The most difficult game in history has descended upon the world, and players can obtain a random talent as soon as they log in.
Jiang Hao starts with a Supreme-level talent: as long as it is ...
As the little skeleton converted energy faster and faster, the temperature inside the ice block dropped lower and lower. Soon, even the little skeleton's white body was covered with a layer of frost.
Little Skeleton: "The Netherworld has enough power for me to absorb, so I have no need to kill you. Besides, even if you become a god, you are not omnipotent. When the ancient gods return one day and the Spirit Ruins collapse, you will know that you need me, and I cannot live without you."
Jiang Hao breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the little skeleton didn't attack him right now.
The aura emanating from the little skeleton was incredibly powerful. At the same time, that aura also carried a disdain for rules, a thirst for power, and a... alienation from humanity.
In this atmosphere, Jiang Hao's first concern would undoubtedly be his own safety.
As for the return of the ancient gods and the collapse of the Spirit Ruins, Jiang Hao, who was under a suppressed aura, had no energy left to think about these things.
Jiang Hao: "Oh, I see. Then we'll have to cooperate well. I have things to take care of outside, and besides, the hole in the boundary barrier will heal in a little while. See you later!"
Jiang Hao had a sudden thought and ordered Xiao Shi to lead everyone away.
It's impossible to travel through here. Perhaps the boundary barriers here are too strong; Little Shit truly cannot travel from here to other realms.
Jiang Hao glanced at the breach in the boundary barrier a hundred kilometers ahead and couldn't help but sigh: "How were those skeleton monsters able to break through the boundary barrier? What methods did they use?"
After thinking about all sorts of things, Jiang Hao realized that although he and his group were flying in the sky with Little Shit, they had not strayed far from the little skeleton. Through his sensory perception, he could tell that Little Shit was still standing still.
Jiang Hao immediately realized that the little skeleton didn't want everyone to leave yet.
So Jiang Hao had no choice but to make Xiao Shi turn its head back.
The little skeleton was completely encased in ice. Even the gaps between its bones were filled with thick, solid ice. Its chest cavity was also filled with ice. Its entire body was as if it were immersed in ice, with only the deep blue soul fire in its head swaying from side to side like seaweed.
Wisps of mist rose from the surface of the ice, lingering for a long time, and in a short while, they had completely enveloped the ice block.
Little Skeleton: "You forgot to take them with you."
Baron Feldman and the Bone Dragon King had already put away their summoned creatures. At this moment, the two of them stood in front of the ice block, looking up at Jiang Hao who was about to leave.
Jiang Hao could barely sense the little skeleton's soul fluctuations anymore.
Jiang Hao: "Aren't they my summoned creatures? Isn't this my summoning space?"
Little Skeleton: "Oh right, I completely forgot about that."
Jiang Hao: "Alright, the green hills remain unchanged, the clear waters flow on forever, we'll meet again."
The little skeleton seemed to be deliberately toying with Jiang Hao. The more anxious Jiang Hao was to leave, the more it wanted to keep him there.
Just as Little Shit turned around again to lead everyone away, the little skeleton's soul communication came through again.
Little Skeleton: "Um, didn't you want to become a legendary powerhouse through the trials? I can arrange that for you."
At this point, Jiang Hao was no longer sleepy.
Little Shit used a teleportation technique, instantly turning its massive body around. Jiang Hao was now perched on Little Shit's teeth, staring longingly at the little skeleton in the ice.
There was no sign of the little skeleton making any movement within the ice. Oh, its entire body had merged into the ice, so it couldn't possibly move. Suddenly, a thick fog surged out from in front of the ice, instantly enveloping an area of one kilometer in radius, completely shrouding Jiang Hao and his group, along with Little Shit, inside.
Jiang Hao's vision blurred, and he found himself on a fighting arena. Thick fog billowed around him, completely enveloping the arena. He could no longer sense Yun Xinghe and Xiao Shi.
Jiang Hao couldn't figure out what kind of trick the little skeleton was using.
Did it create an illusion in its own mind?
Or did it use unpredictable means to pull itself into a legendary trial?
The arena was large. A flash of white light appeared on the other side, and an elderly summoner with a somewhat aged face, dressed in a blue mage's robe, stood on the other side of the arena.
Judging from the aura emanating from him, that summoner was undoubtedly a legendary powerhouse.
Jiang Hao was surprised. Summoners were practically the lowest-ranking class in the Spirit Void. He hadn't seen many summoners along the way. If summoners made up more than one-sixth of the six classes, even one-twentieth would almost certainly indicate a resurgence in the summoner class.
And the person in front of them was actually a legendary summoner.
It felt like walking on the beach and suddenly seeing a gold nugget the size of a bucket at your feet.
The summoner on the other side moved. He held his staff in his right hand, raised it diagonally to his left shoulder, and slowly waved it to the right. 38 legendary summons appeared in front of him.
Jiang Hao suppressed his surprise and doubt, tapping his fingers in the void to refine one mustard seed clone after another. In a short while, he had refined 38 humanoid mustard seed clones.
Both sides were ready, but the transparent light screen in the center of the arena showed no signs of disappearing.
A moment later, another flash of white light appeared on the other side. Jiang Hao looked up and saw another legendary summoner appear where the white light had disappeared.
The summoner wore a light blue mage robe, and his white hair and beard made him look like an old immortal from a TV series. Jiang Hao, however, knew that the aura emanating from this new summoner was far stronger than that of the previous one.
Before he could even ponder why there were two opponents in a single trial, Jiang Hao saw another flash of white light on the opposite arena, and yet another legendary summoner had appeared.
Three legendary summoners in total. Whose trial was like this?
Jiang Hao's lips twitched; he suspected that the little skeleton was deliberately messing with him.
The two summoners on the opposite side simply waved their sleeves, and a total of 130 legendary summons appeared on the opposite arena after a flash of white light.
The invisible light barrier on the arena showed signs of fading, and Jiang Hao knew that the trial was about to begin. So he made a series of gestures in the void, refining one humanoid mustard seed clone after another.
Finally, when the light screen in the center of the arena faded to almost disappear, Jiang Hao had completed the refining of all 168 humanoid mustard seed clones.
Jiang Hao remained motionless, standing quietly on the arena, letting his mage robes flutter.
