Chapter 244: Chapter 127 Divine Care_1

With the help of the Mingjiang River God, we arrived at the Yun Province pier half a day earlier than expected.

The Mingjiang River God stopped the waves just before reaching the pier, allowing the steamboat to sail into the harbor by itself, while it returned to the river, swimming with its colossal body.

The Mingjiang River God did not seize this opportunity to appear directly before the harbor pier to promote its divine skills and faith, but chose to leave early, for two reasons.

The first reason is that the hostility of the Great Xia’s Imperial Court towards the Aquatic Tribe has not been eliminated. Large piers like the Yun Province one are guarded by cultivators from the Imperial Astronomical Bureau, and a rash intrusion would arouse the hostility of the Great Xia’s Imperial Court.

The second reason is that forcibly appearing and displaying divine power is too deliberate and would arouse resentment and resistance from the Human Clan, particularly in this environment where there is general enmity towards the Jidu Aquatic Clan.

In this digital age, as long as the Mingjiang River God persists in escorting the Human Clan in River Ji, its reputation will spread sooner or later. There’s no need to rush.

Seeing the Mingjiang River God’s astute approach, Shen Yuan couldn’t help but slightly nod his approval.

As he watched the massive body gradually drift away, Shen Yuan noticed the remnants of his divine power from Cang Province that had been rapidly fading since he had left that area.

These remnants of divine power would return to the heavens and earth after a few hours away from Cang Province, and even the Gods Purging Divine Power wouldn’t be able to preserve them.

Rather than let them dissipate naturally, it would be better to let these remnants of divine power fulfill their ultimate value.

“You’re quite fortunate.”

Shen Yuan stretched out his right hand with a hint of a smile, using his index finger as a brush and divine power residue as ink, he shaped a complex Divine Edict in the air.

In the river, the Mingjiang River God, who was driving the waves towards Cang Province, suddenly heard a low whisper filled with a bit of mirth.

“Bless!”

The divine might descended upon the River Ji. The Mingjiang River God only felt as if an extraordinarily grand local deity in the void was slowly opening its eyes, its gaze falling on this narrow river.

In the next moment, all the illusions disappeared, but the Mingjiang River God could feel that after the grand local deity’s gaze fell upon him, his perception of the divine power that drifted between heaven and earth became clearer.

Due to that deity’s gaze, the divine paths in this part of the world showed him a touch of favor.

Though this favor appeared minimal, it could bring profound implications within the grand system of the Incense Offering Divinity Path. It would enable him to ascend ranks with fewer incense offering faith points, and easily form the Incense Fire God Realm, Incense Gold Body.

In the future struggle of the divine path, this divine favor would provide him with a massive advantage. Even if other deities had higher cultivation, they could hardly make up for this gap.

In the Southern Three States, only one entity could make the divine paths of this world favor him with a single glance. That would be the Divine Monarch who appeared in Qingping County to suppress the River Ji Dragon Palace.

Thinking of this, the Mingjiang River God quickly turned to look in the direction of the pier behind him.

He realized that probably it was his protection of the Human Clan’s ships that earned him the award from the Divine Monarch.

The Mingjiang River God was overjoyed.

It wasn’t just joy for receiving the grace of the Divine Monarch, but more importantly, it was because the Mingjiang River God knew that his deeds were approved by the Divine Monarch.

For the Aquatic Tribe in River Ji, that Divine Monarch had unlocked the shackles of the River Ji Dragon Palace for billions of the Aquatic Tribe, enjoying unmatched prestige.

Receiving approval from such a great figure was a considerable encouragement for the Mingjiang River God. It was even more inspiring than divine favor.

“This humble god, Mingjiang, thanks Your Majesty, Divine Monarch!”

“Mingjiang will certainly live up to the Divine Monarch’s grace, perform good deeds, and bless the common people!”

His powerful voice echoed in the river, spreading for dozens of miles. Even at the pier, one could still hear the words of the Mingjiang River God.

The next moment, strong incense offering faith gathered on the river surface, forming a giant funnel that imbued the Mingjiang River God’s body.

Incense Fire thoughts sprouted all around. In the surroundings of the Mingjiang River God, a narrow Incense Fire God Realm quietly opened up.

Originally, the Mingjiang River God who only had a touch of incense fire scent, with the favor of the divine path, successfully ascended to a Class 4 uncultivated god, stepping into the real divine path position.

At this point, the Mingjiang River God has completely broken through the shackles of the River Ji Dragon Palace, becoming the first Aquatic local deity on the River Ji that was not restricted by the River Ji Dragon Palace.

When the Mingjiang River God woke from the afterglow of the divine path breakthrough, the large steamboat in the distance had already sailed into the harbor.

The Mingjiang River God moved his immense body, bowing respectfully in the direction of the pier.

Then, the Mingjiang River God dived into the water and sped towards Cang Province. Behind him were the Aquatic Tribe and schools of fish following him.

Gong Buyu watched everything in front of her. After a long while, she asked with a touch of curiosity in her cold voice:

“Master gave him divine favor. Could it be that Master thinks he can stand out and become the new River Ji Dragon Sovereign?”

Shen Yuan laughed silently, gently shaking his head as he walked into the room.

“Billion aquatic beings are vying for the divine path. The position of River Ji Dragon Sovereign can’t be set by a bit of divine favor.”

“Moreover, who can climb to the River Ji Dragon Sovereign’s position doesn’t matter to me.”

Unable to hold back, Gong Buyu asked, “But what if the True Dragon of the River Ji Dragon Palace sits on the River Ji Dragon Sovereign and suppresses the River Ji divine path again?”

Shen Yuan paused for a moment, then casually replied:
