Finally, Ye Yun chose to upgrade, but he first strengthened a law fragment into a dao fruit with Golden Touch, so as not to betray Hei Yi's efforts in the Outer Heaven.
Although killing the Sui Beasts here reduced the Golden Touch cooldown by tens of seconds, this was negligible compared to the terrifying cooldown and incomparable to what Hei Yi brought.
From the data feedback Hei Yi provided from the Outer Heaven, Ye Yun also understood that his in-game strength was around that of a Level Four Deity in the Outer Heaven. His real-world strength would only be stronger, and once he ascended, his combat power would not be lower than a Level Five Deity.
Putting the dao fruit into his inventory, Ye Yun was not in a hurry to manifest it or refine it. His primary goal was to raise his level to one hundred. Only then could his talent increase again and his strength surge once more!
After flying for another hour, Ye Yun was already nearly a hundred thousand kilometers away from his starting point.
"This is it!" he exclaimed, looking at the Sui Beasts converging below because of the Golden Crow, while flying Sui Beasts in the distance were also rushing towards him.
As Ye Yun got closer to the third region, his observations along the way gave him a general understanding of these Sui Beasts.
These Sui Beasts were merely a collective term for the original monsters of the Longevity Mountain Range. They had bizarre appearances, encompassing almost all the creatures Ye Yun had ever known. Not only were there beast forms, but there were also many communities with human-like appearances.
The vast majority of Sui Beasts were land-based, with flying ones being less than one in a thousand. However, despite their small numbers, their combat power was generally high, making them extremely troublesome opponents for Yue Xia and the others.
This time, Ye Yun did not release the Golden Dragon. He intended to handle it himself and finish quickly, as this would be more efficient.
Fire Refining the World!
Purple Lightning!
Imperial Sword Art!
Boom…
Boundless flames erupted from the ground, instantly engulfing all the Sui Beasts.
Whoosh…
The King's Sword slashed across the sky. Wherever Ye Yun's gaze fell, all the flying Sui Beasts plummeted like rain.
Ye Yun's skills had undergone several transformations, and his attack amplification far surpassed what it was before. For the ground-based Sui Beasts, Ye Yun didn't even need to look. With a single skill, the ground-based Sui Beasts within a fifty-kilometer radius were almost instantly annihilated.
The Imperial Sword Art, like Fire Refining the World, was not limited by number, time, or distance. As long as one had enough true qi, traveling a thousand or ten thousand li, or even a million li, was not a problem.
The Golden Crow spread its wings and surged with energy again, as if tireless, carrying Ye Yun towards the third region once more. It was only after flying a full fifty kilometers that the system prompt finally arrived.
"System Prompt: Congratulations to player for killing 385,800 Level Two Sui Beasts and 37,500 Level Three Sui Beasts. You have gained 57.33 trillion experience points, 57.33 million spirit stones, and 420 Sui Geng."
What the heck!
So much experience only increased my level by 15%?
Ye Yun looked at his increased experience percentage and became exceptionally excited.
If he worked a little harder, he could level up once a day here! And this was only in the second region. What about the third or fourth region?
Ye Yun couldn't imagine. He had previously massacred gods in the Divine Realm! However, the experience gained from killing gods seemed less than that from killing Level Two and Three Sui Beasts.
At this moment, Ye Yun felt his mount's flying speed was incredibly slow for the first time. In five hours of flight, he had only used two skills, taking less than ten seconds, and then another five hours of travel.
After repeating this cycle four times, the Golden Crow had carried Ye Yun for nearly four hundred thousand kilometers. After twenty hours of flight, Ye Yun finally heard the information he wanted to hear.
"System Prompt: Congratulations to player for killing 5,800 Level Two Sui Beasts and 428,600 Level Three Sui Beasts. You have gained 214.88 trillion experience points, 214.88 million spirit stones, and 433 Sui Geng."
"Damn it, this second domain is so vast! It was good that I could occasionally tease Yue Xia and Guangtou Lao along the way, otherwise I would have gone crazy from boredom."
Based on the system prompts, Ye Yun realized he had entered the edge of the third domain. If he referenced Yue Xia's earlier words, the cross-section of this second region reached a terrifying fifty thousand kilometers!
What about the third region? At least a million?
Ye Yun was speechless.
The time spent leveling up was almost entirely wasted on travel!
Experience points at 90%! That last burst gave Ye Yun 55% experience! These Level Three Sui Beasts were truly potent, with each one granting five hundred billion experience!
"Comrade Golden Crow, let's keep up the good work and aim to raise our level again today!"
Ye Yun patted the Golden Crow's back, his face full of excitement, unaware that he had now become infamous throughout the entire Longevity Mountain Range. The nickname 'Jie Ming' had once again entered certain individuals' sights.
"Captain! Something's happened!"
In a jungle, a team of a hundred people lay quietly in the grass, their eyes fixed ahead where more than two thousand Sui Beasts were frolicking in their territory.
At this moment, a team member among the hundred suddenly called out softly.
"What is it? Has the Great Emperor finished his seclusion and logged in?" the one-eyed giant at the front of the team rumbled. Although he had tried to keep his voice low, it sounded different to everyone else.
"The leaderboard has changed drastically. Someone named Jie Ming has suddenly surged to second place in points. He's now only over two million points behind our Great Emperor."
"What did you say? Jie Ming? This guy managed to get here without us knowing?" The one-eyed giant was greatly shocked upon hearing his subordinate's words, then quickly opened the Longevity Mountain Range's points leaderboard.
"Second place, 64.1 million points!! Jie Ming, it really is him!!"
Only the top ten on this leaderboard were publicly displayed. Although the significance of this ranking was unknown, since it existed, it must have a reason for being.
The one-eyed giant quickly opened a faction communication group. All the members in this group were captains of the Futian Empire within the Longevity Mountain Range, numbering over three hundred. The group had already exploded, with everyone fiercely debating around the name 'Jie Ming.'
"Didn't this guy dominate and crush everything in the New Mortal Continent the day before yesterday? How did he suddenly end up in our territory?"
"How would I know? Our informants there don't even qualify as outer personnel!"
"Damn it, he was in the New Mortal Continent the day before yesterday, and today his points here are almost catching up to the Great Emperor? This seems too fantastical."
"Given that guy's massive attack range in the New Mortal Continent, won't it be just as terrifying here?"
"This Ten Directions Great Emperor is quite formidable, brothers. Have we made the wrong choice?"
Over three hundred captains meant at least thirty thousand people in the Longevity Mountain Range. Judging by their tone of conversation, they undoubtedly viewed the Longevity Mountain Range as their private domain.
"All of you, shut up! The Great Emperor is still in seclusion. We must come up with a solution, otherwise, with that devil's abilities, we'll be in trouble when the Great Emperor emerges!"
When the commander of a hundred-man regiment spoke, all the captains in the group instantly fell silent.
