Closest to the Gods (cont.)

"Hmph, how does it feel to reach the summit?"

Alfia teased.

"I don't feel anything."

Ming Ge speaks the truth.

For him now, power doesn't mean much.

Furthermore, rights come with responsibilities, meaning he'll have many more things to consider from now on.

Fortunately, his mental strength is also constantly growing, and coupled with his ability to split his thoughts, there is basically nothing that can stump him.

"Don't you feel anything...? Indeed, even without doing this, you are destined to be the King of Orario."

Alfia didn't refute, but nodded and said, "Now it's you who bears the future of all humanity on your shoulders. Just thinking about it makes me feel a heavy weight on my shoulders."

Is it heavy?

Ming Ge shook her head.

Do what you are capable of; for Ming Ge, these are all within her capabilities.

As mentioned before, family comes first for Ming Ge.

If Ming Ge didn't have this ability, she naturally wouldn't have done it. But now Ming Ge has the ability, and she does it very easily.

Ming Ge was very lucky; she was picked up by a beautiful white-haired girl after transmigrating and didn't suffer the hardships of this era. But that doesn't mean she was unaware of the suffering of this era.

I didn't like it, so I did it. It's that simple.

"I didn't feel any pressure."

Ming Ge stretched and smiled, saying, "As for you, hurry up and reach level 10, then I can help you with your job change."

"Change job?"

Alfia asked, puzzled.

"The Soul Materialization."

Ming Ge said, "Compared to the physical bodies of carbon-based life forms, their ability to Soul Materialization, though not yet perfect, far surpasses that of ordinary people."

"After achieving the transformation of its life form, its life form can become closer to that of a deity."

Of course, it's only close. The biggest difference between humans and gods lies not in their life form, but in their powers.

Divine body, divine soul, and extremely versatile divine power.

Although these beings are superior to mortals in the lower realms, their core is still power.

Perhaps it is because of power that they are able to surpass ordinary people.

"Just like the fairies you created."

Alfia suddenly realized, then asked, "Speaking of which, why at level 10?"

"Before the appearance of fairies, level 10 was considered the level closest to that of a god."

Ming Ge said, "However, the actual power and potential of fairies surpass the level of Divine Blessing; once the transformation of the Soul Materialization occurs, the physical body will be 100% compatible with the soul, thereby driving the overall rapid evolution."

"In other words, the Soul Materialization will liberate the human body and soul, granting them transcendent potential and a faster rate of growth."

"Isn't this better?" Alfia asked, puzzled.

"The souls I created are naturally good, because they are born in the most perfect state from the very beginning, and as long as there is enough energy, they do not need a growth process."

Ming Ge shook her head and said, "But it's not the same for humans, because the speed of evolution is too fast, so fast that human consciousness can't keep up. If our thoughts and emotions can't keep up, we might lose our sense of feeling."

This is something Ming Ge only discovered later: the souls of fairies are extremely pure, so pure that they are completely different from those of humans.

Their feelings were extremely simple, all for Ming Ge —this feeling originated from their souls, since the souls of fairies all grew from seeds condensed from Ming Ge's soul power.

Therefore, it is true that everything except Ming Ge is of little or no significance to them.

Simply put, aside from their unwavering loyalty to Ming Ge, their emotions and thoughts are closer to the 'natural way of heaven,' which represents a different level of thinking and realm.

Fairies who are born this way are fine, but for humans, such a leap is too great and it's easy to lose oneself.

The fact that deities can remain 'unchanged' and 'active' for hundreds of millions of years without any wear and tear is largely due to their innate capacity for thought.

It should be said that this way of thinking is one of the fundamental parts of their existence.

"So that's how it is. The complete liberation of thought and ideas, and the side effects of growing up too quickly?"

After a moment's thought, Alfia continued, "It's like compressing the natural process of a person's emotional and intellectual transformation. Things that should have been experienced are missed, which leads to a sense of being lost?"

"More or less."

Ming Ge nodded.

Transforming a 21st-century human being directly into the 'Tao' of a world is more likely to result in complete assimilation, leaving them unable to retain their own emotions and consciousness.

But before that, one must undergo trials and tribulations to bring one's abilities closer to the Dao, so as to minimize the impact.

"So, level 10 is the limit for humans?"

Alfia said thoughtfully.

"It is both the limit of human capability and the limit of Divine Blessing."

Ming Ge said, "The essence of Divine Blessing is a catalyst for growth, and it can expand the 'vessels' of the human body through upgrades; logically speaking, Divine Blessing should have no limits."

"However, through my research, I discovered that the power the physical body can contain, as well as the Divine Blessing, has its limits, namely level 10."

Not only are the physical bodies of carbon-based life forms limited, but even the physical bodies formed from the Soul Materialization have their limits.

Ming Ge has not yet found a way to break through the limits of fairies; he can only make them more in line with the laws represented by their own attributes.

After all, power is indeed a realm that neither the Ming Ge nor the Divine Blessing can reach.

The limits that fairies can reach are higher than level 10, so Ming Ge uses it as a transitional stage to godhood.

Technique, law, and principle—if one reaches the pinnacle of the realm of law, one will sooner or later reach the realm of principle.

"I see..."

Alfia gazed at Ming Ge.
