Chapter 525: Combat Power Increased, Weapon Awakening Permission Unlocked

It was said that the Light Time and Illusion Time realms fell because the former Alliance Leader failed to adequately protect the Time Gate, allowing the Demon Realm to exploit the opening.

The Golden Time Realm learned from this bitter lesson and implemented a strict, ironclad policy to guard the Time Gate.

No wonder Lin Yu felt no demonic creatures around—only numerous strong cultivators stationed, checking whether entrants and exits carried anything suspicious.

After multiple layers of inspection, Lin Yu and the others headed toward the Xia family apartment, everyone's nerves taut.

Wang Da Dong pulled out the Dragon-Engraved Fry Pan, Xiu revealed the Divine Wind Pick, and Lin Yu gripped his own weapon tightly.

Suddenly, Lin Yu was stunned—he saw his weapon undergo a radical transformation.

The weapon "723," once glowing entirely silver, had turned red, now appearing warm and subdued, its sharpness completely vanished.

Lin Yu felt this still wasn't his weapon's final form—it still had room to improve. He had previously thought it merely a razor-sharp blade, but now realized it still had unrefined potential.

Holding the system-awarded weapon, Lin Yu no longer felt the former bone-chilling cold and dread; instead, a steady warmth surged through him, as comforting as spring sunlight.

This power surged within him, repeatedly striking against the limits of his strength.

His combat power value rocketed from 90,000 to 110,000.

Such a sudden leap surprised even himself—he had expected it would take time to break through, yet this weapon in his hand had become his breakthrough catalyst.

At this moment, he pulled up his overall data.

Only after seeing his stats change did Lin Yu realize it was his unlocking of the Weapon Permission that caused his combat power to rise by 10,000.

Those around him, sensing Lin Yu's combat power surge, all exclaimed in awe.

Wang Da Dong chuckled and said, "Yu Ge, congratulations on climbing another step in combat power—looks like I'll have to push harder to catch up. But I, Wang Da Dong, won't give up easily; one day I'll surpass you."

Lin Yu merely smiled and said nothing more. The group was about to leave the safe zone when a tall, slender figure appeared ahead—distantly, the graceful silhouette clearly belonged to a woman.

As they drew closer, Xiu recognized the person and exclaimed in shock: "A Xiang, didn't I tell you not to come out? This place is too dangerous."

But the woman showed no sign of recognizing Xiu and gave no reply.

Then Wang Da Dong's voice rang out, filled with shock: "Lei Ting, why are you here? Do you know how dangerous this place is? One misstep and you'll lose your life."

Wang Da Dong's eyes were filled with deep concern for Lei Ting.
