In the original space-time, a ripple receded, and a man with a somewhat dazed expression walked out.
"You're finally back."
After a long while, the dizziness from the teleportation gradually disappeared, and Jiang Yan regained his senses. He subtly released his divine sense to sense the laws.
"It's been almost three years already. I wonder how Holy Spirit City is developing. Hmm... the power of faith is more than ten times stronger than before I went there."
"Check the follow-up tasks first, then go find them."
Jiang Yan quickly made up his mind and looked at the task interface.
The advanced quest "The Only Glimmer of Hope" has been completed.
[Task evaluation in progress, please wait...]
[Successfully persuaded the pantheon to unite against the abyss; score weight increased by 1.5.]
[Defeating the "Abyss Demon Emperor" in its normal state increases the score weight by 3.]
[Successfully destroyed all large abyss passages; score weight increased by 1.5.]
[Defeat all invading Abyss monsters; if the Epoch Completion Rate is above 60%, the score weighting increases by 2.]
[Overall rating: ur-level. Retained rewards from the previous period; rating increased to: max.]
[Claim your reward now or add it to your cart for later? (Note: The reward stacking limit has been reached and cannot be increased further.)]
"Huh... the rewards have reached the limit. Let's claim them then."
Jiang Yan shook his head helplessly. He had already reached the limit after only two missions.
[Rewards are being distributed, please wait...]
You have obtained a special item: the Heart of Origin.
[You have obtained a special item: the Wishing Dice of All Realms (random).]
[You have received an additional bonus: all the artifacts left behind by the angels.]
With a prompt, three items exuding an extraordinary aura appeared before us.
Jiang Yan reached out and took it, looking at it one by one.
Heart of Origin: A unique, top-tier rare item in all realms. Please use it after mastering as many laws as possible. Current number of laws mastered: 103.
"I don't know what it does yet, but it should be a good thing."
Jiang Yan played with the dazzling gem-like object that refracted hundreds of different kinds of light.
The only one of its kind in all realms. He remembered that the Disorder Stone he obtained last time was also of this grade, which created the invincible Loshia in the Supreme Realm.
I imagine this one won't be too bad either.
He is still missing the divine positions of the laws of time and power. Since these are such rare items, he must wait until he obtains all the laws before using them to maximize their effect.
However, it's been a long time; three years have already passed. The "God of Time" is about to perish completely in Anubis's Eternal Burial, and the "God of Power" has been devoured by the Zerg Overlord.
All that's needed is to find suitable successors to these two divine positions and then receive their power.
"It should be about three to five more years."
Jiang Yan pondered for a moment, carefully put away the "Heart of Origin", and looked at the other two props.
The Prayer Dice of All Realms (Random): Roll the dice three times. The higher the combined score, the greater the reward, with a maximum reward of unique to all realms. You can also choose not to roll and receive a guaranteed Mythic-level reward.
It seems to be a luck-based item.
Jiang Yan smiled faintly. He was always quite confident in his luck, and he estimated that he could get the full reward even if he threw the ball directly.
Thinking it over, he opened his divine kingdom and washed his hands with the spiritual spring.
Good luck and blessings!
The hourglass has reset! Double the luck!
"Explode!"
Jiang Yan reached out and tossed the toss three times in a row.
6, 6, 6.
"Sure enough, it's exactly as I imagined."
Jiang Yan's smile widened as he looked at the manifested reward.
Congratulations on winning the ultimate reward: Second Heaven.
At the same time, an axe fell from the void.
"What does this mean? What happened to the promised second heaven? What's with giving me an axe?!"
Jiang Yan was slightly taken aback, then grabbed the axe.
The Axe of Disruption (Exclusive to Holy Light): Can sever the restrictions of the era on the Gates of Heaven, summoning the complete Second Heaven to descend.
"So that's how it is."
Jiang Yan suddenly realized that the chains embedded in the void behind the Gates of Heaven were a reminder of this.
"So, in other words, we can summon the remaining two Heavenly Sovereigns, eight Seraphim, and other Holy Light warriors for free?"
Jiang Yan was quite surprised.
The realms have been unusually generous this time, and this includes all the artifacts left behind by the angels. All that's missing is faith, and the Holy Light pantheon will truly return to its peak.
"However, I have a feeling that this reward is related to this mission, but I don't know if it's just my imagination."
After a moment's thought, Jiang Yan shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He put away all the rewards and then used his divine sense to communicate with the various realms again.
"Receive the third phase of the mission."
[Ding! Detected that Lord Jiang Yan has completed the second stage of the quest "The Only Dawn," and the third stage quest "Reincarnation of All Realms" has begun.]
[Mission Description: In the previous phase of the mission, the Reincarnation Divine Art revealed significant limitations during the battle against the Abyss. Both its coverage and endurance fell far short of expectations. The power of Reincarnation must be further strengthened and perfected.]
[Mission Requirements: Travel to the Desolate Lands beyond the realms controlled by the Lord of the Abyss, find and fuse the fragments of the ancient Netherworld shattered by the Lord of the Abyss. This will help you truly perfect your cycle of reincarnation, allowing it to grow into a divine art comparable to "Three Lives."]
[Quest Eligibility: You must use the Heart of Origin to travel to the Core of All Realms and gain their approval before you can undertake this quest.]
[Mission Reward: Advanced Advancement Permit.]
[Note: This mission has no time limit and is theoretically safe. It can be completed before the Abyss is unsealed.]
"Fragments of the Ancient Netherworld..."
Jiang Yan stared into thought as he looked at the prompt.
This mission was not unexpected for him.
Although the power of reincarnation is strong, it is far from enough to truly defeat the abyss.
Leaving aside the issue of coverage area, even the Reincarnation Pool, which possesses the "Zerg Overlord," will experience energy shortages when facing extremely high-intensity battles.
After all, although the Overlord can convert 100% of the dissipated energy, the energy that clashes and annihilates with the abyssal magic will be consumed in the collision and cannot be recovered.
Small-scale battles are manageable, but if the intensity is high enough, like this one, the battles will be too costly to keep up with the attrition.
Secondly, although the construction of the cycle used many precious materials, it was still too fragile when facing a siege by true masters and was easily broken.
"I wonder if fusing with the fragments of the Netherworld will solve these problems."
"However, there are prerequisites for accepting this mission, so there's no rush. Let's go and see what changes have taken place in Holy Spirit City over the years."
Jiang Yan's heart stirred, and his figure disappeared from the spot.
