Chapter 3054: Be a Good God

Perhaps because the Ancient God in this world was dead, the cumulus clouds above the Cloud Top dispersed somewhat, and the sun revealed a small half.

Su Xiao sat on a stone tablet several meters high. He tried to move his left arm. Although only bones remained, when he constructed the arm outline with crystals, the dust-particle-form Exile mixed into the crystal arm, so he could move the arm by controlling the Exile.

Most of the wounds on Su Xiao's body had healed. If there were battles later, the situation would be very bad. He had been injured too severely in this battle. If he didn't have the Black King Armguard, he would have fallen into a near-death state at least three times.

【Prompt: You have killed the Feather God · Hegla.】

【You obtained 29.94% of the World's Source.】

【You obtained 3340 Soul Coins, which can be used to exchange for required rewards from the following rewards.】

1. God Bone (Rare item, exclusive reward for God-Slaying)

Prompt: This item is Immortal-grade. Three God Bones can synthesize a God's Miracle.

Price: 150 Soul Coins.

2. Source Blood · Extreme Dark Bloodline (Profession/Bloodline item)

Prompt: This item has been converted/purified, sacrificing Ancient God characteristics to obtain stability and compatibility.

Price: 7800 Soul Coins.

3. Mental Mark (General type · Profession/Bloodline item)

Prompt: This item can only be used by mental/magic types, etc. After use, it will form a "Mental Mark" in the brain, significantly increasing mental strength, as well as mental power extensibility, controllability, tolerance, etc.

Price: 850 Soul Coins.

4. Eye Ritual (Knowledge-type skill)

Prompt: This is a unique technique from the Star Fall Continent, pioneered by the scholar faction led by "Yargu," mostly used for the gestation of Ancient God children, the growth of eyes, etc. Scholars believe that more eyes will bring more powerful strength, or see certain different existences. They use "eyes" as a medium to listen to knowledge that is enough to make people go crazy, yet ancient, or in a more direct way, cultivate "newborn eyes" on the body to get closer to that knowledge. In most cases, scholars of the "Yargu faction" take madness as pleasure.

Prompt: There are two major factions of the Eye Ritual. This is the knowledge passed down by the relatively rational faction, using "eyes" as tools and staying away from madness.

Price: 6500 Soul Coins.

There were four items in total that could be exchanged. Su Xiao bought the 【God Bone (Immortal-grade)】 and the 【Mental Mark】. The former was a unique reward after killing an Ancient God, and the price in the kill reward list was very low.

【Mental Mark】 was a general-type enhancement ability that could not be improved in any way. Because of its effect, this type of item was very popular in the Reincarnation Paradise.

【Source Blood · Extreme Dark Bloodline】 was a deleted version of the Feather God's power. Without the Ancient God's characteristics, its strength would be reduced very low. There was no way around this; if these characteristics weren't removed, a contractor would almost certainly die after using it. Very few people, like the Priest, could snatch and master the power of an Ancient God.

Su Xiao did not intend to exchange for this thing. The development cycle was too long. What Baha obtained was the Source Blood · Sky Bloodline, and that was a long time ago. After that, Baha had been "playing soy sauce" in battles for a long time—not that it didn't want to assist, but it would die if it went up.

The power of 【Source Blood · Extreme Dark Bloodline】 was unquestionable, but what made it awkward was that the strong in the eighth tier all had their own systems, and the contractors who craved this thing simply couldn't afford it.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu, and Benny couldn't use this thing, and Su Xiao himself couldn't use it even more. To prevent it from being stuck in his hands, Su Xiao decided not to exchange for it; it would likely be a loss.

As for the final 【Eye Ritual】, Su Xiao was very interested in this thing. Of course, he wouldn't transplant various "eyes" onto himself or his followers, but he was an alchemist, an alchemist who had mastered biology.

First, create a temporary alchemy creature, transplant "eyes" onto it, and by sacrificing this temporary alchemy creature, obtain different knowledge—this was a very good choice.

Furthermore, Su Xiao felt that the "Eye Ritual" was actually just a relatively dark enhancement or enchantment performed by cultivating various eyes and using eyes as a medium. No matter how bizarre the process was, this essence would not change.

This was knowledge, not an ability, and would not affect himself. Su Xiao had a hypothesis: by cultivating "eyes," use "eyes" to enhance the devourer. Anyway, that thing had hunger and darkness characteristics; perhaps it had a certain degree of resonance with the "Eye Ritual."

The only drawback of the "Eye Ritual" was that it was too expensive. The price was as high as 6500 Soul Coins, and that was the price in the kill reward list; otherwise, it would be ridiculously expensive.

Su Xiao had a feeling that the biggest gain from killing the Feather God this time might not be the God Bone or the World's Source, but the "Eye Ritual."

The Star Fall Continent was a very ancient place. Knowledge that could be passed down there was definitely very reliable, not to mention knowledge recognized by Ancient Gods. If it weren't reliable, those scholars would have long been used as sacrificial materials by the Ancient Gods.

Su Xiao completed the exchange, and a scroll that looked pitch-black and exuded a faint bloody smell appeared in his hand. He opened the scroll, and eyes opened one by one from within the scroll.

*Snap! * The scroll shattered, and Su Xiao felt a sharp pain in his head. This was caused by accepting a massive amount of knowledge.

The scroll fragments and all the eyeballs dissolved into the air. Su Xiao let out a long breath. The "Eye Ritual" was even more wonderful than he had imagined. This knowledge was divided into two factions.

One faction focused on implantation, covering the body with eyes. The other faction emphasized maintaining a safe distance from "eyes," transplanting "eyes" onto objects or irrational creatures, and never contacting "eyes" oneself.

The two factions looked at each other as idiots. Su Xiao preferred the latter: using "eyes" as tools or items, cultivating functional "eyes," rather than treating "eyes" as different energy sensors.

Su Xiao felt that it might not be long before the devourer had another "art style," completely different from himself, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu, Baha, or Benny. As a weapon, what the devourer became wasn't the point; being strong enough was what mattered.

Su Xiao walked toward the south side of the Cloud Top. There was no need to stay here anymore. The 【Eye of the Star】 required for the main quest had been stripped from the Feather God's body just after he defeated the Feather God. Su Xiao hadn't even seen the appearance of that thing clearly before it was taken away by the Reincarnation Paradise.

In the ethereal clouds and mist, a stone pillar stood tall in front. Su Xiao pressed one hand on it, and a falling sensation struck.

When the clouds and mist in front of Su Xiao disappeared, he was already in the Great Cathedral of the Dream World. *Bang! * Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang landed behind him.

"Woof~"

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was thrown into a mess. Just at this time, Baha and Amu landed, piling up like arhats on Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang.

Su Xiao walked toward the outside of the Great Cathedral. Just as he left the Great Cathedral, a roar came from the distance. The melee between the Soul Zhong Ta and the Kodo School was still continuing.

In the Ancient God faction, everyone wearing white bone rings felt that the Feather God had fallen just now.

Footsteps came from the front. Su Xiao turned his head to look. It was the Goddess of Repentance · Sataye, holding a repentance scythe. Half of her body was somewhat transparent, and she was carrying a head in her hand. This head had been burned until it was completely charred, and its original appearance could not be seen.

"The Great Sage has escaped."

Sataye released the head in her hand. This was indeed the Great Sage's head. The Great Sage only had his body die; his consciousness and soul had not died but had escaped using some secret method. It was normal for this old guy who was very good at surviving to leave himself a way out.

"Escaped? Where did he escape to?"

Baha decided to pursue and kill the Great Sage. Either don't be hostile, or kill them all.

"His consciousness escaped to the spiritual world connected to the Dream World. I should have thought of this long ago, but... hatred blinded my heart."

The Goddess · Sataye's expression was calm. She was prepared to pursue and kill the Great Sage until she died, or the Great Sage died.

"Uh~, escaped to the spiritual world? Awesome."

Baha was somewhat speechless. There was no need to pursue and kill the Great Sage anymore. In the spiritual world, there was a nearly unsolvable existence—the blood energy projection. If the Great Sage's spiritual body bumped into it, the result could be imagined.

Southwest of the continent, on a desolate plain, the ground was full of withered grass and gravel, and a giant tree grew here very abruptly.

The origin of this giant tree was not simple. It was an "Ancient God" eroded by acquired reasons. In reality, it was not an Ancient God at all; it was just an evil god severely eroded by Ancient God energy. For a long time, the Feather God had prepared to kill it casually, lest it call itself an Ancient God and lose face for the Ancient Gods.

That's right, this giant tree was the Tree God. Because the Feather God was freed, it successfully escaped secretly from a crack in the seal.

When it first escaped, the Tree God's thought was that it would accumulate strength and make those who looked down on it pay the price.

Just when the Tree God wanted to find its former allies and pit them against each other to seize power, it discovered that the enemy was no longer there. The divine palace where the other party lived had become ruins, and violent soul energy was scattered in the air.

The Tree God immediately thought that the Soul Zhong Ta had killed or captured the Mother God. This made the Tree God harbor thoughts of retreating. The Mother God was already a very powerful existence, and even so, she still couldn't defeat those crazy scholars who opened holes in their own heads.

The Tree God didn't give up. The benchmark it looked up to was still there, so it came here to take root, preparing to accumulate strength.

Just now, the Tree God suddenly sensed that the Feather God · Hegla had actually fallen. This made it terrified in its heart. Could such a powerful Ancient God also fall? At the same time, the Tree God's wish to become an Ancient God wavered.

A gust of wind struck, and a single eye appeared on the giant tree. This single eye's gaze was very vicissitudinous. At this moment, all kinds of past events surged into its heart.

For example, being defeated by the Mother God and locked up, then reconciling, then being caught by the Great Sage, being sealed by the King of Light, the Spider Queen, etc. Being sealed was one thing, but those terrifying humans also created things called containers. Since then, the Tree God often "moved house," being locked in different semi-finished containers.

For a long time, the Tree God wanted to yield, but as an evil god possessing Ancient God energy, it finally gritted its teeth and persisted.

After that was the long life of being sealed and "breaking out of prison." First, it was beaten by the Moon Spirit, then it was casually hit by a hammer by the Demon Blacksmith, almost being wiped out. It finally managed to heal its injuries and successfully broke out of prison, only to encounter a very professional Ancient God Hunter. The Tree God was certain that those must be Ancient God Hunters.

Mother God, King of Light, Great Sage, Spider Queen, Ancient God Hunter—one face after another was recalled by the Tree God. Its trunk trembled, and a few leaves fell off. It suddenly felt that it was safer to be a tree. It would be a good god in the future; being an evil god was too dangerous and it was always being bullied. ===== CHAPTER 3055 =====
