Sanctuary Paradise

Chapter 512: Yan Yi [9k words]

According to Yamu, everything started from the talent of "late bloomer".

Xin Lailai had actually heard of the talent "Late Bloomer" in the past. To be more precise, she had accidentally glanced at the introduction of this talent when she was searching for talents that were similar to her own.

However, he did not carefully read the introduction of this talent at that time. After hearing Yamu's description, his first reaction was this:

——A huge pit, but also extremely powerful.

According to the description, from the literal meaning, "Late Bloomer" sounds like a late-stage talent, and it is indeed so. If you only look at the obvious negative effects of "Late Bloomer", you will think that this talent has no future at all:

……

[Late Bloomer (Growth Talent·S Level)]:
Talent effect 1, Great Ability (Passive): You need to consume 3 free attribute points/real attribute points to improve 1 physical attribute. You cannot improve a single attribute, all main attributes must be improved together, and strength, agility, stamina, and intelligence are your main attributes by default.

……

All main attributes must be improved at the same time, and 3 attribute points are needed to improve 1 attribute point, plus the initial four locked attributes.

In other words, the person who awakens this talent needs to spend a full 12 attribute points at the beginning to perform an attribute enhancement. To obtain the same attribute points, when others have already enhanced their four attributes by 10 points or more, the late bloomer's four attributes have just reached 7 points.

In this case, even if the rewards for surviving the late bloomer are high, it is impossible to make it through in an environment like the park.

But if you take into account the effect of another talent of Late Bloomer, it becomes a completely different story:
……

Talent Effect 2, Late Bloom (Passive): This talent has been additionally notarized by the Sanctuary Paradise, and the speed at which your brand level increases is reduced by 90%.

……

The speed of brand level increase is reduced by 90%. When I saw this talent effect, my first reaction was this:
——Fuck this stupid talent, this is clearly a godly skill!!
Yes, magical skills.

If the effect of the first talent of Late Bloomer is a tiankeng, then the effect of this second talent is a god-level talent that beats all the developmental talents he has ever seen.

Let’s not talk about anything else, taking himself as an example, what will happen if the growth of his attribute points is slowed down by 3 times, but the growth of his brand level is slowed down by 10 times?
The answer is that he could repeat the deliberate leveling and basic passive skills of novice contractors in the Overlord world at least 10 times in the second stage, and the fault tolerance rate of the Source of the World was extremely high. Even if he messed up, it would only add LV.0.1 or LV.0.2 levels of the brand. He didn't have to worry about missing a world's progress due to a failed leveling as he did at the time.

To put it more bluntly, it will directly increase his resource accumulation efficiency, knowledge learning time, the number of times he enters the land of all living beings... everything related to time and world frequency will all be increased by 10 times.

Not to mention the advantages in other resources, just the Land of All Living Things, under normal circumstances, even if he deliberately suppressed a level in the Overlord world, the entire second level would only enter the Land of All Living Things four times.

But if he has a late bloomer in hand, based on the average increase in the brand level by LV.0.4 in each world, it is equivalent to him being able to enter the Land of All Living Things a full 25 times at the second stage!
What does it mean to enter the Land of Living Beings 25 times? Considering that normally most contractors only start to come into contact with this thing at the fifth level, it can be said that 25 times is even more than the number of times many ninth-level contractors have entered it in their lifetime.

Given the effect of the Land of All Living Things on improving skills, if you really enter it 25 times, it can be said that even if you replace it with a pig, it will be able to figure out a set of combos.

As for the cost of attribute points being three times slower? If placed in the outside world, this negative effect would definitely be fatal, but in the paradise where the rank division is extremely clear and the world matching is based on the contractor's brand level, it is another matter.

Taking himself as an example, in fact, when his brand level reached LV.19, his naked attributes had all reached the limit value of 80 points. If it is converted proportionally into the talent effect of late bloomer, it means that he needs to reach LV.12.7 before his own attributes can be pulled to the limit value of the second level.

Well, for most of the second-level contractors, at this time they have probably experienced at most three second-level derivative worlds, and the average attribute of their naked equipment is only around 60 at most.

At this time, if these LV.13 contractors were matched with a contractor who had a similar brand level to them, but had accumulated ten times as many resources as them at the first level and whose four attributes were maxed out, the scene would probably be even more completely crushing than when he dealt with Mingyu and Xiekuang.

It can be said that as long as it is used well, late bloomer is an ultimate snowball talent, and it can snowball much more thoroughly than others.

The key lies in how to "use" this talent well, or in other words, how to survive the much more difficult start of a late bloomer than other contractors, and step by step reach your own advantage zone.

It can be said that this step has trapped almost all the contractors who possessed the talent of late bloomers in the past. Even if there were a few who survived, they could only survive with difficulty until the transformation period of the talent itself arrived, completely wasting the advantage of late bloomers during the accumulation period.

At least, according to the information in the paradise, before the Golden Age, there were no less than twenty contractors with the talent of "late bloomer" who were born in the entire history of the paradise. The strongest one among them was successfully recorded in the history of the paradise, known as "Iron Dragon Cain", and left his name in the biographies related to White Night.

But even the "Iron Dragon" recorded in the history books, before the transformation that came with "late bloomer", was only able to survive with difficulty in the paradise, and never snowballed. And the final outcome of the opponent was also in a crucial world battle, where he was kicked like a soldier by Bai Ye, who had reached his absolute limit at the time, and turned into a bloody mist, ending in a bleak way.

It can be said that it was the ending of the "Iron Dragon" that made the several "late bloomers" who appeared later have no hope for their future. In the end, their fate was all quietly submerged in the long river of time. None of them could attract as much attention as the "Iron Dragon" did back then.

——Until the name "Yanyi" appeared.

Yan Yi, a core member of the Three Thousand Gods Sect, a senior manager of the Void Construction Company, his real name is unknown, his talent is a late bloomer, a third-level pioneer, and his specific strength is unknown.

These are the current information about Yan Yi. If we go back twenty years, Yan Yi at that time was not a member of the Three Thousand Gods Religion, nor was he the monster who had left a serious psychological trauma on five generations of people as described by Yamu. He was just a weak and sickly child, who was sent by his parents to a Taoist temple affiliated with the Three Thousand Gods Religion to be raised. He spent his childhood with scriptures, and when he was a teenager he was as mature as an adult in his thirties or forties. He graduated from the Taoist temple in his youth, and when he was about to pursue his dream, he was suddenly diagnosed with a terminal illness. After fighting the disease on the hospital bed for three years, he was chosen by Paradise as an ordinary person.

The recruitment of Paradise was a miraculous salvation for Yanyi at that time. In order not to waste this second life, Yanyi at that time naturally put all his means into it. Relying on his understanding of the plot of the derivative world and the mature character he had honed in his past life, he planned carefully and operated boldly. In the end, he led the plot characters in that derivative world who were in a very unfavorable stage to turn defeat into victory, took down the head of the plot BOSS, and obtained an excellent evaluation of A+ level.

For a normal contractor, they can basically declare their takeoff at this point. To be able to obtain an A+ rating in the trial world is a standard rare existence among a group of new contractors. Normally speaking, as long as they remain stable and do not waste time in the future, they can at least get into the first echelon at the first stage.

——If I hadn’t awakened to “late bloomer”.

Just like the "Iron Dragon" recorded in history, Yan Yi's "late bloomer" also awakened when he just ended the trial world. Not only that, because he learned a passive skill with a charm tendency in the trial world, Paradise directly judged his charm attribute as an affinity attribute, and when his talent awakened, it was changed to the main attribute together with the other four attributes.

In other words, if the owner of "Late Bloomer" in the past could enhance his attributes once he accumulated 12 attribute points after awakening, when it came to Yanyi, he needed to accumulate a full 15 attribute points to enhance his attributes once.

——You should know that even if it obtained an excellent evaluation of A+ in the trial world, the attribute points it finally obtained were only 6 points.

It can be said that if it were an ordinary person, facing such a devastating start with so many ups and downs, his mentality would have collapsed long ago.

But Yan Yi didn’t. Being abandoned by his parents in childhood did not break him down. The boredom of reading scriptures in his childhood did not break him down. The three years of hard work in his youth did not break him down. The illness in his youth did not break him down. The life and death situation in the trial world did not break him down. Now he is just a late bloomer. How could anything break him down?
Ups and downs? How many ups and downs can compare to a young man full of ambitions, who was told that he had a terminal illness just after taking the first step in his life and could only lie in bed with the disease all day long?
So, Yan resisted, or to be more precise, accepted the reality that he had awakened to being a late bloomer with a very calm attitude, and decisively seized the information that everything in the paradise was equivalently exchanged. He quickly launched an investigation in the paradise and collected a lot of information about "late bloomer" and "paradise", "attribute points" and "branding level".

After sorting out this information, Yanyi, who had just entered the park for less than three days, keenly realized the advantages of the talent of "late bloomer" in the park:
——The levels in Paradise are clearly divided. As long as you avoid the semi-open and open worlds, there is basically no chance of being bullied by a contractor who is one level higher than you.

——The growth rate of his late bloomer brand level and the slower growth rate of attribute points are not 1:1 but 10:3. In addition, Paradise arranges the world and matches the contractors according to the brand level, which means that as long as he can survive the first few worlds, he can directly snowball among the contractors of the same level.

After thinking this through, Yan Yi immediately realized the power of "late bloomer", and at the same time began to think about how he should survive the next few worlds.

At the end of this thinking, Yan Yi came to a conclusion:
impossible.

That's right, it's impossible.

Because he awakened his talent after completing the trial world, his brand level has reached LV.2. However, influenced by his talent, his physical attributes are destined to have an insurmountable gap with other LV.2 novice contractors.

In this situation, it is simply impossible to survive the first few worlds as a contractor with late bloomers and snowball little by little in the later worlds by your own efforts.

Yan Yi, who understood this, his first reaction was to form a group.

——Using one's own future as a promise, temporarily seek the protection of a certain sect in Paradise, and trade the "future" for the "present".

This was the first plan Yan Yi thought of, but when he officially started to act, he soon found that things were not as smooth as he imagined:

The cult in Paradise is not stupid. As long as the owner of "Late Bloomer" can successfully snowball, he will be able to establish an absolute advantage in his own rank, and then feed back to the entire cult. Anyone with a little bit of brains can easily figure this out.

The problem was that he had just entered the park and was unable to provide any effective protection.

Snowballing sounds great, but this is something that even the former "Iron Dragon" couldn't do. Even if he obtained an A+ rating in the trial world, it is obviously impossible to expect a cult to protect him in at least three worlds based on this alone.

After all, no matter how much he escorts them, it is an unchanging fact that he himself is too weak in the early stage. In other words, his existence during the team formation is the biggest flaw and burden of the team. To win the world with such a person, basically other newcomers in the group can only let their lives be protected. But the Cult is not a group of death warriors, and other contractors are not dead. Why should they willingly sacrifice themselves for him?

Therefore, not surprisingly, all of Yan Yi's self-recommendations were rejected. Although several summoning contractors suggested sending summoned creatures to help him, Yan Yi ultimately did not agree.

It wasn't that Yan Yi looked down on those summons or was too arrogant, but because...

——At that time, he had already found a better way out than joining a group by volunteering for a job!
That's right, after a whole day of hitting a wall, Yanyi, who was much more familiar with the layout of the park, keenly realized the most suitable approach to survive the "late bloomer" start:
That is... giving up becoming a contractor!
Yes, give up, completely give up the identity of a contractor and choose to become an employee. This is the final solution Yan Yi thought of!
The core reason why he would be rejected is that as long as he maintains his identity as a contractor, he will inevitably face various dangerous main tasks. During this period, he is very likely to become a flaw and burden to the entire team due to his own lack of strength, and thus drag down everyone.

During this process, it was difficult for him to bring any substantial benefits and help to the team. Most of the time, he was like a termite, constantly gnawing at the team's achievements and reaping the benefits. If it were him, he would definitely not agree to such outrageous cooperation conditions.

But if he gave up his status as a contractor and became a worker, the situation would be completely different.

In the group of workers, combat power is not an important factor at all. At least among the workers that Yan has met in the past one or two days, there are many first-level workers with the same attributes as him.

Not only that, according to the information he had inquired about, these workers not only had long mission worlds, easy missions, and extremely low world frequency, but also stayed in the paradise for a long time each time they returned. When they entered the world, they basically only entered various worlds with extremely low danger levels, and they could purchase exemptions from mission penalties from the paradise at an extremely low price. They were the kind of people who would find it difficult to die if they put in a little effort.

It can be said that, in comparison, the identity of an employee has far more advantages than the identity of a contractor for Yanyi, who has just awakened to his "late bloomer" state.

As for the rule that once the contractor voluntarily gives up his contractor status and voluntarily downgrades to an employee, there will be no chance to change back?

This does sound scary, but Yanyi believes more in the result of his question about Paradise:

[In Paradise, everything is exchanged at equal value]

So, all the factors are in place, the only thing missing is the last step:
strength.

He became an employee in order to retreat in order to advance, to strategically avoid periods of weakness and then come back with a stronger attitude, rather than to be an employee for life or to survive for the rest of his life.

However, it is an indisputable fact that workers have very few channels to obtain attribute points and their strength improvement is extremely slow.

Therefore, he must find a way to steadily improve his strength while serving as an employee, otherwise, all the lofty words above will be empty talk.

There is no doubt that this is a thorny problem. After all, the comfort of workers is obtained by giving up becoming stronger. If it is possible to enjoy a comfortable life while becoming stronger, then a large number of contractors would have done so long ago.

But fortunately, he finally found a way.

Three Thousand Gods Religion.

There is a saying in Paradise: Once you start cultivating immortals, it is as deep as the ocean, and from then on, people of the same level are just passers-by.

This sentence does not mean that the water of cultivating immortals is very deep and there are many pitfalls hidden, but it is simply because the Qi training system template developed by the Three Thousand Divine Sects really requires too much talent!

For those with good talent, one day is equivalent to a year of effort for others. They can draw Qi into their bodies in three days, build a small foundation in a month, achieve golden elixir in half a year, and become a spirit in two years. Their strength improvement is no less than those of the outer-level contractors who have top inheritance.

For those with poor talent, it may take more than half a year just to draw Qi into the body. While others are already taking the upgrade assessment, he is still trying to get started. There is a huge difference between him and those with excellent talent.

It can be said that countless contractors in Paradise have bought a copy of the "Hundred Days Foundation Building Method" out of curiosity, and countless contractors have cursed in anger after struggling for dozens of days before finally feeling a sense of Qi. High upper limit, strong strength, great power, cool moves... In terms of advantages, the Qi training system, which has long been incorporated into one of the top systems in the star world by the academic sect, can be said to have as many as you want.

But unfortunately, none of these can cover up the other party's most fatal flaw:
It's a huge waste of time.

Building a foundation in a hundred days sounds impressive, but if one really has a full hundred days of free time in Paradise, then one would have already been a second-level contractor for who knows how long. As for three years for Golden Core and five years for Nascent Soul, most contractors probably can't spare five years of free time even when they reach the ninth level. And according to the definition of the Three Thousand Gods Sect, the Nascent Soul only corresponds to a 100-point attribute barrier...

It can be said that the defect of taking too long has directly led to the fact that although the career templates of the cultivation system are very famous in the park, the number of actual users has always been pitifully small.

Not to mention that the cultivation system also has extremely high requirements on mentality and patience. Otherwise, if one accidentally gets out of breath when breaking through the realm, it will not be as simple as exploding and dying.

——But these are not a problem for Yanyi, who is a late bloomer.

Character? Patience? These were cultivated during his childhood and adolescence.

Time? Sorry, there is probably no one in the entire park who has more free time than the employee who has the talent of "late bloomer".

Thus, a legend began to brew.

After thinking the direction clearly, Yan Yi did not give up his identity as a contractor immediately. Instead, he found the member of the Three Thousand Gods Religion who had rejected him before, explained his new plan and the advantages of it to the other party again, and expressed the hope that the other party could recommend him into the Three Thousand Gods Religion and become a formal employee of the Three Thousand Gods Religion.

This time, after hearing Yan Yi's plan, the member of the Three Thousand Gods Sect's eyes lit up on the spot, and he exclaimed that he had found a talent. Without saying a word, he took Yan Yi to the headquarters of the Three Thousand Gods Sect.

Not only that, it was as if Yan Yi had finally endured the predetermined suffering with his own willpower. After arriving at the Three Thousand Gods Sect and testing his talent, he finally welcomed the first happy event in his life worth celebrating:
In the words of the Three Thousand Gods Sect member who was in charge of the test, he possessed top-notch qualifications in both the way of Qi training and the way of the warrior. He was a natural born to cultivate immortality, a rare genius among billions!
This news even directly attracted the attention of a top-notch strongman who happened to be in the Three Thousand Gods Sect at the time. He immediately thought of accepting Yan Yi as his personal disciple, and even advised him that there was no need for him to be a worker anymore, and he could gain a foothold among the contractors of the same level with his own qualifications.

But Yan Yi still refused at that time. The good news about his qualifications did not disturb his mind, but instead strengthened his determination to pursue his own path.

In the end, the top strongest person also agreed with Yan Yi's choice. He only accepted him as a registered disciple, taught him a set of entry-level Qi training methods, and then sent him to the front line.

From then on, Yan Yi's journey began.

In order to take care of the nutritional consumption required for Qi training, Yan Yi specially chose chef as the development path of the employee, and carefully learned various recipes that are beneficial to the growth of human Qi and blood. While completing the tasks assigned by the paradise, he kept practicing the Qi training method and tempered his body at an extremely slow speed.

A more straightforward way to describe it is:
When other workers were cooking, he was practicing Taoism; when other workers were sleeping, he was practicing Taoism; when other workers were strolling around the pleasure street, he was practicing Taoism; when other workers were being eliminated or promoted, he was still practicing Taoism with his high LV.2.6 brand level.

Because the brand level increased too slowly, even after a whole year, the difficulty of Yanyi's worker tasks did not increase much, while the settlement rewards were constantly increasing, allowing him to save a lot of money and buy world keys to various stable derivative worlds to go in and cook and practice Taoism.

During this period, Yan Yi got to know many people because of his own uniqueness, including 04296 and others who had not yet encountered a period of great turmoil, and Mu Tou, who was the face of the Lai Lai cult at the time, and they formed a good relationship.

After that, time passed little by little, and Yanyi's physical attributes continued to improve.

One year... Two years... Three years...

Affected by "late bloomer" and the five main attributes, even though he possessed the most top-notch qualifications for cultivating immortals, Yan Yi's improvement in attributes was far from fast.

According to the other party's plan, he originally intended to spend a full five years to polish all five of his attributes to the maximum value of 49 points before submitting an application to Paradise to become a regular contractor.

But when Yan Yi settled into his fourth year, an incident occurred that affected the six major parks at the time:
——A period of great turmoil has arrived.

No one knows what Yan Yi experienced specifically during that period, but the final result is that when the turbulent period ended, Yan Yi... came out of retirement.

As a 'novice' contractor of level 4.9, with an average physical attribute of 40 and above, and a set of passive + full body dark purple equipment bought with four years of resources, he once again stood on the stage called the contractor.

From that point on, starting from that year, for the next five years, the novice period of those generations of contractors had an insurmountable nightmare.

Even in the end, the opponent, relying on only one person, created a "generation gap" for the contractors at that time, which was called whether they had been beaten by him or not.

And its name has gradually evolved from a simple derivative to a phrase:
"I am not afraid of anything, but I am afraid of the immortals in the world? This is really..."

Deserved.

In the cockpit, Xin Lailai couldn't help but sigh after listening to Yamu's story.

Three thousand divine religions, one of which is the "natural barrier".

According to Yamu, this name was not given by Yan Yi himself, but was voluntarily called out by the contractors who had been beaten by him during the five years.

After all, no matter who it is, if he can defeat five generations of people by his own efforts, he will probably be given such a title.

Just imagine, when you ask the contractors who are one level higher than you, you find out that they, as well as their predecessors from the previous generation and the previous generation, were all beaten to pieces by the same person when they were at a lower level. What kind of feeling would that be?
"By the way, why are all these things you talked about Yan Yiyi and the second level? What about his deeds at the third level?"

"I don't know. That monster hasn't fought since he was banned from participating in all the second and third level competitions in the park 15 years ago. After he was promoted to the third level 10 years ago, he disappeared. God knows what strength this monster has now?"

"If you really want to ask, why not ask Daoji? His master is Yanyi's senior brother and has a very close relationship with Yanyi. Maybe he can know something?"

Yamu spread his hands, looking as if he didn't know either, and looked at Dao Ji beside him.

"This... Please forgive me, I don't know much about Master Yanyi's situation. I only know that Master Yanyi seems to be doing something and has obtained permission from the paradise to stay in the paradise for a long time."

"Is this true? Even you, the real disciple of Master Bai, have rarely seen him?"

"I'm sorry to disappoint Fellow Daoist Yamu. Since I joined the Three Thousand Gods Sect, I have only met Uncle Yanyi a few times. In fact, I don't know as much about Uncle Yanyi's experience as you do."

Dao Ji shook his head and confessed, but then he seemed to remember something and suddenly said:

"However, Uncle Yanyi once talked to me about his talent. If you are interested, I can repeat it to you."

"Well, Yan Yi's opinion on late bloomers is something I haven't heard of. Ahem, Brother Dao Ji, can you tell me about it?"

Hearing Dao Ji's remarks, Yamu's eyes lit up and he asked with interest, while Xin Lailai also showed a curious look.

Dao Ji saw the reactions of the two and did not delay any further. Instead, he nodded slightly, a hint of reminiscence in his eyes, and said:

"In fact, to be honest with you two, after I formed the golden elixir, I also asked Uncle Yanyi for advice, and the result of that battle was that I was unable to hurt Uncle Yanyi at all."

"At that time, out of curiosity, I asked Uncle Yanyi about the posture he used in battle, and the answer I got was related to late bloomers."

"According to Master Yan Yi, in his opinion, the real core of late bloomer is actually 'late', not 'success' as the world thinks."

"Everyone thinks that late bloomers are like a black carp turning into a dragon, which is a process of first being suppressed and then rising. It is the accumulation of hundreds of generations that allows one to 'turn into a dragon'. But in Uncle Yanyi's opinion, late bloomers do not have the so-called 'turning into a dragon'. Instead, they are already a 'real dragon' that has not yet grown from the beginning."

Dao Ji stared at the people in front of him, stood with his hands behind his back, and spoke in a deep voice, as if he was trying to imitate the temperament of the person he was referring to as much as possible.

"Everyone in the world believes that the key to success is to transform into a dragon. They all believe that it takes four claws, two wings, and new scales to grow, and then to transform into a dragon with the foundation of a hundred generations. But in my opinion, this is completely wrong!"

"When I first woke up from this body, I lamented the hardships of my predecessors, who toiled and toiled for a chance to transform into a dragon, living in mediocrity for eternity. But when I became aware of this body, I gradually became confused. I couldn't understand why the path of my predecessors was so different from mine."

"At first, I thought this was the result of cultivating immortality, and it would increase day by day. Then, I gradually realized that even without cultivating immortality, my Taoism could also reach this state, and my doubts doubled."

"Is it that the wisdom of the predecessors was not as good as mine? Is it that the ambition of the predecessors was not as high as mine? Is it that the luck of the predecessors was not as good as mine?"

"I had been unable to figure it out, and even forgot to eat and sleep, and had trouble sleeping all night, until I met a god by chance, and then I suddenly realized it!"

"The fault is not in intelligence or fate, but in the heart of becoming a dragon!"

“Turning into a dragon, determining to transform into a dragon, is not only determining that one’s future self will be a dragon, but also determining that one’s current self is nothing but a bird, beast, fish or insect that is not a dragon, and needs to rely on the transformation into a dragon to boost one’s power, ignoring the words ‘late success’, isn’t that ridiculous?!”

"A fish that is too late to become a big fish, a bird that is too late to become a flying bird, an insect that is too late to become a butterfly, these are not dragons!"

"Those who become dragons later in life will certainly become true dragons when they are young. Even a three-year-old baby knows this."

"How can a young insect know the power of a dragon? How can a young dragon fear a heavy load? The ancients regarded themselves as insects, and endured all day long, like a mule or a donkey, trembling with fear, arrogant at first and respectful later. With such behavior, how can they be called true dragons?"

"A dragon is a dragon, and an insect is an insect. Even if you spend your whole life as an insect and one day become a dragon, you are still nothing more than a four-clawed reptile!"

“At this point, I finally understand the difference between me and my predecessors.”

“Predecessors all turned into dragons late, which harmed themselves by becoming insects for half of their lives, and finally became reptiles. I regard turning into a dragon as nothing, which has helped me to understand the root of myself and finally become a true dragon!”

"What do you mean by late success? You are a dragon when you are young, and you are a true dragon when you grow up. If you are already a true dragon, why do you need to transform into a dragon?!"

Om-! !

A sonorous and powerful declaration came from the mouth of the white-haired young man who stood with his hands behind his back. For a moment, sword energy surged and sword intent soared into the sky, giving people a sense of being invincible.

"Haha, great! If you are already a real dragon, why do you need to transform into one?! No wonder... No wonder, tsk tsk, it turns out that 04296's evaluation is correct, it was the monster that made the late bloomer possible, not the late bloomer that made the monster possible!"

Snap, snap, snap...!!

Loud applause rang out. Yamu looked at the young man in white robe in front of him and laughed heartily. Xin Lailai's eyes in the cockpit were also full of surprise.

Just as Yamu said, based on the courage shown in this sentence alone, they can be sure that even if there is no so-called late bloomer, "Natural Chasm" Yan Yi is still an insurmountable chasm in that era.

"What a shame. If I had known he was such a person, I should have asked Quan Momo and the others to leave their contact information."

Xin Lailai glanced at the names on the communication list, thinking with some regret. At this moment, the somewhat cold voice of the Death Executioner suddenly came from the communication channel:
"Although you guys enjoyed chatting, unfortunately, now doesn't seem to be the time to chat."

The cold voice rang in the minds of the three people. Xin Lailai's pupils shrank slightly when he heard it. He looked forward decisively, and then his breathing subconsciously stagnated:
On the endless gray-white land, a pitch-black curtain suddenly emerged from the end of the sight, and it became clearer and clearer as everyone moved forward. On the surface of the curtain, a black liquid like a quagmire slowly flowed, giving people an inexplicable feeling of nausea and chills.

No explanation was needed. Everyone understood the situation after just one look at the scene in front of them:
We have arrived at the terminal.
