Perfect Villain Life: Universal Job Change

Chapter 82: The First Divine Slave

Marika looked at the purple seed in Qin Xian’s hand, her face filled with terror and despair. Finally, she cast aside her divine pride and pleaded, “Spare me. I am willing to grant you the most perfect blessing—even if it means you devour the World Origin!”

The Eternal Queen Marika, the creator god of an ancient empire, had once led her empire through millennia of battles against the Void. Even in the bleakest moments, when the Great Terrors of the Void surrounded the Hall of Gods, she had not yielded. But now, she had submitted.

The reason was Ancient God’s Curse—a skill too horrifying to bear.

Within the First Court of the Void Empress, countless gods were enslaved. These deities, once as exalted as the Eternal Queen Marika, were worshipped by billions. 

But under the Ancient God’s Curse, their souls became bound to the Empress, and their very lives depended on another’s whim, turning them into the lowest of slaves. 

Marika did not fear death. What she feared was a fate worse than death—complete enslavement.

Seeing the terror on Marika’s face and the humiliation of her bound posture, Qin Xian’s gaze was devoid of pity. His face wore a gentle smile, but his words were chilling. “I’ve never had a divine slave before… Eternal Queen Marika, consider it an honor to be my first divine slave. You won’t be the last!”

With that, Qin Xian grasped Marika’s delicate lips and forced the seed of the Ancient God’s Curse into her mouth.

In the next moment, Marika’s agonized screams reverberated across the dimensional space. But these cries no longer drew Qin Xian’s attention. He turned, his gaze fixed on the World Origin floating in the air.

The World Origin—the very foundation of a world embryo—contained countless laws within it. The so-called blessings from the gods were merely fragments of these laws granted to mortals through the World Origin. 

For a Void Overlord, the World Origin was a delicacy of unparalleled value within the universe. By devouring one, a Void Overlord could significantly amplify their power and gain control over the laws themselves.

Qin Xian didn’t hesitate further and began devouring the World Origin!

The Broken Kingdom: Imperial Treasury

The Imperial Treasury, held by the Saint Nulmen Empire for generations, was a repository of countless treasures. When the Void invaded, the emperors of the empire concealed the treasury within a dimensional space using the power of laws, keeping it untouched by the Void’s corruption. 

After the empire’s fall, the treasury remained sealed in the void.

This Imperial Treasury was a colossal tomb filled with treasures. The floor was strewn with gold and jewels, casting a brilliant glow that made the entire space look surreal. Yet, in this treasure vault, gold and jewels were of the lowest value.

In every corner of the treasury lay wondrous artifacts, rare equipment, weapons, and extraordinary items.

– Imperial Armor: Purple-grade equipment, unrestricted by level. Strength +150, Constitution +150, Spirit +100. Reduces incoming damage by 20%. When health drops below 30%, grants a shield equal to 100% of maximum health for 20 seconds. Cooldown: 2 hours.

– Void Hunter Sword: Purple-grade weapon, Strength +200. Deals 50% additional damage to Void entities.

– Sacred Tome Shield, Spear of Michael, Sword of Grace…

Each of these powerful artifacts floated throughout the treasury. Any one of these items would be worth billions outside and spark a frenzy among the great factions!

After all, the ancient empire had once been one of the universe’s most powerful civilizations. Millennia of accumulated relics were indeed astonishing.

When Ye Xuan entered the treasure vault, he was nearly overwhelmed by the sight. 

As the last surviving heir of the Ye family, he had been a wanderer since his family’s downfall, with barely any resources at his disposal. 

The equipment he wore, though decent, was worlds apart from what lay in this treasure trove. He wasted no time and immediately donned a set of unrestricted purple-grade gear, boosting his combat power several times over.

At that moment, mighty figures began appearing around Ye Xuan. 

They were the emperors of the ancient empire, whose souls had been tormented and bound by the Great Terrors of the Void. However, after the Void Warden Karok’s death, these spirits guided mortals to the Hall of Gods and then returned to the treasury.

From the moment Ye Xuan stepped into the vault, they had reawakened, sensing the divine mark on him and recognizing his identity. 

Ye Xuan was the new emperor of the Saint Nulmen Empire!

In the Saint Nulmen Empire, emperors were chosen by the gods rather than being part of a hereditary line. None of the past emperors were related by blood, yet they immediately accepted Ye Xuan as their own.

Ye Xuan arrived at the deepest part of the treasury, where a vast golden pool lay. This pool shimmered with starlight and radiated immense power.

“What is this…” Ye Xuan’s face was filled with awe.

The energy within the golden pool was so immense that even he felt a hint of fear.

“This is the essence of the empire. Each emperor, upon death, infused their power into the Golden Pool. Now, it is yours… We can sense the immense potential within you, but to unleash it, you require vast energy. The Golden Pool will be your place of transformation…”

The voices of the emperors echoed through the vault, resonant with the weight of ages.

Ye Xuan nodded slowly and stepped into the Golden Pool.

In an instant, he felt a torrent of brilliant energy surging into his body, and he couldn’t help but cry out as his eyes turned a luminous gold, and golden dragon scales began to appear on his skin.
