Chapter 522: Chapter 522: Divine Artifact—Du Longer’s Titan Sword
The remaining two leaders were a strong man with dragon horns atop his head and an old mage clutching a crystal wand. As they faced each other, the Dragon Clan warrior said, “The ten-year term has co to an end, the four guilds—ah, spit!”
Lin Xiao sat on the observation deck of Lightning Tower, holding a bottle of fruit juice wine in his hand, watching the occasional lightning strikes in the distance with a hint of sentint.
It had been ten years since he descended into this world, and finally, the Outland had opened.
Over his ten-year leveling career, he had visited most parts of this world, especially after reaching Level 60 and learning teleportation spells. He not only went to the Eastern Continent to et up with his girlfriend but also took ti to visit other parts of this plane, gaining a general understanding of this plane.
The condition of this plane bore a striking resemblance to the legendary Azeroth; he highly suspected that the big shot had once visited the Titan Crystal Wall System where Azeroth was located.
However, it was just exceedingly similar, rely an imitation; this plane and Azeroth were very different.
Firstly, inside the planet, there was no Azeroth Star Soul, no Well of Eternity, and no ancient gods, but there were rumors of Titans.
Star Soul Crystal Wall System!
Lin Xiao guessed that this Crystal Wall System might have the conditions to birth a Star Soul, perhaps the Titan of Creation was indeed one of those two big shots.
In the last year or two, while leveling up, he had tried to track down the traces of the ancient Titans. He found so traces of them in places with legends, but the era was too ancient, and the traces had long since vanished with ti; he found nothing of value.
Later, he confird that this plane was just a rough imitation of Azeroth, seemingly similar on the surface, with many secrets completely absent.
After exploring almost seven-eighths of the world, Lin Xiao gave up on his search and focused on leveling up.
A level of 68 in this plane was considered extrely powerful. To know that a pure-blooded true Dragon was only about Level 80 or so, this sufficiently illustrated the height of his level.
Of course, even though the Dragons’ levels were not much higher than his, they had the Overlord Template, also commonly known as the BOSS. Even if he truly reached Level 80, he wouldn’t be able to defeat them unless he could elevate his own template.
Indeed, players could also upgrade their templates, from the initial standard template, to Elite Template through a special ceremony, and finally to Hero Template.
However, these template upgrades had not yet been opened. They would only beco available after entering the Outland through the Gate of Other World, and they required extrely stringent conditions.
Unfortunately, in the later stages, there were no places in this plane with a large number of monsters at level 60 or 70 for him to farm indefinitely. Even the few powerful instances had cooldowns, preventing infinite farming. Otherwise, he would definitely have fard to the level cap of Level 70 for his race.
Speaking of this, those players who chose non-mainstream and opted for strange races might now be weeping. The level caps for the lower races they chose, such as Kobolds, Goblins, Hyenan, and even Fishn, were all between 40 and 50 levels. No matter how hard they worked, they could not level up to keep up with other mainstream players.
But nothing is absolute. While most non-mainstream players had a hard ti, so players changed their destiny by relying on their race’s Talents and characteristics. The Talents of these low-ranking non-mainstream races had a miraculous effect in certain aspects.
For instance, the Fishman Race inherently had neutral reputation with Fishn in the wild and would not be actively attacked by wild Fishn. They could also accept quests from larger Fish people tribes to improve their reputation and gain so benefits.
The most famous was a Fishman player nad “Fish Life With You,” who discovered a super large Fishman community in the Sea of Mist. He spent several years grinding reputation like crazy and eventually reached Exalted reputation.
As a result, he beca the first player to grind a minor race’s reputation to Exalted and gained huge benefits.
A set of Fishman-exclusive Epic gear with attributes that could rival a T2-level suit.
Exclusive Fishman Priest and Magician professions, though with fewer Skills, were very powerful. Most importantly, they do not conflict with the player’s own profession, allowing for a dual class, which is quite formidable.
So extrely rare treasures, it is said that the player is now working hard for a Fishman clan’s treasured Orange Legend Divine Artifact, though it’s uncertain when he will get his hands on it.
He could hire a small squad of ten Level 45 elite Fishn to fight and level up for him, and the hired Fishn could be trained and leveled up. The player could assign them to beco warriors or Magician Priests, acquire NPC-specific equipnt to enhance their strength, and so forth.
Imagine how enjoyable it would be for a player to have ten Level 45 elite minions that could level up and fight alongside him. Although the world was gaified, it wasn’t a real ga; controlling pets or subordinates was done through direct verbal commands instead of a few rigid instructions, much more flexible than ancient gas.
So this pioneering Fishman player has long since exceeded the level cap of 45 for Fishn and is now Level 51.
Ten elite Fishman minions had died a few tis, and now there were seven left, all Level 50. Each was equipped with a set of fine-quality NPC-specific gear, extrely impressive, the stars of the Fishman kind.
This made other players extrely envious. Many non-mainstream races followed suit, such as Kobolds running to Kobold tribes and Goblins grinding Goblin reputation, truly erging with distinct differences.
The most morable for Lin Xiao was two Pandaren, each unlocking the reputation of the mutual enemy bear tribes, the Throat Bearn and Deadwood Bearn. These two tribes were very powerful, with a minimum level of 55 and above.
The reputation was supposed to be hard to grind, but the duo decided to cooperate and started training by recklessly offering their heads to each other. After countless deaths, they managed to raise their reputation. Although they have not yet reached the exalted status, they are now revered and have already gained a lot of benefits.
After all, the Pandaren are much stronger than the Fishman Race and have more value to cultivate.
All of this made Lin Xiao envious, but the race he chose was the Star Spirit, which is truly unique in this world; he could find no place to grind race reputation.
Luckily, the Gate of Other World was about to open, or rather, was in the process of opening.
Players didn’t need to participate; Once a decade passed, NPCs would discover an Alien World. Many players who were grinding reputation among the major forces sensed this developnt, with a small number of elite players taking part.
Although Lin Xiao’s reputation in the Human Camp reached revered status, he did not participate; he simply waited in silence for the opening of the Gate of Other World.
The long wait finally ended one day when suddenly a screen popped up in front of all players, and an ancient, massive door slowly opened. A continuous stream of Demons poured out from within, and he naturally realized that the Gate of Other World had opened.
“Brave warriors, the Gate of Other World has opened. It’s ti to establish your feats.”
After the customary announcent ca the focus of the descent:
“The Gate of Other World is officially open, and all Descenders over Level 50 must enter the Outland.”
“Open Gaia Main World reputation!”
“Open the Native prestige system of Outland!”
“Open The Legion Fortress System!”
“Earn honors by slaying the Children of Nightmare!”
“For more details, please head to the Outlands for personal exploration!”
A series of prompts flashed across the screen, and Lin Xiao cald his mind to slowly review each notification to ensure he didn’t miss anything.
The gate to the Outlands was located in the Land of Curse, originally a leveling spot for those around Level 50. Filled with Undead Beings above Level 50. When Lin Xiao and his girlfriend’s guild mbers, all over Level 50, arrived at the Land of Curse, they were greeted by the sight of most of the land transford into a huge Fortress. Countless elite soldiers above Level 55, hailing from races such as Humans, Orcs, Elves, etc., were gathered, eradicating the Demon Beings pouring out of the Gate of Other World.
He looked up towards the distance to see a massive green beam of light shooting into the sky, spreading layer by layer, blocking the sunlight and casting a gloom over the world.
This Gate of Other World was situated in a vast basin over ten kiloters in diater, surrounded by six towering towers, each two to three hundred ters high. The tops of the towers shot out imnse beams of light that combined into a giant net of light covering the entire basin, preventing any flying devil from escaping the Outlands.
At that mont, they couldn’t enter the gate; they had to wait for NPCs to clear these Devils, then send in a powerful force to establish an Outpost Base.
They received several quests to defeat enemies from the overall quartermaster, forming a large team that entered the basin.
The warriors held shields in formation, while behind them a dozen Mages cast Blizzard and Rain of Fire. Blizzard is the range Spell of Ice Magic Specialization, and Rain of Fire is the range Spell of Fire Magic Specialization, similar to Lin Xiao’s Thundercloud.
But their damage was far inferior to his, and both their casting distance and Spell coverage were a big level lower. He summoned a trendous Thundercloud far into the midst of the Demons, instantly sending hundreds of lightnings crashing down with damage numbers soaring all around.
These Demons were at least Level 55, with health ranging around three to four thousand, and many were elites with health of eleven to twelve thousand.
With various equipnt and Talent bonuses, plus an added two hundred percent, a fifteen-second Thundercloud could deal over ten thousand total damage to each target. Coupled with his Level 68 suppressive advantage over enemies around Level 55, one round was enough to kill all standard Demons in range, leaving Elite Demons heavily wounded or barely alive.
It’s a pity that Lightning Spells excel in high damage bursts without slow effects, and his profession Talent didn’t include slowing. If he had the slowing effects of Ice Magic, none of these Demons could escape.
Standard enemies at Level 55 offered no experience, while elites provided several dozen points. Still, for the team mbers averaging over Level 50, this experience was gratifying.
Opening the door took a whole month and a half, during which NPCs several tis organized powerful forces and a large number of elite soldiers to penetrate the gate only to be pushed back, suffering losses and casualties. Several well-known over-level 70, Overlord Level Big Bosses died during this period.
In such plot-oriented quests, once dead, they are truly dead, never to respawn again.
During this ti, Lin Xiao had one chance to follow a group into the gate. As soon as he entered, he felt the wild energy of the Void. What he saw was a vast expanse-
