Chapter 1000: A Protégé
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lu Li took a moment to check. He was not entirely nervous because the invincible might from the God was much weaker than that of the God of Wings, and even much so compared to the Emperor of Heaven Reverse.
Since the invincible might was weaker than the God of Wings, then the God would not be strong. Even an avatar would not pose any threat to Lu Li. It’s not like he had not fought against an immortal before.
As such...
Lu Li continued to smash the Wicked Bead down to kill the several Earth Immortal Realm warriors.
“What?”
A low and deep voice came out of the statue. That voice was hoary and coarse. After a pause, the voice continued, “A Relic in a mortal world? As a matter of fact... it is quite a nice one.”
It was rare that a Relic could appear in a mortal world because an immortals’ return to the mortal world was difficult, which was known to both Lu Li and Master of Voodoo Race.
After Lu Li finished the Earth Immortal Realm warriors, he stopped the Wicked Bead in the air. “What? You want my Relic?” Lu Li asked, casually.
“Eh?”
The God sounded surprised. “Who are you? Are you from the Divinity?”
The God believed that a Relic could never show up in a mortal world unless someone had come from the Divinity. But why would such a warrior from the Divinity fight those low-level beings? Even if there was a rational, the immortal would not have to hide some abilities.
“I am Lu Li!”
He answered calmly, “I am but a human being from the mortal world, not an immortal from the Divinity. Of course... the day will come when I go to the Divinity. There is some feud between the human race and the Voodoo Race. So, my lord from the Divinity, are you going to help the Voodoo Race?”
The God did not reply. Instead, he asked another question, “Where did you get this Relic?”
Lu Li did not wish to waste more time. Would the God fight or not? He was so chatty and he had so many questions. Lu Li languidly answered, “Don’t you mind where I get it, my dear Lord God of Sorcerer. I don’t think you should meddle in businesses of the mortal world. It is not okay for adults to get involved in a children’s fight.”
“Hmm!”
The God of Sorcerer laughed. “You are an interesting human being. The Voodoo Race here worships me. Of course, I will protect them. If they were all gone, where could I obtain the energy of faith? That being said... if you are willing to give me the Relic, I can let go of the Voodoo Race here. You can kill them as you like. How about that?”
“What...?!”
The Master of Voodoo Race and the warriors were stupefied. The God of Sorcerer had sold them out just like this? They felt they had just taken a beating. The god that they worshiped for so many years was forsaking them so easily. How could they accept this?
“Energy of faith?”
Many things appeared in Lu Li’s mind. Some things that he could not quite understand became a bit clearer to him now.
There was no one of the Voodoo Race, Asmodians, and Feather Race that had ascended to the Divinity and yet, they all had gods of worship and Originator Artifacts. At the critical times, they could ask for an epiphany.
Lu Li had been wondering where the gods they worshiped came from.
At the moment, he could finally see. Those gods were not randomly chosen. It was... the gods that came to the races in person.
To seek energy of faith!
Some gods used special skills and found some worshipers in the mortal world to obtain the energy of faith. They sent down some signs of manifestation and would incur an epiphany every now and then, showing some divine skills. In this way, people of this race would all worship this god, day and night and that would give the god... the so-called energy of faith?
Warriors of the mortal world were weaker. Anything an immortal could do would scare a bunch of people. Besides, immortals were from the Divinity, a being that was second to none.
Therefore...
The mortals had the sense that the immortals could do anything and that immortals could protect them. Able to help them eliminate all disasters as long as they worshiped the immortals.
But for Lu Li, immortals were just warriors with stronger abilities. If immortals were capable of anything, why wouldn’t Emperor of Heaven Reverse return? Why would Emperor Heng and the Slayer die? The Slayer in particular. He was so mighty. Nonetheless, he lost his life.
In addition, Lu Li had destroyed an avatar of the God of Wings. As a result, Lu Li was never a believer that immortals were omnipotent. At the Heaven Reverse Universe, an avatar of an immortal should be just like a warrior at the peak of the Semi-God Realm.
“Semi-God Realm? Wait!”
Lu Li remembered someone, the Crippled Zen Master!
Lu Li had always assumed that the Crippled Zen Master was at the peak of the Semi-God Realm and the most powerful at the Central Imperial Universe. Now, Lu Li wondered, if the Crippled Zen Master was an immortal?
Because once, he generated a hand shadow and grabbed the Wicked Bead. Back then, Lu Li was confused. Now, he could see the truth!
An avatar of the God of Wings used a hand to grab the Wicked Bead but it could tremble. If Crippled Zen Master was only a warrior at the peak of the Semi-God Realm, would he be able to grab the Wicked Bead in his hand and stop the Wicked Bead completely?
In comparison, the Crippled Zen Master was much stronger than the God of Wings. Would a warrior at the peak of the Semi-God Realm better than an immortal? Lu Li doubted it...
“I wonder how Yin Qingsi is doing?”
Lu Li thought of the Blind. Then, he shook the messy thoughts out from his mind. This was not the time to think about them. He must deal with the God first.
He focused his mind and said, “I am sorry, God of Sorcerer! I am not giving you the Wicked Bead and I will have to destroy the Voodoo Race. If you want to fight, then please do!”
“Brave. Then let us play. I will show you the difference between an immortal and a mortal!”
A deep voice came from the statue of the God of Sorcerer. Then, the statue lit up again. A column of light came into being, dashing into the sky. It was as if the column of light had breached the barrier in the Heaven Reverse Universe and was connected to the Divinity.
“God of Sorcerer, I am sorry but it’s my turn to take actions now!”
Lu Li would be wiser than to wait for the God of Sorcerer to finish the delivery of divine energy. Lu Li knew that this statue was the media connecting this world and the God of Sorcerer. As long as the statue was ruined, there was nothing the God of Sorcerer could do, no matter how capable he was.
“Whoosh~”
Lu Li flew the Wicked Bead over toward the statue. If he could smash the Wicked Bead into the statue, it would be crushed immediately.
“Hmm!”
From the statue came a sneer and then some dark light—which formed a fist that was coming at the Wicked Bead forcefully.
“Bang!”
With a muffled sound, the Wicked Bead was smashed away. Even though it was only about a mile, it did prove that the God of Sorcerer was quite strong.
“Punk!”
Calmly, the God of Sorcerer said, “This bead is a nice Relic and of top grade even in the Divinity. But only immortals can use Relic. You will not be able to tap into the full potential of the Relic. You can reconsider my offer. Besides... I can accept you as my protégé and relay to you all my learnings. If you are talented, ascending to the Divinity will not be difficult.”
