Chapter 844: Divine Power

Yes, Gu Jieshuang’s mother, Gu Zhihan.

At this moment, I am sitting on a chair in the laboratory, crossing my legs and drinking hot tea.

Hearing this, Gu Zhihan turned his head and his eyes fell on the two of them.

Then, his brows raised slightly.

Yu Cang and Gu Jieshuang: "..."

After a moment of silence, Gu Zhihan said:

"Have you got it?"

! ?

Gu Jieshuang's face suddenly turned red.

This, this, this, what are you talking about!

Mom! Why are you talking nonsense?

In fact, the moment Gu Jieshuang saw Gu Zhihan, she felt something was wrong.

As a mixed-blood who is the guardian of the country, Gu Zhihan's perception ability is extremely sharp. The two of them interacted intensely all night long, and their auras can be said to be you in me and I in you. It’s okay for others, but in Gu Zhihan’s eyes, this is no different from saying it out loud.

So, the moment she entered the door, Gu Jieshuang felt guilty and frantically called out to her aunt in her heart, trying to get her to cool her down.

The effect was significant at first, but after Gu Zhihan said these three words, no cooling method was of any use.

His face suddenly turned red all the way to his ears.

"Mom! What are you talking about! We, we..."

"Hmm?" Gu Zhihan looked a little puzzled. "I'm asking Xiao Cang if he has found his own path to becoming a god."

Although she noticed something was wrong, they had been a couple for a long time and their relationship was quite good, so she couldn't say anything.

And as a mother, she also knew that Gu Jieshuang was thin-skinned.

So, seeing that Yu Cang's aura was already strong enough to stabilize the country, he used this as an opportunity to change the subject to avoid making the atmosphere too awkward.

The result... uh, backfired.

Gu Jieshuang: “…”

ah!

She controlled the urge to scream loudly, but the large amount of frost provided by her aunt was still evaporated into mist and slowly rose from her head.

Then, she walked silently to the next room, opened the door and went in.

This is so embarrassing! I can't face anyone!

…

Bang.

The door that Gu Jieshuang had just closed was pushed open again by her. Gu Jieshuang lowered her head and rushed forward, going into the next room.

Behind her, Lin Yunqing looked outside through the open door. Although his expression remained calm, a question mark slowly rose in his eyes.

Is this the defrost?

He suddenly rushed into his room and slammed the door shut. He glanced at himself and immediately opened the door and left without looking back.

She touched her face in confusion.

Were you scared by her?

Not really... Even though she's a "mad scientist," she's not the type to not shower or comb her hair...

…

Gu Jieshuang was completely flushed.

I wanted to go into a room alone to escape reality, but it turned out to be an occupied room.

In this state, it was naturally impossible for her to interact with Lin Yunqing, so she had to flee.

God, why torture an innocent girl like this?

After entering the empty room, he quickly got into a sofa and refused to get up no matter what.

And deep in his blood.

The aunt was wiping away cold sweat.

Oh my god, what happened to her? She has cooled down so much, but she still can’t calm down.

Sigh, I’m really getting old…Now that Gu Jieshuang’s strength has improved, she can hardly keep up…

…

"Ah...haha." Yu Cang laughed awkwardly twice. "Um, hello, Auntie...I'm still a little early on my own path to becoming a god...Um, Jie Shuang and I were discussing yesterday whether we should come visit you, and we bumped into each other today, what a coincidence."

Gu Zhihan: "...you young people, just have fun with yourselves, don't worry about me."

Now that I think about it, that sentence does seem to make me think a lot.

……never mind.

She seemed to sigh.

The same goes for Jie Shuang. Even if you think about it, this reaction is too big.

"Auntie, I heard from Jie Shuang that you have been traveling?"

"Yeah... I didn't see much when I was young, so now that I have some free time, I naturally want to wander around." Gu Zhihan stood up. "But, wandering around too much gets boring. So I thought, why not come and help out in your lab?"

"That's right."

Lin Yunqing finished the work at hand and walked out of the room.

"Senior Gu has helped a lot. Many experiments were able to move forward thanks to her. Welcome back, Senior."

"That's it." Yu Cang's expression straightened up a little. "Thank you very much, Auntie."

Gu Zhihan just smiled: "Excuse me - I also want to come and see your work environment, Xiao Cang."

In fact, Yu Cang once had a very good reputation in the Ancient Capital University, and there were also many rumors that he was a playboy.

The most outrageous thing is that no one knows who spread the rumor that Yu Cang likes to teach his granddaughter how to play with little Lolita.

Later, because someone intervened to clarify, this statement was no longer there.

But before it disappeared, it reached Gu Zhihan's ears.

In fact, Gu Zhihan believed in Yu Cang, but he couldn't help but become more and more curious, so he found some free time and came to Yu Cang's laboratory.

In fact, when she met Lin Yunqing, she probably knew where the rumor came from. However, after daily contact and testing, Gu Zhihan was finally relieved.

Sure enough, rumors are just rumors.

Xiao Cang is still quite reassuring.

"Is that so... Hahaha, you didn't even tell me."

"I just came to see you. I'll be leaving in two days." Gu Zhihan said, "Now that I'm well again, it's time for me to get back to work."

Gu Zhihan retired early because of hypothermia.

With her strength, there is no way she would be let go at such a young age.

Now the disease has been cured, and after a few months my body has almost recovered... As expected, the army came to call for help.

Well, after resting for so long, Gu Zhihan was already feeling a little itchy.

After all, she had broken through to the state-guarding realm and reached a new level. How could she do that without fighting?

Even if the troops didn't come looking for her, she would go back soon.

Upon hearing this, Yu Cang's expression changed slightly.

Then, he nodded seriously: "In that case...Auntie, please wait a moment. Before you leave, I will give you a gift."

"Hmm?" Gu Zhihan raised his eyebrows, but did not refuse and nodded in agreement.

"Xiao Cang, you're almost a god, aren't you?"

"It's still early."

Seeing Yu Cang still being modest, Gu Zhihan's eyes flashed with curiosity. She asked, "I've seen all the ways you've come up with to become a god. Did you think of this when you created those summoning methods?"

The connection and pendulum methods of becoming a god have now been widely tested within the country. It won't be long before we hear news of the birth of a new god. So of course Gu Zhihan also knows about it.

In fact, Ren Zheng was in charge of the path to becoming a god, and a few days ago, a country guardian almost died... Fortunately, Ren Zheng had great control and rescued the country guardian.

Gu Zhihan was also present that time and was quite impressed.

She could naturally see that although it was Ren Zheng and Ning Xingyi who became gods, these two paths to becoming gods actually came from Xiao Cang.

He was really curious - when the fusion was created, Yu Cang was only a third-level soul card master, right?

Is there really anyone who can have such a long-term vision?

Gu Zhihan instinctively felt that it was impossible, but when he thought about a genius like Yu Cang, it seemed somewhat reasonable.

"...Of course not." Yu Cang felt a little embarrassed.

This, isn't it thinking too highly of him?

When he was at level three, he just followed the ideas of his previous life and made a few cards with a recorder... Thinking about the road to becoming a god, it was already during the college league.

On the side, Lin Yunqing pushed his glasses and said, "Senior Gu, let me tell you, you are a humble person."

Yu Cang: "..."

It turns out that you were bragging to your aunt!

Lin Yunqing ignored Yu Cang's rather unfriendly look. She said, "By the way, Senior—you came back at the perfect time. Just two days ago, I received an email from the Intake Bureau."

Yu Cang raised his brows: "Is this from Cheng Mingye?"

What has this guy done to himself again?

Sure enough, Lin Yunqing nodded. "Yes—Senior Cheng has found the ritual method for achieving godhood. But he couldn't contact you, so he sent it here, telling you to reply as soon as you return."

As soon as these words came out, Yu Cang opened his eyes wide.

The path to godhood through ritual?

How could Cheng Mingye have figured this out...

It was normal that he couldn't be contacted. After all, a few days ago, he was still in the distant Roland Sky Realm. In that place, it was impossible for a personal terminal to have a signal.

He immediately became interested: "Quick, let me see it."

"Come with me."

Lin Yunqing took Yu Cang to another room, but Gu Zhihan just took a look and did not follow.

This kind of thing must be kept secret. Although a national guardian like her will come into contact with it sooner or later, before that, she'd better be self-conscious.

Thinking of this, she stood up and went to the laboratory door to get some fresh air.

…

"Ah! Boss, how did you get in?"

Yu Cang: "Um, that..."

Before he could finish his words, Gu Jieshuang covered her face and ran away again.

Although the pain has eased a lot now, it’s better not to see people if you can avoid it...

Before Yu Cang could say anything to keep her, Gu Jieshuang had disappeared.

Seeing this, he could only sigh and then focus his attention on the computer screen that Lin Yunqing had opened.

…

[All Promises Are Granted]: This soul card can end the death cooldown at any time and reconnect with the deck at any time.

…

Looking at the description of this soul card, Yu Cang's eyes flashed with thought.

Although it seemed difficult to understand, Yu Cang had already guessed and had a rough idea of ​​the ritual's path to deification, so when he saw it, he already had a rough idea in his mind.

He continued to scroll down, and then he saw the data of another soul card.

…

Soul Card Name: God Will Fall in Blasphemy and Love

Category: Spell Card

Quality: Mythical

Attribute: Dark

ability:

【？ ？ 】：？ ？

…

This soul card...

Yu Cang turned his gaze to the description left by Cheng Mingye, and sure enough - this soul card was Madam Yu's "exclusive ritual spell card".

Then, [The Gods Will Ascend] is easy to understand.

Ordinary ritual spells cannot summon the Divine Self. So, how do I summon the Divine Self for the first time?

The answer is to plan and carry out an epic event as a ritual for your own deification!

And that event will become your own exclusive ritual spell card after successfully summoning it.

This soul card in front of me was obtained in this way.

After a long period of planning, Madam Yu finally dismembered the God of Desolation in a blasphemous manner in a fragment of the Desolate Heaven.

This series of feats was truly epic, fulfilling the definition of a rite of apotheosis… The event itself became a grand ritual leading to mythology.

In other words, at that time, if the Divine Power I had been researched, Madam Yu would have become a legend.

But unfortunately, there is no if, Mrs. Yu is dead forever.

Even though Cheng Mingye later made this ritual spell card, he would never have the chance to use it - this card was an exclusive ritual spell card, and the question mark in its ability would only be eliminated when it was in the hands of Mrs. Yu herself, and no one else could use it at all.

Yu Cang clicked his tongue.

From this point of view, we can guess how Cheng Mingye created this powerful self.

The "I" of the ritual is the I of my name, and this path is inherently related to my true name.

The research related to the real name left by Mrs. Yu is now in Wen Yang's hands, that is, in Cheng Mingye's hands.

In addition to Cheng Mingye's intuitive feeling about Zhenming from the Zhenlong Death Land incident, it is reasonable for him to make this soul card.

However, just when Yu Cang was thinking this, he saw a sentence left by Cheng Mingye at the end of the document.

"Hmm?" Yu Cang raised his brows. "This soul card was made by Zhao Yang?"

After a moment of hesitation, he smiled.

Zhao Yang... is indeed a genius who once dominated an era.

He created a masterpiece at the age of fourteen, and his life was frozen for five years after that. Now that he has just been thawed, has he touched the realm of God?

He truly deserves the title of genius.

Thinking of this, he rubbed his chin.

Since it was Zhao Yang who did it, let’s make a phone call later.

If it was Cheng Mingye, it would be fine. He didn't want to praise that guy.

Thinking of this, he turned his attention back to his divine self.

After reading it carefully several times, he nodded.

Sure enough, it was just as he thought.

"Now, has anyone become a god by relying on my divine power?"

Lin Yunqing shook his head: "Not yet."

"……Too."

Although the road is complete, ritual summoning was originally a banned method after all. I think the association will not allow any national guardian to try it without my approval.
