All attributes increased by 30%, and learned a new skill: Glory Praise.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Glory Praise: Upon activating this skill, within the next 100 seconds, all attacks will carry an additional 50% Light Attribute attack. Each attack will sequentially inflict five negative statuses on the enemy: Armor -20%, Attack Power -20%, Move Speed -20%, Attack Speed -20%, Hit Rate -20%.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When a single enemy simultaneously possesses these five negative statuses, it triggers all negative statuses, causing 150% Light Attribute damage.

was immediately shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every five attacks, causing 150% explosive damage, plus 50% Light Attribute attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This effectively multiplied Assam’s output capability several times over!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most vital part was that this skill was a sustained state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That meant it was very likely to receive a boost from [Eternal Power], becoming permanent!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So powerful, huh?” Cao Xing couldn’t help but marvel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this skill, Assam’s output might very well rival Andrew’s or even surpass it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the Lake Goddess continued, “You have passed three of the five trials.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There are still the last two, which are Generosity and Heroic.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“However, these two virtues cannot be proven with words but only through action.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So next, please help five people who genuinely need assistance to prove your virtue of Generosity.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then, alone, kill a beast stronger by one tier than yourself to prove your virtue of Heroic.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Lake Goddess looked at Cao Xing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As the lord of this knight, you may assist him in completing this task.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, you may also choose to end it here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, a system prompt appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Do you accept the Lake Goddess’s trial quest?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the system prompt, Cao Xing sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This trial of the Lake Goddess is truly troublesome…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A lot of efforts were spent to complete the previous three trials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the last two trials, he still had to do tasks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Cao Xing knew this was normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, it concerned a complete Legendary Weapon, stronger than the broken Magdala he possessed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To speak about it—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just opening the Knight Trial’s prerequisite quests was already off the charts in difficulty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Firstly, it required at least a Leader Level Snow Demon Tongue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This first requirement alone stumped countless people!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the second challenge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was to fish up the King Salmon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It at least required a Golden Quality rod, and one must have strong enough capabilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the King Salmon’s strength in water is terrifying, and it sprays a very lethal water column.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it weren’t for Chino, whose strength was unknown but certainly formidable, being nearby, they could only watch the King Salmon escape, and the entire army might be annihilated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The third challenge was releasing the King Salmon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was also an extreme test of one’s heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under normal circumstances, if Cao Xing hadn’t known beforehand, he absolutely wouldn’t have let that King Salmon go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Cao Xing, by a series of fortunate coincidences, successfully opened this Knight Trial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, with Assam’s efforts, the first three trials were passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having reached this critical juncture, Cao Xing definitely wouldn’t give up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he clicked accept.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, a system prompt appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Successfully accepted the task: The Lake Goddess’s Five Virtues Trial]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Mercy, Honor, Wisdom trials completed, remaining: Generosity, Heroic trials not completed.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Generosity Trial: Help 5 individuals who genuinely need assistance, current progress: 0\u002F5]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Heroic Trial: Have Knight Assam solo kill a creature of the same tier exceeding by 10 levels, current progress: 0\u002F1]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing the task prompt, Cao Xing pondered for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To help five people who need help, and to kill a Leader creature over 10 levels above Assam?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These two trial tasks were difficult if you said they were difficult, but simple if you said they were simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, with Cao Xing’s various blessings, Assam should have the capability to challenge across tiers alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The difficulty lay in how to find suitable opponents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the [Generosity Trial], helping five individuals who genuinely need assistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How would Cao Xing know who genuinely needs help?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, having come this far, he could only take one step at a time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The alluring Lake Goddess softly said, “Once you complete the remaining two trials, you may return to Snow Fall Lake to summon me, at which time I shall grant you the Legendary Weapon: Yalong Dijit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good luck…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having said this, she submerged again in the lake water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaving everyone exchanging glances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The newly advanced Leader Assam also walked back and stood respectfully beside Cao Xing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xing praised, “Assam, well done.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Others also expressed encouragement to Assam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Assam humbly said, “It was the encouragement from Lord that gave me great confidence, allowing me to pass these two trials.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Chino added, “Lord Cao Xing, in time, knights chosen by the Lake Goddess will become famous throughout the Ice Crystal Kingdom.”\u003C\u002Fp>",883,"2026-05-28T19:24:00.560Z","2026-06-01T04:28:50.701Z",1,"novelbin.me","3762b4cab3b7bfa65408bc48a334a307ec88d4b468c37fa7861be706994d357d","apocalypse-descent-farming-with-my-harem-chapter-409","apocalypse-descent-farming-with-my-harem-chapter-407",1544,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fapocalypse-descent-farming-with-my-harem-cover.jpg"]
