Chapter 165: The Celebration of Heaven
Sylvus and Deced simultaneously turned their gaze to Boone beside them.
They noticed that he, too, had a confused look on his face, but his aura was rapidly increasing.
In just a few moments, he broke through from a Nine-star Saint Demon Magus to a One-star Demon Magus Emperor.
"I... I broke through? But where's the Heavenly Tribulation?"
Boone snapped back to his senses and asked in surprise.
A Nine-star Saint Demon Magus breaking through to the Demon Magus Emperor level would surely have to undergo a tribulation.
But now, his realm had instantly advanced, yet there was no sign of a Heavenly Tribulation.
"During the Celebration of Heaven, any breakthrough in cultivation is recognized by the rules of heaven and earth, so there's no need for tribulation."
Deced explained from the side.
Under normal circumstances, a breakthrough was essentially a struggle against the heavens, and naturally, one would have to undergo a trial, also known as the tribulation.
But right now, the rules of the world were designed to benefit everyone, so there was no need for tribulation.
Upon hearing this explanation, Boone's eyes were filled with a sense of helplessness.
Why was he just a Nine-star Saint Demon Magus?
If he had been breaking through to the Ruler realm, he wouldn't have needed to undergo tribulation either.
At this moment, many people who were lining up outside the small shop also began to break through their cultivation levels.
"What on earth is happening? I just broke through, and not just by one level, but by two!"
"Hahaha! I actually broke through to the Demon Magus Emperor level, and without having to undergo tribulation. What exactly is happening to the Eslar Continent?"
"Why did you all have breakthroughs, but I don't feel any different? Also, this colorful rain seems a bit strange…"
At that moment, Meylan's aura also surged.
He had originally been at the Ruler level, but under the colorful rain, his divine core was quickly reshaped.
In just a few moments, he had condensed a complete divine core, becoming a true Lower Deity.
Outside the Holy City, nearly all living beings on the Eslar Continent experienced some form of enhancement.
However, the extent of the improvement varied depending on each individual's fortune.
Meanwhile, as the colorful rain fell to the ground, various heavenly treasures began to grow from the soil.
And all of them were at the divine level.
The Demon Crystal mines beneath the earth were also rapidly transforming into Divine Crystals.
The entire Eslar Continent was undergoing a transformation, but the only ones unaffected were Sylvus and Deced.
"It seems that the Celebration of Heaven doesn't affect those who are not natives of this world."
Deced said with a smile as he observed the colorful rain around him.
He didn't feel disappointed, as this enhancement of the rules was only a small upgrade.
It could now accommodate Higher Deities.
If they wanted to continue raising it, they would need more time.
Listening to Deced, Sylvus also understood.
After all, he himself was a transmigrator, not someone who was born and raised on the Eslar Continent.
[System Prompt: The rules of heaven and earth on the Eslar Continent have been successfully upgraded. The current stage can now accommodate Higher Deities.]
As the system's message sounded, the colorful light and rain in the sky slowly dissipated.
The Eslar Continent returned to its original appearance.
But Sylvus could feel that the entire continent seemed to have been revitalized, as if it was brimming with new life.
Moreover, the divine energy was now dozens of times more concentrated than before.
It still couldn't compare to the Divine Realm, but it was a significant improvement.
"If there's no Heaven and Earth Rule Token next time, we'll have to wait for the Eslar Continent to accumulate divine energy on its own and gradually level up."
Sylvus thought to himself.
The passage between the Eslar Continent and the Divine Realm was now open.
Every moment, divine energy was flowing in.
As long as enough time passed, there would come a day when the rules of the Eslar Continent could match those of the Divine Realm.
"But before that, I need to figure out a way to get more Divine Crystals."
He still needed a trillion Divine Crystals to purchase the Divine Light Cannon shells from the system store.
Getting that much in just seven days would be troublesome; it looked like he would have to make another trip to the Divine Realm.
With that in mind, Sylvus returned to his small shop.
Boone quickly spread the news about the changes on the continent, assuring everyone that there was no need to panic.
Meanwhile, the powerhouses in the Divine Realm had also sensed the changes when the rules of the Eslar Continent were upgraded.
The Fallen Temple
As one of the twelve temples of the Divine Realm, its master was the leader of the Fallen Angel clan, Amiya.
The Fallen Angels had replaced the Angel clan in the Divine Realm, becoming the new War God clan, ranking among the top three in strength among the twelve temples.
In the main hall of the Fallen Temple, a pair of eyes slowly opened, showing a trace of surprise.
"How strange… why did I sense a trace of the Angel clan's aura? Could it be…"
As the thought lingered, a figure swiftly flew in.
It was a young man with wings on his back, also a Fallen Angel.
"Master, I sensed the aura of the Angel clan just now, so I came to report."
The young man quickly said, looking at the master of the Fallen Temple.
"Oh? You sensed it too?"
Amiya frowned.
He was able to sense it because he was a Nine-star Deity Emperor, and he was very familiar with the aura of the Angel clan.
But this young man was only at the Deity King level, so it didn't make sense for him to be able to sense it.
"Master, some time ago, one of our clansmen borrowed my power in another world, but that clansman was eventually killed. However, I had left a trace of my aura in that world, which is why I could sense it."
The young man explained.
"Hmph! So, the Angel clan still wants to make a comeback? That cannot be allowed. Nansi, go find the location of that world for me. I will personally ensure that the remnants of the Angel clan are eradicated."
Amiya said coldly.
"Don't worry, Master. I'll take care of it!"
After saying that, Nansi turned into a streak of light and vanished.
"Angel clan… this time, I will eliminate you once and for all, to prevent any future troubles!"
After Nansi left, Amiya's eyes flashed with killing intent.
A few seconds later, he closed his eyes and resumed his cultivation.
For the next two days, nothing major happened on the Eslar Continent.
At most, more people broke through to the Lower Deity level, and the overall strength of the continent was rapidly increasing.
"Three days have passed, and I still haven't gathered the trillion Divine Crystals. Looks like I'll have to make a trip to the Divine Realm."
Sylvus thought to himself as he sat in his chair.
If he wanted, he could have pressured Boone and the others to gather a trillion Divine Crystals.
But there was no need for that; doing such a thing would be utterly disgraceful.
Moreover, even though the Eslar Continent now had a lot of Divine Crystals, if he kept doing that, he would eventually deplete the entire continent, which would be counterproductive.
Having made up his mind, he planned to head to the Divine Realm early the next morning.
At that time, he would find a powerful clan to raid.
If he still couldn't gather the trillion Divine Crystals, he would just have to raid more clans.
Meanwhile, in the Divine Realm, a group of figures had gathered at the location of the Heaven and Earth Gate, led by none other than Amiya, the master of the Fallen Temple.
