Chapter 539 - 524: Purpose
The Fertile Divine Deer’s eyes suddenly tightened. Without releasing any aura, its presence covered the heavens and the earth, making both bow in submission.
Sky, earth, plants, space... all submitted to the Fertile Divine Deer.
Li Cunxu could feel that even the tiny dust particles, invisible to the eye, were conveying thoughts of submission to the Fertile Divine Deer.
It stood there quietly, its silhouette becoming more majestic in Li Cunxu’s eyes, as if it were the supreme Divine King standing atop the firmament, worshiped by all gods.
At the same time, a faint, almost imperceptible sense of fervent faith was born deep within Li Cunxu’s heart, taking root firmly.
The old president glanced over but did not rush to extinguish it.
In reality, the Fertile Divine Deer did nothing; it merely stopped restraining its Divine King’s aura.
Feeling this aura that made all creatures in the cosmos bow in reverence, Li Cunxu had a sense that even if the Fertile Divine Deer did nothing, its mere aura could subdue a multitude of deities.
The Fertile Divine Deer spoke slowly, its words like the ultimate truth of the universe, resounding in Li Cunxu’s soul, leaving an eternal mark.
"In my next life, I shall be a Divine King. In my next life, I shall save the corrupted world. You shall be my Guardian, and I shall bestow upon you the supreme glory of the foremost deity under the Divine King."
Hearing this, Li Cunxu looked at the Desolate Egg, then at the Fertile Divine Deer, suddenly realizing why the Fertile Divine Deer was revealing the ’secrets of the world’ to him.
The Fertile Divine Deer intended to reincarnate into the strange Desolate Egg. It was telling the ’secrets of the world’ to encourage him to support its next life.
In fact, helping the Fertile Divine Deer wouldn’t be entirely unacceptable.
However, the Fertile Divine Deer made one mistake, dooming its actions to be wasted efforts.
It shouldn’t have, no matter what, forced Li Cunxu to sign a slave-like servitude contract.
Such contracts were common in the brutal, ancient times but are considered heinous in the eyes of today’s society.
Even human Beast Masters and their beasts do not enter into such harsh, unequal contracts.
Why don’t humans, as the stronger party in beast taming, sign unequal servitude contracts, opting instead for fair, equal Beast Taming Contracts?
Because the countless real lessons of historical experience have shown that seeking equality through equality is the only way to achieve a genuine bond and emotions between Beast Masters and their companion beasts.
Starting with an oppressive approach in dealing with companion beasts cannot nurture true feelings.
Companion beasts are not mindless beasts; like humans, they have their own wisdom and thoughts.
A servitude contract is akin to a time bomb controlling another’s life. The Fertile Divine Deer’s actions are like forcibly planting an irrevocable time bomb in Li Cunxu’s belly, then telling him to support its next life, that it must save the world in its next life.
Moreover, this time bomb comes with brainwashing abilities, turning Li Cunxu into a loyal slave.
As for the Fertile Divine Deer’s promise to make Li Cunxu the ’foremost deity under the Divine King,’ it might be tempting to others, but it holds no appeal for Li Cunxu.
Without the Fertile Divine Deer, given Li Cunxu’s potential, he seems to have a chance at becoming a Divine King himself, so why would he care to be the foremost deity under another’s rule?
Li Cunxu doubtfully asked, "Among so many, why did you choose me?"
The Fertile Divine Deer replied, "You are one of the variables of the world, connected to the world’s fate, unnoticed by its will."
A variable of the world is a peculiar existence; it’s within the world, yet the world cannot perceive its existence, whereas others can easily notice it. It’s like a kind of countermeasure against the world, much like a tiny barnacle being unaffected by a massive whale in the animal kingdom.
Looking into Li Cunxu’s eyes with an unreadable expression, the Fertile Divine Deer actually discovered more than one such variable in the world.
The second world variable, the old president, had also been noticed, but the old president is too unfathomable. Every time the Fertile Divine Deer sees him, it feels an intense sense of danger.
This leaves the Fertile Divine Deer feeling incredulous and deeply apprehensive; it should be invincible in this era when no deities emerge, especially since it attained the supreme future sixth Divine King status with the help of the Bronze Divine King and the Titan Divine King, and holds the powers of the Desolate Evil God.
Yet it still feels a sense of foreboding from the old president.
The Fertile Divine Deer’s figure gradually faded; it couldn’t linger in the world too long, lest it be discovered by the world’s will, and it was eager to reincarnate.
Seeing this, Li Cunxu remembered his main mission and hurriedly asked:
"How can the talent ’Land of Fertility’ be evolved into ’Fertile Divine Kingdom’?"
The Fertile Divine Deer originally planned to help Li Cunxu’s ’Land of Fertility’ evolve into a ’Fertile Divine Kingdom.’
For the Fertile Divine Deer, evolving the Land of Fertility into a Fertile Divine Kingdom was a simple matter, achievable with a single thought.
Just a ’permission’ thought from the Fertile Divine Deer could instantly advance Li Cunxu’s talent.
However, the Fertile Divine Deer changed its mind, extinguishing this thought, and accelerated its reincarnation, creating the illusion of not having enough time to inform Li Cunxu.
The reason for not telling Li Cunxu was to hold something back against him, as a precaution, to prevent Li Cunxu from coveting its Authority of Fertility.
Although it forcibly made Li Cunxu sign a servitude contract, it still felt a vague unease about this variable of the world.
In the endless years, the Fertile Divine Deer had witnessed many world variables, among which, two of the strongest variables left an indelible impression on it to this day.
They were the Bronze Divine King and the Titan Divine King.
Why is it that not evolving into a Fertile Divine Kingdom serves as a precaution against Li Cunxu?
Beyond the golden legendary Fertile Divine Kingdom, there exists a superior talent, also named ’Fertile Divine Kingdom,’ but it’s a unique grade without color.
The owner of Fertile Divine Kingdom (Unique) is precisely the Fertile Divine Deer.
Fertile Divine Kingdom (Unique) can partition part of its own divine kingdom to directly elevate someone else’s Land of Fertility to a Fertile Divine Kingdom.
Of course, the Fertile Divine Kingdom (Unique) isn’t philanthropy; in the Fertile Divine Kingdom it parts with, it holds absolute control and can reclaim it to strengthen itself.
It’s akin to renting out rooms, with the Fertile Divine Deer as the landlord, albeit a more domineering one, able to reclaim rented spaces forcibly.
When the Fertile Divine Deer completely dies and is reincarnated, the Fertile Divine Kingdom (Unique) talent ceases to exist. Thus, its unique position is vacated, and other golden Fertile Divine Kingdoms have the potential to ascend to become Fertile Divine Kingdom (Unique).
The Fertile Divine Kingdom (Unique) talent harbors seven-tenths of the Authority of Fertility, and whoever possesses this talent in the future can inherit this seven-tenths of the Authority of Fertility.
