Chapter 838: Chapter 838 – The Reactions of the Gods
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After everything was settled, Kalunu returned to Dragon Island, a little tired. Compared to before, he was in a very bad state at the moment. He looked completely exhausted.
To an ordinary person, this was an unimaginable thing. How powerful was a Supreme Divine Power? Even among the many divine existence, it belonged to the most honorable class.
What kind of thing could cause a Supreme Divine Power to weaken to such a state?
But at this moment, Kalunu was in such a state. Sowing the bloodline seed was a huge expenditure for Kalunu. It was much more than he had imagined. Of course, the main reason it was so huge was the kobold race.
There were simply too many of them, so it was naturally more difficult to sow the bloodline seeds, which required more energy.
Kalunu could’ve only sown a portion of the bloodline seeds, allowing a portion of the Kobolds to undergo a bloodline transformation. And then this portion of the Kobolds would spread the bloodline seeds to the entire Kobold race in his place. This way, the consumption would naturally be much smaller.
But considering all aspects and the overall effect, Kalunu still chose his method, which consumed more energy. The only fortunate thing was already power feedback after sowing the bloodline seeds.
This power feedback was through the bloodline connection method. After sowing the bloodline seeds, every life that had his bloodline born and died would bring him a certain amount of energy, increasing the total amount of energy.
At this moment, his strength didn’t increase much because the bloodline seeds had just been sown. However, as time passed, his strength would gradually increase.
This was worthy of Kalunu’s gratification.
Apart from that, the power of faith from the Kobolds was continuously replenishing, helping Kalunu make up for that terrifying deficit. These were all incremental gains.
Overall, what Kalunu did just now was like an investment. Although he had invested a huge amount of capital, there would be corresponding returns. It might not be obvious in the short term, but the returns would be huge in the long term.
Of course, the huge returns would be in the future. As for now, Kalunu felt that he should find a place to sleep peacefully.
At this moment, he had used up too much energy. He had just advanced to Supreme Divine Power, so the power base in his body was very weak. Now that he had used up so much energy, the deficit in his body had reached a certain level.
He had to fall into a deep sleep and recover himself.
“It’s nice that my main body has returned, so it doesn’t matter anymore…”
Kalunu looked at the vast world before him as this thought flashed. Under normal circumstances, someone would have designs on such a weak High-level Divine Power.
But now that Chen Heng’s main body had already returned to the World of Gods, there was naturally nothing to worry about.
How could there be someone who dared to attack Kalunu with Chen Heng around?
If there were someone who dared to do so, Kalunu would admire him. Even if he wanted to court death, he wouldn’t do it this way.

Without a worry in his heart, Kalunu roared in the air. The dragon’s roar spread out and shook the entire World of Gods, waking up all the existing divine existences.
Then, he spread his wings, covering the sky and almost half of the world, and flew back to Dragon Island.
Compared to other places, Dragon Island had the enchantment of the previous Dragon Gods and the power left behind by them. The environment was quite friendly for Kalunu, a Dragon God. It could speed up the recovery of his power while also providing him with a certain degree of protection.
Therefore, it was naturally his best choice to recover his power. Thus, Kalunu fell into a deep sleep.
However, the entire World of Gods had not calmed down for a long time. The dragon’s roar that shook the entire World of Gods was still echoing in the ears of many divine existences.
At this moment, all the divine existences’ gazes fell on Dragon Island. Their eyes were filled with contemplation and scrutiny, and even greed.
Faced with a weakened High-Level Divine Power, there would always be people who could not help but feel emotions in their hearts, and some longed to obtain its divine power.
Moreover, there were many such people, some of whom even had the same High-Level Divine Power. For example, the Eye of Chaos.
A huge eye slowly opened in a desolate area and looked toward Dragon Island. There was some thought in the huge eye.
“The Dragon God of the Giant Dragon race…”
He thought and looked at the area where the Kobolds were in the distance. He couldn’t help but come to a realization. “So that’s the case…
“As long as the Kobolds are organized, even such a small race can have such power and provide such a huge power of faith…”
The Kobolds had always been ignored by the gods in the World of Gods. This was because this race was too weak.
In the past, it was not that there were no gods who looked at this race. They also valued the powerful reproduction ability of the Kobolds, hoping that the Kobolds could provide them with a huge amount of faith.
Therefore, in the past, there was a god who sent down his avatar and turned it into a Kobold, leading many Kobolds to build their kingdom. But time after time, he failed thoroughly.
The reason was simple. It seemed nice to let the Kobolds provide the power of faith. After all, there were so many Kobolds. The power provided by their reproduction would be nice.
But this was just a thought. There would be too many problems in the actual operation. The first was the food problem. In a stable environment, the Kobolds reproduced very quickly. But here came the problem.
The Kobolds only cared about birth, and the gods above only cared about faith. Then what about these newborn Kobolds? Would they all be fed with air? Without sufficient food, these Kobolds would all starve to death.
To solve this problem, the god came up with different plans. One of them even opened up a series of divine spells to strengthen the land so that the land could provide sufficient food to the Kobolds.
But the final result made people dumbfounded. After the power of faith that the Kobolds provided to the gods was converted into divine power, it was probably less than half of the divine power consumed.
This was a loss-making deal!
Then the god studied the root cause. In the end, he found that the intelligence of the Kobolds was naturally inferior to that of humans and other races, so the power of faith they provided was too weak.
If he wanted to solve this problem, he had to solve other problems. However, with the exaggerated reproduction speed of the Kobolds, any problem would be infinitely magnified in this race.
Moreover, with the expansion of the Kobold race, where they would stay was another question.
To occupy an existing land?
The believers of other gods probably would not agree with this idea. One had to fight off many desert races to develop in the desert. With the weak strength of the Kobold race, it was likely that they could beat no one. In the end, they could only rely on god to act.
But was it so easy for the god to make a move? In that era, desert races were everywhere the desert. There were two kinds of gods whom the desert races believed in. One kind was the gods, who were always strong in the desert. The other kind were gods who ran to the desert after they had failed in a competition in other prosperous places.
In that era, it was easier to calm the desert and create a living space for the Kobolds. Moreover, even if they succeeded, what should they do as the Kobolds continued to reproduce?
Therefore, in the end, the god who had tried had to leave the scene with tears in his eyes, almost dying because of this. This matter had left a deep impression on the gods in the World of Gods, and that god had become a laughingstock.
After that, no gods had any intention of targeting the Kobolds.
The desert itself was also a place that people ignored. In the past, the Kobolds had always been very low profile, so in the previous hundreds of years, not many people paid attention to them.
Or even if they did, they would not feel that a group of Kobolds could be a threat. It was not until today that the gods were shocked to discover that the once insignificant Kobolds could erupt with such power.
In the Eyes of Chaos and other gods’ opinion, a large part of the reason that the newborn Dragon God, Kalunu, could advance to High-Level Divine Power was probably supported by the Kobolds.
If they could kill Kalunu, seize his divinity, and seize the newly born Kobolds, they could…
If the gods thought about this idea, they would be tempted. This era was no longer the same as the past. In the past, there were also many gods in the desert and even more Demigods.
But after the previous Armageddon, the gods in the desert had all disappeared at this moment. Even if there were still some remnants, it was not enough to be relied on now. They were just divine remnant souls. The Kobold Kingdom could rule the dessert because there were no other competitors.
Also, the Kobolds were different now. The Kobolds now had a prosperous civilization. Their powerful technology and industry were completely different from the previous Kobolds.
The Kobolds in the past might have only been a burden, but today they were giving off vigorous vitality, making people feel tempted at a glance.
To put it bluntly, for the many gods who had just recovered and were yearning for faith, the Kobolds Kingdom was a piece of fat meat. All of them wanted a piece of it after seeing it.
If Kalunu were at his peak, the deterrence of a High-Level Divine Power would have been enough to make the gods dismiss this idea. But now, Kalunu fell into silence. It seemed that he had fallen into weakness because of his previous actions.
So was it time to make a move?
At this moment, this thought flashed through the minds of the gods.
In the Oro Empire, the God of Shadows looked at the Kobolds in the desert and was enlightened.
“So that’s how it is…”
Looking at the independent and strong kobolds in the desert, he couldn’t help but feel surprised. He had experienced a similar surprise once in the Primogenitor World.
He had thought that nothing would surprise him this time when he returned to the World of Gods. However, he had never expected to see these Kobolds again.
“Transforming these Kobolds to their current state is amazing…”
Looking at the scene in the distance, the God of Shadows sighed and could not help but say.
He had existed in the World of Gods for many years. In the past years, he had witnessed the changes in many races. He had also seen some races go from weakening to prosperity, then from prosperity to decline and extinction.
He naturally knew what the Kobold race was like in the past. He also knew how much effort it would take to slowly transform the Kobold race into what it was like now.
To a certain extent, it was remarkable that the unknown Dragon God could accomplish this.
Because he knew of the Dragon God’s ability, the God of Shadows’ heart did not waver when he saw the Dragon God’s weak state in the distance.
This was because he knew very well that with the Dragon God’s ability, the other party would not allow any possible danger to happen. If someone wanted to attack while the other party was weak, it would be a waste of effort.
Just as he expected, a moment later, a terrifying energy fluctuation came from Dragon Island. Within the entire Dragon Island, an invisible ripple rippled and then enveloped the entire Dragon Island.
Every blade of grass, every tree, everything was enveloped and became a part of it, protected within. Someone was making a move, protecting the entire Dragon Island.
The person who made a move was very powerful, probably at least a High-Level Divine Power.
Who was the one who made the moves?
At this moment, this thought flashed through the minds of all the gods watching the Dragon Island.
A High-Level Divine Power must be someone with a glorious history in the World of Gods. He must have left traces of his reputation. Therefore, the High-Level Divine Power that attacked them was most likely someone they had come into contact with before and were familiar with.
However, they felt extremely unfamiliar with that layer of protection, as if they had never come into contact with it before. This completely unfamiliar divine power surprised all the gods.
Who Was It?
This thought flashed through their minds, and they could not figure it out. Of course, it wasn’t that no one recognized the owner of this divine power.
For example, the God of Shadows and the God of Nature recognized the owner of this divine power. They were also surprised, but obviously, they wouldn’t tell anyone about this news.
“It’s him…”
Sensing the aura coming from the layer of divine power, the God of Shadow frowned and said, “Is the Dragon God related to him too?
“No wonder.”
A High-Level Divine Power couldn’t appear for no reason. But if Chen Heng supported it, the mastermind behind the scenes, everything made sense.
From the looks of it, this mastermind had left more than one nail in the World of Gods.
The god of shadow shook his head, and this thought flashed through his mind. No matter what he thought in his heart, the appearance of Chen Heng’s aura in the distance had indeed repelled those gods who were restless in their hearts.
