After Defeat, the Empress’s Negotiating Chip Turns Out to Be Me

Chapter 317

317~ Growth~

She, a good-for-nothing princess who had never even touched magic, couldn't possibly master it all at once.

"Princess, what is this?"

"This is power sufficient to change the future."

The Little Princess smiled.

"As long as I master this power, perhaps I can change the future."

After all, her behavior on the timeline had already changed, hadn't it? She had successfully stepped one foot out from predetermined fate! As long as she continued working hard, perhaps she could directly and completely avoid the future's bad end!

"Is that so? Then does Princess have a way to master this power?"

In the dream realm, she had also seen the Little Princess use Divine Power, but it was all very crudely infused, or applied to the Empress, making the Empress's magic carry divinity.

But even though she hadn't touched either type of power, she could tell that the Little Princess's Divine Power dissipated very obviously when applying it to the Empress's magic. Much Divine Power wasn't utilized and directly dissipated.

Divine Power wasn't like magic power. It seemed to exist in the air for a moment then dissipate, losing its divinity and becoming very viscous magic power, then being diluted until finally becoming free-floating magic power.

"I do!"

The Little Princess placed the notebook on her lap, pulled Maid "Xiao Xi" to her side, casually opened a page, and placed it before Maid "Xiao Xi."

"Look here. These are all precious experiences summarized by me from other timelines. They can help me avoid many detours!"

She really needed this thing too much. It was simply divine power that could reverse the situation at critical moments!

However, besides this, she still had to resolve another problem: the issue of being eroded by Divine Power in reality...

Mortal flesh couldn't bear Divine Power. Even if she shared the same origin as Xuan, it wouldn't work. Humans wanting to master a deity's power was fundamentally wishful thinking.

Even someone as formidably powerful as Elysia, a proxy, had a nine-deaths-one-life chance to master a portion of Divine Power. Yet she had directly received it from Xuan without any adverse reactions and became Xuan's proxy. She was already very lucky.

She now also began to consider whether Elysia was like her, suffering corresponding backlash every time she used Divine Power.

It's just that Elysia's backlash was invisible, acting within the body, or when it reached a certain degree, it would all backlash out at once.

Unlike her, where it manifested externally, growing a cat tail and cat ears.

"Princess, if you're tired, rest for a bit."

"It's fine. I won't get tired here."

Her ability to appear here meant that in the real world she had fallen asleep, which meant she was in a resting state. Even if she stayed inside thinking about a huge pile of things, her stamina consumption rate couldn't keep up with her recovery rate. It could be directly ignored. Therefore, in this church, she fundamentally didn't need to rest.

"Then how about Princess tries to empty your mind while reading this notebook?"

Maid "Xiao Xi" proposed.

"Empty my mind?"

"Right. Empty your mind. Perhaps there will be unexpected gains? Emptying your mind can also help you better enter the state."

The Little Princess nodded. This was indeed true. It's just that all along, she hadn't really tried this book-reading method, because after concentrating for less than half an hour, her spirit would become fatigued.

But she could try it inside here! Inside here, her stamina was almost equivalent to infinite! Inexhaustible stamina!

Plus, one hour inside the church could be one minute in the real world. Perhaps she really could master it quickly!?

Immediately after, she began trying to empty her mind as Maid "Xiao Xi" said, letting herself quickly enter the state, beginning to consider how each link in the steps above should be done more coherently.

To control Divine Power well, the first requirement was to make the control of Divine Power coherent, able to reduce instability and collapse problems caused by control errors.

Divine Power was mostly like this. It required more precise control ability than magic power. Otherwise, it would easily collapse when condensing and preparing to do something. The reason she couldn't condense Divine Power into shapes as described in the notebook earlier was precisely this.

However, there was an even more important matter: eliminate Divine Power's influence on herself!

After flipping randomly a few times, as expected, it was also recorded in the notebook! The method to eliminate Divine Power's backlash on oneself as much as possible! That was... change bodies!?

The Little Princess's facial expression couldn't hold it together a bit.

What kind of operation was changing bodies?

Continuing to read down, she gradually understood. The so-called body changing meant turning her weak body into Xuan's spare body? Xuan's spare body, because it was originally created from Divine Power, could perfectly bear Divine Power.

And after Xuan's spare body was manufactured, it was in a living state. The body's various organs and functions were all normal. It just lacked a soul.

The reason for lacking a soul was also to facilitate soul transfer after the main body was damaged in battle or played broken.

This gave her an opportunity, an opportunity to transfer her soul to the spare body!

"It can be played like this!?"

The Little Princess's mouth was so wide open a fist could fit inside.

Above were all paths she had never tried, never even conceived of. Body swapping behavior was actually described so easily? She just needed to learn to use Divine Power to extract her soul and place it into Xuan's spare body... Doing this could completely eliminate Divine Power's backlash on herself!

Then she could use Divine Power at will. It's just that the quantity could still only use the amount Xuan gave her.

Seeing this, she couldn't help but look toward Xuan, still sleeping in the crystal coffin.

When she was doing all this, wouldn't she wake up this loli Xuan?

Although she also looked dumb, after all, she was still a deity!

Closing the notebook, the Little Princess began attempting, attempting to master Divine Power.

After guiding Divine Power out from within her body, she continued attempting to control Divine Power to condense together, giving Divine Power the ability to be shaped.

"Princess..."

Maid "Xiao Xi" watched the Little Princess from the side, feeling an indescribable excitement in her heart.

She could sense that at this moment, the Little Princess's long-dead heart had ignited once again!

Her Princess had a reason to work hard, a goal and direction to strive toward!

If in the past in Glaze Nation she worked hard so she could live more comfortably, in the Scarlet Phoenix Nation she worked hard to protect Glaze Nation and her own safety, now she was working hard to change that predetermined future.

Unknowingly, Her Princess had already grown to a degree where she no longer needed her companionship by her side!
