First-Year Internship—And You Went to Site 749 to Contain Monsters?!

Shen Lingfeng’s raised arm trembled slightly. He was never a person of great virtue or great wickedness, nor was he a resolute one. Lu Ding’s words meant that if he nodded, he would be stepping onto a path of no return!

But if he didn’t take that path...

He glanced at Lu Ding.

Under their exchanged gaze, a smile spread across Lu Ding’s face as he casually introduced the rod in his hand. ”This thing is called the Four Fiends God Pillar.”

”It is exclusively used for wiping out entire clans, severing kinship, and cutting off all descendants.”

”Anyone attacked by it will cause their blood relatives to suffer calamity, unless they have the strength and fortune to surpass the user of the Four Fiends God Pillar, which means surpassing me.”

”Otherwise, not a single person within their bloodline will be spared!”

Hearing these words, Shen Lingfeng no longer dared to hesitate.

He bowed deeply and solemnly. ”Shen Lingfeng will never disappoint the Grand Duke Lu’s expectations!!!”Lu Ding nodded. ”Very good. You have shown me your intelligent side. Remember to keep it that way.”

Meanwhile, Lu Ding was collecting spirit stones.

Suddenly.

Without any warning, the Spiritual Energy within his body inexplicably turned restless. A sacred, pure force merged with the God Ascension Sixth Level Son of Heaven rules he had previously established.

Lu Ding stood rooted in place.

An immense aura fluctuation suddenly erupted from his body!!!

In the blink of an eye.

A boundless divine radiance burst through the heavens.

Piercing straight through the clouds.

The terrifying energy fluctuations shook heaven and earth, illuminating the world, and sending Lu Ding’s cultivation realm rocketing to God Ascension Sixth Level.

Feeling the refined surge of power.

Lu Ding understood in his heart: ”So, things have stabilized within the Great Han?”

But he also had questions.

There was another force within him that did not participate in major decisions, did not alter him, and yet was completely at his disposal. It mixed within his Spiritual Energy while remaining layered separately from it. What was it?

He didn’t understand.

He took out the jade slip used to contact Yan Feifan and sent a message.

[Has something happened on the Great Han side?]

Meanwhile.

On the other side.

Great Han, new city, inside the office. Wen Shang, who had escorted the experts here last time, was currently in the office together with Yan Feifan.

”So? So? Has the Grand Guardian sent any message?”

Yan Feifan glanced at him and nodded. ”It’s here.”

Wen Shang said excitedly, ”Quick, quick, Assistant Investigator Yan, tell the Grand Guardian the truth and ask him if he’s satisfied.”

Yan Feifan sent a message.

[Brother Lu, congratulations. You are now the Great Han’s only nationally sacrificed deity. This is the surprise Captain Wen said was prepared for you last time.]

On the other end, Lu Ding received the message: [Nationally sacrificed deity?]

Yan Feifan sent a message revealing everything.

[A while ago, during Elder Shui’s external campaign, he discovered a lost divine temple and found a secret method relic bone inside, inscribed with obscure divine script that recorded a powerful technique.]

[Later, Elder Shui unintentionally visited the core of the Hundred-Year Ten Thousand Immortals Plan to soothe the troops’ morale.]

[Inside, he inadvertently translated this technique, and it turned out to be a true method of feeding deities.]

[It allows the nation’s collective strength to connect with the path of fortune, raising a true god that can reach the First Circle. It also uncovered a shocking secret.]

[Long ago, on the lands of the Second Circle, there existed a great unified feudal state with the dynastic title of Zhou.]

[They controlled the entire Second Circle. When they sought upward development and tried to reach the First Circle, they were rejected by the First Circle’s indigenous powers. Forced to retreat to the Second Circle, they poured their national strength into creating this method of feeding a true god.]

[They plotted to use the power of a true god to defy the heavens and invade the First Circle, then have the true god receive Great Zhou, striking from within and without.]

[But in the end, Great Zhou’s national fortune declined because of that war. Their momentum was broken, Zhou split apart, and many nations were born. Only under the wheels of history and the passage of time did the current situation of the Second Circle gradually take shape.]

[From fragments of information, we learned that Great Zhou’s power was immense at the time. Just counting their gods alone, they numbered in the hundreds or thousands.]

[As for Great Zhou’s final outcome, we don’t know. Whether they truly ascended or simply vanished, we have no way of knowing.]

[However, the secret technique was personally verified by Elder Shui and others, proving the path is viable and greatly beneficial. Elder Shui, afraid you might have concerns, even swore a Heavenly Dao oath, guaranteeing that this technique has absolutely no flaws or hidden dangers.]

[Only then did the Great Han side dare to present this as a surprise. In the First Circle, at our original location, you were enshrined as the nationally sacrificed deity, experimentally using the Third Circle to nurture you.]

[And it’s not just the Great Han nurturing you. White Eagle, Tai Island, the Bear Country, and other nations all unanimously approved supporting you.]

[The difference lies in status. We are the close kin, they are the distant cousins. At the annual sacrificial rites, the Great Han will take the lead, and the entire Third Circle will come to pay tribute.]

[As for this power, Elder Shui said it can mutually complement your identity as the Son of Heaven, but it will not interfere with your own power. It’s like adding a bracket on top of your base combat power of one hundred, like equipment. Inside that bracket is a boost of ten plus, dozens plus, or even more or less. It can be equipped or removed at will.]

[As for its future usage, Elder Shui said he has some leads. You don’t need to worry. The Great Han will marshal the nation’s full strength to elevate you. Elder Shui guarantees the power will be enough to punch a hole through the heavens.]

Reading these messages, Lu Ding was filled with shock.

The Great Han, without his knowledge, had prepared such an enormous surprise for him.

They had poured national strength into treating him like a cultivation game, making him a nationally sacrificed deity.

This honor and the tangible benefits came far too high.

No wonder Lu Ding said the breakthrough to God Ascension Sixth Level caused a commotion he couldn’t suppress.

In the past, every breakthrough he could suppress. His specialty was breaking through quietly, leaving others behind on outdated information, and then catching them off guard with his new realm and new strength to hit them hard!!!

But this time, he couldn’t suppress it no matter what.

From God Ascension Fifth Level to Sixth Level, his combat power skyrocketed!!!

It wasn’t just doubling, not even squaring, but cubing. The absurdity was off the charts.

Even Lu Ding himself couldn’t imagine how he would grow when he already had such terrifying mechanics and stats, now multiplied by a cubic increase.

Just how far would he grow in the future?

Meanwhile.

Yan Feifan, while speaking, glanced at the proud Wen Shang beside him. He suddenly spoke up. ”Chief, could you give me a little space?”

”Brother Lu previously gave me instructions about other matters. I need to...”

Wen Shang smiled. ”Go ahead, go ahead. I’ll step out now. Since the surprise has been delivered to the Grand Guardian, I’ll head off to work. Assistant Investigator Yan, you get busy too.”

Wen Shang walked out.

The smile on Yan Feifan’s face instantly faded.

He immediately sent Lu Ding another message.

[Brother Lu, perhaps you could come over. I’m in the office. I think there are some things I should discuss with you.]
