When Ji Ma activated her Skill, many tiny creatures within an eighty-meter radius began to fall from the sky. Jiang Chen extended his right hand and felt a lot of dust land on it.
Ji Ma chuckled, "This dust is simply the nanomicrobes after they've been petrified."
"So, you're quite remarkable too."
"Of course! If I hadn't run into a freak like you, I would've easily dealt with that Hagen," she replied confidently.
Jiang Chen didn't respond; he knew Hagen wasn't so easy to kill. He then activated the Primal Energy Field.
The dense fog still floated in the air; the gravity of the Primal Energy Field had no effect on it.
These tiny nanomicrobes were inherently very light, almost weightless. Even if their mass was amplified a hundredfold, their weight remained negligible.
It was like an ant, which can lift something 400 times its own weight; for them, even a hundredfold increase in gravity would be a breeze.
Jiang Chen jested, "If all the Classes in the League of Difiled Gods were like this, the Alliance of All-Gods wouldn't stand a chance."
"You don't need to worry about that," she assured.
"This is an Ancient Class, not a Class from the Difiled God Camp."
"What do you mean?"
Ji Ma explained, "It refers to Ancient Gods. For instance, consider the current war between the Alliance of All-Gods and the Underworld. If the Underworld Clan were defeated, they would have only two paths to choose from. The first is to join the Alliance of All-Gods, becoming a member of the Alliance.
"The second path is to flee far away, hide in the deepest recesses of time and space, bide their time for an opportunity, and then launch a counterattack against the Underworld.
"There were countless Divines in Ancient Times. These Divines didn't belong to either the Alliance of All-Gods or the Difiled Camp, as Divines are proud entities; they would never lower their noble heads.
"And these Divines would leave behind legacies—the so-called Classes—capable of awakening unique Talents in individuals.
"Even after a Divine's death, their God's Seal wouldn't disappear. It would be passed down, and they might even be directly reborn, eventually becoming truly powerful Gods.
"It's quite possible that the Corrupted Hero we're dealing with is a reincarnation of a God. Of course, this is just my guess," she added, "it's also possible he has acquired a legacy."
A thought struck Jiang Chen: If the other party belongs to the Difiled Camp, how would they allow such an existence? It's akin to allowing a heretic.
It was as if the entire world believed in Christianity, but suddenly someone brought in Catholicism; how could Christianity tolerate such an existence?
Ji Ma smiled and said, "It's not as serious as you make it out to be."
"If a God from the opposing side dies and someone inherits this Class, once they mature, they can acquire that God's Seal. After attaining divinity, they can join the Alliance. Such individuals are permitted on the Continent of All-Gods.
"When they reach the Ninth-stage or become a Demigod, the All-Gods might even intervene," she continued. "They would help them kill Divines so they can ascend to godhood and join the Alliance of All-Gods, thus becoming one of the Gods of the Alliance."
Jiang Chen had a sudden realization.
So that's how it is.
"I'll tell you another secret," Ji Ma went on. "If a God dies and leaves behind a legacy, and that legacy doesn't dissipate, anyone can inherit it."
"You mean, one could abandon their original Badge to inherit this new one?"
Ji Ma nodded and chuckled, "Isn't it quite unique?"
An idea struck Jiang Chen. This is a great method! Kill him, inherit this Badge, and with a hundredfold boost, wouldn't I be invincible? And in the future, I'd even have the chance to become a God!
Even if I don't use it myself, I can give it to someone else! Angelina is already a reincarnation of a God and doesn't need it. But Jiang Qiu needs it.
Despite Jiang Qiu's S-grade Class as a Shadow Assassin, which sounds very impressive, it's nothing compared to a Class like this.
The Nanobug Master—just hearing the name, you know it's far more incredible than any Shadow Assassin.
And even if a Shadow Assassin were upgraded to a Demigod, becoming a God would be very difficult because the God of Assassins already exists. Only by killing the God of Assassins and assimilating his God's Seal would that be possible.
But deicide—that plan is extremely dangerous.
Ji Ma looked at Jiang Chen and asked, "Are you tempted?"
"A little," he admitted.
"Of course you are! It's obvious we're dealing with such a person right now. Either he's a God reincarnated, or he has acquired a divine legacy. When the host dies, the Badge will drop!" she explained.
Jiang Chen asked, "Do you intend to inherit it?"
"I will not inherit it," Ji Ma replied.
"Why not?"
"We, the Medusa clan, already possess a God's Seal. And I am of Medusa bloodline—I inherently possess the petrification talent. If I abandon this to inherit another Class Badge, I could very well lose that talent."
"Your Medusa clan has a God's Seal?"
"Yes, the Medusa clan has no God to this day because that Divine died in battle long ago. So far, no one has been able to find their God's Seal. If I want to become a God, I must search for that God's Seal and become the Medusa God myself."
"I believe you will succeed," he said.
"Not necessarily. The sea is vast; I don't even know where to begin the search. Perhaps it's already hidden by someone else, or maybe it has drifted to some other place. In short, the hope is slim," she conceded.
Ji Ma walked forward. The mist in the air instantly descended, turning into dust that scattered everywhere.
The Medusa clan was indeed powerful. Their Petrification Skill could petrify everything in the vicinity. Fortunately, these nanomicrobes weren't very strong.
They were the perfect counter to this Class.
Baluo turned around, sensing the breath of death, and smiled. "An interesting Class. To be able to step into my territory... it seems I have to bring out my real skills."
Releasing his own Skill, Baluo unleashed a swarm of creatures the size of bees that filled the sky. They then charged towards Jiang Chen's position.
BUZZ...
Both Jiang Chen and Ji Ma stopped when they felt the air vibrating.
Ji Ma asked, "Do you hear that sound?"
"I do. A lot of bee-sized insects are coming this way, and it's the same on the ground. It looks like the enemy is launching an attack on us."
"No worries. My Class perfectly counters his. Once they enter my range, I can petrify them all."
At that moment, a swarm of dark shadows rushed towards them from the sky—a dense mass of bees that made one's scalp tingle.
Jiang Chen activated the Barrier.
Countless bees fell from the sky, landing helplessly and flapping their wings on the ground.
Ji Ma exclaimed, "What power is this? A Gravity Domain?"
"It's a built-in Skill," he answered.
"That is amazing," she said.
The two continued forward, sensing dozens of people ahead. As soon as these people entered the range of Jiang Chen's Barrier, all of them instantly collapsed to the ground.
Baluo watched them fall, his brows furrowed. Gravity Domain... it seems this person is quite powerful. However, my gear can negate abnormal statuses; these aren't enough to harm me.
With a sweep of his hand, Baluo released his Skill, and myriads of spiders sprang into existence behind him.
These spiders swiftly attacked towards Jiang Chen.
At that moment, as Jiang Chen and Ji Ma headed toward Baluo, they felt countless dark shadows on the ground closing in. Jiang Chen initiated [Sword Array]. As soon as the spiders entered his range, they were instantly killed by the Sword Qi.
Only the nanomicrobes were capable of absorbing energy.
