Chapter 133: The New Abilities of My Dutiful Son
From the moment he awakened his past life wisdom until now, Han Li was already approaching eight years old. Ever since his dutiful son had first contacted him at the age of three providing him with some basic information it had gone completely silent.
Five years. Five whole years. Did it have any idea what these five years had been like for him?!
Han Li really wanted to scold it.
But then he thought about how smoothly everything had gone for him during these five years, how things had always worked in his favor. His mouth clamped shut. Hmm… maybe there wasn't much to complain about after all.
Rushing into his room, he locked the door, set up a spirit power barrier around himself, then closed his eyes and sank into his spiritual world, facing off against a tiny ball of light one that might not even truly exist.
Well, he couldn't exactly say they were facing off. That thing didn't even have eyes. In fact, even its glowing orb like form was something he had mentally assigned to it.
"Praise be to you, my great Father! I thank you for awakening me from my slumber! I have finally caught up with your steps once more, ever ready to serve you!"
Whether it was because they were bound together, or because it had gained self awareness from absorbing a high dimensional fragment, Han Li wasn't sure.
But the moment his spiritual projection appeared and locked onto the little light ball, the thing immediately transmitted this fawning proclamation, flashing brightly as if wagging an invisible tail.
Han Li squinted.
The words were different, but… he couldn't shake off the strange sense of déjà vu.
Had he seen this exact scenario somewhere before?
Ah, forget it.
At the end of the day, this was his golden finger, so he shouldn't be too harsh.
So, he asked directly, "So, you only just woke up again?"
"Yes, Great Father! Thanks to your appointment as Saint Son, a massive influx of fate energy surged into you, allowing me to suppress my primal instincts and regain dominance."
The light orb flickered excitedly, circling around Han Li as if incredibly pleased.
"Why did this happen? You're saying even after gaining self awareness, you still get suppressed by your instincts?"
Han Li frowned. This was far different from how he imagined a world's consciousness should behave.
"Yes, Father. It's because of the rules rules set by the Divine Realm. Douluo Star is directly governed by the Divine Realm, and under those rules, I shouldn't even exist. But because of your arrival, I was accidentally granted consciousness."
"Under these restrictions, my instincts and self awareness exist in a constant struggle, both fighting and cooperating. But one day, we will fully merge and when that happens, I will become your absolute servant."
The light ball stopped circling and nuzzled against Han Li's leg.
"...So, what can you actually do right now?"
Han Li got straight to the point. He had a general understanding of what it meant, but now he wanted practical applications.
The light ball froze for a moment before slowly responding.
"Your luck has improved! By about 30%!"
"...And?"
Han Li crouched down, picking it up with his right hand.
"You… you can summon me for conversation?"
The light ball trembled slightly, flickering as if nervous.
"...Anything else?"
Han Li gently stroked it with his left hand, his voice gentle and kind.
"...F Father, you know me best! The Divine Realm's restrictions are too tight, and I'm still too weak. The only abilities I can currently utilize involve fate related matters and slightly influencing soul beasts that lack strong self awareness."
"But! Father, please rest assured! As you grow stronger, I will be able to alter the very rules of reality! One word from you will determine life and death! One thought from you will split mountains and rivers!"
"Ah! Right! Father, I did manage to break one restriction for you! You can now clearly perceive faith energy and use me as a filter, rapidly boosting your spiritual power!"
"And! If you choose to intervene, I can directly affect a person's fate to a certain extent!"
The light ball spoke in a rush, desperate to list all its abilities before Han Li could get angry. It even started rambling incoherently.
"...So, you're saying I can now steal other people's luck?"
Han Li's eyes lit up as his hand moved away from the orb. Compared to passive benefits, he much preferred having a direct, active means of control.
"Yes! But only if you personally interfere in the situation! The degree of interference determines how much of their luck I can strip away!"
The light orb pulsed rapidly, terrified of displeasing him.
"...Good. Very good."
Han Li smirked, feeling quite satisfied.
Honestly, he hadn't expected much from this conversation.
Because even just having a direct correlation between strength and luck was already a game changer. But now? Now he could actively steal luck from his enemies?
That was even better.
"Alright, tell me more about this faith energy absorption. Why did you mention that separately?"
Han Li had noticed that the plane consciousness had specifically highlighted this feature.
"Yes, Father! This knowledge came to me naturally upon awakening, likely tied to the Divine Realm's rules."
The light ball brightened, happily circling Han Li again.
"Originally, Douluo Continent's power system allowed living beings to reach Rank 100 naturally. They were also meant to sense the Divine Realm once they got strong enough."
"But for some unknown reason, the Divine Realm restricted breakthroughs beyond Rank 99. Now, unless someone undergoes divine inheritance, they can only become gods by slowly gathering faith energy to forge a divine seat."
"However, this process takes an extremely long time. And worse once someone condenses a god position through faith, they are forced to carry out its responsibilities."
"But if you use me as a filter, you will only receive the benefits of faith energy while the burdens are transferred to me!"
"And, Father, faith energy can greatly accelerate cultivation! For you, soul power growth rate isn't an issue, but spiritual power growth is currently limited to natural progression."
"Even that Heaven's Chosen One, who was tampered with by the Divine Realm, only had a slightly faster spiritual growth rate than others. That's why I highly recommend this method to you!"
"As long as your soul reaches the Divine Soul realm, faith energy can be converted into World Energy under my control. You can then become the god of this plane, without needing to ascend to the Divine Realm."
"In time, this very world will evolve into your own Divine Kingdom, gradually transforming into a true Divine Realm!"
"And once you become a god, this plane's evolution speed will accelerate faith energy conversion will improve, and its ability to absorb external energies will increase. At that point, this world will be able to sustain the birth of new gods!"
The light ball settled back into Han Li's palm, expressing its devotion.
