The Growth of a God

Chapter 10: Book of Binding Gods (Part 1)


An hour later, in the office of the 749th Bureau.

"Thank you!"

Li Yun politely thanked Luo God as she reached out to take the warm water Luo God handed her.

Behind Luo God, Huo Dou leaned silently against the doorframe, only occasionally glancing sideways at the Book Spirit flying around Li Yun.

As for He Bo?

He sat at the head of the office, looking troubled about how to explain the recent events to his superiors.

Not just the "Dragon King" mentioned by Li Yun, but also the book that seemed to belong to the "Dragon King."

According to the standards of the 749th Bureau, that was unmistakably a Mythical Armament!

Even if this Mythical Armament didn't seem threatening, it was still the handiwork of an unknown Ancient God!

Since when did Ancient Gods become such common occurrences?

"Now, can you tell me what's going on?"

Despite being in a completely unfamiliar environment, Li Yun showed no fear.

Partly because of her character.

But also out of an ordinary person's inherent trust in an official institution like the 749th Bureau.

"To put it simply, you encountered a supernatural event."

"The Dragon King you encountered is a truly supernatural being."

"He saved you from Zhao E, and Zhao E obtained the power you saw from another supernatural being."

Summarizing Li Yun's experiences in a few words, Luo God curiously observed the book still floating in the air.

"But did that Dragon King really say he gave you this book?"

No wonder Luo God was so curious; it was her first time seeing a being as benevolent as the Dragon King.

Typically, Ancient Gods, whether resurrected or not, maintained an aloof attitude towards humans, whom they viewed as insignificant ants.

However, He Bo didn't seem too surprised by this.

After all, the 749th Bureau housed a similarly benevolent "living immortal."

"Yes, He said it was this little guy who chose me."

Affectionately stroking the spine of the Book Spirit, Li Yun said with a smile.

Here, Li Yun didn't mention that she actually got the book from Li Hao.

In her own speculation, the Dragon King likely took an interest in her brother and thus secretly passed him the book.

Much like Zhao E, who was also favored by a supernatural being, Li Yun felt their purposes were similar.

Unexpectedly, by a twist of fate, the spiritually endowed book ultimately chose her.

Thinking of this, Li Yun squinted, pondering whether Li Hao might have more dangerous items like these.

If so, she had to take them all away.

Such dangerous things indeed needed to be handled by professionals.

However, on second thought, if the Dragon King really took an interest in Li Hao, there seemed nothing she could do to prevent him from approaching Li Hao?

Slight carelessness in her little "actions" might even anger him.

[So, what on earth does that brat have that attracts beings of such a level?]

Li Yun had been aware of certain anomalies about Li Hao since they were young.

Premature maturity of mind, a body that never seemed to suffer injuries...

These were things Li Hao could hide from others but not from Li Yun, who grew up with him.

In fact, a significant part of Li Yun's interest in pursuing supernatural phenomena was influenced by Li Hao.

"This book is far from as simple as it appears."

At this moment, Huo Dou, who had been standing outside, took the initiative to speak.

"It is indeed a Mythical Armament..."

"And it's a Mythical Armament capable of imprisoning 'Gods.'

Under the astonished gaze of the others, Huo Dou slowly walked over to Li Yun and extended his hand toward the Book Spirit.

Surprisingly, the Book Spirit, which had refused to let anyone other than Li Yun touch it, voluntarily landed in Huo Dou's hand.

Whir!

A burst of light flashed, and the front page quivered.

Under the seemingly pained yet joyous gaze of the Book Spirit, the entire book began to warp and change.

When everyone came to, the once-modern hardcover book had transformed into an ancient book filled with old, mysterious air.

"This is its true form."

With an expressionless face, Huo Dou opened the first page of the Book Spirit, revealing a lifelike portrait.

"Zhao E?"

The sharp-eyed Li Yun instantly recognized the person in the portrait.

It was none other than Zhao E, previously turned into a gelatinous figurine by the Dragon King.

Behind Zhao E stood an indescribable, muscle-bound, ferocious being, seemingly roaring.

"This..."

Witnessing this scene, even He Bo couldn't help but stand up, shocked.

The indescribable being behind Zhao E was likely the Ancient God lurking in the shadows.

Even if it was just a fraction of the power granted by the Ancient God to Zhao E, it was enough to showcase the terrifying capability of the Book Spirit.

According to information publicly available from the 749th Bureau, only Gods could "imprison" other Gods in this world.

"It's not just about imprisonment..."

As if fearing he hadn't made a strong enough impact, Huo Dou softly added.

"Anything imprisoned by this book becomes part of its power."

Gently tapping the eye on the spine, Huo Dou's words were verified in the next second.

Whir!

The bear ornament hanging on Luo God's waist suddenly moved.

Soon, the bear shed its chain confines and jumped to the ground.

During this process, the ornament quickly expanded and changed, soon becoming a half-human-sized real bear.

"Ah!?"

Shocked, Luo God let out an instinctive cry.

But she was shortly captivated by the cuteness and docility of the half-sized bear.

"Isn't this Zhao E's power?"

Also stunned by this scene, it wasn't until now that He Bo realized the terrifying power of this Mythical Armament.

"Can this book... replicate superpowers?"

In total disbelief, Li Yun asked, gaping at the familiar sight.

"You can understand it that way."

Tilting his head slightly, Huo Dou ambiguously replied.

"As long as they are 'imprisoned' by this book..."

"No matter if they have a physical form, they ultimately become part of the book."

"To be honest, if the Ancient God behind Zhao E hadn't shown himself, I would even suspect it capable of imprisoning real Ancient Gods."

At this point, Huo Dou was sure no further explanation was necessary for He Bo to value Li Yun and the Book Spirit.

"It's truly... unbelievable!"
