Chapter 329: 162, Hidden Kill_3

“The first plan’s test is in the attached space ‘Challenge Platform’ of the Second Cosmic Network.”

Councilman Yan said, “The test requires you to defeat head-on everyone currently ahead of you on the Challenge Platform who is using the Energy Gathering Pool.”

“Everyone?” Lin Qing raised an eyebrow.

“Among these people, could there be high-level original creatures?” he asked immediately.

Logically speaking, high-level original creatures are already Sixth Energy Level lifeforms. Sensing the same level of force is very easy for them, and even without the Energy Gathering Pool, they can quickly get accustomed to it.

And in cultivating divine skills, the key lies in understanding essence, which requires prehension, not help from the Energy Gathering Pool.

But it’s not entirely impossible.

“Because there is a high-level original creature, I say you have no hope.”

Councilman Yan shook his head and said, “Although that person only holds a basic divine position, they are a high-level original creature and have the patible holy texts ‘Poison Heart,’ ‘Extinction,’ and ‘Heart Mirror.'”

“That person can’t pass the fourth layer of the Star Abyss, but they can hold on for a while, even depleting one or two demons in the fourth layer to death. In the third layer of the Star Abyss, they are also very strong. Your apparent strength should be far inferior to theirs, right?”

Lin Qing slightly frowned.

He had engraved the holy text ‘Blood Blade,’ and his mander ability to control divine weapons had also bee extremely strong. Paired with his domain, he could pass the third layer of the Star Abyss even without using a pseudo divine body.

But there is a big difference in strength even among those who pass the third layer. For instance, the explosive power of the Black Flame Clone is far superior to his.

Holy texts, professional abilities, and basic attributes all contribute to differences in strength.

His apparent strength is just barely enough to pass the third layer of the Star Abyss, barely above the baseline, far from the baseline required to pass the fourth.

And as the opponent is a high-level original creature, a Sixth Energy Level lifeform, their basics are much stronger than his, and they also have holy texts.

The difference of one energy level is a huge gap.

If he used a pseudo divine body, he might be able to fight.

But how could he use it in front of so many people?

That would be the same as directly admitting that he is a Power Awakened.

“Who is that person?” Lin Qing asked.

Councilman Yan said, “A senior member of the Yan Family from the top three families, Yan Tianquan, the third-ranking person in the Yan Family, ranked 197th in the Star Abyss.”

“The others are fine. As long as you have the strength to pass the third layer of the Star Abyss, you can basically handle them.”

He shook his head, “But this Yan Tianquan, he obtained a basic divine skill inheritance in the Celestial Vault Islands and hasn’t attempted the Original Level Divine Vocation Trial after so many years, intending to master the divine skill first, hoping to elevate to a rare divine position of the Original Level.”

Lin Qing wondered, “A basic divine position can transform into a rare divine position?”

“Of course.”

Councilman Yan said, “There is no direct link between a basic divine position and an original level divine position, just that holding a basic divine position makes it easier to adopt an original level divine position.”

“In theory, as long as you are strong enough, you could assume a star-level divine position without holding any divine position.”

He said, “As long as you meet the divine position’s requirements, you can even switch to another series of divine positions.”

“I always thought the basic divine position was a prerequisite…” Lin Qing slightly shook his head.

“Just easier, that’s all.” Councilman Yan glanced at him and said, “There’s no way this time. How about you wait a bit longer?”

“Alright.” Lin Qing nodded, “I didn’t think my opponents would include a high-level original creature.”

He understood, this test might seem unfair, but it was actually relatively fair.

Because he was trying to cut in line, which was already unfair to others, he had to pay an adequate price or demonstrate sufficient value.

“Nothing can be done.” Councilman Yan shook his head, “Anyway, bear with it.”

“I understand.” Lin Qing nodded, “I’ll just wait until I bee a high-level original creature.”

…

That night.

As night fell, the urban circle transformed into the Sleepless City once again, the dazzling and glorious lights illuminating the night sky.

Within one of the apartments for potential Star Patrol members in the fortress of the Star Patrol Council.

“…Grandma, rest assured, Tianquan understands everything.”

In the living room, a bald middle-aged man with slanted eyes and nearly invisible eyebrows, with a slightly sinister demeanor, respectfully looked at the holographic projection in front of him.

The holographic projection was of a young and beautiful woman, with dazzlingly white skin, dressed in pure white, her long black hair flowing down, looking gentle and harmless, as pure as a budding maiden.

“Yan Tianquan, I know you are greedy and easily tempted.”

The girl in white softly said, “But remember, this is an order from the Intelligent Star Group. If Lin Qing es to you, no matter how much he offers, you must not agree, unless he agrees to pledge loyalty to Intelligent Star, there is no other possibility, understand?”

“Understood.” Yan Tianquan respectfully said.

“Moreover, you have occupied that Energy Gathering Pool for too long and have already caused dissatisfaction among some members of Intelligent Star Group.

The girl in white said indifferently, “Give up on the divine skill path. Even though your prehension isn’t bad, you might not master a divine skill in this lifetime, plus the inheritance you got is just a mon divine skill, not much stronger than holy texts. Understanding the essence is too difficult; do you plan to spend your whole life on this?”

Yan Tianquan slightly frowned.

“Participate in the Original Level Divine Vocation Trial sooner.”

The girl in white looked at him, “You should feel fortunate to be born on Earth, where you can obtain holy texts. Even if the Original Level Divine Vocation Trial requires you to pete with other divine officials, your holy text advantage is already enough.”
