Chapter 874: Divine Stone for Building Upgrades
Fang Jie had no idea that someone had already set their sights on him, and even if he knew, there was nothing he could do.
Three months after devouring the other party's Divine Domain, a figure suddenly appeared in the void. If Fang Jie were here, he would realize that this was a male elf-like god, somewhat resembling the Forest God.
"Damn, how is it so fast."
From a distant Divine Domain, even if you manage to conquer it, it takes a long time to completely devour it.
If you want to rush, there would be many traces left, but there were none here. The surrounding void was clean, indicating that the entire Divine Domain had been devoured, leaving nothing behind.
Fang Jie had also done thorough cleaning work, so no traces were left in the void.
Finding Fang Jie's location by following traces was impossible. Besides, Fang Jie's plane had already moved, and it wasn't in the original position. Finding a location in the void wasn't so easy.
If you deviate even a little, who knows where it will lead, and that's the real problem.
"Even if I can't find you in the void, there's still the Gods Continent side, I will definitely find you."
The god on the other side shook vigorously, causing the surrounding void to become chaotic, and then disappeared.
On the other side, Fang Jie had completely devoured the entire Divine Domain, doubling the area of his own Divine Domain. The inside of the Divine Domain now had a feeling of vastness with sparse population.
Despite continuously increasing the population and encouraging childbirth, many areas remained uncovered.
Fortunately, in his Divine Domain, all the basic facilities were free, so there were no educational burdens.
Otherwise, his Divine Domain might have seen a negative population growth. After all, if the cost of raising children is high, not many would want to have them. These are the lessons of the past.
But even so, it seemed the speed of the Divine Domain's area expansion far exceeded the speed of population growth.
Forget it, let's not worry about these and first check my own situation.
During this time, his Undead reserves not only recovered from previous consumption but had doubled compared to before the great war.
Fang Jie didn't stop; he planned to continue increasing, aiming to increase five to ten times before stopping temporarily. This number of standing troops wasn't small among the Weak Gods, right?
As for those Middle-Level Gods, Fang Jie didn't think much about it.
Against deities of that level, no matter how much reserve troop strength he had, it wouldn't help.
Once a war breaks out, it wouldn't be a regular Divine War. If he couldn't suppress the opponent, the opponent could severely damage his Divine Domain with just one strike. It's even possible to shatter his Divine Domain in an instant, which isn't impossible.
Between gods, even a single level difference is like night and day.
Even within the same level, the gap can grow increasingly large.
As for Fang Jie, after refining the Forest God's Origin and with the World Origin Power gained during this time, his strength had increased rapidly, raising his own attributes to the level of 7.
What's more, it was a comprehensive enhancement, already more than doubled.
Feeling his own power, compared to his earlier self, he could easily crush himself.
Furthermore, his Law Strength had also surged from 20 to 42, again doubling. However, the displayed strength wasn't merely double.
If it were the former Forest God, even unweakened, Fang Jie could probably defeat that killer move head-on. Currently, his Law Strength, among the Weak Gods, was already considered old-school.
After all, the Law Strength of Weak Gods ranges between 10 to 99. Surpassing thirty marks the mid-stage, surpassing sixty marks the late stage, according to Fang Jie's own definition.
Although he hadn't reached the late stage, there weren't many Weak Gods reaching the late stage originally.
Except for those with exceptional talent, ordinary gods progress quite slowly. Yet compared to himself, there might still be many stronger Weak Gods, so he still needed to be cautious.
As for the previous Forest God, if he hadn't been weakened, his Law Strength would likely have been near 50, Fang Jie calculated silently. Indeed, these veteran gods were still formidable.
"Right, there's still the Treasure Box, I seem to have forgotten it."
Fang Jie took out a colorful Treasure Box obtained after killing a god.
The name of the box was the Mythical Treasure Box, which seemed to be what was gained after killing a god, differing only in contents. But upon opening the box, Fang Jie was a bit surprised.
Because he had obtained a special gemstone, a building upgrade gemstone (Miracle).
That's right, this was a stone capable of directly upgrading a building, at the Miracle Level, allowing an upgrade from the Gold Level building directly to a Miracle Building.
This item was something that had not been heard of before.
He had browsed the discussion forums, where many had indeed obtained Mythical Treasure Boxes since hunting gods wasn't impossible. However, the items inside were never as advanced as this.
Except in the rarest cases, there might be items to upgrade a building to a Miracle Building or even obtain direct blueprints for Miracle Buildings, but such upgrade gemstones hadn't appeared.
As for others possibly concealing this, Fang Jie thought it unlikely.
On one hand, if people could obtain it, they couldn't conceal it. On the other hand, there was no need. Even if someone concealed it, what could they gain? It wasn't something exclusive or dangerous by phases.
"So, the appearance of this item might be due to Talent. People from Earth have the innate Lord's Cottage ability and are suppressed by the world's pressures, only this generation has it, so there must be something special."
While being born with a Lord's Cottage accelerates development, it doesn't mean much to gods.
Their talent is suppressed by the Laws of the All Heavens Hunting Ground, and certainly for a reason.
Reaching the Divine Level and getting an upgrade gemstone could be one such reason. The probability of acquiring this was definitely higher than other items.
Having abundant Miracle Buildings could indeed make his development much smoother.
Unfortunately, this was a troop building upgrade gemstone, so other buildings couldn't be upgraded. These gems might also have specific uses. "Nevermind, since it can be used, I'll use it."
It was just right, having given up upgrading the Skeleton Conversion Field last time; now it could make up for that.
