Chapter 1649: Chapter 1650: Power of Faith Chapter 1649: Chapter 1650: Power of Faith City of Hope, Wang Qi was handling public affairs, his spacious desk piled high with documents that required his signature. He scrutinized each one carefully before signing his name and stamping it with the Vice City Lord's seal.
He set aside certain documents that needed the City Lord seal, planning to have them all signed at once upon Song Jian's return!
“Sigh, I wonder if Song Jian has encountered the divine sea creature yet. Demi-God Level monsters are not so easy to hunt…” A few hours later, having nearly finished with the documents, Wang Qi put down the Vice City Lord seal and rubbed his brow, a sense of worry creeping into his heart unbidden.
“No, I must prepare something. I can't just turn to the City Lord to solve every difficulty…” Wang Qi shook his head, talking to himself.
“Li Yong, notify the city guard army to have them…” Wang Qi activated the communicator, ready to arrange a team composed entirely of Legendary Realm elite players to track and hunt the Demi-God Level sea creature.
Just then, the door to the room burst open with a “bang,” and Song Jian strode in.
“City Lord?” Wang Qi stared, then promptly shut off the communicator. He didn't want Song Jian to find out about sending the Hunt and Kill Squad–it would make Song Jian doubt his capabilities.
“Hmm, busy?” Song Jian glanced at the documents on the desk and asked casually.
“Not bad…” Wang Qi felt puzzled. Song Jian had returned in just a few hours, suggesting that the Demi-God Level sea creature was hard to find.
“City Lord, shall I dispatch someone to track the Demi-God Level sea creature first, and once we've confirmed its location, go for the hunt and kill?” Wang Qi asked.
Clang~
A dazzling crystal was tossed onto the desk by Song Jian, startling Wang Qi. It was only when he picked up the crystal and inspected its properties that he realized with great shock that it was actually the core of a divine BOSS.
“This is… the core of a divine sea creature?” Wang Qi's expression revealed his surprise; he couldn't fathom how Song Jian had acquired the needed core in just half a day.
“No, this isn't the core of a Demi-God Level BOSS, this, this is a god-level BOSS's core?” Wang Qi stood up in astonishment, looking incredulously at Song Jian.
“Lucky, I encountered a god-level BOSS that had just emerged from its seal and was in a weakened state,” Song Jian said lightly.
The more casually Song Jian spoke, the more Wang Qi could perceive Song Jian's incredible strength.
Wang Qi didn't say anything more but opened the communicator and immediately began contacting people. The most difficult divine core to find had been acquired, yet the other materials he was responsible for would still take some time, which made Wang Qi feel somewhat embarrassed. Naturally, his tone of voice became somewhat stern.
Song Jian watched from the side with a faint smile. Wang Qi was increasingly embodying the stature of a City Lord, and Song Jian believed that even if he left one day, Wang Qi would manage the entire City of Hope very well.
During the following days, Song Jian didn't go out but instead quietly reflected on the Time Law. After devouring the essence of the Law, his proficiency with the Time Law grew higher, and his understanding of it deepened. He had a feeling that it wouldn't be long before he would fully master the laws of the world.
“As long as I can completely master the Time Law, I can directly advance to a god-level powerhouse!” Song Jian thought to himself.
Just then, Song Jian faintly heard a chanting prayer within his mind. When he focused on the chanting, an image suddenly appeared in his mind.
Underneath a gigantic tree that was over three hundred meters in diameter, a group of strangely shaped natives was kneeling in prayer. In front of them, five Paso Fruits were placed.
Song Jian smiled slightly; it seemed the Paso Fruit Tree had matured again, and this time it had actually produced five Posuo Fruits.
With just a thought, Song Jian instantly traversed the River of Time and Space and arrived in the Shattered Universe.
Standing atop the towering World Tree and looking down, he saw dozens of figures in the Legendary Realm kneeling in front of the World Tree. Seemingly sensing something, these legendary beings looked up and saw the silhouette of Song Jian, which made the natives even more excited.
“These people have completely come to worship me as a god,” Song Jian whispered with a smile.
In fact, those of Demi-God Level could claim to be gods; many evil gods in history were only at the Demi-God Level. However, these Demi-God Level powerhouses only dared to develop covertly underground, not bold enough to establish their own religion like the God of Light and the Goddess of Dawn, nor collect the Power of Faith.
Song Jian gestured with his right hand, and the five Posuo Fruits floated towards him. On closer inspection, the Law Fragments contained within the five Posuo Fruits were quite ordinary: one contained aggressive Law Fragments, two held the Law of Flames Fragments, and two contained sturdy Law Fragments.
“It seems that the chance of finding Time Law or Space Law Fragments is quite small; I really was lucky that time,” Song Jian mused to himself.
Theoretically, the Law Fragments contained within Paso Fruits are random, embracing all the laws of the game world. However, the probability of each type of law emerging differs; the rarer and more powerful the law, the less likely it is to appear.
But Song Jian didn't care about these. He only needed the essence of the laws transformed by the Posuo Fruit to nurture his Time Law.
Just as Song Jian had collected the Posuo Fruit and was about to leave, a translucent breath wafted upwards from below and quickly entered his body.
Song Jian immediately noticed something was amiss and was about to investigate carefully when the breath, without any hindrance, appeared within the Shattered Divine Realm.
Song Jian's expression changed drastically; this was the first time he had encountered something he had no resistance against, which meant that if this breath represented an enemy, he would be defenseless and powerless in front of it.
In an instant, Song Jian's silhouette appeared in the Shattered Divine Realm, with his Divine Thought spreading out far and wide, searching for the trace of the breath. Soon, Song Jian felt something odd.
The breath had appeared on the high mountain at the center of the Divine Country. It was worth noting that Song Jian's divine seat was at the peak of this mountain, and the breath was lingering right in front of the divine seat.
As Song Jian puzzled over this, the breath began to change. In a short while, a crude stone altar appeared in front of the divine seat. In the center of the altar, a vortex as thick as a finger emerged, slowly emitting wisp after wisp of a faint fragrance.
Song Jian's gaze fell on this crude stone altar, and soon, the properties of the altar appeared before his eyes.
