My Ability Is Role-playing

Chapter 637 - 631: Reckless – Upper Rank Gods!

For ordinary "Burning Martial" cultivators, even those who have reached Ma Ran’s current level and have accumulated perfectly with deep foundations, truly awakening the [Bright Star Gaze], they still cannot achieve his level.

Based on the foundation and depth of a cultivator, the ability to be exerted by the [Bright Star Gaze] is about one ten-thousandth to one-tenth of Ma Ran’s level, with significant fluctuations.

It must be understood that Ma Ran’s abilities are not just about "Burning Martial".

Medals like the [Sword Master], [Demon Child], and [Profound Immortal], any one of them contains a considerable amount of passive attribute enhancements.

Even so, a pure "Burning Martial" cultivator, among whom the more outstanding talents, upon reaching the Twenty-Fifth Rank, as long as they’re in good condition and have ample time without too much interference, can achieve the [Single Star Annihilation] accomplishment without relying on external items.

"The consumption isn’t high, manageable."

After completely annihilating the ruins and traces of Yinghuang Star, Ma Ran rubbed his eyelids: "Before leaving, use these eyes to carefully observe the secrets of the Divine Court."

On Yinghuang Star, amidst the chaotic battles among the gods, which Ma Ran secretly induced to incite true conflicts, many deities fell, and their divine formats were seized by Ma Ran, shattered and absorbed into the secret realm created by the [Sword Master] medal.

At this moment, the [Fake Earth] secret realm has solidified territories equivalent to dozens of provinces, incomparable to its previous state.

Yet, this progress, in Ma Ran’s view, can only be described as barely satisfactory.

This is the firewall prepared for Earthlings, the final lifeline, and must not have a single flaw or imperfection.

"The mission is a long and arduous one indeed..."

Ma Ran sighed: "It’s time to draw a conclusion to this Divine Court journey."

The emergence of the "Burning Martial" Twenty-Fifth Rank, with the [Bright Star Gaze] appearance, has significantly realized Ma Ran’s substantial reserves, enhancing his combat power considerably.

So...

Before leaving, Ma Ran wants to probe those who truly control the [Divine Court], the Upper Rank Gods.

This decision is not because of an obsessive compulsion to end the journey with a perfect note, but simply because...

He is very greedy, wanting to gain more from this Divine Court trip.

For this purpose, Ma Ran is willing to take the risk.

...

The next day.

Ma Ran cast out the "bait" he had prepared long ago.

Resonating with spirit and soul, Youwen mimics the divine soul’s wave aura, temporarily creating a divine net login stone through reflection techniques...

This bait swiftly spread within the information network of the [Struggle] civilization!

A rumor that originally did not attract much divine attention was quickly hyped, appearing in many deities’ eyes.

The keywords were "Burning Martial", Demon Nest, Future Secret Codex, and Divine Court King.

"The extraordinary secret codex of time travel... is it real? Why do I just not believe it?"

"Earth is the No. 7 Demon Nest, right? Isn’t it supposed to be annihilated soon? How could it have a future?"

"It’s said that the author of "Burning Martial" is a title-bearing Earthling known as the [Prophet], whose combat power ranks among the top Lower Rank Gods, and he also has a few friends suspected to possess Middle Rank God combat power."

"Understood, factoring this in, that prophet, during the siege, escaped with his life, changed his identity, and went incognito, which is not impossible."

"Divine Court King... unheard of, it’s simply a joke!"

"Terms we’ve never even considered! Our [Divine Court] has been co-ruled by seven Upper Rank Gods since countless years ago; there’s never been a [Divine Court King]!"

Similar statements clamored loudly.

Initially, the deities were unwilling to believe such rumors.

However...

The development of events soon exceeded all gods’ expectations.

All "rumor posts" were completely sealed and deleted in a very short time.

During this process, dialogue footage between Middle Rank God [Ling] and future [Ling] was also exposed.

Although the video was incomplete, with obvious cut traces, from the half-truths, gods could still dissect a lot of information.

Deities who were initially skeptical began to believe.

The future’s extraordinary inheritance...

Perhaps it really exists.

But what did it have to do with them anyway?

Not considering those who can scarcely be called "gods" with "weak divine power", under the control of the [Divine Court], the vast majority of deities are Lower Rank Gods.

Everybody has a good sense of self-awareness, understanding that such utmost treasures are not something they can consume, so they simply chose not to discuss the topic.

Subsequently...

An anonymous rumor post mentioned that the strong from the No. 7 Demon Nest Earth, once joined forces to hunt down six Lower Rank Gods and one Middle Rank God, acquiring all their wealth, including a massive amount of faith power crystals, yet didn’t know how to use them.

If one could form a team to go over before Earth is destroyed, intercept those mighty ones, not only could they gain a large quantity of faith power crystals, skipping the long accumulation process, but there’s even a possibility to get the "Burning Martial" manuscript not belonging to the current timeline recognized, obtaining the opportunity to achieve Upper Rank God status!

The deities who received the message backed up some of the rumor’s truth through their own intelligence channels.

In the process of collecting information and verifying, what left the deepest impression on many deities was the entity codenamed [Prophet] whose real name is Ma Ran, the Earth human.

...

Another day passed.

"Flowers planted with intention do not bloom, while willows planted unintentionally turn into shade."

Hiding within the capital star ring of the [Struggle] civilization, Ma Ran now looked somewhat complex.

He vaguely felt that the two advancements in the "Burning Martial" realm might not be the greatest gain from this trip.

In the medal library, the [Academic Demon], [Martial Arts Celestial Pride], and [Prophet] medals have an intangible force faintly emanating between them, seemingly attracting each other.

Upon his return to Earth, as the rumors he posted on the divine net continue to spread and their influence ferments...

Perhaps he will obtain his highest-level medal to date.

The intent to spread rumors before leaving was to lay a foundation; besides the [play] script factor, there was another rather significant reason.

It is certain that Earth and the Divine Court are enemies.

The forces of the Divine Court are immense; in contrast, the Earth Civilization is extremely weak. Without Ma Ran, it couldn’t withstand a single blow. Even now, Ma Ran cannot guarantee the protection of his compatriots.

Otherwise, he would not need to prepare an escape route with the [Fake Earth] secret realm.

The story of Yu the Great controlling floods enlightened Ma Ran to the idea that guiding is better than blocking.

So...

Attracting and first taking down part of the enemy gods, weakening their overall combat power, is far more effective than continually fleeing or diverting disasters elsewhere.

"In these two days, I infiltrated the [Struggle] civilization and in doing so, found the location of the number three divine format library under [Divine Court]’s command."

Ma Ran squinted slightly: "Unfortunately, couldn’t get in; they raised the defense level."

Even with Youwen mimicking, which can deceive the guarding Middle Rank Gods, it cannot fool the [Discrimination Protection] left by the Upper Rank Gods!

The underlying principle of [Discrimination Protection], Ma Ran completely does not understand.

In these two days, Ma Ran found a good opportunity, attempting to infiltrate the divine format library directly for a big gain.

However...

Even though Ma Ran perfectly mimicked the divine formats, divine souls, bodies, behavior patterns, and speaking style of relevant staff, he was still discovered on the spot.

If it weren’t for his quick response, he might have been besieged by the gods then.

"Before leaving..."

Ma Ran fully activated the Youwen Text Illusion, hovering two hundred kilometers southeast of the number three divine format library, his eyes slightly closed, then gently opened, a glorious silver light surrounding his eyes, radiant and divine: "Break!"

Bang!

With a dull sound, the formless, intangible [Discrimination Protection] was shattered by Ma Ran’s gaze, transforming into dust of faith power crystals, scattered by the wind.

The number three divine format library, externally constructed with sky-blue jade, also collapsed with a roar, having its walls largely melted and annihilated.

"Not even one divine format?"

Ma Ran raised an eyebrow: "Fell into a trap."

"Moreover, this feeling..."

"It’s actually an Upper Rank God taking hands personally!"

Flicking the pale porcelain tail made by the Youwen, Ma Ran’s mouth curled into a grin, a wisp of crimson light flashed in his eyes, surrounded by pitch-black fierce flames.

Facing the East, his battle intent surged as he declared aloud: "At this point, words are futile."

"Come! Let’s fight to our heart’s content!"
