I, the Necromancer, will crush the gods!

Chapter 404 The Lonely Spirit, My Master Takes Me Away

Jiang Chen pushed aside the fog before his eyes and finally saw the true scene.

Everything seemed to be making sense.

Looking back at the great battle that once took place in the "Creation Realm," now the "Corpse Realm," the Creation Scepter was clearly the main protagonist.

The god of life has fallen, leaving behind only the scepter of creation.

For the gods, obtaining this scepter and the opportunity to become the new god of life was an infinitely great temptation.

Similarly, human professionals also yearn for the Creation Staff. By studying the power of higher deities, they have the opportunity to ascend to the level of transcendent gods and become transcendent-god level powerhouses. The allure of transcendent-god level is equally powerful for human god-level professionals.

Demons and dragons, for similar reasons, yearn to evolve and become more powerful.

An earth-shattering war involving four parties erupted in the former "Creation World".

Countless powerful individuals joined the fray, engaging in fierce battles for the Scepter of Creation.

The war nearly destroyed the entire "Creation Realm." To stop the war, the last god sacrificed himself, using forbidden skills to transform the "Creation Realm" into the Corpse Realm it is today.

During the great war, many powerful figures from the four races were buried in the Corpse Realm and turned into corpses.

The Scepter of Creation was also severely damaged in this battle.

The handle of the Creation Scepter merged into the Creation Lightning of the "Corpse Realm," becoming the last hope. As for the most important part of the Creation Scepter, the "Life Core," it has vanished without a trace.

Jiang Chen looked at the murals one by one, and up to this point, these records completely matched his understanding of the situation.

Next, the mural begins to depict the part about the "core of life" after its departure.

“This…” Jiang Chen looked at the mural and suddenly felt a sense of horror.

In the mural, the "core of life" travels through time and space to a mysterious place.

This place seems like nothingness, yet the "core of life" floats here.

Then a giant hand appeared and reached for the "life core".

The "life core," which remained undamaged even during the great battle, was incredibly fragile in the face of the giant hand.

It was like a toy that could be crushed.

The "Core of Life" exploded, collapsing space. Countless fragments scattered outwards, and one beam of light once again traversed space and time, landing in the human world, on an island.

Later, powerful human beings discovered the anomaly of this island and established the Genesis Academy on it.

Seeing this, I can once again connect it with the scene I saw when picking the "first fruit".

This light is the most crucial energy in the "core of life".

Those shattered outer shells are the substances that make up the "core of life," they are the containers.

Only when the two are combined can they form the complete "core of life" and the complete scepter of creation.

This light contains boundless life force.

It brought vitality to the ancestral land, but the vitality was too strong, which resulted in the ancestral land losing its life.

The animals and beasts we see and feel, every blade of grass and every tree, are actually composed of the divine power of life. The only living beings in the ancestral land are the spirits of life.

It was here when the 'light' descended, and then, influenced by the divine power of life, it has lived until now, becoming what it is today.

It was also because of the power of life that it became a servant of the god of life.

Jiang Chen holds the Scepter of Creation, which represents the authority of the God of Life.

Regardless of whether Jiang Chen is the God of Life or not, since he holds power as if a god has personally descended, Jiang Chen has become the master of the spirits of life.

The significance of the life spirits here is to find new successors for the 'light'.

But so many years have passed, and no one has been able to meet the requirements of 'light' until Jiang Chen appeared.

Jiang Chen shook his head slightly; he had never considered becoming the God of Life.

He is human, and it is impossible for him to become a god; the two have completely different goals. If Jiang Chen wants to repair the Creation Scepter, he needs to find the fragments scattered in various places after the Life Core shattered.

The piece that Jiang Ruo brought earlier, smaller than a fingernail and practically a shard, was one of the fragments of the life core.

Over the years, the Life Spirit has acquired a considerable number of fragments through this trading method.

It was thanks to it that the Scepter of Creation was able to be restored to its damaged state.

Jiang Chen thought of the giant hand that reached out from the void, which easily crushed the life core.

One can only imagine how sturdy the core of a mythical weapon is, yet he still managed to crush it with ease.

Jiang Chen couldn't imagine what kind of being owned the giant hand.

I had just lifted a corner of the fog, only to discover even more mysteries.

He sighed softly and looked at the Life Spirit, "You can't leave the ancestral land, can you?"

The Life Spirit nodded. "My existence requires the illumination of the Life God's power."

Its existence is closely related to the core of life.

The primal power within the core of life is now in the ancestral land, and the life spirits are also confined here.

Jiang Chen needs to reach level 90 and be able to use the Creation Scepter before he can use the power of life to make the life spirit leave this place.

Jiang Chen understood this, "What are these assessments all about? Where did those stone tablets come from?"

Neither the image of the "first fruit" nor the murals in front of us mention the stone tablet they used during their assessment.

Jiang Chen was also certain that the stone tablet was not the work of a life spirit.

Because the characters above are completely different from the characters in this world, and are closer to the ancient Chinese characters.

The spirit of life shook its head. "This humble servant does not know either. They have existed since this humble servant has memories."

It seems we won't get anything out of him.

The Life Spirit led Jiang Chen on a tour of the ancestral land.

The Ancestral Land is actually a secret realm, located in an independent space, with its entrance and exit on the island where the Academy of Creation is situated.

There was nothing inside except for a series of rigorous tests.

Just as Jiang Chen was about to leave, the Life Spirit stared at him intently, "Master, if you are able to control the power of life in the future, could you take me with you?"

Jiang Chen readily agreed, "Okay."

Joy appeared in the life spirit's eyes. "Thank you, Master."

It has lived here for too long, and has been lonely for too long.

Although the divine power of life granted it a long life, it also gave it endless loneliness.

The spirit of life possesses self-awareness, and he also wants to see the outside world.

Outside of their ancestral homeland, most of the people have already left.

Now only Yi Qianfan, Lin Zhenzi, Lin Cai'er, and Yi Ning remain.

Lin Cai'er was a little worried, "So much time has passed, why hasn't Jiang Chen come out yet?"

Yi Ning held Lin Cai'er's small hand, "Don't worry, he'll be fine."

Lin Zhenzi snorted, "This kid's life is tougher than a turtle's. He can even come back from the Corpse Realm, let alone the ancestral land."

Yi Qianjue also said with a smile, "Don't worry, as long as there is no indiscriminate killing of animals, there will be no danger in the ancestral land."

Half a day had passed since Lin Cai'er came out.

Even if there are still assessments to come, it should be almost over by now.

Finally, after several hours, a faint spatial ripple spread out.

The entrance to the ancestral land was also closed.

As soon as Jiang Chen teleported out, a soft, warm body rushed into his arms.

A familiar scent filled his nostrils, and Jiang Chen gently hugged Lin Cai'er. "What's wrong?"

Lin Cai'er rubbed against his chest without saying anything.

Lin Zhenzi asked, "How is Jiang Chen doing?"

Jiang Chen knew what he was asking, "I guess you could say you got it!"

Lin Zhenzi was asking about that 'light,' which was actually the divine power of life.

Jiang Chen has finally gotten what he wanted.

"How much have the attributes increased?"

Jiang Chen checked his attributes and realized he already knew they had significantly improved while in the ancestral land. Therefore, he wasn't particularly surprised and simply said calmly.

"Strength, agility, and spirit each increased by 16000, and physique increased by 32000."

"Vitality increased by 50%".

He spoke calmly, but Lin Zhenzi and Yi Qianfan both showed expressions of shock.

Lin Zhenzi said, "With your attributes... you're going to fly to the sky."

Yi Qianfan also spoke up, "Your attributes are probably more than double those of other professionals of the same level."

Double?

That's seriously underestimating Jiang Chen.

Lin Zhenzi knew some of the inside story and what Jiang Chen had gone through during his second transformation.

Although he didn't know the exact level of Jiang Chen's attributes, he was certain that Jiang Chen's attributes were far more than just twice as high as those of other professionals of the same level.

Yi Ning walked over and said to Jiang Chen, "Congratulations! You've completely broken through your limits. The probability of your profession evolving during the third job advancement has increased significantly."

The more attributes you break through the limits of, the higher the probability of job advancement during the third job change.

Jiang Chen said softly, "You too."

Lin Cai'er raised her head and said to Yi Ning, "Sister Ning, you'll definitely be able to achieve a professional advancement when you reach the third job advancement."
