Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 879

Chapter 874 The First Manifestation of the Persepolis Gods!

The Divine Eye screamed as Hussein’s Blood Ancestor True Form’s blood claws struck his eyes directly.

The curse power previously reserved within him erupted instantly, two advanced geometric curse spells of the same structure combining and complementing each other within his body, exploding in an instant, causing damage tenfold.

Thus, this was the Two-Strike Kill Blood Curse. This

was a second-circle blood curse invented by Hussein. At this moment, under the effect of this instantly erupting curse energy, the Divine Eye’s body began to dissipate and disintegrate.

Hussein and Locke both looked at the Divine Eye.

Although they didn’t know how this guy had come down from the crater, could they kill him this time?

A darkness appeared inside the Divine Eye’s pupils, as if torn apart by curse energy, and soon this darkness would cover his entire radiant eye.

His pupils, suspended in mid-air, rotated, releasing divine light outwards—actually, Ling Hong was unleashing light from within him through light and shadow.

The darkness formed by the curse was corrupting the spiritual energy within the Divine Eye, which could only be released through light and shadow, manifesting as golden radiance.

“Ah… Wizard!”

The golden pupil within the Divine Eye spun rapidly, like a person blinking.

“Wizard!”

“Kill me… Wizard! How dare you deceive me!”

Countless spiritual energy burst forth from its eyes.

Hussein sneered, “This guy… actually thought he could use me. Little does he know, I hate being used. Besides, although that Book of Gods sounds good, even if I obtained it, it would be difficult to contend with the Blood Demon Palace of the Pale Pilgrimage.”

“I still need to invest excessive resources in it,”

Hussein said. “I have virtually no interest in it.”

Locke extended his palm, and a primordial fire appeared. He used the primordial fire to intercept some of the spiritual energy emanating from the Divine Eye’s pupil.

“This guy… keeps spewing out spiritual energy. Is it possible for a normal life form to spew out so much spiritual energy?”

Locke sensed something was wrong.

Meanwhile, the innermost part of the Divine Eye’s pupil was almost completely filled with darkness, leaving his eyeball empty, a void of darkness.

Hussein frowned, staring into the boundless darkness deep within the Divine Eye’s pupil.

“Dead? No…”

A spark suddenly surged from the depths of the Divine Eye’s pupil, like a flint striking and sliding across the surface. Although it was only for a moment, a spark flashed within the Divine Eye.

“Ah!”

This spark emerged from within the Divine Eye’s pupil, then transformed into a powerful energy that surged towards Hussein, Locke, and the Wind Giantess.

In an instant, at the very center of the boundless darkness within the Divine Eye’s pupil, a spark of indescribable brilliance appeared.

The instant that spark appeared, the Divine Eye, which had completely lost all signs of life, miraculously emerged from death and regained life.

“Ah…”

The Divine Eye seemed extremely exhausted, panting heavily, its pupil still retaining a trace of fear and immense fatigue.

Hussein’s expression changed slightly.

“The Immortal Spark of Divinity?”

“Locke, that’s right, this guy is definitely from some god race in the Endless Void. Only those god races possess the Immortal Spark of Divinity. This guy is indeed a false god among the god races in the Endless Void!”

Locke’s gaze also became cautious.

Because the name “false god” is used by wizard civilizations, but in the Endless Void, these false gods are regarded as powerful beings in various worlds.

Yes.

The term “god above god” is a name that those god races like to use.

Only god-like creatures that can move between planes and expand their civilizations in the Endless Void can call themselves a god race and consider themselves superior to individual god-like creatures in a single plane.

Moreover, a god race must be a false god, a genuine god with divine status.

It’s just that, which god race is it?

Different god races represent different god-like characteristics, and their methods are also different.

Hussein said, “Something’s not right. How could the gods not have divine essence? But if they did, they would surely be able to distribute divine arts to their followers, and possess priests and churches.”

“But if he’s not a false god, why does he possess the Immortal Spark of Divinity?”

“If it weren’t for that Immortal Spark of Divinity, he would be dead by now.”

…

In the Golden Crown Mountain Library, Locke’s clone told the Ackerman troll wizard about the characteristics of the life form he had encountered that resembled a god.

Locke paid Old Bluehead 10,000 magic stones as a consultation fee, while Wizard Ackerman, after a brief moment of thought, concluded, “There are three main divine races in the Endless Void.”

“Besides, there are some minor divine races that appear occasionally. But there are only three established divine races. I believe the one you encountered was the Sower Gods, also known as the Persepolis Gods.”

Wizard Ackerman became serious and said to Locke, “Each member of the Persepolis Gods possesses the power and essence of a sun ring. They are extremely dangerous in the Endless Void. Their mission is to travel to various planes within the Endless Void to plant seeds of gods and divine realms. They excel at creating higher planes.”

“All three divine races possess the immortal spark of divinity.”

“But only the Persepolis Gods have the ability to create higher planes.”

“Based on your description, I judge that being to be a member of the Persepolis Gods.”

Locke’s expression changed slightly.

“A Sun-ring level existence?”

The Ackerman troll wizard nodded. “Yes. The Persepolis gods are extremely dangerous. If it really is them, you should stop developing that plane as soon as possible and arrange for a return journey.” “

Of course, the Persepolis gods usually operate individually or in small groups. They manage a higher plane as a divine realm in a certain location, pretending to be the creators of that plane, sowing seeds of their divine lineage in that region, and cultivating an environment capable of giving birth to the Persepolis gods.”

“During the Void Wars, this god race killed many of our wizards, and we also killed many of their gods. We are in an absolute hostile relationship with them. According to wizarding law, any wizard who sees this god race can immediately declare war.”

Locke began to ponder.

“There shouldn’t be any need to retreat immediately.”

If it truly was the complete Persepolis pantheon, a sun-ring level being, then he would definitely need to retreat.

After all, he had traversed vast distances of time and space to gain benefits, not to die.

But the problem was, no matter how he looked at it, that divine eye was only a second-ring level being, far from reaching the starting point of the Persepolis pantheon’s sun-ring existence.

Moreover, he now only had one eye left.

Locke, realizing something, asked Ackerman, “Old Blue Head, let me ask you a question. How many characteristics does a complete Persepolis god possess?”

Wizard Ackerman glanced at Locke and said, “An adult Persepolis god possesses at least seven characteristics.” “

The seven most basic characteristics are: divine nature, divine fire, divine name, divine office, divine magic, divine power, and divine realm.”

“Among these, divine nature is the most important. Divine nature is the divine personhood.”

“Young Persepolis gods generally only have four characteristics: divine fire, divine name, divine power, and divine nature. They lack the divine office, divine realm, and divine magic that represent their maturity.”

Locke instantly realized where the problem lay.

Whether adult or young, Persepolis gods all possessed divine nature.

But that divine eye didn’t!

That meant that the divine eye wasn’t a complete Persepolis god at all!

…

In the Three Cave Worlds, Locke’s true form told Hussein his conjecture.

Before them, the divine eye, having broken free from death, glared maliciously at Locke and Hussein.

“You dare deceive me!”

The next moment, Locke manipulated the Second Ring Sea Gold Sand, transforming it into a bolt of lightning that pierced the eyeball.

The eyeball plunged back into darkness, nearly killing him, but each time he was on the verge of complete death, a spark of divine immortality would flash from the deepest recesses of his eye.

It was like two flints striking each other in the darkness.

The flame illuminated the darkness and drove away death.

The divine eye would resurrect from death again, but each resurrection was accompanied by a gasp for breath.

Each time he resurrected, a specific spiritual energy would erupt from his eyeball, projected by light and shadow into a golden afterimage, which Locke would capture.

The Divine Eye glanced at Locke and Hussein, knowing he was doomed this time. He could only use the last remaining spark of divine immortality deep within him to absorb a wisp of world power—the Principle of the Sky. The Principle of the Sky instantly entered his divine fire.

Then, the Principle of the Plane, which had previously avoided Locke and Hussein, began to function in a civilized way the moment it encountered the spark of divine immortality.

It was no longer a primitive man wielding his club.

Instantly, the Principle of the Sky transformed into divine power, and a celestial gate opened, allowing the Divine Eye to escape.

Locke witnessed this.

“Hmm? It’s just a medium-sized, specific Principle of the World, but the moment it touches the divine immortality of the Persepolis gods, it undergoes a qualitative change.”

“Is this the power of the Void Gods?”

The Principle of the World itself wasn’t strong.

What was strong was the divine immortality of the Persepolis gods.

But this god before him lacked even the characteristics of divinity, divine office, and divine magic. He was like an incomplete being. It was unimaginable what incredible power would be generated if the same world power were to come into contact with divinity, divine office, and so on.

Hussein attempted to pursue him into the celestial realm but failed. Instead, the sudden closure of the Heavenly Gate by the Persepolis god resulted in Hussein losing a finger in the celestial realm.

Hussein, however, was unconcerned. He chanted a spell, and his missing finger grew back.

At the same time, he chanted another spell, directly beginning to curse himself.

He intended to curse his own bloodline to curse the severed limb he had deliberately left in the celestial realm. Hussein’s monstrous blood curse aimed to curse that finger into a monster,

so that monster could move freely in the celestial realm.

But the next moment, Hussein was dumbfounded.

“That god is quite capable,”

Locke asked. “What happened?”

Hussein replied, “He fused a principle of the world with his divine name, giving that principle of the world inexplicable power. Then, using that principle of the world, he destroyed my severed finger before I could curse it into a monster with independent will. That was the severed limb of the Blood Ancestor’s true form! This world shouldn’t have any power that could break through its defenses, not even the so-called principle of the world.”

“But the principle of the world only became powerful out of thin air by combining with his divine name, without any reason.”

The wind giant beside him was completely bewildered.

The situation had changed too quickly, even beyond her comprehension. She only saw Locke and Hussein clashing with that extremely evil eye, repeatedly bringing it to the brink of death. However, that evil eye had twice risen from the dead, sending chills down her spine.

Locke asked Hussein, “Now I understand why the Eye of God wanted to use me to kill the Demon Wolf Giant. If the Demon Wolf Giant dies, the Law of Death will regain his control.”

“Then what will happen? The Law of Death combined with his divine name and divine fire will make him even harder to kill.”

Hussein also found the situation deeply troublesome.

The Eye of God was cunning, but he wasn’t truly strong.

The problem was that he was incredibly difficult to kill.

Hussein said to Locke, “The Persepolis gods… as far as I know, their greatest strength lies in their divine realm, pantheon, divine office, and divine status… This god race likes to form alliances, and when they act, they unleash an entire pantheon.”

“Their divine status grants them many extraordinary divine powers.”

“But the Persepolis gods before us only possess a divine name and a divine fire. One can imagine that if we encountered the complete Persepolis gods, our situation would be far more difficult.”

Locke said, “Otherwise, the wizarding civilization would have already annihilated this hostile civilization. The fact that they still exist means this civilization possesses genuine power.”

“Hussein, I am now quite certain that this Persepolis god is dead, reduced to only a divine name.”

“Their divinity is only partially restored through the three planes.”

Hussein asked, “Why are you so sure?”

Locke, using the method of a name-based potion, collected the spiritual energy emitted from the divine eye and then refined it into drops of crystalline liquid.

“Look, this is the spiritual essence I obtained from him. A normal living being couldn’t possibly have so much spiritual essence. Unless… he’s just a name.”

“He might not be a true member of the Persepolis gods, but just a name of a member of that gods.”

“Since a complete adult Persepolis god would have seven characteristics, I dare say that either the god clan was destroyed, losing six characteristics and leaving only one, or the god clan split into seven, and what we’ve encountered now is its divine characteristic—its divine name.”

Locke dripped two drops of spiritual energy onto his and Hussein’s palms respectively.

Instantly, both of them received their corresponding names through this spiritual energy.
