Chapter 1564: Time Flows Like a Song!

Time flows like a song.

As the entire world flourished and reached its peak, the laws began to seep downward.

In the blink of an eye, another ten million years passed.

On this day, the Goddess of Life leaned against Lin Yan and whispered softly: "Lord Yan, fate is truly strange—Daelora has lived countless eons, yet never before have the past few thousand years felt so full and joyful; the endless ages before now seem utterly dull."

Lin Yan nodded slightly.

"The Law of Fate has grown even stronger. Won't Lord Yan release it?"

Asked the Goddess of Life.

Lin Yan shook his head slightly and said: "Fate… must remain under my control alone."

Yes, the Law of Fate had grown ever stronger.

Yet no deity had ever attempted to seize control of the Law of Fate.

The reason was simple.

All these deities knew the Law of Fate was destined for Lin Yan.

In the current Heavenly Realm, the laws had grown ever stronger; if Lin Yan opened the qualification of Supreme Deity, the number of Supreme Deities in the Heavenly Realm could at least double.

Yet Lin Yan still had not opened the qualification of Supreme Deity.

Venerable Tianlan had given the Law Lords an explanation, and none of the Law Lords dared to show impatience—they all quietly gathered strength, waiting for the day Lin Yan would open the qualification of Supreme Deity.

In fact, the current Heavenly Realm could now accommodate several more High Deities.

The Goddess of Life, the Goddess of the Ocean, and others were already extremely close to becoming High Deities.

Once Lin Yan opened the qualification of High Deity, they could become High Deities at the fastest possible speed.

As for the Goddess of Eternal Night, Weilala, and Lin Yan's Sacred Maiden Qing Ling and Meng Ying—they had only become Supreme Deities tens of millions of years ago, and still had a long way to go before reaching High Deity.

Originally… the gap had not been this large.

But now the threshold for High Deity had risen again.

As the tide rises, the boat rises with it.

In fact, the qualifications for deities in the Heavenly Realm had also become higher.

The current First-Tier Deities were incomparably stronger than the First-Tier Deities of the past.

Correspondingly, it was no longer easy for mortals in the Sacred Realm to become deities.

Even after becoming deities, they would become stronger.

Above the Sacred Realm, the divisions of the Pseudo-Deity realm had become far more detailed.

It was as if an entirely new major realm had been added.

This was inevitable.

And as Lin Yan continued to harvest the Abyss, his Flame Form and Divine Body Form had both grown to an immense level.

After bringing the entire world under his control, Lin Yan was in no hurry to break through to the next realm.

Reaching the next realm was not easy.

His Flame Form would eventually reach it, for he could repeatedly harvest the Abyss; though now the Evolution Points required to ascend one level had become enormous, given enough time, he could still accumulate them.

Lin Yan gradually came to appreciate the joys of an eternal life—and even more so, he could enjoy more joys than other eternal beings.

For other eternal beings, like the Lord of Light, were constantly worried whether they could achieve true eternity; after being taught a lesson by the Shadow, they were forced to suppress the development of the Heavenly Realm, and lived unhappily.

But Lin Yan would not.

No matter how powerful a force, it could not erase Lin Yan—he had already achieved true eternity himself.

All things lay under his control.

Thus, he rarely felt the urge to evolve into the next stage.

Instead, he spent each day savoring life, occasionally sitting atop the world's peak, gazing down upon the lives of billions on distant planets within the starry sky.

This observation was not merely to pass the time.

It allowed Lin Yan to understand the workings of the entire world with greater precision.

Ordinary mortals were not ants—they too were part of the world, and deities themselves had once been mortals.

They carried within them distinct traces of this world.

And the development of different civilizations across the stars brought Lin Yan amusement.

After tens of millions of years, several civilizations had developed highly advanced technologies.

Of course, influenced by the deities behind them, these civilizations' technologies were not pure science, but leaned toward magical technology.

Some technologies even emerged capable of participating in divine wars.

Of course, only very primitive ones.

But if left to develop unchecked, perhaps one day such a civilization might truly invent more powerful god-killing technology.

Yet the deity behind that civilization would not allow such a thing to happen.

So that civilization was tragically extinguished.

In fact, on some planets, early signs of martial cultivation had begun to emerge.

But whenever such signs grew stronger, they were mostly crushed.

Lin Yan did not interfere.

Though his own Flame Form was an aberrant deity, his Divine Body Form was not.

And the Heavenly Realm's power system had long been fixed—there was no need for another system.

Thus, in the blink of an eye, a billion years passed.

On this day, the Dark Universe finally awakened completely.

"Lift the restrictions on Supreme Deity."

Lin Yan spoke to Venerable Tianlan.

"Mm!"

Venerable Tianlan nodded.
