God's Path: I Can Create A Lot Of Cheats Through Mutation Chapter 156 – The Forest God’s Statue

Of course.

After the mutation, the [Ancient Divine Body]’s absorption range included the entire world. He should’ve expected that.

No matter where he was, as long as someone sincerely praised him, he would gain one Longevity Factor point.

‘That’s great. This way, I don’t have to specially ask others to praise me.’

Before his mutation, he could only absorb it when someone beside him was praising him. Now, it ignored the distance between time and space, and the difficulty of accumulating these points was hundreds of times easier than before.

Ling Yi couldn’t help but reveal a bright smile at the thought.

Now, he looked at his five dimensions again…

Strength 338, mana 1,300, agility 430, endurance 253, physique 463.

“Yes, yes! I almost have no shortcomings.”

“What?” Yunji, who was standing aside, looked confused.

“Oh.” Ling Yi raised his head and looked at her, almost forgetting that she was there. He gave her a smile. “I just learned a new Skill. Now, all my attributes have been increased.”

“I see. That’s not bad.” Yunji nodded and said with certainty, “Skills that increase attributes are not common. Skills that increase all attributes… To be honest, I’ve never heard of it before.”

She crossed her arms and put a finger against her lips in thought, “I remember that according to the Summary of various attribute-increasing Skills book, one Star can increase 10 attribute points, a two Star can increase by 30 attribute points, a three Star can increase by 60 attribute points… 8 Star 360 attribute points, 9 Star 450 attribute points, 10 Star 550 attribute points.”

“How many stars is that Skill of yours? You just need to say your Star-grade and I’ll know how much it has increased.”

“10 Stars.”

“10… 10 stars?”

If Yunji didn’t know Ling Yi’s true identity, she would have thought he was joking.

However, it was precisely because she knew that he was “01” that she was not too surprised.

But it still somehow surprised her anyway.

‘The 10 Star Skill that he had fused earlier had made a world announcement, and now he has fused another 10 Star Skill… It doesn’t seem like a coincidence…’

Although she was confused, Yunji didn’t have time to think about it. She smiled and said, “Then all your attributes have increased by about 110, right?”

“And if that Skill of yours has other effects, you should get an increase of 100 points in all your attributes. Am I right?”

“Yes, it’s indeed very accurate.” Ling Yi smiled and nodded.

Before the mutation, the Skill’s first effect was to increase all attributes by 100 points.

Now, it has doubled out of thin air, all thanks to the Super Mutation System.

After that, the two of them briefly talked about their plans and decided to head toward the temple together.

…

“Hm… It just crossed my mind… How many times have you saved “damsels” in distress?”

Yunji suddenly asked as she watched Ling Yi save a beautiful woman from a monster.

“Huh?”

Hearing this, Ling Yi stopped in his tracks. While he enjoyed the admiring and grateful gazes of the beautiful woman on the ground, he touched his chin and said with uncertainty.

“It depends on what kind of ‘distress’ you mean. If you’re talking about saving a woman from monsters specifically, then I think it’s around 70 or 80 times. Now that you think about it, I think I saved more of them in the main world these days.”

“What about the men?”

“More than that, more than a hundred times.”

Yunji nodded, “Normally, a player who has only entered God’s Path for more than ten days should only have a total of 20 or 30 times. Your number is considered very high. Are you going to help every time someone is in trouble?”

“More or less…”

“I say… It’s no wonder that some people are so respectful to you.”

As they spoke, the two of them set off again.

It didn’t take long for them to fly up the mountain and land on the platform in front of the temple.

This huge platform, which was covered with green marble stones and covered an area of more than 300,000 square meters, was laid in front of the steps leading to the shrine. There were four huge stone pillars of 100 m in height on both sides.

The midday sun shone down, making the place bright and comfortable.

Many players who had obtained a sufficient harvest would set up a stall here, either trading items with other players or just outright selling them.

Here, Ling Yi and Yunji went their separate ways.

The latter wanted to visit the peddlers, while the former wanted to take a look inside the temple.

“Be careful.”

“Of course.”

After bidding farewell to Yunji, Ling Yi gently leaped over the stairs and walked straight into the Divine Hall.

The hall’s door was about fifty meters wide, very grand and spacious.

As soon as he entered, he saw a statue of a Forest Deer about 30 meters tall in the center of the hall.

The Forest Deer wasn’t a monster, but a type of sprite. This majestic creature was about thirty meters tall, which was depicted well by this statue.

At that moment, hundreds of players had gathered around the statue. Some of them had their hands clasped together as if they were praying, some were looking left and right with shifty eyes, and some were touching the statue as they mumbled a few words.

“I beg for the protection of the Forest God, so that my children can live a peaceful life.”

“Forest God, Oh Forest God, can you guide me to the secret treasure in this temple?”

“Do you guys think there’s something inside the statue? Do you want to try and break it?”

“…”

Hearing their conversation, Ling Yi couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.

He raised his head to look at the statue and subconsciously activated his [Eye of Truth].

[A statue named the Forest God]: Offer an item to it and tell it what you want. The God of the Forest will give you an item of the same grade as your wish. Each person can only use it once a month.

“So that’s how the statue is used…”

He looked down at the people who were using it like a Buddha statue to pray for peace and treasure, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

When he entered, he was also influenced by these people. He had the preconceived notion that the statue was used to pray for peace and was essentially a useless ornament.

He did not expect…

Shaking his head, Ling Yi quickly opened his bag to see if there was anything he could replace.

Soon, he found a Grade-B item called [Telescopic Glasses].

This was one of the items that the Sword Saint had given him for tipping them information about Sacred Gate.

But since he had a large range of perception thanks to [Aeolus’ Call], the glasses were completely useless to him.

Now, he could use this Skill for a little experiment.

A middle-aged man, who was standing not far away from him, hesitated when he watched Ling Yi take out the glasses from his inventory. He had heard what the young boy was muttering and in the end, his curiosity won over as he walked over to ask, “Little brother, do you know how to use this statue?”

Beside the middle-aged man was a tall woman with long legs. When she saw Ling Yi, she was stunned for a moment before joy appeared on her face. “Brother Ling?”

The woman was wearing a red dress and had a seductive face, which attracted the attention of many men around her.

When they saw her talking to another man, they immediately turned their heads and looked in his direction.

Ling Yi looked at the two people who were walking over. He didn’t know the middle-aged man, but he did know the woman beside him.

“Sister Yun?”

This woman was Yun Zixiao, his current Support Partner.

During the two-person Storm Desert trial, they both had settled their suspicions of each other and let each other by familiar nicknames.

He called her Sister Yun, but she called him Brother Ling.

Of course, neither of them knew the other’s real name, but they were familiar with each other’s personalities.

“You know each other?” The middle-aged man looked at his daughter in surprise. Didn’t this daughter of his never leave their house? She even secretly got to know a man around her age without his knowledge?

“Yes He’s my Support Partner.”

“Oh? It’s the one with the S—” The middle-aged man immediately stopped talking.

He turned to look at Ling Yi, stretched out his hand, and smiled kindly, “Hello, my name is Yun He. I am the current head of Emperor Star Financial Group.”
