222: God's Blessing

“Just as I thought,” Qin Tian muttered, his brows furrowing slightly.

The levels of these Western Cultivator players confirmed his suspicions.

These Western Cultivator players hadn't reached level 500 by relying on divine power.

If that were truly the case, divine power would have long since become commonplace.

There was only one explanation: they had received the so-called blessing of a God, absorbing a portion of the God's power as they called it.

This was how they gained their level advancement.

Qin Tian had encountered this situation before.

However, at that time, he had faced the subordinates of an evil God.

They were monsters of other races who, after absorbing the evil God's power, transformed into a divine race, gaining a massive increase in level and attributes.

Now, it was the players of the Western Xiu Continent.

Another Western Cultivator player emerged from the cave, his face beaming with excitement: “I have six wings! Finally, six wings!”

He shouted excitedly, and the other Western Cultivator players, seeing the six pristine white wings behind him, cast envious glances his way.

Most of the Western Cultivator players here still only had four wings; they were already very satisfied if this blessing allowed them to reach six wings.

“My turn, my turn!”

The Western Cultivator player at the front of the line eagerly walked towards the cave entrance.

Qin Tian had already understood the situation before him. Without hesitation, he, in his Stealth state, suddenly accelerated, taking a step forward, directly surpassing that Western Cultivator player, and entering the cave first.

The excited Western Cultivator player, who was running into the cave, directly crashed into an invisible barrier, blocked outside the cave and unable to enter.

“What’s going on?”

The Western Cultivator player, blocked at the entrance, looked at the cave entrance in bewilderment.

“Did the God’s entrance close?”

“That’s impossible. Only two people have gone in so far; at least fifty can enter at once.”

“What exactly is happening?”

The other Western Cultivator players also turned pale with fright.

This was the first time they had encountered such a situation.

“What are you panicking for?!”

Tomark looked at the Western Cultivator players. As an eight-winged being, his strength was undoubtedly the strongest among this group of Western Cultivator players.

When he spoke, all the Western Cultivator players immediately quieted down and looked at him.

“The runes at the cave entrance are still flickering, which means it hasn’t closed. The reason you can’t get in is because someone is already inside.”

“Someone snuck in when we weren’t paying attention.”

“All Guild Leaders, check your numbers. Who is it that’s so disrespectful of the rules?”

As soon as Tomark’s words left his mouth, the Guild Leaders of the Western Cultivator players quickly sprang into action, beginning to count their members.

“Our guild is fine.”

“Everyone from our guild is here too.”

“The numbers are correct, we haven’t lost anyone.”

...

The Guild Leaders of the various Western Cultivator player guilds quickly finished counting their members.

All the numbers were correct; not a single person was missing.

“If no one is missing, then someone extra got in. Someone used a method to get in ahead of us when we weren’t paying attention.”

Tomark quickly made his judgment and immediately tried to communicate with the God inside the cave.

He violently tapped the flickering runes at the cave entrance, and the frequency of the runes’ flickering intensified.

“Who has awakened me?”

A cold voice resounded.

Tomark quickly said, “God, someone entered your cave without our notice. This is a desecration of you. Please strike him down.”

The surrounding Western Cultivator players also quickly chimed in, “Please, God, strike him down!”

“He is not worthy to receive your blessing, God!”

The number of God’s blessings was limited, and the Western Cultivator players who came here were all personnel under the strongest guilds of the Western Xiu Continent who had paid a huge price.

They would absolutely not allow anyone to secretly enter the God’s cave without their permission.

“Quiet.”

The indifferent voice sounded again, and the excited Western Cultivator players quickly quieted down.

“Anyone who enters the cave is fated with the God. The God’s embrace is infinitely vast.”

The indifferent voice faded.

The runes on the cave also stopped flickering, and everything became quiet.

“Lord Tomark, this!”

A six-winged Western Cultivator player moved closer to Tomark, a worried expression on his face.

The players who came here were all members of the strongest guilds on the Western Xiu Continent, and they were in a cooperative relationship.

So they all hoped that their strength would become even greater after receiving the blessing.

That way, once the world barrier broke, they could sweep through the players of other continents.

And now, a player not from their alliance had snuck in, which undoubtedly added too much uncertainty.

None of the Western Cultivator players present wanted the mysterious player who entered the cave to receive the blessing.

They did not want an uncontrollable force to appear on the Western Xiu Continent.

Tomark waved his hand, signaling him not to say more.

“God’s embrace is vast, but that doesn’t mean we can tolerate his presence.”

“Activate all anti-Stealth skills. Once the player inside comes out, we will instantly strike him down.”

Tomark quickly issued the command.

Now that he was an eight-winged angel, he had absolute leadership.

As soon as he said this, all the Western Cultivator players relaxed.

What they feared was Tomark being indecisive and wanting to absorb such an uncontrollable force.

As for the strength of the player inside, they didn't care at all.

This kind of accident was only happening for the first time, and the first time one received a blessing, they generally gained the power of a two-winged angel; obtaining four wings was already extremely rare.

Now, all these people had already experienced a blessing once, some even multiple times.

Most of them were four-winged, and quite a few were six-winged, and even Tomark was already eight-winged. Dealing with a player who was only receiving the God’s blessing for the first time was truly very simple.

The Western Cultivator players quickly took action.

According to Tomark’s request, they stood ready.

Various anti-Stealth skills and items had already been activated. As soon as a player emerged from the cave, they would be instantly discovered.

Then, under their fierce skill attacks, they would be instantly killed.

※ ※ ※ ※ ※ ※

Qin Tian did not know what was happening outside the cave; he had already entered the cave.

The cave was not large. Qin Tian had only walked for a short while before he reached the end.

At the end was a huge, transparent egg.

Inside this egg was an angel with twelve massive, golden feathered wings on his back.

He was completely naked, yet he did not inspire the slightest desire for blasphemy; he looked so sacred, as if light had descended upon the world.

“You have come, my child. Come, receive my blessing, and let the seeds of light spread across the entire continent.”

The angel in the transparent egg spoke, his voice carrying immense penetrative power, as if resonating deep within the soul.

Qin Tian’s expression was indifferent as he slowly walked over.

The Dragon Sealing Blade was already in his hand.

The moment he saw the transparent egg, Qin Tian activated his reconnaissance skill.

Relying on his level advantage, he saw the attributes of this giant angel.

It was precisely the God of Curse he had been searching for.
