102: The war is temporarily suspended, and a larger-scale exchange meeting will be held

After adding Yan Ling's virtual number, Yan Ling performed a series of operations, sending Lin Chen a succession of images of beautiful young women with cold expressions and a hint of disdain.

"This is my younger sister, Yan Qing'er. Isn't she beautiful?"

"... ... ... ..."

Lin Chen merely admired them for a moment, then decisively put them away, determined not to let matters of the heart shake his foundation.

"Sigh, everyone is like this. Maybe they haven't reached the age yet. Remember, if you ever look for a partner in the future, you must choose my sister. My sister is truly the best in the world."

Seeing Lin Chen's clear gaze, devoid of any other thoughts, Yan Ling knew he truly wasn't very interested in such matters and could only give up.

Yan Ling left without asking about the Divine Servant's Treasury.

She had already reached Ninth Order Gods, and resource issues had long been resolved. All she lacked was the opportunity to Ascension to God. If she encountered it, she encountered it; otherwise, she could only pursue it aimlessly.

Seeing Yan Ling leave, Lin Chen continued to collect treasures from the Divine Servant's Treasury, making a huge fortune.

Such a major event—conquering an ancestral star of a race, plundering wealth unscrupulously, and facing no consequences—was not something one encountered often.

Since he had encountered it, he naturally had to maximize his benefits.

This day was a day of suffering for the One-Eyed Giant Race, but it was Lin Chen's day of revelry.

After collecting from the Divine Servant's Treasury, Lin Chen continued to search for and slaughter Half-God One-Eyed Giants, plundering various treasures and opportunities.

As time passed, the mid-to-high-tier combat forces of the One-Eyed Giant Race were found and killed one by one by the Human Race's Heavenly Talents. The remaining weaker clansmen also perished one by one under the Human Race Heavenly Talents' extermination.

At the same time, in the God Battlefield.

The first fallen god appeared.

A newly promoted Lower God of the One-Eyed Giant Race, who had been a god for less than three thousand years, was killed by a Human Race God. His divine body disintegrated, his divine soul collapsed, and his divine power dissipated, with only his divinity remaining in the world.

The fall of a god foreshadowed that the One-Eyed Giant Race's momentum was gone, and their demise was only a matter of time.

With Azure Dragon Legion Master holding the fort, the One-Eyed Giant Race's gods could only fight to the death with the Human Race's gods. Retreating in battle would only lead to a quicker death.

The God Battlefield would not be decided so quickly. The stronger the gods, the greater their endurance when fighting each other.

On the God Battlefield, divine arts, divine skills, divine abilities, and more collided. The residual shockwaves destroyed deep space, pierced through cosmic barriers, and exposed the void that contained the universe between the gods.

No god cared about being in the void. The void was often the main battlefield for divine wars. Here, gods could fight unscrupulously without worrying about destroying too many lives or annihilating countless stars.

The cosmic starry sky was, after all, the gods' homeland, and destroying one's homeland during battle was not advisable.

The conquest of the One-Eyed Giant Ancestral Star went smoothly. It would not take long to completely destroy the hundreds of billions of One-Eyed Giants on the One-Eyed Giant Ancestral Star, thoroughly dismantle the One-Eyed Giant Race's ruling system, and strike at their human luck.

The battle on the One-Eyed Giant Ancestral Star also supported the God Battlefield from another aspect.

Once the One-Eyed Giant Race's gods lost the blessing of human luck, their strength would generally decline. They were already no match for Human Race Gods of the same rank, and now with a wave of weakening, they would only become weaker, and their fall would be greatly accelerated.

In the blink of an eye, a week passed.

The entire One-Eyed Giant Ancestral Star was completely occupied by the Human Race. Every Heavenly Talent injected Human Fire into the star's core, proving their presence and occupation of the place.

Lin Chen's journey could be said to have been extremely profitable. His gains in seven days were more than double his previous total gains. Of course, this was only in terms of total value; the average quality was not particularly high.

After all, good things would naturally be picked up by those Ascension to God Heavenly Talents. Even with good human luck, Lin Chen could not cross the gap in cultivation and seize too many opportunities from those powerful figures.

While Lin Chen was favored by human luck, other Heavenly Talents were also favored by human luck. With such a balance, Lin Chen seemed unremarkable.

He needed time to develop. At this stage, he had already reached his current limit. No matter how much more he gained, it would not make him stronger quickly; the marginal utility was severely diminishing.

With the fall of the One-Eyed Giant Ancestral Star, the Human Race Heavenly Talents did not stop their conquest. Instead, they began to employ a 'center-blossom' tactic, starting from the One-Eyed Giant Ancestral Star.

Using the One-Eyed Giant Ancestral Star as a starting point, they spread out in all directions, destroying one One-Eyed Giant Star after another, striking and dismantling the One-Eyed Giant Race's ruling system and war system, truly aiming for their complete extinction.

This was a racial war, and there could only be one winner.

The Human Race had already locked in victory ahead of time.

Lin Chen also joined in, destroying one One-Eyed Giant Star after another, acquiring vast resources and opportunities, and deepening his own foundation.

A month later, Lin Chen looked at the One-Eyed Giant Star engulfed in war before him, belatedly realizing that this war was about to end. He could retreat to the rear to recuperate and consolidate himself.

He had fought his way from the One-Eyed Giant Ancestral Star all the way to the front lines, meeting with the Azure Dragon Legion's vanguard Ascension to God army group.

Not only Lin Chen, but other Human Race Heavenly Talents also encountered the vanguard Ascension to God army group, realizing that their mission was over and the remaining enemies should be handed over to the Azure Dragon Legion.

They could not monopolize all the spoils of war, leaving the Azure Dragon Legion, which was responsible for steady advancement, with nothing. Such behavior was not good and not accepted by the mainstream Human Race.

At this time, Grandmaster Kong Wen stepped forward and gathered the participating Human Race Heavenly Talents on an artificial continent, providing a platform for mutual exchange.

Grandmaster Kong Wen was only responsible for providing the exchange platform; he would not interfere with the exchanges between Heavenly Talents. Heavenly Talents would find their own way to benefit and would actively acquire all resources suitable for them to increase their cultivation.

Lin Chen currently didn't have any particular needs. His accumulated resources were sufficient until he Ascension to God, and even for a period after becoming a god. All he lacked was time.

As for the lifelong issue of aptitude, he could only let nature take its course.

If he encountered treasures that could affect aptitude, he would buy them. If not, it was no big deal. After all, his aptitude had already reached a very high level, and he would receive talent blessings every ten years, so there was no rush at this moment.

Heavenly Talents also had their own circles, divided by cultivation and age.

Heavenly Talents under 30 were one division, those between 30 and 100 were another, and those over 100 were yet another.

Ascension to God Heavenly Talents were in one tier. Their exchanges mostly revolved around the pursuit and comprehension of the Dao, and the resources they exchanged were often for enlightenment-oriented purposes.

Half-God and below Heavenly Talents were in another tier. Everyone was still grappling with aptitude issues, or needing special resources to improve their cultivation. All their goals were to achieve Ascension to God; becoming a god was still too far away.

The two tiers had little overlap due to different needs. Everyone exchanged within their own tier, interacting with peers of similar cultivation. Resource exchanges also had a limited scope.

In the exchange meeting of over two thousand Heavenly Talents, most people did not know each other, except for those who were already acquainted. They only had basic information provided by human luck, so they weren't completely clueless about each other.

Therefore, the Heavenly Talents unanimously chose to set up stalls, displaying information for buying and selling.

Buying meant seeking certain resources.

Selling meant exchanging unused resources for common or high-tier resources.

Lin Chen also set up a stall, directly selling large quantities of common resources, while seeking relatively rare resources or Origin Coins.

There was high demand for large quantities of common resources. Heavenly Talents who played the mass-production style always found resources insufficient.

Or, for skill-based Heavenly Talents like alchemists and artificers, raw materials were needed to improve their skills and acquire more resources by selling processed goods.

After setting up the stall, with his Gods Avatar presiding, he himself, along with his Essence Clone and Qi Clone, roamed among the stalls, gaining knowledge, and occasionally buying interesting items through bartering.

Not many things interested him; they had to be at least as peculiar as exchange formations. As for common items, he could buy them himself.

The more than two thousand Heavenly Talents were truly a collection of hidden talents.

Even Lin Chen, who had little desire to shop, made over a dozen purchases, acquiring many treasures and inheritances.

Other Heavenly Talents engaged in even more transactions. It was a rare opportunity for an exchange meeting, and their shopping desires were strong. Based on their own situations, they constantly exchanged resources from various Heavenly Talent stalls to enrich themselves.

The items Lin Chen bought might not be of high value, but in terms of rarity and functionality, they were definitely considered rare treasures.

For example, he bought a token from a Heavenly Talent surnamed Cao. The token's function was to open a special secret realm world called Widow Village.

There were also a dozen other treasures, such as the Thief's Hand, usable only three times, a statue that could infinitely devour energy, and a Paper Artisan's inheritance, among others.

There were also some treasures whose origins even Lin Chen couldn't discern with the appraisal skill from old dengs book. When encountering such treasures, Lin Chen bought them without hesitation.

For example, a section of high-energy withered wood, a broken jade ring, a fractured divine sword, and so on.

Lin Chen bought these items not only because he was interested but also, more importantly, for the sake of seeking the Dao.
