I will eventually become a divine being through accumulating constantly

At that moment, the phone lying by the side began to vibrate.

Xue Jing walked over, picked up the phone, and after unlocking it with his fingerprint, took a look.

It was a message from Wu Youqing.

Xue Jing's spirit was immediately uplifted.

Could it be that there was a job?

Divinity was always a scarce resource for him.

During these days of rest and recuperation, he and Ning Fengwan were practicing the fusion of Bastet's power every day.

But compared to the first time, the effect was somewhat minimal.

Although Ning Fengwan would tremble uncontrollably each time, the platinum radiance emanating from the tail ring seemed somewhat dim. After each session, it only slightly enhanced Ning Fengwan's body and did not grant any other Heretic God's power similar to that of 'Serpent Slayer Spearhead'.

The divinity absorbed each time ranged from several points to a dozen or more.

Though it was a case of small gains adding up, if he continued like this, the cumulative reward over a long period could be quite considerable.

But after all, it was not as exciting as the profits from a Divine Relic, which provided several hundred points of divinity all at once.

Xue Jing quickly opened the message to check it.

[Wu Youqing: [picture]]

"What is this?"

Xue Jing opened the picture and was somewhat puzzled.

It was a photo, and in the photo was a... man?

Xue Jing was not quite sure.

The angle of the photo was very close, making it difficult to see the surroundings, but he could vaguely discern from the traces around that it must be on a fighting ring.

A youth dressed in a men's black feather robe, with long black hair reaching down to his waist, had delicate features and an androgynous beauty. He was standing on the fighting ring, bowing slightly to the opposite side.

In his hands, he held a very ancient-looking beautiful long blade. The handle and sheath were full of faded, oxidized marks, imbuing a sense of historic weight.

[Xue Jing: What's this, is this a Far Eastern person?]

Based on the clothing and posture of the person in the photo, characteristic of the island nation, Xue Jing asked the question.

[Wu Youqing: Correct.]

[Wu Youqing: He is the third heir of one of the Six Major Zaibatsu from the Far East, the Otogi family, Suzuka Otogi.]

[Xue Jing: Hm? Sounds impressive.]

[Wu Youqing: He is impressive, but that's not the point. Look at the blade he's holding.]

[Wu Youqing: This is GOD-519·The Blade That Never Dulls...]

Xue Jing raised his eyebrow.

He immediately applied for a video call with Wu Youqing.

The other party did not decline and connected quickly.

In the video feed, Wu Youqing's eternally calm and beautiful face appeared.

She wore a pink chiffon blouse with an elegant bow at the collar, her hair tied back in her usual high ponytail. Her natural face looked nothing like a rich tycoon but rather the prettiest girl in class—clean and pure.

The front camera also captured Xue Jing's face, and he started with a smile:

"BOSS, what's this about? Is it a new containment mission?"

In the video, Wu Youqing shook her head and spoke:

"GOD-519 is not in a state of loss of control; there is no need for containment."

Xue Jing asked with curiosity, "Then why?"

Wu Youqing did not answer directly, but instead said:

"GOD-519·The Blade That Never Dulls, its ability is very simple, named [Eternal Indestructibility]."

Xue Jing inquired with a raised eyebrow: "Is it the kind of [Eternal Indestructibility] I am thinking of?"

Wu Youqing nodded: "It is exactly as the name implies, eternal indomitability... There was an experiment conducted where someone exposed the blade of GOD-519 directly to temperatures exceeding ten million degrees using a special method. It continued for ten minutes."

"The result was that not even a single particle on the blade showed any change."

Ten million degrees... That's already the temperature of a nuclear explosion, and it was sustained.

Xue Jing exclaimed, "Truly a Divine Relic... Utterly defying common sense and physics."

"So, what do you need me to do, BOSS?"

Xue Jing asked.

On the screen, Wu Youqing set her phone down on the table, seemingly leaning it against a support to stand it up.

She leaned back in the wooden chair, crossed her arms over her chest, pushing up the European Cup, shook her head, and whispered softly:

"It's not about what I need you to do; it's whether you yourself want to do something. This time I'm merely providing you with information."

Xue Jing cocked his head, puzzled, and said, "What do you mean?"

Wu Youqing didn't keep him in suspense any longer, but said directly:

"GOD-519, possesses the feature of 'Choosing a Master'."

"When the holder of GOD-519 inwardly admits defeat to another person, the ownership of GOD-519 will transfer to the victor."

Xue Jing understood her meaning and said, enlightened, "You mean..."

"You like Divine Relics, don't you?" Wu Youqing said with a smile, twirling a lock of her high ponytail with a finger.

"Otogirusu has practiced martial arts since childhood and is obsessed with them... He admires the Old Martial Arts' pursuit of the true human limit with a pure, natural body, and he has crossed the sea to Zhuxia specifically to participate in the U19 no-holds-barred fighting tournament."

"Normally, making a move on him would lead to a very serious diplomatic incident, but now it's different."

"As long as you defeat him in the U19...it's a perfect and honorable opportunity to take GOD-519 from him."

"Of course, I'm just simply providing you this information; what you do with it is up to you."

Xue Jing stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and then said:

"How strong is this Otogirusu?"

He was indeed tempted, as opportunities to come into contact with Divine Relics were rare, and he wouldn't miss out on one if he could help it.

But he still needed to understand the specifics.

Wu Youqing thought for a moment and said, "According to the records of his performance in a tournament in the Far East a year ago, back then, in the terms of you martial artists, he was probably at the professional fifth grade."

Xue Jing frowned and said, "Fifth grade?"

Grades were a way of categorizing a martial artist's strength.

Although it wasn't completely accurate, it could generally express the level of a martial artist's capabilities.

Xue Jing himself hadn't officially set his grade, but by checking the performance of each grade online, he evaluated himself and believed that without using special skills like Twin Lifes or Shadow Flame,

his current level would probably be rated as professional third grade.

Of course, actual combat was completely different. It wasn't unusual in the arena for someone to defeat an opponent several grades higher; this was just a rough division of surface strength.

"Although Otogirusu admires the Old Martial Arts and thus never touches 'Banned Drugs' or 'Alien Implants', which he sees as the ways of heretics, his family background ensures he has access to the world's top cultivation resources,"

said Wu Youqing in a calm tone.

"The professional fifth grade rating was not just from a year ago, but also when he was unarmed."

Xue Jing's eyes narrowed slightly as he inquired, "What do you mean?"

"He was taken as a disciple by Sword Saint Master Tamuramaro, one of the five great masters of the Old Martial World in the Far East, and has received the full transmission of the Suzaku Style,"

Wu Youqing said with a hint of a smile.

"They call him 'Ninefold Grade When Armed with a Sword'... meaning, when he's armed with a sword, he's more than nine times stronger than when he's unarmed."

Xue Jing's mouth twitched.

"The U19 no-holds-barred fighting tournament allows weapons... which means, I'll have to defeat him while he's armed with a sword to get GOD-519?"

Wu Youqing nodded with a smile.

Xue Jing chuckled: "Let's talk about it when I have some free time, I'm really not scared, it's just that I'm genuinely busy lately..."

Wu Youqing spoke with significance: "It's up to you to decide on this matter... additionally, if you want to enter the tournament, you'd better do it soon."

"The preliminary rounds are already over, and the regional elimination rounds are about to begin. Based on what you need to do, I can speak to the higher-ups and pull some strings to list you as a seeded contestant, allowing you to directly participate in the Maple City elimination round."

"You have one week to consider."

...

After hanging up the video call, Xue Jing looked troubled.

GOD-519... how he wanted it.

A weapon of true, Eternal Indestructibility, an irresistible temptation for any martial artist.

Not to mention the Divinity inherent in the Divine Relic itself.

But his current strength was honestly not sufficient.

Being rated professional fifth grade when unarmed, on paper his strength was already completely above Xue Jing's, not to mention the 'Ninefold Grade When Armed with a Sword' factor.

And that data was from a year ago...

"Sigh, get stronger, must get stronger!"

Xue Jing stood up, his pupils quietly burning with Dark Flame.

Kangde Security Company, Otogirusu, the Heavenly Lodge Insect Mother...

He needed to become much stronger.

A sense of urgency rose within Xue Jing's heart.
