Chapter 1016: Chapter 1016: Knowing There Are Tigers on the Mountain, Yet Heading for the Mountain Anyway
The situation among all the celestial divine beings had finally been stabilized, and the Immortal King had successfully refreshed the gods’ understanding of him.
Those who originally had a significant grudge against him and were ready to revolt to change the leader of the Divine Realm were temporarily calmed down.
If the other faction’s deities found out about the Immortal King’s dealings with other deities at this moment, they would definitely explode.
Why did he activate the array for instance entry ahead of time, why did he have them enter in batches, all to ensure that the other faction’s deities couldn’t find out the Immortal King had deliberately sent away the deities, trying to keep the Fu Xi Talisman under his sole control.
The Immortal King is indeed clever.
But the other faction’s deities are no pushovers.
The Immortal King didn’t explicitly forbid other deities from touching the Fu Xi Talisman.
He couldn’t bring himself to say such words.
But by deliberately assigning a lot of difficult tasks to other deities at this crucial moment, requiring them to complete within a specified time, this move appears rather deliberate.
To evade detection, he could only have them enter in batches.
The Immortal King’s people were the first to enter the instance for the production of the Divine Artifacts, and everyone knew it was to prepare the array in advance so that the deities competing for the Fu Xi Talisman could be killed within the instance.
"Oh, this Immortal King, even after so many years of no dealings, is still as shameless as ever."
"This guy may not have explicitly forbidden the gods from snatching the Fu Xi Talisman, but if anyone disobeyed orders and died outside, wouldn’t he turn around and say others sought their own doom? Quite a strategy."
Lin Yi could think of what Wo Zhiqi was saying.
You know, having a powerful martial soul as a companion is indeed good. Not only can it keep you company by chatting, but it can also offer strategies at critical times.
"How despicable that guy is doesn’t matter, what’s important is that now we have quite a few enemies, what should we do."
Although the number of people who just entered the secret realm was less than a hundred.
But they were all formidable, showing how much the Immortal King valued this operation.
Even if Wo Zhiqi took action, there were so many masters that it couldn’t be defeated.
Once the secret realm for obtaining the Fu Xi Talisman was opened, other faction deities would enter successively.
Among them, there were very few acquaintances, and even fewer who could form alliances, in such a situation, they might be defeated one by one, and all perish in the secret realm.
"What to do? Let’s play it by ear. Don’t you have a life-saving skill? At worst, take a beating and then use that thing, the Eight-Nine Mystical Skill, to escape."
Hey, that’s a good point.
Being skilled in many abilities is beneficial.
If Wo Zhiqi hadn’t mentioned it, Lin Yi almost forgot he had this ability.
"You know, this guy indeed has a promising future. Compared to normal people, he has countless chances to rectify mistakes."
It’s no exaggeration to say, just among the star 876, who dared to venture in besides gods of Lin Yi’s level?
Especially knowing the Immortal King had already sent many to set up traps inside, entering would be akin to courting death. No matter how much stronger than Lin Yi, no one would dare play this way.
Lin Yi smiled slightly, transforming himself into a deity of the Olympus faction and then activated the Gale Wings on his back, flying towards the entrance to the secret realm.
Amongst the floating debris in space, even the smallest fragments were as large as a dozen Lin Yi’s put together.
During flight, encountering these rocks was unavoidable.
However, none of these stones could approach Lin Yi. The moment they touched him, they would be shattered directly by Lin Yi’s [Eternal Guardian] skill.
Lin Yi’s attributes were exceedingly high, and the defense of [Eternal Guardian] was naturally beyond question. Against lifeless objects without any Power of Law, it was simply absolute defense.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Along the path Lin Yi traveled, the meteorites continuously ruptured, even turning into dust.
While Lin Yi was on his way, the various gods within the range of star 876 sensed the aura of the secret realm opening.
The Ancient Great God who owned the Fu Xi Talisman had long since fallen, and this rare external divine artifact had become an ownerless item.
Nevertheless, subduing this divine artifact was no small feat.
After successfully controlling the Three Realms and Six Paths, what the gods acquired wasn’t just resources and ruling rights over the celestial order.
There was also historical data spanning thousands of years.
According to historical records, divine artifacts possessed by Ancient Great Gods generally had sentient minds, which greatly increased the difficulty of acquisition.
To increase the success rate and to ensure survival post-acquisition, gods who managed to spare time to come would think of inviting trustworthy partners or deities from friendly factions to take action together.
As groups of varying numbers of gods gathered towards the secret realm’s entrance, the numbers of deities from each faction gradually became clearer as the range decreased.
However, none of these deities exhibited any malice on their faces.
After thousands of years of development, all regulations had been thoroughly refined.
It’s true that deities stood at the pinnacle of this world.
But deities still had many areas to elevate and hoped that when something precious emerged, it would fall into their own hands.
Unfortunately, resources were scarce like this newly emerged Fu Xi Talisman today.
Many gods wanted to acquire it, use it to enhance their own power, and defeat the Four Great Corpse Kings for rewards, but ultimately, only one would obtain the Fu Xi Talisman. If they fought to death over this equipment, the damaged interests would not be those of the gods?
For this reason, the Immortal King established corresponding regulations.
Competition is essential.
Good things are meant for those capable, without a doubt.
However, the manner of competition shouldn’t be too intense.
This rule had continued for thousands of years; these rules allowed gods to maintain a very calm attitude when seizing opportunities.
"Hey, you two big brothers, I didn’t expect to meet you here."
Upon spotting two gods of the Olympus faction traveling alongside him, Lin Yi immediately approached to greet them.
"Lord Helben, Lord Morris, seeing you here is truly wonderful."
With the Eye of All-Seeing, Lin Yi could, without the target’s awareness, accurately interpret the information of targets with strength close to his own.
Helben and Morris were both deities of the Olympus faction.
In their respective towns on the Olympus Star, they each held the position of City Lord.
Although the cities they managed were at the lowest level on the Olympus Star, they were quite famous.
Seeing that the deity Lin Yi transformed into was dressed identical to them, plus the fact that he accurately called out their names, they both immediately lowered their guard.
"You, who are you?"
You know, Helben, this guy, as described, is quite a courteous person.
Even sensing that the strength of the deity Lin Yi transformed into was inferior, he didn’t put on airs while responding.
