Global Deities: Rising as Wood Elves' God

Below the Sacrificial Altar,

a single word echoed in the minds of the countless ordinary Clan members: "Loyalty!"

Elf Legion Commander Feiyana dropped to one knee, placing her left hand on her knee and gripping her sword hilt with her right. She struck her armor hard, and the plates rang with a sharp CLANG.

The Elf Soldiers behind her followed her lead, performing the exact same action in unison:

"We fight for the Great God of Nature, faithful until death! We will not rest until we return to the Divine Kingdom!"

At that moment, the Dwarf Leader, Copperbeard Ironhammer, was so emotional he could barely speak.

Copperbeard Ironhammer threw his hammer to the ground, his beard trembling with emotion. Though his gruff voice wavered, it did not stop him from making the most solemn vow of his life:

"The Dwarf Clan is willing to dedicate everything to the Great God of Nature!"

"With the hammers in our hands, we will forge the hardest walls for the Great God of Nature.

We will also forge the sharpest Divine Artifacts for the Great God of Nature to wield!"

The other Dwarves followed the actions of their leader, Copperbeard Ironhammer.

And upon the altar, Elf High Priest Shamiel raised her Magic Staff, her voice trembling with emotion as she offered the most fervent prayer:

"Praise be to the Great God of Nature!"

"We are grateful for the might of Your Divine Power! May Your Divine Kingdom be exalted in the heavens and endure for eternity!"

"May we live our lives under the protection of the God of Nature, fighting for the Great God of Nature,

faithful until death!"

In that instant, every single Clan member, regardless of their race, radiated reverence for the Great God of Nature from the bottom of their hearts.

A torrential Power of Faith surged and gathered in Zhang Yi’s direction.

This grand ceremony alone provided Zhang Yi with over a million Faith Value points in one go!

Zhang Yi’s stored Faith Value shot past seven million, reaching over 7.7 million!

While his Clan members below were still in awe,

Zhang Yi opened his personal interface.

’Open my personal Divine Being interface!’

[Name: Zhang Yi]

[True Name: Oubaihai Vida]

[Divine Name: God of Nature]

[Divine Fire: Unignited]

[Divine Power: Fifth Transformation Demigod]

[Divine Position: Nature (0.8%), Elf (2%)]

[Divinity: 0]

[Faith Value: 7,742,485]

[Divine Arts: Compendium of Middle Class Divine Arts]

[Divine Artifact: Spear of Judgment (Upper Class Semi-Divine Artifact)]

[Divine Realm: Evolution] (Area: Dawn Forest 55%, Luqiu Ridge 30%, Green Grassland 10%, River of Nature 5%)

[Religion: Natural Sect]

[Believers: Elves, Dwarves]

Achievements: [Fanatical Faith] [Divine Kingdom Transfer]

Previously, in the Small Magic Plane, Zhang Yi had been hesitant. He was worried that after he spent a large amount of Faith Value to advance to a Sixth Transformation Demigod,

he would have no Faith Value left just when the Beast God or the God of the Sea decided to attack.

Therefore, to avoid that possibility,

Zhang Yi hadn’t dared to advance to a Sixth Transformation Demigod.

He simply kept all his excess Faith Value on hand so he could activate his Upper Class Semi-Divine Artifact at a moment’s notice.

But things were different now.

The Faith Value Zhang Yi had accumulated now far exceeded what he needed to advance to a Sixth Transformation Demigod.

Besides, Zhang Yi was currently inside his Divine Realm, and it was winter break.

He didn’t need to face any other enemies at this time.

So, with a single thought from Zhang Yi, his stored Faith Value began to plummet.

"7,000,000... 6,000,000... 5,000,000..."

"10... 20... 30..."

At the same time, the Divinity Zhang Yi was accumulating continued to rise.

"3,000,000... 2,000,000... 1,000,000..."

"50... 60... 70..."

As Zhang Yi’s Faith Value was almost completely consumed, leaving only a final one million points,

Zhang Yi finally gathered the 60 Divinity points needed to advance to a Sixth Transformation Demigod!

’Upgrade!’

With another thought from Zhang Yi, his Divine Realm began its sixth expansion!

[DING!]

[Host has been detected advancing to Sixth Transformation Demigod. The Divine Realm is expanding. Three options are provided for the host to choose from!]

[Option 1]: Increase the area of the original Divine Realm by one-tenth. The new area will have abundant Magic Resources.

[Option 2]: Increase the area of the original Divine Realm by two-tenths. The new area will have abundant Magic Ore Resources.

[Option 3]: Increase the area of the original Divine Realm by three-tenths. The new area will have abundant Magic Plant Resources.

"Oh!"

Zhang Yi noticed that this time, as he advanced to a Sixth Transformation Demigod, the three options for his Divine Realm’s expansion had changed slightly.

The ore resources from [Option 2] and the plant resources from [Option 3],

had now both become types of magic resources!

Although they were only singular types of magic resources, they were still far better than ordinary plant and ore resources!

However, Zhang Yi still chose [Option 1].

After all, [Option 1] offered the best value!

And as Zhang Yi made his choice,

a scene began to unfold throughout the Divine Realm—one that some of the Elf Clan had witnessed before,

but one that was entirely new to the majority of the Clan members recently brought over by Zhang Yi from the Small Magic Plane.

The Elves kneeling in prayer suddenly felt a tremor coming from the southeast of the Divine Realm.

But this tremor was different from the vibrations produced by a Forbidden Curse Spell.

RUMBLE—!

A low, continuous rumbling came from the southeast.

The older Clan members in the Divine Realm—

all the members of the Dwarf Clan and some from the Elf Clan—knew what was happening.

The Great God of Nature, having grown stronger, was once again creating new land for the Divine Realm!

The new Clan members from the Small Magic Plane, who had initially panicked at the tremor,

noticed that the other members of the Elf Clan were unfazed. After asking around, they too learned that this was the work of the Great God of Nature!

When all the Clan members looked up toward the southeast of the Divine Realm,

in a flat area closer to Luqiu Ridge than to the Dawn Forest,

a new plain had been created by Zhang Yi, with vast Magic Resources hidden within the nascent land.

The number of Clan members in his Divine Realm had swelled far beyond its previous population.

Although the realm was still large enough, Zhang Yi had to plan for the future and increase the area for cultivation.

After all, "an army marches on its stomach!"

His Clan couldn’t go without food and water!

Sensing the increased concentration of magic in the southeast of the Divine Realm,

all the Clan members were pleasantly surprised!

As the earth’s vibrations and the rumbling gradually ceased,

the intangible barrier of the Divine Realm in the Subspace expanded outward once more.

A Magic Fountain appeared again, its waters flowing across the new plain.

Some Magic Resources were exposed on the surface, while others were hidden deep within the earth.

On the side near Luqiu Ridge, newly risen peaks joined the existing ridge to form a barrier of overlapping mountains.

Winding rivers crisscrossed the plain.

But the benefits of this Divine Realm expansion didn’t stop there.

"A miracle!"

"The Great God of Nature has bestowed another miracle upon us!"

Some of the older members of the Elf Clan murmured excitedly to themselves.

This was true even for a particularly lucky Elf Soldier, who had once stood on the mountains of Luqiu Ridge and personally witnessed the Divine Realm’s expansion.

It was for this very reason that every time he sensed the realm grow, he was once again left in awe of the Great God of Nature’s immense Divine Power!

He couldn’t imagine what kind of Divine Power it took to create new land from the void!

As for the new members of the Elf Clan from the Small Magic Plane, this was the first time they had witnessed such a Genesis-like event!

Their reverence for the Elf God, the Great God of Nature, rose to a new height!

’So this is how powerful the God of Nature we believe in is,’ they thought.

’Not only can He create the Natural Divine Kingdom—a final resting place for the souls of the faithful—’

’He can also create land from the void, opening up a better living space for His Clan!’

Elf High Priest Shamiel also seized the opportunity to guide these "lost lambs" and strengthen their faith!

They heard the voice of Elf High Priest Shamiel, filled with piety and excitement, ring out:

"Behold! In response to the offerings from His Clan, the Great God of Nature has not only provided us with an opportunity for advancement but has also expanded our living space!"

"Other than fighting for the Great God of Nature and dedicating everything to Him,

we have nothing!"

"..."

The Faith Value that Zhang Yi had just lost by advancing to a Sixth Transformation Demigod recovered slightly!

And tonight, after experiencing several shocks,

the Clan members who had moved to the Divine Realm were finally at ease.

All their fear and anxiety vanished under the guidance of Elf High Priest Shamiel and the miracle bestowed by the Great God of Nature.

In its place was a vision of living a good life in the Divine Realm, under the protection of the God of Nature!

Enthroned high in his Divine Kingdom, Zhang Yi sensed the divine souls of deceased Clan members beginning to gather within.

Looking down again at the many Clan members praying below,

a covert Oracle was transmitted into the mind of Elf High Priest Shamiel.

"It is time to establish the National Religion—the Natural Sect!

"Reduce conflict between the different Clans and improve their ability to cooperate!"

"..."

"Yes, Great God of Nature!"

Shamiel, the devout Holy Believer, responded.

...

"Disconnecting from Divine Domain Connection Pod..."

PSSSH!

As a cloud of white mist dissipated, Zhang Yi emerged from the Divine Domain Connection Pod.

Sitting in his chair and resting for a moment, Zhang Yi began to think about what he needed to do next.

’The school reward from the final exam this time has already been stored in the Divine Realm,

but the Divine Domain Card can’t be loaded yet. I’ll have to wait until next month.’

’Today is January 25th. The New Year is in seven days.’

’The New Year falls on the first day of the second month, February 1st.’

’And the day after tomorrow, January 27th, is my birthday.’

’After my birthday, on January 28th, Grandpa is coming back!’

Zhang Yi was really looking forward to his grandpa’s return.

After all, when he was a child, his grandpa always gave him the most gift money for the New Year!

At the same time, Zhang Yi remembered the three Divine Positions he had just obtained in his Divine Realm.

Then, Zhang Yi thought of Lin Aoxue.

’The Moon Divine Position would suit her well.’

’If the contract Lin Aoxue submits is to my liking, I might consider giving it to her.’

After all, a contract that could satisfy him wouldn’t be easy to come by.

’After this, Lin Aoxue will never have another chance to betray me!’

’And that favor from Hong Tianyi can finally be used!’
