Chapter 1280 - 1028: Unity of the Divine Soul

Now, however, Little Zi was very calm because her communication with the Divine Soul was going very smoothly, and she hadn’t encountered any danger.

"So, I’m starting now!" Little Zi said.

Long Yi silently nodded his head. Almost instantly, Little Zi’s body shattered and transformed into a spherical Cosmic Stone!

This was because Little Zi’s soul and Divine Status had already entered the Divine Soul, and the body, having lost its soul, automatically reverted back to its original Cosmic Stone essence.

The Divine Soul, now infused with Divine Status and Divine Power, immediately exhibited streaks of gold within the red glow. At the same time, the previously erratic fluctuations of the red light stopped, and the glow began to divide, replicate, and move towards both ends...

Long Yi chuckled, "There’s actually cellular division."

Of course, this joke, akin to a cold pun, was lost on the Divine Envoy sister. She was too focused on everything unfolding before her eyes. The cells of the Divine Soul began to divide and multiply at an astonishing speed. Suddenly, Long Yi noticed that the nearby black Cosmic Stone sphere began to slowly evaporate from the surface, with the evaporated mist being absorbed by the Divine Soul’s cells, which further accelerated their proliferation rate.

However, given this rate, this small amount of Cosmic Stone would hardly be enough.

Boom!

Long Yi directly lifted out that large chunk of Cosmic Stone from his private space, and this nearly thousand-meter immense Cosmic Stone immediately became the target of the Divine Soul cells. The black Cosmic Stone began to evaporate from one side and was absorbed. Suddenly, a series of breaking sounds were heard, and Little Zi’s thirteen Female Demon avatars also completely shattered into Cosmic Stone vapor, which was absorbed by the Divine Soul cells. Additionally, the souls of those thirteen Female Demons were drawn into the interior of the Divine Soul cells!

Long Yi was continuously monitoring the changes in his contract to ensure that Little Zi had no issues, but currently, Little Zi couldn’t convey any information.

The volume of the nearly thousand-meter immense Cosmic Stone reduced by almost half before it completely ceased, and Long Yi put away the Cosmic Stone. Ahead, the Divine Soul cells had turned into a black color, obscuring any internal changes, while the red light flowed continuously like veins.

Thump, thump!

Powerful heartbeats sounded, causing even Long Yi’s Divine Status to tremble, while the Divine Envoy sister stepped back several times. Long Yi pulled her behind him, but the Divine Envoy sister shook her head, saying, "It’s no use. This is a resonance from the Divine Status; it’s the same everywhere."

Subsequently, the heartbeats continued, becoming faster and stronger. And mysterious Divine Texts began to appear on the surface of the Divine Soul cells!

"These Divine Texts... they’re even different from mine! Could it be, is this the birth of a new deity? But that’s not right. This universe already has one deity; it’s impossible for a new deity to emerge!" the Divine Envoy sister said, clearly puzzled.

Long Yi didn’t understand; he was just nervous, eyes fixed on the changes occurring within the Divine Soul cells.

Suddenly! A pale hand burst through the surface of the Divine Soul cells, and a beam of light along with Divine Texts shot out, but the light moved very slowly. After circling in the air, it ended up surrounding the Divine Soul cells! Then, one after another, girls dressed in sumptuous dresses flew out from that pale hand, quickly transforming to normal size. They circled around the Divine Soul cells, chanting a mystical chant, which was like no text Long Yi had ever heard before.

And with the chant, the pale hand also slowly retracted, while the black outer shell of the Divine Soul cells gradually faded.

Soon, a girl curled up there appeared in front of Long Yi. She had long black hair, was dressed in a gorgeous maid’s outfit, and was barefoot, seemingly deep in sleep. Then, her long eyelashes twitched slightly, and a pair of red eyes entered Long Yi’s view.

Theoretically, this should be Little Zi; at least, there wasn’t much difference in appearance.

But was she Little Zi?

At that moment, the grand chant of the surrounding girls also reached its climax.

Then, Little Zi unfurled her curled-up body, stretched lazily, and slowly spoke, "I say, do you really need to continue singing this song that even I don’t understand?"

The girls around her immediately burst into laughter, the chant disappeared, and the accompanying Divine Texts also vanished.

Long Yi smiled; yes, there was no mistake. She was Little Zi.

The process had gone smoother than Long Yi had anticipated.

Little Zi floated over to Long Yi, gave a cheeky military salute, and declared, "Little Zi, reporting in!"

"How do you feel?" Long Yi asked with concern.

"It was a bit scary at first, but I quickly figured out the workings of the Divine Soul, so there wasn’t much to worry about after that. However, there were a few side effects..." Little Zi said.

"Side effects? What are they?" Long Yi immediately became nervous again.

"Look behind you," Little Zi said somewhat awkwardly.

Long Yi turned around and saw the Divine Envoy girl crouching on the ground, huddled and trembling.

"What’s happening?" Long Yi hurried over. The Divine Envoy girl was Wesley’s wife, and since she had come here, it was his duty as a ’brother’ to take good care of her, though her current state wasn’t quite right.

"It’s... it’s nothing, her Divine Soul is just too strong, and it scared me a bit. It’s fine, I will adapt to her Divine Sense soon enough, don’t worry." The Divine Envoy girl’s trembling seemed to subside a bit.

Then Little Zi had to take a few steps back and tried her best to contain her Divine Power. Soon, the Divine Envoy girl finally regained her composure, stood up, and though she still couldn’t look Little Zi in the eye, she was no longer afraid to stand beside her.

"It’s really unexpected for this to happen; I never thought that there would be two gods in the same universe," the Divine Envoy girl said with a sigh.

"It probably shouldn’t count as two gods, after all, I don’t have Divine Sense," said Little Zi.

"No, you’ve misunderstood. Divine Sense means the consciousness of a god. Once you possess both Divine Soul and Divine Status, your consciousness naturally becomes Divine Sense. So now, like Long Yi, you are a god who has Trinity: Divine Soul, Divine Status, and Divine Envoy," the Divine Envoy girl explained.

Little Zi looked down at her own hands; she didn’t feel any divine self-awareness.

"What should I do then, create something?" asked Little Zi.

"I don’t know, but I do know that anything involving Long Yi tends to become illogical. Not only did a god appear out of nowhere in this universe, but now you’ve appeared as a second god, which doesn’t comply with the cosmic rules or the divine ordinances because there definitely shouldn’t be two equal gods in any universe..."

The Divine Envoy girl stopped before she could finish.

"Wait a minute!"

"Wait a minute! Wait a minute! Wait a minute! Long Yi! You and Little Zi have a covenant, right?" asked the Divine Envoy girl.

"Yeah," Long Yi instinctively checked the covenant, and there was nothing wrong with it.

"Then, look at who is among your believers," the Divine Envoy girl suggested.

Who among his believers? Long Yi checked his believers, and just as he opened the channel of faith, he saw a golden beam connecting his chest to Little Zi’s chest, which not only Long Yi saw but also Little Zi and the Divine Envoy girl saw it.

"Oh my God, I didn’t think this could actually happen. When one god believes in another, the most unlikely possibility stipulated by the divine ordinance is right here. As far as my limited memory goes, this is the first occurrence of a god being a believer of another god," the Divine Envoy girl exclaimed, her face filled with disbelief.

"Is the condition that stringent?" Long Yi wondered.

"Not at all stringent, but in the context of the war among gods, having one god believe in another is utterly inconceivable," the Divine Envoy girl said.

"If one god believes in another, will anything inappropriate happen?" Long Yi looked at Little Zi with some concern, and Little Zi looked back at him with equal worry.

The Divine Envoy girl chuckled, clearly, they were both concerned about each other, rather than themselves, and nothing could be more solid than this concern.

"Actually, no god knows, because you are the first such case. Or maybe I should ask you, do you feel anything wrong?" the Divine Envoy girl asked Long Yi and Little Zi. Long Yi and Little Zi looked at each other, then at themselves, and almost simultaneously shook their heads. Clearly, there was nothing wrong between them.

"Since there’s nothing wrong, it should be fine," the Divine Envoy girl smiled.

Suddenly becoming a god felt like nothing special. Little Zi had already had two thousand times Divine Status, so she didn’t feel much different. If anything, her Divine Power recovery speed was faster, and her perspective on things seemed slightly different now. Now, whenever Little Zi looked at anything, she felt as if she could see right through it. Meanwhile, some mysterious Divine Texts kept emerging in her mind, but funnily enough, she couldn’t understand them herself.

Little Zi’s thirteen Female Demon Avatars lost their Cosmic Stone bodies, becoming semi-energetic life forms again, but Little Zi reshaped their bodies with her Divine Power. This allowed them to infuse their Magic with Divine Power, which could penetrate most Mana shields.

When Long Yi brought Little Zi back, neither Ai Lin, Silver Light, Xiaodie, nor Suolin could tell anything different about her, other than her red eyes.

Little Zi was somewhat helpless; her eyes constantly flickered with red light, almost like an Ascender.

Then, at that moment, Long Yi finally began to continue with his plan.

Initially, Long Yi planned to simply weaken the Black Dragon Man again to resolve the current issue. However, later when he discovered that the transformation of Black Dragon into Dragon Man was due to some sort of faith power, he immediately felt that there might be another solution.

And that other solution was for the Black Dragon to switch their faith! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to contribute recommendations and monthly tickets at Qidian (qidian.com). Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
