Lin Yi successfully enhanced a War God's hammer to +45, surpassing Sun Dachuan's previous achievements. News of Lin Yi's mastery spread rapidly across Blue Star, leading him to announce a global lottery. Ninety-nine lucky professionals will receive free +45 enhancements from Lin Yi, with a registration fee of 200,000 Xia dollars.

For Lin Yi, improving his equipment was of utmost importance. His skills had already reached an exceptional level, and his martial soul was top-tier. The only remaining aspect needing enhancement and enchantment was his equipment. More accurately, a crucial element was missing: the equipment itself! Previously, Lin Yi had intended to assemble the complete All Heavens Destruction Set, whose six-piece bonus upgraded all All Heavens’ Silence equipment to legendary quality. This plan stemmed from his limitations back then; he hadn’t considered dungeons beyond the Soul Suppressing grade. However, Lin Yi was now the strongest being on Blue Star, and the dungeons of Blue Star could no longer pose a challenge. After careful consideration, Lin Yi decided to delve into the Descent Abyss once more. Enhancing the equipment for the 99 lucky War Gods could wait. A lottery of such magnitude, with such significant rewards, naturally demanded thorough preparation. Lin Yi allotted himself ample time to acquire the necessary equipment. He only needed to make an announcement: the lottery registration would remain open for a month, followed by a global live broadcast for the draw, ensuring absolute fairness. Following the draw, Lin Yi would proceed with enhancing the equipment based on the winning order. Lin Yi also had plans for the proceeds. Although his parents now lived comfortably, they often felt that the subsidies from Shenxiao weren't quite sufficient. Despite Lin Guodong and his wife interacting with many who sought to become War Gods under Lin Yi, they hadn't accepted any benefits. Their lives were decent but not opulent. For reasons unknown, Xia currency still seemed vital for enhancing one's strength. Consequently, Lin Yi didn't allocate all the Xia currency from the Blue Star War God lottery participation to his parents. The 1.6 billion Xia currency, representing only 20% of Lin Yi’s earnings from this event, was enough to secure the safety of ordinary families on Blue Star for generations. The remainder he kept for himself, potentially to save Blue Star during a critical moment. After a strenuous encounter with Lin Yi, Sun Dachuan, thoroughly drained yet immensely satisfied as a worthy opponent, drifted into a deep, contented sleep. That sleep lasted for two entire days. On the morning of the third day, the gentle sunlight warming Sun Dachuan’s face gently roused him from his slumber, filling him with an unparalleled sense of comfort. Having not resided in an isolated villa, Sun Dachuan was long accustomed to the morning’s hustle and bustle. Yet, the noise of this particular morning felt strangely familiar. "Hmph, I thought you’d forgotten about your senior sister. You visited my house once, and my old man genuinely believed we were dating. He pesters me daily, asking when I'll bring you home." "Hehe, Senior Sister, perhaps if you made an effort, it might just work. Since Yi joined the school, you’ve assisted him immensely. Such companionship is rare and by no means comparable to ordinary girls, especially considering your beauty...." The portly Feng Sanyou grinned with such dramatic flair that even Lin Yi found it unbearable. *Slap!* Nangong Ling’s palm connected with his face. "You plump brat, can’t you say anything pleasant? How could I possibly engage in such a situation, like an old cow feasting on young grass? While Lin Yi is the male god of our entire Shenxiao, perhaps even all of Blue Star, I am his Senior Sister!" As she spoke, Nangong Ling’s expression was exceedingly theatrical. In that moment, she used anger to mask the turmoil within her heart. 'Unlike Lin Yi?' If she herself didn't believe it, how could she possibly convince others? Every glance she cast at Lin Yi was imbued with a tenderness akin to flowing water, as warm as fine silk gauze; who could possibly claim those eyes held no admiration? "No, what are you doing, making such a racket outside my dorm room so early in the morning? What’s the matter? Is Lin Yi bro about to tie the knot with War God Xiyue, and you can’t handle it, Nangong Ling?" The moment these words were uttered, Nangong Ling instantly activated her skills, her demeanor suggesting she wouldn't rest until Sun Dachuan was vanquished. After a brief period of boisterous activity, Lin Yi employed a gravity-based skill, immobilizing them all. "Alright, everyone," he announced. "Our days of teaming up for dungeons have long since passed. Don't you all miss those times? Why don't we form a team again and tackle higher-level Descent Abyss dungeons, aiming for some legendary gear?" Lin Yi's proposal instantly evoked a flood of memories in the trio. Yes, how long had it truly been since they had last teamed up for dungeons together?

The most disheartening part was that Lin Yi’s Descent Abyss dungeon had only progressed to level 36.

Despite possessing the greatest strength among them, his limited progress was indeed a point of significant dismay.

"I’ve already sorted out your school leave. Although your Descent Abyss layers are deeper than mine, accompanying me on this excursion will undoubtedly be beneficial. What do you say?"

What could be more enticing than joining forces with Lin Yi? Was there any conceivable reason to refuse such an offer?

Inside the cockpit of the Lingyue, Nangong Ling reclined on a chair, indulging in a massage. A certain thought unexpectedly escaped her lips.

"Hey, did you know, a thousand years ago, Blue Star had this thing called stocks? Legend has it that this endeavor depended solely on foresight. Do you think if our principal had been born a millennium earlier and engaged in stocks, wouldn't he have had a 100% certainty of becoming the wealthiest individual?"

Sun Dachuan and Feng Sanyou, unable to fathom Nangong Ling’s musings, immediately probed further, driven by their curiosity.

"Lingyue, one of Shenxiao’s affiliated vessels, was bestowed upon Junior Lin Yi just like that. Isn't this blatant favoritism? This is precisely why people say our principal has a remarkable eye. He probably foresaw that Junior Lin Yi would one day ascend to become Blue Star’s number one, correct?"

The Ghost Train dungeon is situated right within Xia.

In the western precinct of Xia.

After a millennium of advancement, the terrifying tales that once circulated in this region have long since vanished into the annals of history.

Only Lin Yi, as a transmigrator, held the knowledge of this place’s once sinister past.

As an affiliated vessel of Shenxiao, Lingyue’s navigable routes extended across the entirety of Xia's map.

The group opted against directly utilizing the Teleportation Array, thus avoiding any unnecessary delays.

Presently, in the western precinct, advanced technology flourishes in every corner.

Human presence is primarily concentrated in the central urban areas of the western region. This striking vision, a harmonious blend of Xia's advancements and nature's embrace, creates a truly spectacular sight.

To circumvent any potential disruptions, Lin Yi deliberately invoked the [Seventy-Two Transformations] effect upon everyone, preemptively warding off the appearance of overzealous fans.

The location of the Foggy Tale dungeon is a notably unique small town within the western precinct, known as Wuli.

To expedite their journey, the Lingyue made only a brief stop above the major city of the western region before continuing its course directly towards the destination—an ancient forest perpetually veiled in dense fog, teeming with abundant flora and fauna.
