I have an Apocalypse City
Chapter 1712 - Chapter 1712 Chapter 1713 City of Divine Signs

Chapter 1712: Chapter 1713: City of Divine Signs Chapter 1712: Chapter 1713: City of Divine Signs Feeling the immense Star Power transmitted from the Main Deity position, Song Jian’s divine form improved slowly, even without accelerating the comprehension of the Power of Law, incrementally boosting his strength.

It could be said that deities with divine positions, even without active cultivation, would have a cultivation speed that those without divine positions could not match!

There were four Main Deity positions remaining, and eight ordinary positions had opened up. The deities who had been driven out of the Pantheon could compete for these eight ordinary positions. In the Divine World, they had one chance every year to compete, but they could only vie for these eight unless someone was promoted to Main Deity, which would then increase the number of positions available.

“Alright, the Main Deity Council is now in session. Does anyone have any topics they wish to discuss?” Lord of Space looked towards the Lord of Light; each time the Main Deity Council met, he was reluctant to speak, so it was always the Lord of Light who asked.

The several Main Deities exchanged glances; for Song Jian, it was his first time entering the Pantheon, so he kept silent on the side, while the other Main Deities hadn’t expected that the Pantheon could commence their assembly so soon and hadn’t thought of any good topics to discuss.

The Lord of Light glanced at the Lord of Space, both revealing expressions of helplessness. The Lord of Light could only stand and loudly declare, “Since there are no topics, then let this session of the divine council end here. Everyone, return to your respective temples!”

“My friends, the foreign tribes have already begun to assemble a great army. It seems their treacherous hearts are not yet dead. It looks like their target is still the Pantheon. Once you return to your temples, continue to hunt and kill these foreign beings,” the Lord of Space suddenly spoke up.

“Hmph, ignorant creatures. This time, I shall hunt a million of these foreigners!” the Lord of Cruelty snorted coldly, his two heads wearing fierce expressions.

“My friends, till the next council, goodbye.” The Lord of Light glanced at the Lord of Cruelty, then his figure disappeared from his throne, leaving only a faint afterimage maintaining a sitting posture, lingering above it.

Soon, one by one, the Main Deities chose to leave, each leaving behind only a faint phantom on their thrones except for Song Jian, who remained on the Main Deity throne.

Song Jian, able to sense the Star Power from the Main Deity throne, wished he could sit there 24 hours a day. However, seeing the afterimages left by the other gods, he quickly understood.

These afterimages must be similar to avatars. As long as they were seated there, their true forms could continuously feel the nourishment of the Star Power.

“How exactly can I leave behind a similar phantom avatar?” Song Jian wondered silently to himself.

Just then, a system prompt suddenly appeared before his eyes:

System: Do you wish to leave the Main Deity throne and the Pantheon now? If you choose to leave, you can leave a phantom avatar behind on the Main Deity throne to continuously experience the Star Power. The avatar will incur some loss in transmitting Star Power, and the true form will only receive about 80% of the Star Power!

“I can operate like this?” Song Jian’s eyes lit up, and he turned to look at the other ordinary divine thrones. Indeed, it seemed that the ordinary thrones had this function as well, as most of the deities had already left the Pantheon, leaving behind a phantom avatar on their respective thrones.

In fact, the avatars from ordinary divine positions could only retain half of the Star Power, meaning they were only 50% effective, far less than the Main Deity positions.

After Song Jian chose “Leave,” his true form was immediately transported back to his own temple, leaving behind a phantom avatar on the Main Deity throne.

Even within his own temple, Song Jian could feel a continuous stream of Star Power converging onto him from the void. Now, even sleeping, his strength would slowly grow–an incredibly exhilarating feeling.

“I should probably construct a Divine Power Ancient Well now, otherwise, there would be no supply of divine power; the Power of Faith should still be used to raise the level of the faith altar and to accelerate the growth of the Paso Fruit Tree,” Song Jian thought to himself.

Unfortunately, constructing the Divine Power Ancient Well requires a large amount of divine power, and also the construction blueprints for the well, which are not available among the buildings of the Shattered Divine Realm.

Just as Song Jian was pondering how to obtain the blueprints for the Divine Power Ancient Well, a faint chorus of prayers reached his ears, sounding like hundreds of flies buzzing incessantly, causing a bit of irritation and confusion.

“Prayers?” Song Jian frowned slightly as he listened carefully and realized that all of them were prayers from his followers, rising up to him.

“My followers seem to have increased by quite a bit?” Song Jian was somewhat surprised. In the Shattered Universe, the base number of creatures was not large; now he had just over a hundred followers, but the prayers he now heard were from at least eight or nine hundred people.

“How did this happen?”

Following the prayers with his divine consciousness, spreading out towards the distance, indeed, under the perception of his divine sense, two coordinate-like locations appeared: one was the altar in front of the Tree of Life in the Shattered Universe, and the other was the City of Hope in the game world.

“Could it be that I also have followers in the City of Hope?” filled with curiosity, Song Jian couldn’t help but look towards the City of Hope.

Sure enough, in the central square of the City of Hope, a colossal statue of Song Jian stood, with hundreds of people kneeling on the ground, engaged in prayer rituals.

Song Jian’s Power of Faith increased at a visible rate, at least ten times faster than before. He saw that almost all the higher-ups of the City of Hope were praying.

After listening for a while, a wry smile appeared on Song Jian’s face; the prayers of the higher-ups in the City of Hope were quite different from those recited by the ordinary followers.

Their prayers were actually reports on the development of the City of Hope, sounding as if subordinates were reporting to a boss, which made Song Jian feel somewhat bemused.

With a thought, a ray of divine light fell from the Chaos Divine Temple towards the game world, merging into the great statue in the City of Hope. In an instant, Song Jian’s statue in the City of Hope radiated a dazzling divine light, and a pale, rainbow-colored light dome enveloped the entire City of Hope.

“A divine sign! The Lord of Chaos has bestowed a divine sign, from now on, our City of Hope is also a City of Divine Signs!” Wang Qi exclaimed with surprise and delight.

To become a City of Divine Signs is not an easy task; it requires making substantial offerings to a deity. Some cities even split their lands to acknowledge the independence of the deity’s propagated religion, considering it a city within a city, which might possibly lead to a deity bestowing divine signs and becoming a City of Divine Signs.

The City of Hope was established too recently to have any heritage that could catch a deity’s eye, but what no one expected was that the owner of the City of Hope was a powerful deity. For other cities, it would be a very difficult task, but for the City of Hope, it was quite easy.

Just as Wang Qi thought, as long as Song Jian heard their prayers in the Divine World, he would indeed bestow divine signs, transforming the City of Hope into a City of Divine Signs.

From then on, there would no longer be incidents like monster sieges in the City of Hope. Within a thousand miles of the entire City of Divine Signs, no hostile forces could appear, greatly increasing the security of the city.
