"Sister, why in the world is this?!” Zhu Qin’s face was full of stubborn defiance as she shouted at her sister loudly.
During normal tis, perhaps not even she herself would believe that she’d ever hold such an attitude towards the older sister she respected the most.
At this ti, the two had already returned to their villa. Unsurprisingly, Xin Berg was taken away by people from Astral Gate after having the bones in his hands and feet broken on the spot.
But Zhu Qin still couldn’t understand why the sister she believed to be omnipotent would personally lead their enemies straight to Brother Xin’s hideout just because of one sentence from that person…
"That person is very strong." Zhu Yue’s face was expressionless as she said quietly, "If I didn’t help him find Xin Berg, then he would’ve made good on his threat."
Zhu Qin was dazed. She seed to be trying to recall what specific “threat” Gu Nan promised, and she quickly thought of it.
……
"That Zhu Yue actually gave in so fast. How boring!" Ying Ge muttered very resentfully, dissatisfied that she didn’t get to watch a good show.
The main purpose of her visit was to further observe Gu Nan. As a result, because the opponent was too weak—or perhaps too "sensible"—she didn’t get to learn anything useful about Gu Nan at all.
Xin Berg didn't cause any more ruckus. No matter how many thods he had, they were all still limited to Tier 3. The celestial water was his final trump card.
Even this plan was casually defused by Gu Nan. What else could he do to turn the situation around?
Right now, Gu Nan had already sent this traitor off to Astral Gate, which would execute him after confirming his identity. Then Gu Nan's mission would be considered complete.
Missions of this level really weren’t hard for Gu Nan.
He was too lazy to even bother searching for clues bit by bit and directly found the other party’s biggest backer instead. Everything was good if this backer was obedient. Otherwise, he’d just have to go on a killing spree.
After Gu Nan returned to Astral Gate’s office in Zi Luo Heaven, the mission reward had indeed arrived in his account.
"Welco back, 5-star mber ‘Ying Ge’s Next-Door Neighbor Uncle Wang'," the gentle female voice rang out again, reading out the long code na without pausing.
Gu Nan didn’t even glance at Ying Ge’s flaming eyes beside him. He simply minded his own business and accepted the mission rewards.
As an open organization, Astral Gate naturally couldn’t engage in calculating how much each mber contributed to the mission. Instead, they only gave out two kinds of rewards.
One was physical objects or currency, and the other was points that corresponded to the mber’s level.
For example, Gu Nan earned 120 units of origin crystals as well as 5 points—he could upgrade his mbership level every ti he accumulated 100 points.
It was a very simple and clear rule, which was exactly why it was suitable for people who’d complete one mission and leave. This was an open organization’s logic.
Then, Gu Nan separated 100 units of origin crystals in his hand and exchanged them for active world origins, which was the purpose of his trip.
"Highly active world origin—how will the Evil God Temple respond to it?" With such a question, Gu Nan gently reached his hand out and touched the origin in front of him.
This wasn’t the first ti Gu Nan or even the Evil God Temple ca into contact with sothing like world origins.
Back at White Mist, the reward given to the mission translator for the completion of missions from different worlds’ wills was precisely world origin.
But regarding that kind of origin, the Evil God Temple’s feedback was personal dungeons—even now, there were still a pile of personal dungeons with the word "incomplete" lying in Gu Nan's dungeon panel.
On the other hand, although it was also a world origin, the origin of Immortal Demon World was very normal. Once Gu Nan controlled it, he was able to control that world.
Otherwise, Gu Nan wouldn’t be able to adjust Immortal Demon World’s coordinates. It’s just that he still wasn’t strong enough, or else he’d be able to hide Immortal Demon World in the blink of an eye.
Now, what exactly would this highly active origin—obtained using the Myriad Heavens Universe’s common currency of origin crystals—be recognized as?
The Evil God Temple quickly gave its answer. It shook slightly, conveying a ssage Gu Nan never expected.
｢Discovered fragnts of an ownerless divine fire. Do you wish to corrupt it?｣
Dumbfounded, Gu Nan stared at this prompt, and his heart felt like a thousand horses were galloping through it. A thousand thoughts could only be sumd up into one sentence: ‘So a world's origin was actually divine fire; why didn’t you say so earlier!’
At this ti, Gu Nan finally discovered the Evil God Temple’s greatest use: that is, to translate everything in this world into ga terms that he can understand.
Godhead, Divine Kingdom, and divine fire—these were all things that only existed in the ga. The World of Gods here may also have them, but Gu Nan had yet to co into contact with that world.
The relationship between the three was simple.
Godhead was a god’s core. The gods used it to manipulate their divine power.
Divine Kingdom was the foundation by which soone could ascend to godhood. It was also the source of their divine power.
And divine fire was the proof that a god could rule over a Divine Kingdom. Divine fire existed everywhere inside one’s Divine Kingdom, and it was also a god’s exclusive law. A god could only control the changes in their Divine Kingdom by using divine fire.
The so-called "igniting one’s divine fire" didn’t an igniting it inside one’s Godhead, but inside their Divine Kingdom instead. Moreover, once a god died, the divine fire in their Divine Kingdom would go out, and the Divine Kingdom would naturally beco an ownerless world.
Gu Nan was extrely familiar with these three things. Now that the Evil God Temple told him that highly active world origins were "fragnts of an ownerless divine fire," Gu Nan imdiately understood.
Divine fire represented a god’s exclusive law. Wasn’t that the equivalent of the world origins that Star Rulers controlled?
And world origins not controlled by a Star Ruler would naturally be "ownerless divine fire."
No wonder he only received personal dungeons through the translation thod. That’s because the world's will didn’t actually reward people with genuine world origins and rely displayed it for cultivators to observe.
Only by directly plundering it could cultivators truly strip away a world’s origin, no matter whether it originally had another owner or not.
In the eyes of Ying Ge next to him, Gu Nan's expression changed rapidly, sotis surprised and sotis between laughter and tears, as if he’d encountered a helpless matter.
Of course she wouldn’t know that rely matching a noun with a familiar ga term gave Gu Nan a deeper understanding of this world.
‘As expected, this world really does correspond to the ga. Even the loopholes that were originally in the ga settings have been resolved one after another…’ Gu Nan couldn't help feeling this way.
In the ga, dungeon worlds didn’t count as Divine Kingdoms, so naturally there was no divine fire in them.
However, in this real world, dungeons were also real planes, which ant they existed as ownerless Divine Kingdoms. This was why Gu Nan failed to co to this realization at first.
In his perception, a concept like an "ownerless Divine Kingdom" didn’t exist at all.
But everything beca clear now.
｢Corrupt the divine fire｣
Gu Nan's consciousness sank into the Evil God Temple and quickly ordered.
Evil Gods were existences that opposed the gods. Gods represented the world’s most orthodox of laws, while Evil Gods wanted to corrupt them. Be it divine fire or Godheads, it was the sa.
The world origin gained from 100 units of origin crystals was obviously not much; it didn't take long for the Evil God Temple to give another notice.
｢Divine fire corrupted. Obtained 20 Evil Value and 200 points｣
Gu Nan, who was in the Evil God Temple, couldn't help showing his joy at this ti—at this mont, he seed to truly understand that sentence.
The sentence that appeared every ti on the ga’s login screen.
｢Blasphemy is Sin｣
