Chapter 5: Virtual World

After finishing all of this, Yang Fan mobilized his Faith Points to issue a Divine Decree.

At this moment, everyone around the Moon Well in the Divine Kingdom seemed to sense something in the netherworld, and simultaneously knelt on the ground.

"O God, we are your most devout believers. Please descend your Divine Decree, and we are willing to die for you." All the believers shouted in unison.

Yang Fan's voice came over, ethereal and sacred: "Your power is still not enough to bear My will.

The Divine Kingdom today is merely in its initial Awakening realm, and all living beings are weak, making it difficult to shoulder heavy responsibilities.

From today onwards, I shall bestow a cultivation method—the Federal Body Refinement Technique, along with various foundational skills.

This is the foundation for your establishment, and also the door to higher levels.

Only by diligent cultivation without slack can you undergo a transformation."

"Many thanks, O God."

A golden curtain of light descended from the sky, sinking into the center of each believer's brow.

After receiving the Legacy, Yang Fan's thoughts stirred slightly, and ten stone houses appeared on both sides of the Moon Well.

"This is the Moon Well. You can establish a tribe with it to reduce disasters and illnesses. Every 10 years, a drop of Moon Dew will be conceived in the well. Without My Divine Decree, it must not be taken privately.

About 100 kilometers away from this place, there is a treasured land nurturing the Bodhi Precious Snake, which is a First-Order Yao Beast. Once your Federal Body Refinement Technique achieves success, you can team up to hunt it. This snake is immensely powerful, far beyond what you can touch right now. Remember this.

On the other side, in the big river, I have placed the water lotus. Its maturation period is about 100 to 300 years. You must send people to inspect it at regular intervals, and if it matures, harvest it and put it into the warehouse."

"We strictly obey the Divine Decree." Everyone spoke in unison, their eyes devoid of any greed, holding only piety.

These believers were also humans and had worldly desires, but that was when interacting with other living beings in the Divine Kingdom.

Toward Yang Fan, this deity, they did not dare to overstep even a fraction; this seemed like a command carved deep within their Soul.

After explaining everything, the golden light of the Divine Decree slowly disappeared.

"Divine Master: Yang Fan"

"Divine Kingdom Area: One million square kilometers"

"Talent: F-rank Resource Talent (All resources in the Divine Kingdom accelerate growth by 10%)"

"SSS-Rank Talent: Evolution (Unique Talent, can accelerate Divine Kingdom Evolution, hidden.)"

"Believers: Barbarians (600)"

"Cultivation Method: Federal Body Refinement Technique"

"Faith Points: 17788 (Provides 0.0005 Faith Points daily)"

"Building: Moon Well (Produces a drop of Moon Dew every ten years)"

"Assets: Bodhi Precious Snake (X2210, First-Order Yao Beast), water lotus (X1000, F-rank Spirit Plant)"

Looking at the changes in his Divine Kingdom now, Yang Fan showed a look of satisfaction. Next, he was not prepared to continue purchasing resources; after all, he still needed to save Faith Points to accelerate the Evolution of the Divine Kingdom.

Because of the Awakening, today was the first time in several months that Yang Fan stepped out of his house. Feeling somewhat exhausted at this moment, he collapsed straight onto the bed and fell into a dream.

Sleeping until dawn, Yang Fan got up and only felt refreshed, his body seeming much sturdier.

Yang Fan had long anticipated this. Under the Evolution of a tenfold time flow rate, one day in the outside world was ten years in the Divine Kingdom. Coupled with the fact that it was now a period of rapid development for the Divine Kingdom, there were bound to be significant changes.

Yang Fan's consciousness entered the Divine Kingdom and found that the tribal population had reached 600, a full three-fold increase, nearly half of which were infants and youths of seven or eight years old.

This was thanks to Yang Fan placing quite a few antelopes around the tribe, making food very abundant. Coupled with the presence of the Moon Well, the mortality rate from illness had also decreased significantly.

In addition, due to cultivating the Federal Body Refinement Technique, both adults and children looked much sturdier and more energetic than before.

The Moon Well had also condensed a drop of Moon Dew, but at this moment Yang Fan was not prepared to sell it; the quantity was too small, and the listing network handling fee wear-and-tear was too high.

Besides that, the number of Bodhi Precious Snakes a hundred kilometers away had also doubled, but many were still only one meter long and were still underage baby snakes.

What shocked Yang Fan the most was the number of antelopes. Under his perception, the antelopes had actually approached 500,000.

However, the surrounding vegetation was consumed rapidly, and many antelopes began to starve to death, which allowed the population to trend toward a dynamic equilibrium.

Yang Fan ignored this; when all was said and done, there were still not enough hunters. As for the green vegetation, it would continue to grow, and the carcasses of the dead antelopes would further fertilize the land, bringing a hundred benefits to his Divine Kingdom with no harm at all.

The Divine Kingdom was thriving, and Yang Fan was confident that ordinary high school students with similar backgrounds to him definitely had not developed as well as he did.

Of course, he couldn't compare to a Genius like Luo Bing. The other party had a big Family supporting her behind the scenes, and those Advanced buildings were probably already deployed in her Divine Kingdom. The gap in initial resources was too huge; even with the existence of the SSS-rank Talent, the gap between the two remained like a chasm.

The development of the Divine Kingdom took time, and one couldn't become fat in a single bite. At this time, Yang Fan had returned to reality.

"It's almost time for class." Yang Fan thought to himself, took a helmet out from under the bed, put it on his head, and instantly entered the Virtual World.

"My dad bought me a Breeding Card yesterday. When I woke up today, I found that the believers had increased by 30 people. The effect is really good."

"Me too, but my initial population is a bit low, only 50 people."

"What does population count for? As long as resources are sufficient, upon graduating from high school, the minimum is tens of thousands, or even millions of population. What's truly important is how to make the believers stronger."

"Speaking of this, I'm not sleepy anymore. My old man transferred 50,000 Faith Points to me yesterday and let me buy the Federal Body Refinement Technique."

"Me too. My dad said this thing is definitely not a loss, and bought it for me at the very first moment."

"Let me tell you, the Ministry of Education rewarded me with an E-rank building. Guess what it is…"

As soon as Yang Fan entered the school address in the Virtual World, he felt a bustling atmosphere. After all, having just awakened to become a Divine Being yesterday, it was inevitable that everyone was so excited.

"Brother Yang, I've saved a seat for you." Zhang Pang waved at Yang Fan from the third row.

Yang Fan had just sat down when Zhang Pang couldn't help asking: "Brother Yang, you really stole the show yesterday with a C-rank evaluation. In the entire senior grade, apart from those big Family children, you are definitely in the top tier. Hurry up and tell your brother, what did the Ministry of Education reward you with?"

"100,000 Faith Points and a C-rank building." Yang Fan did not hide it, or rather, there was no need to hide it.

"As expected, you probably purchased quite a few good things yesterday, right?" Zhang Pang was full of envy. Given his Family conditions, he wouldn't mind these 100,000 Faith Points, but this was still a considerable amount of funds.

"It's alright." Yang Fan smiled indifferently.

"What did the C-rank building yield?"

"A Moon Well."

"Not bad, bro. You haven't even graduated from high school yet, and you're already making 3,000 Faith Points a month." Zhang Pang gave a thumbs-up.

Everyone was naturally no stranger to a universal-type building like the Moon Well. Even textbooks had once described how a low-tier deity built tens of thousands of Moon Wells in their Divine Kingdom as a long-term investment.

Just at this moment, a young woman with a graceful figure walked up to the podium. This person was Li Qingying, the homeroom teacher of Class 7, Grade 12, and a First-Order God.

"Hello, Teacher Li." All the students of Class 7, Grade 12 stood up and said in unison.

"Hello, students, please sit down." Li Qingying waved her hand, and a blue light curtain behind her instantly formed a blackboard. She then wrote down four large characters—Divine Being.
