Chapter 772
The terrifying energy within the Sun of the Heavenly Realm had little effect on Lin Yan's flames, and instead saved him considerable effort.
"Almost enough."
Lin Yan thought.
Then Lin Yan began to move.
This fire net, tens of thousands of kilometers in diameter, swiftly sank deeper into the Sun of the Heavenly Realm.
Any divine substance along the path of this fire net was directly tossed into his storage space.
This method was incomparably faster than how the gods of the Heavenly Realm operated!
First, the gods of the Heavenly Realm dared not venture too deep into the Sun.
Second, their sensory range within the Sun of the Heavenly Realm was extremely limited.
Thus, a typical Second-Rank god like Vivela would stay in the Sun of the Heavenly Realm for over ten years each visit, with the longest stay lasting over a hundred years.
Her maximum harvest in a single trip was just 10g of divine substance.
Here, "g" does not refer to one gram of the Gods' Continent.
It refers to one unit.
One g of divine substance, if measured by weight, was extremely heavy.
On the Gods' Continent, it weighed more than a mountain.
Divine substance corresponds to demonic substance.
For instance, an Abyssal Demon God typically used only a few hundred grams of demonic substance to support the shell of his divine body; to fully transform his divine body into demonic substance would require far more.
Not all divine substance is heavy—some is very light and possesses special functions.
In short, the concept of "g" for divine substance cannot be understood as weight—it is merely a standard unit of measurement used in the Heavenly Realm.
Lin Yan continued sinking deeper, and soon he made a discovery.
He found 1g of divine substance.
It was a highly radioactive divine substance.
Lin Yan immediately stored it in his storage space.
Lin Yan continued sinking deeper.
The deeper he went, the more divine substance there was.
And the more dangerous it became.
Yet, for a flame form, many of these dangers were negligible.
Of course, this also had to do with Lin Yan now being powerful enough.
If he had still been a divine flame when entering the Sun of the Heavenly Realm, he would never have dared to sink so deep.
Nor could he have burned stably in such a perilous place.
While Lin Yan sank into the Sun of the Heavenly Realm, Angest also sank into the Dark Sun.
The difference was that Lin Yan sank rapidly.
But Angest sank slowly.
That Dark Sun had a diameter of only a few hundred kilometers.
The Sun of the Heavenly Realm's diameter was more than a hundred million times that of the Dark Sun.
Though Angest's descent was slow, she continued sinking steadily.
Naturally, the Dark Sun was not as dangerous as the Sun of the Heavenly Realm.
For Saint Realm Fourth-Rank Angest, it posed some challenge, but not an extreme one.
Thus, several more days passed.
In just these few short days, Lin Yan achieved tremendous gains.
His storage space now held a full 26g of divine substance!
In other words, Lin Yan had accomplished in days what Vivela once took over a century to achieve.
This was the convenience and power of a flame form.
"The density of divine substance here is high enough—I'll collect here."
Lin Yan thought.
Further down, the load on his energy points began to increase.
Clearly, the Sun of the Heavenly Realm still exerted some pressure on his flame form.
Lin Yan decided to collect divine substance at this depth.
The massive fire net, ten thousand kilometers in diameter, began sweeping back and forth within the Sun of the Heavenly Realm.
Lin Yan had not yet reached the core of the Sun of the Heavenly Realm, but the concentration of divine substance at his current depth was already extremely dense.
In less than a day, he collected 19g of divine substance.
This was already a tremendous harvest.
If he continued at this rate, Lin Yan would soon possess over a thousand g of divine substance!
And given time, he could collect even more divine substance!
In the Heavenly Realm, divine substance was also highly valuable.
Divine substance came in several varieties; the most common in the Sun of the Heavenly Realm was Flamegold.
It was a divine substance with high density and hardness.
Seventy percent of the divine substance Lin Yan collected was Flamegold.
"If I can gather a thousand g of Flamegold, I could forge a Flamegold armor or a weapon."
Lin Yan thought.
The Flame-Infused Golden Armor perfectly matches the Flame Divine Body!
The best divine weapons are mostly forged from divine substances.
The higher the content of divine substance in a divine weapon, the more powerful the weapon becomes.
Some weapons contain only about 30% divine substance; the higher-end ones reach up to half.
Different levels of divine substance content also represent different ranks of the weapon.
In the language of the Continent of Gods, this is the rank of a divine artifact.
Weapons forged entirely from divine substance are exceedingly fearsome.
Armor forged entirely from divine substance is even rarer.
Even some fourth-tier Divine Lords do not possess one!
But given some time, Lin Yan could rapidly gather the needed divine substances and forge armor that perfectly matches his Divine Body!
With a goal in mind, Lin Yan began expanding the flame's range without regard to energy point consumption, swiftly gathering divine substances.
And after another day in the Abyss of Darkness, Angesite finally plunged deep into the heart of the Dark Sun.
