65: Chapter 65: 1.4 trillion true damage with a basic attack, the monster owes me blood, screen-wide explosion!

Jiang Feng stepped onto the thunderstorm, walking forward expressionlessly.

"Boom!"

He had barely stepped a hundred paces into the sea of lightning when the thunder pool ahead violently exploded, and hundreds of giant beasts, each over thirty meters long, burst out from the water.

System prompts instantly flashed across his retina.

[Name: Purple Cloud Thunder Beast]

[Level: Lv400 (Purgatory Enhanced)]

[HP: 1.2 Trillion]

[Skills: Purple Zenith Mad Thunder, World-Destroying Thunderstorm, Absolute Paralysis]

...

In the Demon Realm World, level divisions were extremely strict.

Above normal monsters were Elite Bosses.

Above Elites were the Purgatory Enhanced grade.

Although this grade lacked the 'Boss' prefix, they were significantly stronger than elites of the same level, infinitely approaching the Lord-grade Boss.

The Boss hierarchy from low to high was as follows:

Lord-grade, Hidden-grade Boss, Unique Hidden Boss, Forbidden Seal-grade Boss, God-grade Boss (World-class), Realm God-grade Boss (Top-tier World-class).

In the Demon Realm, even stronger than Realm God-grade Bosses were Law-grade existences—the star-grade.

The Abyssal Demon Emperor Baal, who descended upon Blue Star sixty years ago, was at this level.

While not exactly rare across the entire server, it firmly stood in the upper-middle tier of combat power, infinitely approaching the very peak!

Only those ancient powerhouses who lived in seclusion, hidden deep within mountains and old forests, could contend with it.

In the early years, when humanity had just transitioned from the Blue Star technological era to the Era of Universal Awakening, the Huaxia Empire once faced a cataclysm that brought it to the brink of extinction.

It was Xiao Zhenjiang who stepped forward, using his own strength to forcibly repel Demon Emperor Baal, thereby preserving Huaxia's foundation.

Precisely because of this, humanity was able to rebuild their homes from that catastrophe, and national strength gradually recovered.

Today, awakening schools are everywhere across the country, the Martial Dao era of universal practice has officially begun, folk martial arts halls stand in great numbers, and social order is well-maintained.

...

At this moment,

Hundreds of Level 400 high-tier magic creatures, carrying terrifying health bars of over a trillion and wreathed in world-destroying lightning, frantically lunged to kill Jiang Feng.

This kind of formation would result in an instant total party kill for a hundred-man raid team from any top guild.

Their true combat power had long surpassed Level 300 Forbidden Seal-grade Bosses.

With several hundred attacking together, it was clearly a crushing defeat for any opponent.

Jiang Feng's eyes were cold, his face showing no emotion.

He raised the [staff of universal collapse] and gave it a casual wave.

A most ordinary basic attack.

With Jiang Feng as the center, thirty thousand square meters of space collapsed with a roar, and the rubble and lightning were instantly swallowed!

[Tyrants Law] triggered! The basic attack range expanded to a hundred meters, striking out as a Forbidden Curse!

[Dimensional Crushing] triggered! Ignoring all realm defenses, the damage was fully converted into True Damage!

In the next second, dense crimson damage numbers exploded over the sea of lightning, so bright they were blinding—

-148,960 Trillion! (20x True Damage [Universal Unity] + 49x Critical Hit [Absolute Critical])

-148,960 Trillion!

-148,960 Trillion!

...

Densely packed and covering the sky, every single number was frantically crushing the entire field!

The trillion-HP health bars of the Purple Cloud Thunder Beasts were not even enough to cover the spare change of this terrifying damage.

In an instant, the entire screen was cleared!

All the thunder beasts didn't even have time to scream before they were vaporized into nothingness by the True Damage.

Based on the numbers, even after dying, these monsters owed Jiang Feng 148,958 trillion HP.

If it weren't for the strict linear unlocking of high-tier maps in the Demon Realm, which required destroying the current map's Origin to teleport, Jiang Feng would have already flown directly to Level 3000 or 5000 Forbidden Lands to farm monsters.

He wouldn't need to waste time here with these small fries.

[Ding! Killed Lv400 Purple Cloud Thunder Beast, gained a massive amount of experience!]

[Ding! Talent [Pangu Plunder] triggered, forcibly plundered 28 million Free Attribute Points!]

[Total Settlement: Killed 256 monsters, gained a total of 7.2 billion Free Attribute Points!]

...

As the crisp notification sound faded, the loot on the ground piled up into a mountain of treasure with divine light piercing the sky.

Jiang Feng's terrifying luck value directly activated the mindless equipment drop mode.

[Obtained Quad-Color Equipment × 678 pieces]

[Obtained void law spirit crystals × 1350]

[Obtained 5th Advancement Proof • star-glow crystals × 752]

[Obtained 6th Advancement Proof • Moon Soul Crystals × 180]

...

Colored equipment, which others might not see in several lifetimes, were like stones on the roadside to Jiang Feng, appearing in huge piles at a whim.

Even 6th Advancement tokens, which far exceeded the current map's level, were dropped directly by him.

Fortunately, his pet's quality had already surpassed SSS-grade and entered the Quasi-Ancient grade, coming with a built-in full-screen auto-loot function.

Otherwise, just picking up equipment piece by piece would have bored Jiang Feng to death.

When he killed Chiba Shuichi, Min Se-hun, and that group earlier, picking up the loot was troublesome and easy to miss items.

So now, every time he went online, Jiang Feng made sure to bring the Dragon Girl by his side.

Furthermore, after he went offline, the Dragon Girl could farm experience, materials, and equipment for him on auto-grind.

Strictly speaking, the Dragon Girl's true form had already reached the Ancient-grade (World-class peak combat power), and having awakened a star-grade talent, her quality was stuck at Quasi-star-grade.

Jiang Feng planned to continue stacking the Dragon Girl's power until she was strong enough to solo-grind top-tier monsters of level several thousand or ten thousand, and even stronger Bosses.

He hadn't forgotten that bone-chilling whisper in the Level 90,000 Divine Court Ruins, nor that gaze that had come across dimensions...

There was a terrifying power that had been watching him in the shadows.

Jiang Feng utterly loathed this feeling of being watched; he had to thoroughly suppress the fear in his heart and become even stronger.

Immediately after.

Jiang Feng glanced at his backpack which was about to burst, opened the system panel, and dropped 200 trillion gold coins to expand it in one click.

The backpack, which originally had only 100.2 million slots, instantly surged to 10.001 billion slots.

This was no longer a backpack; it was clearly a portable, giant multinational warehouse.

As the massive amount of experience entered his body, the golden light of leveling up exploded one after another.

[Congratulations, player level has increased to Lv101!]

[Congratulations, player level has increased to Lv102!]

...

[Congratulations, player level has increased to Lv115!]

This kind of racing-speed leveling pleasure was something only Jiang Feng could experience; it was so satisfying it was completely addictive.

He was now only one step away from the Level 120 4th Advancement.

Gaining 15 levels in a single map was simply ridiculous.

Just then, in the depths of the sea of lightning, a diamond-shaped crystal core glowing with purple light slowly emerged.

It was the Origin of this Level 400 map.

Jiang Feng knew that as long as he destroyed it, he could unlock higher-tier maps.

He gave a casual wave, another plain and ordinary basic attack.

"Crack—"

The Origin shattered upon impact.

[System Prompt: You have destroyed the Lv400 Endless Sea of Thunder map Origin. Unlocking conditions met. Lv401-Lv500 area permissions opened!]

Jiang Feng's figure flashed as [Great Thousand Shuttle] was instantly activated.

In the next instant, he was standing in the very center of the Level 500 map, [Dead Plain of Annihilation].

Beneath his feet was a grey, deathly silent land, and over a hundred Level 500 Leader-grade monsters lunged at him with roars.

Jiang Feng raised his staff and pressed down lightly, striking out with another basic attack.

-148,960 Trillion! (20x True Damage [Universal Unity] + 49x Critical Hit [Absolute Critical])

-148,960 Trillion!

-148,960 Trillion!

The world-destroying torrent of damage swept through, and everything was instantly annihilated.
