“New King’s Task!”
Ye Tian’s eyes sparkled with interest as he gazed at this New King’s Task.
This task for the so-called New King wasn’t actually fraught with any danger. Instead, it was a support program for the most recent batch of newcomers by the Supreme Hall of Humanity, also known as the first decade support project.
Recently, 103 Princes had joined the yellow-grade area of the Supreme Hall of Humanity. Naturally, the Hall aimed to cultivate these Princes. Otherwise, how would they face the grand era a hundred years later? It wouldn’t do to treat these Princes as mere cannon fodder. Thus, the Supreme Hall of Humanity introduced the support plan.
Among these, the New King’s Task was the first support project.
It was straightforward.
As long as one accepted the New King’s Task, they could enter a phantom world where all Princes who had accepted the task could battle it out. The last Prince standing would be crowned the New King of this generation of the Children of the Universe.
In addition to numerous rewards for the New King, other Princes who eliminated a Prince would also receive rewards. The more Princes one eliminated, the greater the rewards.
The rewards for the New King’s Task were clearly defined, including heavenly dao characters.
However, there were still eight years until the New King’s Task would begin.
It was precisely because there was a significant amount of time left that Ziya hadn’t informed Ye Tian earlier.
In any case, all the newly ascended Princes would be notified.
“Let’s accept this task first!”
Ye Tian had Ziya help him accept the New King’s Task.
As for becoming the New King, he was determined to succeed.
With eight years until the New King’s Task, Ye Tian naturally wouldn’t idle away his time. Although he was making progress, so were others.
He couldn’t guarantee that his strength would absolutely overpower other Children of the Universe. He aimed to elevate his strength to the peak of the second tier of the Children of the Universe within this decade, ensuring his victory as the New King.
However, the gap between the third and second tiers of the peak-level Children of the Universe was vast. The further one progressed, the more pronounced the difference between each tier became.
But there was still hope.
“With my Saber Dao, as long as I make significant progress and if I can enhance the Chaos Body Refining Technique to the first major completion level, I might have a chance to step into the peak of the second-tier Children of the Universe!”
Ye Tian mused to himself.
The rules of the Realm of Oblivion were quite special. Beings above the god level couldn’t enter it, or they would be suppressed by the world force of the entire Realm of Oblivion.
Therefore, both humans and the ghost race only sent emperor-level beings into the Realm of Oblivion, including numerous Heavenly Prides and even Children of the Universe.
This time, to compete for Netherworld Stones and as an opportunity to refine the Children of the Universe, this task was issued.
Originally, Ye Tian was somewhat interested in this task. After thoroughly understanding the Realm of Oblivion, he became even more eager.
This was because the Realm of Oblivion was filled with the aura of the undead, even more terrifying than the God’s Grave World he had encountered before.
Emperor-level beings, Heavenly Prides, and Children of the Universe entering the Realm of Oblivion had to wear a jade amulet to negate the erosion of the undead aura, or else they couldn’t stay in the Realm of Oblivion for long, not even the Children of the Universe.
The undead aura in the Realm of Oblivion could even erode the bodies of the Children of the Universe, making it a deadly place. However, due to the presence of Netherworld Stones, it also became a treasure land.
Compared to humans, the ghost race’s bodies were slightly more resistant to the undead aura, but they still required special equipment to safely navigate the Realm of Oblivion.
In any case, if one were to battle in the Realm of Oblivion, they must protect their jade amulet. If it shattered and they failed to equip a new one in time, they would undoubtedly give their enemies an opportunity to land a crippling blow, leading to their demise.
What excited Ye Tian was that the Realm of Oblivion was undoubtedly the best place to refine the second layer of the Art of Immortality.
The Art of Immortality was one of the most heaven-defying secret techniques Ye Tian had ever encountered. He had not come across such techniques even in the inheritance treasure halls of the yellow-grade area in the Supreme Hall of Humanity.
Of course, the higher-ups of humanity might know about it but would not spread such techniques. Otherwise, with everyone tempted by it, countless Children of the Universe would die trying to master it.
Ye Tian possessed top-tier necrotic talents and multiple recovery-type talents, allowing him to cultivate the Art of Immortality. Others attempting to forcibly cultivate it would undoubtedly die.
“Now that I am a Child of the Universe, my physical body is countless times stronger than before. Moreover, I have cultivated the Chaos Body Refining Technique, which seems to be able to refine various kinds of exotic energies, as all things return to chaos.
Even if I can’t withstand the refinement of the Art of Immortality, I can use the Chaos Body Refining Technique to hold on.”
Ye Tian felt hopeful about mastering the second layer of the Art of Immortality.
The key point was that the second layer of the Art of Immortality was too tempting, offering an increase of 100,000 years in lifespan. Furthermore, each breakthrough in realm would add another 100,000 years to one’s lifespan.
Many Princes in the Supreme Hall of Humanity had ways to increase their lifespan, but even then, it was unlikely they could achieve a 100,000-year increase at the emperor level.
“I often use time talents. If my time talents reach the mystic level in the future, and I continuously use time acceleration, the speed of lifespan consumption would be too fast! With over 100,000 years of lifespan, I wouldn’t have to worry at all!”
This was what Ye Tian thought.
For the Art of Immortality and the high-tier Saber Dao origin refining realm, Ye Tian didn’t hesitate to accept the task of collecting Netherworld Stones in the Realm of Oblivion.
