Three days later, in the City of Freedom.
"Holy Lord, we've arrived," Analia whispered.
Jiang Yan slowly awoke from her meditation.
While traveling, he conducted three more simulations of death.
I was lucky this time, obtaining two A-level destinys and one SS-level destiny, astrological signs.
This is a predictive talent, allowing one to foresee the future for a short period. However, due to limitations in talent level, the accuracy of predicting the future from the perspective of higher-level gods is extremely low.
I just happened to have an extra destiny slot after advancing to the intermediate god level, so I inserted it.
It grants creatures in the divine realm a weakened fate effect: they have a certain probability of anticipating enemy attacks and triggering an evasion effect.
These effects, though not immediately apparent, accumulate over time and, once enough are gathered, are no less significant than an improvement in rank.
After doing all this, Jiang Yan opened the Divine Kingdom.
But they found a large group of people waiting in the void.
In addition to the comrades from the last trial, there was also the head of the First Chamber of Commerce.
"What are you doing here, seniors?"
Jiang Yan was somewhat surprised and nodded to the others.
"I heard you're planning to attempt the 90th level of the Abyss? Are you confident?" Krans asked nervously.
"With those two seniors around, it's probably about 80% likely."
Jiang Yan nodded and smiled.
"Eighty percent? What's the difference between that and one hundred percent? We're doomed!" Clans lamented.
"It hasn't been that long, and they've already surpassed me."
"It was all luck."
Jiang Yan shook his head and said, "In terms of actual strength, I am far inferior to you seniors."
“Young brother, there’s no need to be modest. Everyone who has cultivated to this level has had some opportunities. Fate doesn’t favor anyone for no reason. If your own aptitude isn’t enough, you won’t be able to hold onto even the gifts that are handed to you.” The people behind laughed.
"Is that so?" Jiang Yan was slightly taken aback.
"Of course, even fate follows the laws of fairness; this is a consensus across all realms."
What was said without malice may have been taken to heart by the listener.
Jiang Yan suddenly remembered what the merchant had said during the novice trial.
That original world was fortunate enough to obtain the sealed heart of an angel, but it was discovered by the abyss. In the end, it consumed nearly 300 billion units of faith power and was only 20,000 units away from awakening it, but ultimately failed.
If having an angelic heart is a gift from fate, then being able to withstand the abyss is the corresponding qualification.
Jiang Yan was startled.
Since his rebirth, he has been blessed with many gifts from fate.
He easily comprehended the new power of laws through the trials of the Sovereign, the highest divine position of Holy Light and the Undead, the blessings of the two God Lords, and even with the full support of all realms.
Everything comes at a price.
What kind of cause can lead to such a result?
Previously, due to his limited knowledge, he had never thought much about it in this direction. After all, the divine power of fate was now in the hands of the archangels of Heaven.
But now that I think about it, the original pantheon of fate has also completely perished.
Even the former Holy Lord and the Undead Emperor, whose power transcended fate, could not escape it.
"That's true, there's no such thing as a free lunch. No matter what the future holds, seize the present gifts and strive to become stronger, so that when it turns against you, you'll at least have the ability to fight back."
Jiang Yan smiled wryly and quickly adjusted his mindset.
After chatting with a few more people for a while...
The manager of the First Chamber of Commerce stepped forward respectfully and said, "Lord Jiang Yan, as you instructed, I have informed the president and Lord Nie. They will be waiting for you at the entrance of the 90th floor."
"This is troublesome," Jiang Yan nodded.
He had specifically informed the other party in advance so that the top two on the leaderboard could prepare and make a joint move.
"You're welcome, Lord Jiang Yan. This is a small token of my appreciation that the president asked me to prepare; please accept it."
The steward handed over a storage ring.
Jiang Yan scanned the contents with his divine sense and found that it was filled with divine-level recovery potions and blessing potions from the 60th to the 79th floors, which could temporarily exempt him from the negative effects of the abyss aura infection, and were worth at least 200,000 points.
As for floors 80 and above, infection can no longer be prevented by medication.
"Please thank Senior Zhou Yuan for me."
Jiang Yan didn't refuse. After all, it wasn't the first time he had accepted the First Chamber of Commerce's kindness. He could repay the favor later.
"Jiang Yan, we've also prepared something." Seeing this, Clans and the others exchanged glances and handed over a storage item.
"It's nothing valuable, just some information."
"Thanks."
Hearing this, Jiang Yan took the prop and glanced at it.
In addition to a large amount of detailed information about the demon gods, there are also two anonymous points cards with a total value of up to one million.
Even for those veteran powerhouses, this is by no means a small amount.
"this..."
"It's just a small token of my appreciation. If you hadn't revived and nurtured our entire clan during the last trial, the cost would have been far more than this."
As if they had guessed what Jiang Yan was going to say, the others interrupted him with smiles.
"Besides, if you can break through the 90th floor, we can all benefit from it."
"Then I'll accept it without hesitation."
Seeing that Jiang Yan accepted the gift, the group relaxed. After all, they owed him a huge favor from the previous trial, and the debt had been weighing on their minds.
"Jiang Yan, are you planning to rest in the City of Freedom for a while, or go directly to the Abyss Battlefield?"
"There's nothing to prepare, let's just go," Jiang Yan said with a smile.
Now, his subordinates Anna and Sheena have both undergone transcendent enhancement and reached the realm of high-level gods.
Losia and Death had some of their restrictions lifted after the last trial.
All four of them are comparable to ordinary main gods in terms of combat power, plus the angel legion that has generally been promoted to intermediate gods, and the undead legion that has just acquired a large number of war machines.
Unless there is a powerful Abyss Lord, they can be easily overwhelmed.
"Okay, but be careful. Return scrolls won't work above the 80th floor of the Abyss. Also, the guardian of the 80th floor is extremely annoying. It's been blocking me for over ten years. It... uh, never mind, it's all in the information. Take a look yourself."
As Clans was carefully giving instructions, he saw Losia behind Jiang Yan suddenly shut her mouth.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan scanned the information in the storage item with his divine sense and found the guardian of the 80th floor.
Source of Tyranny: The ultimate form of the Tyrannical Demon. Its initial power is equivalent to the weakest God-level being. It will continuously increase its combat power when it is damaged, and its upper limit can reach the peak of the God-level being.
"Turns out he's a punching bag too."
Jiang Yan suddenly realized.
However, its upper limit is only the peak of the main god. When it encounters the original like Loshia, it can only be suppressed and beaten from beginning to end.
After memorizing the monsters highlighted in the information, Jiang Yan raised his head and bid farewell to everyone.
"Waiting for your good news."
"Hey, Jiang Yan, good luck! If you can knock that guy out of first place, I'll change the virtual avatar in the Magic Mirror to yours, how about that?" Clans said excitedly.
“This…is really unnecessary,” Jiang Yan said calmly.
He then took out the gold identity card and swiped it in mid-air.
"The 61st floor of the abyss."
