Doehring Cowart Becomes a God
The Necropolis of the Gods, Thirteenth Level!
"Boss, this Necropolis of the Gods is so boring, it's utterly lifeless. ☟♣ ☹☆" Beibei complained, looking at the ocean shrouded in white mist.
Lin Feng and Beibei had been in the Necropolis of the Gods for a year. More than half a year ago, they found the entrance to the thirteenth level. Without a second thought, Lin Feng and Beibei entered the thirteenth level.
Upon entering the thirteenth floor, I indeed sensed the aura of a Midgod.
Just as this unfortunate Midgod was about to launch a sneak attack on Lin Feng and Beibei, he was cleaved in two by Lin Feng, who was prepared. Only a jade-green Water Midgod Godhead and a Space Ring remained.
Lin Feng readily accepted the Water Midgod Godhead. He tossed the Space Ring to Beibei, who then happily underwent a blood oath to claim it as her own and check its contents.
Lin Feng was surprised to find two Lowgod Godhead and some Divine Artifact in the Space Ring.
These two Lowgod Godhead are, respectively, an Earth Lowgod Godhead and a Fire Lowgod Godhead.
Thinking of Barker and Wharton, Lin Feng immediately stored the Godhead into his Space Ring. Barker was Undying Warrior, so refining Earth Element divine Godhead would be best for him. As for Wharton, Lin Feng knew that he loved the Fire Elemental Law and had no interest in any other laws or rules.
As for the few Divine Artifact in the Space Ring, Lin Feng only glanced at them and then ignored them. There wasn't even a single Midgod Divine Artifact; they were just a few Lowgod Divine Artifact artifacts of trash.
Besides the Divine Artifact and the Godhead, the ring also contains three beads with very rich Life Energy.
Lin Feng took out one and examined it carefully. He found that apart from its abundant Life Energy, the bead had nothing special about it. But then Lin Feng's eyes lit up, and he guessed that this bead might be a "Life Source Pearl".
Although Lin Feng had never seen a real Life Source Pearl before and didn't know what it looked like, since it was a bead, it was undoubtedly spherical. Considering the incredibly rich Life Energy in this bead, the answer was quite obvious.
Lin Feng stored the three beads in his Space Ring.
Although this thing is useless to me, it's a lifesaver for those below the god level. I can't use it myself, but my wife, children, and brothers can.
"Don't complain, be careful and on guard, an Exile might suddenly appear," Lin Feng said with a smile.
"Hehe, with the boss around, I don't need to worry about this," Beibei chuckled.
"You..." Lin Feng shook his head, feeling both happy and helpless about Beibei's dependence.
Lin Feng and Beibei were flying slowly over the boundless ocean when suddenly, "whoosh~"
A strange fluctuation, quite familiar to Lin Feng, arrived, and Lin Feng exclaimed in surprise, "The Laws of the World are descending?"
Before the words were finished, a moon-white phantom flew out from the Coiling Dragon Ring.
It was Doehring Cowart, who had been in seclusion for many years.
"Grandpa Doehring?" Lin Feng asked in surprise.
Since Lin Feng entered the Magical Beast Mountain Range for the second time, Doehring Cowart had been in seclusion in the Coiling Dragon Ring and had never shown his face until today when he flew out of the Coiling Dragon Ring again.
"Lin Feng!" Doehring Cowart looked at Lin Feng with satisfaction. Then, his body gradually floated up under the protection of the Laws of the World, and finally even moved three meters away from the Coiling Dragon Ring.
"Grandpa Doehring has become a god?" Lin Feng looked at Doehring Cowart, who was enveloped by the power of laws and was condensing his Godhead in mid-air, with great joy in his heart.
Beibei glared at him. "Boss, is this old man Grandpa Doehring?"
"Indeed!" Lin Feng Lin Feng couldn't hide his smile. He knew Beibei's personality and didn't care about the disrespect in Beibei words.
In no time, a yellowish-brown Lowgod Godhead was successfully formed. However, the instant the Godhead spark took shape, Doehring Cowart's illusory soul merged into the Godhead, surprisingly not choosing to split into two.
Of course, Lin Feng was only taken aback for a moment and didn't pay much attention. Grandpa Doehring had his reasons for making this choice.
After a while, a Divine Body was successfully formed. It still wore a moon-white robe, and the kind smile on its face remained unchanged. If there was any change, it was only that it was a phantom before, and now it was a physical entity.
Just then, a sound of water breaking suddenly came. A figure wielding a battle sword swiftly slashed towards Doehring Cowart's head.
Lin Feng was shocked. He flipped his hand and took out the Violet Blood Soft Sword. A series of hazy purple phantoms appeared out of thin air.
"Pfft!"
A pale blue Wind Midgod Godhead was tossed into the air, and the figure and the battle sword in his hand both fell into the water.
With a flick of his wrist, Lin Feng stored the Violet Blood Soft Sword and the Godhead into his Space Ring. He then approached Doehring Cowart and asked, "Grandpa Doehring, are you alright?"
"It's alright." Doehring Cowart was also quite frightened by what had just happened, but thankfully the crisis was over, so he laughed and said, "I didn't expect someone to attack me so soon after I became a god. If it weren't for you, I probably would have been completely annihilated."
"It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright." Lin Feng felt a lingering fear when he thought about it. Just now, Doehring Cowart suddenly became a god, and Lin Feng's attention was drawn to it, so he relaxed his vigilance on his surroundings. However, what Lin Feng did not expect was that someone would actually attack his grandfather Doehring at this moment. If Lin Feng hadn't reacted quickly, Doehring Cowart, who had just become Lowgod, would have been killed without a doubt when attacked by a Midgod.

"Hello, Grandpa Doehring." Beibei flew over from the side and bowed to Doehring Cowart.
"Hmm?" Only then did Doehring Cowart notice the boy wearing a straw hat standing to the side, and looked at Beibei with a puzzled expression. "Who are you?"
Beibei blinked twice and giggled, "Grandpa Doehring doesn't recognize me? I'm Beibei, the Shadow Mouse!"
Beibei learned about Doehring Cowart's existence from Lin Feng, and also learned that Doehring Cowart had been by Lin Feng's side long before she met her boss, but she was just too weak to see him before.
"You're Beibei?" Doehring Cowart's eyes widened in astonishment. "You've become a god too!"
At this moment, Doehring Cowart finally understood the same feelings that Desri and Tulilei had had back then—speechless.
While Doehring Cowart was surprised that Lin Feng could become a god in just a few decades, he wasn't overly astonished, given Lin Feng's talent and hard work. However, Doehring Cowart found it somewhat absurd that Beibei, the Shadow Mouse, could also become a god.
The Black Shadow Mouse is the lowest-level of the rodent-type magical beasts. Although Beibei is somewhat special, it shouldn't be this special.
Beibei tossed her little head up, her face full of pride, and said, "Of course! I'm Divine Beast!"
"Divine Beast?" Doehring Cowart swallowed hard. "A rodent-like mythical Divine Beast?"
Doehring Cowart was naturally familiar with the concept of Divine Beast, but he had never heard of a rodent-type Divine Beast in all his years of life.
"Grandpa Doehring, Beibei and Lord Beirut are the same kind of magical beast."
With Lin Feng's explanation, Doehring Cowart finally understood, but the way he looked at Beibei became increasingly different.
"By the way, where is this place? How come someone ambushed me as soon as I became a god?" Doehring Cowart asked Lin Feng, recalling the ambush earlier.
"This is the thirteenth level of the Necropolis of the Gods," Lin Feng replied.
"The Necropolis of the Gods? The thirteenth level?" Doehring Cowart's eyes widened again. "You're already Midgod?"
Doehring Cowart had always assumed that Lin Feng was Lowgod like himself, but after observing Lin Feng just now, he realized that he couldn't sense Lin Feng's aura at all. If even he, Lowgod, couldn't sense Lin Feng's aura, it was clear that Lin Feng's strength was above his own, at least that of Midgod. As for Highgod, Doehring Cowart didn't dare to even think about it.
If a Highgod completely conceals their aura, then Midgod and those below them will not be able to detect it. By the same token, if a Midgod completely conceals their aura, Lowgod and those below them will also be unable to detect it.
Of course, if someone doesn't deliberately conceal their aura, they can sense it regardless of their strength.
"Grandpa Doehring, our eldest brother is already Midgod in the Laws of Wind Elements and Laws of Earth!" Beibei exclaimed excitedly. "Even the Life Law and Laws of Fate are already at the Lowgod level."
The number of surprises Doehring Cowart experienced in that day was almost equal to the total number of surprises he had made in the previous thousands of years. He never imagined that during his decades of seclusion, Lin Feng would achieve such terrifying accomplishments.
The four systems of laws (rules) lead to godhood, while the two systems of laws lead to Midgod.
To establish the Baruch Empire.
The Radiant Church was destroyed.
Lin Feng's tremendous achievements were things that Doehring Cowart could never have imagined before.
The child who embarked on the path of magical cultivation under his tutelage decades later has become the most dazzling rising star in the Yulan. Moreover, he has far surpassed his mentor in the cultivation process.
At this moment, Doehring Cowart felt no shame at being surpassed by his disciple; only satisfaction.
The student surpasses the teacher—this is the dream of every mentor.
"Haha, good, good, Lin Feng, you are very good!" Doehring Cowart had never been so happy before. Hearing about Lin Feng's great achievements made him even happier than when he himself became a god.
"By the way, Grandpa Doehring, are you free from the constraints of the Coiling Dragon Ring now?" Lin Feng suddenly asked.
"Hmm?" Doehring Cowart sensed it for a moment, then laughed loudly again, "I can no longer feel the Coiling Dragon Ring binding me. Haha, for over five thousand years, I've been bound by the Coiling Dragon Ring for over five thousand years, and finally I'm free!"
The laughter subsided, and a look of confusion appeared in Doehring Cowart's eyes. Being bound by the Coiling Dragon Ring for over five thousand years was equivalent to being imprisoned for over five thousand years. For five thousand years, day after day, month after month, no one spoke to him; only loneliness and solitude remained.
Only recently, after Lin Feng recognized the Coiling Dragon Ring as his owner, was he able to communicate with Lin Feng alone.
Although Lin Feng could not fully comprehend Grandpa Doehring's feelings at this moment, he could completely imagine them.
