Village Head's Debauchery-Chapter 1261: Seeking For An Ascension Path To Divinity(2), Paradise Future Plans
Without that conversation, he wouldn’t have known that bases could be built between the Material World and the Spirit Realm, the same as a Spiritual Link Point.
General Reynold, a powerful divine being in his time, the leader of the seven great gods had been able to go toe-to-toe with the nine greed gods and even hold his own against Naka. For him to say that he had encountered a powerful spirit beast he wanted to bring back to the Material World spoke volumes about the strength of some inhabitants of the Spirit Realm.
Orion decided to inform General Reynold and Oberon about the information he had obtained from HX-09.
"I see. That is indeed a problem," General Reynold said, his tone solemn.
After contemplating for a moment, he focused on Orion and continued, "Paradise might not have the adequate force to handle them now, but we can’t change our plans. There are countless Spiritual Link Points in the Spirit Realm, and even with their formidable forces, it would be impossible for them to establish bases in all of them without provoking the wrath of the residents of the Spirit Realm and entering into conflict with them."
"If that’s the situation, it should be easier for you to gather information about them. But if not, we could seize a Spiritual Link Point and stealthily build our base there. Regardless of the circumstances, there is always a way forward," he concluded.
"If that’s the case, I will begin preparations so we can head out," Orion nodded. There was no reason to delay their plans, as they would benefit Paradise, regardless of the enemies they encountered.
"Excellent," General Reynold said, nodding in approval at how quickly Orion had accepted their current circumstances and immediately started planning the way forward.
Truly the mindset of a Supreme Leader of Paradise!
"One more thing," he added, "While your artefacts might be able to function within the Spirit Realm, your Divine Mandate won’t. This is because the Spirit Realm has its own rules that govern it, placing it as a separate realm from the Material World. Even the Divine Mysteries cannot easily penetrate it, which is one of the reasons divine beings don’t find it an ideal place to reside."
"However, you don’t need to worry about that, as you should be able to use your Divine Mandate outside of this Realm, albeit with a few limitations. The same can’t be said for your partners. So, rather than selecting those with Divine Mandates, it’s best to choose individuals who can defend themselves with their abilities."
"And one of those individuals must be the localised Will of the Twelve Step Stairs. Due to her nature, she can communicate with ’it’, but we are still unsure about her capabilities as ’its’ ’Will.’ So, in order to test her capabilities, she would be accompanying you all to the Spirit Realm. If she can survive outside of the realm, is something that we are still unsure of," General Reynold responded.
"But if she can, she might reveal a few surprises that will aid the task or uncover something invaluable for Paradise. We have high hopes for her potential and wish to unravel what it is."
Orion was taken aback by this unexpected revelation. He never imagined that the Spirit Realm could prevent Divine Mandates from operating within it. However, he relaxed considerably after recalling that it was one of the reasons they had added a fragment of the Will of the Twelve-Step Stairs into the Throne of Infinite Edicts.
"Rest assured, I will do my best to ensure that the localised Will of the Twelve Step Stairs is taken care of, and Paradise can seize a Spiritual Link Point and return to the outside realm," Orion said confidently.
"Good. We’ve also selected women with exceptional potential and qualities matching your appeal. They would fit perfectly into your family and greatly aid Paradise once they ascend to the divine. You only need to see the first group and decide before you head to the Spirit Realm," General Reynold said, raising an important issue.
"You can reject any or all of them without explanation. We are still reviewing several others before making a final decision."
Orion nodded in understanding.
General Reynold gave a satisfied nod.
"Is there anything else you would like to ask?" he asked, looking at Orion curiously.
"Yes. It’s about the Prismerions gods’ Chosen. I wonder if it’s a good idea for them to follow us," Orion asked.
He had informed them about Prismerion’s Divine Apostle Crest, which allows them to devour spirit beasts to grow stronger. He had requested that they investigate it to see if Naka had laid any traps within the crest, but he had yet to receive any information regarding their findings.
He had learned that Crystalia’s and Selene’s Divine Apostle Crest had shattered when they ascended to divinity. Still, neither he, Aerialia, nor Ilse could figure out anything about the unique crest, leaving them concerned about the unknown.
He hoped they could decipher something to determine whether including the Prismerion’s Divine Apostle into this force was the best course of action.
"Although I hate to admit it, the Divine Apostle Crest is a marvel of sophistication. To be able to transform spirit beasts into divine energy, storing and steadily injecting it into an individual, bypassing the usual procedure of ascending to divinity by becoming a demigod or a Divine Apostle subservient to another divine being while still retaining the abilities of the original divine blood it was forged from, is something we didn’t believe was possible," General Reynold said with a sigh.
"However, from what we have managed to uncover, it’s clear that their Divine Apostle Crest is merely a prototype. This is one way we confirmed it was created by Naka. Only he could experiment with Divine Apostle Crests in such a way and be successful."
"The more they use the Divine Apostle Crest, the quicker it falls apart. It’s unable to remain stable for long, so they should absorb higher-rank spirit beasts to quicken their growth and make the most of their divine ability. Fortunately, the Divine Apostle Crest wasn’t made from Naka’s blood, so he cannot influence them. If anyone does, it would be Aerialia. But knowing how crafty Naka is, we’re still looking into it to uncover anything else."
"You can take the Prismerion Divine Apostle and the Four-eared Elves with you to mask your agenda and avoid drawing too much suspicion. But be careful not to reveal the existence of Divine Apostle Crest in the Spirit Realm to avoid conflict with its inhabitants."
While Paradise may be powerful, we don’t need more enemies; we need allies. Regardless of how fragile the relationship is, as long as we accomplish our goals, the more support we have, the better," General Reynold continued. "We will inform you if we discover anything else."
"Alright, I will be waiting for more findings," Orion responded, sighing in relief, his expression satisfied.
With this, he was sure they wouldn’t encounter too many problems when venturing into the Spirit Realm.
"I don’t have any more questions for now. When I do, I’ll return here to ask them," Orion added.
General Reynold and Oberon nodded in acknowledgement.
Orion turned toward the Will of the Twelve Step Stairs and nodded respectfully, saying his goodbyes before he exited the Sundial with his throne.
Hovering above the Sundial, Orion looked down at the former Village Chief’s compound, which had been left untouched except for the small stony platforms surrounding it, built for Paradise’s inhabitants who wanted to visit and view the Sundial from which the Will of the Twelve Step Stairs had emerged.
This was due to General Reynold’s suggestion that nothing in this world was worth covering or hiding the Will of the Twelve Step Stairs with, and there was no need to conceal it from Paradise’s residents. As a result, the former Village Chief’s compound was opened and closed at specific hours each day for those wishing to see the Sundial.
This was proof that the Will of the Twelve Step Stairs truly regarded Paradise as its own and wanted to be part of it.
With a thought, Orion created new bracelets from the Throne of Infinite Edicts, possessing powers greater than those of the Divine Medallion of Sovereign Accord. The bracelets resembled the precious stony bracelets but with golden alloy and starlight-like threads embedded around them.
He forged several thousand of these, each with a specific limited authority, to be given to Paradise Key Leaders and other high-ranking figures and warriors to prepare them for the next revolution in Paradise.
Instantly, the bracelets vanished as he delivered them to the key leaders. He also sent out a message informing them of his new Divine Mandate, though he kept its full abilities a secret, as they were too shocking, and he wasn’t sure if they could comprehend such information.

He advised them to keep the old bracelets related to the Divine Medallion of Sovereign Accord for future developments, as they would undoubtedly be helpful outside the realm.
After reading the messages sent to him, Orion vanished from his position and reappeared above the Golden Palace Castle.
