The People's God: Sacrificing Trillions to Ascend-Chapter 551 - The Heart Eater Sacred Object Set

Han Wu risked overloading himself by channeling the power of a World life form through his Earthsunder life form body. In the end, he could only endure for three minutes before being forced to release the Tranquil Domain for the sake of preserving his life.

Faido thus regained his chance to escape. Unlike before, he didn’t make the mistake of waiting for the light of the Asura Coliseum to engulf him; instead, he used brute force to shatter space and forcefully transport himself.

Both Aisha and the Origin of Mutation hurled their Divine Rings at Faido’s to prevent him from escaping, but Faido was decisive. He didn’t hesitate to abandon his own Divine Ring the moment he realized they had captured it.

Living took priority over the loss of his Divine Ring. This crucial judgment ended up saving his life, buying him time to drag his injured body into the cracked space and escape back to the Asura Coliseum.

The trio couldn’t give chase as they didn’t know the coordinates of the Asura Coliseum. Even if they were to pursue him through the cracked space, there was a good chance they would be deposited elsewhere. Moreover, even on the off chance that they did make it to the Asura Coliseum, that was Faido’s base. They would no longer be on home territory. Naturally, it was best to make preparations before heading over.

As Han Wu mulled over their next course of action, Aisha and the Origin of Mutation gathered Faido’s Divine Ring and the chunks of his flesh that had been left behind. They then had Han Wu decide how they would divide it.

Han Wu could tell that the Divine Ring contained powerful energies filled with certain laws reminiscent of fragments of a civilization’s will. Those beneath the World rank would greatly benefit if they absorbed it.

The flesh, on the other hand, was filled with potent Life Energy. A Sage life form could undoubtedly advance into an Earthsunder life form if they ate it. In fact, it was possible that even an Earthsunder life form could advance into a Heavenrender life form if they were to consume all of it.

“Lady Aisha fought against Faido the longest, so it's only fair that you get the larger portion,” Han Wu said. “But Faido was only forced into a corner because the two of us joined the fight, so we should also gain something for that merit. What I mean to say is that we should split it equally. Would Lady Aisha agree?”

Aisha glanced thoughtfully at the Origin of Mutation, then at Han Wu, before finally nodding in agreement. Having gained her support, Han Wu split the Divine Ring and flesh into equal halves, and Aisha happily returned to the Angel Civilization with her spoils.

All that was left was for Han Wu and the Origin of Mutation to decide what to do with their half.

The Origin of Mutation wasn’t interested in Faido’s Divine Ring and wanted the flesh, which was rich in Life Energy, making it precious experimental material. After some persuasion, Han Wu acquiesced, and it happily left to research the flesh. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

With that sorted, Han Wu grabbed the remaining half of the Divine Ring and placed it in his divine realm. Unfortunately, this wasn’t the time for him to research it, as he had other things to deal with at the moment. Exiting the arena, he returned to the Blood Coliseum to announce the good news.

Though heavily injured, Faido was by no means dead. He would almost certainly come for revenge after recovering. This meant Han Wu had to find and kill him while he was still weakened.

With the crisis of the Blood Coliseum averted, the students and lecturers of Imperial College happily left with their compensation.

The reinforcements from the God King of Death and the God King of Darkness were about to leave when Han Wu stopped them. Pulling out his half of the Divine Ring, he further split it into three pieces to divide between them. Although this was but a sixth of a Divine Ring, it was still a rare material, even for God Kings, so Han Wu was confident that they would be satisfied.

Eventually, only the staff and the Sanguine Combatants were left.

The Heavenrender Sanguine Combatant stepped forward to kneel before Han Wu, officially recognizing him as its owner.

Han Wu hastily asked it to stand up. After all, the Sanguine Combatants were a powerful race, and he would need their help in the future.

Marks then approached Han Wu. “Boss, our Blood Coliseum didn’t suffer any losses from the challenge. In fact, we even earned some money.”

“How did we earn money?” Han Wu asked, bewildered.

“After the first death match, we returned the bodies of the Sage life forms who fought for us to their owners. The dead Sage life forms from the Asura Coliseum, however, became our resources. After the second match, we also collected the remains of the Earthsunder life forms,” Marks explained. “Both these materials are extremely valuable, and with minimal processing, we were able to use them as compensation for the other Gods—and still turned a small profit after.”

Han Wu nodded contentedly at the news. “The Asura Coliseum’s challenge has passed, and it’ll take some time before Faido returns for revenge. I’m preparing to attack him before he can seek vengeance, so I’ll need you to work on strengthening our units before I bring them with me to challenge the Asura Coliseum.”

“Understood, sir.”

After delegating some other tasks, Han Wu returned to his divine realm to inspect his losses. The loss of all his Sage life forms had left a gap in his army—one that he needed to fill as quickly as possible, at the risk of impacting the rate at which he gained Earthsunder life forms.

Just then, Jiang Ming sent him a message stating that he had successfully refined the Heart Eater materials into Sacred Objects. All Han Wu needed to do was Merge these lower-ranking Sacred Objects to get the set he needed.

Some time later, Han Wu had six Rank 8 Sacred Objects in hand.

Though he could only individually equip five to his Core, he soon found he could actually equip all six at once when done as a set. Moreover, each item in this set had unique effects.

Han Wu took the time to study them carefully.

[Rank 8 Sacred Object: Heart Eater Eyes. Grants dynamic vision and increases the chance of locating enemy weak points when equipped.]

[Rank 8 Sacred Object: Heart Eater Brain. Awakens a random attribute in each member of the core race according to its affinity when equipped. Also provides a corresponding starting skill.]

[Rank 8 Sacred Object: Heart Eater Claw. One’s attacking limb or weapon will be enhanced when equipped.]

[Rank 8 Sacred Object: Heart Eater Stomach. Drastically increases digestion and absorption when equipped.]

[Rank 8 Sacred Object: Heart Eater Kidney. Increases breeding rate and newborn survival rate when equipped.]

[Rank 8 Sacred Object: Heart Eater Body. Increases defensive stats when equipped. Also provides a chance for newborns of the core race with a specific affinity to gain a passive defensive skill at birth.]

[Set Effect: 1. Can partially ignore Core level cap without incurring any penalty. 2. Heart Eater: Each unit can consume its heart once for a permanent increase to all stats. They can also consume another life form’s heart to change into that life form’s race.]

Han Wu’s heart pounded when he saw the set effects.

He could equip this set without penalty despite his Core only having a level cap of 40! His hard work had paid off! The set effect of the Heart Eater Sacred Objects was truly amazing!
