The fusion of divine power went very smoothly. Jie Sheng directly increased Bai Yan's divine power compatibility to 30%, which was enough for him to train for at least several years.
This number can be improved even higher, but there's no need to do so for now. Being too hasty isn't a good thing. Jie Sheng plans to further solidify his proficiency and try his best.
The transformation process was quick, taking only a few seconds. Bai Yan's witnessing of Him without His death was proof of its success.
Jie Sheng has no true physical form; the form Bai Yan saw was merely a manifestation of some of his power.
That was the second small experiment that Jie Sheng did.
What Bai Yan saw was not an illusion, but a real scene. It was Jie Sheng's "divine kingdom," the place where he stored the primordial energy of chaos.
After Baiyan entered the divine kingdom, his consciousness merged with the origin of chaos, causing it to manifest corresponding scenes.
In a sense, Baiyan borrowed His power to fulfill his own wish.
What Bai Yan longed for was to live in a beautiful and peaceful world without wasteland, so he saw a world of green mountains and clear waters.
However, this idea was too crude. A world that is all show and no substance and has no complete rules is bound to collapse.
Fortunately, Jie Sheng also got the result he wanted: "Believers are called God's chosen ones because they can borrow the power of the gods."
Every time Bai Yan used the power of the Void Chaos God, he borrowed it from Jie Sheng.
Of course, simply borrowing and not returning is not acceptable.
Through prayer, believers can dedicate the power of their faith to the gods, who then transform it into divine power in return, forming a complete cycle.
Jie Sheng knew that this was the normal way gods managed things. If they continued to put things into the black box without letting them out, the world would eventually collapse because of its ever-decreasing size.
This act of plunder seems to be similar to that of the legendary evil god.
However, a new problem arose before him: how did the power of faith appear? It couldn't have come from nothing, could it?
If this is the world, where can it obtain new energy from?
With only one believer, Jie Sheng lacked a sufficient sample size, and after pondering for a long time, he still couldn't find an answer.
"Forget it, there are too many things to think about. I'd better figure out the Heart of Blackstone first."
This is an area of expertise for the "shelter," and they must have a wealth of relevant information. Let's talk about it when we have the opportunity to contact them in the future.
"...I...I've awakened?"
Bai Yan stared blankly at the two divine powers in his hands.
The power of nothingness is intangible, like an invisible mass of air; its existence can only be felt when one focuses their gaze upon it.
The power of chaos is formless, as if it contains countless colors. Just one glance is enough to plunge one's mind into chaos and sink into it.
When the left hand brushed across the wall, the bricks and tiles on it immediately crumbled and disappeared. When the right hand touched the floor, guided by the white rock, small grasses sprouted from the ground and stubbornly pushed aside the soil and rocks.
With his left fist dealing high damage and his right fist having a strong effect, he could even catch up with superhumans of a higher rank than Bai Yan.
The only weakness is that Baiyan has not yet mastered the means of ranged attack, and may be kited by others from a distance.
However, the power of chaos encompasses all things. Once Bai Yan's proficiency improves and he can transform and imitate the power of other pantheons, this weakness will no longer exist.
The Void Pantheon and the Chaos Pantheon have extremely high limits. The rules they contain are something that a normal world could never possess. Only an unknown being like Jie Sheng could create such special rules.
The scene before them was so shocking that a devout believer had received divine grace and successfully awakened two divine powers. Everyone even subconsciously ignored the fact that Bai Yan had spoken.
Of course, one reason for this is that they were not familiar with Bai Yan to begin with.
However, after today, they will all be Baiyan's relatives and friends... at least that's what they think.
A group of people surrounded Bai Yan, asking him about his well-being.
When they saw that Bai Yan had successfully awakened, they assumed it was his original talent, since he had already been detected as having a second-tier talent.
But Wang Yu could see clearly that this was definitely not the color that the rock divine power should have, not to mention that he had two kinds.
"He actually received a miracle?"
Wang Yu felt a rare pang of jealousy.
Since she became a chosen one, Jie Sheng has hardly spoken to her anymore. Even when he does respond, it's very brief. And from his monotonous answers, she knows that she is talking to the Black Box, not the real deity.
Why would an ordinary person with mediocre talent receive divine blessings? She was clearly the one chosen by the black box.
Even though the black box was still in her hands, the feeling of being overstepped made her feel disgusted, but she couldn't show it yet.
For the sake of future development plans, Wang Yuqiang forced a smile and presented Bai Yan with a divine relic as a reward.
"Be patient, be patient. Ignore them; they are nothing but insects, stepping stones on our ladder to godhood."
The influence of identity and power is enough to change people's hearts; she had completely forgotten that she was once one of them.
……
While Wang Yu was building up the church's foundation, Wang An officially embarked on his first mission.
To his surprise, this mission was not to resupply supplies to the inner and outer cities, but to go to a place on the edge of a place called the Misty Ruins, which was thousands of kilometers away from Strange Stone City.
Their mission was to transport a batch of valuable supplies from the city to that location.
"What bad luck, to run into such a mission."
"There was an earthquake just a few days ago, and now we have to go outside. These high-ranking officials really don't treat us like human beings."
"Sigh, that wasn't an earthquake. I heard it was because some cultists were summoning an evil god and wanted to destroy the world. You know what I mean."
"Oh? Tell me more..."
Given the tense situation, the mission could not be refused, and not only Wang An, but also the other team members complained.
Leaving the safe city of Qishi to go to the border area of Wuchuan Province doesn't seem like a good job at all.
Wang An sighed, resigning himself to his bad luck.
Not only their team, but also many other teams from Qishi City were sent along due to the preciousness of these supplies, along with a fourth-tier superhuman secretly supervising them, totaling more than one hundred people.
Among them is a familiar face, Harkley.
Harkley had already completed his previous mission and hadn't even had two days to rest before being sent out again. Fortunately, the City of Strange Stones was generous with its rewards, allowing his divine power fusion level to rise to another level, from 19% to 20%, successfully breaking through to the third tier and becoming an elite superhuman.
Harkley scanned the crowd and noticed Wang An in the group, recognizing him as the one with the Blood Moon Divine Talent from the White Stone settlement.
"What's going on? Isn't he from the Blood Moon pantheon? Why is he in this team? Is there some special arrangement?"
Although he had doubts, Harkley was only slightly surprised. He strictly followed the decisions of the higher-ups and never did anything unnecessary.
His mission this time was simply to act as a bodyguard and ensure the supplies reached the Misty Ruins safely.
