Chapter 703: The Lord God

Lin Feng stepped out of the teleportation portal, and the familiar air of Feng Huo Territory rushed towards him.

The gatekeepers, numbering in the tens of thousands, immediately stepped forward, simultaneously placing their right fists against their chests in a salute: "Welcome back, Lord!"

Lin Feng did not respond.

Because the guild leader's token in his arms was getting hot.

It wasn't just slightly warm; it felt like a red-hot iron, its scorching heat palpable even through clothing.

At the same time, a series of system notifications flooded into my mind.

【It was detected that the H5 Unity Guild leader's bound plane quality is Dark Gold, and he possesses a special Pure Land.】

【Conditions for Scheme 02 are met.】

【Now relaying the information left by the General Manager to President Lin Feng.】

【Ascension to Godhood: After meeting three essential conditions, the probability of directly breaking through to godhood is 10%. If one possesses a special sacred land, the probability increases to 40%.】

【Note: Lower-level gods promoted through this method are "imperfect lower-level gods".】

【To ascend to the rank of a perfect lower-level god, one must obtain a "Proof of Transcendence."】

【How to obtain the Proof of Transcendence: The drop rate is 1 in 10,000 for high-ranking Apostles of opposing factions and 1 in 100 for high-ranking Apostles.】

【Note: Obtaining a special Pure Land is already difficult, and a 40% breakthrough probability is extremely high among those of the same level.】

While imperfect breakthroughs have weaknesses, they are not insurmountable and can still be corrected through other means in the future.

Please act within your capabilities, and do not miss opportunities for breakthroughs in pursuit of perfection.

Lin Feng stood in front of the teleportation gate. Several tens of thousands of generals were still in the posture of bowing. He waved his hand to indicate that they didn't need to, but his mind was racing.

The president of the Tongxin Association is still the most generous.

As long as the conditions are met, this intelligence will be given away for free, without a single unnecessary word.

In contrast, Viscount Yongye not only refused to tell him the truth, but also fabricated false information to mislead him, which was utterly disgusting.

But before he could finish his reflection, the token in his arms became even hotter.

This time, it was no longer a simple text prompt, but a massive torrent of information that flooded his mind like a burst dam.

Lin Feng grunted and stood there, closing his eyes to process what he had just learned.

It took him a full half-cup of tea time to slowly open his eyes, his face full of shock.

So many secrets were hidden before; I'm indebted to them now.

This information is divided into two parts.

Part One: Knowledge of Deity Hierarchies

Gods are divided into: lower-level gods who have not mastered the laws or are comprehending the laws, and middle-level gods who have mastered the lower-level laws.

High-ranking gods who have mastered the intermediate laws, high-ranking gods who have mastered the superior laws, and supreme gods who have mastered the ultimate laws.

The advancement of gods is never a gradual process, but rather a leapfrog advancement.

For example, if you become a lower-level god and then directly master the higher-level laws, then you become a higher-level god.

Of course, the probability of this is so small that it can be ignored.

Most gods take a steady and methodical approach, starting with lower-level laws, accommodating multiple lower-level laws of the same origin, creating resonance, and giving birth to higher-level laws.

Part Two: Information Related to the Law.

Most gods comprehend lower-level laws through fragments of those laws.

The main way to obtain Law Fragments is through special monsters that spawn in special planes, where there is a chance of them dropping when killed. However, these planes have been monopolized by high-level gods.

The middle law is basically obtained by mastering the resonance of multiple lower branch laws, and so far no location has been found where middle law fragments have fallen.

As for the superior rules, they are divided into two categories.

One type can be generated by the resonance of multiple median laws.

For example, life, as the supreme law, has branches such as growth, reproduction, healing, nourishment, and adaptation as its intermediate laws.

If you grasp even a few of these principles, you'll have a high chance of resonating with the laws of life.

The bad news is that most of the higher laws that can be resonated through the middle law have already been accepted by others.

Another type of superior law does not have a resonance path itself.

The laws of love are a typical example. Subordinate branches such as attraction and attachment can lead to the laws of intermediate emotions, but they can only create one-way attraction and cannot resonate with the laws of superior love.

The reason is that love is a two-way street. A high-ranking deity once attempted to deduce that it would require two gods who each mastered the laws of the middle realm of emotions to resonate with each other, but this condition is extremely difficult.

The core principle is that both people must resonate with each other simultaneously, willingly, and without any one of them being absent.

Furthermore, once the resonance is complete, one of them must relinquish their independent authority over their half of the law, allowing the other to hold the complete law of love; otherwise, the relationship will fail.

Another example is despair.

Giving up, collapsing, hopelessness, numbness, and sinking into despair—these lower-level branches can only resonate with the middle-level "Law of Sadness."

The core of despair is "the nothingness after hope is completely shattered." There must be hope first, and then hope must be crushed before despair can arise.

But here's the problem: hope itself is a superimposed law.

For ordinary gods to deduce the Law of Despair, they first need to possess the Law of Hope, and then shatter hope in order to satisfy the conditions for the condensation of the Law of Despair.

But the law of hope cannot be purely deduced; it must be born from despair.

Thus, a vicious cycle was formed, recognized by all the gods: to attain despair, one must first have hope.

To have hope, you must first have despair.

There are many similar examples, such as luck, misfortune, and evil, all of which fall into this category.

However, there is also an opportunity to directly grasp these higher-level rules.

The Grand Master knew that many higher laws, after being neglected for too long, would create a world of trials.

Once you enter and pass the test, you can obtain it.

However, the success rate is too low; only those who perfectly fit this rule can succeed.

Finally, there is one more note.

As the protector who has mastered the highest laws, it has been said that there is actually another way to master higher laws, which is to be "born with a very special law".

For example, a person is born with the law of hope.

He doesn't need deduction or resonance; he hopes the laws of hope are etched into his soul the moment he is born.

If such a person were to attempt the trials of the Law of Despair, their success rate would be hundreds of times higher than that of ordinary gods.

Why?

Because a person born with the law of hope is the embodiment of hope, when that hope is shattered, it is the shattering of the purest, most fundamental, and most genuine hope.

The trial is directly recognized.

The same applies to the reverse.

People born with the law of despair have a high success rate when they attempt trials of hope, because they have experienced the deepest despair.

This is the advantage of those who are born with innate laws.

They themselves are the answer to the trial.

After processing all this information, Lin Feng stood there in silence for a long while.

The law of probability... what level of law does it belong to?

Luck is the overarching law, but what about probability? It sounds like a branch of luck, but it doesn't quite seem right.

And the last note, "People who are born under the law, does that count as me?"

He glanced down at the token in his arms, which was gradually cooling down, but there was no answer.

Pulling himself out of his thoughts, Lin Feng casually nodded to the ten thousand guards at the gate and leaped towards the council hall of Hangu Pass.
