Chapter 134: Kill! The Revived Self! The Death Pillar! (Please Follow and Read)

The Soul-Devouring Demon Ant Queen Mother was merely a small fry under the command of the Main God-level Evil God, the Soul-Devouring God-Slugging Worm Queen Mother!

But after her Divine Nation merged with Yunlan Star, the crisis it brought was no small matter.

A massive quantity of Soul-Devouring Demon Ants flew out from within and began ravaging various regions of Yunlan Star.

The Daxia Alliance entered a state of war readiness; all cities stood in full preparedness, determined to minimize casualties.

To smoothly weather this fusion.

Over the years, there had been instances of chaos caused by roaming wild monsters.

But the vast majority of monsters were dungeon monsters that dutifully spawned continuously within their dungeons.

The fusion of the Divine Nation Plane, however, brought a large number of wild monsters.

They continuously flew out from within the range of the Soul-Devouring Demon Ant Queen Mother's Divine Nation dungeon, as if endless.

Fortunately, most of the Soul-Devouring Demon Ants were not high in level, and the various cities still had the strength to deal with them.

The students within the universities became an indispensable part of this effort.

Those who could enter a university basically had a certain level of aptitude, and after leveling up during this period, they were at least level twenty-something.

People like Mu Yunlan and the others had already completed their second job change and were nearing the third job change tier.

Spurred on by Lu Zheng, they were extremely diligent.

Watching the Soul-Devouring Demon Ants in the distance gathering together like dark clouds and flying toward them, Yang Dong unleashed a Flame Meteor skill.

Then he sighed, "If the boss were here, he could probably clear the entire sky with a single skill, right!?"

Wang Jun, hearing this, also thought of Lu Zheng and added, "Who knows what the boss is doing right now — don't tell me he's slaughtering another Evil God?!"

Dongfang Niaoniao curled her lips and said:

"If you two have the energy to think about useless things, you'd be better off killing a few more monsters and gaining some experience points. Lu Zheng is slaying gods now, and we still struggle to kill even these small monsters — how are we supposed to follow him?

Now it's even hard just to see him once!"

These words didn't spur Wang Jun and Yang Dong, but they did spur Mu Yunlan, Tantai Mingyue, and Ji Zirou.

They had all thought about being together with Lu Zheng.

But now, the gap was growing ever wider.

Let alone being together — even standing side by side felt somewhat out of place!

All three were proud, exceptional young women who considered themselves among the very best of their peers.

But among their peers, someone like Lu Zheng had appeared — a super-god! — Lu Zheng himself had no idea what was happening outside; he was now wholly focused on completing the assessment and finishing the Job Change Quest.

【Sixth Assessment Content: Kill! The Revived Self!】

【Description: The you from the first assessment has died. Subject to Death Summon, it will be revived! Kill it, overcome yourself!】

【Reward: Death Affinity +15%; Divine Skill: Death Summon】

In an instant, a black version of himself appeared before Lu Zheng.

Using the Illusion-Breaking Golden Eye to take a look, sure enough, this fellow's attributes and skills were exactly as his had been before dying in the first assessment.

His past self had been very powerful.

But without divine pets to assist him, without the later Four World-Turning Monkeys, without having mastered all divine pet skills, how could he be a match for his current self!? This assessment was absolutely a very difficult spot for that Main God-level Evil God, Oswaldo.

With all mighty power concentrated in one body, facing the very same self, very few people could truly overcome themselves! But for a summoner like Lu Zheng, this assessment was far too easy.

Without divine pets sharing mana, his main body's mana was only one billion two hundred million.

Lu Zheng directly used over eight billion mana to swiftly kill this revived self!

Even if the other party, like himself, possessed nine lives and could revive once after death, they still could not escape the fate of being killed.

Lu Zheng knew his own weaknesses with crystal clarity.

His past self, as a summoner, had far too many weaknesses.

But now, he could be called a hexagonal divine beast! Flawless, with no weaknesses.

Any single aspect taken out and compared to beings of the same tier would be an advantage! 【Ding! You have completed the sixth assessment content of the Death God King Divine Throne Inheritance Assessment: Kill! The Revived Self!】

【Congratulations on obtaining the reward: Death Affinity +15%; Divine Skill: Death Summon】

【Current Death Affinity: 160%】 Lu Zheng had already mastered the Divine Skill in advance.

Now, for Lu Zheng, the only remaining reward was the increase in Death Affinity.

Each increase allowed him to passively absorb and convert the Power of Death with greater efficiency.

He very much enjoyed this process of one effort, lifelong benefit! 【Seventh Assessment Content: Call of the Divine Artifact】

【Description: Every generation's Death God King has their own super divine artifact. When a Death God King falls, their exclusive divine artifact perishes along with them, leaving behind the artifact's origin source within the Death Abyss. Go to the Death Abyss, find the artifact's origin source, and awaken your own divine artifact!】

【Reward: Death Affinity +20%; Divine Skill: Blade of Death】

The Death God Assessment Token finally gave guidance again. Lu Zheng quickly arrived at the location of the so-called Death Abyss.

It was simply a circular place that looked like a well.

It had a diameter of roughly thirty li, pitch black inside — that was utter darkness, an absolute abyss.

Entering it meant true solitude.

Lu Zheng, however, did not hesitate in the slightest. He activated the skill, Fusing Darkness!

In an instant, he sensed the location of the so-called artifact's origin source.

The goal of this assessment was to make the participant experience true darkness, but they never expected that Lu Zheng possessed a skill like Fusing Darkness.

Even if he hadn't obtained it from the Dark Mask before, he would have now acquired it directly from the Death God King's remnant will.

After Fusing Darkness, darkness itself became absolute perception.

He discovered the artifact's origin source in one go.

Arriving beside the origin source, he activated the effect of True Body of the Death God; his Death Affinity, which had already reached 160%, allowed Lu Zheng to easily gain the artifact origin source's recognition.

The next step was to condense his own divine artifact according to his own will.

With a thought, the surrounding power of death and dark power converged.

Immediately after, the artifact's source underwent a huge change.

Originally it was just a mass of black light; the black light faded and turned into a pitch-black stick.

Yes, it's merely a stick.

【Equipment: Death Heaven Pillar (Unique Bound)】

【Quality: Transcendent (Growing)】

【Skill: World-Annihilating Stick】

【Durability: Eternal】

【Skill: World-Annihilating Stick】

【Effect: Impacts the source with death rules, a full-power strike, to destroy the world】

This stick is very strong, but for now it has just condensed and is still growing.

It needs to continue absorbing enough power of death before it can truly transform and become a terrifying weapon capable of annihilating the world in a single strike.

As for why one would create a stick,

Probably because I fused with the changes of four monkeys?

I just feel I need a stick! 【Ding! You have completed the Death God King's divinity inheritance trial seventh assessment content: the call of the artifact】

【Congratulations on obtaining the reward: Death Affinity +20%; Divine Skill: Blade of Death】

【Current Death Affinity: 180%】

Seven down.

There are nine assessments in total; only need to complete two more assessments, and then I can fulfill condition two.

Once I condense the godhead, I can complete the Job Change Quest.

These first seven assessments, for Lu Zheng, are basically pressure-free.

But when seeing the content of the eighth assessment, Lu Zheng's face showed an expression of astonishment.

Thanks for your support! (End of chapter)
