Chapter 168: God of d*ath Profession! [Request for Monthly Ticket]

The silver dragon – Alexandrina stood frozen in place, afraid to move.
However, after Soren had suppressed Milco’s consciousness, he turned to look at her and frowned, saying, “What are you still doing here? Preparing for a heart-to-heart with these Dragon Witch Sect members?”
Upon hearing this, Alexandrina swallowed hard, and her long-held breath finally released.
It seemed the terrifying Evil God before her held no malice; otherwise, she wouldn’t have made it this far. Alexandrina immediately got up and bowed, saying, “Honorable Lord of Shadows!”
“Then I shall take my leave!”
Silver dragon Alexandrina spread her wings and soared into the air, flying toward the mountains.
At this moment, Soren turned his head; he seemed to shake his head in regret, and then walked towards the Dragon Witch Sect camp. Since he had already struck, he had to eradicate the threat entirely; this camp must be completely destroyed, or it could easily attract the attention of other deities. The giant dragons that once needed to be looked up to could now be easily extinguished, and after becoming a deity, Soren felt that the world had become smaller.
The entire battle did not last long.
Although the Saint’s Cataclysm saw many deities fall, the power of True Gods began to transcend mere mortals!
Not to mention Soren, whose divine power was medium; to k*ll him, all members of the Dragon Witch Sect would have to join forces, and even then they would have only about a 30% chance of success. The place before him was merely a camp of the Dragon Witch Sect, with only two dragon liches and a few high-ranking members. However, they provided Soren with valuable killing experience and loot; he gained over five million killing experience and some legendary items, and he also extracted dragon crystals from the dragon liches using the Soul Extraction Technique. This was a rather domineering method and could easily offend dragon deities, as it would imprison the dragon’s soul in the process.
………………
Modo City.
At the top of the Arcane Tower, Gloria sat cross-legged before a crystal ball.
The Saphiras scepter was in her palm; accompanied by silvery light, a bit of divine power was drawn from it and gradually merged into Gloria’s body.
It seemed she had reached some kind of critical point!
Suddenly, Gloria’s long hair danced in the wind, and she, along with the Saphiras scepter, emitted a divine glow. The light from the Saphiras scepter gradually dimmed, while the divine brilliance emanating from Gloria intensified.
The power of prophecy enveloped Gloria’s body, representing a thread of laws from the deity gradually merging into her.
It was as if she had broken through the boundaries of space; Gloria’s eyes turned a silvery hue.
“Congratulations!”
Soren’s figure suddenly appeared on the tower, standing behind Gloria, joyfully saying, “It seems you have mastered the power of prophecy!”
Saphiras is the God of Prophecy.
At the same time, as a failed contender for the God of Mages, He also possesses the divine profession of prophecy spells. Before acquiring this artifact, Soren erased Saphiras’s will, and Gloria herself was a master of prophecy; upon drawing that power, she immediately underwent a promotion.
At this point, Gloria had become a demigod of prophecy!
“I think I see something!”
Gloria turned to stand up, her expression appearing somewhat fatigued, murmuring, “The domain of deities is truly vast! I seem unable to grasp this power just yet!”
The divine profession of prophecy was merging into Gloria’s body.
This allowed her to use any prophecy spells and to see glimpses of future fragments, but mastering such a divine profession posed many difficulties. As a recently promoted mortal, Gloria faced even more troublesome challenges than Vivian; she found it significantly harder to control this power than Vivian did.
“Don’t rush,” Soren said as he embraced Gloria gently, adding, “You’re just getting started.”
“As you accumulate divinity and divine status, you will gradually adapt to this ability.”
“For now.”
“You should temporarily set aside matters of the Arcane Tower and let Alice handle them. During this period, I will teach you how to adapt to the powers brought by your divine profession.”
Neither Vivian nor Gloria had the support of a system.
Soren could quickly adapt to divine professions, but he still experienced a period of rejection, nearly causing a mental breakdown. Gloria’s current situation was similar; the prophecy had allowed her to perceive far too much, but she couldn’t harness it; Soren had to help stabilize her mind. This process could take up to a month; fortunately, Gloria didn’t inherit too much power. Otherwise, she would need a long time to adapt to her divinity, much like Vivian.
“By the way.”
Gloria seemed to think of something, murmuring, “I feel like I can sense the structure of the Magic Network!”
“And.”
“It seems I sense the position of the Goddess of Magic dimly! In the southwest of this world!”
The God of Mages was also in trouble.
When Soren acquired the Saphiras scepter, some of the divine powers of the Mage God also merged within. It appeared that Gloria had received a hint of the Mage God’s abilities, thus enhancing her sensitivity to the Magic Network.
“The Goddess of Magic is to the southwest?”
Soren pondered upon hearing this and then said, “For now, try not to use the power of prophecy. Wait until you have fully absorbed the power of the Saphiras scepter and advanced to weak divine power before attempting to access the Magic Network to acquire the [Mage] divine profession.”
Gloria nodded.
Soren had already entered the domain of deities; whether for himself or to be with Soren, she had to gradually step into the world of deities.
………………
In the study.
Two Sorens appeared here, but soon one gradually dissipated.
A strange crown floated in Soren’s palm; he reached out to caress the crown, feeling its tremor; then the golden divine light flickered in his eyes, and the next moment, a powerful divine domain enveloped the space.
A torrent of divine power surged into the crown.
The lingering soul of the former God of d*ath, Milco, let out a piercing wail, but it was ruthlessly suppressed by Soren’s overwhelming will for slaughter; the lingering soul of a decayed deity could not withstand him. With the extraction of divine power, some data appeared in his vision.
“Discovering [d*ath] divine power!”
“Extract energy!”
“You have extracted the divine power of the high artifact [Crown of Horns]! You have gained 10 points of divinity! You have gained 5 points of divine status!”
“[d*ath] domain has been enhanced!”
“You have obtained an information upgrade for the [d*ath] divine profession!”
“Abilities upgraded!”
“Your [d*ath] domain has evolved into [d*ath] divine profession!”
The third notification regarding the [d*ath] divine profession appeared. When Soren completely siphoned the divine power of the Crown of Horns, his realm of d*ath transformed into the divine profession of d*ath.
However.
Although he acquired the d*ath divine profession, due to the newly acquired ability being very weak, Soren did not develop new divine abilities. The primary reason was that the power of d*ath was still held by Klanvor and Naraku. Gaining this divine profession only indicated that he could acquire d*ath believers and allow zealots access to the domain of d*ath.
The divine glow dissipated.
As Soren extracted the power of the Crown of Horns, this high-level artifact rapidly turned into a mundane item.
“Hmm?”
Soren toyed with the artifact in hand, murmuring, “Although the divine power is gone, its properties are still quite decent!”
——”Divine Power Creation!”
——”Make high-level magical items!”
——”Change form!”
Along with the golden divine glow, the Crown of Horns in Soren’s palm transformed into a pool of molten liquid. He then infused a bit of his own divinity into it, and soon this artifact was reshaped.
Seven peculiar rings appeared before him.
Soren melted the core gem and infused it into the last ring, subsequently pouring in suggestion spells, control spells, and divine power bit by bit. The characteristics of the Crown of Horns resembled closely to the magical rings Soren had previously created; it also had psychological suggestion and mental control effects. This time, he had used the Crown of Horns to remake seven magical rings and kept the last one as a controller, crafting it into a new artifact. Unlike the magical rings made in the past, this time the rings were infused with the power of the d*ath divine profession. These rings would grant the wearer powerful abilities, but, due to the properties of the Crown of Horns, the rings would also erode the wearer themselves.
Ultimately!
The wearers of the magical rings would be transformed into the undead upon d*ath, and they would be elevated to a higher level of bound spirits endowed with d*ath power.
“The Crown of Horns itself already has bound spirits.”
Soren contemplated for a moment, drawing a bit of divinity from his brow, then said, “In that case, let’s use the magical rings’ essence as a medium for creating high-level bound spirits!”
Bit by bit, divinity was infused into the magical rings.
The original power of the Crown of Horns was further enhanced as Soren abandoned the advantage of quantity and focused on the power of d*ath. When the first master of these magical rings dies, a powerful bound spirit would emerge. The artifact was gradually completed, and Soren inscribed his own runes upon the magical rings before promptly gathering them all.
These magical rings were complete.
However, whom they should be bestowed upon still required consideration, as the abilities of the first master influence the power of the bound spirit.
………………
Bottomless Abyss. Third layer. Land of Forgotten.
In the depths of the fiery lava, the figure of Balroth Fire Demon leader – Soren appeared.
Behind him was a line of fire demons; compared to a short time ago, their numbers had significantly increased, and the number of fire demons had risen to eight.
Under Soren’s gaze, these fire demons one by one entered the magma. Subsequently, he slashed his palm and injected a bit of Balroth Fire Demon’s bl**d into it; this could act as a medium to help the fire demons advance. When the accumulated demon power became sufficiently strong, these fire demons would have the chance to mutate and elevate into new fire demons.
Soren looked down at the magma pool before him, muttering, “It’s about time to prepare for a bl**d war!”
