I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second Chapter 759: Dungeon Challengers Who Give NPCs a Headache
Previously on I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second...
Under such rules, the pressure on Nangong Ling and the other two is still quite significant.
Daily training is indeed very rigorous. As students of Shenxiao, hard work and competition have never stopped.
However, when it comes to striving desperately, the three felt they couldn’t match Lin Yi.
Regarding clearing the fifty-level instance, the three are full of enthusiasm but not entirely confident.
With a slight activation of their Source Power, the gravity-based skill [Gravity Manipulation] was instantly cast, neutralizing the gravitational pull binding the four to the ground with an even stronger upward force, exerting Lin Yi’s power towards the sky.
Under the influence of this upward force, the four began to soar towards the mountaintop.
Veiling mist enveloped the mountain, with fleeting scenes flashing before their eyes. In less than two minutes, the group successfully left the ground thousands of miles behind and reached Olympus Peak.
After years of time’s baptism, this once-majestic sacred place was now covered in a thick layer of dust.
Golden sunlight spilled over the broken walls, imparting a sense of desolation.
Despite this, Lin Yi and the others could still faintly feel the Divine Power from this old godly site.
The classical architecture on the summit, though riddled with pits and covered in ruins, retained a sense of majesty that continued to exert pressure on Nangong Ling and the others.
"Judging by your expressions, it seems you’ve felt something. Not bad, not bad."
The Divine Power granted by the white-bearded immortal would last for only a few minutes.
In these few minutes, the three could remember the flavor of Divine Power, which was already quite a feat.
The trio did not respond but looked seriously at Lin Yi, listening to his praise of their efforts.
"Next, I will open the instance. Getting adapted in advance isn’t a bad thing for you."
With that, Lin Yi took out an invitation to the fiftieth level of Descent Abyss from his personal space and tossed it towards the temple.
This time, delving into Descent Abyss was different from before.
The viscous dark purple matter didn’t emerge; even throughout the instance’s activation process, no scenes related to evil appeared; instead, a comforting golden Holy Light was seen.
As the golden Holy Light fell upon the fiftieth level instance invitation of Descent Abyss, it successfully passed through the invitation, scattering its light across the ruins.
In the next instant, a miraculous event occurred.
Wherever the Holy Light passed, the broken elements were restored; the temple’s wear and tear through the river of time were entirely erased, and the splendor and solemnity of days past were fully revived at this moment.
It seemed that the sacred golden light had repaired everything, but in reality, Lin Yi and his companions had entered the realm of this fiftieth level instance of Descent Abyss.
As Nangong Ling and the others stood dumbfounded, a golden pillar of light descended heavily in front of the four.
Once the blinding Holy Light dimmed, the silhouette within the pillar gradually came into view.
It was a robust man dressed in the attire of the Ancient Athena Kingdom, with blonde hair, blue eyes, and a confident smile.
He gazed at Lin Yi and the others, his eyes filled with gentleness.
"To have reached this level of the instance, it seems you have already become outstanding figures on your respective planets. Next, I, Ares, will provide you with a brand new trial. Are you ready?"
"After passing this trial, you will gain power that surpasses your current limits and receive new insights!"
War God Ares from the mythological system of the Ancient Athena Kingdom.
Unexpectedly, the figures from Athena Country’s mythical system seemed akin to those in Xia’s mythological system and were not mere fabrications.
Ares suddenly raised an eyebrow, looking strangely at Lin Yi.
"How could it be?!"
As a fellow possessor of Divine Power, or more accurately, as a god, Ares was extremely sensitive to the perception of Divine Power. At first glance, he saw that Lin Yi possessed an immensely powerful Divine Power and the Harmonization Layer Power of the Primordial that Blue Star shouldn’t have.
"To possess such strength at such a young age, and to have this power even before clearing this instance, how did you achieve it?"
Lin Yi did not answer this question.
"This seems irrelevant to passing the instance, right? I’m on a tight schedule, let’s get started soon."
Despite having a considerable position in the Divine Realm, Lin Yi’s words actually put Ares in a difficult spot.
On this fiftieth level of Descent Abyss, or more precisely in this godly site, Ares’ real body wasn’t present, only his Divine Power projection.
Even so, when setting challenges for the high-level professionals of Blue Star, he still did it with ease.
For ordinary high-level professionals without the Power of the Primordial or Divine Power, even as a War God, duplicating a replica possessing their identical strength is trivially easy.
But to replicate one identical to Lin Yi, for Ares’ Divine Power projection, was quite challenging.
With the will of Ares imbued in the projection, it was difficult to avoid complications.
Leaving aside Nangong Ling and the others, Lin Yi alone, with his strength far surpassing ordinary Divine Envoys, at a normal pace should be taking the Divine Envoy’s examination, yet here he was, stuck at the fiftieth level of Descent Abyss.
Ares’ Divine Power projection could certainly exhibit a portion of Ares’ strength, true, but only to a certain extent. The power a Divine Power projection could wield was limited.
Once excessively consumed, the Divine Power projection would dissipate.
Aware that creating a replica equal in strength to Lin Yi was feasible but questioned how long his projection’s remaining Divine Power could sustain it—even moments after creating such a replica, the projection would likely dissipate.
Thus, when Lin Yi urged to start the examination soon, Ares’ Divine Power projection revealed a conflicted expression.
"What? Is there some problem? Are you planning to give me a direct pass as well?"
Also? Could it be that this kid enjoyed this privilege multiple times before reaching this instance?
Honestly thinking about it, it wasn’t unreasonable. This kid’s strength was too overwhelming; ordinary Descent Abyss instances held no challenge for him, and letting him through directly indeed saved trouble.
But this fiftieth-level instance wasn’t just any checkpoint. A godly site represented divine dignity, and allowing Lin Yi to pass without a fight wouldn’t do justice to the god’s prestige, nor would it be fair to Lin Yi himself, would it?
"Alright, let the trial begin!"
Finishing the words, Ares’ Divine Power projection gathered energy at its fingertips before pointing at Nangong Ling and the others.
As one ancient and mysterious incantation was recited, three replicas composed of Divine Power, identical in appearance and aura to Nangong Ling and the others, appeared out of nowhere.
Ares’ Divine Power projection cleared his throat and said.
"This will be your examination task; defeat yourselves and break through your limits to pass this instance. In battle, there are no rule restrictions, but there’s one thing you must abide by: you cannot rely on anyone else’s help!"
