315 The Strongest in The New World!
[You killed Ice Spirit (level 95, leader), exp +101] (shared)
[You have obtained the 10-star Skill [World of Extreme Frost]!]
[You have obtained the 9-star Skill [Instant Ice]!]
[You have obtained the 9-star Skill [Life Record]!]
“It’s finally dead,”
Ling Yi slowly landed on the icy ground. He let out a long sigh as he looked at the snowflakes dancing in the air.
‘If the countries were willing to take the risk and use the same tactics they used to deal with the Nest God to fight the Ice Spirit, this checkpoint might have been cleared a long time ago…’
However, Ling Yi knew that he couldn’t blame them.
‘Their divine artifacts had a limited number of uses. If they were to use them here, they would be at a loss if a threat like the Nest God appeared in the main world.’
Compared to clearing God’s Path, the safety of the main world was more important.
‘Come to think of it, if the Ice Spirit from the 16th checkpoint is already level 95, then what level would the boss have at the 17th checkpoint?’
He touched his chin and cast his gaze in the direction of the next area.
At the same time, Luo Yuan laughed beside him, “Hahaha! Humans have taken another big step forward on the path to Godhood!”
“Yeah, I’ve been stuck at the 16th for two and a half years.” Nangong Han sighed.
Not far away, Lin Meng and Yun Huiguang also came over.
“In the past, more than a dozen unrivaled players worldwide joined forces with hundreds of powerhouses and still couldn’t defeat it. I didn’t expect for us to clear it in one day.”
Yun Huiguang stroked his beard and looked at Ling Yi with a contemplative expression. “Although he’s still several levels under us, he’s actually the strongest in the world, isn’t he?” He suddenly claimed.
Luo Yuan and Nangong Han looked at each other in shock.
“Actually,” Luo Yuan began, “When we were in the great dungeon this afternoon, we already felt that he had the strength to be in the top three in the world—”
“No,” Meng Lin shook his head and interrupted Luo Yuan, “I think you may have overestimated the strength of other unrivaled players. Because I can tell you that Ling Yi is the real strongest player in the world. He’s in a league on his own,”
‘Huh?!’
Luo Yuan and Nangong Han weren’t the only ones who were surprised. Ling Yi’s eyes were wide open as well. He wanted to see what the others would say.
Meng Lin glanced at the other people who had gathered around him and sighed helplessly. “Last month, all the powerhouses in the world joined forces to fight against the Ice Spirit. At that time, all of them were defeated, including the top ten powerhouses in the world.” He said.
“This time, we won, but it was mostly thanks to Ling Yi’s effort.”
“This is Ling Yi’s victory!”
It was very difficult for experts like them, who had reached the peak, to make any obvious improvements in a month’s time.
That was why Meng Lin dared to make such a claim.
Hearing this, all of them fell into deep thought.
Ling Yi wasn’t too bothered by it. He turned his gaze towards the 17th checkpoint.
Yun Huiguang was the first to notice his line of sight. He couldn’t help but ask in surprise, “Little brother Ling Yi, don’t tell me you want to go through the 17th checkpoint now?”
“Ah? No, no, no.”
Ling Yi shook his head and smiled, “I’m just curious about the boss’s level at the checkpoint. According to the usual pattern, the next boss is 5 levels higher than the previous one. If that’s the case, the next boss would be level 100.”
“As for the specifics, can’t we just go and take a look?” Luo Yuan said.
“That makes sense… However, we have to decide in advance whether we want to fight it or not.” Nangong Han said.
They looked at Ling Yi.
The latter shook his head. “I’m done for today. High-intensity battles are a little exhausting. Moreover, it’s almost midnight. The new round of camp missions will be out soon.”
Most of them heaved a sigh of relief, and their faces revealed relaxed smiles.
“That’s a wise decision. I’m indeed a little tired.”
“Yeah, I think we should collect information on the 17th checkpoint’s boss first. It’ll be better if we come up with a strategy before heading straight into battle.”
“There are so many foreign powerhouses here, and we’re not familiar with any of them. I’m afraid we’ll be in a mess when we fight later. It’s really not appropriate.”
Meng Lin informed all the forces about the retreat, and then they flew to the 17th checkpoint together. They wanted to see what it was like there and what level their boss was.
…
The moon hung high in the sky, and the stars filled the night sky.
The moment they reached home.
Ling Yi immediately summoned the Ice Queen excitedly. “Your summoned beast, the Ice Spirit, has great potential! I can’t believe it’ll become so strong in the future!”
In order not to make the others’ worldview collapse, he had specifically instructed the Ice Queen not to summon the Ice Spirit during the battle.
Before the battle, he had not expected the Ice Spirit to be so powerful.
Usually, when the Ice Queen summoned the Ice Spirit to participate in the battle, its performance was only average…
The Ice Queen, who understood her master’s thoughts, replied calmly, “That’s because our previous opponents were all Beast Kings, so our performance was very weak.”
“However, the ultimate boss’s buff is also a part of it.”
“Sh*t… You’re right.”
Ling Yi sighed. He felt that it was a pity that his Ice Queen’s Ice Spirit couldn’t reach that level.
“Not necessarily.”
“Master, ” the Ice Queen suddenly said. “If you have any treasure that can increase the strength of your summoned beast, I might be able to increase the strength of my Ice Spirit.”
“Alright, I’ll find one for you when I have time.” Ling Yi agreed.
He turned his head and saw Yunji eating melon seeds and watching an argument with the Insight Crystal Ball. He couldn’t help but smile, “Didn’t you want to punish evil and promote good? Why are you eating watermelons?”
Yunji turned her head and looked at him. Her golden eyes curved into crescents on the only half of her face that was exposed. She chuckled, “I’ve been doing that all this while, but watching people argue is also a great pleasure.”
Xiao Ya returned from the bathroom and naturally sat on the bench next to Yunji.
“When did you two become so close?” Ling Yi was stunned.
Xiao Ya turned around and rolled her eyes at him. “Sister Rou, Wanqing, and Ling ‘Er will be in one group, and I will be in the same group as sister Yun. Don’t you like this arrangement?”
Ling Yi was speechless. “Where are they?”
“They’re soaking in the spring water upstairs.”
“Oh.”
Since he was alone, Ling Yi was happy to be free.
He first looked at the three Skills he had obtained from killing the Ice Spirit.
[World of Extreme Frost: Large-scale control]
[Instant Ice: Temporarily nullifies damage, but the price is that you can’t move.]
“These three Skills don’t have a synthetic route. [World of Extreme Frost] is not as good as [Slowing Divine Power], and [Instant Ice] is not as good as [Invincibility Shield]. Only [Life Record] might be of some use to me.”
He planned to show [World of Extreme Frost] and [Instant Ice] to Yunji and the others later, and whoever wanted them could have them.
As for [Life Record]…
“Sh*t… My [Triple Seal] can prevent any way of HP recovery, yet this Skill is still effective. This means that its main essence isn’t HP recovery. It was more like… Time reversal?”
If he could learn, his survival Skills would definitely continue to improve.
However, Ling Yi felt that it wasn’t worth using 9-star slots in exchange for continuously increasing his survival ability.
“Mm… Forget it. I’ll give it to someone else first. When I need it in the future, I’ll use Star Transforming Stone to get someone else to take it down, and then I’ll simulate the mutation.”
After hesitating for a while, Ling Yi finally made his decision.
After putting the three Skills to the back of his mind, he remembered the reward from the World Announcement in the afternoon.
[Great World Lottery Ticket X1, Prayer Ticket X2.]
He had already obtained the wish ticket many times, and it could no longer mutate. He would pick it up again when he needed it in the future.
He only took out the lottery ticket.
[Great World Lottery Ticket]: After using it, one can get a treasure, weapon, item, or true soul, with the highest quality being S.
