Chapter 497: Divinity and Priesthood

Madness is an intense mental state and likewise an addictive and terrible disease.

From the success of the first hunt for the gods, in just one and a half months, Zhang Cheng successively attacked eight relatively weak gods, of which seven were killed, and one escaped with serious injuries.

At first, Manson and Sazastan maintained a close cooperation with him, but later found that the black dragon's madness was far beyond his expectations, and he decisively chose to part ways.

After all, they had already obtained what they wanted, and they were going to devote themselves to studying the corpses left behind by the gods after their deaths, rather than taking the great risk of being surrounded by the gods and attacking again and again.

But for Zhang Cheng, who is already a little out of control, destruction and killing are like drug addictions, torturing every nerve all the time.

At the same time, every time he succeeded in killing gods, he would transplant the blood or organs that gathered the most divinity and divine power in the other party's body into his own body.

In this way, as the divine powers of different camps and different attributes began to merge and converge in his body, he began to realize what divinity was and what was a priesthood.

The latter, as the name suggests, is the duty that the gods must perform.

For example, Mystra, the fallen goddess of magic, is mainly responsible for maintaining the stability of the magic net, promoting the prosperity and diffusion of magic technology, and allowing more people to enjoy the convenience brought by magic.

Another example is Mirkor, the god of death, whose duty is to judge and protect dead souls and send them where they belong.

In short, each god has his own authority, just like a bureaucrat in a political system, each in charge of his own domain, and while in charge of these fields, he will also obtain absolute dominance over that field, as well as corresponding special divine powers.

If there is no priesthood, then even if a creature has divinity and divine power, he cannot be called a god, let alone be recognized by the gods and gods within gods.

This means that it is impossible to become a god by killing a god.

Otherwise, the corpses of so many dead gods in the turbulent year would have been looted by mortals who wanted to become gods.

Ciric also didn't have to hesitate to seize the Tablet of Destiny and give it to the god Io in exchange for all the priesthood and power of the three gods of death.

As for divinity, it is a key, a key that opens the way to transcendent things and to immortality.

Zhang Cheng doesn't know how to describe this kind of thing in words, sometimes it seems to be a kind of cognition of the world and the universe, and sometimes it is like a perception of life.

The vast amount of knowledge accumulated through long lives, or the direct gift from the gods, in any case, some intelligent beings and sons of God will create an energy from nothing that suits their own characteristics.

And this special energy is divinity!

It's not arcane, it's not shadow, it's not evil, it's not positive, it's not negative, it's not any known energy.

On top of that, divinity can be plundered by killing gods, sons of gods, and divine creatures!

Once the divinity accumulates to a certain level, the divine power of the corresponding attribute will be derived.

Normally, mastering the above two points is basically a reserve god who has half a foot in the pantheon, even if it is compared with the genuine god, it is only one priesthood, and theoretically has most of the characteristics of a god.

There is no doubt that Zhang Cheng is in this state right now.

Due to the plundering of a large number of divine relationships, his original lava-like eyes have turned into dazzling gold, constantly exuding endless majesty, even Valindra does not dare to look up easily, once he meets the eyes, he will immediately be shocked in place for at least half a minute.

......

Jingle Bell!

Forty kilometers away from Luskan, in the underground mines, thousands of gray dwarf craftsmen were settling pieces of metal armor that fused the characteristics of Valyrian steel, mythril, adamantite gold, cold iron, demonized silver, augin, essentia ingots, and many other magical metals, and inlaid them one by one on the heavy and thick scales of the black dragon.

With the help of the faint light, it is clear that these armor pieces are inlaid with intricate runes and gems, and each time a piece of armor is successfully embedded, it emits a blinding light.

When the light disappears, the piece of armor will merge closely with the surrounding pieces of armor, and there will be no spots and gaps to be seen.

"Great master, your armor will be complete in ten hours at most, and the whole world will tremble under your wings!" said Shimmer as he stepped closer, cautiously complimenting.

Although he was once an invincible black dragon, he now did not dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction with the majesty of his kind in front of him.

The reason is very simple, with the help of divine power, Zhang Cheng has now swelled to a length of one hundred and thirty meters, and the height of his limbs is more than twenty meters, and the entire Faeron Continent cannot find a second dragon that is larger than him, and his size alone is enough to crush most of the primeval dragons.

In fact, there was no room for his body to grow at this point, and it was simply a stereotype, otherwise he would not have followed the example of Deathwing and covered himself with an indestructible layer of alloy magic armor.

In order to ensure the integrity of the armor, various protective capabilities, and not affect the casting of spells, he almost exhausted his inventory, and even went to the dark region to plunder two underground gnome towns, and finally managed to gather rare adamantite gold and gems.

Once it was completed, even in the face of the powerful divine power of the Sage form, he dared to guarantee that the other party would not be able to eat and walk around.

Looking at his left front paw, which was completely covered by extremely ornate armor, Zhang Cheng curled the corners of his mouth and responded, "Tremble? No, I want more than just trembling! I want destruction! Look, this is just the beginning, and when I finish the whole plan, the gods will usher in their twilight......"

"You seem to be hostile to the gods?" said the silver dragon Madeis, who was half-alive and half-dead, subconsciously frowned.

"Hahahaha! I just want to see what a godless world looks like. Zhang Cheng cracked his mouth and let out an unbridled laugh.

I don't know if it's the effect of divinity, he has been falling into madness more and more recently, and he has less and less time to calm down, as if he is completely out of control.

He knew very well what he was doing and the consequences of doing so, but he couldn't help but want to try it and reminisce about the intense thrill of breaking all shackles.

It seemed that divinity had sparked all the latent desires in his mind, whether it was the whispers of the Elder Gods or the painful despair from the Tears of Nesario, all of them disappeared without a trace, replaced by a long-suppressed passion.

Zhang Cheng never imagined that he would become like this one day, let alone imagine whether his soul would be able to return to its previous appearance after leaving this body......
