Chapter 221: Chapter 221: The Big Lesson Ends, Ranked Number 1

The so-called Divine Incarnation is a carrier of the deity’s will formed by fusing a bit of Divinity with Divine Power as its foundation. It requires the creator to impart a will and cannot exist independently. Once the imparted will vanishes, the Divine Incarnation naturally collapses. It will not, like some avatars in novels, develop its own consciousness after leaving the True Body for a long period and become independent. That is impossible.

He opened the light screen, carefully reviewed the detailed workflow of the main class again, and selected ready.

The next second, an invisible force descended upon the Divine Realm, and as he made his selection and confirmed, a pulling force emerged beneath the feet of the developing Divine Incarnation. Quickly turning into a golden stream of light, it was sucked into a vortex and disappeared.

When it appeared again, it found itself aboard a Void Battleship identical to the one they had used to travel to the Outland at Summer Camp, but a slightly smaller model. However, it was still massive.

This was a Radiant School Administration’s exclusive ship that could carry tens to hundreds of millions of warriors. Yet, this battleship was provided solely for the use of their elite class of just over eighty individuals—an undeniable display of Radiant’s deep pockets.

Of course, there was also a Guard Team on the battleship that belonged to it. Aside from taking them there, they were also there for their protection.

A bit of Divinity, ten points of Divine Power, Lin Xiao felt as if he had returned to the state he was in when he first opened the Divine Realm.

No, it was even worse than that. Back then, he also had only a bit of Basic Divinity and a small amount of Divine Power. But at least he had the enhancement of the Divine Realm, while now he was just a small Divine Incarnation. Many of the abilities granted by the Divine Realm couldn’t be used, and all his combat power relied on these ten points of Divine Power.

Put it this way, with one point of Divinity as the foundation, ten points of Divine Power could fully burst forth, comparable to a full-force strike from a Rank 8 Legendary Creature.

But after that one strike, there’s not much combat power left because Divine Power is a consumable, gone once it’s used up.

Of course, even without Divine Power, a Divine Incarnation—coming from a Deity—wouldn’t be weak, roughly equivalent to a Rank 6 Transcendent warrior.

That being said, such strength would mean virtually nothing in the plane where this main class was held. The key point was that he dared not unleash the Divine Power, as it was his last lifeline for survival, and on a daily basis, he could only rely on his own knowledge of spells. In the end, he needed to lay low.

The vast Void Battleship was eerily quiet with Lin Xiao standing alone in front of a massive window looking out at the varied colored lights streaming through the Void.

A while later, he suddenly felt undisguised footsteps from behind and turned to see someone approaching. It was Yun Shaoning.

He walked over and stood next to Lin Xiao, also looking out the window.

After a while, Lin Xiao turned his head, puzzled, and glanced at Yun Shaoning, then turned away without speaking.

Standing there for almost an hour, Yun Shaoning’s voice suddenly reached his ears:

“I’d like to make a trade with you.”

He neither moved nor made a sound.

Seconds later, the voice continued:

“A true and untouched Divine Corpse, along with a God Level Zero Divinity that contains both Lizard and Swamp Godhood. I will trade them for those two very excellent evaluations you have, as well as any very excellent evaluations you might receive in the main classes throughout the year.”

Before he had finished speaking, Lin Xiao turned around, his face full of surprise.

“What do you think? This is a very intact Divine Corpse, with only the God Country shattered. Everything else is preserved, and that is very rare. Even if you don’t need it now, it could be of great value to your Clan. I’ve heard that your father is a High-Level Demigod now; if he could acquire this Divine Corpse and Divinity, Divine Enthronement would be within reach.”

Lin Xiao….

Was indeed quite surprised.

But not because Yun Shaoning was willing to exchange such precious items for mere excellent evaluations, nor was he surprised that such items could be traded. He was surprised by the perfectly preserved True God Corpse.

From what he understood, due to the existence of a God Country, the battles among True Gods were unimaginably intense.

When the fight for survival became most fierce, all kinds of desperate measures would be unleashed.

Just like a Demigod burning their own Divinity, True Gods would also burn their Divinity. Each time they did, the God Level would decrease, burning until the end.

Therefore, most true godly battles are incredibly brutal. Even if one holds an advantage, victory is not guaranteed. In the end, even if a victor emerged, obtaining a complete Divine Corpse and Divinity would be very difficult.

It’s quite a rarity.

This is also why many True God families, despite having several True Gods, should ostensibly be able to slowly kill solitary Native deities to acquire Divinity and grow their Clan like a snowball, creating more True Gods.

For example, the Lin Family had two True Gods, and in theory, they could go after those with weak divine power and lower God Levels. But in reality, after so many years, the Lin Family still only had two True Gods, because complete Divinity was rare to come by.

Of course, that’s not to say having complete Divinity automatically leads to creating a True God, as it depends on the strength of the user.

But even so, one cannot deny the tremendous value of a complete Divine Corpse and Divinity, its significance so exaggerated that Lin Xiao didn’t dare respond and was left momentarily dumbfounded, unable to understand Yun Shaoning’s intent.

In any case, he didn’t believe Yun Shaoning was serious, preferring to believe it was a bluff.

So after coming to his senses, his first reaction was to send a message to the class instructor, repeating exactly what Yun Shaoning had just said.

A dozen seconds later, the instructor replied. The brief response from the instructor, Jin Sisi, reached his ears:

“Both parties agree to the transaction!”

“Uh…”

Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment. It was actually real, and far too surprising.

At that time, Yun Shaoning seemed to know that he had asked, and with arms folded, he said:

“So, what do you think? The price is absolutely high; you won’t find anyone offering more than me.”

“Not interested, I refuse.”

Lin Xiao decisively refused.

It was surprising, indeed, and astonishing, but he was no fool. To spend such an exaggerated price on just a few evaluations could only mean that the evaluations were more valuable than the transaction items themselves.

It was clear that the so-called top resources and great opportunities in the teacher’s hands had to be far beyond his imagination.

Of course, this didn’t mean that the teacher’s top resources and great opportunities were more valuable than a Divine Corpse and a Godhood Level. The comparison wasn’t equal. For students at the current second rank, a Divine Corpse and Godhood Level were somewhat redundant, as they were not yet strong enough to utilize them properly. Not everyone had treasures like the Creation Rubik’s Cube that might be able to use them, and the potential value might not even be as great as an ancient-quality miracle card.

But it was certain that the resources in the teacher’s hands were the most valuable and the best for them at the current stage, definitely more useful than a high-value Divine Corpse and Godhood Level that they could not fully utilize at the moment.

So, his refusal was definite.

At this point, Lin Xiao was extremely curious about the so-called top resources and great opportunities in the teacher’s hands, and he was tempted to ask the class teacher, but he figured it was unlikely he would be told. More likely, he wouldn’t even get a response to his message.

He didn’t think too much about it; not knowing now didn’t matter. As long as he kept receiving exceptionally good evaluations in each major class, he would naturally find out when the time came.

Afterward, Ning Shaoyun asked several times, and he rejected every single offer decisively, which left Ning with no choice but to leave, frustrated.

Not sure if it was agreed upon, but soon after Ning left, he received several purchase inquiries from other elite class students, all surprisingly willing to pay a high price for the two spots he held.

He certainly refused them all, but his surprise and curiosity grew stronger, and he really wanted to find someone to ask.

After searching the entire class, he realized there was no one to ask but ended up thinking of the class teacher anyway. With a nervous heart, he sent a message.

After a long while, when he thought there would be no response, the class teacher suddenly replied:

“If I were you, I would not bother with these. Do not trade.”

Well, that was just like not replying at all.

He gave up any hope, pushing the thought aside for now.

But not long after, he received another short message from the class teacher:

“If you can get one of the three highest evaluations from the seniors in this class, I will tell you the reason.”

Lin Xiao, stroking his chin, replied:

“I’ll try my best!”

After that, he thought nothing more and just quietly waited for the Void Battleship to shuttle through the void.

Time passed until, with a slight jolt of the Void Battleship beginning to slow down, he knew they had arrived.

Through the vast porthole, he could see a colossal Void Storm Whirlpool indescribable in size ahead, with roaring torrents of Void Energy being drawn into the eye of the whirlpool, transformed into energy dragons hundreds of kilometers in diameter and tens of thousands of kilometers long.

In his heart, Lin Xiao estimated that the diameter of the whirlpool was in the tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of kilometers, a magnitude that rendered the enormous Void Battleship as insignificant as dust.

The speed of the battleship slowed, drawn by the pull of the whirlpool toward its center, and finally darkness enveloped the view as they plummeted into the whirlpool.

An hour later, the pitch black vanished, and they had crossed the central channel of the whirlpool, arriving in a dark void that looked like a starry sky— all around in the far distance, both above and below, were swirling layers of energy, but in the center, there were several—like… octopus tentacles that were segmented, crossing…

No, as the starship approached, Lin Xiao quickly realized that these were not light pillars but a special group of planes formed by countless overlapping planes of various sizes.

As the battleship drew nearer to the planes, he noticed that these overlapping planes varied in size and color, emanating light of varying strengths, and from within, it almost felt as if these planes were alive.

The starship traveled along one end of the tentacle-like light beams toward a huge spherical plane at the center. After a seemingly endless journey, they arrived at an intersection of several crossing light beams, stopping in front of a colossal spherical plane.

Overall, this peculiar group of planes resembled an octopus with numerous tentacles, with the central main plane acting as the giant octopus’s head and tentacles made of countless overlapping plane fragments extending into indiscernible depths of space.

The tentacles grew brighter the closer they were to the central plane and darker towards the tips, emitting an aura incongruous with the center.

The Void Battleship stopped in front of the massive spherical plane at the heart of the plane group; then, the surging energy on the colossal Plane Crystal Wall began fluctuating, gradually twisting into a huge human face,
