Chapter 406: Chapter 406: Defining the Path to the Future


    Every time Lin Xiao closely observed a fundamental rule, a corresponding thread of fundamental rule light would reappear on the inner wall of the Crystal Wall Origin Core in his mind, and he could feel some peculiar changes within himself.


    This change was indescribable, and although he could not specifically examine himself at the moment, he could be sure that this was definitely a positive change.


    Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Lin Xiao slowly went through all the fundamental rules one by one, without missing a single one, until all the threads representing the fundamentalws inside the outer shell of the brain’s Crystal Wall Origin became visible under the continuous infusion of Crystal Wall Origin.


    When thest rule thread sessfully appeared, information naturally emerged in Lin Xiao’s mind, and his mood became even more excited.


    The information was simple: by observing thework of fundamentalws of the Main World andbining the constant infusion of Crystal Wall Origin, he had reawakened the long lostwork of fundamentalws within this Crystal Wall Origin Core.


    This meant…


    Lin Xiao’s lips twitched into a smile, but the smile was tinged with a trace of worry.


    As expected, the reawakening of the long-lostwork of fundamentalws meant that the Crystal Wall Origin Core, now integrated with him, indicated that he could fully master these ny-nine basic underlyingws.


    But his worry was that this thing had only just been activated and was too weak; even if he had full mastery, it would not bring him much strength.


    He needed to continually acquire Crystal Wall Origin and integrate it within to grow these fundamentalws constantly, and only then would his strength increase.<div>


    In theory, as long as thiswork of fundamentalws grew strong enough, he could be infinitely powerful, possibly evenparable to great divine power, or perhaps even exceed it.


    But this was merely theoretical, as the requirements were far too high.


    To put it this way, he had spent a total of nine hundred ny units of Crystal Wall Origin just now, merely to activate and materialize the fundamental rules within it.


    However, even though it was just materialized, a certain power had begun to faintly emerge. Yet, the Crystal Wall Origin being infused was far from enough to make it manifest fully; it was only a shadow. Lin Xiao fell silent for a moment, nced at the nine thousand plus Crystal Wall Origin he still had left, and gritted his teeth to continue the infusion.


    It was difficult to earn this stuff, but it was spent quickly, as he continued to infuse each fundamentalw withrge amounts of Crystal Wall Origin. Combined with the previous hundred units infused into each one, ny-ninews amounted to nine thousand nine hundred units of Crystal Wall Origin.


    In fact, the power had already materialized halfway through the infusion, but he persisted until he had invested that much before stopping.


    Then, full of anticipation and unable to wait, he examined this power:


    Extraordinary Divine Power (Origin Ability) – Minor God Sealing Technique: The privilege of the Lord of the Crystal Wall System, you have the ability to bestow divinity upon mortals and ignite the Divine Fire to make them demigods.


    Notice one: Those who are granted divinity and ignited into demigods must be your devout believers.


    Notice two: The targets granted divinity cannot obtain any extraordinary abilities or godhood; these must be given separately.


    Notice three: This process will consume the granter’s Divine Power, with specific consumption depending on the target’s own strength and the conditions of the grant.


    Caution: Those who are granted will have their will forcibly changed to be ardent believers who cannot be reversed by the granter, and if they lose their faith, they will also lose the granted power.


    “Ah, this…”


    Lin Xiao’s eyes widened in surprise; whilst he had considered many powerful abilities, including some super abilities he imagined, he had never thought it would be this.


    “This is too twisted! But I like it!”


    It was unexpected, yet upon further reflection, it made sense. Theoretically, he alone had mastered aplete set of basic underlyingws, equivalent to one person amodating all the privileges of ancient gods within a Crystal Wall Universe—this truly made him the Lord of the Crystal Wall. Theoretically, this should be another realm altogether, beyond great divine power, so possessing such a staggering extraordinary divine power only seemed natural.


    Unfortunately, the set of basic underlyingws he controlled was too weak, pathetically weak. If he could strengthen it to… the level of a ne, his power would be that of a ne Lord.


    If he could enhance it to… the scale of a Crystal Wall Universe, then his power would beparable to the Lord of the Crystal Wall System, unquestionably an existence on the level of great divine power.


    That is to say…<div>


    “Have I discovered another path to great divine power?”


    Lin Xiao wore an odd expression on his face.


    Opportunities for transcendence that others spent their whole lives unable to obtain, he had encountered twice in a short span of time; this was just too…


    “Pretty thrilling, yo!”<div>


    Moreover, this opportunity was unknown and unenvied by anyone, as long as he did not speak of it, no one would know, ensuring its security.


    That is to say, the biggest problem now lying before him was the plundering of Exotic Origin, whether it was ne Origin or Crystal Wall Origin.


    Leaving the Crystal Wall Origin aside, the ne Origin was in essence a weakened version of the Crystal Wall Origin. Although the effect was much lesser, if the quantity wererge enough, it would suffice. After all, both were usable to him.


    At this point, Lin Xiao could finally ascertain the path ahead of him, which was an endless road of seizing Exotic Origin.


    However, to plunder Exotic Origin, one must possess powerful strength, so the question of how to grow remained unchanged. The only difference now was that he had a clear goal.


    Currently, Lin Xiao felt incredibly excited within. He was very eager to try transforming one of his n into a Demigod, but Gaia Will’s reward had not ended yet. In fact, he had not yet chosen a Basic Underlying Law.


    Previously, he had been struggling with which to pick but there was no need to hesitate now. He could just pick any one at random, which was perfect for concealing the perverse power he had just acquired.


    His gaze scanned thework of Fundamental Laws that no one had chosen yet. All the Godhoods capable of advancing to great divine power were gone. The famous and powerful Divine Roles were picked clean by the predecessors. Although the remaining options were all powerful, they were a notch below those selected. If the powerful Godhoods were divided into upper, middle, and lower levels, most of the remaining ones would be middle to lower level.


    Lin Xiao didn’t take too long to choose. He casually selected one that seemed decent from among the powerful Basic Underlying Roles — Bnce, ranking as one of the best among the remaining middle-level ones.


    Strictly speaking, the potential of this Divine Role could be considered upper level, but what rendered it unpopr was its peculiarity.


    Bnce, this Divine Role was an absolute neutral role, where its bearers must maintain universal bnce to gain Divine Power.


    As everyone knows, Ancient gods don’t need Devout Believers. The Divinity of Ancient godses from many of the Basic Underlying Laws that form the foundation of the universe, allowing them to directly draw Strength from the Crystal Wall Universe.


    For example, the ughter Ancient gods; as long as there were acts of ughter in the universe, they could gain Divine Power. It didn’t matter whether it was by their believers or not, or whether they witnessed it or not. As long as the ughter urred within the universe, including in the territories of the n of the Son of the Divine Realm, they would rue Divine Power, which is why the ughter Ancient gods have always been very powerful.<div>


    In fact, Lin Xiao suspected that many of the beings with a God Level as high as Level 19 in the Human Main World were Ancient gods, but there was no evidence.


    After all, the Godhood of Ancient gods doesn’t manifest externally, unnoticed by others and can only be surmised through certain behaviors.


    Ah, these powerful forces with a God Level as high as Level 19, because their strength far exceeds that of normal powerful forces, yet falls short of great divine power, the deities have delineated an additionalyer amidst themselves, called Super Divine Power or Ultra-Powerful Divine Power to denote this tier.


    The Ancient Deity that Lin Xiao chose was Bnce, which means as long as universal bnce is maintained, he could gain Divine Power.


    Strictly speaking, this wasn’t difficult; the Bnce here referred to a broad sense of bnce, not the narrow sense. For instance, if two Kingdoms in the mortal ne were at war, their strength initially quite matched, but if one side suddenly received external aid, it would disrupt the bnce, which would have a certain impact on his Divine Power.


    But this was just a small disturbance in the mortal realm. In the grand scheme of the universe, it was a negligible imbnce. Hence it would affect his Divine Power, but insignificantly, to the point of being ignorable.


    However, if two powerful Divine Systems within the universe were to engage in a major conflict, such a war would affect hundreds or thousands of nes, causing countless casualties. This would definitely disrupt the ecological bnce of the entire universe, significantly affecting him.


    Especially if the battling Divine Systems werepletely opposing forces, such as the Light Divine System waging war against the Death Divine System, victory for either side would have a colossal impact on the Crystal Wall Universe. The loss of bnce between Life and Death would severely weaken his Strength.


    Therefore, his task was simple: maintain the broad bnce of the entire universe, and Divine Power would continue growing incessantly.


    If it were in another Crystal Wall Universe, Lin Xiao definitely wouldn’t choose this thankless role of a universal nanny as an Ancient Deity. However, in the stable Main World, this Godhood, though not renowned forbat power, was quite suitable for him.


    The instant he chose the Bnce Role, Lin Xiao felt a change within himself.


    Firstly, through the Ancient God’s Role of Bnce, he could instantly sense anything rted to bnce throughout the Main World. To put it simply, anywhere in the Main World, should bnce be disrupted, he would be able to sense it.


    Moreover, through the Ancient God Role of Bnce, he was now continuously receiving an influx of Divine Power, manifesting out of the Void and surging into his body.<div>


    Furthermore, he would continuously gain insight into the Rule of Bnce.


    To differentiate from the manifest Godhood known as rules, what the Ancient gods possessed were referred to as Rules. For instance, ordinary gods of life wield the rule of life, while Ancient gods of life wield the Law of Life.


    Theoretically, Lin Xiao could do nothing but eat and sleep, and in who knows how many tens of thousands of years, he could still ascend to a True God, breaking through Divine Levels to be a powerful force.


    Ah, this only applied to the Ancient God’s Divinity. The external Godhood wouldn’t change. These were two different paths, but they could perfectly ovep.


    Theoretically, he could be an Ancient God with a Divine Level of 19 while remaining a mere Demigod in terms of external Godhood – an abnormality.


    Normally, a Divine Level of 19 is the limit, and Ancient gods cannot be certain of breaking through this step to be a being of great divine power.


    “This is so exhrating!”


    Lin Xiao understood that this was the greatest benefit of being a Son of Gaia, as well as the greatest benefit he had obtained this time.
