Su Ye directly opened his territory attribute panel.

Name: Unnamed

Level: Level 1

Area: 1,000 meters in diameter

Buildings: Dilapidated Lord Cabin

Barracks: Fallen Heaven Sanctuary (God)

Warehouse (100 square meters): None

Upgrade: Wood X100, Stone X100, Origin Crystal X10

I really am dirt poor, Su Ye thought as he looked at his territory panel attributes.

After thinking for a moment, he named it according to his talent: Supreme Heaven.

Then Su Ye opened his attribute panel.

Name: Su Ye

Level: Black Iron One-Star

Talent: Supreme Sovereign (Unique) (Talent Grades: Common, Excellent, Elite, Overlord, Monarch, Mythic, Unique!)

Territory: Supreme Heaven

Personal Space (Ten slots): 90 gold coins.

Lord Authority: Domination, Decomposition

Su Ye looked at his attribute panel without the slightest surprise. The personal space belonged to the lord's private storage space, while the territory warehouse belonged to the territory's storage space. The two were not the same thing.

Lord authority was an ability that every lord possessed, granting absolute domination over their territory. Simply put, his territory could transform into whatever shape he desired.

Decomposition was used to break down the corpses of attacking monsters, a special authority belonging to the lord. Of course, this authority could also be assigned to the hero units and common units under the lord's command.

As for whether or not to assign it, that was entirely up to the lord.

Su Ye looked at Lilith. As the first hero unit under his command, his early development relied entirely on Lilith. A point needed to be made here.

A lord's first recruitment was guaranteed to produce a hero unit. This was also considered welfare and support given by the Will of the Eternal World to novice lords, much like how recruitment during the novice period only cost 1 gold coin—both were implicit, unexpressed novice buffs.

[Ding: Detected that the lord has recruited troops. Open the Void Trial?]

The prompt tone sounded.

Su Ye looked at Lilith and the others. The Void Trial was the primary channel for novice lords to acquire resources, and naturally also the source of the greatest danger novice lords faced directly.

It occurred once a day, and when to open it depended entirely on the lord, though at most once a day. It would be fine even if one chose not to open the Void Trial.

However, that would mean missing one day's opportunity to acquire resources, completely depending on the lord themselves, with no compulsion involved.

"Lilith, have you all prepared for battle?" Su Ye asked, looking at Lilith and the others.

"Lord God Emperor, this concubine has long since prepared," Lilith replied with a smile, looking at Su Ye.

"Very well, system, open the Void Trial," Su Ye said in a deep voice.

[Ding: Please select the difficulty for the lord. The higher the difficulty, the richer the resources. Please choose with caution: Common, Difficult, Nightmare, Purgatory, Abyss!]

Su Ye looked at the five difficulty options before him. The higher the difficulty, the richer the resources—was there even a choice here? He was not a second-generation lord; without the support of high-tier lords, all he could do was rapidly complete his most primitive accumulation within the thirty days of the novice period.

At the very least, he needed to build his foundation a bit better.

If you can't find the book title, you can try searching for the author instead; maybe it just changed its name!

Many things were easily obtainable during the novice period, but became very difficult to get once it passed. The key lay in whether the novice lord possessed the courage and strength.

"Abyss!" Su Ye looked at the Abyss difficulty chosen by Lilith and the others. It wasn't as if no one had ever cleared the Abyss difficulty, and since Lilith and the others were God Level units, there was no reason to choose any other difficulty.

[Ding: Void Trial opened. Difficulty: Abyss. Battle begins in thirty seconds. Please prepare for battle, lord.]

The vault of heaven over Su Ye's territory turned blood-red, and the atmosphere grew oppressive.

"Lilith, I'll trouble you all," Su Ye said, looking at Lilith with a serious expression.

"Please rest assured, Lord Lord. Just leave it to us," a trace of blood-red appeared in Lilith's eyes as a giant war scythe materialized in her hands.

The other Original Sin Fallen Angels also conjured their own divine artifacts in their hands.

The thirty seconds of preparation time quietly slipped away.

Space-time surged around Su Ye's territory, and ferocious lesser demons walked out from within.

These lesser demons were everywhere, coming from all directions.

Su Ye checked their attributes.

Name: Abyssal Imp

Rank: Third Rank

Level: Black Iron Five-Star to Eight-Star

Su Ye watched the lesser demons swarming in from all directions. "Is this the Abyss difficulty? There are Black Iron Five-Star up to Black Iron-Eight Star ones, and their rank is still at the strength of Third Rank troops. It's simply absurd."

The troop ranks of novice lords varied from high to low, but their levels were all Black Iron One-Star, with nine sub-levels existing between each rank.

"This is really cranking up the difficulty," Su Ye muttered, watching those lesser demons. With a trace of anticipation in his heart, he looked toward Lilith and the others. According to existing data, the biggest gap between troops wasn't level, but rank.

Rank was an innate advantage, while level could be made up for later.

A trace of madness appeared in Lilith's beautiful eyes, and black flames emerged on the giant scythe in her hand as she swung it.

A massive crescent slash directly erupted.

Where it passed, the lesser demons were shattered, transforming into the purest origin to be absorbed by Lilith.

This was the method by which troops increased their level.

The other Original Sin Fallen Angels also sprang into action.

Those fiercely aggressive and numerous lesser demons were harvested like grass in front of Lilith and the others.

"Are these God Level troops? I'm in love," Su Ye said, watching the performance of Lilith and the others.

Without even using skills, they were simply harvesting using their weapons and physical stats. The gap between them was readily apparent.

"It looks like I underestimated God Level troops, or rather, no novice lord in this world has probably ever acquired God Level troops yet." Su Ye couldn't help but smile.

The duration of the Void Trial increased based on the difficulty. The Common difficulty only had one wave, Difficult had five waves, Nightmare had ten waves of incoming enemies, and Purgatory began to ramp up the intensity, no longer coming in waves but continuously persisting for half an hour.

The Abyss difficulty, on the other hand, persisted continuously for a full hour.

The difficulty of this can be imagined.

This data was all public knowledge, and people had cleared the Abyss difficulty before, but those attempts were only made during the last ten days or even the final five days of the novice period.

After all, only after accumulating for more than twenty days would they try the Abyss difficulty to complete the final wave of accumulation during the novice period.

However, besides Su Ye, no one started Abyss difficulty on the very first day; everyone chose to play it safe, developing first before considering anything else.

Su Ye sat cross-legged on the ground and opened the system interface, which featured five modules: the chat module, live streaming module, trading module, private chat module, and system log.

A bizarre scene unfolded within Su Ye's territory.

On one side, ten goddess-level entities continuously slaughtered and butchered, with severed limbs everywhere and heavy bloodstains, while on the other side, time flowed quietly and leisurely.

If you think this book is good, remember to add it to your bookshelf to avoid not being able to find it next time!
