Chapter 1318: The Help of the Goddess of Life and the Goddess of the Ocean!

Facing the probing gazes of the two Great Gods, Lin Yan remained calm.

Yet, he said nothing.

After all, his core secret could not be revealed to them.

Even though the Goddess of Life clearly showed goodwill, and the Goddess of the Ocean seemed to as well, Lin Yan, as a transmigrator carrying a system, was not foolish enough to expose his core secret.

A few seconds later, the Goddess of Life's gaze returned to normal.

Clearly, she believed Lin Yan's words and accepted the fact that he was so powerful despite lacking a Great God's essence and Great God's body.

This was what a Great God was.

She would not dwell on trivial details.

Instead, she treated what she could not understand as fact.

Then, she used that fact as a foundation for her next plan!

The Goddess of Life said: "There are things I cannot tell you yet. In the Heavenly Realm, no new changes have occurred in countless years; though it is extremely prosperous, it hides great danger. Thus, my views and those of the Goddess of the Ocean have changed—we hope a new Great God will be born."

Lin Yan nodded slightly.

Even that ancient Law Master could deduce it.

Lin Yan had exchanged words with the Goddess of Life several times; naturally, he could deduce it too.

Yet, Lin Yan had never known which Heavenly Realm Great Gods had changed their views.

Now, Lin Yan knew.

The Goddess of Life, the Goddess of the Ocean!

But among the Great Gods who acted at the edge of the Heavenly Realm, there seemed to be one more.

As if sensing Lin Yan's question, the Goddess of Life added:

"Another is the Master of Order, but the Master of Order is unique—it is a born Great God."

"A born Great God?"

Lin Yan asked.

The Goddess of Life nodded and said: "Yes, it is equivalent to the embodiment of Order itself; from the moment of its birth, it was a Great God. Yet, it does not possess such strong self-awareness as we do. Its power and consciousness are bound by the Law of Order. After the Abyssal Great God's will intervenes, as long as the Light Great God does not deliberately block it, the Master of Order will inevitably descend its will to act. You can regard it as the Zhongli Sect!"

Lin Yan understood.

The Goddess of Life added: "The Earth Mother and the Lord of Darkness are in a neutral state. The Light Great God, the War Great God, the Lei Ting Lord, and the Ice Great God hold views opposite to ours."

Lin Yan understood.

In other words, the current Heavenly Realm Great Gods are divided into three factions.

Supportive faction: Goddess of Life, Goddess of the Ocean.

Zhongli Sect: Earth Mother, Lord of Darkness, and the Master of Order, who can also be regarded as Zhongli Sect.

Opposing faction: Light Great God, War Great God, Lei Ting Lord, Ice Great God.

The Goddess of Life continued: "Among the opposing Great Gods, the Light Great God leads. From my guess, the Abyssal Great God's side likely has the Light Great God's support."

Lin Yan grunted.

The Goddess of Life added: "But your strength has exceeded their expectations. After the Abyssal Great God's failure, with us here, no other being will dare act against you for now. Your task now is to ascend to the Great God position as soon as possible. How much more accumulation do you still need?"

Lin Yan had previously calculated this specifically.

To successfully break through to Great God, he needed at least a thousand drops of Level 20 Divine Power, and one drop of Level 20 Divine Power meant 6.25 million high-grade Divine Stones.

A thousand drops of Level 20 Divine Power meant 6.2 billion high-grade Divine Stones!

Even after selling the divine matter within the Ancient God Armor, and with Venerable Tianlan "lending" Lin Yan five thousand ten-thousand high-grade Divine Stones,

Lin Yan still lacked five to six billion high-grade Divine Stones.

The accumulation required to become a Great God was immense.

So immense that a Law Master needed countless years to gather it.

Lin Yan's current accumulation was clearly far from sufficient.

There was no help for it—his system, no matter how extraordinary, only worked for his Flame form.

Resources for his Divine Body form still had to be collected by himself.

From the tone of the Goddess of Life's words, was she preparing to help Lin Yan?

Yet, Lin Yan himself was not in much of a hurry.

His Flame form already possessed Great God-level combat power. Now, Lin Yan intended to stabilize it first, then choose a Law to imprint his Law Seal.

Becoming a Great God in Divine Body form—since his accumulation was insufficient, he wasn't in a rush.

As for the other Great Gods' conspiracies and schemes?

Lin Yan, possessing Great God-level combat power, was not worried.

So, Lin Yan paused, and did not immediately state the number.

Seeing Lin Yan say nothing, the Goddess of Life did not waste words—she simply pulled out a glowing orb and handed it to Lin Yan.

"I haven't stored many high-grade Divine Stones. This is nearly all my collection. See if it's enough."

The Goddess of Life said.

Lin Yan took the glowing orb and scanned it with his Divine Core—it contained a full two billion high-grade Divine Stones!

Divine Stones are condensed from non-directed faith energy.
