Chapter 887

Lin Yan passed through five spatial gates in succession to obtain the three resources he needed.

In these five spatial gates, some or all of the gods had recognized Lin Yan.

Thus, Lin Yan's battle in the Elf Divine Realm had spread throughout the gods near these five spatial gates.

Ordinary gods marveled at Lin Yan's strength.

Yet, except for the god in the first space, the gods near the other four spatial gates all guessed Lin Yan's power to be at the Third Tier Gao Jie.

That is, a god with a 13th or 14th-grade Divine Core and Divine Body!

The reason for this judgment was clearly stated by the god lord beside the square-faced god.

If Lin Yan were a Divine System Lord, then among the four gods he killed, three were Second Tier and one was low Third Tier—no true Divine System Lord would need to act personally.

That was why the god lord held Lin Yan in such contempt!

That was why he dared to chase after him, trying to seize the divine substance on Lin Yan's person.

Wealth stirs the heart.

For gods, this saying also holds true—though the wealth that stirs a god's heart is no ordinary treasure.

It is divine substance, divine stones, and such things.

"No matter the situation, in thirty seconds, the other side could not have succeeded—either they failed, or abandoned it for other reasons. Even if the disturbance came from the Flame Lord, there's nothing to fear; it's even a good thing."

Said the square-faced god lord.

As he spoke, the two god lords and five gods swiftly crept toward Lin Yan's direction.

These five gods were not weak.

Among them, two were Third Tier gods, and the other three were at the peak of Second Tier.

All five belonged to the divine systems of these two god lords.

The fourth wave of energy tides had begun; though weakened, it was still beyond the capacity of Second Tier gods to withstand.

Yet with a peak Third Tier god guarding them, the three were unharmed!

In the sun of the Heavenly Realm, their perception was greatly impaired.

But a peak Third Tier god still had a perception range of over ten kilometers.

When the fourth wave of energy tides began to recede, they finally located the vicinity of Lin Yan.

"The disturbance we sensed earlier was in this area—could it really have been the Flame Lord? Luo Xing, when you see him, strike with full force and capture him as fast as possible. This area has drawn the attention of other god lords; if more arrive, we won't be able to act."

Said the square-faced god lord.

The other god lord, Luo Xing, grunted and waved his hand.

Behind him, the five gods scattered, expanding their search radius.

Soon, the god assigned to track Lin Yan returned: "My lord, we've found the Flame Lord—but he's already noticed me!"

"Take us there, quickly, before he escapes!"

The square-faced god lord hurriedly said.

The two god lords followed the god toward one direction; half a minute later, in their perception, Lin Yan's figure appeared.

"He didn't run!"

The square-faced god lord murmured in surprise.

"Not running is better, isn't it?"

Nearby, Luo Xing said coolly.

As he spoke, Luo Xing flicked his hand lightly, and a star-shaped weapon, the size of a fist, shot toward Lin Yan.

Luo Xing acted without a word—he struck first!

The square-faced god lord did not move; this first strike was merely Luo Xing's test.

The fist-sized star shot forward in an instant, about to strike Lin Yan—when Lin Yan suddenly opened his eyes.

Then, the star froze as if paused, halting motionless before Lin Yan.

"Not bad."

Luo Xing gestured to recall the star.

But immediately, his expression changed slightly—no matter how he summoned it, the star remained rooted in place, utterly immovable.

"Spatial rules."

Luo Xing grunted.

"I have many more—if you want them, take them all."

As Luo Xing spoke, he swept both hands forward, and a flood of fist-sized stars surged toward Lin Yan.

These stars moved too fast, piercing through the solar currents of the sun, raining down in dense volleys upon Lin Yan.

His attack method matched his divine system's name.

Luo Xing!

This technique resembled a meteor shower from heaven, wielding immense power!

Divine power surged over Luo Xing's body as he slammed both hands forward.

The stars instantly accelerated several-fold, hurtling toward Lin Yan with unstoppable, terrifying force.

Each of these stars was no trivial threat.

Inside them lay divine substance, possessing strange properties—some divine substance naturally exerted strong suppression over spatial rules.

In fact, even a god skilled in spatial rules, even one who had sealed space, would have his barrier shattered outright by Luo Xing's assault.

A single one of these stars, if it struck the Divine Gods Continent, could reduce a ten-thousand-ridge mountain to shards.

The power of a peak Third Tier god was no ordinary thing!

As Luo Xing struck, the square-faced god lord also moved decisively.

As third-tier Divine Lords, they were the quintessential type—ruthless and silent.

If not of the same tier, they had no interest in speaking to the other at all.

The square-faced Divine Lord did not use a weapon.

Yet his attacks were more terrifying than those delivered with a weapon.

He pressed his hands down, and the ocean currents within dozens of kilometers around Lin Yan instantly halted.

Immediately afterward, the square-faced Divine Lord violently compressed these ocean currents, completely sealing off Lin Yan's surroundings.

Clearly, the square-faced Divine Lord sought to prevent Lin Yan from escaping, and also to stop the battle's energy ripples from spreading and drawing more Divine Lords.

No sooner had the square-faced Divine Lord completed the seal than he saw the countless stars driven by the Starfall Divine Lord hurtle toward Lin Yan.

"Hope you can hold on—don't die too quickly, or it won't be fun."

The square-faced Divine Lord thought, watching how sharp the Starfall Divine Lord's attack was.

They planned to severely wound Lin Yan first, then capture him, and finally strip the divine substance from his hands.

Originally, each had his own intentions.

During their pursuit of Lin Yan, the two Divine Lords encountered each other, and ultimately decided to join forces to divide the divine substance on Lin Yan's person.

After all, they had known each other before.

"He shouldn't die this easily—as long as he's got one breath left."

The square-faced Divine Lord thought again.

No sooner had the thought passed than he saw Lin Yan finally move.

Earlier, Lin Yan had merely opened his eyes—and one of the Starfall Divine Lord's stars had frozen in place.

This time, Lin Yan stood up.

"Boom!"

As Lin Yan rose, the surrounding space trembled slightly, emitting a silent thunder.

Immediately afterward, the Starfall Divine Lord's stars froze again, as if paused, all halting before Lin Yan.

"Indeed impressive! Break!"

Seeing this, the Starfall Divine Lord roared.

Within him, his divine energy boiled.

He reached out with both hands, snatching countless stars from the sealed space, forming a massive meteor hammer.

The Starfall Divine Lord gripped the other end of the meteor hammer with empty hands and slammed it violently toward Lin Yan.

The surrounding ocean currents were crushed by the blow, leaving a vast hollow.

"Can't hide the energy ripples anymore—go all out."

Seeing this, the square-faced Divine Lord abandoned attempts to seal the energy ripples and drew his weapon, preparing to attack.
