Online game: Stealing god-level items, looking for bosses to purchase goods

Boom!!!

With a deafening roar that shook the heavens, the gates of the Lost City burst open.

Players who had been waiting for a long time flocked in instantly.

The crowds seemed to flow, converging into the Western Ruins like a torrent.

Meanwhile.

Within the ruins of Atlantis.

Chen Ming slowly opened his eyes.

The icy feeling that had enveloped his entire body had faded, and the extremely comfortable sensation, as if he were immersed in amniotic fluid, had completely dissipated. Only then did Chen Ming slowly wake up.

"Has it been absorbed... completely?"

Chen Ming snapped out of his daze.

He even felt like he was falling asleep just now.

Since being expelled from China and wandering alone, chasing after the Shadow Organization, Chen Ming has not had such a comfortable rest in a long time.

I stretched unconsciously.

Chen Ming's bones were making a series of crackling sounds, like popping beans.

"Cool!"

The long-lost feeling of refreshment made Chen Ming let out a low growl.

Then he opened his system panel.

"Possesses divine power: 3,371,054"

Chen Ming's expression clearly showed that he was taken aback.

He rubbed his eyes in disbelief, then looked again...

One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand...

million!

Three million three hundred and seventy thousand!

"Holy crap?!"

Chen Ming gasped in shock.

Completely immersed in that comfortable feeling, Chen Ming was completely unaware of how much divine power he had absorbed.

His understanding of the amount of divine power within the jar was still based on his initial estimate.

"It's probably just over a million," was Chen Ming's long-held belief.

But now it seems...

He was wrong.

That's completely wrong!

Three million.

"The divine power within the jar is a full three million!!!"

He didn't miscalculate.

He previously possessed a divine power of over a million, but after half of it was absorbed by the divine runes, he still had a little over five hundred thousand left.

Then, when facing the barrier that the reincarnated person was protected by the Great Western Ruins, more than 100,000 were spent, leaving a balance of 370,000.

Currently, I possess a full 3.37 million divine power, with an extra 3 million!

"I was short-sighted!"

Chen Ming's face was beaming with a smile.

"Now that I have seven figures of divine power again, I can try injecting divine runes!"

Chen Ming immediately condensed divine runes.

Although this divine rune had previously swallowed over 500,000 units of Chen Ming's divine power without warning, it behaved quite well when Chen Ming didn't actively inject any into it and only used it to absorb divine power.

It did not absorb even a fraction of that three million divine power.

Chen Ming began to pour his divine power into it.

100,000...

Three hundred thousand...

Seven hundred thousand...

A massive amount of divine power converged and increased, but the divine runes remained unchanged.

Until the divine power Chen Ming injected broke through the six-figure mark and reached the million-figure level.

"Om...!"

The slightly solidified ball of light in the center of the divine runes suddenly began to rotate slightly!

If Chen Ming hadn't been observing carefully, he would never have noticed this insignificant change.

"As expected, it takes an injection of millions of divine powers to trigger changes in the divine runes!"

"My guess was right!"

Chen Ming was overjoyed and immediately increased the intensity of the injection. A torrent of divine power surged in, with 3.3 million units of divine power pouring out and rushing into the room!

One million three hundred thousand!

One million eight hundred thousand!

Two million!

Two and a half million!

Three million!

A total of three million divine powers flowed in!

Aside from reserving 370,000 units of divine power for himself as an emergency measure, Chen Ming poured all of his remaining power into the project!

The changes brought about by these three million divine powers are quite obvious.

The solidified part in the center of the divine rune, which was slightly rotating, suddenly increased its speed!

It no longer requires careful observation to detect the changes.

The rotation of this thing has already caused the surrounding gas-like parts that have not yet solidified to become a small vortex as a whole!

"That's it..."

"It seems this is the upgrade path for the Immaculate Divine Rune!"

The question that had been lingering in Chen Ming's mind for a year was finally answered at this moment!

No wonder Chen Ming had failed every time he tried to gather divine power and draw divine runes.

It turns out that it didn't develop in the way that ordinary divine runes do!

It differs from those divine runes that require players to intuitively understand and actively draw to outline the direction of development.

The Immaculate Divine Rune seems to have a clear path to advancement from the very beginning!

It will develop on its own and become stronger.

It just needs a massive amount of divine power to support its development.

According to the information Chen Ming obtained from Ancestor Maxi, a player who has just entered the path of divinity, if their aptitude and talent are average, can only convert about 100,000 divine power into their hands in a year.

The divine power they needed to draw the divine runes was not excessive.

In the early stages of embarking on the path to divinity, each of the first six strokes of the divine runes requires approximately 10 to 30 divine power.

This is mainly related to the player's own talent, comprehension, and the difficulty of obtaining the divine runes.

Basically, one to two million divine power is enough for an ordinary player to complete the outline of six divine runes, thus stepping into the middle stage of the Path of God.

The seventh to twelfth divine runes in the middle stage consume twice as much energy per rune.

The cost ranges from 50 to 150.

The skill gap between players can be as large as three times, which will fully demonstrate the difference in their talents.

Those without talent would need to use tens of millions of divine powers here, and even that might not be enough.

Even for geniuses who only emerge once in countless cycles, it would take three to four million to cross this threshold.

However, once they reached the thirteenth divine rune, which was the stage that both Ancestor Maxi and Chen Ming agreed was capable of sweeping across the world and ascending to godhood, it was beyond their comprehension.

After all, without data samples, even someone as meticulous as Ancestor Maxi couldn't give a specific answer. But Chen Ming calculated that this step might require five to twenty or thirty million to outline a single divine rune!

His own Immaculate Divine Rune, though only at the initial stage and without any changes, already showed a terrifying demand.

"I wonder what kind of changes this injection of three million units of divine power will bring to it..."

Chen Ming gazed at the vortex within the divine runes, unable to suppress his anticipation.
