Divine Court Four Divisions

With You in Arms.

As long as Qi Yuan and Little Bride were not too far apart, even if they were not together and could not see each other, Qi Yuan could use this major skill to merge with her.

When using this skill, Qi Yuan could enjoy Little Bride's authority.

Rending Clothes.

Qi Yuan's attacks always had armor-piercing properties against clothes and armor.

These two skills were quite good.

After all, Qi Yuan had discovered that if he leveled normally to Level 90, he could still obtain two more skills.

That was equivalent to getting two skills for free.

Little Bride left his body. For some reason, Qi Yuan felt that some unseen connection had formed between him and this Clothing Monster.

He looked at Little Bride, looking at her seriously.

He wanted to see her eyes, but he could not.

"Are you sure you don't want a divorce?" Qi Yuan said. "Once I finish farming this map, perhaps I'll leave this place."

In the past, there had been love stories like Xu Xian and the Snake Demon, Dong Yong and the Seventh Fairy Maiden, and the Long Armed Ape Monkey with the Sparrow Fairy, with whom he had no ordinary feelings.

But he had never seen a person fall in love with an NPC.

Much less an NPC that was clothing.

Upon hearing Qi Yuan's words, Little Bride's body trembled. A wooden plaque fell down, bearing a drawing of a man and the words "husband."

Qi Yuan picked up the plaque and pondered for a while. "Then you're only my CP in this game. Right now, we're still in the divorce cooling-off period."

Once he cleared the game, it would be over.

Another wooden plaque slipped from Little Bride's sleeve.

Stick Together.

If the little fellow had eyes, she would surely be looking at Qi Yuan expectantly.

"No sticking together!"

What was the point of sticking together?

Merging was much better.

Qi Yuan looked at Little Bride and slowly said, "Let's merge."

Seeing that Little Bride did not refuse, Qi Yuan used With You in Arms.

With You in Arms was different from Little Bride voluntarily merging with him.

He wanted to see the difference between the two.

In an instant, Little Bride was imprinted upon his chest once more.

A suit of blood-red armor emerged around Qi Yuan's body again.

Unlike the armor formed when Little Bride voluntarily possessed him, this suit was covered in blood-red barbs. It looked far more dangerous and chilling, and its crimson was more vivid rather than the previous dark red.

If the armor from Little Bride's voluntary possession emphasized defense and protection, then the fusion created by Qi Yuan's With You in Arms emphasized offense.

The five-level boost still remained.

Such a boost was terrifying beyond measure.

"If I wore this armor and charged into the Clothing Monsters, aside from that Lord of the Fallen Forbidden Area, who could stop me?"

Qi Yuan felt that his game-clearing progress had accelerated a little more.

"What about the shared authority?"

Qi Yuan sensed it.

"Huh? One-third control of the Attire Forbidden Area?"

Qi Yuan froze. He had not expected that.

However, Little Bride's control was obviously different from Qi Yuan's previous control over the Xuanyuan Forbidden Area.

In game terms, Little Bride's was soft control, while Qi Yuan's was strong control—hard control.

He lowered his head, his gaze passing through the red armor to see Little Bride imprinted on his chest.

"Looks like she's also one of the Attire Forbidden Area's major bosses.

Since I can share it, then there's no need to kill her?"

He pondered something.

To obtain the Fragment of Heavenly Dao and successfully achieve Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment.

The Attire Forbidden Area had to be cleared, and this game probably had to be cleared as well.

Although Qi Yuan sometimes seemed especially unreliable, he would not make mistakes at critical moments.

"Authority."

Qi Yuan narrowed his eyes.

His figure flashed.

This time, he appeared at the graveyard from before.

At ten meters tall, he was like a giant here.

He stared at one grave, then shrank back to normal human size.

The grave mound was very ordinary. There was even a hole in it, through which white centipedes could be seen crawling.

Qi Yuan directly crawled into that hole.

Having obtained Little Bride's shared authority, Qi Yuan knew that there was an Earth Palace beneath that grave mound.

Within the Earth Palace were buried the ancient emperors of every generation of the Attire Forbidden Area.

The hole was pitch-black, but that was nothing to Qi Yuan.

He carried the Great Treasure Sword as red metal flowed over it, covering his Great Treasure Sword as well.

The Earth Palace, originally filled with danger, perhaps due to Little Bride's possession, flung its doors wide open to Qi Yuan.

Walking through the Earth Palace, Qi Yuan looked at the surrounding structures in confusion. "The fact that they could build an Earth Palace like this shows that the Clothing Monsters possess intelligence.

Why, then, are all the Clothing Monsters I've seen... bloodthirsty by nature, crazed, mindless Clothing Monsters?"

In the game, even if Qi Yuan did not draw the aggro of NPC mobs, those mobs would still actively attack him.

It was as though those mobs wanted to tear every living creature in the world to shreds.

And Little Bride was different from the NPCs Qi Yuan had seen.

He suddenly recalled the information his eyes had shown him when he looked at the Ugly Clothing Monster Emperor.

"Lord of the Fallen Forbidden Area?"

"Could it be that Little Bride hasn't fallen?"

Qi Yuan felt that he had seemingly discovered the truth of the matter.

He entered the depths of the Earth Palace, then suddenly... Qi Yuan froze.

"Did I just enter the Qin Emperor Mausoleum?"

As far as the eye could see, there were suits upon suits of black armor.

Some held long spears, while others held halberds.

They stood in the burial pit like an organized army, utterly motionless. Yet Qi Yuan could still feel the grim, chilling aura of a military formation.

Looking out, they stretched densely in every direction, numbering in the thousands upon thousands.

At this moment, they were like terracotta warriors.

But Qi Yuan had a feeling that once awakened, they would become the strongest army in this world, sweeping through all before them without resistance.

Qi Yuan's gaze was drawn to a stone stele.

The stele was carved with densely packed writing.

"Of the Divine Court Four Divisions, the Attire Division is administered by the Bride Attire Imperial Daughter, Wife of the Heavenly God.

Gather the battle attire of the world, uphold the Divine Court's magnificent splendor; the myriad demons rage in terror, and all under heaven may be clothed!"

He read it carefully.

This stone stele recorded many things, including an incomparably glorious age.

In those days, the Heavenly God established the Divine Court and commanded the Four Divisions. His might shook the world, and peace reigned across the four seas.

The Attire Division was the most prominent among the Four Divisions, specializing in slaughter and warfare.

The Attire Division Imperial Guards had once flattened the Ten Thousand Great Mountains and the boundless plains, driving the Demon Race into the Ice and Snow Wasteland.

The one administering the Attire Division, the Bride Attire Imperial Daughter, was also the Heavenly God's wife.

Qi Yuan thought of Little Bride.

Could Little Bride be connected to this Bride Attire Goddess?

He continued reading.

The Divine Court presided over the four seas and eight wildernesses, and the world remained at peace for hundreds of years.

The Divine Court that commanded the Four Divisions had already become invincible beneath heaven.

But when one was invincible beneath heaven, enemies came from above the heavens.

One day, Enemies from Beyond the Territory suddenly invaded the Moon Gazing Continent.

The lord of the Divine Court, that powerful Heavenly God, led his forces to meet them.

In the end, he never returned.

The Four Divisions gradually declined because of this as well.

And the final contingent of Attire Division Imperial Guards was buried in the Earth Palace, waiting for the day they would awaken to fight for the Heavenly God and fight for the world.

"So this is the setting of the game?"

"The Four Great Forbidden Areas should be the Divine Court's four divisions."

"The biggest boss should be those Enemies from Beyond the Territory."

"My mission objective is to defeat the Enemies from Beyond the Territory, protect the world, and then have Heavenly Dao reward me?"

"Sure enough, once I put on the Emperor Armor, I have to become a great hero who protects the world!"

As someone who was not an experienced gamer, this was Qi Yuan's imagined conclusion.

"I thought Jin Li's task of guarding a country was difficult. Looks like mine is the true hell difficulty!"

According to the records, the Divine Court ruled the world from on high, and humanity had nearly a hundred nations.

"For Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment, I have to give it everything!"

"Now, I'm a man with Little Bride!"

Five levels directly!

That was far too powerful!

Somewhere on the Moon Gazing Continent, murmurs arose, as though people were whispering in secret.
