The Era of Gods-Chapter 650 Promoting Powerful Divine Power
```
Although I couldn’t lay my hands on the magic divine position, the massive number of followers and the vast Divine Realm were up for grabs.
Moreover, the Churches on earth dedicated to the gods of revenge and fear, as well as several True Gods around them, launched an attack on the region of the Magic Church simultaneously. Countless True Gods took advantage of the chaos to plunder and fish in troubled waters.
Even the Demon Lords from the Bottomless Abyss received the news. Many Demon Lords, like sharks that smelt blood, silently arrived in the Primary Material Plane to plunder the souls of mortals, but they met with the collective resistance of the gods.
It’s worth mentioning that this world has a Bottomless Abyss, but it doesn’t have a Nine-Layers Hell.
In the Toriel Multiverse, the infamous Nine-Layers Hell was forcefully split from the Bottomless Abyss by the ninth-layer jailer Asmodius, who relied on his own powerful magic. In fact, the Nine-Layers Hell was once part of the Bottomless Abyss, and its jailer, Asmodius, is a dreadful demon comparable to a great divine power.
This Crystal Wall Universe, labeled CY-00801, had no powerful devil comparable to the jailer Asmodius who could split the Bottomless Abyss, and therefore, there was no Hell.
However, in this Crystal Wall Universe, there was still the concept of a Blood War, which was not between the Bottomless Abyss and Hell, but instead between the Bottomless Abyss and the gods. The first layer of the Bottomless Abyss was where the Abyssal fortresses bordered the gods’ fortresses, and it was the duty of every True God to dispatch the armies from their Divine Realm to guard the gods’ fortresses against the Abyssal demons.
But though that was the theory, in reality, the vast majority of True Gods never had the chance to send their Divine Country Army into the gods’ fortresses.
While there were risks involved in fighting demons, there were also great benefits. Generally, True Gods had no chance at all, and only with permission from several Powerful Divine Powers could they send their troops to station there.
For example, Lin Xiao had already achieved Medium Divine Power and owned a powerful Divine System. However, due to his poor relationship with three Powerful Divine Powers, he didn’t even receive a notification.
The relationship between the Magic God and the Justice God, however, was very special, naturally granting this opportunity.
But at this moment, with the sudden demise of the Magic God, a vacancy was left in the gods’ fortresses. Usually, plenty of True Gods would have been willing to deploy troops. But at this critical juncture, no one dared to raise their eyebrows.
What’s important to note is that the very moment the Magic God fell, the Justice God immediately left the main battlefield where they were fighting the Beastmen and issued an unprecedentedly stern reprimand to the Dark God System; Lin Xiao, who had just seized the Magic God’s divinity, had closed off his Divine Realm to enter seclusion and hadn’t heard it.
However, even if he had heard it, it wouldn’t have mattered. With the seizure of the Magic Matrix and the Magic Net, his promotion to Powerful Divine Power was a done deal; they no longer needed to be afraid of him.
Unfortunately, the Justice God was unprepared in advance, and now, didn’t have enough strength to deal with him, nor was there time to stop his ascension.
With the Divine Realm on full defense, even if the Justice God and the entire Divine System charged at him, the Dark God System could hold out until his promotion to Powerful Divine Power.

After all, his God Level had long reached the peak of Rank 14; there was no further he could ascend, lacking only the Magic Matrix, which could permit his immediate promotion; it wouldn’t take much time.
Days went by in the Primary Material Plane, and countless True Gods were observing a certain direction—that was towards the Divine Realm of the Dark God System. Although they couldn’t see anything, many True Gods could sense a tremendously powerful Divine Power coalescing.
This commotion could not be concealed from the watchful eyes of the heavenly gods. Even many lords and sovereigns of the Bottomless Abyss sensed this fluctuation of Divine Power and cast their greedy gazes in that direction, only to be met with fear and panic.
At a particular moment, all followers of the Dark Churches, be they Ground Dwellers, Zorel Elves, Grey Dwarves, or even Goblins, involuntarily laid down their work and prostrated themselves. The Ground Dweller hero, Onard, descended from his throne to kneel devoutly on the ground, just like the other ordinary followers, loudly praising the greatness of their Lord God, the Magic God.
In this moment, all followers had an indistinct sense that their Lord God which they worshipped was about to become more magnificent.
Inside the Divine Realm, countless caveman angels, Prayers, God Guards, and so on, were all kneeling on the ground, silently reciting the Church’s doctrines to themselves.
Amidst the grand praying voices, from the location of the Divine Palace in the center of the Divine Realm, suddenly, a dazzling column of light burst forth. Inside the column of light, a huge silver cocoon was suspended; a network of silver light shot out from the cocoon, quickly spreading throughout the Divine Realm, passing swiftly beyond its borders to cover the Dark Territory, spanning thousands of miles in the blink of an eye.
At that moment, accompanied by a boom that echoed through the entire Divine Realm, the silver cocoon floating above the Divine Palace split open, and a figure wrapped in silver veils emerged from within. Accompanying the figure’s emergence was a strange, soft tone that resounded through heaven and earth:
"I, Magic God Lin Xiao, declare that those who believe in me shall have eternal life!"
An overwhelming might swept across countless planes at this moment, and numerous mighty beings in the Crystal Wall Universe instantly knew that another Powerful Divine Power was born.
Within the Hall of All Gods hidden in the void of Starworld, the golden thrones underwent a great shift in rank. The throne representing the Dark Chief God, which was second in rank among Medium Divine Powers after defeating the Magic God, rapidly rose, bursting into the central position of the Hall of All Gods. Amidst the envious gaze of all gods, it forcibly inserted itself among them, settling into a spot between the God of the Sun and the Beastman’s Chief God, ranking fourth amongst the five Powerful Divine Powers.
With his ascendancy to the Magic Divine Position and the Magic Net, he immediately surpassed the Lord of the Sun upon his promotion to Powerful Divine Power.
In that moment, every True God in the world had an indistinct feeling:
Unless one of the Powerful Divine Powers fell, there would be no new Powerful Divine Powers emerging in this world; the five Powerful Divine Powers already represented the limits that this Crystal Wall Universe could sustain.

The gods watched with envy, jealousy, or cold, covert glances.
But moments later, they all withdrew their gazes. Whether they liked it or not, they knew that the ascent of this deity with Powerful Divine Power was a foregone conclusion, and any resistance would surely lead to their downfall.
"Powerful Divine Power!"
Within the Dark God Kingdom, Lin Xiao received the congratulations befitting a deity and returned to the Divine Palace. He clenched his right hand and carefully felt the Divine Power he wielded.
Powerful Divine Power was an experience he had never had before, and Lin Xiao had never imagined that his True Body had not yet taken this step while his Incarnation had advanced to promoting Powerful Divine Power ahead of time.
Although he lacked much reference, he was certain that his current self definitely could not defeat the Powerful Divine Power of the Main World.
It wasn’t just a gap in Divine Power, but also in the rules.
This was a Medium Divine Power universe that could only support five Powerful Divine Powers; how could its rules be as perfect as the Main World that gave birth to many great divine powers? Similarly, in the Divine Positions of Powerful Divine Power in the Main World, just a single one would be enough to effortlessly defeat all five of their Powerful Divine Power natives.
Therefore, even though he had just ascended to Powerful Divine Power, after returning and merging with his True Body, the strength he could retain was estimated to be at the most Medium Divine Power.
Nonetheless, this was still a remarkable achievement. Relatively speaking, his gains had already exceeded most of the Descenders. Many sons of True God Level Divine Realms descend to Different Domains, and the vast majority are unable to cross the gap of Powerful Divine Power.
In any world, ascent to Powerful Divine Power represents the pinnacle of power. For example, in this world, under normal circumstances to ascend to Powerful Divine Power without additional strength or trump cards, and to then encounter the birth of the Beastman’s Chief God, which attracted the attention of the Lord of the Sun and the Justice God, takes a combination of many coincidences and conditions. For a normal deity of Medium Divine Power, it would be nearly impossible to defeat a Magic God supported by the Justice God.
There are several dozen deities of Medium Divine Power in the Hall of All Gods, and there’s no knowing how many of them have fallen throughout history, but there are only a few with Powerful Divine Power.
Since ascending to Powerful Divine Power, Lin Xiao could now conjure twenty Incarnations of God in one go.
Compared to Medium Divine Power, the Incarnations of God with Powerful Divine Power have a higher God Level and more quantity, which will inevitably lead to a qualitative change in their combat power.
For the following period, Lin Xiao stayed within his God’s Kingdom. Apart from continuously condensing Divine Power and Divinity to conjure new Powerful Divine Power Incarnations, his main focus was on communicating with the original followers of the Magic God through the Magic Divine Position, and accepting the Magic God’s legacy.
Mages, regardless of the world, are high-end talents, the most numerous amongst the powerful, and their great divine power and wisdom provide far more Power of Faith than other beings of the same rank.
Certainly capable of both fighting and providing an abundance of Power of Faith, these followers are something he definitely could not let go of.
It’s worth mentioning that after he seized the Magic Divine Position from the Magic God and ascended to Powerful Divine Power, the Divine Positions of Magic from about a dozen other True Gods in this world began to slowly disperse and converge towards him. He believes it won’t take long to gather all the Divine Positions of Magic in the entire Crystal Wall Universe, becoming the sole Magic God.
By then, his Strength would definitely grow once more. Lin Xiao estimates that once he completely digests this harvest and accumulates more over time, he might catch up to the Justice God.
If everything goes as expected, his limit of strength in this world will rank second in the Hall of All Gods, only behind the Chaos God.
There’s no helping it. Chaos and Order are both one of the basic laws of any world, inherently stronger than other powerful Divine Positions, standing just below the four primary origins of time, space, energy, and matter as some of the strongest, while others such as Light, Darkness, earth, fire, wind, and water fall short.
To surpass the Chaos God, Lin Xiao must possess a Divine Position of the same level.
Conveniently, he just so happens to have the Order of God Divine Position.
Previously acquired at a great cost for the purpose of trading with the Justice God in exchange for non-interference in his promotion to Powerful Divine Power, it ended up unused.
Now, there’s certainly no need to trade it away; it’s perfect for his own use.
Combining the Order of God and Magic Divine Positions, along with the strong Racial Divine Position of the Caveman providing a massive amount of Power of Faith, the combination of the three will ensure his dominance over the Chaos God.
Moreover, having now ascended to Powerful Divine Power, many plans could already be put on the agenda.
Five days later, an Incarnation quietly left the God’s Kingdom and headed for the edge of the World Crystal Wall.
Within the next month, several newly formed Powerful Incarnations successively left the God’s Kingdom, beginning to lay the groundwork for the next phase.
At the same time, the Gods in the Divine System began to reconstitute their Incarnations and leave the God’s Kingdom after his ascendancy to Powerful Divine Power. The vast Dark Territories of the region saw the apparitions of divine Incarnations, and many deeds that could not be done before were now possible.
