When he opened his eyes again, another wooden chair appeared beside him.
Lin Xian, who was wearing a beige short skirt, was sitting there. Her white and red little toes gently stirred the water's surface, creating small ripples.
"You're awake?" Lin Xian asked with a smile when Ling Yi woke up.
"Huh? What are you doing here?"
Ling Yi looked at the shade of the trees on the ground and saw that the sun had shifted from its position before he slept. 'It seems like I've been sleeping for half an hour.'
"Why can't I be here?"
Lin Xian placed her hands on the edge of the wooden chair and leaned forward slightly. She looked at him before beginning to explain the purpose of her visit, "God's Path has been updated. Do you have any thoughts on this?"
"No, I don't,"
He opened the forum and took another look. He shook his head, "The details of the update haven't been released yet. I won't make wild guesses."
"What about the Great Universe Pre-competition?"
Ling Yi understood now. This woman was still concerned about the situation after clearing the main road.
He sized up Lin Xian's beautiful figure that was hidden by her white dress and chuckled, "Why do I feel like you care more about the future of the world than those people in Clear Lotus Palace? You were the one who helped me the most when we were fighting against the Nest God."
"As expected, you're the real fairy who cares about the world, huh?"
Ling Yi smiled before his expression turned serious. "I don't know what this Great Universe Pre-competition is, but it obviously sounds like a competition."
"It'll be crucial to see who's competing against who…"
Ling Yi and Lin Xian frowned.
"You mentioned… Since this is a competition in the great universe, do you think it would be a competition between players from other planets?" Lin Xian wondered.
"It's possible… Isn't there a "Otherworld Rescue" event coming? It seemed to imply that there might be players from another world,"
"Another world… Does it really exist?"
Ling Yi was slightly stunned.
He, who had transmigrated, had already proven that the other world did exist.
"Since there's an event for it, then it must exist." He nodded in affirmation.
Lin Xian placed her feet on the edge of the chair. She wrapped her arms around her legs and rested her chin on her knees. "If that's the case, then we'll have to make full preparations before we fight the last checkpoint… Speaking of which, when are you going to attempt the 17th checkpoint?"
"… I'll think about it after the update it tomorrow."
"Then I'll come back tomorrow."
"Don't. I'm going to go through the Clan Trial tonight. You should come with me."
Lin Xian had originally established a clan, but for some reason, her clan was disbanded and she joined his clan instead. She was now in charge of the endurance tower.
"Alright," She agreed easily. She nodded slightly, got up, and flew toward the top of the grass slope.
Ling Yi's eyes subconsciously followed her figure. He suddenly saw something and quickly lowered his head.
The Ice Queen, who was sitting on the treetop and reading a book quietly, seemed to have sensed something. She lowered her head and glanced at Ling Yi, then calmly retracted her gaze.
It was thanks to her presence that the surroundings were not too hot.
…
[Are you sure you want to apply for the "Clan Trial"?]
At night, back in the living room….
Ling Yi glanced at the other five people who had joined his clan and asked, "Is everybody ready?"
"Yes!"
"I'm ready!"
"…"
The five of them nodded at the same time.
"That's good."
"I'm sure!" Ling Yi turned to God's Path.
As soon as he finished speaking, five different-colored light pillars descended from the void and shone on the five people in front of him.
The five of them disappeared in front of Ling Yi and Xiao Ya.
The clan trial was a challenge for the clan to level up, and it needed to be carried out by the clan members in charge of the attribute towers. If a clan member fails, the clan leader can represent the clan in battle.
Thus, it didn't matter even if all five of them failed. Ling Yi was confident that he could complete all five challenges on his own.
…
The view changed.
Lin Shurou was sent to the bottom of the sea about 50 meters deep.
The sun shone dimly through the clear water, splotching against her skin.
A transparent hemisphere shield was covering the place, allowing her to breathe and move.
[Magic Tower Challenge: The deep water shield can withstand external pressure and impact, but it is currently short on energy. Please replenish its energy.]
[If the shield is not broken after 10 minutes, you will successfully complete the trial.]
[Prompt: Touch the protective shield and inject your magical energy into it.]
'To put it bluntly, it's to test my continuous magical power output.'
...
Lin Shurou smiled gently, and instantly, it was as if a beautiful celestial flower had bloomed. The entire deep sea seemed to have brightened up.
She quickly walked to the side of the protective shield and placed her jade white hand on it. At the same time, she activated all her magical power and injected it into the protective shield.
A faint blue glow appeared on the surface of her body. With Ling Yi's help, she had absolute confidence that she could complete the task with her magic power of over 4,000!
If it wasn't for the fact that the mana Ling Yi had copied from the Ice Queen couldn't be transferred, her mana would probably be even higher than Ling Yi's!
At the same time, elsewhere…
Yunji, who was in charge of the strength tower, frowned.
In front of her was a two-meter-tall Strength Meter.
[Tower of Strength Challenge: Please attack the Strength Meter 10 times in the next minute. You will complete the challenge if your average strength exceeds 30,000 combat power.]
[Prompt: You can use Skills and items to increase your strength, but you can only use your fists to complete the challenge.]
'30,000 combat power… Phew, it's a good thing I can use items.'
If Ling Yi's support gave her the strength attribute, this would be a piece of cake.
...
However, the problem was that she had only just risen to level 49, so she was still unable to become his Support partner.
At level 49, if she had 30,000 combat power, her strength would be at least 613.
Yunji took out a pair of red boxing gloves and a pair of dark red wrist guards from her backpack and put them on her fair, delicate hands.
[Power Fist (A)]: After wearing it, when punching, strength will temporarily increase by 300 points.
[Power Bracer (A)]: After wearing it, one's agility will be reduced by 30%, and strength will be increased by 50%.
Ling Yi had given these two items. He said that he got them from the treasure vault.
No matter how many times she looked at it, Yunji always felt it was ridiculous.
"Why does everything that Ling Yi touches become stronger?"
The words of doubt came out of her moist red lips. Yunjii was only puzzled for a moment before she shook her head and threw it to the back of her mind.
No matter what the truth was, she won't leave him.
Raising her golden eyes to look at the Strength Meter, she subconsciously covered her mouth and laughed. Immediately after, she took a few steps forward to the meter. Her white fingers clenched into a delicate little fist, and she punched the meter hard!
Although her movements looked like that of an ordinary, delicate girl, when the punch landed, a thunder-like explosion immediately followed upon contact!
BOOM!
A circle of invisible ripples spreads out in all directions, and on the measuring device, the green numbers rapidly jumped higher and higher.
After a while, a shocking number appeared on it.
32,120!
Yunji was a little disappointed. She felt that her punch could be even more powerful.
Hence, she punched again.
35,141!
Although she felt that she had not reached her limit, this result was enough.
"Phew… I've cleared the stage."
At the same time, the other challenges were in a similar situation.
It was mostly thanks to Ling Yi's Support or because of the items he provided, clearing the trial was not a trouble at all!
Not long after Yunji completed her challenge, she exited the trial scene. She was the first to return, and she laughed and lay on Ling Yi's body, exhaling like orchids against the wind.
"Master, I completed the challenge. Do you want to reward me with something?"
Ling Yi's face was full of black lines as he pushed her aside.
"Tsk, what a heartless man."
Yunji sat back on her small sofa gloomily, her soft fingers twirling her thick black hair as she opened the "Insight Crystal Ball" to observe the world.
Soon, the other four successfully passed their trials and returned to the main world.
All the clan members received the notification that their clan had successfully leveled up.
[Congratulations on completing the Clan Trial!]
[Clan Scale has been upgraded to intermediate level!]
[Prompt: Clans are divided into low, intermediate, and high levels]
