Volume 1, Chapter 40: A Level Twenty-Three Mage, The Entire Assembly Stunned!

At the very last moment of the five-hour limit, Lin Yi broke into the eleventh level!

Immediately, eyes widened in shock, and people sprang from their seats, almost uncontrollably!

A level twenty-three mage?!

The mere sight of these words left everyone unable to believe their eyes. They almost thought they had misread it!

He had actually surpassed Han Feng, and by a full two levels at that! He was undoubtedly a dark horse!

"Damn, who exactly is this Lin Yi? He’s reached level twenty-three!"

"This is too ridiculous. I’m only a measly level three!"

"I know this guy. I heard he had a mishap during his awakening and was just an ordinary mage. I never expected him to make such a comeback!"

"Hiss! An ordinary mage! He..."

While defending Jinan, Shang Yi had heard from Sun Heding that Muling Pass had already begun casting cannons. Therefore, after settling other matters, he immediately had Sun Heding take him to see it.

The Gold-Devouring Divine Moth would not willingly enter the space-time rift. To get it into the Fourth Heaven, Wang Xian had another clever method: he threw out pieces of immortal bone, lining them up from the Fourth Heaven all the way to the exterior of the space-time rift.

This terrified many nations. Several Western powers located near the Holy See hurriedly informed the Holy See of the location of the Main God Game, hoping to appease their inexplicable rage.

"Today, Jinghua City, Lin Xiang, S-rank assassin," Zhao Xiangguo looked left and right before quickly typing out these words.

He hailed from a prestigious lineage, the only direct disciple of Ba Jitian, the master of two generations past and once the greatest expert in the martial world. Like his master, he had remained undefeated since his debut, and the number of established seniors and rising stars who had fallen at his hands was countless.

Li Dong’s eyes shimmered with spiritual light. He stood up and made a deep bow to Bai Tianfan, changing his form of address to "Fellow Daoist," a more formal title.

It turned out that the Merchant Army had concentrated all their medium and large-caliber artillery on the coastal positions, launching an attack before the Spanish warships could even open fire.

Matt Sokol nodded and said, "Lieutenant General, I can guarantee this." Just then, an official hurried in from outside the municipal hall and handed a note to Matt Sokol.

"What a pity! This imperial coffin was refined by the Divine Emperor. The immortal essence already bears the Divine Emperor’s will and cannot be refined again; otherwise, it could have been forged into an imperial coffin," Pharaoh Jinding sighed incessantly after scanning the dilapidated coffin with his imperial consciousness.

Around the vacuum battlefield, rolling streams of fire collided violently. Three thousand stars converged like a tidal eruption, a surging tsunami, and a destructive force instantly swallowed the vacuum battlefield.

Wu Hai stuttered a response. In the world as he knew Li Daniu, he never imagined that Li Daniu could also have moments of melancholy.

With the Empress’s return, he had thought he could be with her, and he could not help but feel a sense of regret; after all, what fun was there in the time spent together in the cold palace compared to the life of an ordinary couple?

In a thousandth of a blink of an eye, the Sect Master of the Water Gate snatched the lead, reaching out to grab Qin Yu’s Dao Fruit before Jiang Yi could react.

The topic between the two was nothing more than discussing how to marry her off to the Shegui Khan, who was old enough to be her father.

Seeing Zhang Zhongjian’s burly frame and unusual appearance—especially his double pupils—the man was startled. Moreover, these men were all rugged and strong, exuding a murderous aura; it was clear they had killed before.

According to Lirad, their deal was based on the destruction of the Abernathy family. Fiona would tamper with the medication upon which the Abernathys relied, and then, working from the inside while Lirad attacked from the outside, they intended to annihilate the family in one fell swoop.

"Reward my foot. I have to go clean up your mess!" Yao Jiaxuan said, torn between laughter and tears.

Li Gexiao was not stupid. He knew the Heavenly Star God Meteor had a strong repulsive force. If he didn't protect himself and touched it with his bare flesh, he would certainly suffer a backlash.

Luo Li screamed in terror. Ying Ming spiraled upward, signaling the warriors below. He steadied his flight to ensure Luo Li’s safety, screeching to organize the Flying Feather tribe for an aerial assault.

Liu Shuang’s killing intent coalesced into something almost tangible. Before he could strike, Xiyue, who was in charge of protecting Chen Kexin, had already moved. With a flick of her right wrist, she reached Liangzi’s side in the blink of an eye.

"What exactly do you want!" The demon beast looked at Fan Yu with great wariness at this moment.

Luo Li sat on Ying Ming’s back and flew from high altitude toward the depths of the forest. She looked down intently, but there was nothing special about the jungle below. She felt that Ying Ming had been flying straight ahead without turning or doubling back, yet a moment later, she saw the figures of everyone craning their necks in anticipation.

Luo Li was a bit anxious. She had witnessed Yu Zhuang’s fiery transformation of love and had suffered all the way to the Zhonghua Department with the main group; how could a piece of his tail have fallen off?

All the cultivators were even more dejected as they watched the Thorn Colt Wolf King standing amidst the pack of Thorn Colt Wolves.

"Speak, why have you come to the capital!" Ruan Qi had just raised his fist when he suddenly felt his wrist caught by someone, unable to move it even an inch no matter how hard he tried.

Mu Jinghong gave Ling Jiantong no definitive answer and plunged alone into the melee.

Just as Li Hexian had anticipated, once they entered the Taixuan Copper Gate, the path was smooth, and there was no more danger.

Zhou Mengyun roughly recounted the process of searching for Ouyang Mei to Chen Xingran yesterday. After hearing it—especially that Ouyang Mei had accepted over two million in gifts from Zhou Mengyun and still made her clean a toilet—Chen Xingran felt a surge of anger.

All barracks and encampments must maintain good relations with the civilians. Do not take a single thing from them. If you stay in their homes, you must pay the equivalent in silver dollars; violations will be dealt with according to military law. Post sentries, both open and hidden, at all barracks. Get to sleep early. The password for tonight is "Reclaim the Motherland."

Qian Shu’s body trembled. With the two countries at war, Ye Li had just told him she was a princess of Yuehun. If these words reached Mu Yunfan’s ears, Ye Li would likely lose her life.

Director Wu’s life had been difficult lately. He clearly felt the pressure from above, with people picking faults in his work. He suspected Liu Taihe had begun to move, and he felt his position might not be secure for much longer.

Yu Zhi pulled up a chair and sat by the door, observing Uncle Fu while waiting for him to speak.

Chang Kuan continuously presented his credentials along the way. The deeper they went, the stricter the security became, eventually requiring fingerprint and iris scans. To actually meet his old superior, one had to pass through a series of inspections.
