Chapter 776: Expiration Date

Translator: La0o9 Editor: La0o9

On the day of the God of Frost and Chill’s coronation, the Sky Beyond Heaven was completely sealed off, forbidding entry to any outsider.

The coronation was secretive and divine.

No one objected to it.

Everything went as smoothly as it could be.

Following the God of Frost and Chill’s request from before, the Golden Flame Divinity put the Crown of Gods on him with his own hands.

Following that, 16 Divinities jointly performed a secret technique in front of the Grand Divine Palace, a summoning technique.

After several dozen seconds of chanting, the Divine King Scepter appeared from the void of space and hovered in front of the God of Frost and Chill.

——-only on the day of a new Divine King’s coronation would the Divine King Scepter appear and grant the new Divine King one use of it.

This was a pure-white long scepter that was heavier than it appeared as if there was something flowing inside.

—–at the same time, it was said that immense mystical power flowed inside the scepter, giving the false impression that it wasn’t completely solid.

The God of Frost and Chill now wore the crown on his head and raised the Divine King Scepter to the sky.

The Divinities all praised and blessed him.

The new Divine King briefly paused.

He was reading the lines of glowing text flowing across the War God UI.

[Item: Memory Storehouse Secret Key]

[Grade: Unique item]

[War God Skills: None]

[Doomsday Chronicles: None]

[Note: This was the exclusive secret key of a certain standard storage facility—— from the Bygone Era]

Gu Qing Shan took a deep breath, turned around and headed for the inside of the Grand Divine Palace.

He must now enter the vault of inheritance to receive the true heritage of the Divine race, then once again return to the Grand Divine Palace to announce to all of the Divinities that he had learnt the secret of the race, and vow to protect the Divine race as a whole.

Only then will the coronation ceremony be fully complete and he would truly become the Divine King.

Gu Qing Shan walked along the corridor of the palace and headed straight to the entrance of the inheritance vault.

This was a huge metal door with countless mysterious runes engraved all around it. You’d feel a slight prickly feeling from your soul vessel by just looking at it.

Any attempted attacks on the metal door would be met with intense counterattacks.

The assailant would be met with a soul vessel attack that would directly destroy their psyche and turn them into a complete idiot.

16 fully-armed Divine Guards stood in front of the metal door.

Following the required protocol, Gu Qing Shan stepped in front of them and questioned with a raised voice: “Loyal guards of the Divine race, servants willing to give up their lives to protect our secret, why have you stood in my path of searching for the truth?”

The 16 guards spoke in unison: 「「「 If you are not the Divine King, please turn back, because you are not qualified to learn the ultimate secret of the Divine race 」」」

At this point, Gu Qing Shan displayed the Divine King Scepter to the 16 guards.

As the Divine Guards saw the Divine King Scepter, they respectfully bowed to the new Divine King and stepped to either side of the gate, giving way.

Gu Qing Shan quickly came in front of the large metal door.

Apparently sensing the Divine King Scepter, the runes of the door lit up.

They gathered at the center of the metal door and formed a swirling spiral.

Gu Qing Shan raised the Divine King Scepter and pushed it into the black hole at the center of the runes.

For a brief moment, a flash of light came from above and shined on Gu Qing Shan’s body.

He disappeared from in front of the metal door.

A second later, he reappeared inside the inheritance vault.

The Divine King Scepter had also gone through the metal door, floating lightly in front of him.

Gu Qing Shan began to observe his surroundings.

The entire floor of the inheritance vault was made of the same metallic material of the door.

The vault itself was about several hundred square meters, completely empty without anything here.

Gu Qing Shan waited for a few moments.

Nothing appeared, nothing happened.

The previous Divine King died too suddenly to give him any experience——– although, even if the previous Divine King was still alive, he wouldn’t be telling Gu Qing Shan how to use the vault.

Gu Qing Shan thought for a few moments and grabbed the Divine King Scepter floating in the air.

Almost immediately, a bright glow began to emit from the top of the Divine King Scepter.

A cold, mechanical voice came from the Divine King Scepter:

[Storage facility detected, please put me into contact with the carrier]

Carrier…

Gu Qing Shan glanced at the metal floor.

As it sensed the glow of the scepter, numerous runes appeared on the surface of the metal.

After some thought, Gu Qing Shan lightly put the scepter on the metal floor.

As soon as they touched, layers upon layers of metal rose up from below and tightly enveloped the scepter.

The mechanical voice resounded again: [You have the authority to retrieve the items stored here. Authority level: random retrieval]

[You have the authority to observe the record stored in the storage]

[Please choose among item retrieval or record observation, according to your authority, you may only choose one]

Gu Qing Shan froze.

I can only choose from obtaining a heritage item or observing a record?

Which means I can only choose to take something to increase my card grade, or choose to learn one of the records stored here.

If I increase my card grade and obtain the second Lapis card, I will have officially become a Lapis-grade card.

Lapis was a huge upgrade from being Grey.

Little Dusk’s grade dropped to being Lapis after she escaped her seal, but Gu Qing Shan was still impressed by her fighting prowess.

——–cards of this grade have a lot of utility, so as long as Gu Qing Shan successfully upgrades himself, he’ll be able to slowly construct a card deck for himself.

But what is the stored record?

Could it be the Divine race’s ultimate secret?

——-even so, no matter what their secret is, I will have to fight the Divine race one day and wipe them all out.

So there’s no real reason to learn their secret.

But then…

What if the record is an extremely crucial piece of information?

Gu Qing Shan scowled, a bit indecisive.

It was rare to see him being this hesitant.

After careful consideration, Gu Qing Shan chose to observe the stored record.

After my coronation is over, the Divine King Scepter will disappear, only showing up again when the next Divine King is crowned.

——-I’ll be able to increase my card grade sooner or later.

But I’m not always going to be able to obtain this secret.

Let’s choose to observe the record.

That was the decision Gu Qing Shan made.

When he was about to speak, a line of glowing text quickly scrolled past the War God UI.

[If you don’t want to regret this, put your hands on the scepter]

Gu Qing Shan froze, then suddenly realized something.

He quickly put both hands on the Divine King Scepter.

The War God System’s voice appeared: [Remember, you owe me some Soul Points] historical

“How much?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

[When you have enough Soul Points, I’ll tell you] the System replied.

Almost immediately, the Divine King Scepter began to tremble.

More blinking runes appeared all over the metal floor.

Lines of notification popped up on the War God UI:

[Currently dismantling storage facility runes]

[Obtained backdoor key rune construction]

[In consideration of the storage facility’s alarm system and lowest instant-kill trigger, reconstructing scepter’s runes to independently define this occasion’s access authority]

[Access authority changed]

[Current access authority: Obtain a stored record, at the same time retrieving the most precious item within the storage]

All the notifications then disappeared.

Inside the inheritance vault, countless sparks of light manifested from the ground and formed a video screen in the air.

A person appeared in the recorded footage.

He spoke: [In summary, since we’re all going to depart, I will leave these personal Combat-type Soul Artifacts behind. After all, bringing too many useless items to the other side is also a burden]

He slightly shifted away from the center of the screen.

Behind him, various balls of light were floating in the sky.

The man happily explained: [These are the results of my personal experiment. A combination of technology and magic combined with a bit of derived chaotic Elemental power. They’re not highly useful, but they were a hugely interesting research]

[The only point to be wary of is that these things might have an expiration date, so I don’t want to bring them to the other side of the door]

He lightly tapped one of the balls of light.

The ball of light then turned into a miniature humanoid creature clad in light.

Between this humanoid creature’s eyebrows, a flaming light silently burnt.
