Ascend!
The indigenous people there call God the Ascended One!
This was something Chu Yang only learned after receiving a portion of the data from the Sacred Knowledge Treasury.
The term "Ascension" really startled him at the time, and then piqued his interest.
But he soon discovered that these so-called ascendants, like Sorey, possessed great power and special characteristics, but in a sense, they were all paper tigers.
Sori's ability to fuse stars and then explode is a gift; otherwise, he is weak and helpless, and his greatest reliance is his atomic fusion technology.
He doesn't have super genes, or even a physical body, so Chu Yang can't obtain his genes or bloodline factors, and therefore can't replicate his power.
So Chu Yang directly took control of Sori, wanting to make this guy work for him.
But the Woma civilization is different. Their so-called ascension is actually a kind of evolution, and it is an evolution on a national scale!
The root of evolution is not super genes, but seems to be... faith!
It must be said that those who were able to participate in the Super God Academy back then were either extreme madmen or genius scholars.
Morgana and Karl are the former, while Kai'Sa and Zilean are the latter.
The scholar from the Woma civilization was somewhere in between.
In the Woma civilization, the Woma royal family holds absolute prestige and an unshakeable position, but it is more like a religious organization, with all the people of the Woma civilization being believers.
That scholar cast a wide net, releasing countless genes into the Walmart civilization. These genes are hidden at the very bottom of the genetic chain of every Walmart person.
When someone gathers enough faith, or when their own faith reaches a certain level, they can unlock their genetic potential and become a god in one fell swoop!
This is a process of instant advancement, but the drawback is that the upper limit is not high; at most, it can only create three generations of divine bodies.
Moreover, the strength of an "ascended one" depends on the power of faith they possess at the time of ascension, which leads to a wide range of divine strength among the Woma civilization.
This is an unchangeable evolution, with no room for growth.
For example, if an ascendant has a first-generation divine body after ascension, then he can never upgrade to a second-generation divine body.
Due to the unique nature of his genes, even Karl, who possessed the Great Clock, could not change this situation.
Only the Woma Emperors of each generation could break free of their shackles and undergo a unique transformation, upgrading to the third-generation divine body in one fell swoop.
Chu Yang was very interested in this ascension system. If he could crack the key technologies within it, he could once again raise the upper limit of the ultimate gene!
The Woma people, with their faint super genes mixed at the very bottom of the gene chain, can ascend to the highest level of third-generation gods with the help of faith.
Chu Yang, who already started with the ultimate gene, would undoubtedly experience a significant boost in strength if he could "ascend."
But to understand the underlying principles, we first need to determine what is so special about the so-called power of faith.
Therefore, Chu Yang sent Hu to create chaos and damage the prestige of the Woma royal family.
As prestige decreases, so too will the power of faith, and the resulting impact will be readily apparent.
After the four beast gods left, Chu Yang looked at Hong Lei.
This was the first beast god he created, which stayed by his side the longest and was also the most powerful.
Although Sun Honglei's fighting power is not as good as Monkey King's, he can definitely be called a powerful weapon.
With its peak third-generation beast form and the stellar-driven power brought by the Sunlight gene, it's practically a walking, inexhaustible energy source.
He alone can support the energy consumption of a huge fleet!
"Come on! Let's go see an old friend!"
Chu Yang patted Hong Lei on the shoulder and led him directly into the wormhole.
.........
A bar in Juxia City.
In the corner seat sat a beautiful woman with a stunning figure, wearing a leather trench coat, tall boots, and black stockings that covered her long legs.
Especially her signature fiery red lips, which attracted the attention of all the men in the bar.
Also attracting attention was a couple who had just entered the bar.
The person walking in front was a young man, handsome and dashing, with an extraordinary air about him. Many girls along the way were giving him flirtatious glances.
The burly man behind him was even more eye-catching, because this guy was dressed in a black suit and wearing sunglasses, looking just like the Terminator, and he also had short red hair, making him look extremely unconventional.
Many people were a little puzzled that someone would wear such an outfit to a bar.
He appeared to be the young man's bodyguard, but bringing a bodyguard to a bar, especially a low-end one, was even more puzzling.
Shouldn't people of this caliber frequent nightclubs?
After entering the bar with a clear goal in mind, Chu Yang went straight to a corner and plopped down next to a girl with bright red lips, asking with a smile, "Beautiful lady, all alone?"
Many people who witnessed this scene looked on with mockery.
This wasn't the first man to approach her, but the previous ones had all ended up looking foolish because the woman was so blunt.
One of the men, enraged, tried to attack, but the woman easily subdued him with one hand.
Unexpectedly, the woman suddenly smiled and asked, "What? Trying to pick me up?"
Chu Yang curled his lip and said, "I don't want that brat Yaowen to come after me."
Lena shrugged, picked up her glass and downed it in one gulp, then asked, "What do you want?"
"Say it here?" Chu Yang asked back.
Lena thought for a moment and decided that this was indeed not the place to talk, so she stood up and said, "Let's go! Don't keep me from going to my next event!"
And so, amidst countless astonished gazes, Chu Yang swaggered out of the bar with Reina.
That night, the bar's sales hit a new record high, with the vast majority of men completely drunk.
They couldn't figure out where they went wrong.
Aside from being a bit handsome and seemingly a rich young master, what makes this guy better than me?
They managed to win over a goddess of that caliber with just a few words, and they didn't even want to imagine what would happen next.
Is this what money power is?
…………
At the top of the Pearl Tower, Chu Yang and Lena leaned against the mast, while Hong Lei stood ramrod straight not far away, looking exactly like a bodyguard.
Looking down at the bustling city below, Chu Yang asked softly, "You're supposed to be a god of the Blazing Sun Civilization, why are you acting like a heartbroken little girl?"
Lena was silent for a moment, then said, "There is a Chinese saying: 'Don't advise others to be kind if you haven't experienced their suffering.'"
Chu Yang knew that the reason Lena was so depressed, and even went to Shanghai to drown her sorrows, was because the dream had had a great impact on her.
That's a dream world on a divine level; being in it is no different from reality.
But the problem is...
Lena is a goddess; no matter how much alcohol she drinks, she can't possibly get drunk!
Chu Yang stopped beating around the bush and went straight to the point: "Come with me to Lieyang Star. I need to talk to Pan Zhen about something, and I need your involvement."
Lena glanced at him, shook her head, and said, "No! Can't you see I'm feeling melancholy?"
"I know you're powerful. You could easily crush me with one hand, or even hang the entire Lieyang Star up and beat me up."
"But I said I'm not going, and that's final. Even if you push me off this cliff, I won't agree!"
Lena is extremely single, and now whenever she thinks about what happened in her dream, she wishes she could live in a different universe.
Actually, she didn't experience anything too tragic in her dream, but many of her experiences were just too shameful...
Most importantly, when she was thrown back to Earth, she was still unable to escape from the dream, and many of her ugly moments were witnessed by the rookie soldiers of the Super Soldier Corps.
Lena simply couldn't bear the blow and didn't even want to face Cheng Yaowen, so she simply ran away.
“I obtained the complete dream genetic code from Morgana. You should know very well that all of Black Wind’s memories are contained in the genetic code.”
Chu Yang said lightly, "If I were to materialize my memories of you, and let Yaowen and the Super Soldier Squad..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lena stood up straight with a serious expression and said solemnly, "No need to say anything more! Instructor! I'll go to Lieyang Star with you!"
"You are my instructor, and your orders are military orders!"
Seeing her righteous and indignant demeanor, Chu Yang shook his head and chuckled, then gestured teasingly downwards with his lip, "You don't need me to push you down, do you?"
Lena's eye twitched, and she turned her head away as if she hadn't heard anything.
…………
The Sun Star, the Royal Palace.
Looking at the towering Heavenly Dao Tower outside, Chu Yang clicked his tongue and said, "Is this the highest technology of your Blazing Sun Civilization? Are you interested in selling it to me?"
Lena was yawning not far away, looking completely nonchalant.
Pan Zhen's face darkened. The man behind him, wielding a halberd, raised his eyebrows and coldly shouted, "Insolence!"
Pan Zhen's eyelids twitched, and he quickly glared at the man, signaling him not to say anything more.
Chu Yang tilted his head and looked at him, then asked with a smile, "You are Xuan Tianji?"
Xuan Tianji slammed his halberd heavily on the ground, puffed out his chest, and declared, "I am none other than the Fiery Sun Star Tiger Fiend Heavenly Protector!"
