Chapter 1622

"How could you let it go? And how can you still hear its prayer? Did it connect to your faith network?" Nai Ge Li Si asked in astonishment.

The faith network is a mesh structure linked by faith elemental power, with believers and deities as nodes, and naturally the deity at the center; if you firmly believe in this deity, you can connect to the faith network and become a node within it, listening to the deity's teachings.

But the problem is, this is a soul guide, and Seeing Ange is not its deity, so how could it connect to Seeing Ange's faith network?

This is a very serious matter—stealing divine power and feigning faith is a grave act of blasphemy, punishable by being burned at the stake.

Initially, the gods of light, due to uneven distribution, introduced a main god seal, forming a hierarchical mesh network centered on the Light Main God, with the other light gods as subsidiaries; most faith feedback did not reach the gods, and the main god seal lacked autonomous consciousness at the time, so blaspheming the Light Main God was not difficult.

Moreover, many deities had fallen at that time, allowing apostates like Shama La to remain unharmed, further damaging the gods' dignity; but these are all due to the Church of Light, and do not mean the faith network is accessible to just anyone.

Yet now, Seeing Ange has connected to the soul guide's faith network—how could this happen? Is it really that easy?

Seeing Ange ignored Nai Ge Li Si, instead continuing to listen while projecting the soul guide's voice into his conscious space.

"Lord Law arrived so quickly this time—if he had come slower, I might have noticed the other party's abnormality. Damn fool, actually using such a huge god star as a trap. Fortunately, Lord Law is unharmed." The soul guide muttered with lingering fear, its voice clearly transmitted into Seeing Ange's thoughts.

This shows the faith network's strong control over believers—even their innermost thoughts are crystal clear. However, when the number of believers grows large, it's different; no deity would listen to believers' voices like 'daily wealth,' 'less hair loss,' 'seven times in one night,' or 'gums not bleeding'—that counts as information pollution.

Therefore, most deities, like Seeing Ange, shield out most prayers, accepting only those that are especially devout and intensely strong.

Of course, that refers to passive reception; if actively listening, as long as you remain in this network, your thoughts cannot escape the deity's ears—unless you leave the network.

Not being in this network means you've become an apostate, right?

This soul guide clearly holds deep devotion to the so-called Law Patrolers' faith, making its voice very clear: "I want to seize that star-flame embodiment, figure out what trap this is—now these god stars are going too far, daring to retaliate? Although their actions cannot harm Lord Law, we cannot encourage this trend."

Hearing this, Nai Ge Li Si couldn't help but ask: "Seeing Ange, did you really encounter a trap? Or is this guy just overthinking?"

Antony and Ursmann, among others, couldn't help but look up, gazing at the space above their consciousness, where a huge shadow flickered in and out of view.

If this truly is a trap, the meaning is entirely different—it signifies that the god stars, long slaughtered, have for the first time launched an active, organized counterattack; although the trap harmed Seeing Ange not at all, the active retaliation carries symbolic meaning.

No harm this time—what about next time? One day we will be able to wound or kill the foreign souls.

And Antony et al. know that foreign souls can be wounded, otherwise where would their soul fragments come from?

Seeing Ange pondered for a moment, then said: "Yes, star-flame, wanting to collapse—I used my seal to smooth it out."

"Hiss—really a trap? You used the seal from the sixth god star given to you, pressed it down?" Nai Ge Li Si translated.

Seeing Ange nodded.

"Then doesn't that mean, without the sixth god star's seal, the sixth god star might truly collapse and explode?" Nai Ge Li Si asked.

Seeing Ange thought for a moment, then nodded.

Everyone exchanged glances—if the god star erupts, it could truly destroy the foreign souls, after all, this is a god star with an explosive yield equivalent to sixty thousand small fire god stars.

Although it has aged and no longer gains mass, for explosion purposes, whether it gains mass or not doesn't matter—only the yield does.

"Then doesn't that mean we helped the foreign souls block the trap? If it's truly a foreign soul, without the sixth god star's seal, the god star would really explode—sixty thousand times the yield; even if it doesn't die, it would shatter into several pieces. The main star of Luomu Luo Er is so small it already wounded it." Nai Ge Li Si said regretfully.

The main star of Luomu Luo Er has only sixty-four times the mass of a small fire god star, while the sixth god star is sixty thousand times—fundamentally not the same level; if Luomu Luo Er's main star can wound the foreign soul, then the sixth god star certainly can.

"Where is the sixth god star? Where did it go?" Nai Ge Li Si asked, having spoken at length without hearing a response from the sixth god star—this concerns his very essence, so why no reaction at all?

Ursmann said: "He should be going to receive his main body; he previously had the Lord leave a projection point, and now he's likely already projected over to retrieve his main body."

As long as one leaves a projection point—such as white crystal, soul fire, or even a clone, like the non-mixed molten fire used against Gammez Fortress—based on it, a clone can survive in star-flame, and the sixth god star can directly project over, after which it's just a matter of time.

"Projected over so quickly, still wanting to ask him about those god stars dragging his main body—whether he knows any of them." Nai Ge Li Si said.

Antony shouted directly: "Melania, come in."

Only then did Nai Ge Li Si recall that Melania's dark stars likewise come from the Lan Ya mesh branch.

Antony asked: "Did you recognize those god stars just now?"

"Recognized—they're all Lan Ya's attendant stars; that star-flame embodiment is likely the leader among them—I call him Kai." Melania said.

"You recognized him? Why didn't you say so earlier?" Nai Ge Li Si snapped.

Melania weakly said: "I was just bracing the wall gap when Antony, my lord, called me—I came in after swapping places with someone."

"Alright, my mistake—how strong is that Kai Lan Ya? Why does Lan Ya have so many attendant stars?" Antony asked.

"Lan Ya conquered them and demanded they become his attendant stars; Kai… Kai Lan Ya is, aside from Lan Ya, the god star with the strongest combat power. Ordinary god stars have very stiff combat styles, but Kai Lan Ya's combat style does not resemble that of a god star—I don't even know how to describe it." Melania, unaccustomed to Antony's naming style, hesitated when saying Kai Lan Ya's name.
