Chapter 687: Residing in the Divine Realm! Each Situation!

"Vivela."

Lin Yan spoke.

This was the first time Lin Yan had spoken since gaining his divine body.

He had not spoken for too long.

In flame form, he could only transmit spiritual fluctuations—how could he speak?

The revelations to the priestesses were delivered through his divine core, and did not count as speech.

Thus, these three words he spoke sounded unusually raspy.

And this raspy voice gave Lin Yan's tone a unique magic!

At this, Vivian, who had just barely regained her composure, nearly froze again.

Not only was his soul enchanting and his appearance strikingly handsome, but even his voice sounded profoundly captivating!

Vivela felt she had been poisoned!

And the poison ran too deep—she could not extricate herself at all!

"Lord of Flame, how should I address you?"

Vivela suppressed her inner emotions and said.

Lin Yan said calmly: "You may call me… Lin Yan!"

Lin Yan!

This was the first time Lin Yan had revealed his name.

Of course, this was not Lin Yan's true divine name.

The true divine name is not a name per se—it is a special mechanism of true-name rules.

Lin Yan's true name had been deeply buried when his divine core was transformed, and he had hidden it exceptionally well, unlike other gods who split their true names apart.

Instead, he hid it within his flame core.

Other gods split their true names apart for one crucial reason: if not separated, during battles involving rule-level conflicts, fragments could be seized and used to decipher the true name.

Once a god's true name is deciphered, their weakness is effectively controlled by others.

Their downfall is already near!

Lin Yan's true divine name was extremely complex.

It consisted of thirty-six characters.

Of course, a true divine name cannot be arbitrarily lengthened.

Each character involves the power of rules.

That is, each additional character requires the god to expend tremendous power.

The true divine name is actually redefined when a god successfully consolidates their divine core. How strong can a typical god be right after their divine core forms?

Thus, most gods have true divine names of seven or eight characters, or at most a dozen.

Only gods who ascended beyond Third Rank in the Sacred Realm possess true divine names exceeding twenty characters.

Lin Yan, who upon transforming his divine core immediately possessed a Level 15 divine core and thus a thirty-six-character true name, was virtually unheard of throughout the Heavenly Realm.

Lin Yan had hidden his true divine name within his flame core, with not the slightest concern of leakage.

His flame form and divine body form are two distinct power systems; fighting in flame form poses zero risk of exposing his true divine name.

A god's personal name is generally the name they bore as a mortal.

For example, the Star God Isaac—Isaac was his name as a mortal.

In short, divine names are a discipline in themselves, even with specialized true-name rules—everything concerning gods is profound and vast!

"Lin Yan."

Vivela silently whispered the name in her heart.

Of course, even knowing Lin Yan's name, Vivela would still address him as Lord of Flame for a long time.

Even though she held deep affection for Lin Yan, in her eyes, Lin Yan was a mighty god far surpassing her.

Generally, in the Heavenly Realm, powerful gods address weaker gods by their mortal names directly.

But weaker gods address powerful gods by their divine titles, as a sign of respect!

"Thank you, Vivian. I hope to reside in your divine realm for a time, to conduct some analysis of it. Would you be willing?"

Lin Yan asked again.

Reside in her divine realm for a time?

Instantly, the elf goddess Vivela felt as if happiness had struck her down.

Over the past several months, Vivela had dreamed endlessly of meeting the Lord of Flame again.

For her, the Lord of Flame visiting her divine realm was already an unexpected joy!

But now, the Lord of Flame intended to reside in her divine realm for a time!

This was something she had never dared to dream of!

"Of course! I'll have them prepare quarters for you—stay in the upper level. You'll have a view of the entire divine realm. I'll grant you full access to the realm; analyze freely."

Vivela said, her voice trembling with excitement.

Lin Yan nodded and said: "Then, thank you."

Thus, Lin Yan took up residence in Vivela's divine realm, still maintaining his divine body form, analyzing her divine realm—unlike his analysis of the Winged Demon God's realm.

When analyzing the Winged Demon God's realm, Lin Yan could destroy it freely, dismantling it entirely to observe its inner rules.

But Lin Yan could hardly destroy Vivela's divine realm.

So he was destined to reside in Vivela's divine realm for a time.

And this, in truth, was exactly what Vivela most desired.

In order for Lin Yan to better observe the entire divine kingdom, Vivira specially raised the upper layer of the divine kingdom quite a bit.

She built a little flower cottage for Lin Yan by the lake.

However, Vivira soon discovered that Lin Yan would not enter the flower cottage at all, spending most of his time by the lake observing the entire divine kingdom.

Afraid of disturbing Lin Yan, Vivira generally would not go over, but instead swung on a swing not far away, holding the Book of Rules in her hands. She seemed to be reading, but in truth all of her attention was on Lin Yan.

And frequently, as she watched, the corners of her mouth would curl into a faint smile.

Lin Yan's arrival made Vivira feel that life had taken on new meaning, brimming with boundless joy.

Even if Lin Yan only had a little time each day to chat with her for a while, Vivira was already very content.

Being able to see Lin Yan like this every day filled Vivira's heart with sweetness.

"If only he could stay here forever!"

Vivira could not help thinking.

Whether it was the Celestial Realm, the Continent of the Gods, or the Abyss, time flowed the same.

It was not as some myths described, where one day in the heavens equaled a year on earth.

While Lin Yan was residing long-term in Vivira's divine kingdom, the war in the Abyss was still ongoing.

Succubus Natasha kept expanding the scale of the war.

She was now attacking the layer of the Abyss beneath the Mobis Abyss.

And in the Dark Abyss Prison, Angst was still comprehending the rules of light and darkness.

The aura of darkness on her body grew ever denser.

In Angst's feeling, she would very soon break through to the Third Rank of the Holy Domain.

No, not the Holy Domain, but the Dark Holy Domain!

Yet Angst was not afraid in the slightest.

Because once she comprehended the rules of light and darkness, darkness would never be frightening again.
