Master Changsheng

Chapter 458, Section 456: You are not my disciple?

The Divine Court was something that player Li Dabao had never heard of before.

A continuous cluster of ancient buildings sits before you.

Li Dabao searched the player forums but couldn't find the answer. He thought about it for a moment.

"Since I have nowhere else to go, I might as well explore the Divine Court!"

After Li Dabao entered the Divine Court, he vanished without a trace.

Even the ancient architectural complex of the Divine Court disappeared along with it.

The moment Li Dabao entered the Divine Court.

An Kai, who had just left the Chaos Sea, paused.

"Why has that kid disappeared again?"

That's right, An Kai was once again unable to sense Li Dabao's information.

It disappeared even more completely than the last time.

This left An Kai completely bewildered.

At the same time, he once again affirmed Li Dabao's role in his heart.

This guy really can't be kept in a good family; he should be allowed to roam freely in the divine realm. It's only been a few days, and he's just escaped from being a second-class deity under the [God of Light] and the [God of Darkness], and he's already entered a new environment once again.

An Kai couldn't help but wonder, "Could it be that this kid has been captured by the four First-Class Gods under the command of the God of Magic?"

The more I think about it, the more likely it seems.

After all, in the current divine realm, An Kai is confident that only a [first-class god] can shield his senses.

An Kai had no doubt that it was the Divine Court that had appeared.

The main issue is the changes that the [Divine Court Academy] brought to the divine realm, and its subsequent impact, which is still ongoing.

There's no reason for a new divine court to appear at this time.

After all, in the past, the Divine Court only appeared when the influence of the previous Divine Court's facilities on the Divine Realm had completely disappeared.

Every appearance of it is traceable.

That's why Ankai didn't connect it to the Divine Court.

To date, the Divine Court has reached its eighth level.

The Divine Court has nine levels in total, and only the last level is missing before all levels will be completed.

From the first level of the Divine Court onwards, each appearance of the Divine Court precedes a relatively stable period in the divine realm, including changes within the divine realm itself, which also occur during this stable period.

There has never been a situation where the Divine Realm was not yet stable and the energy advancement was not yet complete before the [Divine Court] appeared.

This is why Ankai did not connect the disappearance of player Li Dabao with the [Divine Court].

Even if you put yourself in the shoes of the [God of Magic] and Ankai, the [God of Magic] wouldn't think that way.

In addition, the final level, the Divine Court, was so special that it disappeared without a trace after absorbing the player Li Dabao.

He never left a second trace in the realm of gods.

It seems that the appearance of the Divine Court this time defied common sense and was specifically for the player Li Dabao.

Actually, it's both right and wrong.

Yes, it's because the [Divine Court] did indeed appear for the player Li Dabao.

The inaccuracy lies in the fact that the Divine Court did not appear because of the player Li Dabao, but specifically because of the wisp of aura left by An Kai within the player Li Dabao's body.

It absorbs player Li Dabao into its body.

[Divine Court] also did not expect that he came specifically for An Kai's aura, but ended up not absorbing the person himself.

This is also a coincidence.

During the time when the Divine Court appeared, Ankai was living in the House of Goodness.

Enveloped by the enhanced [Meditation Ring], even the [Divine Court] could not detect Ankai's whereabouts.

Not to mention anything like capturing Ankai's scent.

Therefore, the wisp of aura within player Li Dabao misled the [Divine Court], causing them to appear ahead of schedule at a cost, only to absorb player Li Dabao into the building complex.

The disappearance of player Li Dabao only aroused An Kai's suspicion for a short time.

He quickly stopped thinking about it.

Instead, led by the God of Spring, they sped toward the First-Class God ranked 410 on the God Ranking.

According to the plan set forth by the God of Law, as revealed by the God of Spring, now is not the time for the first-class deities under the God of Law to make their move.

They will only take action after they sense that the Chaos Sea has completely changed.

Indeed, in the plan devised by the [God of Law] for the five [First-Class Gods], in order to prevent them from revealing their location due to frequent sensing, thus prompting the gods under the command of the [God of Light] and the [God of Darkness] to realize that something was wrong and therefore abandon the battle with the [Chaos Sea].

The God of Law explicitly forbids his five First-Class Deities from sensing the outside world after their injuries have healed.

The rule is set that the event can only be detected once a year.

Under the premise of the [God of Law], it will take at least five years for the gods under the command of the [God of Light] and the [God of Darkness] to clash with the beings of the [Chaos Sea] to reach a conclusion.

To be on the safe side, the best opportunity would be to reappear seven years later.

At that time, the God of Light, the God of Darkness, and the Chaos Sea were already locked in a bloody battle, unable to advance or retreat.

Both sides will also experience their greatest losses at that time.

This is the perfect time for the gods under the [God of Magic] to appear and reap the rewards.

Therefore, Ankai was quite certain that his sneak attack would work.

I will never allow the four First-Class Gods under the command of the God of Law to gather together.

After all, under the orders of the [God of Law], there are still several months before they have the opportunity to use their perception of the outside world this year.

This time is enough for Ankai to deal with the four [First-Class Gods].

Apart from the [First-Class Deity] ranked 380 on the [Gods Ranking], whom An Kai found somewhat troublesome, the other three did not pose much of a challenge for him.

For example, the one we're about to deal with.

The ranking is [410] on the God Ranking, while An Kai is ranked [388] on the God Ranking.

Furthermore, An Kai had never considered a direct confrontation with his opponent, and with the sneak attack, An Kai couldn't figure out how he could lose.

Even though he's currently in a state of celebration, like popping champagne in the middle of the game.

Ankai didn't seem to care.

This is the confidence that comes with great strength!

With the lackey [God of Spring] leading the way, finding the four hidden [First-Class Gods] was no longer a difficult problem.

An Kai gripped the God of Spring as he sped through the air.

The God of Spring only needs to think about the route in his mind.

They sped from the eastern part of the divine realm to the western part.

Being in two different directions, it didn't take up too much of Ankai's time.

A vast, secluded forest appeared before An Kai.

According to the God of Spring, this secluded forest in front of us is the hiding place of the First-Class God, ranked 410 on the God Ranking.

He is also the weakest of the five First-Class Gods under the command of the God of Law.

Of course, the God of Spring is not strong either, only ranked four places higher than the opponent on the God Ranking.

"Sir, this is his hiding place."

"He is this secluded forest, and this secluded forest is him."

"He is the deity who controls the [dense forest]—the God of the Dark Forest."

"The most terrifying aspect of his power is that once you enter his range, your every move and thought will be controlled by him. Not only that, this guy can also actively plant 'Seeds of the Dark Forest' in your heart. Once successfully planted, you will become his puppet."

As the explanation of the [God of Spring] came to an end, Ankai smiled.

An Kai suddenly realized something: these so-called gods, whether they were high above or burdened with a lot of infamy, all had one thing in common.

--control!

The core of the techniques and divine rules they master is control.

Control your enemies, control your subordinates, and even control your comrades!

"If a deity's core purpose is to control all people and things outside of itself, rather than to explore a spiritual realm beyond the material world, does such a deity deserve to be called a 'deity'?"

Ankai wanted to laugh.

He couldn't help but recall the "immortals" he had heard about in his previous life.

A simple recollection is enough to clearly sense the vast difference between "immortals" and "deities".

The God of Spring looked up at Ankai, not understanding what the other was laughing at.

However, after receiving guidance from the light, the God of Spring has come to understand how a qualified subordinate should act.

For example, at this moment, when An Kai chuckles, all he needs to do is laugh along.

This is what a qualified subordinate should do.

The God of the Dark Forest seems difficult to deal with, especially since the Dark Forest he has evolved is boundless, as if the entire world is only occupied by his Dark Forest.

The clumsy approach is to treat everyone equally.

It destroyed the entire boundless, dark forest along with it.

However, doing so is not only time-consuming and laborious, but also makes it easy for the other party to escape.

However, these so-called problems are not problems for Ankai.

The upgraded Fireball spell is powerful enough to destroy everything.

He tilted his head and glanced at the God of Spring, who immediately understood.

He immediately revealed his true spirit form, feigning injury, and rushed towards the dark forest, shouting, "Save me! They've framed me!"

Upon seeing the God of Spring, Yu Lin trembled slightly, and a wary yet puzzled voice rang out from within: "What's wrong with you?"

Only the sound was heard, but no one appeared.

But that's enough!

An Kai sneered, his gaze fixed on the northern part of the secluded forest: "Found you!"

In an instant, the [Fireball] spell descended from the sky.

The northern part of the secluded forest was directly locked down.

Other areas of the Dark Forest were also within the range of the Fireball spell, but the Fireball spell was primarily targeted at the northern part of the Dark Forest.

Sensing the deadly threat, the [God of the Forest] seemed to be in disbelief as he roared, "You have betrayed the [God of Law]?"

As the God of Spring ran back, he heard his former companion questioning him and laughed disdainfully, then replied, "What kind of worthless wretch is the God of Magic? Does he even deserve my betrayal?"

"I was simply fortunate to have met a wise ruler; the title of 'God of Law' was merely something I deliberately venerated when completing a task for my master!"

"He is not even a hair on my lord's head!"

Hearing the God of Spring say this was no less shocking to the God of the Forest than learning of the God of Spring's betrayal.

He never imagined that one day he would hear such words from the God of Spring!

As for the [Fireball] that was about to descend from above, the [God of the Forest] only glanced at it before paying no further attention.

"If you can't resist it, why pay attention?"

boom!

The Fireball spell descended upon the God of the Forest in shock.

It devoured him in an instant.

The forest manifested by the God of the Forest was completely devoured by the Fireball spell in an instant.

Boundless flames replaced the dark forest, becoming the dominant theme of this world.

The blazing heat, like dancing fire sprites, leaped and sang with joy after receiving nourishment from the secluded forest.

With a wave of his hand, the [First-Class Deity: Heart of the God], which had fallen after the death of the [God of the Forest], came into Ankai's hands.

Sensing the immense energy within, An Kai couldn't help but recall another matter.

He now needs two [First-Class Deities: Hearts of Gods] to meet the energy requirements for spell upgrades.

What if the next spell involves a significant leap in rank?

What about the time after that?

What if one day you need the [Supreme God] to upgrade your spell level?

There are only three Supreme Gods in the entire divine realm.

Shaking his head, An Kai dismissed those useless thoughts from his mind.

If that day ever comes, he can simply grind up his spell level little by little over time.

In any case, aside from energy loss, Ankai can also improve through his own enlightenment.

Doing that would simply take a long time.

However, for Ankai, time is probably the least valuable thing.

The Summoning Gate has reappeared.

The true spirit of the [God of the Dark Forest] appeared before the [Summoning Gate], seemingly following An Kai's will.

The memories of one's entire life are being reshaped by the [Summoning Gate].

An Kai's presence was abruptly etched into his past life experiences.

Then occupy the main position.

After some recollection, the God of the Forest suddenly realized that his achievements today were closely related to one person from his humble beginnings.

It was none other than An Kai.

Ankai's existence permeated his entire life.

He died at this time, but not because he was killed by An Kai.

Rather, it was because he had fallen under the spell of the [God of Law].

Ankai destroyed his useless physical body in order to save him.

Instantly, the emotion in the eyes of the God of the Dark Forest seemed to overflow.

Filled with excitement, he looked at Ankai, then turned to look at the [God of Spring] beside him, and couldn't help but say:

"You're right!"

"Compared to our master, the [God of Law] is nothing but a worthless piece of trash!"

"My lord, thank you for allowing me to awaken to the truth and break free from the cage of the [God of Law]!"

[The God of the Forest] expresses heartfelt gratitude.

Ankai was not surprised at all.

Previously, when Ankai summoned the gods under the command of the [God of Light] and the [God of Darkness], some were even more exaggerated than the [God of the Dark Forest].

If An Kai hadn't been able to sense the other person's true thoughts, everyone would probably have thought the other person was acting.

After subduing the [God of the Forest], Ankai did not linger.

They continued speeding towards the location of the next [First-Class Deity] under the command of the [God of Law].

This time, he had two sides to deceive the other party, causing the [First-Class Deity] True Spirit to appear momentarily stunned.

Player Li Dabao entered the ancient building complex and then left.

He was like a lost person who had lost his way.

No matter how he walks or what method he uses to walk.

They still couldn't leave the building in front of them even a step.

No matter where player Li Dabao goes or what efforts he makes, he finds that he is always standing still.

This strange phenomenon made player Li Dabao certain of one thing: the place he entered was indeed very mysterious!

Just as player Li Dabao was recording all of this, a sudden exclamation rang out throughout the area:

"Um???"

"You're not my disciple? How come you have the aura of my new disciple?!"
