The Era of Gods - Chapter 290 - Chapter 290: Chapter 290: Ranking on the Sub-list of Outstanding Figures

Chapter 290: Chapter 290: Ranking on the Sub-list of Outstanding Figures

However, the words of the Lord of All Things were not yet complete. He continued:

“Besides, you can integrate this ball of Eternal Fire on your own, significantly increasing your mastery of the rules. In theory, it should be enough to allow an average godhood to surpass ten percent mastery, a higher godhood over ten percent, and for a weaker godhood, it’s possible to reach more than fifty percent.”

“Gulu!”

He could feel himself swallowing hard; this thing was incredibly tempting.

“The Crystal Wall Origin can directly strengthen the Divine Realm, enhance the Cards, Clan, and so forth.”

“The Divine Treasure of Myriad is a privilege that I once left behind, or rather, a qualification. Aside from some good things that I’ve left inside for you, its main function is a spot. This spot is usually of little use, but if I were to fail and fall in the future, the three inheritors of the Divine Treasure of Myriad will be qualified to compete for my most core legacy.”

“As for the qualification for the second phase of the Ruins of Myriad, that will be when you’re approaching your Divine Enthronement in the later period of your study. You can revisit the ruins then, and at that time, I will gift you with a generous present that you will need after your initial Divine Enthronement.”

After the Lord of All Things finished speaking, Lin Xiao was already tempted.

But he didn’t immediately agree, still asking cautiously:

“May I know what Your Majesty wishes me to do?”

“I need you to go to the Abyss Crystal Wall Universe and destroy the Crystal Wall Origin there!”

“Hiss!”

Lin Xiao took a sharp breath and immediately waved his hand, saying:

“Your Majesty, that is something I cannot help with.”

What a joke, to destroy the Crystal Wall Origin of another Crystal Wall Universe? What kind of deal is this, a death sentence?

No, not even a death sentence is like this, it’s utterly impossible. With his capabilities, he wouldn’t even get the chance to touch the Crystal Wall Origin, let alone destroy it.

“No, you can help. You wield the pure ‘Wrath’ authority, unlike the other lords of the abyss.”

The vast voice of the Lord of All Things rose within his Sea of Gods:

“In the All Things Crystal Wall Universe, you can’t feel anything unusual, but once you return to the Abyss Crystal Wall Universe, I don’t know how you do it, but as an absolutely pure abyss lord, in the great Abyss Universe, you are a natural child of the Crystal Wall and have the qualification to touch the Crystal Wall Origin.”

“I will send you back to the Abyss Crystal Wall Universe. There, you will immediately attract the attention of the will of the Abyss Crystal Wall and obtain the authority of the Crystal Wall’s child. Then, you can contact the Abyss Crystal Wall Origin. I will give you a Divine Artifact, and when the time comes, you will use it to destroy the Abyss Crystal Wall Origin. Then, your mission will be complete.”

Lin Xiao…

It was undeniable that he was moved.

“Regardless of whether you succeed or not, I will not take back what I have given to you. The Star Realm Battleship I bestow upon you holds the coordinates of the All Things Crystal Wall Universe. I will grant you the authority to pass through Myriad’s Crystal Wall. You can send your Incarnation to train in my universe whenever you wish.”

“If you succeed, I will naturally sense it here, and then I will grant you another generous gift. How about that?”

He was even more tempted now.

But along with the temptation came a glint of wariness. Was the Lord of All Things really so earnest for just this reason?

It looked like a very ordinary trade on the surface, but the fact that the Lord of All Things of such stature was tempting him this much was incredibly puzzling, and it made him slightly cautious; something didn’t seem right.

However, he lacked a reason to refuse and didn’t want to refuse. The offerings were too generous.

Not to mention the Eternal Fire, which could continually strengthen the Divine Realm, just the one hundred units of Crystal Wall Origin was equivalent to a thousand units of Creation Energy, a thought that left him particularly enticed. “What should I do?”

He was torn, lacking time to seek advice from his True Body and having no paper to write on.

What to do?

But after serious consideration, he realized he really had no room to refuse.

Or rather, there was effectively only one choice.

If his feelings were correct, and the Lord of All Things, once the great Lord of the Crystal Wall System, the King of Gods, was personally condescending to request the help of a mere high school student like himself, then the request must have been enormous, leaving no room for refusal.

The reason He didn’t force him was because this matter required his initiative.

If he were unwilling, even if thrown into the Abyss Crystal Wall Universe without his cooperation, the Lord of All Things would have no recourse. That’s why He proposed a trade, enticing him with direct benefits.

Realizing this, Lin Xiao’s resistance lessened as he said:

“Respected Majesty, I am willing to go, but I have a small request.”

“Speak.”

“I would like a few more Treasures of Myriad!”

“You already have the Divine Treasure of Myriad and other gifts; the treasures won’t be of much use to you.”

“I want them for a few friends of mine.”

“Name them.”

The Lord of All Things was very generous with this request. After all, what seemed to be treasures hard-won by mortals were but a trifle to a King of All Gods, easily disregarded.

“Radiance Shen Yuexin and Dark Moon Lin Xu, and for my current undefeated classmates in Radiance who enter the treasure, can the difficulty be lowered a bit? Shen Yuexin and Lin Xu must be guaranteed to receive their share, and the rest of the classmates can aim for treasures, but preferably those two should receive the All-Embracing Mysterious Storehouse.”

He didn’t dare ask for one each, as that’d be hard to explain. If the difficulty was lowered, with their capabilities, they would likely succeed in acquiring them.

“I can allocate one to each of them.”

The Lord of All Things’s generosity was beyond his expectations, but Lin Xiao still refused:

“There’s no need to give them directly; just reduce their difficulty will suffice.”

How could they just be given directly? How would he explain that? If everyone from Radiance ended up with a Treasure of Myriad without having to do anything, and just received it, that would surely cause problems once word got out.

Given Radiance’s status, no explanation was needed, and it was impossible for anyone to usurp it, but now that the four major forces had entered the Divine Treasure of Myriad together, this anomaly was bound to attract the attention of the big shots from the four major forces, leading to inquiries and consequently a series of uncontrollable changes.

So it was better to play it safe.

The Lord of All Things paid no attention to these concerns and accepted the offer outright.

Then, the transaction commenced.

Initially, the Lord of All Things had planned to deliver the items personally through a True God under his command to Lin Xiao’s True Body, but Lin Xiao did not request it to be so and instead wanted it now.

Externally, what manifested was the Eternal Fire suddenly exploding with boundless flames raining down, engulfing the entire island. Li Xiushen, who was locked in a bitter struggle with the Evil Spirit Entity, looked up bewilderedly as the sky filled with the gleam of fire and flames engulfed him, and then…

“Congratulations on defeating all the evil lords and minions. You have obtained *1 Treasures of Myriad.”

“?????”

Having reappeared outside Honeycomb Mountain, Li Xiushen, with his face full of question marks, scratched his head, muttering to himself in confusion:

“What’s going on here? Weren’t there two stages left? How is it over already? A BUG?”

With a thought, he checked his personal storage space and indeed found a dazzling orb suspended there, knowing at once from touching it with his mind that it was the Treasures of Myriad.

He nervously surveyed his surroundings, his face revealing uncontrollable ecstasy. Thinking it over, he felt the area was unsafe, so he tugged on his warhorse’s reins to leave the place first.

A similar situation occurred with other Radiance contestants challenging for the treasure. However, compared to Li Xiushen’s child’s play-like passage, the other contestants faced a somewhat higher difficulty, at the very least, the Eternal Fire hovering above the Floating Islands did not explode.

Meanwhile, at a certain location on the Floating Land of All Things Treasure, Lin Xu was exploring an Under World with a few teammates when suddenly, the rocky bridge they were on collapsed, plummeting them dozens of meters before landing on a plaza in front of a massive palace. The popping notification surprised them:

“Treasures of Myriad!”

No sooner had the voice faded, a suction force came, and the whole group was sucked in.

Before long, several participants from Dark Moon walked out with dismal expressions. One of them glanced at his companions and asked curiously:

“Where’s Lin Xu?”

“He hasn’t come out yet, I guess.”

“Then we’ll wait.”

Shortly after, a bewildered Lin Xu appeared at the entrance to the Treasures of Myriad, and one of the chatting members said with a smile:

“Was it too difficult? Don’t worry, you did well to last that long.”

The only girl in the team, a beautiful young lady with jade-like shining hair that radiated a faint life-green light, consoled him:

“You don’t have to mind. The Treasures of Myriad can be entered multiple times. If you can’t pass this time, you can try again after a few months of hard work.”

“Yeah, we’ll try again in the future.”

Their relationship with each other was quite good.

To be precise, the relationship was just average before, but after knowing his connection with Lin Xiao, these classmates drew closer, including the girl he admired.

“Right, let’s mark this place. We can come back after a few months when we all are stronger…”

“I’ve got it.”

“One trial… what did you say?”

The student talking instinctively dug his ear, while the others also stared over, wide-eyed.

Lin Xu hesitated for a moment while looking at the All-Embracing Mysterious Storehouse in his personal space and then said:

“I’ve got one Treasures of Myriad!”

Silence.

All the teammates stared at the projection of the All-Embracing Mysterious Storehouse emitted by him, too astonished to speak.

“How… how is that possible?”

Leaving aside the shock and disbelief here, inside the Divine Realm of Lin Xiao, Lin Xiao’s True Body was staring at the many treasures that similarly appeared out of thin air inside the Creation Rubik’s Cube, equally shocked and incredulous.

“What did my Incarnation do this time?”

He considered the Eternal Fire that he drew out and that resonated with the entire Divine Realm.

Then there was the Crystal Wall Origin, brimming with the rich fluctuations of Rules.

A palm-sized Star Realm Battleship, looking like a model.

A glow orb radiating with seven-colored brilliance of the Divine Treasure of Myriad.

And a Crystal Token representing the qualification for the second stage of the Ruins of Myriad.

“My Incarnation didn’t rob the Myriad Images God Temple, did it?”

But the content written on a newly appeared piece of paper quickly cleared up his confusion.

After reading the message on the paper, Lin Xiao fell into deep thought.

He approved of his Incarnation’s decision. If placed in the same situation, he would have made the same choice; there was no option.

This might make his self-incarnation less perfect, but fortunately, this Incarnation was not actively split from him but was accidentally transformed from an Incarnation, so there was little harm to him, and it could be remedied.

Although the requirements for remedy were extremely challenging, by the time he needed to address them, he would already have Powerful Divine Power, believing he would have enough ability to solve the problem then.

To exchange a problem that could be relatively easily solved in the future for an advantage now…
