Chapter 168: The Death of the God of Luck, Infighting among the Gods, and the City in the Sky

Hearing this system prompt, Lu Cheng's eyes lit up.

 Then he flipped his hand and took out the statue of the God of Luck.

At this time, the statue seemed to have undergone some changes, and there was a faint light flowing on the surface.

 …

  【Statue of the God of Luck】

 【Grade: Gold】

  【Special items】

  【Lucky Shine: The wearer gains luck +10. 】

  【Soul Hotbed: The number of soul bodies currently accommodated is 1/1, and the soul fragment reserve is 10,000/10,000. It can be opened. Soul fragments exceeding the upper limit will be used to nourish the accommodated souls. 】

 …

However, the divinity in them all comes from divine particles, which are blessed on the body. Once the soul is separated, the divinity will disappear.

 “Divinity?”

 Finally, when the second hand completed one circle, a bright light suddenly lit up behind the door!

 In the bright light, the page lay flat on the ground, and a human figure stood up from the page.

 He had collected almost all of them before, but he had not activated them because of the interference from the life aberrations.

I wonder what will be in this hotbed of souls?

 “Turn on.”

 Now, I have finally collected 10,000 pieces.

　　【Ding, the Challenger Medal sensed a hint of the **** of luck. 】

In other words, this divinity belongs to the soul body in front of you!

Lu Cheng immediately thought silently in his heart and opened the hotbed of soul.

The door opened, revealing a burst of light.

But obviously, the soul body in front of me is an exception!

Lu Cheng took a deep breath and looked up at the page.

 In the middle of the hotbed is a delicate blank page.

 At first glance, he immediately found a clue.

 From the information he knows, there is no soul body that can carry divinity.

 As the second hand kept beating, the mana in the space at the door became more and more intense.

"This is…"

In this Toya ruins, each monster can provide two soul fragments, which makes the collection speed much faster.

 Divinity is not a rare thing, it can be found in divine envoys, divine servants, and even divine creatures.

The shape of this pattern is quite similar to the ghost clock that appeared in the upper left corner of his field of vision when he turned on the lucky sign!

 Is there any connection between the two?

Lu Cheng's mind immediately turned and he realized the lucky sign.

 “Tick-tock, tick-tock…”

As the lucky sign opened, the space behind the door suddenly filled with mana.

In the dim light, wisps of mana emerged, flowed into the air, and slowly condensed into a portal.

 In the space inside the door, mana is intertwined and woven into a hotbed.

"This is…"

 In the light, the scene behind the door is revealed.

At this moment, a system prompt sounded in his ear.

These traces actually vaguely formed a clock-shaped pattern.

 The marks on the paper are very light, and they are difficult to identify through the mana portal.

As his thoughts turned, the surface of the statue of the God of Luck shimmered.

 It really works!

 Listening to the system prompts, Lu Cheng raised his eyebrows.

After careful observation, Lu Cheng's expression changed slightly.

Glancing at the properties of the statue of the God of Luck, Lu Cheng's mind changed.

 The soul body contained in the soul hotbed is a piece of paper?

This form of soul body is quite rare!

Lu Cheng's heart moved.

Lu Cheng was overjoyed and waited patiently.

"This is…"

 Divinity is similar to the breath of gods. They are both traces left by gods. It is normal for them to be sensed by the Challenger Medal.

Leng Buding looked at it and saw that the page was blank, but upon closer inspection, he could see a series of inconspicuous marks!

 But there had been no response before, but when the soul hotbed was opened, a prompt suddenly came.

Thinking of this, Lu Cheng frowned slightly.

Looking at the shadow, Lu Cheng's heart suddenly moved.

This phantom looks somewhat similar to the statue of the God of Luck.

Is it possible that the soul of the God of Luck is really contained in this place?

This thought came to mind, and he couldn't help but be shocked.

 But immediately, he shook his head slightly.

 For humans in previous lives, gods were too powerful and the information they could obtain was quite limited.

Until the disaster of faith subsides, humans have not been able to find out what the upper limit of the gods’ strength is and how many levels it can be converted into.

  But what is certain is that the combat power of gods is quite powerful, far exceeding that of high-level talent experts who have completed five or even six turns.

 While the combat power is high, the soul body of the **** is also powerful.

This statue of the God of Luck is only gold-grade, and it cannot meet the standards to accommodate the soul of a god.

 In comparison, the divine breath crystal, which is also gold-level, can only carry the breath of the God of Shadows.

Then what’s going on with this phantom?

Just as he was thinking about it, the shadow opposite him spoke.

“The image of Cardillos is talking to you now. Congratulations, you have discovered the treasure of Cardillos, the **** of luck!”

The shadow’s voice was crisp and a bit jumpy.

 Take a photo? Lu Cheng raised his eyebrows.

 If this were the case, the previous divinity would be explained.

It is not surprising that the image of the God of Luck contains divinity.

Furthermore, the strength of a single shadow is about the same as the aura of the God of Shadows, so it makes sense that it can be stored in the hotbed of souls.

But...what does this treasure mean?

These photos were obviously just the beginning, so Lu Cheng waited patiently.

The God of Luck took a photo, paused, and spoke again:

“If you see this photo, I should have had an accident and died while exploring the ruins.”

Hearing the shadow’s voice, Lu Cheng’s pupils shrank suddenly.

 The God of Luck...is dead?

But soon, he recovered.

Although this news really shocked him, there were also various omens, so it was not too surprising to him.

 This omen is, firstly, the various luck-related equipment and treasures acquired by humans in previous lives.

Although such treasures appear in the world from time to time, the God of Luck has never appeared.

　　Whether it was seven years before the disaster or the outbreak of the disaster of faith, this **** had never been seen.

 Secondly, he had obtained the exploration diary of the God of Luck.

 In the exploration diary, the situation of the God of Luck is not very good.

It wouldn’t be surprising if he really died.

only…

Lu Cheng slowly exhaled and calmed down.

The disaster of faith has been raging for a whole year. Counting all mankind, not even a single **** has been killed. Even though he has come back to this life again, with his current progress, he is still far from defeating the gods.

 When he believed in the Disaster in his previous life, Xiao Muxue, the strongest person in Daxia at that time, had reached level 210, the fifth-level limit, and was still unable to confront the gods head-on. He could barely deal with it with the help of special treasures such as divine corrosion solution.

This is still Xiao Muxue, who has extraordinary talents and professions. If it were another professional, he would not even be able to deal with it.

Had they not fought among themselves, harvested faith, and not all massacred, human beings might not have been able to survive the faith disaster alone.

 This alone is enough to illustrate the power of gods.

 And now…

 The news of the God of Luck’s death was announced through this photo.

 I just don’t know what the cause of the God of Luck’s death will be?

 Lu Cheng's mind was spinning.

  There is more than one explanation for the photo saying that he died on the way to explore the ruins.

With the information in his hands now, there are already two options.

 First, an unexpected situation encountered in the Tianyun Ruins caused the God of Luck to be seriously injured and then died.

The second thing is the breath crystal in the Toya ruins, which points to another possibility.

 Although now, it is not known what the purpose of the Shadow God is.

 But the situation is already quite obvious. The God of Shadows left this Breath Crystal to target the God of Luck.

Although I don’t know which of the two gods is stronger in combat power, the God of Luck was seriously injured when he came out of the ruins of the meteorite. If he happened to be caught by the God of Shadows, he would most likely be difficult to match.

 It is not impossible to say that the God of Luck died in his hands.

 As to what kind of truth it is, it is difficult to judge based on the current information.

As his mind turned, Lu Cheng looked at the shadow in front of him.

This is the shadow left by the God of Luck. He can get a lot of information from every word!

"I don't know how I died... During the last meeting, the gods of the destruction faction looked at me a little strangely. Although it was very hidden, I still noticed it. I have reason to suspect that they have malicious intentions towards me. He might attack me or even kill me."

The shadow spoke again, and his words became more confidential:

"However, what puzzles me is why they would do this? With his destructive nature, he will not do anything without profit. But my path does not conflict with the path of destruction. Killing me will not bring them any benefit. What's the benefit? It will consume a lot of resources, unless it's..."

The shadow was a little confused and fell into deep thought.

"Unless he has some information that I don't know, which makes killing me profitable for them. But... for us now, besides the way, what else is there? Can it be called a benefit?"

Hearing Xuying’s words, Lu Cheng’s eyes narrowed.

 From this passage, he captured a key word.

 Paths!

There is no record of this word in the statistical archives of Daxia in the previous life.

 Furthermore, it is likely not just Bactria.

 The possibility that other countries will keep records is not very likely.

However, judging from the passage about the God of Luck taking a photo.

 For gods, this "path" seems to be a very important thing!

The God of Luck feels that the God of Destruction has no reason to attack him because the paths do not conflict with each other.

In other words, if the paths conflict, the gods will probably fight over it!

When people believed in disasters, the gods fought with each other. Could this be the reason?

 “Path…”

 Chewing on this word, Lu Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly.

 From the superficial meaning, it looks like a channel for upgrading and advancement.

 If this is the case, does it mean that these gods are also seeking to upgrade?

Just as he was thinking about it, the shadow in front of him suddenly changed the subject.

　　…Of course, I might not die in their hands.”

"Now, the implementation of the Divine Calendar has been put on the agenda, and the direction of exploring the ruins will basically not change. Judging from the current situation, there are only three candidates for exploring the ruins, one is Evil Energy, the other is Exile, and the third is me .If I am chosen to explore the ruins, there is a one in 10,000 chance that I will die in the ruins, haha..."

Xuying said and laughed, as if he was amused.

On the opposite side, Lu Cheng's eyes lit up.

 With this sentence, I can finally figure out a little timeline!

 It seems that the God of Luck left this photo before exploring the ruins!

 Lu Cheng silently noted it in his mind and continued to listen.

 After laughing a few times, the phantom of the God of Luck regained his composure and continued to talk.

　　…However, I don’t know what the reason is.”

 “This question is left to you to explore—if you want to get my treasure.”

The shadow spoke in a circle and returned to the treasure.

Listen to the meaning of this sentence, his treasure seems to be related to the cause of death? Lu Cheng's heart moved.

"Since you can get this statue that I have dealt with, you must have been to Temple No. 69 and found the one-way portal. My treasure is there. Of course... in order to avoid being caught by irrelevant things. People took it away, and I played some tricks in it.”

With a bit of slyness in his tone, Xuying spoke slowly:

“If you just use ordinary space source stones, then the portal will lead to the next temple, nothing special.”

"But... if you use the anti-space source stone, you can also activate the portal, which leads to the Sky City. My treasure is there, at the end of the Sky City."

Hearing Xuying’s words, Lu Cheng suddenly raised his eyes.

 The Temple No. 69 mentioned by the God of Luck's Shadow must be the underwater palace of the God of Tsunami.

However, that’s not the point.

 It is another place mentioned in his words, which is the location of the treasure.

Castle in the Sky!

 Recalling the information about the City in the Sky, Lu Cheng's thoughts changed rapidly.

If that portal really leads to the Sky City, even if there is no treasure of the God of Luck in it, the value of the Sky City itself is precious enough!

 This is an extremely critical location, between reality and mystery. There is only one such location in the world.

 The first time human beings came into contact with source energy in previous lives was in this city in the sky!

 This alone is enough to show its importance.

 But in the Sky City, there is not only source energy, but there are more things that are more precious than source energy.

Every group of people who enter the Sky City, without exception, have their strength greatly improved by a huge leap!

But the problem is that the entrance to the Sky City appears at an uncertain time and location, and there is no way to find it.

Furthermore, even if the entrance appears, only the first ten people can enter each time.

In the twenty years since the disaster, the total number of people who have entered the Sky City has been less than a thousand, including all the people in the world. ,

 In the previous life, the opportunity to enter the City in the Sky was too rare.

 And now…

If the phantom is true, then he only needs an anti-space source stone to set foot in the city in the sky.

 Compared with normal space source stones, anti-space source stones are much more precious.

 But compared with the benefits in Sky City, they seem a bit insignificant.

Thinking in his mind, Lu Cheng suppressed his excitement.

 Then, look at the shadow in front of you.

 From what this phantom said, it can be seen that the God of Luck is a little out of touch with his actions.

However, it is not to the extent of leaving a big secret treasure after death.

 There must be some purpose behind leaving this photo.

 But what is the purpose of a dead god?

While thinking, an almost impossible idea popped into his mind, making his pupils shrink.

 Resurrection!
