Chapter 790: Chapter 493: It’s Better When It’s Free!_2

Lis moved his body, and an unprecedented surge of vigorous strength flowed out from within him, involuntarily making him take a deep breath in astonishment and joy.

His body seemed to have undergone an invisible tempering, becoming not only tougher and stronger but also his perception of the surrounding environment exceptionally sharp.

Lis gently raised his hand, his fingertips feeling as though they could touch the subtle fluctuations in the air, an amazing sensation he had never experienced before.

It was the Divine Power flowing within the temple!

Lis was amazed to find that he could now clearly capture the Divine Power fluctuations that were once imperceptible, flowing slowly in his senses like a gentle stream.

If before Lis could only vaguely sense the aura of Divine Power, now it twinkled like stars in the distant sky within his perception.

“I understand your excitement, but you should come out and put on some clothes first!”

Adela’s voice rang out from the side, her words tinted with a hint of teasing.

Apart from the peculiar earring, as the controller of the Divine Power Baptism, Adela was well aware of the total amount of Divine Power Lis had absorbed.

As a Golden Rank Professional, the Divine Power Lis had absorbed and digested had already far exceeded his rank, not much less than that of some Legends.

But to Adela, there was only joy, for the more Divine Power Lis absorbed, the greater his potential.

Adela would’ve found it strange if he had absorbed less.

“Oh, right.”

Only then did Lis realize that he was completely naked.

His previous clothes were ordinary, and except for his [Sphinx’s Wisdom] and the storage ring he carried, regular clothes lacked the ability to resist the erosion of Divine Power and had naturally completely dissipated.

Lis didn’t mind and, under Adela’s smiling gaze, walked out from the Seven-colored Pool and dressed himself.

Although Adela appeared to be a young girl, about the same age as Daphne, she actually became a Legendary Strongman hundreds of years ago.

What hadn’t she seen?

It would’ve been better for Lis to act a bit more generously!

“You must have gained a lot by now, let’s leave this place.”

“Daphne is already waiting for you outside; she will take you to a place to rest.”

After watching Lis get dressed, Adela said with a smile.

She then led Lis out of the temple.

“Remember what I said, okay!”

Adela spoke with an implied meaning, and Lis could only respond with a smile.

He knew what Adela was referring to, but right now he couldn’t promise her anything; that would have to wait for the future.

Regardless, Lis’s gains this time were substantial enough.

He indeed owed a huge favor to Adela and the Elf Land!

By the time they arrived at the temple’s entrance, Daphne was already there waiting for Lis.

Adela didn’t come out but turned around and went back into the temple.

Daphne, although meticulously remaining by Lis’s side, kept whispering questions to him about what happened inside the temple.

She was very curious about why her sister Adela had invited Lis to the Elf Land.

Lis appeased her while looking at the charming Moon Elf girl with a somewhat pitying gaze.

Do you know? Your sister was just about to have you all wrapped up and sold to me.

But Lis did not bring up the matter to Daphne.

No matter whether Lis would choose to embark on the Path to Divinity, this was a tacit understanding between him and Elf Great Sage Adela.

It was better for Daphne not to know.

Daphne’s Talent was also quite important to the Elf Gods, but it was more a case of icing on the cake.

But even so, as the spokesperson for the Elf Gods in Gaia World, Adela didn’t choose to have Daphne trust the Elf Gods, but rather asked her to wait.

It could only be said that the Elf Great Sage was indeed no ordinary person, although it was unknown whether the Elf Gods knew about this, Adela’s actions alone were enough to manifest her Wisdom and strategy.

Fortunately, as things stood, Adela was already a firm and reliable ally for Lis.

While chatting with Daphne, Lis shifted his attention to the system panel.

Upon awakening from the Divine Power Pool and while getting dressed, Lis noticed a change in the [Sphinx’s Wisdom] he wore.

The aura of this Legendary Accessory had become much stronger, like a gemstone that has had the dust wiped away, beginning to shine with a unique brilliance.

Could it have absorbed Divine Power during the baptism just now?

Lis quietly pondered in his heart.

Since this Legendary Accessory could strengthen his power by consuming Divine Power, Lis had been thinking about where to get enough Divine Power, but it turned out that this had been taken care of now.

A double blessing!

Lis couldn’t help feeling a wave of joy in his heart, and then began to check the information in the system panel.
