Chapter 620: Dueling God’s Favor

As a divine emissary, he could look through a believer’s memories. It really made things easy!

Not needing Lan Zao to waste time verbally explaining things, the fishman youngster learned about everything in a matter of seconds.

He instantly made a judgement: Lan Zao was in danger!

The danger was not just the powerful enemy attack, but also his “teammates”.

“How to save Lan Zao?”

The fishman youngster first thought of getting Lan Zao to leave directly. 

It meant using the Divine Domain Descent spell.

This was a feasible theory. Because Lan Zao not only a pan-believer in Charming Blue Goddess (Fishnet Goddess) but was also a pious believer in the fishman youngster.

The fishman youngster could use divine spells like Divine Power Channel, have him pray, then direct divine favor onto him, thereby allowing him to use Divine Domain Descent on them.

Through this portal divine spell, Lan Zao could return to the Charming Blue Divine Domain.

Lan Zao had experienced this method once before – when he left Flower Skirt Island, it was through Divine Domain Descent, and it instantly brought him to the Dueling Divine Domain.

“But now, it is not the opportune time to use Divine Domain Descent.” The fishman youngster understood.

On the one hand, using this divine spell on Lan Zao would expend a large amount of the fishman youngster’s divine power and divine favor.

The former was not a problem.

After the big guy incident, the fishman youngster’s divine power had already been replenished.

But too much divine favor would be consumed, currently it had only recovered to 6,000 as of now. The fishman youngster was uncertain if it was enough for a Divine Domain Descent.

On the other hand, there was many hidden dangers in choosing this.

One was that Lan Zao entering Charming Blue Divine Domain did not mean he could return to the fishman youngster’s side. It was possible he would return to the main part of Charming Blue Divine Domain.

It was where Charming Blue Goddess’ main body should be hibernating.

If Lan Zao was hastily teleported there, would it awaken Charming Blue Goddess?

“If Charming Blue Goddess wakes up, they will surely notice us. I fear that will be worse than becoming imperial fugitives!” 

The other hidden danger was the Dueling God.

If Divine Domain Descent activated on Lan Zao while he was in the Dueling Divine Domain, placing te Charming Blue Divine Domain in the Dueling Divine Domain, how would the Dueling God respond?

Fly into a rage? Then drop divine punishment?

That was possible, what was more likely was that Charming Blue Goddess would wake up!

“It would be great if I had experience in using Divine Domain Descent.”

The fishman youngster wasn’t confident.

Because he had never tried using it.

Based on his plan, next prayer he would ask for these experiences. That would be the safest way.

“It would be better if I didn’t rush to use Divine Domain Descent.”

“Furthermore, if I save Lan Zao now, it will rather undercut the perilous journey he has taken.”

The fishman youngster had a good understanding of what happened to him after looking through his memories.

“I have never heard of a Dueling God. I have looked up information on a dozen churches in the Ice Sculpture Kingdom, and I have never seen such a god or clergy.”

“This has been developed secretly.”

“By means of Ice Sculpture Kingdom’s blessed dueling atmosphere, the Dueling God Church has grown well.”

“At the peak of Tranquil Hill there are tombstones with the names of many people. Mei Lin, Teng Dong Lang…these are all gold levels!”

“Wait a moment, if Teng Dong Lang is a duelist, and Spring Boxer is his coffin bearer, then the people who attacked the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps at Snow Bird Harbor was the Dueling Church and the other duelists?”

The fishman youngster didn’t know that Zong Ge had assassinated the gold levels Ax Gang Leader, Jia Bing, and Lin enroute to the capital.

If he knew this information, he would be more inclined towards this hypothesis.

The fishman youngster’s intuition told him that Lan Zao would gain more if he remained here.

“Deceptive Disguise is very reliable and can effectively help Lan Zao.”

The fishman youngster wouldn’t have Lan Zao blindly take risks; he wanted certainty. 

“Besides, with me, it won’t just be a simple Deceptive Disguise spell.”

“I can even help Lan Zao gain the Dueling God’s favor!”

The fishman youngster had practiced blasphemous sacrifice a lot.

After thinking about it, the fishman youngster began to act.

First was the classic spell combination – Deceptive Disguise and the Anti-investigation and Prophecy spell, followed by Divine Power Channel, empowering Lan Zao.

Then it was the divine spell [Believer Conversion].

With this gateway divine spell, Lan Zao’s belief in other gods would be converted into belief in the Dueling God.

Of course, this was merely a disguise.

The power of his conviction would still go to those other gods.

In short, this series of divine spells were conveyed to him one after the other.

Lan Zao quickly became a “pious level” Dueling God believer.

Spring Boxer did say that and even used the threat of death on Lan Zao. Therefore, the fishman youngster understood that being at least a pious level believer met standards.

“Lord Commander, what is this?” Lan Zao was quite amazed.

He knew about Deceptive Disguise, after all he had been boosted by it before.

But he didn’t know the other divine spells that came afterwards, and it dazzled his eyes.

“Now is not the time to explain, what is coming next is important.” The fishman youngster replied, “Do what I say!”

“Understood, Lord Commander.” Lan Zao’s loyalty to the young man was clearly visible, he had not a shred of hesitation.

Thus, a moment later, Lan Zao prayed in his mind.

“Grand God, supreme Dueling God.”

“You are an endless target of reverence; You are the heavenly law I pursue throughout my life.”

“Now, I am trapped in ice, unable to free myself.”

“This endless cold shackles me, bringing me despair and misery.”

“Only Your divine finger can save me from this crisis.”

“Ah, Dueling God, please listen to my prayer.”

“Your glory and mercy brings me incomparable marvel.”

“I wish for Your almighty favor to descend upon me, to save us pious believers.”

“We forever venerate Your supreme authority and offer our humble spirits and devotion in prayer.”

“In Your care and benevolence, we seek salvation. Only through You, our eternal and only Lord God.”

After a few seconds, a growing beam of light fell from the sky and covered the frozen Lan Zao.

Ice Breaker was still causing havoc with its snow light, but the beam of divine power simply penetrated the snow light and instantly dispelled the ice around Lan Zao.

Soon after, that light spread and turned into a vast curtain of light that spread to other people.

This included Bing Xiao, Xiong Ju, and the others, they had met the same end as Lan Zao, but at this very moment, they had been saved!

“This is my God’s divine blessing!” Gu Dong took in this scene as he fled on the precipice of the snow light.

Not just him, but also Mei Lin flying in the air. The navy rear admiral stared in Lan Zao’s direction, “The light spread from that fishman’s body, and formed a divine power light curtain. Who is he?”

In the Deep Sea Monster Fish, the fishman youngster coughed and relinquished his worries.

“Excellent, my luck’s pretty good.”

“After that prayer, Lan Zao has obtained the Dueling God’s divine blessing.”

The fishman youngster’s conjecture wasn’t wrong. If Lan Zao was in the outside world, the possibility would be unlikely. But he was in a divine domain, and like the fishman youngster praying, he could receive an immediate response from a god.

Not just that, the fishman youngster had also covertly given Lan Zao many divine spells. These divine spells played an extremely important function during blasphemous prayers!

If that prayer didn’t call forth the Dueling God’s divine blessing, the fishman youngster planned to take a risk and use Charming Blue divine power for deception.

It also had to be disguised as Lan Zao’s own strength.

Otherwise, disguising it as the Dueling God’s own divine power would be an enormous provocation that would bring the Dueling God’s ire to its peak!

“If that happens, then there would be two gold level witnesses.”

“The Bayonet Gang remnants will find out after this that they were saved because of Lan Zao. Lan Zao’s pious level belief will help him establish himself and his dangerous situation will be greatly alleviated.”

Honey Snow Tower.

“That is…divine blessing!” Shuang Lian looked as gloomy as water.

Because the divine power light curtain not only aided the Bayonet Gang but also mended Tranquil Hill.

Tranquil Hill had been split apart massively by Ice Breaker, but as of this moment, the light curtain was quickly mending that mountainous crack.

At the same time, the divine power light curtain was also suppressing Ice Breaker’s beam, reducing it once again.

“Stop Ice Breaker!” Shuang Lain decisively yelled when she saw this.

The cast only lasted 8 seconds, yet over 75% of Honey Snow Tower’s magic power reservoir had been expended.

The tower spirit in charge of maintaining the magic model had already crashed and did not respond.

Seeing Honey Snow Tower’s declining aura, Mei Lin and Gu Dong immediately grabbed ahold of this opportunity, quickly leaving Tranquil Hill and charging in.

Shuang Lian was crystal clear about the consequences of discharging Ice Breaker.

She remained calm in the face of death, and she replaced the tower spirit to control the magician tower in combat.

Bu Quan was energetically collating the data and studying it.

The King’s Crowbar once again changed directions, no longer affecting the Dueling Divine Domain, but rather the magician tower.

Mei Lin’s and Gu Dong’s many attacks were shifted away, then were counterattacked.

This made the two gold levels quite frustrated.

The legend level artifact gave Shuang Lian a nearly invincible position.

Magic scroll – Spatial Anchor.

Mei Lin couldn’t use Spatial Anchor, but she had a spell scroll.

Spatial Anchor was not used on Honey Snow Tower, but rather the spatial crack.

Ice Breaker’s power was very formidable, and although Tranquil Hill was mended by the Dueling God’s light, halfway between it and Honey Snow Tower, there was still a massive spatial crack.

Mei Lin couldn’t repair this point in space and found that she was unable to attack Honey Snow Tower at the moment, so she changed her target. First she would use Spatial Anchor to solidify space to prevent other outsiders from getting into the divine domain.

At the same time, it was also to prevent Shuang Lian from transmitting a distress call through the spatial crack.

“Humph!” Shuang Lian didn’t stop it.

On the one hand, she didn’t have surplus military strength. On the other hand, she had more hope in the future.

“Although Ice Breaker was exposed and didn’t achieve anything, I still gathered a tremendous amount of data.”

“With this data and with the help of the Old King’s Crowbar, I am sure to shift even more of the divine domain’s space!”

“The future is mine!”
