The world doesn't need succubi to save it.

! ”

He glared at the person who had made that absurd suggestion and shouted at them:

"This is blasphemy against the gods!"

! ”

"If we really do that, how will we explain ourselves when the gods return?"

His roar and rhetorical questions did indeed make some of the agents around him, who were wavering, think things through.

"Moreover, even if someone were to be deified... who should hold that position? And how should their divine office be chosen?"

The believers are secondary; there are no contenders now, as all extraordinary beings can temporarily act as believers of that god.

However, there is one problem that cannot be avoided.

[Cleric]

This is a topic that the gods can never avoid, and it was also the most direct cause of the past wars between the gods.

Even the gods are not immune to worldly desires and cannot tolerate other gods vying for power. And now someone is actually proposing to support a new god?

Where does his power come from? How should the priesthood be decided? From which deity should flesh be taken?

These are problems that must be faced; there is no way to escape them.

Even if we take a step back and assume that the deification was successful, what will the gods do when they awaken and see the one who was forcibly deified?

"Then what do you suggest we do? Are we just going to wait like this forever? My lord, nobody knows when the gods will return!"

Even so, you cannot make such a decision!

……

The noise over there was fierce, but to the demons who didn't engage in such activities, it seemed utterly boring.

Still dressed in that classic aristocratic attire, the transformed Karan exudes a complex aura that blends elegance and madness, far removed from those conflicts.

Karan shrank back, coldly observing the reactions of the others.

"Ugh, how boring."

"They all looked tense, as if they were about to engage in a bloody battle with humans, but none of them were willing to be the first to do so."

The nail that sticks out gets hammered down. All supernatural beings know that humans will show no mercy when facing the first traitor, so they all try to avoid being the one who gets taken advantage of.

If you lose your life, you lose everything, so don't talk about ambition or anything like that.

Therefore, in order to avoid taking the initiative, they have all come up with outrageous suggestions such as "creating gods".

Her main purpose in attending this meeting was to observe the other side's forces while also seeking her own benefit.

A week passed, during which she never gave up on checking her body.

And she did indeed discover something unusual; there seemed to be something special inside her body.

Like fragments of a soul, but even more...noble?

She couldn't quite explain what it was, but intuitively she felt it wasn't something as simple as the soul.

After searching through a large number of ancient books, and even making an exception by using his own privileges to collect some books from other places, Kalan finally found a relatively close possibility in one of the books.

Divinity.

Chapter 301 The Return of the Sage

Regarding deities, the extraordinary beings created by the deities know more about them than humans do.

Divinity, divine office, and divinity are the three major elements that constitute the power of a deity.

Divinity represents the advancement of a deity's rank, divine office represents the domain they correspond to, and divinity corresponds to their power.

Among them, the divine status is the most difficult to improve and obtain, requiring a long period of time to accumulate.

Divine office represents different domains of power, which can be achieved either gradually over time or by forcibly seizing divine office.

As for divinity...

This is how this mysterious power is described in ancient texts.

Divinity is the foundation of all power.

To put it more bluntly, divinity is the most efficient and powerful energy source in the world.

Gods are like huge and sophisticated machines. What is enough magic for mortals is not enough for them. Only divinity can maximize their power.

For the gods, these three elements do not exist in isolation, but rather complement each other and are indispensable.

Their battles also revolve around these struggles, in order to gain greater power.

But this is not the case for ordinary things!

However, it is not only gods who possess divinity; in fact, there are many beings that possess divinity!

Divine unicorns, hundred-armed giants, high demons...

They may not possess divinity or divine office, but they do possess powerful divinity. Although their status may be lower than that of gods, some of them may even be able to rival them.

In fact, the bloodline of demons is described in that book as equivalent to a weakened divine bloodline!

The primal power contained within the bloodline of demons is a divine power that has been infinitely weakened.

The reason why demons are so keen on killing each other is that they instinctively seize the divine power within each other and activate that divinity through repeated battles.

Karan initially scoffed at this claim, but eventually had to admit that it seemed to make some sense.

From her mother, Karan had always been able to sense a fear and...desire that she could not resist.

They wanted to seize her position, but even more so, they wanted to seize her power!

"She must possess divinity, and quite a lot of it."

Divinity can be bestowed voluntarily if the deity is willing to sever it.

Many scroll users who gain legendary power overnight do so in this way, and the divinity of different gods and divine offices will also have different differences, which may result in special power bonuses.

Like certain deities who hold divine authority over the dark realm, their followers can gain special abilities from the shadow realm through divinity.

"If what remains in my body is truly divinity, what kind of power would it possess?"

What kind of power does that mysterious being possess?

Thinking about this problem again, Karan's expression turned serious as he pondered another issue that could not be ignored.

"No, before that, why did she leave divinity within me? What was her reason and purpose?"

There are no free gifts.

Any gift given in the name of generosity will eventually come at a price, regardless of the form it takes.

Miracles are never free.

"Moreover, they didn't tell me. Was it because they disdained it? Or did they think I wouldn't find out?"

It's probably the latter.

Given the other party's capabilities and status, it was impossible for them to overlook this point. It was for this reason that Kalan did not voluntarily remove that bit of divinity from his body.

While eliminating the danger is the safest option, it also cuts off all other possibilities.

For a qualified ambitious person, taking risks is far too easy; she would never give up because of such uncertain dangers.

More importantly, if the other side is truly so ancient and powerful, no matter how much resistance one puts in, it will be futile.

Just like when I faced the Flame Demon Queen.

They have no power or capital to control their own destiny.

"This time, we need to obtain as much information as possible without offending the other party."

Any information is acceptable; we know far too little right now.

"enough!"

While Karan was silently contemplating, the battle over there finally came to an end.

"Let's leave it at that, your proposal..."

The angry voice paused, then for some reason lowered in tone, before continuing in a deep voice after a long while:

"Don't bring it up again, there's no way we'll agree to that."

Ok?

Kalan glanced at the speaker and sensed a different meaning in the other person's reaction.

The other party's attitude seems to have softened somewhat compared to the beginning, and is no longer so tough.

What did they just say?

Karan, absorbed in his own world, didn't hear the details and didn't understand why the other person's behavior had changed so quickly.

"Apart from this, everything else is proceeding normally. Let's avoid any further mishaps."

"Meeting adjourned."

The representatives of each faction finally reached an agreement, exchanged glances, and silently disappeared into the darkness.

This meeting was very fruitful for everyone involved, and the information must be shared with the community as soon as possible, especially since someone had put forward that crazy idea...

As the agents slowly withdrew, Karan kept a cautious eye on the others, urging them to leave first.

And after seeing off the last person, her tension reached its peak.

Dongdong.

Will it appear?

She waited, her mind on edge, but nothing happened as time passed.

After everyone else left, the sacred sanctuary returned to its ancient and silent state, appearing solemn and dignified.

"........."

After a long wait with no change, and just when Karan thought he would never see that special being again...
