Chapter 1067

Ancient Gods refer to a specific class of deities, extraordinarily powerful, and because the laws of that era differed somewhat from those of today, each Ancient God possessed, to some degree, some forbidden power.

Of course, in today's Heavenly Realm, there is no trace of Ancient Gods—no one knows if they've all perished or gone into hiding.

"Mavis, they dare to imagine more than we do!"

In the Divine Realm, Vivera heard the gods' discussions and said involuntarily.

Now, the entire Heavenly Realm has entered a collective daydreaming mode.

Some gods, having moved from initial disbelief to reluctantly accepting the evidence, began fabricating explanations for why Lin Yan was so powerful and why his growth rate was so terrifying.

Even gods couldn't imagine that Lin Yan himself was fire—a mass of fire endowed with a system!

Moreover, on the Continent of Gods, there is no such thing as reincarnation.

Thus, these gods' daydreams closely resembled Vivera's original speculation.

They all believed Lin Yan had once been an immensely powerful deity who, after being wounded and falling into slumber, had now awakened and was rapidly returning to his peak.

Only this explanation made sense for why Lin Yan's growth rate was so terrifying!

Why could Lin Yan achieve what not a single god in all history had ever accomplished—breaking through the Fourth Tier in thirty seconds!

As for just how powerful Lin Yan had once been, these gods' imaginations ran wild.

Ancient God was merely one possibility.

Some gods even speculated that Lin Yan might have been injured in a failed attempt to ascend to Supreme Godhood.

After all, according to these gods' logic, Lin Yan had once been terrifyingly powerful—what kind of enemy could have inflicted wounds severe enough to keep him in slumber for so long?

In short, the Heavenly Realm gods' daydreams grew from initially conservative to increasingly extravagant.

So extravagant that even Vivera felt her own imagination was too limited.

And on this day, the Divine Realm of the Eternal Night Goddess finally roared into the Elven Divine Domain!

"Open the Divine Realm!"

Vivera had long received Lin Yan's command and, together with Mavis, widened the entrance to Lin Yan's Divine Realm.

Then, before all eyes, the massive Divine Realm of the Eternal Night Goddess entered Lin Yan's even larger Divine Realm!

"The Divine Realm of the Eternal Night Goddess has merged with the Flame Lord's Divine Realm!"

One god, witnessing this, spoke in a daze.

"This clearly means the Eternal Night Goddess has truly joined the Flame Lord's divine lineage—unbelievable! Now the Flame Lord's divine lineage truly has two Fourth-Tier gods!"

"How envious—I wish I could have a divine lineage this powerful!"

"…"

"Now I'm even more convinced the Flame Lord must have once been a terrifyingly powerful High God—otherwise, the Eternal Night Goddess herself is Fourth-Tier; even if rescued by the Flame Lord, why would she not only surrender her Eternal Night Empire but also join his divine lineage?"

Said a Third-Tier god.

Clearly, the merging of the Eternal Night Goddess's Divine Realm into Lin Yan's had sparked considerable commotion and heated discussion.

"Vivera, hello, I'm Nina—we'll be neighbors now, just call me Nina!"

In Lin Yan's Divine Realm, the Eternal Night Goddess had emerged from the underground chamber and greeted Vivera.

They had met before, but never spoken.

Vivera had a gentle personality, and the Eternal Night Goddess was likewise pleasant—before Vivera, she showed none of the arrogance befitting a Fourth-Tier deity, and the two goddesses chatted amiably.

"Nina, let me help you stabilize your Divine Realm."

Vivera said.

"Yes, good—my Divine Realm has many useless areas; I couldn't remove them before, but now's the perfect time to discard them."

The Eternal Night Goddess said.

Mavis soon arrived to assist as well.

The three goddesses together fixed the Eternal Night Goddess's Divine Realm beside Vivera's, adjacent to the central region.

Then, the Eternal Night Goddess began discarding vast areas of her Divine Realm that were now useless to her.

This triggered a scramble across the Elven Divine Domain.

Useless to her, but highly valuable to many First- and Second-Tier gods.

After discarding so much, the remaining area of the Eternal Night Goddess's Divine Realm was roughly the same size as Vivera's.

Vivera knew this was intentional on the Eternal Night Goddess's part.

Of course, within Lin Yan's vast Divine Realm, her own realm didn't need to be so large.

All defensive zones were unnecessary—Lin Yan's Divine Realm's defenses were already terrifyingly strong.

Nor was there need to construct basic cosmic rules.

Lin Yan's Divine Realm had already established the entire framework—the Eternal Night Goddess only needed to retain a few core areas.

Of course, the area remained substantial.

After the Eternal Night Goddess's Divine Realm merged, the star representing Lin Yan in the Star Map immediately grew much brighter.

To those on the Continent of Gods, it was merely a single star.

But slightly stronger gods could roughly discern several kinds of starlight within it.

These starlights had merged into one, hence its intense brightness.

"There are seven stars altogether—so the Flame Lord's divine lineage currently has only seven gods."

A Third-Tier god read the number of starlights and said.

"The Flame Lord is so powerful, yet his divine lineage has only seven gods? Even a random Fourth-Tier Zunzhu's lineage has at least twenty gods, let alone a preparatory divine lineage—this suggests the Flame Lord's original lineage may have disbanded. I wonder if there's any chance I could join his divine lineage."

Another Third-Tier god's eyes gleamed.

Though they knew it was unlikely, some gods still clung to a sliver of hope.

What if the Flame Lord decided to expand his divine lineage?

Holding this thought, many gods stayed behind, hoping to meet the Lord of Flame.

Yet, they were destined to be disappointed.

Because although Lin Yan's divine system had many positions, he would never casually accept newcomers.

After establishing the Great Divine Nation, Lin Yan's divine system could not accept male gods.

If it were a servitor divine system, there might be some possibility.
