be ugly had he abandoned something and fled.

The Great Immortal God had already revealed a portion of his methods. Loreinna couldn’t deal with such a strange method even if she could enter the Shadow Plane.

The Great Immortal God was even more afraid of Richard, who had the power to kill him.

Bet? He could. But what could be the price?

The rules of the world incessantly change. Richard could never have another chance if he couldn’t leave this time.

How could he accept this?

A great future was right before him. The world would be boundless with a single step. He would still be the undying god with supreme authority and rule over billions of undead!

He would gamble even for a single chance of risk.

He had longed for this day for far too long!

The Great Immortal God’s thoughts flew. He slowly said, “Then what do you think?”

“I believe His Majesty should know the rules of the contract…”

Richard looked calmly at the other party.

“A god once signed a contract with me using this rule.”

The Great Immortal God’s soul fire shook again.

His empty eyes stared at him.

He spoke again afterward.

“It seems that you are beyond extraordinary than I imagined.”

The gods had signed a contract with him. The credibility of it would be questionable if one said it to others.

However, the weight of this person’s words was not something ordinary people could compare to.

The ancient god statue that had devoured the power of gods was the best proof.
