This deity is not an omnipotent god from mythology, but a cultivation system, an existence that cultivates through the power of faith. Lin Yun had heard of such an existence on the Cosmic Trading System.
Some spiritual civilizations even practice this kind of cultivation.
"No wonder, with such abundant spiritual energy resources on Earth, I haven't discovered any divine cultivation systems, including those sacred sites of faith. I was quite puzzled at the time. It turns out that the divine environment on Earth has developed to this extent..." Lin Yun sighed inwardly.
At this moment, he recalled the various issues concerning gods and faith throughout history... In ancient times, there were emperors who forbade faith, emperors who changed faith, and in modern times, there were actions to smash all demons and monsters.
As things gradually became clearer, he estimated that these were most likely events related to deities.
Wars between gods, wars between humans and gods.
In modern times, the rise of science and technology allowed some human leaders to seize the opportunity, and the war between humans and gods reached its most brutal state. The result was obvious: the gods were defeated, and the world reached a state of atheism.
"I never imagined that when humanity was in its most dire situation, it would be the gods who intervened..." Lin Yun thought to himself with emotion.
“Other gods only improved their living environment, but I obtained some pure spiritual energy from your equipment, which allowed me to reach my current level,” the beautiful woman said shyly.
"What?" Lin Yun asked in surprise.
"I used some special methods to obtain some pure spiritual energy from your equipment without asking, please forgive me," the beautiful woman said with a smile.
"Grandma, you flatter me. You are the mother-in-law of Xiaobai and Xiaolan, and you have also done a great service to protect humanity on Earth. It is only right that I give you some spiritual energy. Besides, that spiritual energy doesn't really belong to me."
Lin Yun smiled wryly.
Compared to the number of spiritual crystals he obtained during this period, the number of spiritual crystals he obtained from Earth was not much, probably only tens of millions in total.
These spiritual crystallizations, even if given all to the other party, would amount to nothing, let alone just a portion of them.
However, as he spoke, Lin Yun was also slightly surprised.
He knew from the cosmic trading system that some gods might discover those devices, and he paid close attention to this at the time. However, no god had ever been able to obtain pure spiritual energy from these devices.
This old woman is clearly no ordinary person; she managed to do all that.
"It must be because this old woman's strength is too great..."
Lin Yun seemed to be deep in thought.
Based on the previous demonstrations, he estimated that this old woman's strength was at least at the level of a tenth-level cultivator.
According to data from the cosmic trading system, such powerful individuals are extremely rare even among advanced civilizations. In civilizations with divine cultivation systems, these individuals are exceptionally powerful.
Even some owners of those kinds of cosmic trading systems probably haven't encountered such a powerful expert.
"Humans are the soil in which our gods exist, so it is my duty to protect them. Your equipment has attracted the covetous eyes of many gods. By blocking them from damaging your equipment, I ensured that they did not take your spiritual energy for nothing," the beautiful woman said with a smile and a nod.
"I see, then I must thank you very much, Grandma."
Lin Yun suddenly realized and quickly bowed.
"Alright, enough of the unnecessary words. What do you plan to do next? The strength of the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm is not low. If even stronger beings descend from them, you probably won't be a match. I've observed those two spatial nodes, and they won't be long before they open up a higher-level passage..."
The beautiful woman waved her hand and said.
"Please tell me, Mother, just how powerful are the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm?" Lin Yun asked solemnly, cupping his hands in greeting.
This was a piece of information he had always wanted to know.
As the saying goes, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle." Only by knowing the strength of the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm can he better deal with them.
"Very strong, stronger than you can imagine..." The beautiful woman looked deeply at Lin Yun and said slowly.
"If Grandma were to fight them, who would be stronger?" Lin Yun thought for a moment and then asked.
Just now, this old woman spoke to those powerful figures from the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm, asking them to speak to her. If their strength were not equal, how could this old woman dare to say such a thing?
"My strength is insignificant in the eyes of the strongest beings in the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm," the beautiful woman said, shaking her head.
"What?" Lin Yun exclaimed in surprise.
In his opinion, this old woman's strength should have reached the level of a tenth-level cultivator, and she would be a formidable presence even among tenth-level cultivators. However, she would be insignificant in the eyes of the strongest beings in the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm.
So, how strong must the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm be?
How terrifying must the strongest beings in the Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Realm be?
Has he reached the level of an eleventh-level cultivator?
Lin Yun was deeply shocked.
Level 11...
This isn't as simple as just being one level higher than level ten.
Now, his level on the Cosmic Trading System is not low either; he has seen some information above level ten.
He knew that above level ten, each higher realm and level brought a dramatic change in strength.
Ten level-ten peak cultivators are no match for one level-eleven early-stage cultivator.
This shows just how terrifying an eleventh-level cultivator can be.
The golden beast they encountered some time ago was comparable in strength to a level twelve cultivator... it was actually quite terrifying.
Level 12 is already a very high level of existence in this universe.
Even among those super civilizations, there are not many experts of this level.
Those above level twelve are considered super-powerful beings in the universe, each one a renowned figure in the cosmos.
In the blink of an eye, one can teleport the distance of a galaxy, and with a single punch, one can shatter a considerable star field.
On the cosmic trading system, there are also robots with the strength of a level 10 cultivator, but they are still only about ten times stronger than robots with the strength of a level 9 cultivator.
However, only those super civilizations can manufacture robots with the strength of an eleventh-level cultivator... because of their own strength, the difficulty of manufacturing them, and most importantly, their monopoly and lack of competition. As a result, their price is already a hundred times that of robots of the same level with the strength of a tenth-level cultivator.
In other words, on the cosmic trading system, the standard price for a robot with the strength of the early stage of level ten is one hundred billion spirit crystals.
The standard price for a robot with the strength of the early stage of level 11 is one trillion spirit crystals.
The standard price for a robot with the strength of the early stage of level twelve is one hundred trillion spirit crystals.
On the cosmic trading system, many rules state that, in order to prevent malicious competition, to prevent price gouging, and to protect the interests of every owner of the cosmic trading system, the prices of certain items cannot exceed a certain amount, cannot fall below a certain amount, and so on...
Little did they know that the prices of some items sold by those super-civilizations were so outrageous.
However, they also found a good reason for it: for the sake of cosmic peace, such a thing with super-high military power also has a super-high price, so as to prevent such super-high military power from becoming rampant and causing wars in various parts of the universe that are difficult to control.
Some warships of comparable strength, along with various weapons, also come at such outrageous prices.
Perhaps this statement is correct.
Just like on Earth, many firearms simply cannot be sold.
A country's super weapons are not something another country can simply buy just because it has money.
That kind of force was too far beyond Lin Yun's reach.
Therefore, after seeing it, Lin Yun simply clicked his tongue and then stopped thinking about it.
However, this incident made Lin Yun realize that he could still put up a fight against the strength of a level ten cultivator.
If he were to encounter a cultivator with the strength of an eleventh-level cultivator, he really wouldn't stand a chance.
The Immortal Realm, the Celestial Realm... Could they possibly possess such power?
