Chapter 11: Your Merit Through the Ages! What Did We Come Here For?

Swish—

The thought just arose.

Chen Junlin reacted fast enough. Almost in the first moment, he put away the battle armor and long sword that had swallowed a large amount of alien blood and souls. The murderous aura on his body finally reduced a lot, no longer as aggressive as at the beginning, and a faint and confident smile appeared on his face.

"Ahem, it seems everyone knows!"

"Hmm..."

"Chen Junlin of Jianghai, fortunately did not disgrace the mission, cleared the 'Plane Advancement Trial', and obtained the 'Plane Advancement Authority'!"

"From now on, the entire Tianlan Star will have the qualification to compete on the same stage with the Heavens and Myriad Worlds, and will no longer be prey that can only passively endure the invasion of the Heavens and Myriad Races!"

Hum—

After saying that.

Chen Junlin slowly extended his right hand. A crystal-clear crystal stone shone with mysterious and profound light. It was a gemstone presenting a spiral texture, and its center seemed to contain an endless universe, making people unable to ignore it at a glance.

This crystal stone was the ultimate reward Chen Junlin obtained after passing the "Survival Arena," a symbol of the "Plane Advancement Authority," possessing the supreme power sufficient to advance a universe plane.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! As soon as it was taken out, the pure energy fluctuations contained within it made everyone at the scene turn pale with shock, completely able to feel that heart-palpitating power.

That feeling was as if they were standing under the starry sky looking up at the sky, feeling the bewilderment and powerlessness toward the infinite stars... within sight but beyond reach.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, the crystal light flourished, as if stimulated by some supreme rule, and beams of sky-blue light shot out from it, rushing straight into the sky.

The sky-blue light beams intertwined in the air, then formed a huge light net, wrapping the entire Tianlan Star, as if connecting the fortune and fate of all living beings through the internet.

At this very moment, all living beings on Tianlan Star felt this powerful and special power.

At the same time!

Everyone, at the same time, received an "information" in the depths of their souls.

【The representative of this universe arena—Chen Junlin, won first place in the "Plane Advancement Trial"—Survival Arena, and obtained the "Plane Advancement Authority"!】

【From this moment on, the living beings of this universe, after awakening a "Dragon Spirit", can obtain the qualification to link to the Heavens and Myriad Worlds Network through the "Sentient Beings Luck Net", enter the universe worlds of the Heavens and Myriad Races, and compete with the Heavens and Myriad Races!】

【Universe advancement completed, the whole world celebrates, the living beings of this universe obtain a full-body physical and soul attribute strengthening!】

【Arena representative—Chen Junlin, merit through the ages, righteous and awe-inspiring, additionally obtained a tenfold physical and soul attribute blessing!】

"The Plane Advancement Authority possesses the ability to communicate with the Heavens and Myriad Worlds. It can allow Tianlan Star to establish connections with various universe planes from now on, allowing us to transform from passively enduring invasions to actively exploring the unknown! From now on, Tianlan Star no longer needs to be like before, only able to let the Heavens and Myriad Races erode it, but instead can push back against the Heavens and Myriad Races!"

Chen Junlin's eyes flashed with excited light.

To be honest, he didn't expect that the Nightmare-level different dimension he encountered this time would be the "Plane Advancement Trial Space"—Survival Arena.

This is a way for countless "prey universes" similar to "Tianlan Star" in the Heavens and Myriad Worlds to gradually transform into "universes to be advanced," and obtain the permission to "descend" into other universe planes.

The so-called "prey universe" is completely prey to the Heavens and Myriad Worlds, just like Tianlan Star a thousand years ago. The world has no protection, the living beings have no awakening means, and the Heavens and Myriad Races can easily descend into reality to slaughter and plunder everything.

And once this "prey universe," in the process of being gradually devoured, gives birth to some special counter-forces, or the living beings awaken counter-means, it means that the living beings of this universe have good potential and will be regarded as a "universe to be advanced"... And this kind of "universe to be advanced" will be protected by some rule of the Heavens and Myriad Worlds, and the Heavens and Myriad Races can only invade in the form of "different dimensions."

Overall, the entire Heavens and Myriad Races is a naked "survival of the fittest, strong survive, weak are eliminated" system! However, "universes to be advanced" are ultimately just "universes to be advanced," and can only defend passively, which is not a very good situation. One must become an "advanced universe" to be considered truly powerful, and from then on have infinite room for growth.

And to become an "advanced universe," besides the first "transcendent being" who breaks the universe shackles appearing in the universe, the only remaining way is to pass the "advanced universe trial" assessment and obtain the "advanced universe authority." Moreover, this "advanced universe authority" can only be obtained by the first place! Every time the participating universes compete on the same stage, there are a total of ten thousand!

However—

To obtain the first place in the "Plane Advancement Trial," it means that you need to possess the means to crush the arena participants of ten thousand universe worlds. The difficulty and danger can be imagined.

As the participant who obtained the final reward and was the only survivor.

Chen Junlin naturally saw the means of those alien powerhouses, especially the alien participants in the final circle of the last few areas, whose means were quite fierce.

If it weren't for the talent characteristic of "Huanggu Shenglong," Chen Junlin really didn't know how a One-Star Dragon Spirit Master could defeat those alien prodigies who were fully prepared.

After all!

For those relatively powerful "universes to be advanced," they had long made full preparations for this kind of "Plane Advancement Trial," and would use some special means to dispatch top prodigies from their universe planes to participate.

"I originally thought that Tianlan Star was still weak, and probably didn't know about this kind of 'Plane Advancement Trial'."

"I didn't expect that I still underestimated it!"

"Not only do they know about the 'Plane Advancement Trial', but they can also know the result in advance and dispatch so many people to welcome and celebrate... it's really normal!"

Chen Junlin sighed secretly in his heart. It seems that the true foundation of Tianlan Star is by no means as simple as it appears on the surface.

That's good too. After being connected to the "Heavens and Myriad Worlds Network," Tianlan Star won't appear too weak.

However—

What Chen Junlin didn't notice at all was.

From the moment he took out the "Plane Advancement Trial" until the entire Tianlan Star plane completed its advancement and linked to the Heavens and Myriad Worlds Network... throughout the whole process.

The gazes of the people around him became more and more strange, more and more bewildered, more and more shocked, more and more excited, until more and more reverent and worshipful...

Heavens!

What exactly did they just experience?! This Chen Junlin...

Does he even know what kind of earth-shattering commotion he made!

What kind of incredible merit through the ages!!!

At this moment—

Even Lu Zhanqiu, the General Commander of the Nine Provinces Special Department and one of the Ten Guardian War Generals, was trembling and shivering all over, and there was a trace of excited waves in his old eyes...

And Qin Shouzheng, the Jiangzhou Special Department General Commander, was staring with big eyes, his jaw dropped to the ground in shock.

What is this for!? Clearly... he was just joining in the fun, coming to see the awakening ceremony of the brat his daughter often talked about!

Clearly... he just encountered a special Nightmare-level different dimension and shook a bunch of people to save this kid! How did it become... this sky, it seems like it's about to change?

Brothers, give some recommendation votes.
