Chapter 298 Main God Advancement Quest
[Ding! The Space God has mailed you a shipment of supplies, worth a total of one trillion Soul Crystals.]
[Ding! The God of Time has mailed you a shipment of supplies, worth a total of 1.1 trillion Soul Crystals.]
[...]
"It actually works?"
Jiang Yan's eyes lit up instantly when he saw the sudden appearance of over a hundred trillion resources.
Soul Crystals are an all-purpose resource. They can power teleportation arrays, equipment crafting, enchanted weapons, and can even be directly absorbed as mana potions or used to purchase faith. You can never have too many.
In particular, launching a war consumes astronomical amounts of soul crystals.
So, in that case...
Jiang Yan pondered for a moment, then took out the "Time Gap Hourglass" he had just opened from the treasure chest, locked the "Grateful Heart" skill, and suddenly flipped it over.
Instantly, he could feel that the gods who could no longer be selected could be locked again.
"Hmm... It's reasonable to make them grateful twice after solving two disasters, and I think the pantheon would agree."
Thinking it over, Jiang Yan activated his ability directly.
This time, the waiting time was slightly longer, and the order was reversed, but fortunately the number did not decrease.
[Ding! The Shadow God has mailed you a shipment of supplies, worth a total of 500 billion Soul Crystals.]
[Ding! The God of Music...]
"These pantheons are still quite wealthy."
Jiang Yan couldn't help but smile as he looked at the reserves that had been critically depleted by the two wars, now piled up like a mountain again.
Although the cooldown of "A Grateful Heart" has been extended to three years after the upgrade, the newly acquired artifact "Timeslot Hourglass" effectively reduces its cooldown to one month. By doing this a few more times, you'll never have to worry about basic resources again.
After taking stock of his gains, Jiang Yan silently communicated with all realms.
"I am here, Mr. Jiang Yan. Do you intend to continue our previous topic?"
"No need. First, draw the God Advancement Quest, then send me to the real world."
Jiang Yan said calmly.
Now that he has mastered the cycle of reincarnation and cultivated the Three Lives Divine Art to the second technique, "This Life," it is time for him to investigate the truth behind his parents' deaths.
"clear."
[It has been detected that Lord Jiang Yan has reached the peak of the Upper God level and possesses the qualifications for a godhood, thus meeting the advancement requirements...]
[The causal link for the God-level advancement quest is about to be activated. Please wait... Activation complete.]
[Mission Name: Offense and Defense in Transformation]
[Mission Description: Two ancient calamities have been suppressed, and all realms have reclaimed their lost power. Now, it is time to launch a counterattack and let the Abyss feel the wrath of the realms.]
[Mission Content: The Trials of the Realms will be restarted and renamed the Trials of the Realms, with the Abyss now mandatory to participate. Lord Jiang Yan, as the leader of the Alliance of Gods and the God Lord of the First and Second Pantheons, please, in the first phase of the Trials of the Realms, together with the gods and warriors of the Realms, destroy as many passages as possible between the True Abyss and the Surface Abyss, to demonstrate the majesty of the Realms.]
[Mission Rewards: God Advancement Permit, other rewards (increases depending on the number of channels destroyed).]
Yoho!
Jiang Yan was slightly taken aback.
"The wrath of all realms," "Forced participation of the Abyss," "Destruction of the Abyss passage"...
Compared to the previous Abyss Trials, which were labeled "forced to involve lords of all realms" and "resisting endless attacks from the Abyss army," this is completely contrary to the original intent!
The realms have finally come together!
"When does the mission begin?" Jiang Yan couldn't help but ask.
"It will take some time to limit the power of the abyss in order to ensure that the rules will favor all beings in the realms during the trials."
"Understood."
Jiang Yan nodded: "Since there's still some time, send me back to the real world first."
"Please select the return location."
"Near the Federation."
"As you wish."
A beam of light descended, enveloping Jiang Yan and causing him to disappear from the spot.
...
In the real world, at the border of the Origin Star Federation.
This place was originally the famous adventure destination "Star Spirit Graveyard". After Jiang Yan razed it to the ground last time, it has now become an empty starry sky, losing all its value.
However, both countries wisely deployed their elite troops to control the area and prohibit anyone from entering.
Jiang Yan directly ordered the core of the mechanical overlord in the divine kingdom to invade the systems of both countries, and ordered the stationed personnel to leave. Then, he teleported to the center of the starry sky and opened the divine kingdom.
The power of the Reincarnation Divine Art spread, drawing in all the uncontained souls across billions of miles of starry sky, even those with only a trace of true spirit and obsession.
Instantly, countless illusory figures appeared before the Gates of Hell on the first level of Hell.
"No causal link?"
Jiang Yan was somewhat surprised. The perfected Samsara Divine Art could reveal all the causal lines of the myriad realms. If even it was ineffective, it meant that even the true spirit had completely dissipated.
"How could this be?" Jiang Yan frowned slightly.
True spirit is different from soul. It is the trace of life that has existed in the world. Unlike soul, it is difficult to erase. Before obtaining the reincarnation divine technique, even he could not do it.
It usually only disappears after the era is destroyed.
I refuse to believe it.
Jiang Yan waved his staff expressionlessly, and a massive beam of faith ignited, traversing all realms and reaching into reality.
A moment later, a young man riding a giant silver wolf appeared.
—It was Ainate who obtained the position of the true god of time.
"Lord God, you summoned me?" the visitor said respectfully.
Having witnessed the power of both the Holy Light and the Undead pantheons, he had completely sided with Jiang Yan.
"Do me a favor and turn back time here to twenty-three years ago."
"This entire space?"
"Just that area will do." Jiang Yan pointed and used his divine power to define a range.
"No problem, please wait a moment, Lord."
Ainate breathed a sigh of relief. He was only a high-level god at the moment, and he couldn't possibly reverse the flow of a million miles of territory in one go.
The power of the laws of time quietly descended, transforming into two cyan lights that surrounded his hands.
"retreat!"
As he slightly rotated his right hand, the scene in the entire area began to rapidly reverse.
From nothingness, it transformed into a meteorite stream, with spaceships occasionally passing through it.
"stop!"
Upon seeing a black, domestically-oriented spaceship appear, Jiang Yan immediately shouted.
"Stop the reverse flow, slow it down tenfold."
"good."
Ainate responded, his right hand rotating back while his left hand moved slightly, and everything in the arena slowed down instantly.
Jiang Yan's eyes flashed slightly as he activated the "This Life" divine technique, staring intently at everything on the screen.
This divine art can see through all illusions and truths; if there is anything unusual, it will never escape observation.
To avoid the small spatial vortex below, the black spaceship activated its accelerator and flew upwards. Just then, a large fragment broke off from a meteorite and struck the spaceship, which exploded into pieces before it could even react.
"Accelerate back to the present."
Jiang Yan stared at the replaying screen and continued to give instructions.
The power of time surged once more, rapidly shifting within the area until it returned to the current time.
—Nothing is abnormal.
