Divine Gift

There was once a pointless argument.

The question is: which world is stronger, the one before Soren arrived or the one he's in now? While the destructive power of nuclear annihilation is something many are 'proud of,' it's actually useless against many beings. Leaving aside powerful Deity, the mere display of a professional's advanced Psion abilities is enough to end this debate. Psion have an overwhelming ability to control ordinary people, and upon advancing to Legendary, they possess abilities similar to 'possession.'

Soren stared at the Psion before him.

What was very attractive about his current goal was the ' Telepathic Suggestion ' ability possessed by the Psion.

This ability isn't very lethal.

However, it can influence the minds of ordinary people, which can be simply understood as the most powerful form of hypnosis. If it is performed by Legendary -level Psion, then the scope of its effect will be quite wide. Psion can manipulate the minds of ordinary people and leave some suggestions in their hearts. This ability may not be very useful in other areas, but if it is used to spread faith and develop believers, then its effect will become quite astonishing.

Soren came up with this idea because some professionals had previously used the abilities of Psion.

Although this act caused the ascendant to Deity to fall into the Evil Alignment, falling into Evil was insignificant. He was originally Lawful Neutral being, and falling into Lawful Evil merely meant gaining more enemies. However, relying on the Psion's manipulation abilities, the cultivator quickly built Church of Deity from scratch, transforming it into Church Deity. This is the value of Psion; they can create their first batch of followers out of thin air.

Soren has advanced to the Demigod realm.

In a sense, he was already in a situation with no way out, and the threat of the Vampire God Child still lingered. Although he could temporarily hide in the Overseas Islands with Vivian, they could still be found eventually. To fight against the Deity, one still needs the power of the Deity. Even if Soren was confident in joining forces with Goria to deal with the Vampire God Child, with the addition of the Deity's Church behind the other side, the chances of victory were quite low.

The Church is growing very rapidly!

Soren could train batches of skilled pirates, but the Church trained higher-level and more powerful professionals.

If we don't accelerate our efforts to catch up, this gap will only widen.

Divinity has been attained.

They even have Divine Rank.

Soren is currently only lacking a Portfolio that matches his abilities and status. Once he obtains Portfolio that he can merge with, he can gradually enter the realm of True God.

Possessing Divine Power.

Develop believers.

Train pastors.

Having met these three conditions, and with the population, resources, and wealth of the Overseas Islands as a backing, Soren was 70% confident that he could withstand even the Time of Troubles.

As for Vivian's troubles, Soren, standing at the height of Deity, would naturally find them easier to resolve!

For example, how to completely erase the existence of the Demon Lord of Fear.

at this point.

Perhaps only True God could accomplish this.

Soren stared at the Psion before him; her face was ashen, and her Hit Points was almost completely depleted.

This is the Spider Queen's Trickery Domain.

Soren had witnessed such a terrifying curse before, instantly killing a Drow Matriarch who defied her will. Even within the Drow's internal power struggles, if any family angered the Spider Queen Spider Queen, she might use Trickery to kill the entire family's leadership, then send Drider to wipe out the remaining members of other families. Many families were destroyed in this way, but it mainly occurred before the Dark Maiden's demise.

Since the fall of the Dark Maiden, the Spider Queen has not carried out a bloody purge for a long time.

There's only one way to save her!

Only the power of the Deity can counter the Spider Queen's Trickery.

--"Divine Gift!"

This was the only way Soren could think of to save her.

As for the Divine Gift requirement—that is, her attitude towards Soren —that's not a problem at all. The woman before him is Legendary Psion. It would be a matter of the blink of an eye for her to hypnotize herself to a certain degree. The most crucial question is what she truly thinks: does she intend to die like this, or does she hope Soren will save her?

Take a deep breath.

A Radiance of Divinity appeared in Soren's eyes; Demigod could already wield Divinity power. Although many of these abilities didn't manifest as Feat skills, they were merely instincts that Soren had mastered.

For example, [Telepathy]!

After advancing to Demigod, one can Telepathy with any intelligent being. Soren can directly use his Divine Power to transmit his thoughts into the other person's mind.

"I can save you."

Soren embraced the Psion before him, his Divine Radiance gaze meeting the warlock's eyes. His own consciousness entered the warlock's mind as he slowly said, "However, the price is that you must become my follower. There are many things that cannot be explained now; the only promise I can give you is that you will not have a bad future."

Time is running out.

"Make your decision as soon as possible. If you drag this out too long, I'm afraid I won't be able to save you!"

Divine Gift.

This is a very powerful ability!

However, the price paid was also quite severe. For example, the Mutated Killer Whale that Soren Divine Gift could not possibly regain the lost Divinity. As the price for absorbing Divinity, the Mutated Killer Whale's will and life were almost entirely controlled by Soren. Theoretically, Soren could directly use his Divine Power to take its Hit Points.

The Deity are supreme!

Even if the Psion before her is Legendary- level professional, once she chooses to accept Soren's Divine Power, her life and death will be in Soren's hands.

No doubt about it.

The control of believers by Deity is essentially no different from the control of followers by Demon, except that Demon act more arbitrarily Evil, and cruelly, while Deity are much more restrained, and many benevolent Deity protect their believers. Divine Gift are a mark imprinted on the soul, and once formed, they are difficult to remove unless something higher than the Deity appears.

Life or death.

This choice isn't too difficult.

However, as a powerful Psion, she might rather die than be controlled by Soren in the future. If that's the case, there's nothing Soren can do but finish her off at the last moment.

After all, he can be really cold-blooded at times.

Aside from Vivian Soren, there aren't many others she really cares about; perhaps now we should add Gloria to that list.

A second feels like a day!

The Psion before him didn't have much time to consider, so when Soren received her reply, he immediately placed his palm on her forehead.

--"Divine Gift!"

A strange Divine Radiance appeared.

The Divine Power within Soren gradually transferred to the Psion before him. Under the Radiance of Divinity, her entire body was covered in a layer of eerie, gray energy. This was the Spider Queen's Trickery Domain, and also a special kind of Deity domain.

A touch of Divinity.

Two points of Divinity.

Three points of Divinity.

The Divine Rank within Soren was slowly decreasing. As more and more Divine Rank was injected, the eerie gray energy surrounding the Psion thinned, replaced by Divine Power transmitted from Soren. With each additional drop of Divine Power, Soren's connection to her grew stronger, until finally, Telepathy was established between them. This meant that the Psion had opened her mind, rapidly changing her attitude through self-hypnosis, and ultimately merging with the Divine Power transmitted by Soren.

Five points of Divine Rank!

Once half of the eerie, gray energy had been expelled, Soren decisively stopped Divine Gift.

He only has 11 points of Divine Rank left.

If this continues, he will fall from [Faint Divinity] to the bottom. Five points of Divine Rank are enough to save the Psion's life. As for what to do with the other half of the energy, that can only be considered later.

The Spider Queen was incredibly powerful.

However, it's not that there are no Deity who can fight against her. Essentially, the curse is just the effect of Negative Energy Erosion, and there will always be ways to gradually eliminate it in the future.
