98: Chapter 98 The Secret of Heavenly Profoundness.
[Divine Name: Tianxuan!]
[God of Sky Patrol]
[Divine Office: Patrolling the heavens and auditing the gods; supervising deities while acting as the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao to punish gods who violate the rules.]
[Divine Wish Power: Middle Stage of Star Radiance]
[Divine Skills: Gods Listening (New), Divine Affinity (New), Hall of Divine Judgment (New), Contract Divine Map.]
[Gods Listening: Can hear calls of distress within a certain range.]
[Divine Affinity: Passively emits a divine aura; people and contracted beasts within range will be attracted by the divine aura (contracted beasts receive double the effect).]
[Hall of Divine Judgment: As the God of Sky Patrol, the misdeeds of every deity encountered will be recorded in the Hall of Judgment. Once the misdeed value reaches a certain threshold, the Hall of Judgment will automatically open. The God of Sky Patrol can punish them within the Hall; in severe cases, the divine soul can be directly executed (this divine skill ignores cultivation level; all gods are equal within the Hall of Judgment).]
[Current Contracted Beasts: Sky-Swallowing Azure Dragon (Second Tribulation · Totem Grade), Chongming Divine Sparrow (First Tribulation · Totem Grade), Abyssal Mosquito Emperor (First Tribulation · Totem Grade), Heaven-Devouring Black Tortoise (First Tribulation · Totem Grade)]
[Remaining Contracts: 8]
[Current Evolution Points: 1800... 18010... 18020...]
...
After becoming a god, the attribute panel had changed drastically, but...
Evolution Points still existed, and they were now increasing by ten points per second...
Looking at the skills, Chu Ran fell into thought.
God of Sky Patrol?
This position seemed to be called an inspector back on Blue Star...
Gods Listening went without saying; it was normal to have something similar to Spider-Sense after becoming a god...
Divine Affinity...
No matter how he looked at it, this skill seemed like passively emitting a succubus aura... it even had a double effect on contracted beasts...
Hall of Divine Judgment...
This one seemed even more heaven-defying...
It automatically recorded the misdeed value of every deity. Once it reached a certain level, he could even summon the other party's divine soul in a dream to punish them without even meeting...
The most terrifying thing was that this skill actually ignored the level gap!
In other words, if Chu Ran encountered a Moon Brilliance Realm Deity whose misdeeds met the execution criteria, he could even pull their divine soul into the Hall of Judgment and execute them directly...
This God of Sky Patrol...
Really is powerful no matter how you look at it!
But...
There was a drawback: it was too easy to make enemies...
It would be easy to be surrounded and killed by a coalition of gods; the mortality rate in the line of duty probably wasn't low...
Calling it the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao sounded nice, but maybe the Heavenly Dao just didn't want to offend people and specifically found a god to do this kind of work...
However, for Chu Ran... this was a good thing.
Because he was born for this!
When killing Nether Prison, the Sakura Sun Pope, Qiu Rongzi, and Luo Shu just now, he could feel a genuine sense of satisfaction!
It was like completing achievement quests!
He felt he was very suited for this position!
...
Lu Xiu, who was off to the side, had long since woken up. Discovering that he could resurrect after dying once and had successfully stepped into the Ninth Revolution, he was spinning around happily, muttering something like "so I really am the Chosen One."
The nearby Ninth-Turn Experts looked at each other and smiled, ultimately choosing not to shatter his chuunibyou dream...
"My... Master, you've come at the right time. Watch me show off my divine might..." He was just about to use a skill when he turned and found only dozens of warships left in the sky, with not a single person in sight. He asked in confusion:
"Eh? (⊙o⊙) Where are the people?"
"I sent them away," Chu Ran said calmly.
Lu Xiu was startled, then immediately showed an expression that said 'as I expected': "I knew a powerhouse like you, Master, wasn't a local of Tianxuan. You must know them, and they left out of respect for you, even leaving the warships for Tianxuan, right..."
Chu Ran was amused by his words, and a smile appeared at the corners of his mouth: "Indeed, they are old acquaintances."
"Oh, right, my... Master." Lu Xiu leaned into Chu Ran's ear and whispered, "I suspect I have a system..."
Chu Ran looked surprised.
"Just now I awakened a panel, and the system told me that I'm actually an Attendant God Envoy!"
"Do you know? That's a servant of a deity!" Lu Xiu said excitedly.
Chu Ran nodded: "Which deity?"
"I don't know what he looks like, I only know his divine name. What was it called..." Lu Xiu scratched his head and thought for a while:
"Tianxuan!"
Chu Ran feigned surprise.
Seeing the surprise on Chu Ran's face, Lu Xiu put his hand on the other's shoulder and said confidently, "To be able to make me his servant, this god must be ridiculously strong!"
Chu Ran nodded.
One corner of Lu Xiu's mouth curled up as he raised his head high: "How about this, Master? I'll look out for you from now on!"
"Sure."
Hearing this, the pride on Lu Xiu's face grew even more intense, then he suddenly thought of something: "Master, your contracted beasts are so powerful, you should at least be able to be a servant to a God of Contracted Beasts."
"I'm currently a 'poop scooper' for these beasts, so how does that not count as serving them?" Chu Ran chuckled.
"Hah! True. Right now, every one of your contracted beasts is stronger than that deity from before..." Lu Xiu looked at the divine beasts returning from the Desolate Realm and noticed they seemed even stronger than the last time... no, stronger than when he saw them not long ago...
"To be honest, I don't really want to serve this bullshit Tianxuan," Lu Xiu spoke up.
"Oh?" A hint of curiosity appeared on Chu Ran's face.
"I feel like there's an aura about you that attracts me. Compared to him, I'd rather be your servant, Master."
Chu Ran slapped Lu Xiu's hand away; he felt the kid's gaze was looking a bit off.
Damn... has Divine Affinity already started working...
To stop this potential mistake from happening, Chu Ran felt he couldn't keep pretending: "To tell you the truth, I am Tianxuan..."
"Mm... I know, My God."
Chu Ran suddenly realized he had been played...
But seeing Lu Xiu's mischievous grin, revealing two rows of white teeth, he couldn't help but laugh too.
"My God, we shouldn't have to become a Land of Slaves now. Thank you."
Lu Xiu said respectfully, completely different from the chuunibyou brat from a moment ago.
"Just call me Master. I don't like the title 'My God'..." Chu Ran said calmly.
"Alright, Master. Thank you for the resurrection divine talisman," Lu Xiu said.
This kid, he was faking it from the very beginning!
"The atmosphere was too heavy just now, I wanted to lighten things up..." Lu Xiu smiled, then his expression turned serious: "Now I have something to tell you, a piece of information left in my memory by the resurrection divine talisman..."
Chu Ran was somewhat confused: "What information?"
"On the top floor of the Inheritance Pagoda, someone is waiting for you."
