Chapter 37: Tempering the Soul!

Originally, he prepared these Powers of Faith to condense four strands of divine power.

But now he only had half.

Lorne’s plan had to change.

The idea of using two strands of divine power to temper both the body and soul had to be shelved.

Now only one strand of divine power could be used.

Lorne pondered for a moment.

Finally, he set his target on his soul.

Tempering the body could allow him to gain powerful close combat abilities.

But cultivating the soul would increase the power of divine spells.

It just so happened that he already tempered his body once.

And now, he would be able to cultivate his soul to maintain the improvement of his overall combat strength.

As for casting divine spells?

Well, at this stage, just a thread of divine power was enough to give his opponent a fatal blow.

Furthermore, Lorne already reserved two strands of divine power on his body.

“Let me see just how amazing it is to cultivate one’s soul.”

“Cultivate the soul!”

Lorne immediately began.

The divine power in his body disintegrated once more, like an explosion in the universe, releasing all of its energy.

At this moment, Lorne truly felt the divine power of the three elements.

The effect it displayed was something that ordinary divine power could not compare to.

Even the thunder and fire divine power from back then could not compare.

Divine power with three elements .

In terms of refining the divine soul, the effect was a thousand times better than ordinary gods!

Buzz!

It was as if a huge rock was thrown into a calm lake.

Lorne’s sea of divine soul stirred up huge ripples. With the injection of new energy, his soul was still gradually expanding.

There was no earth-shattering momentum like before.

At this time, everything was slightly calm.

Only the sound of waves crashing on the shore kept echoing in Lorne’s mind.

Under this sound, his soul was growing.

Every idea!

Every thought!

Every soul!

All were changing.

But the process was very slow.

It would last for a long time.

Lorne seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.

Obviously, he was not in a hurry.

He could take this opportunity to analyze the power of his divine personality.

Divine power came from the divine personality. By analyzing the divine personality, one could grasp the elemental laws it carried to a large extent.

Killing two birds with one stone was naturally not torture.

…

One day in the City of God was equivalent to 24 days in the World of Believers!

While Lorne was in his cultivation session, a long time already passed for his believers.

It was currently the end of the second year following the birth of the divine kingdom!

Although their god had not appeared for a long time, due to the previous population and equipment, the overall strength of the divine kingdom was already very strong.

In addition, with the winged dragon Nia around, the kingdom basically would not encounter any danger.

On the contrary, during this period, the believers swept through the surrounding forest.

The believers cleared out the area within 50 kilometers away from the Monde tribe.

Most of it was thanks to the Centaur army.

These Centaurs that evolved had overwhelming power in terms of combat strength.

Especially when they charged together.

Tier-One or even Tier-Two normal grade creatures couldn’t survive their attacks.

If it wasn’t for Lorne’s orders not to go too far, the Centaurs might have already advanced a hundred kilometers away.

In addition, it was also because they gained a lot during this period that there were many captives in the territory.

Kobolds and orcs were the most, with a total number of around 700 people.

These were all captives.

The kobold leader was planning on enlightening them.

Unfortunately, because the kobolds and orcs had limited intelligence, it was far from enough to just rely on words to enlighten them.

Unless there was a “miracle”.

The arrival of their god could convert these creatures with low intelligence at the fastest speed.

But they were helpless because the two Shamans in the divine kingdom had no way to contact their god.

No matter how much they prayed, they received no response.

If it wasn’t for the totem on their bodies, they would have even suspected that their god had abandoned these lowly believers.

“Everyone, gather in the square!”

Early in the morning, many figures appeared in the square outside the temple.

They were a group of kobolds and orcs.

Driven to the square, they knelt down in the direction of the temple.

This was their daily homework.

Apart from doing hard labor to carry materials, the only thing they had to do was to pray here.

At this time, in front of the team, the orc chief and kobold leader held their staffs high and led thousands of prisoners of war to pray.

The benefits of doing so were very low.

But there was no other way.

In a situation where their god doesn’t appear, they could only pass on the concept of faith to the prisoners of war through such actions.

And it wasn’t completely without benefits.

During this year, the Shamans successfully enlightened 200 new believers.

Although they were only cursory believers, they were still happy to be able to do this.

“Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh…”

A few rays of light poured down.

Under the duo’s sermon, a few orcs became believers. The God of Thunder and Fire’s totem was carved on their foreheads.

At this moment, the hunting team from the divine kingdom returned.

In the hands of these strong orcs, they were all carrying huge beasts.

The divine kingdom now had nearly 2000 people, so the internal consumption of resources was naturally huge.

Fortunately, there were many beasts in the forest, so there was no need to worry about food.

The orcs put down their prey and set off again.

They continued to hunt.

As there were no more nests near the divine kingdom, if they wanted to fight again, they would have to go dozens of kilometers away.

Such a long journey was more suitable for the Centaurs.

So, the Centaurs were now in charge of all the combat missions.

The orcs were in charge of the hunting missions.

Finally, the weakest kobolds were in charge of taking care of the captives in the divine kingdom.

Such a clear division of labor allowed everything in the divine kingdom to run smoothly.

It also allowed the kingdom to have a steady rate of development.

And all of this came from a Centaur named Anna.

She was the one who suggested it.

Let the kingdom prosper.

At the same time, she was the fastest growing Centaur among all Centaurs.

And the fastest to evolve.

She was now one of the four captains of the Centaur Army.

At this moment, Anna was already 60 kilometers away from the divine kingdom.

With Nia’s investigation and the Centaur scouts’ inspection, she could confirm that the dwarves in front of her had amassed all their combat strength.

After the most meticulous consideration, Anna gave the order to attack.

30 Centaurs formed a cavalry formation and launched a surprise attack on the “dwarf cottage” when no one was on guard.
