Thirty sacred mountains descended, causing the blood-colored scroll to explode with a bang.
The God of Slaughter was utterly bewildered.
In his mind, Lin Yu was merely a false god, capable of unleashing divine skills only once at most. Now, he had unleashed thirty times in a row. The God of Slaughter was stunned.
He knew that unleashing his divine skills twice would completely deplete his internal energy.
How much energy did this giant before him possess?
Before he could ponder further, the sacred mountains sealed him once more.
A single sacred mountain had sealed the God of Snow and the God of Thunder. The God of Slaughter was no stronger, all of them being at the peak of the Lower God realm, following the path of faith gods, ranking at the bottom among their peers.
Even with his divine skills, he wouldn't be much stronger.
Boom!
The sacred mountains descended, sealing the entire space.
"This god is unwilling!" the God of Slaughter roared with all his might.
Rumble, clang!
Thirty colossal mountains crashed to the ground.
Perhaps no one would have imagined that five deities would be suppressed beneath these peaks.
Lin Wu said, "Big Brother, with our current strength, we can kill deities."
His intention was simple: since they could kill deities, they should do so to prevent future trouble.
Lin Yu nodded. "Then let's kill them."
With that, he first released a deity, the God of Fire.
This deity had a low cultivation, only at the early Lower God stage, far inferior to the three deities behind him.
As soon as he emerged, he roared to the sky, filled with excitement.
However, his laughter soon ceased.
The giant's hand suddenly grabbed him, trapping him in its palm. He struggled with all his might but could not break free.
"Senior, please don't kill me... I can work like an ox or a horse, become your slave, anything, just spare my life."
"We are already enemies. It's better not to leave any future trouble. Besides, aliens cannot be trusted."
"No... I can be trusted..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lin Yu's hand tightened.
"Ding, you have killed the God of Fire (Lower God), gaining 10 billion upgrade points!"
Killing a Lower God yielded ten billion upgrade points.
Lin Yu was not surprised, as even a pseudo-god was worth a billion.
"There are four more deities left. Let's kill them all," he murmured.
"Ding, you have killed the God of Wind (Lower God), gaining 10 billion upgrade points!"
"Ding, you have killed the God of Snow (Lower God), gaining 20 billion upgrade points!"
"Ding, you have killed the God of Thunder (Lower God), gaining 20 billion upgrade points!"
"Ding, you have killed the God of Slaughter (Lower God), gaining 20 billion upgrade points!"
Lower God early stage gave ten billion upgrade points, late stage gave twenty billion, so mid-stage should be fifteen billion.
He felt a bit shortchanged.
A late-stage Lower God was more than ten times stronger than an early-stage one, yet the upgrade points only doubled.
"Never mind, I've long understood the system's calculations. There's no point in dwelling on it," Lin Yu gave up on overthinking and began searching the corpses.
Clang!
A crystal dropped to the ground. He picked it up.
"Good luck, I obtained a crystal."
"Let me see what kind of crystal it is?"
He placed it against his brow and sensed it. A stream of information flowed into his mind.
Blood-colored Scroll: Divine Skill. Strips away a portion of space and transforms it into a scroll.
The description was simple. The specific details could only be known after releasing it.
"This is the God of Slaughter's divine skill!"
"Right, after killing deities, there should be something like godheads, shouldn't there?"
Lin Yu was not yet a deity and didn't fully understand them. However, he had read that deities possessed law crystals, commonly known as godheads.
But whether it was the giant god he obtained from the Cloud Country's secret realm or the broken divine corpses he found later in the Godfall world, he never found any godheads, which made him overlook this aspect.
"Let me see your godheads!"
Light flashed in his palm, and with a gentle swipe over the divine corpses, several godheads appeared in his palm.
The godheads of Lower Gods were roughly the same size, only as large as the tip of a little finger.
"What are godheads used for?" Lin Yu wondered.
Lin Wu pointed at the godheads. "Big Brother, godheads contain the power of laws. They can be used to comprehend corresponding laws, speed up the realm advancement of deities, and can also be used for artifact forging and alchemy!"
"Hmm! Just as I thought." He placed the godheads into Lin Wu's hand. "Comprehending the godheads will be your task."
Lin Wu was not surprised; given his heaven-defying comprehension, this was naturally his role.
"Big Brother, which law should we use to break through to become a deity?" Lin Wu asked.
In the demigod realm, one could comprehend embryonic forms of countless laws. However, upon becoming a deity, generally, only one law power would be comprehended.
Of course, some deities possessed dual godheads, but they were extremely rare.
Most deities would only comprehend one law, as even deities had limited energy.
"Let's use the Slaughter godhead. It complements the system's abilities."
The characteristic of the Law of Slaughter: the more one slaughters, the stronger one becomes.
The God of Slaughter, who died by his hand, had killed hundreds of millions of beings over tens of thousands of years.
But Lin Yu had already killed no less than hundreds of millions of beings.
In the future, to upgrade his talents and cultivation, he would inevitably walk further down the path of slaughter.
Therefore, the Law of Slaughter perfectly complemented the system, creating a synergy.
Lin Wu nodded, having also realized this.
"Then let's choose the Law of Slaughter."
He put away the other godheads.
Lin Yu reminded him, "By the way, now that we have ready-made godheads, how long will it take for us to break through to the deity realm?"
Before, Lin Wu had said it would take two years, but that was without the help of godheads.
Now that they had godheads, the time required should be much shorter, right?
If Lin Wu could break through to deity realm in a short time, he would focus on leveling up his clones.
Lin Wu was silent for a moment, then looked up and said, "At most three months, at least one month."
Lin Yu was overjoyed. "Good, stop comprehending the Heavenly Dao Stone for now. Focus all your efforts on comprehending the Slaughter godhead. We need to break through to the deity realm as quickly as possible. Hurry up, time waits for no one!"
Lin Wu smiled wryly. "Actually, there's no need to rush so much."
Lin Yu's face darkened, and he patted his shoulder. "You're not in a hurry, but I am. Go comprehend it quickly!"
"Alright, then I'll go comprehend it in the small world."
"Okay, come in!"
He put Lin Wu into the small world, allowing him to monitor whether he was diligently comprehending at any time.
If luck was on his side, he would be a deity in a month.
Thinking of this, he was excited.
When that time came, how strong would ten thousand deities merging together be?
Mid-level God?
High-level God?
Perhaps they would possess the strength of a High-level God?
After all, the gap between gods and mortals was like heaven and earth, but the gap between the three realms of deities was not that significant.
A Mid-level God was only a hundred times stronger than a Lower God.
By extension, a High-level God was ten thousand times stronger than a Lower God, and his ten thousand clones merging together would be ten thousand times stronger. According to this deduction, they would be ten times stronger than a High-level God, almost equivalent to a late-stage High-level God expert.
"Hoo!"
"I eagerly await that moment!"
He seemed to see a beautiful future.
He looked up at a spatial gate.
"Since you've come, you're not leaving. Stay here!"
He sneered and entered a world.
