Chapter 1255: Birth of an Epic Hero
"The second way is to clear each level. Does that an clearing from the 1st Stage to the 299th Stage? That would waste too much ti!" Heavenly Dao frowned and said.
Huang Yi shook his head and said, "If it’s one person, it would certainly take a lot of ti. But if it’s at team, it’s much easier. The team can be divided into 299 squads, each tackling from the 1st Stage to the 299th Stage. That also counts as eting the conditions."
The Poet nodded in agreent, "Yes! The information on the Sheepskin Scroll only ntions clearing each stage, without specifying a world record, so there’s no level restriction. Players over two hundred level can also clear the 1st Stage very quickly."
"There’s no ti to lose, let’s go for it!" Huang Yi said, imdiately forming a team and adding everyone to it.
Afterward, he sent a ssage to the Dungeon Group Leader of the Hero Guild, Knight, asking him to arrange people to join in this task right away.
Huang Yi glanced around at everyone and said, "Let others take care of stages up to 290. Everyone has so understanding of stages from 291 to 299, which are different from the previous ones. Each stage presents a different setting, akin to a labyrinth, escape rooms, or trap avoidance scenarios, with minimal combat required. The difficulty is actually lower than the 290th Stage. Let’s each pick a stage to clear!"
"I’ll choose the 299th Stage!" Thunder God said.
"I pick the 294th Stage!"
"I’ll go for the 291st Stage first!"
...
Soon, everyone made their choices and teleported to the corresponding stages, starting their challenges.
Huang Yi arrived at the 297th Stage.
He had previously teleported to this stage to familiarize himself. This stage is an indoor maze, with a closed ceiling that prevents flying over the maze, requiring entry and passage through it.
The maze is filled with countless paths and branches, and only players with corresponding special abilities can quickly navigate through it.
Huang Yi doesn’t possess such abilities, so he opted for the most stable thod—always following one wall, moving along the sa side, and choosing either always left or always right at intersections.
Any maze can be navigated using this thod, but it requires a lot of traveling distance. Fortunately, Huang Yi is swift, so no matter how long the distance, it doesn’t take much ti.
Huang Yi imdiately flapped the Wings of Freedom and dashed through the maze entrance, keeping his left hand on the left wall, never leaving the wall, becoming a blur as he quickly navigated through the maze.
Soon, Huang Yi encountered the first crossroads, maintaining the position of his left hand on the left wall, he turned to the left. From then on, whenever faced with an intersection, he continued to turn left. If it was a dead end, he retraced his steps and chose the left path again.
In this manner, after half an hour, Huang Yi successfully exited the maze.
At the maze’s exit, there was a platform with a fingernail-sized black crystal on it, shimring with brilliance.
Huang Yi picked up the black crystal and examined it—
[Key Fragnt of the 297th Stage] (Special Item)
Gather all key fragnts from the 1st Stage to the 299th Stage of the Tower of Pantheons, and they can be fused into a Purgatory Key to unlock the gate to the 300th Stage.
Indeed, the second way to reach the 300th Stage is to clear every stage before the 300th, collect 299 key fragnts, and fuse them into a key.
Huang Yi imdiately teleported out, returning to the Omnipotent Teleportation Formation in the Holy Land.
At this mont, Knight was waiting outside. Upon seeing Huang Yi return, he imdiately handed over a large handful of black crystals and said, "These are the 163 key fragnts already obtained. Over a hundred more stages are still being tackled!"
...
Elsewhere, in the Demon Race Microcosm, inside a dark cathedral.
Ling was wearing cult robes, donning a crown, and sitting on a throne made of bones.
The cathedral’s black curtains suddenly fluttered with a gust of eerie wind as a group of won in black, floor-length dresses slowly walked in, moving without any noticeable rise and fall, like a group of drifting phantoms.
This group of won held various instrunts with grotesque forms, one of them placing a bone flute against her lips, gently playing it, producing a sharp sound.
The other won lodiously played their respective instrunts, composing a hymn-like music with dark and somber tones, reminiscent of ghostly wails.
Amidst this eerie heavenly music, a clear sound of footsteps approached from afar.
A skeleton wearing a black priest’s robe walked in from the cathedral’s entrance, carefully holding a blue orb in his hand, he approached Ling’s seat and offered the blue orb, speaking in a husky voice, "Respected Spirit Demon Leader, this is the faith-filled soul collected by our sect’s missionary in the Alufa World."
"Very well!" Ling nodded, reaching out to accept the blue orb.
Ling held the blue orb up to his eyes for a mont of appreciation, then suddenly clawed his fingers and crushed the orb with force!
"Boom!" The orb shattered, scattering countless blue dots of light into the air, turning the entire cathedral into an eerie shade of blue.
These blue light dots sward towards Ling, rging into his body!
The aura emanating from Ling grew stronger, oppressively stifling the skeleton priest on the ground, causing even the music to fall out of tune.
After a while, all the blue light dots had fully entered Ling’s soul body. Ling couldn’t help standing up, placing his hands in front, grasping the air as if sensing so surging power within himself.
At this mont, his aura had completely transford, like a mortal suddenly wielding the power of a deity.
In the next mont, across the Demon Race Microcosm and throughout The Second World, a solemn announcent echoed—
"[System Announcent]: [Spirit Demon] has accumulated ten billion Power of Faith, fulfilling the conditions for Bestowal of Spirit, thus granted the Spirit of [Revenge], ascending to Epic Hero, and becoming the first Heaven Sent Epic Hero. Awarded 1000 points of Public Prestige, received [Unique Achievent]—[Epic Hero], South Africa National Honor Points 1."
Finally, the first Epic Hero player in the world was born!
Countless players in The Second World, amidst the darkness of the World-Ending Formation, heard this system announcent.
The world, already in despair, fell deeper into hopelessness!
The Demon Clan had already seen the ergence of the first Divine Domain player, Heavenly Demon, and now the first Epic Hero, Spirit Demon, overshadowing The Second World utterly.
In contrast, Huang Yi, Thunder God, Pharaoh, and other Super First-Class masters all seed sowhat dimd.
