Chapter 436 Fallen From Power.
Not only did Loki step back warily, but he also looked around and checked their surroundings to make sure that they were in a Mental World, not a Cave Heaven. After all, even a fallen divine being should have a Cave Heaven.
When he was sure that he wasn't mistaken and no one was playing a prank on him, he turned to the seer and said, "How did you turn out like this?"
The pained look and signs of struggle appeared on the seer's face again. But the power of the Hypnotize Metac was too strong to resist, so he had to spill his guts.
He said, "I died only to come back and find out that I had been replaced. The new divine being occupying my divine position went hunting for me and tried to kill me so that I would never be able to threaten her."
"She was a seer, so I couldn't hide from her. I had to fake my death by giving up my Cave Heaven. If I hadn't done that, she wouldn't have stopped searching."
"In fact, it can be said that I am already dead because I am no longer the person I was. I had to transfer my mind into this new body through my Life Ability. Then I came here to join the Four Directions Sect."
Loki nodded in understanding as he listened. After the seer was done talking, he asked, saying, "So, how do you plan to return to your lofty position?"
The seer said, "I can't take back my Divine Position in my current state. My plan is to look for an alternative. So I spread my Knowledge Network throughout the Central Domain by installing an information broker shop in every city."
"If I can use my Knowledge Network to parasitize someone and help that person become a divine being, I can transfer my mind into their mind using my Life Ability and take their place. Then I can use their power to take back my original divine position."
Loki was so impressed by this plan that he clapped. As he clapped, he said, "Good plan. Very good plan."
Then he asked, saying, "Why haven't you succeeded, though?"
The seer's eye twitched a little bit before he said, "Because becoming a divine being is very difficult. Every Divine Position is already taken and guarded jealously."
"In fact, there might be more than one person claiming ownership of a Divine Position and in possession of the secret recipe to refine the Divine Metac for that Divine Position. So as soon as a divine being dies, there will be plenty of people scrambling to replace them."
"This makes replacing a divine being nearly impossible. The alternative is to create a new Divine Position, and I am already working on that."
When Loki heard this, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Oh. Are you already working on it? How far have you gone?"
This time, the resistance was greater. He struggled not to spill his greatest secret, but he was still compelled to talk. He said, "I am currently in a small world outside of The Blessed Heaven World. I transferred my mind into the body of a native in the small world. Then I will use this native to become the World King of the small world."
"If I succeed, I won't have to fight the World King or the will of the world for control of the world. And if I fail, I can always transfer my mind into another body and start again. It is just that failure means I will have to wait a while for the previous World King to die."
Loki began to clap again. As he clapped, he said, "I am truly impressed. I thought that I had you estimated, but it turned out that I had underestimated your capabilities."
Now he was seeing just how insidious the Knowledge Network Life Ability was. Not only can the Life Ability be used to harvest knowledge from the minds of others by parasitizing them, but even the mind of the host can be transferred into a parasitized mind.
This way, if the host is killed, they can just shift their minds to another body and continue their work. In a way, a cultivator with the Knowledge Network Life Ability is immortal.
Of course, not everyone believes that. Many people believe that the new body is only someone with the memories and Life Ability of the previous host, not the exact same person.
But what Loki found absurd is that even with this ability, someone was able to steal the Divine Position from this seer and turn him into someone who can only fake his death and struggle to become a divine being.
However, he didn't dwell on this matter for long. And even though the seer suspected that Loki would covet his small world, Loki didn't give the small world a second thought.
His focus had returned to his own plans and preparations. So he said to the seer, "Since you know so much about divine beings, you should know how powerful a divine being is. Tell me exactly how they produce power."
The seer replied, saying, "In summary, the full power of a divine being is (Cultivation Rank) × (Stat) × (Divine Metac) × (Cave Heaven) × (Law Fragment)."
"The cultivation rank is also the Dao Status of the divine being. And as far as I know, it ranges from rank 6 to rank 8. I am not entirely sure about rank 9."
"Their Stat is the power of which part of their using. This could be Body, Soul, Mind, Will, or all of them. It all depends on which part of existence the Divine Metac can use. The lowest limit is 5.5 units. I am not sure what the highest is."
"The Divine Metac is the portion of the power output that is affected by the Divine Metac. There can be one, two, or three Divine Metacs working together. The power of each one ranges from 6 to 8."
