Returning to the Divine Realm, Lin Xiao sat on the divine throne at the heart of the Divine Core Palace, his hand to his forehead in deep thought.

Although he had already decided, he still hesitated before the final choice. How should he choose? Which path should he take?

Now, there were actually quite a few paths laid out before him. In addition to the Divine Positions of the Supreme Naga and the Fishmen, he could also choose the powerful Divine Positions of Creation and the Ocean, and it was these two that he was hesitating over.

It wasn’t a matter of which one to choose, but whether to choose them both, and moreover, whether to select the other three potential Divine Positions with a low chance of actualization—Judgement, Truth, and Destiny.

Yes, that’s Judgement, a powerful Divine Position, as well as Truth and Destiny, two extremely powerful Divine Positions.

The Truth Divine Position originated from the Tower of Truth. Given the relationship between the Wise Goblins and the Tower of Truth, there was a good chance that he would eventually develop a rudimentary form of the Truth Divine Position. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

As for the Divine Position of Judgement, he had obtained it from analyzing the broken Scales of Judgement of Fate, and the Divine Position of Destiny was gained in the same way.

Creation, Ocean, Judgement, Truth, Destiny—there were five potential Divine Positions he could achieve. In theory, he could aim for all of them.

But theory is just theory. In reality, aside from Creation and Ocean, the chances for the others were slim.

The Divine Position of Creation had already been destined to manifest; he only needed to become a Demigod and he would automatically receive it.

The Ocean Divine Position was already budding. If he chose that path next, whether it be the Fishmen or the Supreme Naga, both born of the ocean and part of his Clan, would provide him with an affinity in this aspect.

However, for Judgement, Destiny, and Truth, he only had a lead. Whether he could condense a Divine Position was very uncertain.

The most critical issue was that these three Divine Positions were too powerful. Leaving Judgement aside, which is a potent Divine Position comparable to those of Ocean, War, Life, Death, etc., Truth and Destiny surpassed these powerful Divine Positions and each could support a great divine power.

Sustaining such extremely powerful Divine Positions, not to mention their complexity to condense, the key was that the Divinity requirements were too high, so high that he was unsure how much Divinity would be necessary to sustain them.

According to the experience of his predecessors, lower-level Divine Positions typically required less than five points of Divinity.

Mid-level Divine Positions have an extremely wide range, starting from a little over five points—which is to say, from Level 2 Divine Beings—and could go as high as dozens of points.

And for the powerful upper-level Divine Positions, the requirement is at least forty points, meaning that only beings with at least Fifth Level Divinity can condense them.

Super Divine Positions are of course beyond forty points.

Therefore, most Divine Territory Players, including students from institutions like the Super Academy Affiliate Middle School, choose mid-level Divine Positions when they become Demigods, with only a few exceptionally outstanding individuals choosing powerful higher-level Divine Positions at the start.

Even for a cheat player like Lin Xiao, there’s no guarantee that he could condense a second powerful Divine Position after choosing one.

In other words, aside from the Divine Positions of Creator, Naga, and Fishmen, he could only choose one other powerful or super Divine Position—there was no possibility of choosing a second powerful Divine Position.

So now the question arises, Truth or Destiny—which should he choose?

If he could only choose one, then he definitely could only choose one of these two strongest ones. The rest would have to wait until he became more powerful in the future.

The Truth Divine Position isn’t easy to describe—it’s something that can be interpreted in many ways. But speaking from a philosophical concept—

Truth, that which is eternally immutable and the only real rightness.

Truth represents the principles that correspond to reality, immutable and correct, which are objective matters and their rules.

Truth can also be divided into absolute and relative truths, where absolute truth refers to the unrestricted general principles; relative truth refers to the principles that hold true under specific conditions and with limitations.

It sounds complicated. And indeed, it is.

In terms of Divine Positions, this means the holder will possess the absolute correctness of the world, which sounds very prestigious and naturally is extremely powerful.

Destiny, on the other hand, refers to fate and luck, which means a pattern that proceeds from a combination of constants and variables.

Fate and luck are two distinct concepts: fate being the constant, referring to a specific object, and luck being the variable, referring to the transformation of time and space. When luck comes, fate changes accordingly.

In terms of Eastern philosophy, fate has a dual meaning.

One is ‘life’, signifying the inherent nature granted at birth.

The other is ‘fortune,’ which refers to the changes in fortune throughout different stages of life.

Fate discusses a whole lifetime, while fortune is transient.

It sounds mysterious, and indeed it is. To hold the super Divine Position of Destiny is to master all fates within a Crystal Wall Universe, encompassing both Deities and realms.

So…

Lin Xiao felt very conflicted. Both Truth and Destiny were incredibly powerful Divine Positions, and either one would enable him to thoroughly grasp its rules and ascend to great divine power, making the choice exceedingly difficult.

Having sat in silence on the divine throne for a long time, he carefully and seriously considered the powers of the Truth and Destiny Divine Positions and the impacts choosing either path would have. After weighing various factors and deliberating for several days, Lin Xiao finally made his choice.

Truth!

He chose Truth.

The reason that prompted this decision was simple: Truth is much more low-key compared to Destiny.

Had he chosen the Destiny Divine Position, as soon as he coalesced it in the future, it would immediately have an impact on the fate of the Main World and would likely be discovered by those powerful beings there. As a mere demigod, he would have no chance of concealing his Godhood.

The consequences of such an impact were unknown, as were the consequences of being discovered.

In addition, as soon as a demigod possessing the Destiny Divine Position entered any Crystal Wall System, his insufficient strength to restrain himself would immediately cause a certain impact, making him immediately detectable by the source will of the Crystal Wall System, which would be extremely disadvantageous for him.

In contrast, the Truth Divine Position is much more inconspicuous. Even after coalescing the Truth Divine Position, it would not affect the Main World in any way and would naturally not be easily discovered.

It’s not because of the saying that “Truth is held by very few,” but rather because Truth indeed does not affect others; it’s like if someone discovers some truth, as long as they don’t divulge it, at most it affects the person psychologically, without causing any material impact on anyone else before it comes out.

Thus, Lin Xiao formally decided to set his Godhood goal as Truth.

Therefore, during his sophomore and junior stages, all his actions would be aimed at coalescing this Godhood.

Given his current situation, as long as he works hard to expand the influence of the Tower of Truth, once it reaches a certain level, the rudimentary form of the Godhood will naturally coalesce. By then, as long as he has enough Divinity to carry the Truth Divine Position and accumulates enough Divine Power, he will naturally be able to coalesce the Truth Divine Position.

“Hmm! I wonder what it will be like to have mastered Truth!”

Lin Xiao was very much looking forward to this.

Having made his choice, the card shattered and dissipated within the Divine Realm. He immediately felt that the two fixed Divine Extraordinary Abilities he owned were now open for re-selection, and his three original basic Divine Arts could also be reselected.

The two Divine Extraordinary Abilities he currently owned were Mockery and Reproduction; one was his initial choice, and the other a derivative of the Creation Rule.

Of these, the Reproduction ability could be retained, but Mockery was no longer necessary. That Divine Extraordinary Ability was now useless; its applicability was limited, its power insufficient, and even after leveling up, it wouldn’t be very strong. Most importantly, he would not choose the Ocean Divine Position now, so there was no need to keep it.

He needed to reselect one according to his current capabilities and conditions from the available Divine Extraordinary Ability pool.

With a thought, a screen of light popped up, displaying a series of Divine Extraordinary Abilities in front of him.

Extraordinary Strength, Extraordinary Speed, Extraordinary Constitution, Extraordinary Rebirth, Extraordinary Will, Extraordinary Spirit, Extraordinary Charm, and so on—basic Extraordinary Abilities.

Choosing one, that area would rocket up in a doubling fashion.

For example, if he chose Extraordinary Strength, his True Body’s strength would double on its current basis, with an additional doubling each time he leveled up, an extremely exaggerated enhancement.

However, for Divine Territory Players, this ability was rather redundant; once becoming a deity, isn’t it all about Divine Power or Legendary Spells clashing? Who would actually enter the fray personally? How low that would be.

If it really came down to the True Body needing to fight, it would generally mean that one is in a desperate situation; in such a scenario, wouldn’t it be better to choose something like Extraordinary Teleportation for a quick escape?

Then there’s Extraordinary Fear Technique, Extraordinary Human Immobilization Technique, Extraordinary Monster Immobilization Technique, Transcendent Belittling Technique, Extraordinary Beast Summoning, Extraordinary Undead Awakening, Extraordinary Teleportation… and so on—spell class Extraordinary Abilities.

These are enhanced versions of spells; for example, the Extraordinary Human Immobilization Technique could immobilize any humanoid creature that isn’t stronger than oneself, including BUG-like humanoid creatures like Giants.

There was also Extraordinary Resurrection Technique, Extraordinary Light Technique, Extraordinary Slaughter Technique, Extraordinary Tsunami Technique, Extraordinary Catastrophe Technique, Extraordinary Predictive- Techniques…

“Wait, Prophetic Technique? No, it’s Prophetic Art.”

Lin Xiao glanced at the introduction of this Extraordinary Ability and waved it away:

“Never mind then.”

He had thought it was the Prophetic Technique.

All the abilities in this Divine Extraordinary Ability pool were related to his current abilities; besides basic Extraordinary Abilities like Strength, Constitution, Speed, each person’s other Divine Extraordinary Abilities would differ.

For example, the Extraordinary Tsunami Technique is an advanced version of Mockery and typically appears only for those with a divine position related to the sea.

Extraordinary Catastrophe Technique usually appears for divine positions associated with causing various natural disasters, such as earthquakes, storms, lightning, and so on.

Extraordinary Light Technique and Extraordinary Slaughter Technique are associated with Judgement Divine Position.

Resurrection Technique is linked with Creator Divine Position, and life-related divine positions can obtain Resurrection Technique as well.

Prophetic Art is related to both Truth and Destiny.

Therefore, the choice was clear—it must be Extraordinary Predictive.

This Divine Extraordinary Ability was very straightforward: when he needed to do something, he could use this ability to predict whether the outcome would be good or bad. Moreover, following the path of Truth that Lin Xiao took, the principle of Truth Predictive Art was to compile the intelligence he possessed to make predictions,
