Chapter 404 - 404 - Power Level
"Could Viscount Acto really be a prince?"
In the spacious church, everyone stood in place and listened to what Sloan had to say. Their hearts were heavy. They did not know what to say at this moment.
At this moment, their hearts were filled with shock.
As long as they thought of that possibility in their hearts, they could not help but be a little absent-minded. At this moment, they did not know what to say.
To block the prying eyes of the Eye of Nature, this undoubtedly explained everything.
The essence of Viscount Acto must be extremely high. It was very likely that he was an incarnation of a God.
This situation was not non-existent.
Everyone present knew clearly that with the revival of the world, there were already some Gods who had revived. Some even came to the Earth and reincarnated as mortals.
Although these people looked like mortals on the surface, they were actually the reincarnation of the true spirit of a God. Their essence was extremely strong, reaching a state that surpassed mortals.
As the reincarnation of a God, they might be able to take back their former authority and ascend to the position of God again in the future.
And at this moment, Chen Heng in front of them was very likely to be such an existence.
If that was the case, everything before this could be explained clearly.
For the reincarnation of a God, activating part of his previous divine power was a very normal thing at a critical moment.
Although there was still something wrong, this was the most probable explanation.
"No matter what, even if Viscount Acto is not a reincarnation of a certain God, he must have a profound relationship with a certain God..."
Standing in the same place, an old-looking Priest said. At this moment, he could not help but sigh softly, "The previous situation is proof."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present thought of the Angel Phantom that had almost enveloped the entire city that night. They could not help but silently nod their heads.
No matter what, at this moment, they had successfully made contact with Viscount Acto.
In the current situation, the stronger Viscount Acto was, the more advantageous it would be for them.
While the people of the Church of Nature were discussing, Chen Heng was also not idle.
At this moment, he was sitting quietly in his study room, quietly reading books.
These books in front of him were all sent over by Sloan.
The Church of Nature acted very quickly.
Almost as soon as Chen Heng made the request, they had already sent people over to deliver the things that Chen Heng needed.
He seemed to be very sensible and obedient.
The book collection of the Church of Nature was also very rich. Those ancient books and the likes had almost filled up Chen Heng's room. It was still not enough.
In the end, Chen Heng had to change to another place.
And in the recent period, he did not have anything on his hands that needed attention.
Kamo and Guluo Mary handled some daily matters.
As for the matters in his territory, he also had Ramu and Hedosiri assist him. There would not be any problems short term.
Therefore, Chen Heng moved directly to his study room and read these books.
The first thing he started to read was the information on this world's extraordinary system.
In this world, there were many extraordinary systems.
Before this, Chen Heng thought there were only two paths, the Life Knight and the Mage. However, there seemed to be more than just these two paths in reality.
In the ancient records, there were many different paths. Each path represented a path of transcendence.
Some of these paths of transcendence had disappeared, and some might still exist, but they had declined.
There were only two paths in the World of Gods, the Mage Path and the Life Knight Path. They had become a system for everyone to cultivate together.
And in such a wide variety of systems, there was a common standard.
People in the World of Gods were used to calling people of different levels with rings.
From the First Ring to the Sixth Ring, each had different characteristics.
Generally speaking, no matter what the system was, as long as one awakened the characteristics of their own path after entering the path, they could be considered an apprentice.
For example, if a Life Knight awakened life energy and a Mage awakened spiritual power, they could be considered an apprentice.
And after the apprentice level, there was the First Ring level. This level represented the initial grasp.
At this level, the Life Knight could grasp the life energy in his body and add it to his own body to increase his own strength, while the Mage could grasp magic power and cast some spells.
After that, the Second and Third Rings improved on this foundation.
Therefore, in the standards of the World of Gods, the First Ring to the Third Ring represented the mastery of one's own path.
The deeper the mastery, the more powerful one would be.
Take the Life Knight as an example.
The Life Knight could control life energy at the First Ring and use life energy to strengthen itself.
But at the Second Ring, it could go one step further and materialize life energy to form the Life Armor.
At the Third Ring, it could condense weapons and Wings of Life out of thin air and temporarily obtain the power to soar in the air.
And in the World of Gods' standards, after the Fourth Ring, there was another level. There had to be a qualitative change to awaken one's True Spirit after the Fourth Ring.
True Spirit was the first concept that Chen Heng had heard in this world.
In the World of Gods' standards, the so-called True Spirit materialized the origin of life forms.
Only by raising oneself to a certain level and awakening one's own True Spirit could one be considered a Fourth-Ringed True Spirit.
And this level was also considered a rather special moment.
The masters who had reached this level could continue to exist even if they had already died. Their True Spirits could separate from their bodies and exist independently.
The following Fifth-Ringed and Sixth-Ringed True Spirits were the same. It was just that the degree of the awakening of the True Spirit was different.
From this point of view, the Fourth to Sixth Rings could be called the True Spirit stage.
Chen Heng stood where he was and looked at the information that appeared in front of him. He couldn't help but think for a moment.
According to the standards of the World of Gods, he was already beyond the Fourth Ring level.
In the past, when Chen Heng was training in the Azure World and became a True Monarch. His True Spirit had already awakened and completed the transformation.
'Thinking about it, it seems that…'
Chen Heng stood where he was, and this thought flashed through his mind.
Even in the Azure World, a True Monarch seemed to be an exceptional existence.
This kind of existence had already awakened the origin of his True Spirit and reached another level.
As long as his origin wasn't exhausted, even if his body fell, he could be reborn in another place.
Compared to the previous level, it was a completely different level.
At this moment, various thoughts flashed through Chen Heng's mind, and then he continued to look ahead.
After the Sixth Ring was the so-called Seventh Ring.
And this stage had extraordinary characteristics. In the World of Gods, this stage had another name - Epic.
Epic meant the peak of the human world. It only appeared in the bard songs. It was an Epic sung by mortals.
"Force, huh..."
Looking at the ancient records in front of him, Chen Heng couldn't help but lower his head and fall into deep thought.
The so-called Epic was only possible when one's True Spirit was strengthened to an extreme and then transformed again.
And when one's True Spirit transformed to the extreme, it would nurture a Force unique to one's own body.
"I see..."
Standing where he was, Chen Heng suddenly thought of the dragon corpse.
Before this, his Kobold clone had seen an enormous dragon corpse in the secret realm.
That dragon corpse was a black dragon. It had been dead for tens of thousands of years, but there was still a powerful force on the corpse. It was like the center of the world, giving people a strong impact.
Now that he thought about it, that feeling should be the so-called Force.
It was very powerful and vigorous.
Seeing this, Chen Heng thought for a moment and then continued to look back.
After the Epic, there was the Legend.
The characteristics of the so-called Legend did not change much compared to the Epic. It was just that the Force that belonged to oneself had further evolved and perfected, forming a small domain.
At this stage, it began to influence the surroundings. As long as one controlled his own domain, one could control everything in the region and burst out a terrifying power with a thought.
And after the Legend was the Mythic.
The existence of the Mythic was just like its name. Just its own existence was already a myth.
This was also the strongest individual in the World of Gods apart from the Gods.
This kind of existence could no longer be considered a mortal in essence. It could be a Close-to-God individual.
The existence of a powerful Mythic could even contend with Gods and defeat the incarnation of a Mythic.
And at this level, the most important characteristic, in addition to completely perfecting one's own domain, was the Body of Laws that condensed one's own body.
Body of Laws...
Seeing this, Chen Heng could not help but be stunned.
It seemed that he had already begun to form his own Body of Laws at this moment.
If this was the case, wouldn't he have already entered the stage of Mythic?
"No, this can't be the case."
Chen Heng shook his head and denied this point. The situation on his body was rather special.
The essence of divinity was above everything, thus allowing him to possess a part of a higher level of the essence in advance.
This was also the reason why he had a higher level of characteristics.
In terms of himself, he had not even reached the limit of his own True Spirit. In terms of his own level, he had not even reached the peak of Sixth Ring, let alone condensed the Force that belonged solely to himself.
Therefore, at this moment, he should still be below the Epic level and had not really reached that level.
As for the Body of Laws that he possessed, it was a product of the simulation.
Before this, through his own simulation, he had absorbed a lot of Power of Laws.
Most of the Power of Laws was absorbed by the divinity in his body, strengthening his divinity.
However, there was also a small portion that fused into his body, turning his body into the Body of Laws.
This was also the main reason he could withstand the Dusk Divine Weapon and not collapse.
Otherwise, if it was really just his own power, with his current life level, he would not be able to withstand the aura of the Divine Weapon and would directly collapse.
The Body of Laws in his body was not formed by himself but was affected by the power of the simulation.
It wasn't a normal situation.
"Through speculation, I should be at the Sixth Ring..."
Standing on the spot, Chen Heng felt his own state.
His True Spirit had already awakened, and from the very beginning, he was already at the Fourth Ring level.
In the previous simulation, along with the return of the Origin, his True Spirit had also become stronger under the nourishment of the Origin because it had reached a new level.
In terms of the life level, the current him should be a Sixth-Ring which had not reached the level of perfection.
Of course, the life level was the life level, but strength was another matter.
If strength was included, with the divine power Chen Heng currently controlled and his own Body of Laws, it should suffice to contend even against Legendary or Mythic.
If he went all out and directly summoned the incarnation of the Holy Son to descend and erupt with the power of faith of an entire world, then he should be able to resist and suppress even a divine weapon.
"If I calculate it this way, it's very clear."
Then, he could not help but shake his head and understand his own situation.
Cooperating with an ancient force had such benefits.
Compared to Chen Heng himself, the Church of Nature had the complete inheritance and records, allowing Chen Heng to understand his level.
Of course, there were no inheritances above the Mythic.
Above the Mythic inheritance was the domain of the Gods
For this level, not to mention the Church of Nature, even the most powerful churches probably did not have inheritances of this level.
Chen Heng did not demand it.
Even if it was only the current level of inheritance, it was enough for him to use.
When the Church of Nature sent the things over, they also gave their part of the inheritance to Chen Heng.
That was the entire inheritance from the First Ring to the Sixth Ring, which had tremendous value in it.
However, for Chen Heng, it was not very useful.
He was already at the level of Sixth Ring, and all he needed to do was to fill up his True Spirit and make it reach a complete state. Then, he could try to transform and enter the Epic level.
This process might be very difficult for ordinary people, but for Chen Heng, it was very simple.
The simplest method was to carry out a few more simulations and then use the augmentation from the return of Origin to complete his True Spirit quickly.
This was also the fastest method.
Before this, he had used this method, so Chen Heng's progress was very fast. He quickly strengthened his True Spirit to its current level.
Therefore, the inheritances before the Sixth Ring were useless to Chen Heng.
As for the inheritances after the Sixth Ring, the entire Church of Nature didn't have any either.
Of course, this didn't mean that these inheritances were useless.
At least, even though they were useless to Chen Heng, to others, these inheritances were solid.
Bestowing them to others could also guide the others.
At least, Hedosiri and the others wouldn't have to worry about the inheritances after that.
At this moment, Hedosiri and the others had already reached the level of the Second Ring and were about to reach the level of the Third Ring.
After reaching this level, their original inheritances had already reached the end, and they had lost the direction to advance further.
The inheritances given by the Church of Nature were coincidentally able to help Chen Heng solve this problem.
"However, if I want to inspect and reach the peak of Sixth-Ring, it doesn't seem impossible for me to reach a higher level in a short period of time..."
Standing where he was, Chen Heng recalled what he had just learned, and various thoughts flashed through his mind.
With his current level, even if he wanted to improve a little, it would be extremely difficult.
And to reach the peak of his current level in a short period of time, such a thing was almost impossible.
If it was anyone else, it would be impossible, but Chen Heng was different.
At least compared to others, he had his own unique advantage.
At this moment, his Kobold clone was still in the outside world, and as time passed, it had become powerful to a certain extent.
If Chen Heng were willing to take back his Kobold clone, the clone and the main body would merge into one.
Then, in a short time, Chen Heng's strength could rapidly increase and even directly reach Epic level.
However, now was not the time. From the current situation, the Kobold clone was developing very well in the desert, and it also had great potential.
It would be too much of a waste to take it back now.
Rather than that, it would be better to carry out a few more simulations, which would be more realistic.
This thought flashed through Chen Heng's mind on the spot, and he couldn't help but shake his head.
Then, he got up and left the place.
He walked out of the room and came to the outside world. At this moment, the sky outside was gradually turning dark.
The sky around him seemed to have become much dimmer. Soon, it would be night.
In the distance, a faint breeze blew past, blowing the corners of Chen Heng's clothes into the air, bringing with it a cool and refreshing feeling.
Feeling this unique feeling, Chen Heng stood there alone, looking at the distant sky. At that moment, many thoughts flashed through his mind.
"After a period of time, it should be about time for Hedosiri and the others to return, right?"
Chen Heng stood where he was and looked into the distance. Then, this thought flashed through his mind.
Before this, he had already informed Hedosiri and Ramu to rush here.
It was almost time based on his calculations.
After the two of them arrived, Chen Heng could do more things.
A smile appeared on his face. Then, he turned around and left.
Time slowly passed. Soon, another few days passed.
After a few days, the figures of Hedosiri and Ramu finally appeared in front of Chen Heng again.
Compared to the past, they did not seem to have changed much.. They were still wearing that set of armor and were now striding forward.
