The Era of Gods

Chapter 287: Chapter 287: Unlocking the Divine Treasure of Myriad

Strands of Creation Energy formed into bolts of lightning, crashing into the shell of the Crystal Wall System’s Core. It was like clay oxen entering the sea, leaving no trace. However, he could feel that deep within the core, a wondrous sensation was slowly awakening. As more and more Creation Energy poured in, the sensation grew stronger until…

At the impact of the last unit of Creation Energy transformed into lightning, it was as if a sun had suddenly risen in the sky. A miraculous feeling surfaced in his mind, and the Crystal Wall System’s Core shell rejuvenated as if it had undergone a metamorphosis.

Simultaneously, at the instant the Crystal Wall System’s Core awakened, an invisible ripple spread from the core, zapping past the boundaries of God Country and radiating throughout the entirety of the Divine Realm and extended far into the distance.

It quickly reached the edge of his Divine Realm where it coincided with the God’s realm crystal wall. The ripple didn’t stop there; instead, it pushed the boundary further outwards.

As the Master of the Divine Realm, Lin Xiao could distinctly sense his domain expanding rapidly, nearly quadrupling in just a split second.

In less than ten seconds, the diameter of his Divine Realm had expanded hundreds of times and was still growing.

At the same time, Lin Xiao began to inspect the attributes of his newly upgraded treasure:

Shell of the Crystal Wall System’s Core (Awakened): The shell of a Core from a fallen Crystal Wall System, fortunately intact, with its inner core well preserved.

Crystal Wall: Strengthen Divine Realm, expand the Divine Domain, enhance the Divine Domain Space strength to Rank 8, energy concentration Rank 8, stabilize the Divine Realm, integrate two additional cards per month, and at the cost of being unable to load any cards for a year, use one higher-rank card.

Core: The awakened core within the Crystal Wall System’s Core requires a new fundamental rule network to be woven before it can be utilized. Please carefully consider a fundamental rule network that suits you.

Assessment: An awakened Crystal Wall System’s Core, my goodness, this is a miracle.

As Lin Xiao had expected, the upgraded Crystal Wall System’s Core shell had bolstered the space strength and energy density of his Divine Realm to Rank 8, meaning it could now birth Rank 8 Legendary beings.

What surprised him most was the ability to use a higher-grade card that exceeds his current level, at the cost of not being able to load any other cards for a year.

This ability…

Could be said to be terrific, but also somewhat useless.

The cost of not being able to use any cards for a year is quite substantial, meaning that the value of that higher-grade card must exceed that of forty-eight cards used over the year.

Lin Xiao personally found it somewhat useless.

While many high-level cards exceed the value of forty-eight five-star Mythical Quality cards, they are generally single-attribute, capable of boosting one or two abilities to an exaggerated extent. However, for an entire year without being able to load new cards, other aspects would quickly fall behind peers, creating a weakness.

Often, strength in one area can compensate for other shortcomings, but not all of them.

College entrance exams test comprehensive abilities. No matter how strong you are in one or two subjects, if you’re worse in all others than your peers, it’s like a student with a couple of exceptional grades but failing all other subjects —Tsinghua and Peking Universities wouldn’t accept such a student, would they?

Moreover, the “college entrance exam” for Divine Territory Players is much stricter than those for ordinary people, not allowing for any significant weaknesses.

So, this ability seems fantastic in theory but is somewhat useless in practice.

Unless he can get a card that greatly and comprehensively enhances his powers, otherwise, it’s useless.

As for the second new ability obtained after repairing the Crystal Wall System’s Core…

It means exactly what it says—he needs to weave a new fundamental rule network from scratch.

As is well-known, each Crystal Wall Universe has its own unique fundamental rule network, such as Azeroth Crystal Wall Universe’s unique Star Soul Titan and Void Demon System, Ferren Crystal Wall Universe’s Faith God System, the Wizard World’s Wizard System, and the formerly Myriad Manifestation Crystal Wall Universe’s Hero System, etc., each a unique expression of a Crystal Wall Universe’s fundamental rules within the material plane.

Lin Xiao’s Crystal Wall System’s Core shell had long been damaged, and its original core had perished. The new core he had awakened meant that the original fundamental rule network was no longer present.

Lin Xiao now faced three choices.

The first was to repair and reshape the original Crystal Wall Universe’s fundamental rule network by using Plane Origin, Crystal Wall Origin, or Creation Energy along with the remnants within the shell of the core.

The second was to replicate another Crystal Wall Universe’s fundamental rule network by referencing it.

The third option was to start from scratch and weave his own unique Crystal Wall fundamental network.

The first option is naturally the simplest; with the remaining imprints, just enough resources would suffice for the repairs.

But if I were to do this, I would essentially resurrect the Crystal Wall Universe that was destroyed before, which might reopen the karma involved in its destruction. The benefit is inheriting the remnants of the natives and the wrecks scattered in the Chaotic Void Sea from the destroyed Crystal Wall Universe. Repairing it would be easy and require little thought, but there’s also a significant risk of reattracting the attention of the other powerful Crystal Wall Universe that contributed to its demise.

So, Lin Xiao instantly passed on this option; the risk was too great.

The second choice also carried huge risks. As each Crystal Wall Universe is unique, if I were to create an exact replica, the two Crystal Wall Universes would definitely sense each other’s presence. The Crystal Wall Universe I copied would without fail find me and then consume me.

Yes, consume me.

Since I would be copying it, the underlying rule network constituting the Crystal Wall Universe would be identical. To a Crystal Wall Universe, that is akin to a weaker piece of flesh, and the unique laws of the Chaotic Void Sea would compel the two Crystal Wall Universes to eventually collide with one another, with only one surviving after the other is consumed.

This is inevitable; even if I were to constantly hide in the Main World, it would be useless, as the Main World is a part of the Chaos Sea All Crystal Universe and cannot protect me.

The third choice, which is also the only viable option for Lin Xiao, is to start from scratch and shape a unique new Crystal Wall Universe.

As the creator of a new Crystal Wall Universe, I would naturally become the Lord of the Crystal Wall System, the King of the Gods within the Crystal Wall Universe, the God Above Gods, the Supreme Deity—not someone like Ao, who is but a Spokesperson for the Will of the Crystal Wall, but rather the true master of all aspects within a Crystal Wall Universe.

The benefits are certainly immense, but the difficulty is… well…

To create a Crystal Wall Universe from scratch, to have a newbie who isn’t even a Demigod to write up the fundamental rule network of a Crystal Wall Universe…

This is no longer a Herculean task, but rather, doubling the impossible. As for now, he is completely clueless, in the dark without a single clue.

Fortunately, there’s no rush for this matter, and it’s not like I’m without any solutions. The Creation Rubik’s Cube in the Sea of Gods offers a method, and that is to “gaseous Creation Energy.”

Yes, gaseous Creation Energy, but it’s not about spending money, it’s about infusing Creation Energy.

I may lack the ability, but the Creation Rubik’s Cube can handle it.

The feedback from the Creation Rubik’s Cube tells me that with enough Creation Energy, anything is possible.

As long as I prepare enough Creation Energy and then draft a preliminary design for the rule network of the new Crystal Wall Universe, once the payment of Creation Energy is made, the Creation Rubik’s Cube will be able to edit the rule network.

“Well, what can’t you do!”

If even a Crystal Wall Universe can be designed, Lin Xiao felt like he was just getting to know his Golden Finger; this feature is simply heaven-defying. Who knows, maybe one day it will transform into a beauty and tell you she’s pregnant with your child…

Of course, I wouldn’t believe it unless I experienced it myself…

If the Creation Rubik’s Cube can be infused with Creation Energy, then Lin Xiao’s ideas would be plentiful. In an instant, he came up with several very promising concepts.

For instance, drawing inspiration from the Star Souls of the Azeroth Universe to give birth to Innate Divine Spirit Titans with grand divine ranks, or referencing the Magic Net of the Ferren Crystal Wall Universe to establish a super Magic Net that covers the entire universe, or perhaps drawing on the Demon evolution system of the Abyss to set up a complete evolution system, and so on…

All in all, Humans have discovered many Crystal Wall Universes, among which some are incredibly powerful. He could take these as references and recreate a brand-new Crystal Wall Universe unrelated to them.

This endeavor is bound to require a massive amount of Creation Energy, but compared to the gains, any cost would be worth it.

I stretched out my right hand slowly and made a motion of grasping, and the Creation Rubik’s Cube slowly disintegrated into countless transparent light spots that faded away, revealing the Crystal Wall System’s Core hidden within. With a thought, the Crystal Wall System’s Core merged into the Divine Realm.

In that moment, the entire Strengthen Divine Realm shook violently. Slarda, who was presiding over a prayer ceremony in Heaven Divine Realm, suddenly felt an uncontrollable surge in his strength. The terrifying pressure forced all the surrounding Church officials to retreat, creating a vast clearing. The Vault of Heaven’s faint majesty quickly solidified. Lin Xiao’s enormous and majestic face slowly emerged, his eyes gazing upon his most core Clan. A massive pillar of Divine Power struck down, hitting Slarda who was in the midst of transformation.

As the Crystal Wall System’s Core evolved, the Divine Realm’s limit and energy concentration reached Rank 8, and Slarda, who had been stuck at the limit of Rank 7, naturally promoted to a Rank 8 Legend with his own tremendous power.

Moreover, he wasn’t just an ordinary legendary creature, but a true legendary power that mastered the rules.

Simultaneously, the limits of all Clans within the Divine Realm rose to level eight. Among them, the Wise Goblins’ leader Alemente and the Flame Lord Kurbert, were both top Rank 7 powerhouses, second only to Slarda, waiting for the Divine Realm to stabilize before their imminent promotion.

Although the Rank 8 creature types were already unlocked, the Naga’s normal power limit is Rank 7, and under normal circumstances can only reach Rank 7 unless there are special reasons.

As I personally descended with a full thousand units of Divine Power, Slarda’s powers began to skyrocket.

As my most core Clan, and the one I have the highest hopes for, I am not stingy with him, even if such a large amount of Divine Power might be wasted..
