The most important thing was that his mastery of the Priesthood was growing rapidly, and his Godhood level kept rising during this period. Soon, he surpassed the weak Divine Power stage that most True Gods in this Crystal Wall Universe were at and entered the weak Divine Power stage of Level Five Godhood.
And his understanding of the Priesthood and the corresponding rules continued to grow …
But his Godhood level did not continue to grow because his current Divine Power was not enough to support him to go further.
But this was only temporary, and it would continue to grow before long.
Lin Xiao estimated that when he refined the Dark Lord's Godhood, his Godhood level could grow to Level Nine at most. It was a little difficult to reach Level Ten Godhood, which was equivalent to a mid-level Divine Power. After all, he only inherited two Priesthoods from the Dark Lord's Godhood. He did not want the Drow Priesthood, which had the largest proportion. Naturally, it could not support his promotion to mid-level Divine Power.
But he was not in a hurry. The potential of the Moleman Race Priesthood that he now had had caught up with the Drow Elves. When the Moleman Race Priesthood developed to a certain point, he would naturally be able to cross that level without any bottlenecks.
This was the advantage of the Race Priesthood.
Although the Race Priesthood would not increase any combat power or any bonus, as long as the race was strong enough, there would be no bottlenecks along the way. Even a great Divine Power could be easily crossed.
The premise was that this race could support a great Divine Power.
The current Moleman Race might be difficult, but when the fifth generation of Moleman Race came out, it would probably be possible.
After promotion to a weak Divine Power, one could divide the number of God's Avatars according to the number of Priesthoods. Lin Xiao had three Priesthoods in addition to the Ancient God Priesthood, Matter Priesthood and Moleman Priesthood, which meant that he could divide into three God's Avatars.
The Race Priesthood and Regional Priesthood, as well as some special Priesthoods such as Supreme Priesthood, could not be divided into God's Avatars.
In addition, he also gained several universal Extraordinary Godhood abilities, namely Divine Shield and Teleportation.
And the exclusive Extraordinary Godhood abilities related to the new Priesthood were Shadow Magic Mastery and Group Divine Shield.
Divine Shield was different from the shield formed by Divine Power. Divine Shield was formed by Divine Power purely to offset damage, while Divine Shield was an absolute defense. Although it could only block damage once, it could block a powerful attack that was far beyond one's own strength.
Teleportation was just like its name. With just a thought, he could appear anywhere within sight and pass through any barrier or barrier.
Shadow magic came from the Shadow Weave, which covered the entire Underdark, the Shadow Plane, and other places that the original Weave couldn't cover. It was inferior to the original Weave controlled by the God of Magic, but it was still quite powerful.
With the Shadow Weave, his Gnome Followers and Priests would have the ability to cast spells. They would be able to use many Shadow Spells in the Underdark, further increasing their strength.
At this moment, Lin Xiao really wanted to find an opponent to test his strength, but at this time, the gods of the Underdark were fighting each other for the drow believers. The whole Underdark was extremely chaotic. The drow were busy with the civil war and had no time to care about the crypt people. Now that the crypt people had risen, the looting that had lasted for tens of thousands of years had now disappeared.
After years of fighting, many drow cities had been divided up by the gods.
Especially with Lin Xiao giving up the Drow Priesthood, the gods of the Underdark began to condense the Drow Priesthood after gaining a large number of drow believers. Now, the fastest few race gods had already condensed the Drow Priesthood.
The conflict of Priesthood had always been the biggest reason for fighting among the gods, and they were no exception. After most of the drow fairies were divided up, several gods who had condensed the Drow Priesthood announced a Holy War in order to monopolize this Priesthood.
In the second year of the Holy War, the God of Grey Dwarves attacked the avatar of the God of Ogres but failed.
In the fifth year of the Holy War, the God of Mind Stealers took advantage of the God of Ogres and the God of Grey Dwarves to attack the God of Tauren and Assassination to attack the God of Grey Dwarves.
After a chaotic battle that Lin Xiao could sense even if he stayed in the second layer of the Underdark, the God of Grey Dwarves fell and was eliminated.
The God of Ogres and the God of Tauren immediately stopped fighting, but on the way back, the avatar of the God of Ogres was besieged by several avatars of the True Gods on the surface and collapsed. Although the true body of the God of Ogres was hidden deep and had not been found, the root of his faith, the underground Ogre Kingdom located somewhere in the first layer of the Underdark, was attacked by the joint forces of the drow and the Grey Dwarves and was defeated.
In the sixth year of the Holy War, the fourth generation of cavemen completely replaced the third generation of cavemen, and the scope of their faith expanded to the depths of the distant Underdark. Lin Xiao had more than one billion crypt believers.
In the seventh year of the Holy War, the God of Ogres, the God of Tauren, the God of Goblins, and the God of Wilderness and Ooze joined forces to fight against the God of Mind Stealers who had been promoted to Lesser Divine Power. The Ogre Kingdom Warlord, the Tauren King, and the Goblin Master Craftsman joined forces with the drow army under the three gods to go on an expedition to the Mind Stealers Kingdom in the fourth layer of the Underdark.
In the final battle, the God of Tauren and the God of Ooze suddenly rebelled, the avatar of the God of Ogres escaped, the avatars of the God of Goblins and the God of Wilderness collapsed, and then the true body of the God of Goblins was found. The Mind Stealers took the risk to leave their hiding place and paid the price of two avatars to kill the God of Goblins.
After killing two True Gods in a row, and with the God of Tauren and the God of Ooze, the strength of the God of Mind Stealers increased again.
Even the God of Shadow, the God of Spider, and other True Gods of the Underdark who were fighting on another battlefield stopped fighting and were full of vigilance against the God of Mind Stealers.
At this moment, Lin Xiao's Godhead level was slowly increasing to grade-9. He was only one step away from becoming a mid-level Divine Power. The power of faith he received every day was barely enough to support the maintenance of a mid-level Divine Power Godhead and Divine Kingdom.
With one billion fourth-generation Subterrane Dwellers, each of them provided about twenty points of faith power per day. One billion was twenty billion points of faith power, which was twenty thousand points of divine power. For a Rank 10 Divinity, the cost of maintaining a Divine Kingdom was about twenty thousand points.
The reason why he didn't immediately promote was that his mastery of Godhood wasn't enough to promote to an Intermediate God, and that his current divine power was too weak.
Once promoted, he wouldn't have any excess divine power, and if there was even the slightest fluctuation, he would be quite passive.
It must be known that once promoted to an Intermediate God, he would immediately become one of the most powerful True Gods in this Crystal Wall Universe apart from the three Great Gods. At that time, he would definitely be watched by the three Great Gods, and at the same time, he would attract the hostility of the other Intermediate Gods.
The Crystal Wall Universe could only bear a limited amount of Great Gods. Three had already been born, and there were two spots left. There were more than 40 Intermediate Gods, and the competition was quite fierce.
Fortunately, Lin Xiao had an Ancient God Godhood, which could help him hide his true strength. The other True Gods wouldn't be able to see through his true strength unless they saw his true body with their own eyes.
At the outpost base, Lin Xiao's gaze swept across the dozen or so light balls that were constantly changing forms in front of him.
These were the bloodlines of more than a dozen powerful species that he had collected. There were supermodel species like the Giant Dragon, as well as special and powerful species like the Hydra, not to mention heavenly creatures like the Angel, terrifying species like the Abyss Demon, and so on.
But after hesitating for a long time, he finally chose a species that was neither strong nor weak — the Earth Giant species.
This Giant species could only be considered average in terms of size and strength among the Giant species, but it was especially compatible with the Cavemen.
However, Lin Xiao didn't directly fuse the bloodline genes of these two species. Instead, he extracted the genes of the Earth Giant and embedded them into the bloodline of the Cavemen, so that the bloodline would be hidden in the Cavemen's bloodline.
The reason for this was that the fifth generation of Cavemen had reached the limit after completely releasing the Mind Flayer's spiritual talent on the basis of the fourth generation. Any further enhancement would greatly affect the Cavemen's reproductive ability.
If the Earth Giant's bloodline was fused, the Cavemen would directly become a powerful species similar to the Earth Giants. This would lose the reason for him to spend so much time and effort to slowly create them. If he had known this would happen, wouldn't it be better to directly fuse the bloodline of the Earth Giant or even the more powerful Storm Giant?
At the same time, he also solved a problem that had been troubling him for a long time, and that was the problem of the Cavemen's power system.
Why was it that races like the Taurens, the Gray Dwarves, the Drows, and other races combined couldn't compare to the Cavemen, but could easily give birth to True Gods?
That was because these races had a large number of powerful professionals. As everyone knew, in the case of the same race, the power of faith provided by the powerful was far more than that of ordinary people. It was more than a hundred times, a thousand times, or even ten thousand times more.
They were all humans, but how could the power of faith provided by a devout mortal be comparable to that of a devout Legendary Master?
That was why these races could give birth to True Gods even though their population was far less than that of the Cavemen.
Now, Lin Xiao needed to solve this problem and provide the Cavemen with a power system.
Hiding the Earth Giant's bloodline in the bloodline of the fifth generation of Cavemen, it wouldn't appear normally and naturally wouldn't affect the rate of reproduction. However, as long as certain conditions were met, the bloodline could be activated and transformed into a new … Cave Giant. Yes, he would name the awakened giants of the Cavemen as Cave Giants.
This way, it wouldn't affect the rate of reproduction of the Cavemen, and it would also allow this race to have high-end power, which would allow them to compete with other races for survival space.
This way, he could be at ease to advance to a mid-level Divine Power, and this would also be his capital to advance to a greater Divine Power in the future.
Everything was ready, except for the east wind.
And this east wind came much slower than he had imagined.
After the Mind Flayer God killed the Gray Dwarves and the Gnomes, the Tauren God and the Ooze God became his subordinate gods, and his strength increased rapidly. A few years later, he subdued the Shadow God and the Underground God, a total of four subordinate gods. His strength increased rapidly, and he gained the upper hand many times in the battle against the new alliance led by the Ogres. He had already suppressed them, and the Drow cities in the third layer of the Underdark were continuously taken away, and his strength was getting weaker and weaker.
In this situation, Lin Xiao, who had been rejected and had to remain neutral, was finally remembered by the gods. Before he was about to advance to a mid-level Divine Power, an avatar of the Wilderness God came to visit him.
