Sure enough, Lin Yun was right. After "training" with the three women, his strength improved considerably, and the three women improved even more. Among them, Zi Yun, who had already cultivated to the Saint King realm, was now showing signs of touching the God Realm.

Perhaps it is related to the fact that Lin Yun's true form possesses the strength of a mid-level Divine Realm cultivator.

In short, although Zi Yun did not break through to the Divine Realm, her strength has improved dramatically. Lin Yun tried it and found that she was already comparable to some powerful and invincible Saint Kings in the Great World of Living Beings.

Xia Qingqing and Lin Mengmeng have also made great progress. Although they haven't reached the realm of gods, they are very close to becoming invincible saint kings.

"If you 'cultivate' like this a few times, perhaps you can really be brought to the realm of gods..." Lin Yun said in a serious tone. At this moment, he was really serious about this matter.

In the following days, Lin Yun also seriously "trained" with the three women many times.

"Buzz!"

Three months later, at the secluded training ground where Lin Yun and the three women were, a powerful aura soared into the sky.

However, before it could be fully released, Lin Yun blocked it with a wave of his hand.

Lin Yun looked at Lin Mengmeng with bright, piercing eyes.

Unexpectedly, it was Lin Mengmeng who broke through to the Divine Realm first.

There stood Lin Mengmeng, dressed in flowing white robes, sitting cross-legged in the void, her eyes closed. Her perfect curves and breathtaking beauty exuded an aura of grandeur, nobility, mystery, and transcendence.

"Mengmeng is about to break through to the Divine Realm!"

"Very good!"

Xia Qingqing and Zi Yun were also happy for Lin Mengmeng and said excitedly.

They already knew from Lin Yun that ordinary cultivators had several options for breaking through to the Divine Realm. Among them, breaking through to the Divine Realm by one's own strength was the most difficult, but also had the greatest potential. Naturally, they also wanted to take this path.

Lin Mengmeng's breakthrough not only made them happy for her, but also gave them hope.

"Little Tower!"

Lin Yun stretched out his hand, and a small tower appeared in his palm. At the same time, the spirit of the Heavenly Dao Tower understood his meaning and released a huge amount of pure power of heaven and earth, which flew towards Lin Mengmeng.

Lin Yun released a force to control the power of heaven and earth, trying his best not to let it dissipate. With his current control over the Blood Fiend Universe, it was not difficult for him to do this at this moment.

"This is?"

Xia Qingqing and Zi Yun were startled when they saw these energies of heaven and earth. They sensed that these energies were the same as the energy that had upgraded the Blood Fiend Universe that they had seen some time ago.

"This is a portion of the power of heaven and earth that the small tower intercepted when the Blood Fiend Universe was upgraded. Condensing a divine spark requires high-level energy; ordinary energy won't suffice..." Lin Yun explained to Xia Qingqing and Zi Yun.

Then, Lin Yun's gaze fell on Lin Mengmeng again.

Judging from Lin Mengmeng's past cultivation, she has a good talent for cultivation. However, it is unknown how many divine patterns Lin Mengmeng can condense this time.

At this moment, Lin Yun felt a mixture of anticipation and calm.

Naturally, he hoped that Lin Mengmeng's divine spark would be of a higher level and that she would have better talent. It wasn't that he hoped Lin Mengmeng could help him in the future; he just hoped that if something unexpected happened in the future, Lin Mengmeng would have stronger self-protection capabilities.

Of course, it doesn't matter if Lin Mengmeng's divine spark level is low.

One breath... two breaths... ten breaths...

Without any suppression, Lin Mengmeng's divine spark quickly took shape, and soon, the first golden pattern appeared on it, also forming rapidly.

"Judging from the trend, the level of the divine spark that Mengmeng is condensing will not be too low..." Lin Yun thought to himself upon seeing this.

At the very least, it wouldn't be a one-pattern or two-pattern divine core; he could tell that much.

However, how many divine runes can ultimately be formed depends on how long this momentum of forming divine runes can be maintained.

Some cultivators condense divine sparks with great initial momentum, but then their momentum rapidly declines, ultimately resulting in the condensation of a low-level divine spark. Others, however, condense divine sparks with slower initial momentum but a continuous flow, eventually condensing a high-level divine spark.

These situations do exist.

"Buzz!"

Soon, a second golden pattern appeared on Lin Mengmeng's divine core.

"Two golden lines have appeared!"

"I hope to condense more golden patterns..."

Xia Qingqing and Zi Yun clenched their fists. They also learned from Lin Yun that the level of divinity was not based on realm, but on talent and potential.

Condensing a divine spark and breaking through to the divine realm is only the first step. The level of divine spark one condenses determines one's future.

They naturally hoped that Lin Mengmeng could condense as many golden patterns as possible.

As time goes by.

"Buzz!"

The third golden line appears!

"Buzz!"

The fourth golden line appears!

Upon seeing this, Lin Yun's eyes lit up.

He knew that those who could condense four golden divine cores were considered nobles even among the countless innate gods, and would be highly regarded in many races.

Among the acquired gods, those who condense a four-patterned divine core are also rare.

Lin Mengmeng was able to condense the fourth golden pattern. Even if she stopped there, it would still be a good result.

Judging from the current trend... it seems that new golden patterns can be formed...

It has to be said that Lin Mengmeng's talent and potential in the Divine Realm exceeded his expectations.

"Buzz!"

An hour after Lin Mengmeng began to condense her divine spark, a mysterious fluctuation finally appeared on her divine spark once again, and the fifth golden pattern appeared.

"Boom! Rumble—"

The immense power of heaven and earth surged into Lin Mengmeng's body once again, leaving the surrounding power of heaven and earth somewhat depleted for a moment.

The spirit of the Heavenly Dao Tower, shaped like a little doll, was also watching this scene. Upon seeing this, it quickly waved its little hand and rapidly mobilized a vast amount of heaven and earth power from the depths of the Heavenly Dao Tower, which then surged toward Lin Mengmeng, who was not far away.

"Five golden lines!"

"Mengmeng's talent is amazing!"

Xia Qingqing and Zi Yun exclaimed in surprise. At this moment, they were also very envious of the talent that Lin Mengmeng had shown.

"Could it be that Mengmeng has also condensed a nine-patterned divine core?" Lin Yun muttered to himself with a strange expression.

Of course, that was just a thought. He knew all too well how difficult it was to condense a nine-patterned divine core. It could be said that apart from him, he had never heard of anyone else who had condensed a nine-patterned divine core.

Even those who manage to condense an eight-patterned divine core are extremely rare.

It would be quite astonishing if Lin Mengmeng were to condense a seven-patterned divine core.

In his previous life, none of his brothers and sisters, who were of extremely noble blood, managed to condense a seven-patterned divine core.

However, some things, upon closer examination, are not a problem...

“The little tower intercepted a lot of energy some time ago, but not much. If Mengmeng only condenses a seven-patterned divine core, there will naturally be no problem. But if she condenses an eight-patterned one… I’m afraid the energy will not be enough… because the energy required to condense the eighth pattern of the divine core is far greater than the total amount required before…” Lin Yun said solemnly.

If Lin Mengmeng is able to condense an eight-patterned divine core, but fails to do so due to insufficient energy, then she will have suffered a huge loss this time.

Thinking of this, Lin Yun couldn't help but regret letting Lin Mengmeng condense her divine spark so casually. He should have prepared earlier.

"However, it doesn't matter. I can let the Blood Prison Sword absorb and refine my power, and let Mengmeng absorb it..." After a pause, Lin Yun breathed a slight sigh of relief when he thought of the Blood Prison Sword.

The Blood Prison Sword would have no effect on absorbing and refining ordinary upgrade energy, but Lin Yun was at the intermediate Divine Realm level, so absorbing and refining his power and transferring it to Lin Mengmeng would not be a problem.

At most, it will consume some of his essence.

During this period, he has made considerable progress at the intermediate level of the Divine Realm, and the energy consumption is not enough to cause his level to drop.

However, Lin Yun secretly decided that when Xia Qingqing and Zi Yun, or others around him, condense their divine sparks next time, he would be better prepared to avoid this situation from happening again.

Even the ghost cultivators he placed under his command in the Netherworld's High Heaven should have been provided with more chaotic energy to consume when they were preparing to break through to the Divine Realm. Otherwise, it would have been a pity that they could only condense low-pattern divine networks instead of high-pattern divine cores, which they should have been able to condense.

Fortunately, his clone had already set up some formations in the Netherworld to intercept some of the energy that descended from heaven and earth when the new heaven of the Netherworld was broken, and also to make some formations cause some gods to continuously release chaotic power.

This is for use by ghost cultivators who have broken through to the Divine Realm, or are preparing to break through to the Divine Realm.

Before this, he had not expected that Guomuboer and Emperor Liwei would break through to the Divine Realm. He had seen the level of the divine sparks that Guomuboer and Emperor Liwei had condensed, and they were both four-striped divine sparks.

It was a godhood of a considerable level, but it's unknown whether it was due to insufficient high-level energy around Guomuboer and Emperor Liwei at the time; otherwise, they could have condensed a higher-level godhood.

If that's the case, then Guomuboer and Emperor Liwei will have suffered a huge loss.

Now, Lin Yun thought that perhaps he should prepare more energy.

The Netherworld is a vast world comparable to the Great World of Living Beings. It has just risen to prominence, and it can be said that most of the ghost cultivators who have broken through to the God Realm at this time are pioneers of the Netherworld.

Do pioneers receive special benefits?

Just like the benefits when the new heaven was broken!

For example, competition doesn't offer much benefit!

Just like... being favored by heaven and earth, and receiving a higher level of divine status as a benefit!

Lin Yun pondered this thoughtfully.

As he refined more and more of the Netherworld and Blood Fiend Universe's primal power, he gained a deeper understanding of the growth of a world. Therefore, he knew that his conjectures were not wishful thinking, but were true.

Perhaps, Guomuboer and Emperor Liwei really missed each other back then.

It should be noted that although he is the strongest in the Netherworld, strictly speaking, he is not a ghost cultivator. His true form is a god-level cultivator who broke through in the realm of living beings. Guomuboer and Emperor Liwei, on the other hand, are the first and second ghost cultivators in the Netherworld to become gods.

Therefore, it's quite normal for the two ghosts to gain some significant benefits.

A four-striped divine rank... while not low... it's definitely not high either...

Just look at Lin Mengmeng; right now, the fifth golden rune has condensed on Lin Mengmeng's divine essence!

"Buzz!"

Just as Lin Yun was thinking about these things, a mysterious fluctuation emanated from Lin Mengmeng's body again, and another golden pattern appeared on her divine core.

"The sixth golden pattern!"

Xia Qingqing and Zi Yun blushed and became even more excited.

Lin Yun also raised an eyebrow.

Could it be that, as he thought, Lin Mengmeng could actually condense seven or even eight golden divine cores?

He no longer thought about the nine golden divine runes.

He knew that he had condensed the Nine-Patterned Divine Core thanks to the balance of the two primal forces within him, while Lin Mengmeng had no primal force at all.

"Boom!"

The immense power of heaven and earth surrounding them was once again completely devoured.

"Little Tower!"

Lin Yun said softly.

The spirit of the Heavenly Dao Tower, shaped like a little baby, wore a bitter expression. It had painstakingly intercepted so much energy, but before it could refine it for even a short time, it was likely to be completely gone.

However, it was not oblivious to the bigger picture. Knowing that this was a major event and could not be delayed in the slightest, it released an even larger amount of the power of heaven and earth towards Lin Mengmeng the moment Lin Yun spoke.

Ten breaths... twenty breaths... thirty breaths...

The sixth golden pattern gradually condensed and slowly grew, and the entire divine core emitted a dazzling golden light, becoming brighter and brighter. Finally, after hundreds of breaths, the divine core emitted a mysterious fluctuation once again.

The seventh golden pattern condensed.

Lin Yun's expression turned quite strange.

Is Lin Mengmeng's talent in the Divine Realm really that good?

Or what is the reason?

A seven-patterned divine essence is no less than the most elite divine bloodline among the innate divine races.

At the same time, Lin Yun's heart tightened slightly.

The seventh golden pattern has already formed; how far away is the eighth golden pattern?

From this perspective, the energy retained by the Heavenly Dao Tower is most likely insufficient.

He must quickly prepare additional energy, otherwise, Lin Mengmeng's momentum in condensing her divine essence may be abruptly halted.

That would be such a waste.

Lin Yun knew very well what an eight-patterned godhood realm cultivator represented. With nine-patterned godhood realm cultivators not appearing, an eight-patterned godhood realm cultivator represented the hope of a powerful godhood realm team.

Originally, he was thinking that even if Lin Mengmeng, Xia Qingqing and the others condensed their own divine sparks, if they couldn't endure the long and arduous cultivation in the future, he could let them choose the path of refining divine sparks again.

With his support, if everything goes smoothly, there is a high probability that Lin Mengmeng, Xia Qingqing, and the others will reach the peak of the Divine Realm.

If Lin Mengmeng were to truly choose the path of refining a godhood now, that would be a real pity.

Even if Lin Mengmeng can only condense a seven-patterned divine spark this time, and even if she can only cultivate to the upper-level divine realm in the future, it is still better than her breaking through to the peak divine realm by refining divine sparks.

First, if Lin Mengmeng cultivates to the Upper God Realm on her own, she will not be weak even in the Upper God Realm, given her godhood level. Second, she may break through to the Peak God Realm at any time, and once she breaks through to the Peak God Realm, she will be an even stronger figure in the Peak God Realm.

Naturally, it's better than breaking through to the peak of the Divine Realm by refining a divine spark. ( )
