Legendary Degree

"False Deity!!!..."

A distant roar from the Holy Spirit Cleric echoed, followed by a violent explosion. The opponent even seemed intent on disregarding the City of Wealth, intending to annihilate the Vampire God Child before them. Becoming a god is actually an act easily met with resistance, especially if the god's reputation hasn't yet spread throughout the Multiverse. The Legendary Degree Soren acquired are one of the core elements of becoming a god; the higher the Legendary Degree, the less backlash one will suffer after becoming a god, because one's fame has already spread throughout the world.

Therefore, other people will feel much less resentful when you are suddenly deified!

If your name is known even to the Deity and deeply etched in the memory of the Abyss Hell, then when you decide to be deified, others will find it perfectly natural.

yes.

I have heard this name more than once. This name has gained such prestige. This name has spread all over the world. He has defeated so many enemies. He has traveled to so many places. The mortal world has almost reached its peak for him!

So, if such a person isn't deified, what else can he do?

Legendary Degree has it that the degree of your divine recognition could directly help you become True God, because your existence is already known to too many people. The moment you decide to be deified, those who revere you will provide you with power, and those who love you will also provide you with power. When they recall your name and your existence, the first wave of Power of Faith will emerge. Perhaps it's not pure enough, but the power of belief is present. Those who fear you will tremble at the sound of your name when you are deified, and those who love you will cheer at the sound of your name!

This is a force.

It is a power comparable to that of fanatics, though it only takes effect at the moment of deification.

Unfortunately, Legendary Degree isn't easy to obtain. Soren currently only has 10 Legendary Degree points. Following the normal process, you need at least 200 Legendary Degree points to truly achieve godhood. Only when your name resounds Abyss Hell, spreads throughout the Underdark, and is even remembered by the Gods, can you be considered to have truly reached the standard for godhood.

Whether it's a bad reputation or a good one!

You need to at least let the world know before you're qualified to be deified.

The Vampire God Child is undoubtedly a opportunist. He gathers power by spreading fear and then uses the Divinity and Divine Power of the Demon Lord of Fear to maintain his faith. Therefore, he can only be considered a False Deity, probably reaching the level of Avatar at most. Soren cannot yet determine if his opponent has any hidden tricks up his sleeve, but even based on the current situation, his days ahead will likely be very difficult. This is because his enemies have increased dramatically after his ascension to godhood. Any Deity who ascends to godhood without a powerful backer or strong support will face a period of extremely fierce battles.

Even the Goddess of Agriculture, despite having the Greater Divinity of the Mother of the Earth and the Lord of Radiance —two of the strongest Deity in the Multiverse —still faced challenges from Deity vying for her divine Portfolio related to agriculture, plants, and nature. This illustrates the difficulty of achieving godhood and the immense challenges one must face afterward. New Deity are extremely fragile, but killing New Deity New Deity potentially grant one their Portfolio.

If the Vampire God Child is killed, the core Portfolio of the [God of Vampires] may be inherited by someone else, but certain conditions must be met.

At the same time, the [Fear] domain can be enhanced into one's own domain by almost any Deity.

If a Deity does not possess Fear Domain, they can acquire the Fear Divinity, using it as a stepping stone to further wield the Portfolio of fear. If they already possess Fear Domain, they can use it to enhance their power and even extend it into other domains of fear. Even benevolent Deity can rely on their Fear Domain and the Fear Divinity to transform it into a part of courage, such as [fearlessness] and [conquering fear]. However, the transformation of domains takes a relatively long time.

The power of the Deity needs a springboard, and there are many extended areas that can be utilized, so the competition for Portfolio is fierce!

Soren headed away from the City of Wealth; he had to avoid this battle of Avatar caliber.

The Holy Spirit Cleric is essentially a weakened version of the Avatar Form. The Vampire God Child, after being deified, also achieved a standard Avatar Form, Silver Hand is a High-tier Legendary. It's best for a mere nobody like him to avoid involvement in battles of this level. The most important thing now is Vivian. Although her breathing is steady, Vivian hasn't woken up, which is definitely not a solution. If she truly cannot control overwhelming divine Divine Power, then Soren must help her strengthen her Divinity or fuse a Divine Rank Shard with her.

The Fear Divinity must never be absorbed!

Because the interference of the Demon Lord of Fear on the Godsbane was too powerful, although the Vampire God Child seemed to have defeated the Demon Lord of Fear, he was probably also greatly affected deep down.

A row of documents appeared:

"God-Conferring Ceremony (God of Vampires) [Legendary Combat]: In late October of the Crescent Era 1675, in the City of Wealth, the Vampire God Child Reinhard plots to become a god, spreading fear and Slaughter throughout the city. The Silver Hand attempts to stop him but fails, and the celestial priests of the Goddess of Wealth join the battle. In this Legendary event with far-reaching consequences, you Change Shape the Slayer and slay another Fear God Child. News of the appearance of the Child of Slaughter will gradually spread, and many beings will tremble at this name. A special group of people also makes your existence known far and wide. [Legendary Degree +6]"

This is the most Legendary Degree Soren has ever achieved.

Even he himself was somewhat surprised by this number, because even if he killed a pure-blooded White Dragon, he might not necessarily get 6 points of Legendary Degree. In the Battle of White Horse City, he only got 1 point of Legendary Degree. In the Hunt Ritual, he disrupted the hunter's Sacrificial Ritual and also killed a Fear God Child, but he only got 3 points of Legendary Degree. But now he has obtained twice the Legendary Degree of the Hunt Ritual, a reputation that some kingdom nobles may not even have.

Soren carried Vivian further and further away.

Although his strength had been greatly reduced, he wasn't too worried, because at worst he Change Shape the Slayer again.

His primary concern right now is Vivian. Going to find Goria is clearly impossible, as they've already been drawn into the Legendary Combat. The Vampire God Child has become False Deity, his power greatly increased, and he's highly likely to attract a large number of Vampire followers. At that time, his power will be unprecedented, and the other Fear God Child will become extremely dangerous. Even if many Church suppress him, there will be differences in distance, time, and location, as well as the fact that other Gods are asleep; it's impossible to eliminate a False Deity in a short time. If he can hold out until the Time of Troubles arrives, even fewer people will have time to deal with a God of Vampires.

Soren is searching for a path to the future.

In fact, he already had one of his plans, but it wasn't until he was able to Change Shape Slayer that he had the possibility of carrying it out.

He plans to take Vivian overseas!

Soren originally planned to advance all the way to Legendary and then wait for the opportunity of the Avatar's descent, but now the continent is becoming increasingly unsafe.

Their enemies are also increasing.

He planned to take Vivian overseas, partly to avoid the power of the Vampire God Child, and partly because there were many important opportunities overseas. Because the population overseas was smaller, the geographical environment was unique, wild beasts and poisonous insects roamed everywhere, and the entire civilization was relatively barbaric, so many weaker Deity and False Deity were active there, and some could not even be considered Deity at all, but were merely monsters close to Demigod.

Of course, the term "spirit" is Soren's personal opinion; they are primarily referred to as "Spirits."

A product of Totem worship.

There are many scattered primitive tribes overseas, many of whom rely on Totem worship. Many Demigod Spirits reside within these tribes, though they are far from being Deity, possessing power levels above Legendary. This place was only gradually discovered after the Time of Troubles, but Soren undoubtedly has the ability to challenge it now.

Many of these [Spirits] are below Demigod; they possess Divinity but lack Divine Rank and Divine Power.

Among them are some powerful False Deity, who may only have tens of thousands of followers, but have multiplied and passed down for thousands of years. Many creatures that were originally Spirits have gradually developed a trace of Divinity because of Totem worship for too long. That place is behind the Tropical Rainforest, near the Amazon Warrior. Because the Lord of Storms doesn't care about these weak False Deity, no Church attacks them.

The Lord of Storms is too powerful!

Even if these False Deity developed for ten thousand years, they might not be qualified to even dangle in front of him.

Those places are incredibly wild and primitive, occasionally Travel by Legendary Wizard, but rarely by other professions. This is because Divinity is an extremely powerful force, comparable to nuclear fuel; adding it to a car engine like gasoline is utterly useless. Soren and Vivian can convert Divinity, but it's incredibly difficult for other Legendary Professional, even Godsbane, to succeed, and even then, it takes a very long time. Without reaching a certain level of strength, one simply cannot comprehend what Divinity is; even Legendary Wizard need to study it for a long time. And the research target must be relatively powerful; otherwise, the Divinity is too weak to be extracted!

According to records.

Legendary Wizard have stripped away and decomposed the Divinity from the Godsbane of Slaughter, and even once took away the Godsbane of Slaughter's power.

As for another reason why Soren planned to go overseas.

There are probably very few top-tier priests on the mainland willing to dispel the Epic Spell [Energy Drain] for him, and they might even attack him. However, the overseas territories belong to many Evil Alignment of Deity, and the Legendary priests who serve them only care about money. For example, the Alignment of the Lord of Storms is a typical example of Chaotic Evil.

These places have unique rules, and they are very Inclusiveness of people from the Evil Alignment!

As long as you can afford it, they don't care whether you're kind or Evil.

(P. S.: The overall Alignment on the mainland Lawful Neutral, while the overall Alignment Overseas Regions leans towards Chaotic Neutral.) (To be continued~^~)
