Chapter 1689: Chapter 1690: The Temple Chapter 1689: Chapter 1690: The Temple Jesse's corpse provided Song Jian with over five hundred points of Divine, so much that it not only upgraded the Five Elements Escape Skill to divine level but also left some to spare.
Song Jian casually threw the remaining two hundred-plus Divine points onto the Power of Faith altar, upgrading it once, after all, upgrading the Power of Faith altar required an increase in divine power. A mere hundred or so Divine points could barely be exchanged for a dozen or so points of divine power, enough to raise the altar by only one level.
After the Power of Faith altar was upgraded by one level, Song Jian discovered that the collection of the Power of Faith nearly doubled in speed. Furthermore, a new category, Faith Divine Power, appeared in the resources section of the Divine Country, clearly indicating that the divine power converted from faith was somewhat different from ordinary divine power.
However, there was no difference in the application between Faith Divine Power and ordinary divine power. Anything that could be done with divine power could also be accomplished with Faith Divine Power.
Song Jian stared at the Faith Divine Power for a long time, still finding it hard to rest easy. He wasn't going to touch the Faith Divine Power until he fully understood if there were any side effects to using it.
The items dropped by Jesse, aside from a “Shattered Divinity,” were nothing more than a longbow. On the surface, this longbow appeared to be the same weapon Jesse had been wielding. Upon picking it up, a smile emerged on Song Jian's face.
This longbow was a mid-level divine power weapon with three types of attacks: flame attack, frost attack, and poison attack. Each time an attack type was switched, the appearance of the longbow would change, and the cooldown for switching was a full hour, meaning that the longbow could only release one type of attack at a time and could not unleash three types of attacks simultaneously like Jesse did.
The base damage of the longbow was already high, and with the ability to switch between three types of attacks at will, such a weapon would drive players crazy if it were auctioned. Unfortunately, at a minimum, demigods could wield it, and to truly capitalize on its power, one must comprehend the Laws of Flames, Frost Law, and poison as well.
For now, Song Jian could only barely use the flame attack form. He couldn't use the other two attack forms, and even if he switched, he would only inflict the base damage of the longbow without any elemental damage.
Song Jian carefully examined the longbow in his hands for a while. The quality of this longbow was even stronger than the Sky-breaking Sword, marking the first time he obtained such a fine weapon.
After examining it for a while, Song Jian casually tossed it into the Blazing Fire Furnace to begin smelting it for its Divine. A mid-level divine power weapon like this could be smelted for at least a hundred-plus points of Divine, which translated into more than ten points of divine power. To repair and expand the Shattered Divine Realm and to build and upgrade the Divine Country's structures, a lot of divine power was needed, and now he could only rely on these Divine items to obtain that power.
“Ordinary gods can condense divine power on their own by now, why haven't I been able to grasp it yet? Could it be that I'm a false god?” Song Jian thought a bit despondently.
Aside from weapons and divinity, Jesse had not dropped any other items. After a thorough search, Song Jian turned his gaze towards the temple with its doors wide open.
“Haha, this is where the real rewards lie!” Song Jian burst into laughter.
Walking into the temple, Song Jian could feel the desolation within. Dust covered everything, giving it a somewhat dilapidated look. There were signs of damage on the walls and pillars, and the once grand statues of gods had now turned into piles of rubble.
The statues in the temple were connected to the life force of the gods. Once a god falls, the statues within the god's temple would also crumble.
Song Jian merely glanced at the pile of rubble and continued walking towards the back of the temple.
After searching for an entire afternoon, Song Jian's figure reappeared in the grand hall of the temple, his face brimming with surprise and delight.
“Not bad, not bad, this can be considered as inheriting the legacy of the Goddess of Wisdom and Aggression…” Song Jian laughed heartily, “It seems I should also think of a divine name for myself, just like the titles of the God of Light and Sun God!”
Song Jian sat cross-legged in the spacious temple hall, gazing at the array of items in his inventory, and soon fell into deep thought.
This trip had been immensely rewarding for Song Jian; he had found three complete Powers of Law, specifically the Wisdom Law, the Aggression Law, and the War Law!
These three laws should belong to the domain that the Goddess of Wisdom and Aggression controlled. Unfortunately, with the fall of the goddess, most of the Powers of Law also shattered and broke apart, leaving only these three strongest laws of the goddess behind.
Just like the Power Laws that Song Jian already possessed, these three Powers of Law could be used directly, and once he had fully mastered these four Powers of Law, he would leap to become a mid-level divine power deity!
Above deities, it's no longer about rank, but the mastery of the Powers of Law, and with sufficient mastery, one can directly enhance their level and strength!
“I have already completely mastered the Time Law, comprehended the Law of Flames, and with these four laws now, that makes six Powers of Law. Even without counting the Law of Flames, I have five fully mastered Powers of Law, and even among mid-level divine power deities, I would not be considered weak!” Song Jian thought to himself.
Not only these three Powers of Law, but Song Jian had also obtained some books left behind by the goddess. Through these books, he had now mastered how to create divine power on his own.
In fact, it was not that Song Jian couldn't create divine power before, but to do so, it was necessary to have a temple of his own and then build a Divine Power Ancient Well!
In the construction list for the Shattered Divine Realm, there was also the existence of the Divine Power Ancient Well; however, constructing it required more than three hundred points of divine power, and previously, Song Jian didn't have that much. Had he known the importance of the Divine Power Ancient Well, he would have done anything to build it.
Beyond creating divine power, through these books, Song Jian also learned some basic knowledge about deities, as well as information regarding the Divine World and other races.
“I have already found the control core of the formation. The energy stones have almost been consumed. I must replenish energy stones, but that can be postponed. If I replace the energy, and the formation activates, it could expel me, and that would be the end of it.” Song Jian stroked his chin, thinking to himself, “The current priority is to take control of this temple, but now I'm like a cuckoo usurping the nest, do I take over this temple directly, or tear it down and rebuild a new one of my own?”
To occupy this temple would require the least expense, but renovating it would be too cumbersome. To cleanse the residual imprints of the goddess in the entire temple, and to repair some areas, would not be much easier than rebuilding from scratch.
The most important thing was, Song Jian had not yet decided on his divine name, and when the temple is completed, it must be imprinted with his divine name.
“Let's not worry about that for now; first, I need to enhance my own strength!” Song Jian muttered to himself. He took out the long-stored Power Laws from his inventory and began to integrate them into his body.
