After Wuqishen was created by the Divine King, no True God had ever bestowed it. As for the even more difficult bestowal of a Sovereign of Laws… naturally, no one had ever reached that level.
Once one becomes a titled powerhouse, things are no longer ordinary.
Firstly, their status would be on par with the Four Generals.
Secondly, there are numerous benefits. For instance, ‘Wuqishen’ itself is an invaluable treasure.
However, it’s difficult!
The stringent criteria for the conferment have barred countless formidable talents from the Jin World. Nevertheless, in every epoch, numerous prodigies from the Eastern, Western, Southern, and Northern Armies still venture their fortunes, aspiring to attain the divine bestowment.
“Hmm?” Luo Feng read through the information in one breath, his brows slightly furrowed.
“Trying to obtain bestowal… Could it be…” Luo Feng looked at the golden figure before him and asked directly, “Is there such a task to obtain bestowal?”
The golden figure replied coldly, “Yes!”
“What task?” Luo Feng quickly asked. He wanted to give it a try himself. He was quite confident about his abilities, after all, he was an inheritor of the Dandonghe lineage.
“You are a Sovereign of Laws, soldier of the Manhe Army,” the golden figure said indifferently. “To obtain bestowal, there are two paths.”
Luo Feng listened attentively.
“The first path,” the golden figure continued, “has two conditions. As long as you meet these two conditions, the Four Generals will personally verify them. Once verified, you will be directly granted the bestowal.”
“The first path has two conditions,” it explained. “First, if you wish to become a True God, you must follow the divine power path and your life’s genetic level must reach ninety thousand times! When you achieve this, don’t rush to breakthrough into a True God; instead, come first for a joint inspection and verification by the Four Generals. Second, you must solve 10,081 formations of the Xihuang Bureau in one go. Only then will you meet the requirements.”
“Meeting both of these conditions will immediately grant you bestowal, along with numerous privileges. Your status will surpass even that of ordinary titled powerhouses, equaling that of the Four Generals!” The golden figure concluded in one breath.
Luo Feng listened with wide eyes.
Stunned.
Dazed!
“This is just too…” Luo Feng didn’t know what to say.
“Who set these conditions?” Luo Feng couldn’t help but ask.
“They were personally established by the great Divine King,” the golden figure replied.
Luo Feng could only suppress his dissatisfaction deep inside.
This was too insane.
The divine power path, a life genetic level of ninety thousand times. Even in ancient civilizations… even with many extraordinary encounters and aids, it would still be extremely difficult. Let alone in the Jin World… where all extraordinary encounters and treasures are controlled by the military, soldiers couldn’t access such incredible opportunities. Achieving a life genetic level of ninety thousand times under these circumstances…
Of course, he himself was already on this path, so this requirement was manageable.
Solving 10,081 formations of the Xihuang Bureau in one go?
Had the Divine King gone mad?
Although there was no time limit, merely being a Sovereign of Laws and asking one to solve all 10,081 formations of the Xihuang Bureau in one go was absolutely insane. Such a genius… none of the Dandonghe lineage’s inheritors had ever achieved this as Sovereigns of Laws. To put it this way, if such an extraordinary figure ever emerged, it wouldn’t be hard for them to become the ‘new Divine King’ in the future.
“Both conditions are utterly incredible,” Luo Feng thought to himself. “Meeting both would make Eternal True God status easily attainable, and future achievements would be boundless, standing atop the entire ancient civilization without difficulty.”
“Madman.”
“That Divine King must really think highly of the True God-level machine ‘Wuqishen’ he created to dare to set such conditions.” Luo Feng shook his head. The ancient civilization was divided into many factions, and Jin was merely one of them. Once such an extraordinary genius was discovered, which faction wouldn’t go crazy trying to claim them?
Luo Feng shook his head in admiration.
“Didn’t you say there were two paths?” Luo Feng looked at the golden figure. “What about the second path?”
“The great Divine King knows the first path is too difficult,” the golden figure said coldly. “Therefore, he established a second path. Any Sovereign of Laws can apply for a ‘Titled Task.’ When the task period begins… you will learn the content of the task and go to complete it. Once completed, you will be granted the bestowal.”
“A titled task?” Luo Feng pondered.
He understood the concept of a task period.
In every era, there was one military task. And within an entire era, there was only this one task!
Once you completed it, you had to wait until the next era to take on another task!
“What’s the mortality rate for the titled task?” Luo Feng asked curiously.
“Every era, soldiers apply for the titled task,” the golden figure replied coldly. “Soldiers from the Eastern, Western, Southern, and Northern Armies will participate in the titled task together. The mortality rate of the titled task is about ninety percent. The remaining ten percent barely survive. To date… no one has ever completed a titled task.”
Luo Feng was amazed.
Countless eras of titled tasks, zero completions! Ninety percent of participants perish, and the remaining ten percent survive but still fail.
“What’s the content?” Luo Feng couldn’t help but ask curiously.
“Soldier of the Manhe Army, you only need to apply for the task. After the next task period begins, you will find out,” the golden figure said. “Soldier, a reminder: since you’ve just joined the army… you should undergo more trials. It’s best to complete several cycle-level tasks first before taking on the titled task.”
Luo Feng nodded in understanding.
…
An expansive lake, peaceful and serene.
A strange beast hovered midair, its pair of wings on its neck occasionally flapping. It anxiously gazed into the distance, waiting eagerly.
“Why hasn’t he arrived yet?”
“He only went to a supply point, he should’ve returned by now.”
“Please, don’t exchange all the True God corpses for military merits. Galaxy, my life is in your hands. I have many treasures on me, I know you want me to offer treasures in exchange, I will, I will…” Wuhe hovered midair, muttering anxiously.
He was very worried.
Suddenly…
Wuhe’s eyes lit up. In the distance, a figure appeared, and with just one teleportation over the lake, the figure quickly arrived at this area.
“Galaxy, Galaxy.” Wuhe flapped his wings and zipped over, extremely enthusiastic.
Luo Feng glanced at him and smiled, “Don’t rush, let’s land first.”
“Alright, alright.” Wuhe obediently agreed.
Luo Feng dove down to the island below, and Wuhe quickly followed.
“This island layout is truly wonderful,” Wuhe looked around, admiring. “Everything seems so natural, seemingly simple at first glance, but upon closer inspection… it has a unique charm. I couldn’t create something like this. Only you, Galaxy, can casually arrange things so beautifully. Even my father’s arrangements aren’t as good as yours.”
“This was arranged by the previous soldier,” Luo Feng simply gestured, and a stone chair from in front of a distant house flew over, landing before him. Luo Feng sat down casually and said, “I’m lazy, I haven’t changed anything.”
Wuhe was slightly stunned, then quickly said, “Yes, yes, you’re absolutely right, Galaxy. We should focus on cultivation. External environment and such aren’t important. Strength is the most important.”
Luo Feng looked at Wuhe with a half-smile, half-serious expression: “Alright, stop flattering me. Obviously, you don’t know how to flatter properly.”
Wuhe looked extremely embarrassed.
He was the child of the master of the Northern True Sea, and since childhood, he never needed to flatter anyone. Naturally, his flattery skills were lacking.
“That portion, I’ve kept it for you,” Luo Feng looked at Wuhe. “You don’t need to worry about that.”
Wuhe exhaled in relief.
“But whether it reaches your hands depends on your attitude,” Luo Feng said directly. “Show me your good treasures.”
Wuhe was straightforward: “Galaxy, just look.”
Hua!
A suit of armor covered in green scales appeared out of nowhere on the empty ground: “This is a True God-level armor I originally brought. It’s slightly better than the standard armor of the Manhe Army.” He watched Luo Feng’s expression carefully.
Luo Feng’s eyelids drooped, seemingly unimpressed.
Wuhe wasn’t surprised at all. He knew that just a True God-level armor wouldn’t be enough to exchange for a ‘True God corpse.’
“This is the True God-level warship I brought when I left the Northern True Sea to join the army,” Wuhe brought out his real highlight.
Swoosh!
An ancient golden warship landed beside them. Luo Feng’s eyes glanced slightly toward the warship, then drooped again.
Seeing Luo Feng’s reaction, Wuhe became anxious and reminded him urgently: “This, this warship is a True God-level warship.”
Luo Feng still showed no interest.
In fact, Luo Feng was quite pleased inside: “As I expected, being the child of the master of the Northern True Sea, it’s normal for him to bring a palace-type supreme treasure for escape purposes. But I still need to press him a bit; maybe he has more good things. At the supply point, this warship is worth at least fifty thousand military merits! Looks like this deal is a profit.”
“I… I…” Wuhe, seeing Luo Feng’s indifferent reaction, became anxious.
“This is a large collection of weapons and armors from Sovereigns of Laws that I gathered in the Jiuyan Marsh. They’re all inside here.” Wuhe quickly threw out a bracelet that had been around his claw.
Luo Feng glanced at it, still uninterested.
Wuhe was really anxious now.
“Galaxy, isn’t that enough?” Wuhe looked at Luo Feng with a bitter expression.
Only then did Luo Feng truly look at him. This ugly, fierce beast… that face covered in scales still looked menacing, but his eyes showed pitiful pleading.
“Not enough,” Luo Feng said softly.
Wuhe looked at Luo Feng with a pitiful expression.
But Luo Feng didn’t care. He was certain… the Northern True Sea was such a vast force, and this Wuhe couldn’t have brought only these treasures when he left. Even if the master of the Northern True Sea was strict, could he really have only allowed him to bring so little? Then again, he could always send ‘Wuhe’ back to the Northern True Sea to gather more treasures.
After all, there was still a long time until the end of this era, and Wuhe could make many round trips to the Northern True Sea.
The Northern True Sea was rich and powerful. If he didn’t squeeze a bit from them, Luo Feng would feel he was letting himself down.
“Galaxy,” Wuhe gritted his teeth, staring at Luo Feng. “I did bring one treasure when I left, and I can give it to you, but… you have to give the warship back to me.”
Luo Feng’s eyes lit up.
Daring to say this meant that the treasure Wuhe possessed was worth even more than the warship.
“Show me,” Luo Feng’s eyelids no longer drooped. Instead, his eyes gleamed, staring intently at Wuhe without blinking.
