Chapter 1287: The Shocking Minimum Potential of Humanity! Su Yuan About to Return!

Chapter 1287: The Human Race's Astonishingly Low Potential! Su Yuan is About to Return!

Before Zhou Zhou stood a divine script forged from magical elements.

[I shall arrive in the Prairial Empire shortly, to serve the Emperor. — Master of the Forbidden Spell, Su Yuan]

"Su Yuan?"

Zhou Zhou froze, turning his gaze toward the towering statue of the Forbidden Spell God standing afar.

Is Su Yuan coming to my empire?

No! That's not the most important thing. What truly matters is that He has declared Himself the Master of the Forbidden Spell?!

Has Su Yuan truly ascended to the rank of God?!

Zhou Zhou took a deep breath, a smile spreading across his face.

If what they say is true, this might well be the first being of divine rank in the history of the Human race.

Su Yuan has, throughout all of human history, remained nameless and obscure.

And now, suddenly, he's made a grand impact.

What a stunning surprise!

As to why they came at this moment, Zhou Zhou faintly sensed a possibility—perhaps they were drawn by the faith offered by their soldiers.

"Then, in that case—"

"The Human race may now proudly claim to be a high-born species."

A smile played upon Zhou Zhou's face.

Just moments ago, he had been wondering when the Human race would finally birth a being of divine rank, thereby earning its place among the high-born.

And now, it had happened—right before his eyes.

“Haha…”

Zhou Zhou couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Then, after a long while, he gradually suppressed the smile.

“You cannot be proud!”

“Now, all the realms across the cosmos are engulfed in a war among the myriad races. A high-bloodline race with only one Supreme God-level being is merely the weakest among the high-bloodline races.”

“Even if we hold a slight advantage in the war among the races, it is still insignificant—there is nothing to boast about.”

“Only when our human-bloodline race reaches ten, or even a hundred, Supreme God-level beings—when we are truly on par with the top-tier bloodlines—can we finally consider ourselves secure and at ease.”

Zhou Zhou came to his senses and murmured to himself.

But then, suddenly, a question arose in his mind.

“Wait—that doesn’t make sense.”

"If I, as the master of the human race, created a supreme deity to elevate the human lineage, how could I not know?"

His brow twitched slightly.

"I think I now understand what's going on."

At that moment,

Zhou Zheng suddenly appeared beside him.

Zhou Zhou didn't flinch, and asked:

"What's happening?"

"According to the records of lineage inheritance stored in our minds,"

"Whenever a supreme deity emerges within a race, any species sharing a bloodline with that deity undergoes a transformation—its bloodline potential is enhanced, even elevated."

"And the fundamental reason behind this bloodline evolution lies in the divine realms and celestial stars."

Zhou Zheng pointed to the celestial stars of the Divine Realm in the sky, "When the Primordial God is born, the celestial stars of the Divine Realm undergo a fundamental transformation. Their radiance illuminates all realms, all worlds, and countless living beings."

"If a race is not descended from the same bloodline as the Primordial God, even under the illumination of these celestial stars, they will feel no special effects."

"But if a race shares a bloodline with the Primordial God, upon being bathed in the divine light, their bloodline will gradually strengthen and ascend, eventually completing its transformation."

"Su Yuan, the Forbidden Spell God, has just recently ascended. Combined with the fact that light takes time to travel, the entire human race has not yet experienced a significant uplift at this moment."

"However, the Supreme Continent lies at the very center of all realms and thus receives the divine light first. Therefore, the human subjects on the Supreme Continent should have already undergone their transformation."

"Last night, I received a report stating that certain human subjects unexpectedly experienced a surge in potential, and even their power levels have broken through to new realms."

"Unquestionably."

"It must be the effect of Su Yuan's ascension to Primordial God."

Zhou Zheng said.

"Really?! By how much has their potential increased?"

Zhou Zhou's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked,

"According to Zero's statistics, roughly around half a stage."

Zhou Zheng replied.

"Half a stage?"

"Half a stage is actually quite impressive!"

Upon hearing this, a smile spread across Zhou Zhou's face.

The Chaos God Clan and the Herd God Clan only allow their subjects to reach a minimum potential of lower-tier gods when they possess fifty or more master god-level warriors from their own lineage.

Their first master god among the human race had already raised the entire human race's potential by half a stage—an achievement of great significance.

"What is our current minimum potential among humans?"

Zhou Zhou asked curiously.

Now, under Zheng Yuanqi's arrangement, every Huaxia race on the Highest Continent has joined the Praeyang Empire.

Thus, when Zhou Zhou now inquires about the lowest potential among the Huaxia people, it is essentially equivalent to asking about the lowest potential among the Huaxia people of the Praeyang Empire.

"Lowest?"

Zhou Zheng smiled slightly, and uttered four words: "Platinum Junior."

"Really that high?!"

Zhou Zhou's eyes widened in astonishment.

Recalling the past.

He still remembered the first ten soldiers he summoned—among them, the one with the lowest potential even had a Black Iron Junior-level potential.

Such a potential meant that once a person entered the path of transcendence, they would never be able to advance further.

Afterward, he had been overjoyed simply to obtain a Spirit Potential Talent Sphere of Platinum level.

Now the entire human race's lowest potential has reached Platinum Junior!

Wow.

An enormous leap!

"This doesn't even count the boost from Su Yuan's promotion to Master God."

"Otherwise, it should be Platinum Intermediate."

Zhou Zheng murmured in awe.

Zhou Zhou nodded.

Then he calculated it in his mind as well.

First, the Race Artifact—the Xuanyuan Divine Sword—boosts the potential of Sword Lords and their subordinates by one major tier!

Second, the Transcendent Lord's innate talent—the Divine Favor Body—raises both his own potential and that of his subordinates by one major tier!

Then came the race's ultimate artifact—the Sovereign of the Supreme Ruler, Sunlord, elevating both oneself and one's subjects to a whole new tier of potential!

Finally, the newly acquired race artifact—the Dawn Star—raising the potential of the entire human race and its subjects by one grand level!

With these four effects stacked together, the baseline potential of human subjects soared directly to Platinum Junior!

Absolutely terrifying!

And that's not even accounting for numerous other artifacts specifically designed to boost the potential of certain subject groups.

For instance, the ancestral statue of the Yellow Emperor’s forebears grants one effect: a tiered potential increase for the civilian occupation subjects of the Sun Empire.

Since this only benefits civilians, Zhou Zheng omitted it from his calculations.

"Baseline potential at Platinum Junior."

"Hmph."

"Simply looking at this figure, our human race is already quite formidable among the myriad tribes."

Zhou Zhou murmured to himself.

Among the myriad races, it is not uncommon for some to produce highly promising offspring.

Yet their baseline is equally low.

Take the Human race, for instance—those with the lowest potential are still at the level of Platinum Tier Junior. Such races are, in truth, exceedingly rare.

After all, a high baseline means a stable emergence of mid-to-high-tier race-level strong individuals.

A high ceiling may, in rare cases, yield super-strong beings of true god or supreme god rank.

But such occurrences are statistically improbable and inherently unstable—like drawing lottery tickets.

Thus, compared to the latter,

Zhou Zhou, who dislikes gambling, actually prefers the former.

"By the way."

"I didn't come here specifically to explain my reasons—rather, I wanted to tell you something else."

Zhou Zheng said.

"What is it?"

Zhou Zhou casually asked.

He was still thinking about the matter of the lowest potential of the people in his territory reaching the level of Platinum Junior.

It was utterly exhilarating.

"The Primordial Emperor has awakened."

Zhou Zheng said.
