Chapter 784: Chapter 380: Divine Domain’s Crazy Upgrade! (Combined Chapter)_2

Chen Mo immediately began systematically upgrading the levels of his Divine Domains.

Upgrading a Divine Domain from Level Two to Level Three consumed 200 Divine Power. From Level Three to Level Four consumed 300 Divine Power. And from Level Four to Level Five consumed 400 Divine Power. This meant upgrading one Divine Domain from Level Two to Level Five cost 900 Divine Power. Consequently, upgrading his four Level Two Divine Domains to Level Five cost 3,600 Divine Power.

Upgrading his two Level Three Divine Domains to Level Five required another 1,400 Divine Power.

Additionally, upgrading his two Level Four Divine Domains to Level Five required 800 Divine Power.

In total, upgrading all eight of his Divine Domains to Level Five cost Chen Mo 5,800 Divine Power.

After the cost of contracting numerous Divine Domains earlier, Chen Mo still had 27,000 basic Divine Power remaining. Even after spending 5,800, he had a surplus of 21,200 basic Divine Power, which could be used for further upgrades.

However, beyond Level Five, the upgrade cost for Divine Domains doubled. This meant that upgrading a Level Five Divine Domain to Level Six, which would have followed the previous pattern and cost 500 Divine Power, now required 1,000 Divine Power. Similarly, upgrading to Level Seven would cost 1,200 Divine Power, and to Level Eight, 1,400 Divine Power.

An expense of over a thousand Divine Power was still a small sum compared to his more than twenty thousand basic Divine Power. However, multiplying this cost by eight for all his Divine Domains quickly added up. Upgrading all eight Divine Domains to Level Six alone would consume another 8,000 Divine Power (8 x 1,000). Further upgrading them all to Level Seven would cost an additional 9,600 Divine Power (8 x 1,200).

Merely upgrading all eight Divine Domains to Level Seven would drain his remaining 21,200 Divine Power down to just 3,600. This remaining 3,600 Divine Power was enough to upgrade two of the Level Seven Divine Domains to Level Eight, consuming 2,800 Divine Power (2 x 1,400).

Thus, Chen Mo was left with only 800 basic Divine Power.

Even so, factoring in his various Divine Power bonuses, his regular Divine Power still numbered in the tens of thousands. He remained undoubtedly first on the Divine Power leaderboard; people from other Star Systems could only look up to him in awe, even after his seemingly reckless expenditure.

After upgrading all his Divine Domains, Chen Mo had 800 basic Divine Power left, along with six Level Seven Divine Domains and two Level Eight Divine Domains. These Divine Domains now produced a combined 464 divine might per day, with each contributing 58 divine might daily. This amounted to an astonishing gain of several hundred Divine Power daily.

And this was not yet the limit of Chen Mo’s capabilities.

After upgrading the Divine Domains, he began preparing to accept the inheritance. He also prepared for an experiment: to see whether he could simultaneously upgrade the Divine Domains while receiving the inheritance.

However, to avoid excessive waste, Chen Mo decided to first consult the remnant will of the Ancient God before him.

“You said earlier that if I were to receive the inheritance with my current god-tier, a lot of energy would overflow. Roughly how much would that be?”

“That’s hard to say,” the will replied. “It mainly depends on the strength of your god-tier and how much your body’s short-term absorption rate can handle. The energy transfer is a continuous influx. Imagine you are beneath a large sieve. When I instantly pour a massive amount of water onto this sieve, the more water that can pass through the sieve to you in that short period, the less water will overflow from the top of the sieve and be lost. Your Constitution is akin to the mesh size or the openings in this sieve. The more energy you can receive through it in a short time, the less energy will be lost. As for your question, if all the energy flowed perfectly into your body until your reserves were full, and then started overflowing, the initial loss from this first portion of energy would be around nine hundred thousand Divine Power.”

“That much?!”

Chen Mo was stunned. People from the third region of the World of Heavenly Element typically have a Divine Power Strength of around five hundred thousand at most. Yet this inheritance offers energy in the millions? That’s completely outrageous!

“Excuse me,” Chen Mo asked, “does this place still belong to the third region of the World of Heavenly Element?”

“World of Heavenly Element?” the will responded. “Of course not. This is the Grave of Gods; it’s no longer part of the World of Heavenly Element. The rules of that world are useless here. Haven’t you noticed that this world’s illusion beasts can inflict effective damage regardless of Divine Power disparities?”

Hearing this, Chen Mo had a moment of realization. Indeed, the illusion beasts here couldn’t be judged by the laws of the World of Heavenly Element. This place was clearly an anomaly. No wonder such a powerful inheritance exists here.

This feels too good to be true, Chen Mo thought. As the saying goes, there’s no such thing as a free lunch. This one isn’t just free; it’s a lavish feast. I wonder what complications will arise later.

Chen Mo decided not to dwell on it for now. His priority was to improve his strength.

He immediately looked at the will of the Ancient God before him and said, “Let’s start with the first inheritance.”

“Based on your current god-tier, accepting the first energy inheritance will cause energy to overflow and be wasted. Are you sure you want to continue?”

“Continue.”

“Very well. I will begin the energy transfer now!”

The twelve pairs of wings on the back of the Ancient God’s corpse blazed with an incredibly dazzling light. This light then converged into a single point, flowed into the Ancient God’s body, and then emerged from her fingertip.

As the will of the Ancient God lightly touched Chen Mo’s forehead with a fair finger, a surge of tremendous energy suddenly rushed into Chen Mo’s body. Even though Chen Mo was fully prepared to use the energy to upgrade his Divine Domains immediately, he instantly felt an overwhelming sense of being stuffed, like he’d drunk too much water too quickly. This demonstrated that even by channeling the energy as fast as possible into upgrading his Divine Domains, a significant amount was still unavoidably overflowing and being lost.

In the end, Chen Mo only managed to upgrade all his Divine Domains to Level Ten before the inheritance process concluded.

His basic Divine Power had now reached one hundred thousand. All eight of his Divine Domains were now Level Ten. Each could generate eighty divine might per day, totaling eight hundred divine might daily from all domains.

Once a Divine Domain reached Level Eleven, the divine might it generated daily would double. Unfortunately, the energy inheritance ended too quickly. Chen Mo didn’t have enough time to allocate the massive amount of energy required to upgrade his Divine Domains to Level Eleven. This was because the cost to upgrade a Divine Domain to Level Eleven had suddenly surged to five thousand basic Divine Power. Allocating five thousand basic Divine Power for a single upgrade took a moment.

What a shame, Chen Mo lamented silently. So much energy overflowed and was wasted. If all of it had been used to upgrade the Divine Domains, I might have been able to get them all to around Level Fifteen.

Chen Mo felt quite helpless.

As soon as his basic Divine Power reached 100,000, a notification from The Heavenly Path’s Hint arrived.

[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: Congratulations! Your Divine Power has met the requirements for a breakthrough. You can now attempt the Shattering and Reforging of your divine character to advance from a lower-tier divine character to a middle-tier divine character, thereby entering the fourth-tier God Realm!

Special Reminder: The Shattering and Reforging of the divine character carries immense risk. Failure will not only prevent you from reaching the middle-tier god status but may also lead to a decrease in your current strength. There is a high probability of losing half of your 100,000 basic Divine Power, a small chance of losing one-tenth, and an extremely slim chance of losing one percent.

Detailed information regarding the divine character Shattering and Reforging tasks has been sent to you. Please review the instructions carefully and gather all necessary materials to maximize your chances of success!]

Reading The Heavenly Path’s Hint, Chen Mo realized the gravity of advancing from the third-tier to the fourth-tier. It required a ’Shattering and Reforging of divine character,’ and failure could cause his basic Divine Power to plummet from 100,000 to as low as 1,000.

This is a huge trap! he thought, immediately checking the detailed instructions sent by The Heavenly Path.
