By now, Daniel’s forehead was drenched in sweat.
He continued burning Immortal Singularity, yet every step still felt incomparably difficult.
The summit was right ahead.
Five thousand ters... three thousand... two thousand...
He panted heavily as he climbed upward step by step.
He could clearly sense that the rate at which his Immortal Singularity was being consud had suddenly increased severalfold.
At this rate, in just a few more seconds, his Immortal Singularity might be completely exhausted.
"I can’t stop here... the summit is already within reach."
Daniel suddenly ca to a halt.
From his backpack, he took out Replica Crystals and Immortal Singularity Fragnts.
Though only the final two thousand ters remained, he knew that the closer he got to the summit, the more frenzied the consumption of Immortal Singularity would beco.
He did not know how those prodigies of the past had managed to reach the peak. Perhaps each had possessed their own unique talents and divine arts.
But he knew one thing clearly: if he did not replenish his Immortal Singularity right now, he would likely never be able to take those final few steps.
Without hesitation, he synthesized 400,000 points of Immortal Singularity!
"Move!"
Boom—!
The dim light around his body suddenly flared up again, blazing like a torch and illuminating the mist around the summit.
Charge!
In one breath, he rushed toward the peak!
Under the mountain-like pressure, Daniel suddenly broke into a run.
The flas around him were like the only light in a world of darkness—so dazzling, so impossible to look at directly.
One thousand ters... seven hundred... two hundred...
Harris, who had been keeping his eyes fixed on Daniel the whole ti, stopped climbing.
Jonas widened his eyes, staring blankly at that mass of fla drawing infinitely close to the summit.
Halfway up the mountain,
the three supre-grade powerhouses gazed at Daniel’s figure with mixed emotions.
"So the most dazzling prodigy of this generation... has appeared in such a fashion?"
the Shadowkin powerhouse murmured.
"We ca here to hunt him down, yet instead we’ve beco witnesses to his making history,"
the human powerhouse said with a soft laugh.
"This kid is truly different. If he’s allowed to grow, he will beco the nightmare of every powerhouse in the endless worlds!"
"If we get the chance... we still have to kill him completely!"
Kiroli said darkly.
The other two supre-grade powerhouses fell silent.
Kiroli was right.
The endless galaxy had always been a place of brutally tangled interests. Even the three of them had once fought each other to the death.
It was only because their strengths were so close that none of them could kill the others.
And now, they had a common enemy.
...
In Daniel’s vision, the summit was now so clear it seed close enough to touch.
Only forty ters remained!
But at that mont, the burning speed of Immortal Singularity abruptly exploded, becoming a hundred tis faster!
"Just hold on a little longer!"
"The mission will be complete soon!"
"For humanity, I absolutely cannot fall here..."
His eyes were bloodshot, streaked with red veins.
With every step he took, he could feel a massive amount of Immortal Singularity draining away at terrifying speed.
"For humanity, so they may no longer suffer endless calamities!"
Thirty ters left!
"For humanity, so they may have the freedom to roam the endless galaxy!"
Ten ters left!
"For... survival!"
Only one step remained!
Daniel was already standing at the edge of the summit.
Before him was the final step.
Step onto it, and he would reach the top!
He slowly raised his leg...
At that mont—
Boom!
Daniel’s foot ca crashing down onto that final step.
Whoosh!
A dazzling burst of light erupted from his body, enveloping him completely.
In the next instant, he appeared upon a lofty platform wreathed in drifting clouds and mist.
Beneath his feet stretched an endless sea of clouds!
This... was Cloudcrest Peak!
"So this is... what it ans to reach the summit?"
Daniel ca back to himself and looked down.
Through the gaps in the sea of clouds, he could take in the full expanse of the land below at a glance. The smallness of all living beings was laid bare before his eyes.
...
[Ding! You have completed the class change mission "The Light of Humanity"! Please submit the mission as soon as possible.]
Reaching the summit of Cloudcrest Peak was one of the final objectives of the class change mission.
Now that all three objectives had been completed, he only needed to return and turn in the mission to obtain the new-version unlock scroll and the forbidden-grade Archer Class Awakening Scroll.
[Ding! You have obtained the achievent "Rising Star of the Era"! You have received the special items "Phantom Emporium (supre-grade)," "Earth Elental Core," and "Light Elental Core"!]
Listening to the system notification, Daniel let out a long breath.
There was no need to say much about the Elental Cores—they were tied to unlocking that Chronoverse Prologue Codex.
He had already collected three Elental Cores before. With these two added, this made the fifth.
Once he gathered all ten, he would obtain the forbidden power of the Laws of Ti and Space.
Still, there was no rush in that matter.
He turned his gaze toward the other reward—Phantom Emporium.
After receiving the Millionfold Boost, this achievent reward had actually ascended into a transcendent special item.
[Phantom Emporium (supre-grade)]
Effect: Can spawn phantoms within a designated area. Range: 10000 × 10000
Number of phantoms: 10,000
Refresh frequency: Once every 60 minutes
Maximum phantom rank: transcendent legendary-grade
The level cap increases as the world version advances. Killing phantoms grants normal drops.
Special: The user possesses full authority and may freely adjust the strength of the phantoms.
Description: A mysterious ancient relic of unknown origin, greatly enhancing the strength of adventurers.
Daniel nodded slightly.
This item was essentially an endlessly refreshing trial ground.
The key point was that the strength of the phantoms could be adjusted freely. If given to players, it could raise their combat power to an entirely new level in an extrely short ti.
He put the item back into his backpack.
...
[Ding! On behalf of humanity, you have claid supre glory. Humanity has been rewarded with 15,000,000 Fortune Points! You have received a Fortune Points reward: special item "Ancestral Totem (???)"!]
[Ding! Your Fortune Points have risen to first place on the Fortune Points Ranking!]
Daniel’s gaze flickered.
This wave of Fortune Points rewards had directly pushed humanity to the top of the ranking, suppressing Harris of the Starlight Folk into second place!
And this Fortune Points reward itself seed anything but ordinary.
He took out the totem scroll that radiated an ancient aura.
[Ancestral Totem (???)]
Level: ???
Rank: ???
Effect: Can be used in the world of your own race, imdiately granting [Ancestral Sanctum] ×100, [Ancestral Monunt] ×100, [Ancestral Sacred Statue] ×100.
[Ancestral Sanctum]: Suppresses all non-human races within a radius of ten thousand ters! Immovable.
[Ancestral Monunt]: Each monunt can offset 100 points of lost racial Fortune Points.
[Ancestral Sacred Statue]: Each statue can manifest one ancestral sage of the race for 6 hours.
Daniel read it word by word, and for a long ti his heart could not calm down.
His luck was simply too heaven-defying—he had actually obtained such a treasure!
This reward was of imasurable importance.
With it, even if humanity were pushed into desperate straits, they would never be exterminated.
At the very least, they would possess a pure land that could not be invaded.
For the humanity of his previous lives, sothing like this was beyond even their wildest dreams.
This gain could not be asured by any standard of value.
Just then,
the final system notification sounded.
[Ding! You have reached the summit of Cloudcrest Peak! Achievent completed: [Astral Morning Star]. Would you like to initiate a wide-area broadcast?]
