Chapter 562: Chapter 434 Living Long Without Being Foolish_1

"I can study this ability of yours, but I can’t guarantee any results," Eileena said after feeling a sense of wonder inside her.

"No problem, the important thing is your improvement."

"..." The Forest Witch looked at Zheng Yichen somewhat speechlessly, "I know you have high hopes for us, but some things just take too much time. In my world, the witch heritage has existed for a very long time. Although the knowledge I’ve acquired is complete, it requires time to build up."

Saying this made her feel somewhat melancholic. To put it bluntly, her foundation was just too weak. In her own world, she didn’t begin with a high starting point. She said, "Right now, Katrina and I are like graduate students."

"There’s no rush. Graduate students have to study for several years, and you haven’t even been here for one year."

"Yeah... You even missed the New Year," Alina said somewhat speechlessly.

"Eh, that can’t be helped." Zheng Yichen shook his head. New Year’s, although meaningful, was always a solo affair before he had people at home—just a decent meal on the day itself. Anything else? Nothing.

Without relatives or friends, the New Year of an invincible person was that casual, at most rewarding oneself with a few extra sets of exercises.

This time there was even less to say. Tia had sent him a text message right before New Year’s, and by the time he had completed the task and returned, New Year’s had almost passed.

"Alright, I won’t bother you anymore. You and Katrina design the equipment together; I’m heading out to handle some stuff."

Zheng Yichen rode his bike to where the fire dragon was located. He had contacted it in advance; the fire dragon wasn’t on a mission and could be approached directly. Seeing the fire dragon carefully inspecting him with wide eyes, he wore an expression that was hard to describe.

"My God! How many Divinity creatures have you killed?"

"You can sense that?" Zheng Yichen asked in surprise.

"Uh, the Divinity aura on you is very strong, yet also a bit odd." The fire dragon examined Zheng Yichen closely. To him, Zheng Yichen was like a Demigod, not the natural kind born from the union of a god and a human, but one that acquired Divinity through slaughter and plunder.

However, Zheng Yichen showed no signs of aspiring to godhood. That ’Divinity’ lingering in him seemed... somewhat useless. So, the fire dragon said, "This could make you a prime target for nourishing fruit, especially by those divine beings."

Zheng Yichen had accumulated a lot of ’Divinity’ that he couldn’t utilize well. Wouldn’t that make him a moving treasury in the eyes of some gods? Even some Godslayers would specifically hunt for Zheng Yichen, treating him as a big experience pack.

Dealing with Zheng Yichen seemed much simpler than dealing with a god.

"So what exactly is Divinity?" Zheng Yichen asked curiously.

"Uh." The fire dragon scratched its cheek, glancing at its huge computer, "you could think of it as a kind of permission in a game; the higher the Divinity, the greater the permissions."

"Based on what you’ve said, how do Godslayers fight against those gods?"

"Isn’t there hacking? Those with Divinity get permanent permissions, whereas hackers gain temporary permissions through their skills; that’s how they can slay gods, although the chances aren’t high." The fire dragon spread its claws, "Besides, aren’t you curious about these things?"

"Well, the Supreme Demons I encountered didn’t seem to have the permissions you’re talking about, no, that’s not right; I can’t say they didn’t have them."

"Then what use are your world’s Supreme Demons?" The fire dragon smacked its lips, "They must have something special, right?"

"Does immortality count? Even if you blast their souls to bits, without a way to eradicate them, you can’t kill them."

"Is that so... How extensive is that?" The fire dragon stroked its chin, "As far as I know, the gods in my world won’t fall as long as the Divine Flame remains, but they’re not as outrageous as you describe. Instant revival in prime condition? That’s probably the Divinity characteristic of that world. Do you want to die once to see?"

"I’ll drop you off first." Zheng Yichen glanced at the dragon expressionlessly, "Can Divinity be concealed?"

The fire dragon shook its head, "Not for you. And this Divinity is closely linked to you. You may not have discovered its use yet; even the most non-specific Divinity has passive effects."

Zheng Yichen clenched his fist. Passive effects? Did Unity of Heaven and Man count? There was also the exceptionally high Performance Coefficient of his body. After defeating a great number of Supreme Demons, it seemed like the performance of his body had reached an exaggerated level.

He looked at the fire dragon, trying out the concealment ability he had acquired from an alien demon. This seemed to have been enhanced by feedback from a Supreme Demon, but when he tried it, it didn’t seem that impressive—still unable to make him invisible: "How about that?"

"Hm?" The fire dragon paused, then sneered, "What a letdown, you still stick out like a sore thumb even after trying to hide."

"... Fine then." Seeing that the fire dragon didn’t react much, Zheng Yichen stopped trying to enhance his concealment ability, "Let me hit you with a punch to test it."

"No way!" The fire dragon immediately refused. Even if the environment was lousy in this world, thinking of Zheng Yichen’s earlier aura of Divinity, the fire dragon had no desire to be punched by him.

"I won’t kill you."
