"It's like a pillow coming just when you're sleepy."
Jiang Yan looked at the resource panel with satisfaction; the total number of Soul Crystals had increased from over 20 million to nearly 50 million.
He has now reached the tenth level of demigod and is about to become a god. The construction of the divine kingdom requires a large number of soul crystals.
Although most of these hundreds of thousands of lords could only contribute 10-20 soul crystals to him, the sheer number of them, along with the presence of a tycoon like the Sixth Princess, made up for it.
After trying out the title function, Jiang Yan looked at the remaining two items.
Mission Completion Card - Perfect: This card, which comes at a great cost to all realms, helps you complete a mission immediately, regardless of difficulty.
Mythical Selection Box: Choose one item from Resources, Faith Power, Divine Kingdom Treasures, and Functional Items.
Needless to say, the former already had a plan in mind.
As for the latter...
Jiang Yan suddenly remembered that after the 15th Abyss Trial, he was given a Mythical-level resource selection box, but when he opened it, it turned out to be a Legendary-level item!
This is outrageous!
Having learned his lesson, Jiang Yan activated his ability without hesitation this time.
Lord Skill: Some Orders Are Not Acceptable.
The treasure chest disappeared, and a moment later, a treasure chest shimmering with seven-colored light reappeared in front of us.
[You have obtained a True Mythical-grade Resource Selection Box, which guarantees a Mythical-grade item of equivalent value.]
"That's more like it."
Jiang Yan took the treasure chest; the options inside were similar to those before.
He chose the divine treasure as he had done before.
Now that his clans are powerful enough, all he needs to do is strengthen himself and avoid becoming a weak point.
To avoid needing Anna and the others to stay by your side for protection in every battle.
A flash of multicolored light appeared, and a miniature, ancient clock tower appeared inside the treasure chest.
[Ding! You have obtained the Mythical Divine Kingdom Treasure - Floating World Bell. You can view its effects after placing it in your Divine Kingdom.]
Satisfied, Jiang Yan put away the treasure and called out, "Let's go, get ready to return."
He planned to draw a mission and advance to godhood after returning to Holy Spirit City, since it was his first time and he wanted to have some sense of ceremony.
"Should we teleport back directly, Holy Lord?"
"Losia spoke up."
At this moment, she and Death were emanating power fluctuations at the level of high-level gods.
The will of this world shielded them from the detection of the will of the era.
The power of the highest-ranking gods is no less than that of the main gods. Even under the suppression rules of the power of the various realms, they can easily break through space to teleport over long distances.
"No, we'll choose the route that passes through the most powerful forces."
Jiang Yan shook his head.
Although he now has a huge sum of nearly 50 million soul crystals, who would complain about having too much money?
Compared to the impoverished lords, these long-established powers are incredibly wealthy.
He intends to make these forces "grateful".
"As you wish."
Both sides responded respectfully.
Jiang Yan nodded slightly, glanced at the somewhat dejected Yaberic, and comforted him, "I have already collected the remains of those Holy Light Dragons. When we get back, we can use the baptismal function of the Gates of Heaven to revive some of them."
"Thank you, Master."
Upon hearing this, Jacobi expressed his gratitude.
"No need to be so polite, let's go."
Jiang Yan smiled gently and flew forward, riding the dragon into the sky.
Six thousand angels and three thousand undead bone dragons followed clearly behind.
Holy light and the aura of death intertwined, creating a magnificent spectacle.
This time, he deliberately did not put these troops away.
With its current strength, Holy Spirit City is invincible in the beginner's continent. There's no need to hide anything; it might even intimidate a few duchy-level powers to surrender willingly.
Thus began the long expedition of the vast army.
Under the intimidation of more than three thousand divine-level bone dragons, no force dared to make the slightest attempt to obstruct them.
Upon arriving at each faction, Jiang Yan would split his forces into two groups. He would activate his skills and wait for the gods of each country to come and "express their gratitude."
The angels then traveled to various cities, performing miracles and proclaiming the great Holy Lord of Light and the legendary holy land, the City of the Holy Spirit.
Various prompts scroll across the resource panel.
The gods of the Iron Mountain Kingdom offer you 100,000 Soul Crystals and 100 ordinary enchanted weapons...
The people of Tieshan have deepened their faith in you, gaining 1000 Faith Power...
[The Hundred Mile Mountain Range has offered you 170,000 Soul Crystals and 300 Ornamental Pets...]
[...]
And so, two months later.
When the group returned to the territory of the Fire Empire, the total reserves of Soul Crystals had exceeded 200 million, and the various bone dragons were also filled with all sorts of strange and wonderful supplies.
"This is the last one left."
Jiang Yan sensed this vast land with his divine sense.
Imperial-level powers are rare in the entire beginner continent; the only known ones are Dragon Cliff, the Necromancer Empire, and the Flame Empire before us.
The unification of North Erland is now largely complete, and the Fire Empire, which borders Holy Spirit City, is undoubtedly the main target of the next plan. We can't just raid it and leave.
"Let's go down and meet them."
At Jiang Yan's command, the army flew towards the capital of the Fire Flame Kingdom.
Meanwhile, inside Fire City.
A large group of gods gathered together with solemn expressions.
"Lord Fire God, based on the comparison of information from multiple sources, it can be confirmed that the master of that suddenly appearing massive divine legion is the same person as the Holy Lord of Light whom Northland worships."
"According to the information, the Holy Light Church to which he belongs is an extremely exclusive church that cannot tolerate any other gods. I think the Gale God, who was expelled from the Duchy of Hilank, knows this all too well."
“That’s right, Lord Fire God.”
The God of Gale, whose name was called, stood up, his face full of grief and indignation, and said, "No one knows this infamous church better than me. They disrupt the faith market under the guise of free miracles. The God of Starfire was beaten to death on the spot just for saying a few words of warning when he couldn't stand it."
"He even openly proclaimed himself the master of the gods in his publications, and that all the gods should submit to him."
"What's even more infuriating is that, for some reason, all the people seem to have been brainwashed. Even though they were the ones colluding with the undead, everyone thinks that our Seven Temples abandoned the people. The Church of Light has instead become the hero who subdued the undead and saved the world."
These words immediately aroused righteous indignation among everyone.
"How could there be such a shameless person!"
“That’s right. To seize all faiths would be to cut off our path to divinity. How is that any different from taking a life?”
"Let's fight them!"
I second that!
"Please be patient, everyone."
The deity who had previously possessed the intelligence spoke again: "According to the latest data, this deity's legion contains over 3,000 lower-level bone dragons, 10 upper-level undead deities, 2 unknown lower-level holy deities, and 1 unknown lower-level undead deity."
"Furthermore, based on their route, they are expected to reach the territory of the Fire Flame Empire today."
The murmurs in the courtyard abruptly ceased.
All the gods looked at each other in bewilderment.
Although the undead class's god-level combat power is at the bottom of its tier, there are just too many of them, not to mention there are 10 high-level undead gods...
The Swift Wind God, who had just been so passionate, quietly slipped back into the crowd and moved to the spot closest to the gate.
After a long while, everyone looked at the emperor, the sole supreme god of the empire, who sat in the main seat.
"Lord Fire God, what should we do?!"
"Don't panic, everyone."
"My flames have traversed thousands of years, and countless gods more powerful than me have fallen, yet I still endure. Naturally, I possess some special abilities."
The God of Fire, however, remained calm and composed.
"I will personally speak with them later. Other issues can be left alone, but if they insist on monopolizing the faith..."
“I will make him feel the wrath of an ancient, high god.”
