My talent panel can be increased

Basic Attributes: Strength: 72, Agility: 65, Constitution: 76, Spirit: 80

[Talent: Holy Light Physique (A+)]

[Abilities: Holy Light, Holy Judgment, Holy Sword, Divine Affinity]

Ye Mingqiu roughly understood that the reason this person hadn't died was because she possessed a Holy Light physique that was naturally compatible with Holy Light, so the [Holy Power] hadn't caused her fatal injury.

But

Why did her strength increase? I didn't use any empowerment on her, I just infused her with [Divine Power], so why did she become a Level 2 Overlord? Where did her power for advancement come from?

[Hint: Side Quest - The Girl's Wish has been completed]

Ye Mingqiu ignored the notification that the mission was completed and simply pondered silently.

Ultimately, he concluded that the fundamental reason the girl had advanced to become a ruler was because almost all life in this world was countered by holy light. Therefore, even though her strength had fallen to level 2, she had still genuinely become stronger compared to other cursed life forms.

It was precisely because her strength increased that she advanced from a monarch to a hegemon.

interesting!

A smile appeared on Ye Mingqiu's face. He was now very curious about something: now that he had become the [Lord of Light and Shadow] and possessed his own apostle, what interesting things would happen if the apostle's strength and influence grew even stronger?

In the spirit world, faith can truly be transformed into power. If faith could not be transformed into power, then many gods would not develop followers. The core reason why the Blood God Cult followers of the evil god Blood God attacked Ye Mingqiu was also for the power of the Blood God.

Power is the bond that connects believers and deities. Deities give power to believers, and believers give back to deities through their faith. Different faiths can give rise to different powers.

But

Ye Mingqiu, currently the Lord of Light and Shadow, did not feel the amplification of faith. He did not doubt the girl's faith; he could feel that pure faith. The reason he could not receive the amplification was probably because, compared to other gods, he lacked something to support his faith.

Is it because it lacks divinity?

Or is it something else?

Chapter 138 The Primordial Lord of Light and Shadow

To truly become a god, one must obtain a "core" sufficient to bear the power of faith, and such a "core" is something that normal psychics can neither encounter nor seek.

There is no record of achieving clergy through faith in either school textbooks or on websites related to psychics.

At most, it's just some people fantasizing and going crazy; it has absolutely no nutritional value.

Therefore, there is absolutely no information available publicly about absorbing the core of faith power.

But

Does the lack of overt intelligence truly mean there are no channels available?

There are actually still some.

That's the title module in the spirit realm's settlement process.

Titles are actually very difficult to obtain; one cannot obtain a title without making sufficient contributions in exploring the spirit world.

However, if one accomplishes a special "great deed" in the spirit world, one can obtain a corresponding title.

Ye Mingqiu slaughtered everyone in the world of "The Fall of Chaoge," becoming like a god of death, and thus he earned the title of "God of Death."

Ye Mingqiu hunted down the Crimson Shadows in the world of [Crimson Shadow Era], and his fierce killing earned him the title of [Hunter].

Ye Mingqiu killed the remains of an ancient god in the world of [Eludnis], achieving remarkable feats, and thus he obtained the title of [Godslayer].

Ye Mingqiu became the King of the Orcs in the world of [Eridoa], achieving great feats in battle, and thus he earned the title of [Bloodthirsty Tyrant].

Therefore, the title one receives in the final settlement in the spirit world depends entirely on one's achievements and performance in the world. The spirit world will bestow corresponding titles upon spiritual beings based on their performance and achievements.

Then

If Ye Mingqiu continues to maintain the majesty and power of the Lord of Light and Shadow, he can create his own great achievements and miracles in the world of the Silent Corridor.

Therefore, in the final settlement in the spirit world, he will most likely directly obtain the title of "Lord of Light and Shadow".

The character "Lord of Light and Shadow," played by Ye Mingqiu, happens to be a god worshipped, so it's only natural that the title possesses the ability to store and transform the power of "faith."

And this is the core of gaining the power of faith and achieving a higher level.

With the goal clearly defined, the next step is clear: continue to spread His unique miracles in this special world as the Lord of Light and Shadow, and extinguish more cursed lives.

Ye Mingqiu glanced at the main quest.

Main Quest - Survival

Mission objective: Survive for more than 24 hours in the world of Silent Corridor.

Task Reward: Skill Advancement Book.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the silent corridor

Ye Mingqiu wasn't the only one exploring this special world; a team, the Morning Star Team, also joined in.

Roger, the captain of Morning Star, is a middle-aged tank wielding a tower shield. At this moment, his teammates beside him are also resting, panting, and vigilantly watching their surroundings.

Not long ago, they worked together to kill a small group of [Wandering Shadows] attracted by a faint sound. These were monsters with a perverse obsession with sound, and their strength hovered around level 3 bosses, making them very difficult for ordinary psionicists to deal with.

Although no one was injured in the battle, a mage was splashed with corrosive liquid from the mouthparts of the Wandering Shadow, and his arm was severely corroded, with the bone already visible. He was receiving emergency treatment from a support priest.

Fine beads of sweat dripped from the priest's forehead as he repeatedly used Purify. However, Purify, being only at the Elite level, wasn't very effective against the corruption of Boss-level monsters, requiring multiple uses to completely remove it.

[Elite Level] The support level may seem low, but it is actually quite good. Support characters have always been extremely rare. High-level support characters are top-notch teammates that are hard to come by in the Spirit Realm, and all kinds of major forces are vying for them.

After all, it's really difficult for support classes to obtain high-level professions in the initial trials. Generally, support classes above the lord level are advanced later, rather than being obtained all at once.

Chen Ran becoming a lord-level support is essentially like obtaining a ticket to cross social classes.

The scout on guard was pale and his eyes were somewhat unfocused, clearly affected by the "rationality contamination" effect during his exploration of the spirit world.

The world of the Silent Corridor is itself a huge source of pollution. The more you try to understand it, the easier it is to be eroded and polluted by your sanity, swallowed up by the Silent Corridor, and become part of the world. But psionicists cannot blindly explore the world without understanding it, or they are more likely to die suddenly.

So this becomes a vicious cycle: either you understand the world, your sanity is eroded, and you die a slow death; or you don't understand the world, maintain your sanity, encounter a monster of unknown strength, and die at the speed of light.

"Damn it. I shouldn't have used the team-building card in the first place. It would have been so much better to sell it. Why did I have to come here and challenge this kind of world?" the scout muttered to himself, a strange light flashing in his eyes.

The priest used Purify again, finally erasing the curse marks on the mage's arm completely. He wiped the sweat from his brow, looked at the nearly half-empty mana potions in his storage space, and his smile gradually faded.

Supplies are running out.

He didn't speak, but the other team members weren't fools; they could tell how many mana potions the priest had used, hence their bad mood. However, they had to expend a lot of resources to purify the negative effects; if they didn't, who knew how badly the curse would corrupt them?

What's even more terrifying is that purification isn't only needed when someone is injured. Even uninjured team members can be affected by the environment and must undergo purification by a priest to gradually reduce the impact.

The weariness and the pervasive, eroding rationality of the silent corridors weighed heavily on everyone's hearts like a boulder. An atmosphere of despair gradually permeated the silent world, but no one could speak, for this world was under the "silent curse."

It is precisely because of the [Silent Curse] that the team members' depression is difficult to alleviate, and their rationality is further squeezed to the extreme.

At this moment of despair, Captain Roger started typing in the channel to boost morale.

"Hold on! We'll find a way out! If we can survive for another 24 hours, we'll succeed!"

This is the only way to encourage them.

Looking at the expressions of the other members, he could sense their confusion and panic. One of the girls, a Sagittarius, had trembling eyes, as if she was about to explode and vent her emotions.

But she didn't do that.

Because she knew that once she did that, the Morning Star Clan would suffer terror, and curses and cursed life would engulf them like a tidal wave, devouring everyone in the group until nothing was left.

Running through deathly despair—that is the terror of the Silent Corridor.

"Whoo~"

Suddenly, a warm breeze blew in.

A warm and vast wave surged forth from the depths of the corridor like a tide, bringing with it a free and warm breeze, and an atmosphere full of hope.

Immediately afterwards, the sacred light of order emanated from the entire bizarre world, covering objects that distorted time, lands and rubble that were spatially disordered, and every inch of land tainted by the power of the curse.

The eerie moss that writhed on the wall withered and died in an instant, for it too was a cursed life form and could not withstand the light of the [divine power].

The pebbles in mid-air landed with a few crisp sounds, and the rats, whose time had been frozen, regained their lives and fled in terror. The terror that permeated the air vanished, and the omnipresent eeriness disappeared as well.

The distorted world seemed to be smoothed out again by an invisible hand of rules. The bizarre and colorful light spread again according to the laws of physics, becoming soft and stable. This scene, which was like a miracle, shocked all the members of the Morning Star Team.

They instinctively looked in the direction of the light source.

The Lord of Light and Shadow Arrives

A figure, shrouded in flowing gray gauze and containing the essence of a galaxy, slowly approached. His very existence seemed to be an anchor of order, and the holy light emanating from his body dispelled the surrounding chaos and filth, as if the power of the curse had been completely devoured.

A flock of black crows circled around the Lord of Light and Shadow, making noises from time to time.

Sound is taboo. In the Silent Corridor world, which is cursed with the "Silence Curse," all sounds bring terror and curses. However, the crows of the "Lord of Light and Shadow" seem to be able to break this curse.

Behind the Lord of Light and Shadow followed a white-robed girl radiating soft holy light, her gaze devout and serene.

Team Channel

Mo Shengqi: Has a god descended? So holy, such a powerful aura!

Roger: Be careful, don't make any rash moves. This is the world of the Silent Corridor. Anything that appears in this kind of world is definitely not something simple.

Miaofansi: I have a feeling that this guy might be the final boss of the world, or at least he's on the same level.

Miao Fansi: Have you noticed that after His arrival, the distorted world laws of the Silent Corridor were corrected by an invisible force? His existence seems to be an absolutely unshakable anchor point, and curses cannot appear around Him.

Roger: Then we need to be even more careful. Beings of that level can wipe us out with a flick of their fingers. We absolutely cannot provoke them.

Roger: Be careful, don't act rashly.

The next moment, the information about the gray-robed deity was naturally revealed to everyone, demonstrating that the deity did not bother to conceal its strength.

Lord of Light and Shadow (Level 4 Overlord)

Race: Unknown

[Basic Attributes: Strength: ?, Agility: ?, Constitution: ?, Spirit: ?]

【ability:???】

Overlord! A powerful overlord-level expert!

This guy is really not simple!

The members of the Morning Star Clan were instantly horrified, but at the same time, they felt somewhat fortunate, because if the Lord of Light and Shadow wanted to kill them, there was no need for him to reveal his information, and they should not be killed.

However, no one knows what they will encounter.

Captain Roger's heart nearly leaped out of his chest. He frantically held down the assassin beside him, who instinctively tried to raise his dagger in defense. Against such a being, any resistance was futile, and might even be seen as provocation, resulting in immediate death.

The Lord of Light and Shadow stopped not far in front of the Morning Star Group, his starry gaze sweeping over everyone. His undisguised instinctive perception rippled through them, and his gaze seemed to see through everything about them, directly piercing through the strength of the team members.

A group of level 6-8 lords and elites?

They don't even have a single hero-level character. The fact that guys of that caliber can form a team shows they're a group of people with dreams.

A moment later, a clear and calm voice rang out, completely ignoring the [Silent Curse] in the silent corridor, echoing within the radiant space:

"An outsider from another world?"

He spoke! He spoke!

And the sound was surprisingly loud!

He actually spoke within the world of the Silent Corridor, completely ignoring the Silent Curse!

The members of the Morning Star Clan instantly erupted in chaos. More than the words themselves, they were terrified that the other party knew they came from another world and were not locals. This meant that the other party was at least a being who could transcend this world.

Team Channel

Meowfans: Holy crap! It can talk! This means it has transcended the rules of this world! The [Silent Curse] of this world cannot affect it!

Mo Shengqi: What do you mean? Do we need to speak with the Lord of Light and Shadow? What should we do?

Lonely City: Opportunity! This might be our most important chance to survive! Can you feel it? He seems very interested in us outsiders. If we offer a deal, we might be able to get His protection.

Roger: Although it's somewhat dangerous, it's definitely worth a try. Judging from the current performance of the Lord of Light and Shadow, He shouldn't be a representative of Chaos or the evil faction; He's someone you can communicate with.

Roger: If nothing unexpected happens, what we are seeing now is not the real Lord of Light and Shadow, but a projection of the real Lord, which is the limit that this world can bear.

Mo Shengqi: So what should we do? Should we take the initiative to propose a deal with them?

Miaofansi: Have you lost all your sanity? You even made a deal with the [Lord of Light and Shadow]? Are you really afraid you won't die fast enough!

Mo Shengqi: What should we do then?

Miao Fansi: Offering treasures, without saying anything, actively offer the other party something precious, and then gamble with your life. If you succeed, you win; if you lose, you die.
