The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

Chapter 990 - 305: Ascension!

Perhaps in inheriting Linte Isaac's research, Youyou also inherited some of His memories about this research, and there was a hint of melancholy in Youyou's voice.

Luo Yan was silent for a while, then slowly spoke.

"Alright, let's set aside the source of his knowledge... please continue."

Youyou continued to speak.

"To quantify the relationship between Extraordinary Power and Power of Faith, He referred to the sum total of Extraordinary Power on the entire planet as the 'Seed of Creation'!"

"Simply put—it's the creator's code written for Himself, a console for creating the world, or a backdoor left for Himself!"

"In His conclusions, there is only one Seed of Creation! As to whether there is one per planet or per galaxy, and which planets have them and which do not, whether your shared hometown Earth has one, He doesn't know... But what can be confirmed is that on a sufficiently long time scale, the Seed of Creation that the creatures on this planet can touch remains constant!"

"As for the weight and number of souls, they only influence the share each occupies of the 'Seed of Creation' and cannot turn one seed into two!"

Luo Yan slightly frowned, pondered for a moment, and said.

"So, no matter if this planet has 100 million humans or 100 billion goblins, the total Extraordinary Power remains unchanged?"

Youyou: "That's correct!"

Luo Yan continued to inquire.

"So if this planet only has one person left, would they directly become a god?"

Youyou hesitated for a moment, nodded thoughtfully, and cautiously said.

"This is the most extreme scenario, theoretically it should be as you say... But Lord Demon King, Youyou wouldn't recommend you try it, not to mention this process might attract Chaos, your followers might even begin to doubt themselves."

"I'm not so without principles." Luo Yan glanced at Youyou with a sideways look, feeling that this guy actually still has some misconceptions about him.

Everything he did was with the consensus of his followers, almost never pushing a proposal that everyone opposed without discussion.

Youyou continued to speak.

"Linte Isaac divided the 'Seed of Creation' into 10,000 shares. According to multi-sample tests and imprecise calculations, His preliminary conclusion was—10% of the Influence share is enough to create a 'Mythical Seed'! Which corresponds to a Demigod Level powerhouse!"

Upon hearing this data, Luo Yan couldn't help but wrinkle his brow.

"Wait, 10% of the Influence share can create a Demigod Level powerhouse? But just in Hell, there are already 8 of them!"

Surely the share in Hell doesn't account for 80%?!

Seemingly anticipating Luo Yan's question, Youyou continued speaking.

"This involves the variable 'overdraft quota' in the Divine Status Panel, although strictly speaking, a Demigod Level powerhouse requires 10% of the Influence share, Linte Isaac found in actual tests that the Influence share can actually be overdrawn!"

"However, overdrafting the use of Power of Faith comes with a cost, and the data of Dominance Efficiency is used to measure the interest applied on the entire faith system—or in other words, the debuff!"

"Based on this theory, whether it's Hell or Saint Sis, the use of Power of Faith is in an overdraft state! However, because their overdraft ratio isn't high, it's considered a benign overdraft. This also explains why different periods and levels of transcendent beings in historical records show different power levels... Have you also sensed it? It's not just due to attribute restraint that it's difficult for demons of the same level from Hell to defeat the Divine Chosen of the empire—it's largely because their overdraft ratios differ!"

Which means—

As long as there is no overdraft and dominance efficiency is maintained at 100%, the same level can dominate?

However, Luo Yan also understands that maintaining 100% dominance efficiency isn't very realistic.

After all, once he sets the promotion rules for the Lower Transcendent, even if the rules are set strictly, strictly tied to reincarnation, there would still definitely be many Transcendents climbing from Black Iron to Bronze, and then from Bronze to Silver...

With time, Lower Transcendents will increase, and even if he limits the number of Upper Transcendents, it cannot hold against the overwhelming numbers like "many ants kill an elephant".

After all, a million Black Iron Level Transcendents can occupy a place for a Diamond Level powerhouse, and aren't there millions of Black Iron Level adventurers in the empire?

There are even more Bronze ones!

And that is only the lowest level of Transcendents.

Silver and Fine Steel are the backbone forces of each kingdom!

Perhaps preventing some from entering reincarnation is a way that is not really a solution... even though this would undoubtedly be cruel to most of the abandoned wandering spirits.

As for those nobles who squander their Soul Level, being lazy and enjoying life.

From the standpoint of Saint Sis, it might not be such a bad thing.

He doesn't need his followers always to be so capable of fighting, as long as those guys can fight during difficult historical cycles it's sufficient.

After all, they've never thought of truly exterminating Hell and then moving their families to live underground.

Summarizing all of Youyou's explanations, Luo Yan pondered for a moment and said.

"I understand the basic situation now, for us... the immediate goal is to expand our Influence as much as possible to gain more Power of Faith shares."

"As for the four seeds in the Divine Status Panel, they correspond to the amount of top-tier combat power I can command, creating a Mythical Seed will take up 10% of the share, a Legendary Seed requires 1%, a Purple Crystal Seed 0.1%, a Diamond Seed 0.01%, Platinum requires a tenth of a Diamond Seed, further down can be ignored, just macro-control... is this what it means?"
