After chatting with his grandfather for a while, Lin An left the main hall, carrying a map with him.
This map marks some terrain and environment outside Heavenly Vault Pass, but it looks quite old and can only be used as a reference.
After leaving the main hall, Lin An did not rush to head to the depths of the Sin Abyss.
Instead, they entered the treasure vault.
First, he arrived at the area of the visualization diagram. Now he can raise eight Divine Ability to their limit. Since he is going to go deep into the Sin Abyss, he naturally wants to increase his means as much as possible.
Lin An selected eight visualization diagrams and immediately began to study them, allocating attribute points to them.
[You have successfully comprehended this power and gained a new Divine Ability: World-Burning Lotus.]
[You have successfully comprehended this power and gained a new Divine Ability: Dragon's Roar and Nine Chants.]
[You have successfully comprehended the technique and gained a new Divine Ability: the Mountain-Suppressing Seal.]
[...]
As a series of notification sounds rang out, Lin An quickly acquired eight new Divine Ability.
There are four offensive Divine Ability: World-Burning Lotus, Mountain-Suppressing Seal, Spatial Cutting, and Light of Annihilation.
One defensive Divine Ability, called Light of Protection, can enhance one's defense while also removing negative status effects.
There are two control-type Divine Ability. One is the Dragon's Roar and Nine Chants, which is a kind of sound wave control Divine Ability that can cause mental shock to the target.
There is also a technique called Thousand-Vine Bind, which can directly entangle and control the target.
Finally, there is a speed-enhancing Divine Ability called "Momentary Splendor," which allows for a burst of rapid speed in a short period of time.
Looking at these eight Divine Ability, Lin An didn't stand on ceremony and immediately began using the Divine Ability Upgrade Stone.
[Your Divine Ability Momentary Splendor, has reached its peak.]
[Your Divine Ability, Dragon's Roar and Nine Chants, has been upgraded to its maximum.]
[Your Divine Ability, the World-Burning Lotus, has been upgraded to its ultimate level.]
[...]
It took a total of 544 Divine Ability Upgrade Stone to upgrade all eight Divine Ability to their maximum level.
This left him with only 7 Divine Ability Upgrade Stone left.
After his Divine Ability were enhanced, Lin An took away some rare and precious materials, planning to spend a week refining some Mythic Rank pills.
The Heavenly Vault Army had a very difficult past. Although they had Mythic Rank alchemists, they simply couldn't keep up with the demand.
Therefore, Lin An specially summoned three Mythic Rank alchemists from the Heavenly Vault Army to assist him, but in reality, he also intended to offer them some guidance.
The three Mythic Rank alchemists were naturally overjoyed to hear this, as the opportunity to be personally instructed by King Rank alchemist was extremely precious.
The only thing that Lin An regretted was that he didn't have King Rank alchemy furnace.
Although he killed the Seventh Elder, the elder did not take his alchemy furnace with him; it must have been placed in the royal palace.
As for refining King Rank pill furnace himself, Lin An could do that, but since he was only refining Mythic Rank pills, there was no need for such trouble.
Time flies, and a week has passed in the blink of an eye.
Through Lin An's tireless efforts day and night, one Mythic Rank pill after another was refined.
He is now at the King Realm Seventh Grade, and refining Mythic Rank pills is extremely easy for him; he can refine 3,000 pills in one batch.
After a week of refining, more than 500,000 Mythic Rank pills were produced, completely consuming all the spiritual herbs that the Heavenly Vault Army had stored up over the years.
"So many Mythic Rank pills are enough to greatly increase the strength of the Heavenly Vault Army," Lin An thought to himself.
Lin An then handed these pills to Li Yunshan, Li Yunshan was also shocked to see so many Mythic Rank pills.
When do you plan to leave?
Li Yunshan took a deep breath, knowing that since Lin An had refined so many pills, it meant he was preparing to set off.
"Let's do it first thing tomorrow morning," Lin An said.
"Good."
Li Yunshan nodded and did not try to dissuade him. Although Lin An's cultivation level was one grade lower than his, he estimated that he was no match for Lin An.
That evening, Lin An called Zheng Tang over, who was now in charge of his team for farming attribute points.
Thanks to the team's efforts, Lin An's attribute points have now increased to 1.7 billion.
There were many, but in Lin An's opinion, it wasn't enough.
Because upgrading a King Rank sub-profession to the Sovereign Rank requires 300 million attribute points, and he has 13 sub-professions, that's equivalent to needing 3.9 billion attribute points.
"It's already March. I'll strive to break through to the King Realm Ninth Grade within six months."
"When the two realms are connected, we can participate in the Sin Beast Invasion event and exchange for the Sovereign Rank secondary profession upgrade card."
Lin An thought for a moment, then looked at Zheng Tang and gave him ten more puppet squads.
Moreover, all of these puppets are Mythic Rank; he created them incidentally while refining pills.
Then he gave some more instructions, which boiled down to three words: Don't stop!
Zheng Tang naturally accepted the order and took the matter very seriously.
The next morning, Lin An only glanced at the main hall where his maternal grandfather Li Yunshan, was before leaving Heavenly Vault Pass.
Li Yunshan felt something and watched Lin An leave.
Upon leaving Heavenly Vault Pass, Lin An immediately felt a chilling aura wash over him, but it had no effect on him, King Realm cultivator.
Taking out the map his grandfather had given him, Lin An confirmed the direction and headed towards the depths of the Sin Abyss.
As King Realm expert, his speed is naturally extremely fast.
"It's been half a year, and the Sin Beast around here are still so scarce."
Lin An looked down at the ground; he had encountered some Sin Beast along the way.
However, their numbers were not large, and their strength was not great, which was very different from the impression of countless Sin Beast everywhere.
The reason for this is naturally due to the great battle at Heavenly Vault Pass six months ago, which resulted in the death of 99% of the Sin Beast in this area.
Lin An continued to venture deeper, and as he encountered more and more Sin Beast, he knew he was getting further and further away from the Heavenly Vault Pass.
Unfortunately, we haven't encountered any King Realm Sin Beast yet.
He even captured some Sin Beast and tortured them, but unfortunately this area was unclaimed land, which also meant that there were no King Realm Sin Beast guarding it.
Lin An wasn't in a hurry; as he continued to delve deeper, he would eventually encounter King Realm Sin Beast.
As Lin An continued to venture deeper, three figures emerged from the depths of the Abyss of Sin Abyss, each exuding the aura of King Realm Eighth Grade.
"I never imagined the three of us would one day be gathered together," one of the figures said with a smile.
"It's all because that Annihilation Sword Baron was too useless; he was actually killed."
"It's best not to say that. That Annihilation Sword Baron has a Venerable One behind him."
"Alright, let's hurry to Heavenly Vault Pass. Our mission is to break through Heavenly Vault Pass and draw the support of the Heavenly Revelation Empire's royal family, thereby weakening the Human Race forces on the Imperial Pass."
"I heard that three more Ninth-Grade Venerable escaped from the Land of Mist recently. It seems they're planning a major attack on the Human Race."
"..."
As the three-headed King Realm Eighth Grade Sin Beast spoke, a large number of Sin Beast below were also rushing towards the direction of Heavenly Vault Pass.
