Shaking his head, Xue Jing no longer pondered these insignificant matters and thought:

"From what that woman said just now, after I extracted the Divinity from the Stigmata, the Mutation Rate really dropped."

The reason he so readily returned the eyeball to Qin was precisely to confirm this.

Knowing that his sister, Xue Wan, had become a Blessed One and also risked being contaminated and mutated, he thought of this.

"Now, it seems that the so-called \'Divinity\' has begun to peel back a layer of mist."

Xue Jing\'s eyes flickered.

From the time he touched the Cat Tail Ring and encountered Divinity to now, the objects or people from whom he had absorbed Divinity had not suffered any impact on their inherent powers.

The functions of the Divine Relics remained intact, Miao Miao still possessed the Heretic God\'s powers after integrating with Bastet, and the woman from the Flower God Society, from whom he had extracted the Divinity of the Stigmata, still used her ability to control plants without any hindrance.

And now, he finally discovered an anomaly after the Divinity was extracted.

Mutation Rate...

God\'s Power soaking into and contaminating the Spirit and Consciousness can cause mutation, but extracting Divinity can reduce the Mutation Rate while not affecting the powers it grants.

This means that so-called \'Divinity\' isn\'t the power of the god itself, but rather something that comes with the power.

"I can\'t be one hundred percent certain right now, but later, I should find my sister to confirm this. She\'s a Blessed One with Stigmata. I\'ll extract some Divinity from her and see if her Mutation Rate decreases."

"If that\'s really the case, then I don\'t need to worry much about her mutating."

"Moreover..." Xue Jing touched his chin.

If extracting Divinity really works this way, reducing the Mutation Rate while not affecting anything else, wouldn\'t he become the \'spiritual father\' of all the Blessed Ones?

If he made this public, he reckoned he\'d indeed be chased around and called \'Righteous Father\' by a bunch of people.

Wouldn\'t Divinity be easy to collect then?

Thinking of the gains, Xue Jing nearly drooled.

But his reason forcefully punched away the surging desires and jumped out, telling him not to do this.

"There will definitely be many calling me \'Righteous Father,\' but among them, there will certainly be numerous formidable figures like Lü Bu..."

Although he didn\'t know how many Blessed Ones were in the world, he was aware that there were undoubtedly many.

The waters of this world are deep, and among the Blessed Ones, there must exist monstrous powerhouses beyond his current imagination.

If the fact that he could solve the Mutation Rate issue without side effects were to leak... what immense interests would be stirred?

What would happen then would be completely uncontrollable.

Maybe he really could profit from this situation, but such uncontrollable circumstances were not what he wanted.

With the Skill Panel, he would ultimately become a true deity among men, no rush, no rush.

Suppressing his deep desires for Divinity, Xue Jing opened his panel to take a look.

"Hm? Why is there no sign of recovery?"

He gazed at the Divine Skill bar that contained the [Plant Pact], slightly puzzled.

Ever since the pact with that Spider Plant, the name of the Plant Pact had always appeared dim.

The color is the Blue Bar, dimness is empty blue, but Twin Lifes and Shadow Flame would brighten over time after use, slowly returning to light golden.

Yet the Plant Pact showed no sign of recovery, though it had been nearly an hour.

"Could it be..."

Xue Jing took out the seed that the Spider Plant had turned into from his pocket.

With a thought, the pact engraving on the Spider Plant Seed immediately dissipated.

At that moment, the [Plant Pact] on the panel suddenly brightened, turning light golden.

"As I suspected..."

Xue Jing\'s eyes revealed understanding.

"It\'s limited by the number of pacts... still can\'t let me play with an unlimited army of plants," he sighed.

"Lv1, can only contract with one plant?"

Xue Jing placed the spider plant seed on the table and picked up the dark red \'Oxygen-Absorbing Tree\' seed.

With a thought, a circular contract pattern appeared on the dark red seed.

Upon reopening the Skill Panel, the color of [Plant Pact] had dimmed and was much darker than when contracting with the spider plant, almost completely black.

"The stronger the plant, the greater the consumption?"

"It seems that it\'s not a limit on the number of contracts, but an issue of energy consumption. The total is 100, contracting the spider plant consumes 30, and contracting the \'Oxygen-Absorbing Tree\' consumes 99... approximately so."

Xue Jing tossed the contracted dark red seed onto the ground.

Sounds of wriggling echoed as over a dozen green tendrils burst out from all over the seed, growing thicker and longer. All the tendrils writhed, resembling an octopus waving its tentacles.

The tendrils grew to several meters long, wriggling and stretching within the hotel room, eventually filling half of the room.

At the same time, Xue Jing felt the tendrils breathing, as the surrounding oxygen was violently sucked in at an almost ferocious pace.

The air thinned, and Xue Jing began to find it difficult to breathe.

With a thought, the breathing of all tendrils suddenly paused, forcefully stopped.

Air flowed back in from outside the window, and the oxygen density quickly returned to normal.

"Not bad." Xue Jing nodded, quite satisfied.

This plant recommended by Nagu had a lot more potential for growth; it just couldn\'t fit in the hotel room anymore and was much stronger than the spider plant.

"I\'ll try again when I get the chance."

He controlled all the tendrils to shrink back and regrow in reverse, and the large tendrils soon retracted back into a dark red seed.

Putting the seed into his pocket, Xue Jing took out his phone, opened the dialer, and dialed his sister\'s number.

...

At the entrance of Maple University, Xue Wan cradled Miao Miao in her arms, looking at the chaotic scene before her where the ground was full of massive cracks. Her usually gentle and amiable face was now expressionless and nearly icy cold.

The sounds of fire engines and police cars\' sirens were relentless, and the area was packed with onlookers curious about what had happened, as if there had just been a major earthquake.

A few classmates familiar with Xue Wan contemplated greeting her, but upon seeing her expressionless face, they couldn\'t muster the words.

"Wanwan... What\'s wrong with her? She looks terrifying."

"Didn\'t Professor Lü call her earlier? Maybe she got scolded..."

"She seems really upset. Maybe we shouldn\'t disturb her..."

Miao Miao in Xue Wan\'s arms wore a thoughtful, almost anthropomorphic expression.

It had just accompanied Xue Wan to see that Professor Lü and learned a secret.

It was considering whether to report to Xue Jing immediately...

Just then, a ringtone emitted from Xue Wan\'s pocket.

She expressionlessly took out her phone, seeing \'My Silly Bean\' on the screen, blinked, and her demeanor finally thawed, easing a bit.

"Sister."

Xue Jing\'s voice came from the receiver.

Xue Wan took a deep breath, calming her previously anxious heart, and tried to speak calmly:

"Jing… Where are you right now?"

"I\'m at a hotel… Don\'t worry, I\'m fine." Xue Jing seemed to sense the anxiety in her tone, his words reassuring.

"Give me the hotel address and room number... I\'ll come to you."

Without seeing her brother for herself, Xue Wan couldn\'t be at ease.

"Also… there are some things I need to talk to you about."

Xue Jing chuckled on the phone, gave the hotel address and room number, and continued, "Come over then, I also have something to tell you."

Xue Wan hung up the phone, placing it against her plump chest, looking much more relaxed.

She glanced back in the direction of the Horticulture Institute of Maple University, then turned and left.
