Chapter 1247 Learning More About The Divine Patterns

"But he isn't a master at the Superior God Realm, right? A level-six divine pattern should be enoughfor the task," said the Gambling King.

"Deal."

A level-six divine pattern for killing King Winfred was certainly a tempting offer, even for the peopleof the Blood Abyss Sect.

"I'm curious. You're already powerful enough to just kill him yourself, why go through the hassle ofpaying us a big sum to kill him for you? If you say it's because of what happened just now, I won'tbelieve it," said the black figure.

"Isn't there a harsh rule in the Blood Abyss Sect that you shouldn't be asking your employers theirreasons for the mission?" spat the Gambling King coldly.

"I'll be back in three days for the killing points and the divine pattern, so you'd better get everythingready before that." Without another word, the black figure put away the killing token, spun aroundand disappeared into thin air.

Meanwhile, in the branch of the Starry Sword Sect, there was cause for celebration.

"I can't believe it! We made a fortune. I must admit in the beginning I was sure you'd lose, butunexpectedly, you burst out such a powerful sword intent. You managed to turn an imminent defeatinto a victory. That was just mind-blowing,”

Murphy said ecstatically as he landed beside Darren.

"It was a narrow victory. By the way, have you got the killing points we won?"

"Of course.” Murphy nodded and handed over a blood red stone to Darren. "Here you are. Fifteenmillion killing points. Later, I'll ask someone to make some divine patterns. After they're finished, Iwill send you two of them.”

The divine pattern fragments that Murphy obtained were enough to create four level-five divinepatterns.

"Sounds good. Let's split up the killing points between the two of us. How will I be able to use thedivine patterns after I get them, though?"

"It's actually quite simple. You just need to integrate them directly into your blood. By the way,which series of divine patterns would you like?" asked Murphy.

"Honestly, I don't know much about the divine patterns.” Darren shook his head as he furrowed hisbrows.

"Here is a general introduction about the divine patterns. You can take this and have a look. Whenyou replace some that you'd like, make some haste and tell me. I need to send for a master to createthe divine patterns as soon as possible.” Murphy handed Darren a pamphlet.

"Okay." Darren took the pamphlet and began to scan through it.

The divine patterns were divided into twelve series, and each series contained a variety of divinepatterns that could be further divided into twelve levels. This was somewhat familiar to Darren afterall.

"Defensive divine patterns, accelerating divine patterns, strength divine patterns, blood divinepatterns, attacking divine patterns, penetrating divine patterns, augmented divine patterns, lifedivine patterns, curing divine patterns, soul divine patterns, dark divine patterns, killing divinepatterns,” read Darren, out loud.

There were twelve series in total. Darren checked them one by one.

After examining them, Darren had attained a general understanding of the divine patterns.

"The accelerating series is pretty good. If I can have a “fast stab’ divine pattern, it can increase thespeed of my sword and blade.

The attacking series is also not that bad. A level-five attacking divine pattern can improve my god'spower by one thousandth.”

Among the many options available, Darren began to consider what kind of divine pattern he shouldchoose.

After careful consideration, Darren finally chose the penetrating divine patterns.

"Ha-ha, my black god's power and my sword intent have strong penetrating power. If coupled withthe power of a penetrating divine pattern, my penetrating power would become even stronger!"Only by combining the strong powers could he completely maximize his strength. This was thereason why Darren decided to choose the penetrating series.

"This 'bladeless’ divine pattern under the penetrating series looks like a fine choice. A level-fivedivine pattern can increase my penetrating power by one thousandth. If I can collect a thousand ofsuch divine patterns, the penetrating power of my black god's power and sword intent will double,and my actual combat power will increase by several times!"

Darren was getting pumped by the idea of all the possible upgrades he could make to his methods.However, he also knew that it would be very difficult to collect a thousand level-five divine patterns.For now, two divine patterns would suffice.

"Are you sure of your decision, Darren?"

"I'm sure. I want the 'bladeless’ divine patterns.”

"Well, you've got a good eye. With your special god's power, your strength will definitely improve.”Murphy nodded.

"By the way, I have to remind you that everyone can only choose divine patterns of two series atmost to be infused into their blood in their lives. Once the decision is made, I'm afraid it isirreversible," added Murphy.

"Everyone can only choose two series? What if someone chooses one more series?" Darren asked inconfusion.

"After one chooses two series, the divine patterns of the third series can no longer be infused intotheir body. As for the reason, I don't know, either.”

"Got it." Darren nodded.

"Besides, no matter what realm you are at, you can really only integrate twelve divine patterns intoyour blood. That's always been the limit," said Murphy.

"What? Only twelve?" Darren was a little disappointed. He had already planned to collect athousand divine patterns, so that the penetrating power of his god's power could double. Amaximum limit of twelve was a big let-down.

"Well, again, no more than twelve. But if you could obtain divine patterns of higher levels, you couldreplace the divine patterns that you have already integrated into your blood.

For example, suppose you've been infused with twelve level-five divine patterns, and later you get alevel-six 'bladeless' divine pattern, then you can use the level-six 'bladeless' divine pattern to replacethe old ones."

"I see. It seems that the divine patterns at higher levels are more useful.” Darren nodded andcontinued, "By the way, Master Murphy, what about the level-twelve divine patterns? I supposethey'd also greatly enhance my cultivation level?"

"Ha-ha, that is correct, lad. But only the supreme gods and chief gods can use level-twelve divinepatterns. Don't even dream about having them in your lifetime,” an old man said as he camestrolling in, stroking his beard as he gave a hearty laugh.

"This is..." Darren looked at the direction where the voice came from.

"This is Master Adolf, a top master at making divine patterns. He can even make level-eight divinepatterns,” Murphy introduced.

"Please forgive me for my lack of manners. Master Adolf, kindly have a seat,” Darren said politelyand courteously bowed to him.

Adolf gave a calm smile as he nodded and sat himself down.

"You're quite a lucky lad. You can have two level-five divine patterns at such a young age,” MasterAdolf said, his calm smile still gracing his face.

"Alas! They are not quite so useful. I estimate that level-eight divine patterns will do me greaterhelp. Master Adolf, could you make those for me?"

"Little guy, I definitely didn't expect you to be so greedy. Of course I can create them for you. You'djust need to give me the needed fragments.”

"I don't have the fragments right now. If I obtain them in the future, I hope I can still ask you tomake the level-eight divine patterns for me." Darren stuttered and blushed in embarrassment.

"Let that pipe dream go, kid. Even a cultivator at the Superior God Realm can't get the fragments oflevel-eight divine patterns. You'd better just give up instead of wasting your time.

But, tell you what, I do know a place where there are natural divine patterns. Level-seven or eightdivine patterns can be found there," advised Master Adolf.

As Darren and Murphy heard this, their eyes lit up at the same time. "Master Adolf, is there reallysuch a place?" they asked in unison.

"Yes, I'm sure of it. However, it's thousands of times more difficult to obtain level-eight divinepatterns from that place than killing the Divine Pattern Beasts. Who would dare take that challengeon?"

"Master Adolf, could you tell us where this place you speak of is?" Murphy quickly asked beforeDarren could speak.

"Supreme God Sheffield's Tomb."

As soon as Murphy heard this, he immediately lost interest.

Darren was still thrilled. "A supreme god's tomb? Is that the place where a supreme god is buried?""It's an impossible feat. It is said that only a few drops of the blood essence of Supreme GodSheffield had fallen there, and that his descendants made sure to bury them where none couldreach it. From then on, it became known as one of the most dangerous places in the land, and noone dared to enter it," warned Adolf.

"It's just a few drops of blood essence...” What was the big deal with just a few drops of bloodessence? Why would the place become one of the most dangerous places? This information just leftDarren spinning with more questions in his mind.

Seeing Darren get demotivated as he wracked his mind about the blood essence had Murphy andAdolf both shaking their heads as they let out a light chuckle. Darren's ignorance and naivety wascertainly an entertaining sight for them.
