It was late at night. Other than the patrolling guards, the entire City Lord's Mansion was silent. However, in this silent night, a room suddenly lit up with a dazzling red light. It was Dou Qi.
Following a loud explosion, the entire building collapsed. At the same time, five dazzling pillars of light shot out from around the building, forming a massive magic array in the sky.
However, the magic array did not last long before a figure flew out from the ruins. With a flash of red light, the entire magic array collapsed, and the figure appeared in the open space outside the house in the next moment.
"Michelle, come out. You can't escape from my territory.”His voice resounded throughout the entire city lord's mansion. As his voice fell, countless flames lit up. Rows of soldiers appeared and surrounded the outer perimeter of the guest room area. The arrowheads of the arrows were engraved with circles of magic patterns. These were magic breaking arrows that were specially used to deal with mages.
Under the illumination of the fire, the figure on the empty ground revealed his face. He was wearing tight red armor and holding a huge long saber. This person was the guardian of Jade West City's Pass, Broweiss.
What responded to Broweis was a sky full of fireballs. Countless fireballs appeared in the air and fell on the courtyard like raindrops. Before the soldiers on the periphery could react, they were hit by these extremely hot fireballs.
For a moment, the scene was filled with wails.
Seventh-Grade Fire Spell, Fire Rain.
"Bang!" Ignoring the life and death of the soldiers, Broweiss stomped his feet, and the stones on the floor instantly shattered. At the same time, he shot out like an arrow.
Rumble! A large tree by the side of the courtyard instantly collapsed, and a blue figure flew down from it.
"Bang!" A violent collision, lightning, flames, and white light instantly mixed and exploded, illuminating the courtyard.
The light quickly disappeared, and a young man with a pale face stood on the empty ground. Not far away from him was Broweiss, who was holding a long blade and wrapped in fiery red battle energy armor.
"As expected of a magus of the seventh rank of the fourth element. He managed to block my full-powered attack with his multi-layered magic defense. However, such an opportunity will never come again.”Broweiss sneered.
"Aren't you afraid that the High Priest will pursue this matter?”The young man said loudly. He was Lin Yue. When night fell, he felt a sense of palpitation as if some danger was approaching, so he hurriedly began to set up.
A mage's powerful mental strength allowed them to sense the arrival of danger. As a grade-7 mage, Lin Yue could even sense the malice from his surroundings.
However, he did not expect that the person who attacked him would be the 9th Rank Warrior Broweiss, the border guardian of the Empire.
"My death in exchange for a genius is worth it.”Broweiss did not say much and attacked again.
"Prepare the Devil-breaking Sword. I want this genius to have no way to escape!”Broweis 'words made the soldiers who had been thrown into confusion by the spell " Fire Rain " gather again. They drew their bows to the maximum. As soon as Lin Yue escaped Broweis' attack, countless arrows with the effect of breaking magic would fly towards Lin Yue. Facing so many Demon Breaking Swords, even Lin Yue, who had the defense of a level-seven spell, could only suffer.
Suddenly, a misty starlight lit up. A long sword met Broweiss 'long saber. The long sword twisted slightly, and at the same time, a powerful force erupted. With an ingenious angle and explosive force, Broweiss's saber, which was slashing at Lin Yue with great force, was deflected to the side.
"Phew!" The wind blew beside Lin Yue, causing his loose robe to flutter.
Broweiss reacted extremely quickly. After his saber missed, he threw a punch with his left hand. Even a warrior of the eighth rank could not withstand a punch from a warrior of the ninth rank, let alone Lin Yue, whose physique was even weaker than a warrior of the seventh rank.
"Rip!" A scroll in Lin Yue's hand was torn apart, and a transparent ripple appeared on the surface of Lin Yue's body, blocking Broweiss 'fist.
"Buzz!" Lin Yue's sword let out a soft hum, and misty starlight appeared on his sword again. It landed on Broweiss 'body like lightning.
However, Broweiss 'red battle energy armor blocked Lin Yue's full-powered sword.
" Seventh-Grade power!" Broweis felt the power of Lin Yue's sword, and his expression changed. Then, he revealed a cruel expression,""Unfortunately, the difference between rank 7 and rank 9 is too great. Then, you can go to hell!"
Breweiss 'aura burst forth, and his red battle energy was as hot as flames. A long saber that emitted a dense light slashed over again.
There was no way to block it. There was no way to block it.
Lin Yue felt hopeless when he saw the blade that was no weaker than the previous one. He had no way to defend himself now. Unless he had a magic scroll, it would take too long to activate a grade-7 defensive spell. Lin Yue had no chance to activate it.
Moreover, a full-powered attack from a warrior of the ninth rank was not something that could be blocked by a single spell of the seventh rank.
"Are we really going to die? He was still too careless.”Lin Yue thought helplessly.
At the moment of life and death, Lin Yue had many thoughts.
He thought about how careful he had been when he first arrived in this world, how he had felt when he had found out that Dillon was his father, how he had been so proud of himself for being able to surpass everyone else at the Ernst Institute, and how he had been so ridiculous for not having a clear goal in his cultivation. Finally, Lin Yue thought about why he had come to this world.
"As a game cheat player, if I don't destroy the balance of the game, how can I face myself? After coming to this world, if he didn't see the wonders of this world, how could he live up to his principles?”Lin Yue's eyes lit up. His thoughts were suddenly motivated. At the same time, he seemed to have sensed Lin Yue's condition. The warrior power in Lin Yue's dantian began to boil.
"Level 7!" The transformation of his warrior power was completed almost instantly. The moment he stepped into the seventh rank, Lin Yue suddenly felt that no one could stop him.
"It seems much weaker." Lin Yue was calm. Looking at the sure-kill move of Bruvess, Lin Yue's sword lit up again.
A stream of blood spurted out along with a flying head. The headless corpse was standing in front of Lin Yue. The long blade that had slashed Lin Yue had lost its luster. The moment the blade touched Lin Yue's body, it was shattered by a layer of Starlight Warrior Power Armor.
"Then, do you choose to surrender or die?”Lin Yue looked at the soldiers who were stunned by the sudden change, his eyes cold.
"Sir, please spare my life!" A small leader put down his bow and knelt down to beg.
"Haha." Lin Yue sneered. He had changed his mind.
"Tsk tsk." Suddenly, countless lightning bolts appeared and spread out with Lin Yue as the center. Soon, a huge lightning pool covered the entire courtyard.
"Ah ~" All the soldiers who came into contact with the lightning fell to the ground while twitching. The weaker ones were directly turned into ashes.
Seventh-Grade Lightning Spell, Elemental Lightning Pool.
This grade-7 spell that covered a radius of several dozen meters quickly cleared out all the living beings in the surroundings, turning them into dust by the powerful lightning. Even if some quick-witted soldiers jumped to a higher place, they were also struck down by the lightning that flew out of the lightning pool.
Lin Yue withdrew his magic and sat down. His blue robe had been tattered from the battle, but he had no intention of changing it. He just wanted to have a good sleep.
Using a few powerful grade-7 spells in a row, even with the help of the cheat, was still a little too much for his mental strength, and more than half of the magic power in his body was consumed. In addition, he only had one or two single-use grade-7 magic scrolls left in his storage ring. None of the defensive ones were left.
"Not at all. I've finally reached the seventh rank. From now on, I'm invincible below the Saint-level.”Lin Yue, who had a cheat, was an important milestone in his career as a warrior. Once he reached level-seven, his strength would reach the peak of level-nine under the powerful boost of the cheat. There would be no opponents below the Sanctuary-realm.
"This special skill has finally changed." Compared to the transformation and power brought by reaching Level Seven, Lin Yue was more concerned about the changes in his cheat.
In his sea of consciousness, he saw that under the special skill column of the cheat template, the percentage of damage bonus for single-handed weapons directly jumped from the original 10% to 20%. In other words, his current strength bonus was 20 times, 10 times more than before.
Right now, Lin Yue felt as if he wasn't afraid of an early-stage Saint.
Lin Yue, who had a Saint-level combatant as his father, knew very well the difference between a Saint-level combatant and a peak ninth-rank combatant.
In terms of strength, an early-stage Saint-level combatant was only ten times stronger than a peak-stage Saint-level combatant. What made a Saint-level combatant even stronger than a peak-stage Saint-level combatant was their comprehension of the Laws of Heaven and Earth. Not to mention those peak-stage Saint-level combatants who had already comprehended the Laws of Heaven and Earth, even those early-stage Saint-level combatants who had comprehended Shi were able to make it difficult for a peak-stage Saint-level combatant to unleash their full strength with just Shi alone. This was the true reason why the Sanctuaries were so powerful.
Of course, there were many other aspects in which a Saint was stronger than a powerhouse of the ninth rank, such as the soul, the body, flight, and so on. A Saint surpassed a powerhouse of the ninth rank in all aspects.
Now that Lin Yue had stepped into level-seven, he might not be able to compare to a Saint in other aspects, but in terms of pure strength, he was comparable to a Saint in the early or middle stages.
"Next, my goal should be to begin comprehending the profound mysteries of the Laws. The first step to comprehending the profound mysteries of the Laws is to reach the peak of one's skill, to be able to lift heavy objects as if they were light or to lift light objects as if they were heavy. Only then will I be able to come into contact with 'Imposing', and then the profound mysteries of the Laws." After reading the original novel and having the guidance of a Sanctuary-realm expert, Lin Yue quickly decided on his next goal.
"Why does this Broweis want to kill me? In the Yulan Empire, I don't think there is anyone who would dare to disobey the High Priest's orders. In that case, this Broweis might be someone from another power.”After Lin Yue set his cultivation goal, he began to focus on tonight's assassination.
"It seems that after ten thousand years, the Yulan Empire has decayed as well. They didn't even know that a border general was someone else's spy.”Lin Yue sighed.
The Yulan Empire had the High Priest, a Deity, overseeing it, so it basically didn't have to worry about being destroyed. Over the past ten thousand years, countless empires and countries had been destroyed, but the Yulan Empire was the only one that had remained standing. It had only been separated into a few regions, and the key to this was undoubtedly the High Priest.
It was precisely because of this that the upper echelons of the Yulan Empire gradually became corrupted. They began to adopt a policy of letting many territories and territories roam freely, not caring about them at all. After so many years, the Yulan Empire had long since been infiltrated by countless spies from other powers. In fact, some regions had already been secretly controlled by other powers.
In this regard, the upper echelons of the Yulan Empire turned a blind eye. After all, as long as the High Priest was around, the Yulan Empire would not perish. Even if they lost control of some territories, it would not matter.
"I wonder what kind of mentality these people will have if those Deities descend.”Lin Yue thought back to how Olivier had released a large number of Deities from the Planar Prison with a single sword strike in the original novel, causing the entire Yuren Continent to undergo a tremendous change. He felt sorry for these people.
"Right, a Divine level expert!" Lin Yue was shocked.
The arrival of Deities would not only cause a massive upheaval in the Yulan continent, but even Lin Yue himself would be in danger. Demigods, Gods, and Highgods. The difference between each level was enormous, and to Saints, Demigods were invincible existences. Thinking of this, Lin Yue's calm heart was shaken again.
"We can't let this happen again.”Lin Yue made a decision in his heart, not for others, but for himself.
Lin Yue, who had a cheat, knew very well that in terms of talent in training, he was far inferior to geniuses like Olivier and Linley. If it weren't for the existence of the cheat, he would have needed at least several decades to reach the Saint-level by himself, and that included his fortuitous encounters. Otherwise, he would have needed even more time. After all, his talent as a warrior was not particularly high, and it was much more difficult for a mage to reach the Saint-level than for a warrior. Even the main character, Linley, with his talent, needed nearly ten years to reach the Saint-level after becoming a Grand Magus of the ninth rank. From this, one could imagine how difficult it was for a magus to reach the Saint-level.
As a result, Lin Yue wasn't very confident that he could reach the Deity level. After all, comprehending the profound mysteries of the Laws was something that no one could be certain of. This required not only talent, but also luck.
It would be fine if Lin Yue could reach the Divine level. After reaching the Divine level, he could rely on his cheat to fight against a Mid-level God with the power of a Low-level God, or even the peak of a Mid-level God. This way, he could be considered to have the ability to protect himself.
If Lin Yue could not reach the Divine level, no matter how powerful his cheat was, he would not be able to resist the Divine level.
After all, training in this world relied more on the profound mysteries of the Laws.
"Have you taken care of them?" Suddenly, a voice rang out, startling Lin Yue.
"Father?" Lin Yue turned his head and saw Dillon looking at him with a proud and aloof expression. There was a trace of inquiry in his eyes.
"Yes." Lin Yue stood up and said.
"Broweiss is a powerhouse of the ninth rank. Although you have reached the seventh rank, the gap is still too great.”Dillon questioned.
"It was just luck." Lin Yue said.
"Luck?" Dillon glared at Lin Yue and released a powerful aura that pressed down on him.
"Are you questioning me? I don't think I need to answer you!”Lin Yue looked at him without any fear.
To be honest, the current Lin Yue was not as strong as Dillon. Although Dillon was a Sanctuary Contender, he was the weakest Sanctuary Contender. Now that Lin Yue had been strengthened by a warrior of the seventh rank by 20 times, he was no longer weaker than Dillon. If they really fought, both sides would suffer. Moreover, as Dillon's only son, Lin Yue would not dare to kill him.
"Looks like you think you can resist me.”Dillon sneered.
"That's what you think. I didn't say anything.”Lin Yue said.
"Although I don't know how you dealt with Broweiss, if you think you have the capital to resist the Sanctuary-realm just like that, then I'm very disappointed in you.”Dillon said.
"Since you have so much time to teach me a lesson, why don't you think about how to increase your strength?”Lin Yue mocked. He had some understanding of his so-called father. Ever since he had stepped into the Saint-level, he had been arrogant. Nearly a hundred years had passed, but he still hadn't made any progress.
If he remembered correctly, on the day before the 10000 year of the Yulan calendar, on the Day of Destruction, Olivier had reached the Saint-level. He had then directly challenged Dillon, defeating him with just three strikes. The Stellar Sword Saint had become the stepping stone for the Prodigy Sword Saint.
And there were still two more years until that time. Right now, it was year 9998 of the Yulan calendar. Lin Yue was already 14 years old.
"What do you mean?" Dillon didn't get angry. Instead, he frowned and said.
"Back then, you also stepped on other experts to get to where you are today. Aren't you afraid of becoming someone else's stepping stone?”Lin Yue said.
"You don't have to worry about this. Since you don't want to tell me, I won't force you. You've reached the seventh rank as a warrior, and you've also reached the seventh rank as a magus. I believe that the High Priest will be even more pleased to see you.”Dillon said.
"Do you know which force Broweis from?”Lin Yue suddenly asked.
"I'll investigate this. Now, come back with me.”Dillon lifted Lin Yue up, and without waiting for him to resist, he transformed into a streak of light and flew back into the Yulan Empire.
