"I bless you, may light always be with you..."

Looking at the sunlight that actively gathered around Venom after hearing those words, Su Yao was both surprised and taken aback.

He only said one sentence, yet it caused this effect? Moreover, the process was completely out of his control; the sunlight and photons actively converged around Venom, becoming a phenomenon.

It's like Venom is naturally able to attract sunlight, which seems a bit outrageous!

"I just don't know how long this will last..."

Su Yao had a feeling that a level three Divine Word shouldn't be that perfect.

Aside from the feeling that the sunlight coming in was a bit too little and didn't reach the ideal level, the duration might be...

Just as he was thinking this, the amount of sunlight gathering around Venom began to slowly decrease.

After a while, this phenomenon of sunlight converging disappeared.

Seeing this, Venom was somewhat bewildered and asked, "Su, what did you do to me? Were you controlling the sunlight just now?"

He knew that Su had the ability to control sunlight, and the scene before him looked very much like Su controlling the sunlight.

However, he subconsciously felt that things might not be like that, especially since the effect of sunlight gathering gradually weakened, which further reinforced his suspicions.

Could it be...?

Venom couldn't help but recall a sentence Su had just said.

Thinking of this, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

At this moment, Su Yao ignored Venom's shock and became thoughtful.

Clearly, if the Divine Word is further enhanced, the duration of the phenomenon that just occurred will likely increase. Su Yao even speculated that at level five, the effect would become permanent! It would become a permanent blessing, or perhaps a curse...

Thinking of the curse, Su Yao pondered for a moment, but after glancing at the Venom, he had no intention of trying it.

Although he hadn't tried it, he pretty much knew the effect.

"I just don't know what the case is with granting power?"

Thinking of this, Su Yao couldn't help but think of a character from DC Comics, Shazam.

The opponent possesses the power of six gods: the wisdom of Solomon, the strength of Hercules, the endurance of Atlas, the power of Zeus to control lightning, the courage of Achilles, and the speed of Hermes.

Blessed by the Greece gods, he was practically a bootleg version of Superman.

His archenemy Aton, Black Adam, possesses the power blessed by the Egypt gods: the stamina of Shu, the agility of Horus, the strength of Amun, the wisdom of Amon, the power of Thoth, and the courage of Mahan.

In short, it's another bootleg Superman...

"If I were to bestow a blessing, it would probably have a similar effect, right?"

Curiosity appeared in Su Yao's eyes.

What kind of blessing can be bestowed? The ability to control light, endurance, speed, or any power that can be possessed, and then bestowed upon the one who bestows the blessing? Since there is no test subject, this matter can only be considered a mystery to him. As for testing it with Venom, he thought better of it.

Su Yao believed that this blessing was not arbitrary and might consume something.

It's very likely that a connection will be established with the one who bestows the blessing; when the other uses their power, it's actually their power that's being consumed...

After all, power cannot be created out of nothing.

After testing the effects of the Divine Word, Su Yao hesitated, looking at the Divine Word which was already at level three. He didn't know whether to continue upgrading it or focus on unlocking new abilities first.

After thinking for a moment, he focused his attention on the 17,000 Energy Points.

In any case, the effects of the Divine Word have already been initially demonstrated. As long as he continues to speak them, they will automatically improve, so he doesn't need to worry about it at all.

He was more curious about Balder's new abilities than about the Divine Word that had already been revealed.

(Unlock Progress 60%)

After glancing at the Unlock Progress, Su Yao couldn't help but wonder, "65% or 70% to awaken a new ability?"

What happens when it's 100%?

"I wonder how much the remaining 17,000+ Energy Points will increase the Unlock Progress..."

Driven by curiosity, he had an idea and began to invest Energy Points into Balder's Unlock Progress.

62%...

65%...

68%...

70%...

[Energy Points: 3005]

When there were only a little over 3,000 Energy Points left, the Unlock Progress had reached 70%.

At the same time, Su Yao's heart skipped a beat as a notification sound rang out.

[Ability: Divinity (Unlocked)]

[Ability: Divinity (0/100) Level 1]

"Divinity?"

Su Yao was slightly taken aback, his face showing both surprise and confusion.

He had some understanding of Divinity, but he wasn't clear on its specific uses.

All he knew was that this thing, like authority, had a special meaning to God.

Just as he was thinking this, he immediately sensed a change.

A mysterious power began to emerge within him...

The body, blood, Light Energy, and spirit are all imbued with this power.

With keen senses, Su Yao felt that his own power had increased.

"This feeling is somewhat similar to the Light Divine Power..."

"Another kind of amplifying ability?"

Su Yao's eyes showed surprise, but at the same time he was in a very good mood.

This kind of all-around amplification ability is his favorite, so it's definitely worth it.

Just as he was thinking this, believing it to be nothing more than that, at this moment, possessing a Divinity Soul Stone and spirit, he suddenly sensed a special energy.

That energy was very special; at this moment, it was like swallows returning to their nests, gathering around him.

Before he could even wonder what it was, he heard some whispers, as if someone was speaking devoutly and respectfully.

"Gods, please bless me..."

"Your Highness God of Light Balder, please grant me the chance to see the light again..."

Hearing these whispers, Su Yao was quite surprised.

He was somewhat familiar with this situation; it was roughly the same feeling when Kaecilius contacted him before, though there were some differences.

In an instant, he guessed what was going on, and he was pretty much right about those strange, special energies.

"Are these prayers from believers?"

"Is this special energy the Faith Power?"

Su Yao was quite surprised.

Even in modern times, there are still people who believe in Norse gods? You should know that in Northern Europe, the mainstream religion now is Christianity, and very few people believe in the Norse Gods anymore.

Su Yao had originally thought that religion in Scandinavia was almost extinct, but he never expected...

After thinking about it, he understood what was going on.

Although there is less faith in the gods of Asgard, with such a large population, there will always be some who have faith, even if it is only a shallow one, which may very well give rise to the so-called Faith Power.

It is estimated that the Faith Power surrounding him at this moment comes from this.
