I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means

Heart of Molten Fire,

Lis looked at Puer in front of him, feeling a bit helpless.

Wasn't he supposed to rest for a while?

Why does he come running every day to drink after just three days of rest?

"Ha~"

Puer gulped down the fine wine in his cup with satisfaction and exhaled deeply in pleasure.

Then he shook the now-empty wine bottle at Lis and said with a smile:

"Pour me another one."

"Just drinking some of your wine, don't be so stingy."

"After all, the wine in the Eternal Brew never runs out, don't I know this?"

"Pour a little more, and when you leave, I'll give you a gift."

"Lord Puer, you're too kind; how can I accept that?"

Lis, hearing this, hurriedly picked up the Holy Artifact Wine Bottle to pour wine for Puer.

The collection of a demigod surely consists of fine things.

These past few days, Lis has become quite familiar with Puer.

It's mainly because it's been a long time since Puer had a taste of the fine wine in the Eternal Brew.

After tasting it from Lis last time, he got somewhat addicted.

Anyway, this time, the Eternal Brew was in Lis's hands.

Drinking a little from this little brother, the people from the temple couldn't say anything about it.

After some interaction, Lis also found this demigod Puer quite interesting; he felt comfortable getting along with him.

Even though he is a demigod strongman, Puer didn't carry any airs of a strongman.

He seemed entirely different from the terrifyingly aura-filled strongman when Lis first entered the Heart of Molten Fire.

These past few days, Lis quickly became familiar with Puer.

During their interaction, Lis could feel that Puer's domain was related to fire.

Lis also asked Puer why he stayed in the Heart of Molten Fire.

In fact, a demigod strongman like Puer is a pillar of the Dwarf Clan.

No matter how important the Heart of Molten Fire is, if Puer himself isn't willing, even the Dwarf Temple couldn't force him to guard here.

However, in response to Lis's question, Puer laughed and said simply:

"I've lived for a long time, seen everything, and experienced everything I should."

"Now, to continue breaking through, I'm just missing a bit of an opportunity."

"Staying anywhere is the same to me; the Heart of Molten Fire is quite comfortable for living."

Alright then...

It turns out Puer didn't become the Guardian of the Heart of Molten Fire because of the temple's orders.

It's just because he lives here, so he guards it by the way.

No wonder he responded so quickly when disguised as a Day Elf intruding last time.

At that time, Lis was akin to a thief, directly breaking into Puer's home.

One can only say that Lis didn't expect there to be a demigod guarding the Heart of Molten Fire then.

"Alright."

After Puer drank up another cup of wine, he waved his hand at Lis and said:

"How about it, have you prepared enough?"

"Get ready; the Divine Power Baptism is about to begin."

"Alright, Lord Puer."

Lis stood up and then asked Puer:

"This is my first time receiving Divine Memory; is there anything I should be aware of?"

"Nothing much, just relax."

Puer waved his hand indifferently and said with a smile:

"The reason for letting you receive the Divine Power Baptism from Forging Sammekhar is partly because, during this Divine Power Baptism, you can also gain some of Lord Sammekhar's legacy memory in forging."

"On the other hand, it's because Sammekhar's Divine Power Baptism doesn't have high requirements for strength."

"This Divine Power Baptism is more about enhancing your Soul Strength and also allowing you to grasp Blazing Soul Power."

After a moment's pause, Puer looked at Lis and continued:

"The Blazing Soul Treasure Pearl is an extremely precious resource, and the Blazing Soul Power contained within will greatly aid your forging in the future."

"Don't just use it up casually."

Acknowledging Puer's advice, Lis nodded:

"I understand, thank you for the reminder."

It seems that the Dwarf Clan values the Blazing Soul Treasure Pearl greatly!

However, Lis didn't casually use this Blazing Soul Treasure Pearl.

He didn't even ponder about Holy Artifacts; he would only use this Blazing Soul Treasure Pearl in forging Half-God Artifacts.

"Alright, don't overthink it."

Puer patted Lis on the shoulder and said with a smile:

"With me here, you don't have to worry about anything going wrong."

...

He once again came to the magma pool at the core of the Heart of Molten Fire,

But unlike before, Lis did not enter the magma pool this time.

Instead, under the influence of an unknown force, he hovered in mid-air above the magma pool.

"Don't resist, just calmly accept the infusion of power."

Puer looked at Lis and said with a smile.

Lis didn't say much, just nodded slightly.

There's nothing he needed to do anyway, just wait patiently.

Puer looked at Lis closing his eyes, seeming no longer tense, and then raised his right hand.

Invisible waves spread from his hand, spreading upwards toward the Heart of Molten Fire.

The originally blazing golden magma slowly gathered at the top of the Heart of Molten Fire, like the most splendid dawn, continuously dripping into the magma pool below.

But under Puer's control, the blazing golden magma continuously aggregated and condensed, gradually forming a beam of pure golden light stream.

That stream of light dazzled with dazzling brilliance, like a star sliding from the sky, finally breaking free from Puer's restraint and falling straight down.

It lightly dripped onto Lis's head, and at that moment, time seemed to freeze.

As soon as the golden stream of light touched Lis's body, it instantly burst into an extremely dazzling radiance, enveloping Lis's entire being.
