Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

The vacancy of three divine positions completely shocked Lin You.

But even more shocking to him were the matters concerning the Main God and the Demon Lord.

After witnessing the origin of the Divine Realm in the previous trial, he had a vague suspicion that the number of Main Gods and Demon Lords should be related to those ten powers of creation.

Lords can only become Main Gods.

The Demon Race can only become Demon Lords.

This means when one side increases, the other side must decrease, and the numbers are relative.

To put it simply, it’s about divine positions.

The ten powers are equivalent to ten divine positions, and they are competing for the inheritance of the power of creation.

Based on this calculation.

Does this mean if he acquires the Main God’s Position, it may not be a good thing for him?

No!

It should be considered a disaster!

Because once the Demon Race discovers the divine position is with him, they will surely kill him and deprive him of the position.

He had always found it odd why the Demon Race allowed him to enter the Divine Hall of Origin so easily, especially since the Lord’s divine position is useless to the Demons.

But after witnessing the origin of the Divine Realm and the birth of the Main God in the Divine Hall of Origin, he realized his mistake.

The Demon Race doesn’t want the Main God’s Position; they want the power of creation that symbolizes the divine position.

As long as they can deprive that power, they can become Demon Lords!

"So, that’s it."

Suddenly, Lin You felt enlightened, understanding all the key points involved.

He finally realized why Niu Fei went to great lengths to save him, a human, and even arranged for him to be among the Demon Race.

Also, Jiu Ying’s leniency allowed him, a human, to establish a territory on his land and cause trouble at will.

Everything, at this moment, became crystal clear.

Lin You couldn’t help but feel astonished in his heart.

All along.

He was merely a pawn in the hands of those powerful beings, used to compete for the Main God’s Position.

Even those Divine Children, they’re probably weights used by the various forces in the Divine Realms to gain power, just like him—tools to be discarded once used!

"What’s wrong? Is there something amiss?"

At this time, Ji Yunshuang noticed his anomaly and couldn’t help but ask.

Lin You pondered for a moment, then chose not to hide anything and expressed all his speculations.

"You mean, the Demon Race is actually using us?"

After listening, Ji Yunshuang’s expression changed slightly as well.

She naturally understood well that the Demon Race would not shelter these human lords without a cause, letting them survive in the Eastern Extreme Demon Realm.

After experiencing so many schemes and deceptions, she knew better than to believe such goodwill offered on a silver platter.

Now, hearing Lin You sort out everything logically, she finally understood the hidden benefit relationships behind it.

This time, the arrival of the Divine Hall of Origin.

It’s not about them competing with the Divine Children for the Main God’s Position, but it’s a game between the high-levels of the Divine Realm and the Demon Race!

"If things are really like this, then when we leave the Divine Hall of Origin, that’s probably when the Demon Race will turn hostile."

Lin You said in a low voice, his expression extremely grave.

If this situation emerges, then the Lords of the Ten Thousand Realms will be caught in a pincer attack, squeezed by both the Lords and the Demon Race, losing the final space for survival.

If even they all fall, then the Lords throughout the Ten Thousand Realms will follow and be destroyed along with them.

"What should we do?"

Ji Yunshuang frowned, not expecting everything to come unexpectedly.

Whether it’s the Lord’s side or the Demon Race’s side, they had too little time, utterly insufficient for them to develop to a stage capable of confronting these two colossal entities.

"Given the current situation, whether or not we can obtain the Main God’s Position, the Divine Hall of Origin will disappear, and by then we will lose our value for use as well."

"We just arrived in the Divine Realm not long ago, so seeking outside help is impossible; the only way is to create a point of balance, so neither side will easily act against us."

"Your intent is to make them cautious of each other?" Ji Yunshuang, being perceptive, immediately understood Lin You’s meaning, her gaze instantly brightening.

When the sandpiper and the clam fight, it’s the fisherman who stands to win.

When two tigers fight, one is bound to get hurt.

As long as they can control that middle point of equilibrium, they may be able to secure enough time for development.

"Exactly!" Lin You’s expression was more earnest than ever.

"This time, we must not only compete for the Main God’s Position but also secure it; only with the divine position in hand can we have a bargaining chip to negotiate with them."

"I see, as long as the divine position is with us, whichever side dares to make the first move, we’ll hand over the divine position to the other side, making them wary!"

Ji Yunshuang’s gaze grew increasingly bright, filled with admiration for Lin You’s daring vision.

To use the Main God’s Position to hold sway over both the Divine Kingdoms and the Demon Race is akin to walking a tightrope.

One misstep could land them in a place of no return, something ordinary people dare not attempt.

They must remember their enemies are the entirety of the Divine Realm and the Demon Race!

To fight against gods and demons with one’s own power.

What kind of audacious person could accomplish such a thing?

Having become a lord for just a few years, the man before her has grown to possess such remarkable courage.

Ji Yunshuang finally seemed to understand why Lin You could always excel beyond others, accomplishing things many could not achieve.

This might just be his innate leadership charisma.

Lin You didn’t realize it.

In just a few words, his image in Ji Yunshuang’s eyes was elevated even higher.

What he was considering now was simply how to survive.

Since those guys already threatened his life, what was there left to fear?

"Let’s go, see if there’s a clue for the next trial," he said.

Since the Main God’s Position was their only hope for survival, they had to hurry.

So soon, Lin You directly crossed the grand hall and came to the three dim illusions in front of him.

"Plant, Insect, Element... what a pity, no Angel Type," Ji Yunshuang said regretfully.

The current Angel Main God still existed, allegedly residing in the Holy Heaven Divine Kingdom at the extreme west of the Divine Realm, which was a considerable distance from here.

"I’m curious, why, apart from the Plant Type, the other two have never been inherited. Is it because the trials are too difficult, or have these two powers vanished?"

Lin You touched his chin, scrutinizing the illusions of Insect and Element.

"I’ll give it a try anyway, I don’t have a Divine Position in my type," he said.

With that, Ji Yunshuang extended her fair hand and gently touched the Elemental Type illusion.

[Activation failed. Due to the presence of the Elemental Main God’s Position, Divine Trial cannot proceed. Angelic trial available. Enter?]

The cold prompt echoed in her mind, making her pause.

Then she reached out to touch the nearby Insect Type illusion.

[Activation failed. Due to the presence of the Insect God Position, Divine Trial cannot proceed. Angelic trial available. Enter?]

"The Divine Position still exists?"

Ji Yunshuang was startled, even more surprised.

Lin You tried it too and heard the same message.

"What does this mean? Those two positions still exist?"

"Now that you mention it, these two shadows indeed appear a bit brighter than the Plant Type," Ji Yunshuang observed something, staring intently at the two illusions before her.

In comparison, the Plant Type has already lost all its radiance, but Insect and Element still emitted a faint glow, seemingly on the verge of extinguishing, almost imperceptible without careful observation.

But the question was.

Since these two Divine Positions still existed, why had no one ever mentioned them?

It’s as if they’ve completely vanished from the Divine Realm.

"It seems only the Plant Main God’s Position is truly vacant," Lin You’s gaze fell again on the Plant Type illusion.

"In that case, I’ll go for the Angelic trial in the Angel Type, see if I can obtain a Celestial God Position," Ji Yunshuang said.

Her initial aim in coming here wasn’t for a Divine Position, but to enhance her abilities.

However, since there was a chance to acquire a Celestial God Position, laying a foundation for the future, she naturally wanted to try.

"Alright, be careful, if you encounter danger, don’t force it, just quit,"

"Don’t worry, I know my limits," Ji Yunshuang smiled at him before heading to the Angel Type illusion.

Soon enough, a dazzling Holy Light burst forth, and she disappeared from the hall.

Evidently,

Upon reaching the Central Hall, the lords would part ways, choosing their paths based on their territory and race.

Seeing this, Lin You didn’t waste any time, reaching out to the Plant Type illusion.

[Activation successful. Divine Trial Fourth Stage begins.]

[You will now undertake the Plant Type Angelic trial. Upon completion, you will obtain a Celestial God Position and qualify for the final trial to compete for the Main God’s Position. Enter?]

The final trial!

Upon hearing the prompt in his mind, Lin You’s face lit up with joy.

After spending so much time, he had finally arrived at the last two stages of the trial.

What surprised him was that simply passing the Central Hall’s trial would grant him a Celestial God Position, which was exactly what he desperately needed at this moment.

With the Celestial God Position, he could then find a way to get a Tier Fourteen Law Crystal Stone, ascend to Level 10, and achieve Celestial God status.

At that point, he’d be more confident when facing the Divine Kingdom and the Demon Race.

"Enter!"

With his response, an aura of life erupted suddenly, enveloping him.

The next second,

The space warped, and he was sucked into the illusion, disappearing without a trace.

When his vision cleared, he found himself over a boundless forest.

Without warning, he stepped into the air, plummeting from the sky.

"Whoa, shit!"

Instinctively cursing, Lin You hurriedly manipulated the newly grasped Space Law to solidify the space beneath his feet, halting his fall to stand in mid-air.

Before he could think further, a prompt that changed his expression followed immediately.

[Congratulations, you have successfully activated the Divine Trial Fourth Stage: Life and Protection]

[As a Plant Lord, survival ability is paramount.]

[Avoid the Celestial God’s chase for 3 hours. Survive the time to pass.]

[Be warned, death in the trial space is actual death.]
