“Ding! Assimilation successful. You have obtained 3 Dragon Bone Herbs!”
“...”
“Ding! Assimilation successful. You have obtained a Fusion Laws of Nature Fragment! Will you assimilate it?”
“Another fusion laws of nature fragment? Never mind, let’s just assimilate it... It’s thunder-ice fusion laws of nature this time.”
“...”
“Ding! Assimilation successful. You have obtained a Divine Core. Will you assimilate it?”
“Another divine core?”
Meng Lei perked up again, and with a flip of his right hand, a divine core appeared on his palm. It was a dark-elemental divine core that was pitch-black in color all over and emanated strong, surging dark-elemental power of divinity.
“The power of divinity energy fluctuations on this are about the same as those on the water-elemental one. It’s likely also a lesser deity’s divine core. What a shame that I can’t assimilate it. It’s so tempting!”
“...”
“Ding! Assimilation successful. You have obtained a Fusion Laws of Nature Fragment! Will you assimilate it?”
“Assimilate it! ...This time, it’s light-water fusion laws of nature.”
“...”
“Ding! Assimilation successful. You have obtained a Crystallized Divine Spirit Extract!”
“A Crystallized Divine Spirit Extract? What’s that?”
A golden rhombus-shaped crystal roughly the size of an infant’s fist appeared on Meng Lei’s palm.
Just a glance at it was enough to turn Meng Lei dizzy. It was as if his entire spirit had been lured into the crystal!
“Dodola, what’s a Crystallized Divine Spirit Extract?”
Meng Lei had no choice but to rouse the fast-asleep Dodola from its slumber.
“Don’t you know that disturbing someone’s sleep is very rude and immoral behavior?”
Despite being extremely displeased with Meng Lei’s actions, Dodola nevertheless still provided him with an answer.
“A Crystallized Divine Spirit Extract is the crystallized form of a divine spirit that has been extracted from a divine core and processed.”
Meng Lei asked, “Extracted from a divine core? What can this thing do?”
“Because it has gone through special processing, Crystallized Divine Spirit Extracts no longer contain the dead deity’s will, memories, divinity, laws of nature comprehension, and other information related to its original owner,” Dodola said, “Therefore, Crystallized Divine Spirit Extracts are the purest and cleanest material form of a divine spirit, and is a treasure that can enhance one’s divine spirit.”
“Enhance one’s divine spirit?” Meng Lei’s eyes lit up as he asked, “Are there any side effects?”
“No, there aren’t!”
“Got it. You can go back to sleep now.”
“Why are you suddenly asking about that?”
“Nothing much. It’s just a casual question.”
“There’s no use asking about that because it’s impossible for you to get any Crystallized Divine Spirit Extracts anyway. That thing is ridiculously expensive. Even one that’s processed from a lesser deity’s divine core is worth tens of thousands of Divinity Crystals!”
A mumbling Dodola then went back to sleep.
“Impossible to get?”
Meng Lei was beside himself with joy as he gazed at the golden rhombus-shaped crystal sitting on his palm.
“Not only can it enhance my divine spirit, but it doesn’t carry any side effects, either!”
What was he waiting for, then?
“Assimilate!”
Buzz...
At once, the Crystallized Divine Spirit Extract disappeared!
At the same time, Meng Lei felt a strong, torrential, and icy aura gushing into his sea of consciousness and furiously strengthening his divine spirit.
Boom!
In the span of a few short breaths, his divine spirit had been enhanced by quite a few times.
His mind became even more agile, and his consciousness even more alert right away. The range of his divine cognition became even wider, and the laws of nature became even clearer and more distinct.
“It feels so strong!”
The feeling of his divine spirit continuously strengthening was simply too wonderful. If it were possible, Meng Lei really wished that it could continue strengthening.
Alas, there was a start and an end to everything.
A brief moment later, everything came to an end and vanished.
When Meng Lei opened his eyes and glanced at his stats interface, he couldn’t help but be awfully comforted.
Host: Meng Lei
Race: Human (Contains Gods-Slaying Rat bloodline <100%>)
Wealth: 13.57 million Laws of Nature Origin Crystals
Physical Body Constitution: Half-Deity (High-Grade)
Spirit: Half-Deity (High-Grade)
Power of Divinity: 0.1 Divinity Crystal
Laws of Nature: Wood-Earth Fusion (0.1%), Metal-Dark Fusion (0.1%), Thunder-Ice Fusion (0.1%), Water-Light Fusion (0.1%)
“Enhancing my divine spirit from elementary-grade to high-grade had required only a tiny, little Crystallized Divine Spirit Extract!”
Meng Lei couldn’t help but marvel, “This thing sure is good stuff! Here’s hoping I can pick more up in the future!
“Oh, right! Dodola once said that the level of difficulty in laws of nature assimilation is related to how strong one’s divine spirit is.
“Now that my divine spirit has strengthened by so much, surely it has become much cheaper to buy credit for laws of nature assimilation now?”
Meng Lei promptly contacted the system. “System, how much does it cost to raise my wood-earth fusion laws of nature assimilation rate by 1%?”
“10,000 Laws of Nature Origin Crystals!”
“10,000? Haha!” Meng Lei was overjoyed. “I was right! The cost has indeed lowered significantly!”
Previously, it had cost 100,000 Laws of Nature Origin Crystals to raise his wood-earth fusion laws of nature assimilation rate by 1%!
But now, it required only 10,000 Laws of Nature Origin Crystals, making it only 10% of what it had previously cost. It had become so much cheaper!
“Little did I think that enhancing the divine spirit would actually bring such benefits. Say no more, we’ll talk again after I’ve raised all eight fusion laws of nature—wood-earth, metal-dark, thunder-ice, and light-water—to 100%!”
Whoosh!
His Wealth instantly shrank by four million Laws of Nature Origin Crystals. The stats interface also underwent a change.
Wealth: 9.57 million Laws of Nature Origin Crystals
Laws of Nature: Wood-Earth Fusion (100%), Metal-Dark Fusion (100%), Thunder-Ice Fusion (100%), Water-Light Fusion (100%)
“Someday, I’ll definitely be able to fuse all ten types of laws of nature into one!”
Meng Lei was filled with
