[Server-wide announcement: Congratulations to player Lin An for becoming the first Immortal Realm expert in the entire server! We hereby announce this and encourage other players to continue their efforts!] x3
Three consecutive server-wide announcements caused all players to stop what they were doing.
"He's reached the Immortal Realm! I knew that all those server-wide announcements he made lately were for the purpose of breaking through to the Immortal Realm."
"However, breaking through to the Immortal Realm is quite difficult; even Boss Lin An took this long."
"We're still far from the Immortal Realm. Most of us are only Platinum right now, and Diamond Realm is considered strong. As for the Epic Realm and Legendary Realm, those are the nation's top combat power."
"Our Great Xia now has Mythic Realm expert, putting us ahead of other countries."
"..."
While everyone was surprised by Lin An's breakthrough to the Immortal Realm, they weren't entirely unexpected.
After all, Lin An's cultivation level has always been ahead of theirs, and even if his cultivation level is higher than theirs, his breakthrough speed is still no slower than theirs.
At the same time, within the Supreme Peace Empire, Lin Xiao also received news that Lin An had broken through to the Immortal Realm.
"Haha, very good, very good, my son is indeed extraordinary."
Lin Xiao was overjoyed and then announced a nationwide celebration, bestowing upon the nation a great deal of resources.
At this moment, Lin An also left the Land of Rules and returned to the Sin Banquet Secret Realm.
Although Jialuo Moye has been annihilated, there are still half a month before the Sin Banquet Secret Realm closes.
"Thankfully, you're alright."
After Lin An appeared in the secret realm, he quickly located Qin Shao and the others with a thought.
The group was floating in a void. Under the protection of the Star Guardian Wheel, Heaven and Earth Supreme Treasure, they were not injured, but they were still unconscious.
Lin An brought everyone back to the secret realm from the void, and then gave them pills, after which they slowly woke up.
"What happened? We seem to have been struck by a powerful force and have fallen unconscious."
When everyone woke up, they looked around in confusion while checking their own condition.
"It seems you are all alright," Lin An said with a smile.
"Brother Lin? What exactly happened?"
Qin Shao was speaking when he suddenly paused, looking at Lin An in surprise, "Brother Lin, you've broken through to the Immortal Realm?"
Everyone else also turned their attention to him. Lin An did not hide his cultivation level, and they found that Lin An had indeed reached the Immortal Realm.
This made them even more confused. What had happened while they were unconscious? How could Lin An have broken through to the Immortal?
"Gentlemen, that day, Jialuo Moye a sudden attack..."
Lin An immediately told everyone the general situation, and everyone was shocked and filled with lingering fear.
The powerful being of the Eternal Realm actually attacked them. Luckily, they weren't the opponent's primary target, otherwise they wouldn't be alive now.
"Thank you, Brother Lin. Otherwise, we would probably already be dead."
"You flatter me. In truth, it is I who have implicated you all; otherwise, you would not have suffered such a calamity."
After exchanging pleasantries, neither of them intended to inquire about the details.
"This trip to the Sin Banquet Secret Realm has brought many joyous events. So many Sin Beast have been slain, ensuring the Domain's safety for the next hundred years."
Wang Qinyue smiled and said, "Brother Lin has dealt with the Eternal Realm Jialuo Moye, and has also successfully broken through to Immortal. After the secret realm ends, we shall have a grand feast."
Everyone nodded with smiles; the gains from this trip to the Sin Banquet Secret Realm were unprecedented.
"The only pity is those Sin Beast corpses; they were ruined by Jialuo Moye," Xu Taosheng said helplessly.
With so many corpses of Sin Beast, including tens of thousands of corpses of the Immortal Realm Sin Beast, how many pills could be refined from them, and how many Immortal Rank divine weapons could be forged?
"We need to learn to be content; we've already gained quite a lot."
Qin Shao laughed and said, "Besides, without Brother Lin, we wouldn't have been able to kill so many Sin Beast."
"Old Qin is right. I think the Sin Banquet Secret Realm will be closed for another half month, so we might as well hurry up and look for some rare and precious materials," Zhou Chang said.
Everyone's eyes lit up. Now that the Sin Beast in the secret realm were almost all dead or wounded, with their Immortal Realm strength, wouldn't they be able to easily plunder those rare treasures?
Moreover, with Heavenly Diviner Zhou Chang, finding rare and precious materials is an easy task.
"Everyone, please go ahead. I need to consolidate my cultivation level," Lin An said.
He has no shortage of rare and precious materials, and even if these people find rare and precious materials, they will eventually have to hand them over to him for refining.
Without further ado, everyone chose a direction and quickly disappeared.
Lin An sat down cross-legged and looked at the event store.
He currently has a total of 2.314 trillion activity points.
"Let's buy the Treasure Upgrade Card first, and upgrade both the Anchor of Space-Time and the Spirit-Devouring Ring to the level of Heaven and Earth Supreme Treasure."
Thinking about it, Lin An searched through the mall.
It has been discovered that upgrading a Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasure to Heaven and Earth Supreme Treasure requires approximately 150 billion activity points, and two would require 300 billion activity points.
Lin An didn't hesitate and bought it immediately.
[You have used the Heaven and Earth Supreme Treasure Promotion Card; your treasure, the Anchor of Space-Time, is being upgraded.]
[You have used the Heaven and Earth Supreme Treasure Promotion Card; your Soul Spirit-Devouring Ring is now being upgraded.]
As the two treasures emitted a dazzling light, their aura also rapidly increased.
"Looks like I'll need to wait a while before considering a promotion, and see what else I can buy."
Lin An continued browsing the mall.
"I still need to buy a life-saving item, especially one that can protect me from the clutches of Eternal being."
[You spent 300 billion event points to purchase the Mirror of Oblivion.]
[ Mirror of Oblivion ]: A special item that, when used on a target, will cause the target to fall into a brief three-second dazed state, which even the Eternal Realm cannot resist. It can be used a maximum of three times, after which it will shatter.
Although three seconds of control isn't much, it can still be effective against the Eternal Realm experts and could create an opportunity for Lin An to escape.
Of course, the store also has treasures that can directly kill those in the Eternal Realm, but they are extremely expensive.
Starting at a hundred trillion points, Lin An can't afford it.
"There are also those selling Heaven and Earth Rules Token, buy those too."
Although he might not be able to use the Heaven and Earth Rules Token anymore, he would still need to have one if he ever needed to.
Moreover, the price isn't expensive; it only costs one billion event points.
"There are 171.3 million event points remaining."
Lin An's gaze fell on the area of talent.
There is only one talent on it.
[ Fate Tribulation ]: A special talent that can be equipped after overcoming Fate Tribulation. When the target's realm is no lower than yours and they harbor murderous intent towards you, the target will be defined as your Fate Tribulation. The stronger the enemy's murderous intent towards you, the stronger the temporary combat power boost you can obtain.
When you successfully defeat your Fate Tribulation, you will receive a Fate Tribulation Mark. Each Fate Tribulation Mark will permanently increase your combat power by 1%.
