“The question is, is this Authority of mine authentic?”

Qin Feng temporarily ignored Qin Xiaoyou.

After the Trial was completed, Qin Feng learned quite a few things from Qin Xiaoyou's memories, and these things would determine the key to his future actions!

"Originally, I wanted to head to the Order Land as soon as possible."

"But now it seems… if I rush to the Order Land, I might very likely be intercepted by that Qin Wuyue."

"She has been developing for over twenty cycles, a full two hundred plus years…"

"The current me is definitely not her match."

Qin Feng felt a bit of a headache.

Of course, future matters can be dealt with later. For now, let's clear up the questions that can be resolved first.

When Qin Feng's mind returned, he felt that Asha Hess was still standing behind his right side, bowing her head respectfully.

"Hess, do you know anything about Qin Wuyue?"

Qin Feng asked first.

A smile appeared in Asha Hess's pale golden eyes, and she shook her head slightly: "My understanding of her is now the same as yours."

This statement surprised Qin Feng a little.

He had thought that Asha Hess knew everything about him like the back of her hand…

"Inheritor, I only began to pay attention to you from the moment you obtained the Eye of Judgment."

Asha Hess pursed her lips and chuckled softly: "And you obtaining the Eye of Judgment was in your previous life."

Putting it that way, Qin Feng understood.

Before he obtained the Eye of Judgment in his previous life, Asha Hess hadn't paid any attention to him at all.

Naturally, she didn't know anything about his past either!

Qin Feng nodded: "Then is there any way for me to know what happened in my previous cycles?"

Asha Hess: "It's simple. After heading to the Order Land, try to find a way to enter the 'Reincarnation Temple'. The power of the Reincarnation ancient god can allow you to view all your pasts, but… to enter the Reincarnation Temple, there is still a tiny threshold."

"A tiny threshold?"

Qin Feng sighed helplessly: "I hope it's not 'a billion tiny' thresholds… By the way, Qin Wuyue mentioned something about a 'Minor Authority'… Is her blood source ancient god Authority the same concept as my Trial Authority?"

Asha Hess shook her head slightly: "Naturally not. I have never heard of the Minor Authority she spoke of; perhaps it is a term circulated privately among some player groups…"

"In fact, the so-called 'finger of the blood source ancient god' that she possesses is merely a mass-produced imitation, providing only rule-based abilities that possess partial functions of an Authority."

"In Ancient God Language, this type of item is referred to by the specific term 'servant seal'."

"Of course… this name is only stated from the perspective of the ancient gods and their attendants."

"Later players likely didn't know its true name, so calling it 'Secondary Divine Authority', 'Proxy Divine Authority'… or 'Minor Authority', etc., all refer to this object."

Hearing this, Qin Feng fell silent for a moment.

servant seal? This is quite interesting.

"That's true." Qin Feng thought for a moment: "When players obtain this type of item, the ancient god wouldn't just tell the player that this thing is called a 'servant seal', right?"

"In order to make players think they have obtained something extraordinary, they would naturally want to make it sound more high-end…"

"And because the culture of every civilization and every race is different, the names that eventually evolved are quite varied."

"Then… what about this Eye of Judgment of mine? Is it authentic?"

This point did not require Qin Feng to ask. Asha Hess had already thoughtfully explained: "Inheritor, your Authority of Judgment is a Primordial-Level Authority, different from those… otherwise, I would not be able to come to pay you a visit."

Qin Feng was still a bit unaccustomed to her use of the word 'visit'.

He smiled helplessly: "Then I must be quite lucky? I first obtained the blood source ancient god's 'servant seal', ended up giving that servant seal to someone else, and finally obtained a real ancient god Authority?"

Hearing this, Asha Hess smiled and shook her head: "How could a true ancient god Authority be obtained merely through good luck?"

Qin Feng recalled: "Is that so? I feel the difficulty wasn't particularly high… Of course, it was difficult, but I just feel it doesn't reach the level of the Trial Authority."

Asha Hess nodded slightly before him: "Is there a possibility that there are many prerequisites to obtaining a true Authority? And these prerequisites were already met in your past cycles…"

"Of course, I do not know the specific circumstances. In any case, since you have obtained the Eye of Judgment, you have gained the recognition of the Authority…"

Hearing this, Qin Feng nodded slowly.

It seems if I want to learn more, I can only wait until I go to the Order Land and see if I can enter the 'Reincarnation Temple'.

Then, Qin Feng chatted some more with Asha Hess about the 'servant seal'.

This thing, while called a 'servant seal', actually doesn't have any strong binding force.

It's just that after obtaining a servant seal, a player will be registered in the ancient god temple that the servant seal belongs to, basically becoming a high-ranking member of that ancient god temple.

"servant seal sounds a bit humiliating."

"But in fact, anyone who has obtained a servant seal has a very high status in the Order Land…"

"In a sense, they can indeed be considered the spokespersons for the ancient gods."

It is easy to imagine. If Qin Feng had rushed to the Order Land without knowing anything… he would very likely have been hung up and beaten by Qin Wuyue!

"By the way, what about this thing?" Qin Feng suddenly thought of something and pulled an item from his waist. It was that 'soul Reaper · White Sprout Blade'!

"This thing is said to be a former Authority wielder… What is her background?"

Qin Feng fiddled with the dagger in his hand: "Is her soul Authority authentic?"

Asha Hess smiled helplessly: "Just a servant seal. However, this weapon is still quite good for you right now."

So that was it. In other words, the original form of this 'soul Reaper' was an existence of the same nature as Qin Wuyue. It's just that Qin Wuyue belongs to the Blood Origin Temple, while this White Sprout belongs to the Soul Temple.

"Then what did she do to be turned into a weapon?"

This matter is truly terrifying to think about!

What Qin Feng didn't expect was that Asha Hess actually provided an answer to this question.

She pondered for a moment and said: "I have not heard of such a situation either. But since it is a reward given by the Path to the End, then surely she must have violated the 'original agreement' to suffer such a punishment."

Qin Feng asked in confusion: "original agreement?"

"Shh…" Asha Hess looked at him cautiously with her pale golden eyes. She extended a finger like white jade and blocked it in front of Qin Feng's mouth: "Remember, never use the Ancient God Language to speak the name of this agreement. This is not something you should know yet… but you need to know that the birth of the God Forsaken Game came from this agreement."
