Chapter 289: Chapter 289 Extraordinary Magic Network

The summoned Asura Nagas were exuberant in battle, fervently eager. Often, they would charge forward before the evil spirit entities could even get close, quickly exterminating all nearby evil spirits.

The Wise Goblins and Elements often didn’t even have a chance to take action.

With numerous subordinates to assist, Lin Xiao’s speed of collecting the cores of evil spirit entities soared, accumulating seventeen or eighteen units of Creation Energy and over a million hero experience per day, which was exceedingly gratifying.

This was given the already high frequency of evil spirit entities, with about one hundred and seventy or eighty of them appearing each day, that was not a small number.

In just over half a month, Lin Xiao had amassed a total of three hundred units of Creation Energy, which, along with the previous ninety-seven units, totaled over four hundred units.

Simultaneously, the experience he accumulated had long met the standards for leveling up, and his Hero Level had risen to Fifth Level. The next level, Sixth Level hero, required a whole one hundred million experience, an incredibly exaggerated amount.

Considering his five strategic attribute points, Lin Xiao revised his previous approach of not adding to intelligence and instead allocated all points to constitution.

Previously, he didn’t add to intelligence because he hadn’t summoned his clan yet. Now that his clan had arrived, with a host of Formal Wise Gnome Mages, he basically didn’t need to act personally.

Constitution could directly strengthen the vital essence of his clan, and he needed to add as much as he could to this attribute.

After allocating the attributes, Lin Xiao’s strategic attributes were:

Constitution: 7+5+8+2=22 points

Strength: 2+5+8+2=17 points

Agility: 3+5+4=12 points

Intelligence: 7+5=12 points.

With a constitution over twenty points, he could instantly elevate an ordinary person’s physical vitality to the Transcendent Level of Sixth Level.

Together with a high strength of seventeen points and twelve points of agility, if he could summon the Small Fishmen, under his strategic attribute enhancement, each of them would possess the constitution and strength of the Transcendent Level of the Sixth Level. They may not be able to defeat a true Sixth Level being in a one-on-one fight, but the Small Fishmen were numerous. Couldn’t a group of them overwhelm the enemy?

The Small Fishmen had not yet been summoned; the insufficient population was one reason, and temporarily being unable to afford their upkeep was another.

The actual members of his clan required sustenance.

Right now, he was having Mages cast spells to build a temporary fortification at the edge of the altar, preparing for a protracted battle.

He felt that he might stay on this Floating Island for more than a month, so he needed to prepare in advance.

Letting the clan cooperate in exterminating any evil spirit entities that dared to charge onto the Floating Island, Lin Xiao then sat down cross-legged in the center of the camp, his will once again entering the Creation Magic Cube.

With over four hundred units of Creation Energy at his disposal, an unprecedented wealth, he didn’t feel entirely at ease, and he knew he had to find a way to enhance his strength.

The specific methods of enhancement were nothing more than strengthening artifacts or enhancing the core of the barracks. The core of the barracks could still be used after he summoned his clan, as long as there were slots available, but with only a single digit amount of Gold Coins, that option was out of the question; he could only choose to enhance artifacts.

After all, artifacts could also affect his clan members.

The most important, naturally, was the Crystal Heart, a Level 4 artifact.

What Lin Xiao valued most about this artifact were not its summoning capabilities or the extensive strategic attribute bonuses, but its magic resistance, immunity to negative statuses, and the ability to Remove Lethal Area abilities.

Now, he was going to invest Creation Energy again to enhance the magic resistance from 75% and directly make it into Devil Resistance.

This magic resistance was not just about offensive spells. Ghost abilities like extreme cold, scorching heat, freezing, internal explosion, instant death, and so on, were all forms of magic, and many types of magical damage without complete Magic Immunity were as good as none at all, and the difference was substantial.

It was just like how the attacks of these evil spirit entities, whether the impact of an evil will or the black liquid forming their bodies, counted as magic damage, and especially malicious damage at that. Without complete immunity, he didn’t feel safe.

The upgrade process was quite straightforward; being wealthy, he smashed twenty units of Creation Energy into the Crystal Heart, promoting it directly to Fifth Level, a true supreme artifact.

Artifact: Crystal Heart: Fifth Level artifact.

Attribute One: Constitution +15, Strength +15, Magic Immunity, Remove All Lethal Areas.

Attribute Two: Before each battle begins, you may choose—

(1)  To summon Crystal Puppets enhanced to Hero Level * too, then summon once every half hour, with the Enhanced Crystal Puppets being Sixth Level troops, lasting for forty-eight hours.

(2)  To summon Crystal Giants equivalent to Hero Level * 20, then summon once every half hour, with the Crystal Giants being Seventh Level troops, lasting for forty-eight hours.

Note: Once the summoning target is chosen, it cannot be changed until all summoned entities have disappeared.

Afterward, he spent five units of Creation Energy to upgrade both the Vampire’s Fang and Speed Shoes to top-level Level 4 artifacts; there was no need to upgrade these to Level 5.

Vampire’s Fang: Level 4 artifact.

Attribute One: Constitution +5, Vitality +50%, Strength +5.

Attribute Two: Essence Extraction, when attacking, convert 25% of the damage dealt into health as well as stamina and vigor.

Speed Shoes: Level 4 treasure.

Attribute One: Agility +8, immune to any slowing effects.

Attribute Two: Automatically casts an indispellable Advanced Group Attack Speed on all troops at the start of each battle, lasting thirty minutes.

Equipping the treasure, Lin Xiao’s consciousness re-entered the Creation Rubik’s Cube with a thought, and a tangle of transparent threads appeared before him.

These were, of course, not real threads, but a strand of the Power of Laws obtained from killing those Evil Spirit Entities, and such a large amount had accumulated over time.

Stroking his chin, he thought for a moment, and with a thought, the Creation Rubik’s Cube in the Sea of Gods slowly rotated, a transparent flame spewed out from the crevices of the Cube’s structure, followed by mysterious airs of the laws.

Under the influence of the Cube’s power, the scattered power of the rules began to fuse.

In the process, he tried injecting Creation Energy into it, one unit at a time.

Ever since obtaining the Creation Rubik’s Cube, almost anything could be strengthened by this Creation Energy, which was quite miraculous, and he was quite looking forward to the changes that would occur once this substance was merged into the power of the rules.

Anything involving rules was of no trifling matter, and in this regard, Lin Xiao was not stingy. After all, he now had ample Creation Energy and the capital to experiment.

One point, three points, five points, ten points, twenty points… The Creation Energy flowed in like water, and he didn’t even blink an eye.

And this thing, like a bottomless pit, swallowed fifty units of Creation Energy as if it were nothing, without showing any reaction at all.

Truly, Lin Xiao had been closely monitoring the changes within the Creation Rubik’s Cube, pouring fifty units of Creation Energy in one go felt like he could strengthen a low-level Ancient Treasure to a high-grade one, but this thing didn’t even cause a ripple.

This couldn’t help but make him mutter in his heart, feeling somewhat unsure of himself.

But since he had already invested fifty units of Creation Energy, having spent so much, he had to see some results.

“I don’t believe this; see if you can swallow it all!”

Lin Xiao looked at the remaining three hundred units of Creation Energy he had left and gritted his teeth to continue.

More and more Creation Energy merged into this bottomless pit, and an unprecedented consumption of Creation Energy turned this ball of Law Power, which resembled a ball of yarn, into a unified whole. In his senses, it formed a ping-pong-ball-sized sphere, akin to a black hole, continuously surrounded by streams of Creation Energy like the accretion disk of a black hole.

After an indeterminate amount of time, as the constant infusion of Creation Energy was leaving him almost numb, at a certain moment, the black hole in the center of the Rubik’s Cube suddenly stopped accepting the infusion of Creation Energy.

Lin Xiao immediately perked up and swiftly accounted for the remaining Creation Energy, finding exactly one hundred units left.

No abnormalities were present before the final unit of Creation Energy was infused. After a full hundred units, the black hole began to shrink and collapse into an extremely small singularity that couldn’t be seen.

Then…

It exploded with a bang as if a universe were being born.

Endless Chaos Energy mixed with white light spread in an instant, filling the entire internal space of the Creation Rubik’s Cube. In that instant, Lin Xiao’s consciousness residing in the Magic Cube Space lost consciousness, and in a blurred state, he felt an infinite number of fragments of laws release from the singularity.

His consciousness directly shattered into dust and blended into the Creation Rubik’s Cube.

For any other being, the collapse of the will would naturally dissipate.

But with the protection of the Creation Rubik’s Cube, Lin Xiao’s Divine Consciousness Willpower was well preserved within the Cube’s space, echoing back and forth with the shockwaves rousing from the singularity’s explosion.

In the Divine Realm, the True Body of Lin Xiao, seated on the core throne of the God Country, suddenly shuddered, a mix of invisible, light beams and waves radiating from his head, as if something had exploded inside. A mysterious wave of laws descended upon him.

In an instant, he realized what was happening, and with a thought, he burned a hundred points of Divine Power, creating a Divine Power Barrier that bound both him and the throne, blocking the invisible light beams and waves emitted from his head.

“What great feat has my Incarnation accomplished now?”

Amid the invisible waves and light beams erupting from his mind, he sensed countless rules and laws intermingled, as well as a myriad of knowledge, all of which seemed to have sprayed out together.

In that moment, he felt as if he had entered a state of epiphany as the legends described, and his understanding of various rules and laws surged at an astonishing rate.

In less than one ten-thousandth of a second, the Truth Divine Position that he had struggled to piece together for so long had finally taken shape.

Just like the Creationist position, although not yet achieved due to lacking Godhood, once he became a Demigod, it would be ready to consolidate.

But the end was not yet concluded, because he hadn’t digested even a tenth of this knowledge.

One thousandth of ten thousandths is one one-thousandth – in an instant shorter than a blink, he had digested all the knowledge.

Or it can’t quite be called digestion; it had been rudely stuffed in, regardless of whether it could be understood or not.

Fortunately, he was a Divine Being at the moment, situated in the core of the Divine Realm, with the entire Divine Realm bearing the pressure, and with the protection of the Creation Rubik’s Cube, so he was able to fuse the knowledge and laws from the exploded singularity, resulting in…

Lin Xiao opened his Deity interface, which displayed:
