Chapter 860: Rapid Upgrades! The Nine Sacred Realms!

"Master, there are a total of 9,854 divine stones; over three thousand were spent to acquire something you needed."

Within the Divine Realm, the God of Darkness transformed again into a delicately dressed Princess and handed a light orb to Lin Yan.

Lin Yan took it, then tossed another light orb at the God of Darkness.

The God of Darkness took it and looked inside—there were still vast quantities of Heavenly Realm items.

"So much!"

The God of Darkness was startled.

There were too many Heavenly Realm items inside, and all of them were useful to the Abyssal Demigods!

"How many Heavenly Realm deities did Master kill?!"

The God of Darkness couldn't help but feel stunned.

"Dispose of them, but don't release too many at once."

Lin Yan said calmly.

"Yes, Master!"

The God of Darkness bowed her head, hands hanging respectfully, obedient like a well-behaved child.

If her rivals saw this scene, they'd be dumbfounded!

Moreover, the God of Darkness had recently become obsessed with this role-playing.

If Lin Yan noticed even a hint of change in her expression or demeanor in her new attire, the God of Darkness would secretly rejoice, as if encouraged.

After Lin Yan left, she still maintained the Princess's appearance, demeanor, and mannerisms—even more like a Princess than Luo Ying had been.

"Judging by this, Master is even stronger than I imagined. Well then, I'll go all out."

The God of Darkness thought.

She planned to organize a larger-scale auction.

The Abyss and the Heavenly Realm were completely different.

In the Abyss, without the deterrent of overwhelming power, events like auctions simply couldn't be organized.

The Demigods wouldn't follow rules.

To make Demigods follow rules, only overwhelming power could serve as backing.

In the Abyss, the God of Darkness once again dispatched large numbers of agents to contact more Demigods and organize a larger auction.

In the Heavenly Realm, the Little Sprite and Gassia, along with the Little Sprite Clara, split into two groups and converted vast quantities of Abyssal items into divine stones.

Because they released only small quantities each time and chose different Divine Realms for each distribution, wherever they appeared, the items still sparked frenzied bidding.

As long as there was bidding, Abyssal items could fetch good prices.

Moreover, the Abyssal items Lin Yan later collected from the Demigods were especially rare in the Heavenly Realm, even including Abyssal items like the Soul-Weeping Flower.

This greatly accelerated the inflow of divine stones.

Also, the items Lin Yan needed appeared in large quantities.

After all, later Abyssal items attracted higher-tier deities—such as those at the peak of the Third Tier, and once even a Holy Spirit sent by a suspected Fourth-Tier deity.

The higher the tier, the more likely they were to possess items Lin Yan needed.

In the blink of an eye, another week passed.

"The harvest is enormous."

After one auction ended, Gassia exclaimed in awe.

This auction not only secured five items Lin Yan needed, but also yielded nearly twenty thousand high-grade divine stones at once.

When Gassia handed over these gains, Weivela was also astonished.

"I suspect it's because the Radiant Tides are about to erupt; some powerful deities want to boost their strength now, to gain greater advantages during the Radiant Tides."

Weivela speculated.

"Yes, the Radiant Tides don't just allow collection of divine substances—there's also a strange energy within the Sun that, when absorbed, greatly benefits both the divine body and divine core."

Meivis also said.

Now, less than ten days remained until the Radiant Tides erupted.

And the items Lin Yan needed to reach the Fourth Tier had already surpassed half.

Collecting items through auctions was far faster than Gassia and the others previously traveling from city to city, asking Holy Spirits for information.

Because auctions themselves attracted vast numbers of deities.

These deities weren't low-tier—very few First-Tier deities came just for the spectacle; most were Second- and Third-Tier.

And when some deities needed Abyssal items but lacked sufficient divine stones, they often chose to barter with items they held.

This allowed Lin Yan to gather resources at an extremely rapid pace.

Of course, what could be collected now weren't especially rare.

A few exceptionally rare items would still require considerable effort.

But if things continued like this, Lin Yan's resources would be complete in no time.

Another day passed.

On this day, Meivis's body emitted a completely different fluctuation.

She had finally reached the Third Tier!

Joy appeared on Meivis's face.

"Meivis, you've reached the Third Tier."

Weivela was genuinely happy for her.

Among all the Sprite Goddesses, Weivela had the closest relationship with Meivis.

Meivis nodded firmly, then looked at Lin Yan: "Divine Lord, thank you!"
