Chapter 1452: The Water Has Risen

Time flies!

In the blink of an eye, decades passed again.

Within the Heavenly Realm, prosperity had reached extreme heights.

The power of every Heavenly Realm deity was growing rapidly.

New deities were continuously emerging.

The entire Heavenly Realm had entered a state of extraordinary flourishing.

After being brought under the unified jurisdiction of the Pantheon, high-yield crops such as potatoes and sweet potatoes, along with Lin Yan's improved high-yield rice, became universally adopted.

Coupled with the bonus from the Title of Civilization's Flame, grain production surged.

Under strong state encouragement of childbirth, the population of the entire Pantheon Continent exploded.

The faith energy the Pantheon Continent could supply to the Heavenly Realm was also increasing rapidly.

Recently, the deities of the Heavenly Realm had all been discussing one thing.

That was the continuous rise in the number of fourth-tier deities.

Moreover, the difficulty of reaching the fourth tier was steadily decreasing.

Countless divine lords who had been stuck at the peak of the third tier for tens of thousands of years had all broken through to the fourth tier.

"The water in the Heavenly Realm has risen."

One deity sighed.

Yes, the water in this great pool known as the Heavenly Realm had risen!

The cake had grown larger!

This expansion was not only reflected in the constant strengthening of all laws.

As the laws strengthened, rules continuously branched out.

Precisely because of this, the difficulty of reaching the fourth tier had decreased.

And when this change progressed further, the laws themselves would begin to branch out.

At that time, the difficulty of becoming a Law Lord would also drop.

Of course, reduced difficulty did not mean the Law Lords would become weak or their power diminish.

On the contrary, the power of these Law Lords would actually increase!

Not only had their numbers grown, but their strength had increased too!

This was change!

It was like a pyramid.

Originally, a pyramid was only a hundred meters tall, so everyone's reachable height was limited.

But now, this pyramid had reached a kilometer high—wouldn't the number of people it could accommodate increase N-fold?

Wouldn't the heights these fifteen individuals could reach also skyrocket?

Within Lin Yan's divine realm, things had become especially lively.

The Holy Maidens were gradually becoming deities and coming to serve their god.

The Flame Empire had also trained many new Holy Maidens.

However, the treatment of these Holy Maidens was not as good as that of Meng Ying and the others.

In fact, the Flame Empire was now primarily overseen by the Eternal Night Goddess and the others.

Lin Yan had not cast much attention upon them.

Now, Lin Yan's gaze was upon the entire Pantheon Continent.

No—the entire world.

Lin Yan was beginning to understand the feelings of the Ocean Goddess and the others.

Time was endless.

And with his enemies, crushed by his aura, all lying dormant, Lin Yan had not fought in a very long time.

Indeed, his enemies were afraid, hiding and refusing to emerge—who could he fight?

Though these enemies might be brewing some conspiracy, Lin Yan was utterly unafraid.

Lin Yan's life remained quite fulfilling.

Certain exchanges with the goddesses were, of course, part of life.

He was not a god devoid of desire.

Each goddess had her own unique traits.

And they were utterly flawless.

Even after spending billions of years with them, he would never grow weary.

Occasionally, Lin Yan would remain in his divine realm for many consecutive days, lavishing attention upon his goddesses in turn.

As the Supreme God, his body was immensely powerful.

The longest stretch had lasted several months straight within his divine realm.

For other deities, though time was endless, the growth of power remained vital.

A single insight into a rule could easily slip away over decades.

But for Lin Yan, he did not need to slowly comprehend rules and laws like other deities.

His power growth required little effort.

Thus, Lin Yan spent much of his time enjoying life.

Of course, Lin Yan also spent considerable time on other things that interested him.

For instance, he had specially carved out a region within the Void Lands, where he kept a Void Beast, and whenever he had free time, he would go check on its progress.

For example, Lin Yan occasionally uses Angesite to take a look at that peculiar Dark Main God.

Angesite's speculation was quite accurate.

Angesite had remained beside that Dark Main God for decades, yet the Dark Main God still sat motionless by the Sea of Darkness, like a statue.

Around her, there was no energy fluctuation whatsoever.

Angesite felt that this Dark Main God might not be strengthening at all—it seemed to simply be… staring into space?

No, describing it as "staring into space" wasn't accurate.

In short, this Dark Main God gave her an extremely strange feeling.

Angesite had fished beside this Dark Main God for decades.

She had reeled up many things.

Some peculiar creatures.

Some peculiar treasures.

Her strength had also grown rapidly.

After decades, her divine body had reached Level 15.

Both her divine grid and divine body were now Level 15.

This pace was by no means slow.

Of course, it paled in comparison to Weivela and the Eternal Night Goddess after Lin Yan helped them.

Now in the Heavenly Realm, even Meng Ying and the fox girl Sister Qing Ling had reached the Fourth Tier.

Because Angesite was beside this Dark Main God, Lin Yan could only secretly cast his gaze through the Holy Maiden Pact—he could not open any portal, or else the Dark Main God would sense it.
