Divine Sparks could expand the maximum area of a god's Divine Domain.
But their greater purpose was to raise the limit of a god's rank.
Most gods had limited talent, and might remain Demi-Gods for their entire lives.
But as long as they could devour another god's Divine Spark, breaking through to Lesser God, or even Middle God, would be within reach.
Of course, the same applied to High Gods.
Some Great Gods and True Gods had exhausted their potential and could no longer advance to a higher rank.
At that point, they often chose to hunt other gods and seize their Divine Sparks.
So Divine Sparks were undoubtedly incredibly valuable to gods.
After devouring Ma Baoguo's Divine Spark, Ye Yu could clearly feel his own had grown a little stronger.
"Ding! Hunyuan God Ma Baoguo has died. The system has automatically collected his soul and converted it into an NPC template!"
The electronic voice rang out once more.
Ye Yu paused in surprise.
The system could even collect a god's soul?
And convert it into an NPC template?
Didn't that mean he could summon an NPC modeled after Ma Baoguo?
Thinking this, Ye Yu went straight into the system.
He quickly opened the NPC Template interface.
Sure enough, an NPC template with an appearance identical to Ma Baoguo's appeared before him.
"Interesting!"
Looking at Ma Baoguo's template, Ye Yu wore an intrigued expression.
He thought it over, then made a decision.
"Right now, there's far too little content for players to enjoy in Immortal Path."
"Maybe I can open a dungeon!"
"I'll make Ma Baoguo the dungeon boss!"
With that thought, he exited the NPC Template interface and opened the Dungeon Editor.
"Creating a dungeon requires at least ten thousand Divine Power?"
"I wonder how many Contribution points I got for taking out Ma Baoguo!"
He switched back to the Character Interface and glanced at the Contribution points field.
A long string of numbers appeared before his eyes.
325800!
"Ma Baoguo was worth that much?"
Ye Yu couldn't help but gasp when he saw the number.
325,800 Contribution points converted to 32,580 Divine Power!
This time, he'd not only recovered all the Divine Power he'd spent earlier, but gained another 30,000 on top of it!
What a haul!
"Just one Ma Baoguo was worth this much!"
"I wonder how much I'd get for hunting Xiao Gui?"
The more Ye Yu looked, the happier he became. It seemed the hunting route really was a license to print money.
His Contribution points were piling up at an incredible rate!
Of course, some of those Contribution points would have to go to the players.
He couldn't let them go without getting so much as a taste, could he?
Even so, this haul had already taken Ye Yu by surprise.
"System, exchange twenty thousand Divine Power!"
After a brief pause, Ye Yu spoke to the system.
"Ding! Divine Power exchange successful. Please check your balance!"
After the electronic voice sounded, Ye Yu glanced at his Contribution points and Divine Power again.
His Contribution points had gone down by 200,000!
At the same time, his Divine Power had increased by 20,000!
With Divine Power in hand, Ye Yu immediately started editing the dungeon!
"Let's call the first dungeon Assassinate Ma Baoguo!"
"Set the map as the Demon Palace!"
"The Scorpion Lions will be the mobs, and Ma Baoguo will be the boss!"
"As for rewards, besides Contribution points, add equipment, Cultivation Methods, and so on!"
"That should do it. The system can fill in the rest."
Ye Yu quickly sketched out the basic framework for the Assassinate Ma Baoguo dungeon.
As for the specifics, he couldn't be bothered. He'd leave those to the system.
The system could do anything. The dungeon it created would definitely be more complete than anything he could come up with.
He only had to decide on the broad direction and framework.
Arbor God Temple.
The Divine Envoy, Xiao Gui, and the others stared unblinkingly at the Divine War Stage.
Because the broadcast had been blocked, they couldn't see any of the actual battle!
But they could still make a few guesses from the fluctuations in the Divine Power coming from the stage.
"Ma Baoguo's Divine Power is fluctuating violently!"
"I felt it too. What's going on?"
"Did something unexpected happen?"
"Impossible. Ye Yu's awakening stats were so lousy. There's no way he can beat Ma Baoguo, is there?"
The spectators, who'd been watching for fun, erupted in commotion when they felt Ma Baoguo's Divine Power fluctuate violently.
They couldn't imagine what had happened to make his Divine Power fluctuate so wildly!
"Stop making wild guesses!"
"Ma Baoguo is borrowing Great God Arbor's divine skill!"
"Just watch. The Divine War will be over in five minutes, and Ye Yu will... will lose!"
Hearing the people around him speculate, the Divine Envoy scoffed and explained.
Still, he had his reservations and didn't say that Ye Yu would die!
Even though everyone already knew it was a foregone conclusion.
The Divine Envoy's words made everyone look enlightened.
Only Xiao Gui clenched his fists so tightly they trembled!
"Damn Ma Baoguo. He stole my prey. He deserves to die!"
Five minutes passed in the blink of an eye!
Ma Baoguo's Divine Power had been fluctuating constantly, but in a single instant, it vanished as if someone had wiped it away!
"What's going on?"
The Divine Envoy shot to his feet, a look of uncertainty on his face.
He could no longer sense Ma Baoguo's Divine Power!
When this happened, there was only one possibility: the god had fallen!
But how could that be?
How could Ma Baoguo lose to Ye Yu?
And be killed?
Impossible!
The Divine Envoy couldn't believe it!
The spectators around him were just as shocked and confused.
They couldn't make sense of what had happened either!
Just then, the force of the rules enveloping the Divine War Stage receded like the tide!
The entire stage came into view!
The spot where Ye Yu had stood was empty!
But everyone could clearly see Ma Baoguo's body where he'd been standing!
"Oh no!"
The Divine Envoy's face changed dramatically at the sight!
But before he could do anything,
Ma Baoguo's body on the Divine War Stage began to fade into nothingness before everyone's eyes!
For one brief moment, the entire crowd fell silent!
Everyone was stunned!
Ma Baoguo had actually died?
A few seconds later, cries of shock rang out one after another!
"Oh my god, M-Ma Baoguo suffered a Divine Fall? He lost to Ye Yu?"
"Am I dreaming? Ye Yu won?"
"How is that possible? Ma Baoguo's Divine Domain covered 800 square kilometers, while Ye Yu's was only one square kilometer. The gap between them was enormous. How could this be the outcome?"
"This is an illusion. I don't believe it. It can't be real!"
No one could accept what had happened!
It wasn't that they had a close relationship with Ma Baoguo. The result of the Divine War had simply been far beyond anything they'd expected!
They were all completely stunned!
