"You have been afflicted with the exclusive curse-type divine ability 'San Qing Fen Shen' (Three Purity Incarnations) releasing life force. You will be teleported to the Land of Curses."
"Within this map, you will suffer the negative effects of being unable to use movement, blink, shuttle, or teleportation spells and divine abilities for 365 days. The automatic recovery effects of immortal power, primordial purple qi, and heavenly dao power will be reduced by 99%."
"You can only leave this map by killing the mythical-level Great Dao Saint Hongjun's avatar (Controller of Heavenly Dao). During this period, you will be unable to log out."
Lin Feng suddenly understood.
No wonder he had been inexplicably teleported to this godforsaken place after killing the opponent.
It turned out that this San Qing Fen Shen had gone mad and was willing to sacrifice its life to harm him.
The current outcome was exactly as the other party wished.
Being trapped here for a full 365 days.
When the curse automatically lifted after a year and Lin Feng left.
Let alone his strength not improving and falling behind others.
It was possible that the entire Huaxia, and even Water Blue Star, would be conquered by invaders from other realms.
Previously.
Lin Feng had naively believed.
That as long as his strength reached the level of instantly killing the great Luo golden immortals from the previous life's alien realms, he could save the world.
Now, as he gradually understood more realms and more powerful enemies.
He realized.
The great Luo golden immortal from his previous life was not even worth mentioning.
Let alone Lin Feng.
Any single member of his current team could instantly kill them.
But in this life, he had to face enemies far from the weak ones of his previous life.
Let alone great Luo golden immortals.
Even quasi-saints, saints.
And even heavenly dao saints, Great Dao saints.
And possibly even stronger beings.
The calamity that Water Blue Star would face in this life might be even more severe than in the previous one.
Lin Feng took a deep breath.
The revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades must still work hard.
The goal of saving Water Blue Star was a long and arduous one.
After his lament, he began to face the current predicament.
He definitely could not wait for 365 days.
But killing a mythical-level Great Dao Saint was not something that could be accomplished in a day or two.
The last time he killed San Qing Fen Shen, he had already used two limit-level laws.
He would be unable to use them for a month.
Moreover.
Such power had barely been effective against the legendary-level San Qing Fen Shen.
It would likely have little effect on this mythical-level Hongjun avatar.
A cold glint appeared in Lin Feng's eyes.
It seemed.
That the ancient voice that had spoken to him earlier.
And the so-called guardian of this place.
Were likely the same person.
That is, this Hongjun avatar!
Lin Feng also understood the purpose of luring him into becoming a saint.
Naturally, it was to make him subject to the constraints of this world.
Called a saint, but in reality, just a puppet of the Heavenly Dao.
There was no way to resist the invasion of alien realms, let alone achieve his own transcendence.
Since he decided not to become a saint, at least not to become a saint in the game.
To leave here, he needed to face a mythical-level Great Dao Saint.
Lin Feng was not entirely without options.
Although he could not move around in the wild, he still had the creature area of the Tongtian Zaohua Tower.
San Qing Fen Shen's move seemed extremely ruthless.
It cut off Lin Feng's possibility of improvement.
But it never expected that Lin Feng possessed the means to improve without leaving his residence.
When the Hongjun avatar, disguised as a kind old man, came to tempt Lin Feng again.
He found that Lin Feng simply ignored him.
Surprised, he stopped his futile performance.
Instead, he looked coldly at the meditating Lin Feng.
Could he really find a way to get out by just sitting there?
In the end.
He would still have to obediently become a saint and be controlled by me!
...
And just as the Hongjun avatar was thinking this.
Lin Feng had entered a peak period of growth and improvement.
Because he was pleasantly surprised to discover.
After killing San Qing Fen Shen, a new area could be opened within the creature area of the Tongtian Zaohua Tower.
Great Dao Saint level!
Although the initial opening cost was as high as 10 million Heavenly Dao power.
Under the effect of reinforcement and amplification, it was reduced to 2.5 million, which Lin Feng could currently afford.
Moreover.
When Lin Feng entered, he found that this area was not as insurmountable as he had imagined.
The bosses at the front were only of excellent grade.
Their strength was worlds apart from the epic-grade San Qing Fen Shen.
On his very first attempt, he cleared two levels.
Although he fell before the excellent-grade boss of the third level.
He was not entirely without gains.
On one hand, he had ascertained the strength of an excellent-grade Great Dao Saint.
That is, the suppression caused by the priority of the divine ability law domain was troublesome.
In terms of attack and defense power amplified by Heavenly Dao power alone, he was not much inferior.
Moreover.
In terms of magical treasures, he even had a significant advantage.
He felt that once his basic strength improved another notch, he could wear the opponent down.
Clearing the third level was just a matter of time.
On the other hand.
Just by clearing the first two levels, the bosses also had considerable drops.
There was even Great Dao Origin.
Although an excellent-grade Great Dao Saint boss only dropped a mere 50 portions.
Two levels meant 100 portions.
This was equivalent to a reinforced ginseng fruit.
Most importantly.
This allowed Lin Feng to discover another way to accumulate Great Dao Origin.
His magical treasures and divine abilities were not limited to the level of Chaos Spirit Treasures anymore.
Although the consumption of 10,000 portions of Great Dao Anointment was terrifying, he had seen hope.
Moreover.
What made Lin Feng most excited was.
This was only the excellent grade, and it already yielded 50 portions.
What about the next level, the superb grade?
What about the legendary grade like San Qing Fen Shen?
Even.
The extra rewards for clearing all levels...
And.
The even more powerful intermediate and advanced Great Dao Saint Spirit areas!
His mood, which had just been affected by the curse, immediately eased considerably.
It seemed that dealing with a mythical-level Great Dao Saint was not impossible?
And as Lin Feng delved into his research and patiently improved.
In the game.
Great changes had occurred because of him!
As he triggered the process of Pangu recreating the heavens and earth.
The restrictions on players advancing to Quasi-Saint and Saint were lifted.
This was a progress that Lin Feng had not been able to achieve even before his death in his previous life, nor in the game at that time.
And with the lifting of this restriction.
To the surprise of all players.
The first to advance was not the members of the God of War team, who were second only to Yang Jian Qing Ming and in a league of their own in the game.
It was Yamamoto Ichiro from the Sakura Country server.
He became the first quasi-saint in the game and gained immense fame.
All players from Sakura Country became arrogant, repeatedly showing off on the server-wide channels.
And Old John Khan from the Beautiful Country became the second player to advance to quasi-saint.
His combat power was only slightly lower than Yamamoto Ichiro's.
This also made the players from the Beautiful Country feel a surge of pride.
Players from Huaxia Country originally thought that the members of the God of War team had simply not logged in, allowing others to take the lead.
Countless players called for the members of the God of War team to hurry up and advance to overshadow the players from other servers.
However, through inquiries from some high-level guild members, a surprising answer was obtained from Zhan Shen Ba Dao.
"Level and realm do not represent everything, let them be proud for now."
When this statement reached Yamamoto Ichiro and Old John Khan, both of them laughed.
"Realm does not represent everything?"
"Do Huaxia people only talk tough?"
But when someone couldn't help but open the combat power rankings, they were astonished to find.
The combat power of the two players who had first advanced to quasi-saint was far inferior to that of the members of the God of War team.
Moreover.
It wasn't just one or two.
Not only were the combat power values of the well-known players far higher than the two,
Even the newly emerged father and son duo, Qin Zhan and Qin Yongmin, ranked above these two.
As for these two father and son.
When they first appeared, players were amazed, wondering where such mysterious tycoons came from.
When they learned that they were the family of the well-known game tycoon Qin Fen, they understood.
But when Guo Aimin, a player who defected from the Beautiful Country to Huaxia halfway, had a combat power ranking above both quasi-saints.
Things became interesting.
At this time, Yamamoto Ichiro could not swallow his anger.
"What good is it if their combat power is higher than mine? Isn't it just relying on magical treasures provided by Yang Jian Qing Ming?"
"I will make these damn Huaxia people know what a quasi-saint is, and what the majesty of the Eight-Headed Serpent is!"
A plan targeting the team members was being furiously conceived under Yamamoto Ichiro's command.
