Novel Full Chapter 365: Crazy Power-Up! Peak Great Venerable!
[Ding! Successfully spent 500 million experience points!]
[You have gained a total of 21,000 points in the four main attributes!]
[Soul Strength +30!]
The result was insanely good!
Aiden had made the right bet.
The more experience points he spent in a single draw, the higher the chance of gaining soul strength.
Looking at the experience pool, which still had more than 3 billion experience points left, Aiden slowly stood up.
He walked to the center of the VIP room, spread his arms, and raised his head.
There was a wild, fearless look in his eyes, as if he looked down on the entire world.
Gods?
Demon Gods?
If he wanted to crush those mighty rulers of the Abyss under his feet in the coming battle to defend the Golden Great Wall, he had to break past the natural growth limit of human Reclassers.
“System…”
Aiden’s voice was low, like thunder rolling up from the Nether Abyss.
But within that voice was a madness proud enough to tear the sky apart.
“Take the remaining 3 billion experience points…”
“And spend it all at once!”
Boom——!!!!
The moment Aiden finished speaking, it was as if the entire world fell silent.
A blinding pillar of pure white light burst out from inside his body.
It was like the first ray of divine light at the creation of the world.
The solid floor, made from high-grade magic-blocking obsidian, cracked inch by inch under the unstoppable force.
It broke apart as easily as tofu.
On the walls, hundreds and thousands of master-level defensive magic arrays flashed wildly like broken light bulbs.
They let out sharp, strained cries, as if they could no longer hold on.
“An enemy attack?!”
Outside the door, Luke, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly stood up in shock from the terrifying tremor.
He gripped the heavy cross in his hand.The full aura of a level 79 tyrant burst out without restraint.His sharp eyes locked onto the reinforced steel door in front of him, which was shaking violently.
But in the next second, his expression completely changed.
The faint aura leaking through the crack of the door was not the evil presence of the Abyss at all.
It was a natural pressure that a higher life-form had over a lower life-form.
That feeling was like an ant looking up at the endless starry sky.
At this moment, inside the VIP room, Aiden was completely wrapped in a white cocoon of light.
The system notification panel was refreshing at a speed too fast for the naked eye to follow, with blood-red pop-ups appearing one after another.
[Ding! Successfully spent 3 billion experience points!]
[Extreme tempering has begun…]
[Congratulations, host. You have gained a total of 112,000 points in the four main attributes!]
[Ding! Your soul sea is expanding rapidly…]
[Congratulations, host. Soul Strength has increased with a critical boost: +400!!!]
[Warning! A qualitative leap in the host’s Soul Strength has been detected!]
[Your Soul Strength has crossed the Venerable barrier and reached: Peak Great Venerable!]
[Notice: The host is only one final step away from completing soul ascension and touching the threshold of godhood!]
As the light and storm slowly died down, Aiden stood quietly in place.
His entire presence had changed completely.
If the old him had been like an unsheathed sword, sharp, deadly, and full of killing intent.
Then the current him was like a bottomless black hole in the universe.
All of his sharpness and aura had been perfectly drawn back into his body by his vast soul power.
Aiden slowly opened his eyes.He felt that the entire world before him had changed.
Even without trying to extend his senses, he could clearly see everything within a radius of ten miles.He could sense the magic waves of every passerby.He could see the life flame of every bird in the sky.
He could even track the movement of tiny elemental particles floating in the air, particles so small they were nearly at the nanometer level.
This was the microscopic perception that only someone at the peak of Great Venerable could possess!
Aiden lowered his head and glanced at his newest status panel.
It was so impressive that it almost took his breath away.
Total four main attributes: a full 235,000 points!
Soul Strength: 890 points!Peak Great Venerable!
What did that mean?
It meant that Aiden, who was only level 80, already crushed most level 90 Venerable veterans in both basic stats and soul foundation.These were old monsters who had fought on battlefields for hundreds of years.
The only thing he had not yet begun to understand was that vague and mysterious Force of Laws.Other than that, he was already a demigod wearing the disguise of a Legendary Rank Magic Apprentice.
Creak—
The heavy reinforced steel door of the VIP room was slowly pushed open by a long, fair hand.
“Luke, sorry to keep you waiting.”
Outside the door, Luke heard the voice and turned his head without thinking.
But the moment his eyes met Aiden’s, the battle-hardened Tyrant Cleric froze on the spot as if he had been struck by lightning.
Cold sweat poured down Luke’s temples.
He could feel it with terrifying clarity.A faint but crushing pressure was coming from Aiden.
It was not the pressure of a higher level.
It was an absolute domain formed naturally when a person’s soul became powerful enough to spill out on its own.
Under Aiden’s gaze, Luke even felt the magic inside his body begin to slow down.
It was as if Aiden only needed a single thought to erase his soul in an instant.
“Gulp…”
Luke swallowed with difficulty.
His voice was dry and rough, like sandpaper scraping together.
“Aid… Aiden… tell me the truth…”
“How terrifying has your Soul Strength become?”
Aiden casually brushed a bit of wood dust from the corner of his clothes.His tone was calm, as if he were talking about the weather.
“Oh, it’s nothing much.”
“I only just broke through to Peak Great Venerable.”
Hiss—!!!
Luke sucked in a sharp breath.He stumbled and almost fell flat onto the floor.
Peak Great Venerable?!
He was a level 79 expert, only one step away from becoming a Venerable.
He had trained hard for more than half his life, day and night.
And even now, his Soul Strength was only a little over 300 points!
But this little monster, who had only completed his level 50 Class Change quest yesterday and then jumped all the way to level 80, had gone into seclusion for a short while today and pushed his Soul Strength straight to the level of a level 99 Great Venerable?!
Was he even human?!
Luke stared at the handsome young man in front of him.The corners of his mouth twitched wildly, and he forced out a bitter smile that looked worse than crying.
“You brat… are you really just a Magic Apprentice?”
This was a question he had been holding back for a long time.
It was also the mystery that every high-ranking official in the Sovereign City wanted answered.
What kind of Magic Apprentice had a body tougher than a dragon’s?
What kind of Magic Apprentice had a soul stronger than a Great Venerable’s?!
Aiden smiled slightly.A proud, untamed light flashed in his deep eyes.
“Yeah.”
“A real, genuine Legendary Rank Magic Apprentice.”
Luke was completely speechless.
A Legendary Rank Magic Apprentice.Those words put together were already a huge paradox that challenged common sense.
But Luke was numb by now.Even if Aiden pointed at an Abyss Demon God tomorrow and said it was his pet, Luke felt he could probably force himself to accept it.
“Forget it. I won’t ask how you did it anymore. I don’t understand the world of monsters like you.”
Luke let out a long breath, and his expression became serious again.
“What are you planning to do next?”
“The situation at the Golden Great Wall is getting worse. Her Majesty the Empress and War God James have both gone to the front line to take command.”
“As for the ancient battlefield, the military is doing everything it can to open a temporary teleportation route for you, but they still need some time.”
Aiden nodded slightly, the sharp light in his eyes hidden deep within.
“Before I go to the ancient battlefield to look for the core of the Great Wall, I need to make a trip to The Black City first.”
“The Black City?” Luke was slightly stunned.
“Yes.”Aiden’s voice gradually turned cold. There was a firm, ruthless edge in it that left no room for doubt.
“I need to find that guy called WraithJack and ask him about some secrets from back then.”
“And while I’m there, I need to meet someone named Alexius.”
The two mysterious treasure map fragments in Cassian’s possession were both connected to his older brother, Alexius.They were very likely related to an extremely high-tier Law treasure.Aiden was determined to get it.
“I understand.”
Luke did not ask a single unnecessary question. He simply nodded heavily.
“I’ll arrange our informants in The Black City right away. The teleportation array will also be ready for you within ten minutes.”
“You just focus on doing what you need to do.”
“As for the Sovereign City, even if the sky falls, I, Luke, and the entire Reclasser Association will hold it up for you!”
Aiden looked at this proud but iron-willed cleric and gave him a serious fist salute.
“Thank you.”
There was no more small talk.Aiden turned around and, under countless looks of awe, strode out of the Reclasser Association building.
…
The moment Aiden stepped out of the Sovereign City Reclasser Association building, sunlight fell across his shoulders.But it could not drive away the deep, dark light in his eyes.
According to the original plan, he should have already been on a private teleportation array heading to The Black City.
But ten minutes ago, the top-secret military communicator at Luke’s waist had received an urgent report.
Alexius, the level 99 Great Venerable famous throughout The Azurecloud Empire and known as the favorite disciple of The Flame God Ignis, had crossed the border and was now heading straight for the Great Shaw Empire’s Sovereign City!
And he had specifically asked to meet Aiden.
The Sovereign City, South Gate.
This was the strongest steel fortress in the Great Shaw Empire.
Its walls were a hundred meters tall, and they were packed with rows of giant magic crystal cannons, all giving off a terrifying aura of death.
On both sides stood thousands of fully armed elite guards.Every one of them was a high-level Reclasser above level 60 who had survived bloody battles in the Abyss.
The streets, which were usually busy and full of life, had now been completely locked down.A heavy, suffocating tension filled the air, like the calm before a storm.
