I'm clearly a Swordsman, so how could I possibly obtain the power of The Fallen? There are no so-called Attributes on it; it's just a True Qi Attack from The Fallen.
It's that simple.
[Hundred Times Amplification in progress... Amplification successful...]
This Skill is by no means comparable to Wan Jian Gui Clan, but it's exactly what Jiang Chen needs most: the power of The Fallen. It strikes directly at the Soul and kills anyone, ensuring that even if a Son of God is killed, they won't resurrect.
When Eleanor challenged Jiang Chen, he had his reservations.
He was an [Apostles]; on the other side were the [Order] Sons of God.
If he killed Eleanor, once she resurrected, destruction awaited Jiang Chen. He could only rely on others to kill Eleanor.
But now it's different. With this Skill, he could take action without any concerns.
What nonsense about the Sons of God. Take this Finger Attack and then we'll talk.
Anyone killed by The Fallen will not be resurrected, because The Fallen's attack targets not only the physical body but also the Soul.
In other words, Jiang Chen, in his capacity as a Swordsman, indirectly obtained the power of The Fallen.
After Jiang Chen learned the art of disguise from his master, the Demon with a Thousand Faces, a bold idea took shape—he could impersonate The Fallen by disguising himself since he had claimed their power.
Jiang Chen asked, "How did you get this Skill?"
"I'm not sure about that; only my mother knows."
Jiang Chen pondered. I must find out. Why could a Swordsman obtain the power of The Fallen?
Jiang Chen thought of someone—Bai Yun. This person once gained the power of The Fallen and also had the power of the Swordsman Badge. That means he had two kinds of Strength within him. If I could do the same as Bai Yun, that would be great! However, Bai Yun eventually gave up the Swordsman Badge. He was originally one of The Fallen. How then did he acquire the power of the Badge?
This was something Jiang Chen couldn't understand.
He was determined to figure it out. Ideally, I could acquire both powers.
Jiang Chen had roughly understood that the system existed; even if one gave up the power of the Swordsman Badge, it wouldn't disappear.
But Jiang Chen would not give it up.
The Fallen have no God. They cannot refine God's Seal, even with Hundred Times Amplification. Otherwise, The Fallen would have already produced a God. Jiang Chen didn't know the difference between a Hero and a God.
However, becoming a God was his ultimate goal. To become the God of Swordsmen, although the hope was slim, remained Jiang Chen's only chance. So, he wouldn't give up the Swordsman Badge.
The reason The Fallen are oppressed is their lack of a God to support them. No matter how strong The Fallen are, they can't match the power of a God. Another important point: being in the Alliance of All-Gods is good. Why would I give that up? A lonely figure by the cold river, a passerby in the martial world... I don't want to become that kind of person. Bread and a big bed are more comfortable than steamed buns and straw mats. And I happen to like bread! And this 'bread' is quite substantial...
Lisa asked, "How is this Skill?"
"Not bad," he replied casually.
Lisa rolled her eyes. "Don't be insincere. I saw how excited you were; your heart almost leaped out. Now you can go with me to the Different Worlds to seek the Spiritual Pearl, right?"
Jiang Chen replied earnestly, "What are you talking about? Even without the Skill, I would go with you. As a Hero of the Alliance of All-Gods, I would never stand idly by."
Lisa wasn't buying Jiang Chen's nonsense. She had figured it out: this guy was pursuing benefits. Without benefits, getting him to help was simply impossible. Humans really are greedy creatures.
Even without the Skill Book, I would still enter, if for nothing else, for the experience points, Jiang Chen thought. I'm only level 103 now, far from the third class change at level 150! Now I need 10,000,000 experience points. Who knows how much I'll need later—fifty million, or maybe a hundred million!
Upholding the principle of not letting a good opportunity go to waste, he accepted the Skill.
Lisa led more than a hundred people, while Jiang Chen brought Jiang Qiu and others into a different dimensional world.
The whole world was somewhat similar to other Different Worlds. The sky was a dull grey, and other than rocks, there was only desert.
No one had expected the Different World to be so desolate.
"How can the entire world be like this?"
"It looks almost like a place ruled by an Evil God."
"This is pretty normal for a Different World."
"I remember the Underworld is also a Different World, but it's completely different."
Jiang Chen was also filled with doubts, wondering why all Different Worlds were like this.
Lisa explained, "That's because of Energy."
"What Energy?"
"Every world needs a constant flow of Energy to develop. For example, trees need life Energy to survive, and plants also need Energy. Without gods, a Different World can't gather Energy. Without rules, there would be chaos and killings, resulting in no source of Energy. Gradually, the Different World will become desolate, and the life within it will slowly die."
Jiang Chen smiled. Protecting Earth starts with me. Prohibit unauthorized deforestation!
Lisa continued to explain, "When you enter another Different World and see such a scene, it indicates one thing: that the Different World has no gods, and they have already perished."
Jiang Chen had an epiphany. No wonder the conditions of the Underworld and the Xileruo World were tied to this principle! The Underworld, for instance, had gods.
Alice asked, "If there are no gods, then the God's Seal wouldn't disappear, and Ancient Badges might even appear, right?"
"Yes."
Alice and the others were very envious, especially of the Ancient Badges, like the Insect Clan Badge on Jiang Qiu's hand—mysterious and powerful.
Jiang Qiu said, "I'll scout ahead."
Jiang Qiu released her Nano Insects, which quickly scattered in all directions to survey the terrain. Soon, the Nano Insects returned to Jiang Qiu's side, bringing back information.
"There are no enemies around."
Lisa took out a Compass, which pointed east. She said, "Now I know why they stole the Spiritual Pearl. Perhaps it was for Energy, to bring life to the entire Different World. The Spiritual Pearl is in the east."
"Then let's hurry. Before they destroy the Spiritual Pearl, let's find it and take it back."
A group of a hundred people traversed the desert, heading east. An endless desert, nothing but yellow sand, without any trace of life.
After the group of over one hundred people had traveled some distance, Jiang Chen stopped in his tracks.
SSSSSS...
A faint sound caught Jiang Chen's attention. Feeling the ground tremble slightly, he thought with dread, This is bad! Careful, it's not that we haven't encountered enemies, but that the enemies are hidden beneath the sand!
Lisa quickly summoned a Giant Dragon, and the rest did the same, all mounting their Giant Dragons.
Jiang Qiu and a few others also summoned their Covenant Beasts, and Angelina did as well. After a period of nurturing, the Covenant Beasts had grown up. Although their Attack Power wasn't comparable to Lisa's and the others' Giant Dragons, riding them was not a problem.
They quickly ascended into the sky.
Jiang Chen summoned Olive.
Olive, with her cute, round eyes, looked at Jiang Chen and asked, "What's up?"
"Turn into a dragon, let me ride you."
"I can't just let anyone ride me."
Damn it... At a time like this, you're telling me that?
