Global Lord: Start with Divine Favor

Chapter 960 213: Opening the Origin Treasure Chest (2)

[Current Decree: Reversal of Mountains and Rivers: Empress's Order, Reversal of Mountains and Rivers follows; Empress's Desire, heavens and earth overturn and proceed. All subjects are restored to their peak state before death]

[Current Edict: Princess's Blessing: Territories receiving Holy Spirit Level blessings, all subjects can attain a mild Holy Spirit Level blessing effect, twisting lines of causality briefly upon activation. All soldiers' Life Value +10%, Spiritual Energy Value +10%. When receiving a priest's blessing, trigger the Princess's Blessing effect, gaining Sub-Invincible Shield, lasting 1 second.]

[Current Proclamation: Phoenix Cry Oracle: Like a phoenix spreading its wings, Celestial Sound echoes everywhere. Territories are blessed with effects akin to Holy Spirit Level, all newborn inhabitants have Talent +1, Tiers +1 upon adulthood, with a chance to acquire [Phoenix Cry Divine Pattern], and when Talent is enhanced, an additional Trait is drawn.]

[Current Mandate: Celestial Maiden's Words: Celestial Maiden's Words, resplendent as the starry river, granting vitality to all things. [Blessing of the Starry River], bathes all creatures within the territory in the light of the starry river, ignoring Tier Attribute limits during attribute enhancement. [Vitality of All Things], when soldiers are attacked, a forced six-layer judgment of evasion, block, hit, physique, will, and soul is conducted, only when all enemy judgments pass will damage take effect. Upon entering battle, at full state, each second of Life Recovery is converted to Life Limit, and each second of Spiritual Energy Recovery is converted to Spiritual Strength.]

[Current Book of Creation: 1/1 (Sealed)]

Wutong has one last trait, which is [God-calling General·Holy Spirit Level Trait: Nine heavens of divine spirits obey the summons, the gods and demons of the heavens are called upon, summoning divine generals from myriad realms to aid in defeating the enemy. Current available divine generals 0/32, divine generals' existence time 800 seconds.]

These are all the traits of Wutong.

Compared to Lin Rui's substantial template, it is undoubtedly very, very, extremely thin.

Just a few hundred words in total.

But the strength is unimaginable. It can be said to be wholly, extremely, unreasonably powerful!

No wonder when Lin Rui saw her across two worlds back then, he was so terrified that his scalp prickled, feeling like she could twist his head off at any moment!

Take her Glowing Moonlight Trait, for instance, below Holy Spirit Level there's absolutely no ability to resist.

Not to mention Lin Rui, even the strongest Blood-colored Demon Shadow he has ever seen, a Tier Fifteen existence, breaking the World Wall limit, has no ability to retaliate against Wutong.

This Glowing Moonlight can forcibly drag opponents into a dream, sealing all their traits, abilities, and even strength.

In the dream, if Wutong sets your tier to Tier Zero Level 1, your combat strength becomes like a man with no strength to truss a chicken.

No matter how strong you are in reality, even if you could dismantle the world with your bare hands or destroy everything with one sword, in the dream, you have to face various spirits and demons in your weakest form!

Precisely, various spirits and demons, for the Empress is a Summoner.

She won't make a move herself; she can summon a multitude of mysterious divine generals with just a God-calling General.

For instance, Lin Rui, who is Tier Eight, or Celestial Divine Priest, a Tier Nine divine general, she can summon 32 of them.

These beings can be radiantly divine, or terrifyingly ghastly.

Anyway, Lin Rui cannot think of any way that, in his pre-transmigration body of a homebody, he could possibly resist such a ghostly presence as the Celestial Divine Priest.

It seems like entering a nightmare, it would tear him into pieces instantly.

No, more accurately, the difference in willpower is already too vast!

A few hundred points' difference in willpower, upon seeing it, would be enough to scare him to death, falling into a stupor, and dying instantly.

Just like in the legends, mortals with weak spirits cannot see Ghost Messengers roaming.

One could say, back then, that spring dream of the Dark Elf directly collided with Wutong's strongest realm.

If Wutong hadn't been unwilling to pay the price, Lin Rui and the strongest Dark Elf at that time would've been completely obliterated.

However, though Wutong is mighty, Lin Rui remains unsatisfied.

Because Wutong's Attribute Panel is too thin, against common beings, she could obliterate effortlessly.

But against other Holy Spirit Levels?

Lin Rui still doesn't know why Wutong was sealed in the first place.

Wutong doesn't want to elaborate either.

Lin Rui can only make earlier preparations.

Seeing Lin Rui take out four Origin Treasure Chests, Wutong showed a faint smile: "Glory Crystal? Don't get your hopes up too high."

No expectation, but perhaps expecting you would be alright?

Lin Rui smiled, sitting beside her, putting his arm around her shoulders, letting her lean into his embrace, and said leisurely: "Think of it as a raffle, try opening it."

Wutong did not resist either, picking up an Origin Treasure Chest from the grass, and slowly opened it.

[Ding, you have opened an Origin Treasure Chest, the gaze of the Goddess of Fortune once flickered over it, and you have received the goddess's favor!]

[Ding, obtained Semi-Divine Artifact: Netherworld Balancer *1]

Semi-Divine Artifact: Netherworld Balancer!

Lin Rui took a deep breath, good heavens! Good heavens!

As expected from an Origin Treasure Chest!

Just opening it casually yields a Semi-Divine Artifact.

Its value could be worth several billion Spirit Crystal Coins!

Lin Rui has a deep impression of this item.

This is the very artifact held by Emperor Setra, possessing the ability to dynamically adjust strength.

Back then, since Lin Rui and Violet were fighting Setra, and their forces outnumbered Setra's, violating the honor duel's fairness rule, Setra's strength was enhanced, Life Value +100%, Spiritual Energy Value +100%, Physical Attack +100%, Spiritual Strength +100%, Divine Damage +50%.

And that's just the two of them!

Lin Rui glanced at the attributes afterwards, in an unfair duel.

It can enhance the owner's Life Value by up to +1000%, Spiritual Energy Value +1000%, Physical Attack +700%, Spiritual Strength +700%, Divine Damage +350%, True Damage +100%, all Attributes +150%.

In that state, not even a Tier Fifteen Blood-colored Demon Shadow could defeat Setra.

Fortunately, Lin Rui didn't bring too many people in at that time, otherwise, despite the Blood-colored Demon Shadow naturally countering Setra, Setra's powerful True Damage would've been enough to instantly obliterate the Blood-colored Demon Shadow.

Lin Rui handed the artifact directly to Wutong and said, "Just suitable for you, now no one can bully you by numbers."

Wutong gently shook her head and said blandly, "Semi-Divine Artifacts do not work in battles of the Holy Spirit Level. You better reward your soldiers with it."

"Is that so?" Lin Rui didn't insist, and said, "Alright then, I'll sell it when I have time."

This item isn't of much use in the Golden Pansy Domain either.

Combat in the Golden Pansy Domain has always been won through armies.

Rarely does anyone fight a formidable enemy alone, in other words, equipping this on Lin Rui would actually be a negative buff, making the enemy stronger.

If Lin Rui cannot defeat a rival, it surely indicates that they are extraordinarily strong, requiring joint efforts to conquer. This item would not be useful.

In scenarios where it can be used, Lin Rui barely needs it, as he already dominates numerically. Its function is limited.

Selling it for Spirit Crystal Coins would be a waste; Lin Rui pondered if he could sell it to the Empire's Emperor in exchange for resources or other Semi-Divine Artifacts.

He doesn't believe other forces do not need such a Semi-Divine Artifact?

Lin Rui even considers giving it to the Empress for defense against assassins.

Don't other monarchs consider this issue?

Perhaps selling to a force in urgent need could make it even valuable than a Divine Artifact for them.

Notably, Setra, a monarch himself, held two key treasures, one a Mythical Level staff, and the other this Semi-Divine Artifact.

This shows that for a monarch, they'd rather forgo other divine artifacts to hold onto this Semi-Divine Artifact.

However, such transactions require opportunity; Lin Rui isn't hasty, he leisurely stores the Semi-Divine Artifact into his personal space.

Before it's sold, it remains as an accumulation of wealth and foundation for the territory for now.
