"Just as I expected."
Jiang Yan had already guessed about this round of Abyss Trial.
His strength now ranks among the top of all lords.
If we were to compete with those who entered the realms at the same time, it would be too much of an insult to them.
However, the Pioneer Group... that's a term I've never heard of in my previous life.
Jiang Yan clicked on the trial details and read them carefully.
The sixteenth Abyss Trial will begin urgently in five days.
[This episode's content: The Cooperative Competition.]
[Mission Description: A vital starfield, preserved from a past era, has been discovered simultaneously in both the myriad realms and the abyss. Although most of it has been destroyed, it still retains some unknown and important primordial power.]
[Mission Objective: You must cooperate with four other powerful lords to repel the overwhelming army of Abyssal Demons and conquer more territory. Attacking each other is strictly prohibited during this mission, and once you die, you cannot be resurrected.]
[Mission Rewards: Based on successful capture of the abandoned starfield, rewards will be distributed according to contributions made during the mission.]
[Special Note: Once the Abyss seizes the remaining power of this star system, all realms will be at a disadvantage in the conflict, and may even lose the ability to protect certain areas. All hope rests on your shoulders; please exert your utmost effort.]
"So this is the trial that those strong people face."
Jiang Yan remained silent.
Facing the army of demons from the abyss, unable to be resurrected, is almost equivalent to a direct conflict between the various realms and the abyss.
The outcome can even influence the final result for both sides to some extent.
In comparison, the trials he had previously experienced, protected by the rules of the various realms, were like playing house.
"Perhaps the trials in the previous life became increasingly difficult, and the rules became more and more inclined to the abyss, because there was a problem with the upper battlefield."
Jiang Yan suddenly had a sudden realization.
Because of repeated failures, the power of the abyss grew stronger, and the various realms gradually lost control over all other realms.
No wonder some of the top 100 experts on the ranking list in my previous life would suddenly disappear; now that I think about it, they all perished.
"I never thought I'd end up like this."
Jiang Yan suddenly smiled brightly, opened his divine kingdom, and the light from the faith channel shone down.
With one step, one finds oneself before the throne of the Holy Spirit Temple.
Loshia, Death, Analia... one after another, high-ranking officials appeared and stood on both sides.
Jiang Yan shared the trial information with everyone and said calmly:
"This time, everyone except Yaberlik, who will stay in Holy Spirit City to handle daily affairs, will go on the expedition together."
Now that we have the Faith Channel, we can teleport people back at any time in case of any unexpected events, so there's no need to waste important combat power.
"Fighting for you, Holy Lord/Emperor".
Everyone bowed respectfully.
"Death, leave a spell in the city to prevent any villains from causing trouble."
"Loshia, Anna, go and destroy all the abyss passages belonging to the Holy Spirit City. Just leave the ten in Beierland for leveling up."
"Floya, I've recruited 4,000 new angels at the Gates of Heaven. Take them there to gain experience from destroying the passages and try to raise them to at least the demigod level."
"Assal, integrate the newly summoned undead armies from various places. Those that are too weak should be sent to the Stitching Cave for reconstruction. The reorganization must be completed within five days."
Jiang Yan made the arrangements one by one in an orderly manner.
The Abyss Riot has now reached its fourth wave, and everyone in the Federation except for him and Ye Mo has been eliminated. The pressure has long since shifted to the passage outside Holy Spirit City.
It's good enough for leveling up; it's time to eradicate it completely to prevent future problems.
Soon, everyone obeyed and left, leaving only Sheena behind.
She seemed to realize something, and a hint of anticipation appeared in her eyes.
Jiang Yan smiled gently and said softly:
"Are you ready, Sheena?"
"Of course, Your Majesty, I have been waiting for this moment."
A mysterious power, transcending the evolution of laws, appeared in his hand and slowly flew towards Xina under Jiang Yan's control.
Transcendence!
A pitch-black crack suddenly opened beneath her feet, and endless death power spread upwards. One could vaguely see that more powerful and unknown law inscriptions were rapidly being engraved on the divine seat belonging to the Lord of the Necromancer Arrow.
An immense pressure surged forth uncontrollably, causing cracks to appear on the walls of the entire hall.
It wasn't until four hours later that all the power of the laws gradually faded away.
The undead girl in the void slowly opened her eyes. Her crimson eyes became lively and gentle, and her grayish-white skin seemed to have a faint blush, as if it contained a faint life force.
The ultimate death brings about new life.
Sheena quietly savored her newfound power, then suddenly smiled brightly and said:
"Your Majesty, now I can serve you better."
Jiang Yan paused slightly, recalling the scene of their first meeting, and couldn't help but smile:
"I won't let you die a second time either."
He looked at the other person with gentle eyes, and a brand new panel appeared before his eyes.
【Xina】
Rank: Unique.
Divine Position: Eternal Fallen Elf, Lord of the Necromancer Arrow.
Rank: Mid-level God.
The laws of control: the laws of the undead, the laws of archery.
Faith Level: Diehard.
Skills: Inherited Twin Archery, Eternal Mute Domain, Life Curse Seal, Origin Dedication.
Overall score: 9.01 million.
Huh?
Not only did it advance to the level of a mid-level god, it also advanced two more skills.
A hint of joy appeared on Jiang Yan's face.
He had already upgraded the opponent's skills as soon as the talent was upgraded, but he didn't expect that after transcendence, there would be a third advancement.
"Perhaps the potential of the first two skills has not yet been fully realized."
It seems that I'll have to use my innate skills before attempting to transcend in the future.
Jiang Yan looked thoughtfully at the two newly upgraded skills.
Inherited Twin Arrow Technique: When activated, this skill summons a phantom clone with the same power level to attack simultaneously. The main body can fire 32 arrows imbued with necromantic laws, ensuring a hit; the clone can fire 32 arrows that drain the target's life force, ensuring a hit.
Eternal Mute Domain: When activated, it consumes one percent of divine power per second. Within the range of divine sense coverage, all beings below the level of a main god will be restricted from using skills. The domain can be shrunk to its maximum size, and can have a certain impact on peak main gods.
It truly is an ability that comes from transcendence.
Jiang Yan was overjoyed.
The upcoming sixteenth Abyss Trial will likely involve facing a large number of powerful demons, including some strange species with special abilities that are difficult to defend against.
With Sheena's realm of eternal silence now in existence, accidents can be prevented to the greatest extent possible.
Although it consumes a great deal of divine power, the clones created by her Twin Arrows technique can shoot arrows that are guaranteed to hit and steal the source of power.
If you draw the bow fast enough, wouldn't that be like a perpetual motion machine?
Jiang Yan felt even more confident. Looking at the somewhat eager Xina, he couldn't help but smile:
"Go ahead and adapt to your new skills as soon as possible."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Jiang Yan watched the other person leave, then looked back at the trial mission on the panel.
"I was blessed by the legacy of my ancestors in my past life, and now it is my turn to hold up an umbrella for all beings."
