140: The second job change alarmed Laozi.

"Person of Destiny, we meet again."

Sitting cross-legged on the meditation cushion, Chaos appeared somewhat out of place.

His featureless face stared directly at Lin Yue.

"Not bad, you are even stronger than I imagined."

Chaos nodded, his tone full of praise.

"Greetings, Lord Chaos!"

Cai Wenji immediately bowed in salute, her voice filled with reverence.

She knew that Chaos was Di Jiang. Since the Lord hadn't revealed it, he must have his reasons.

Cai Wenji dared not say more.

"Enough with the pleasantries, Chaos. I want to undergo my second class advancement. What are the requirements?"

Lin Yue asked impatiently, his heart filled with anticipation.

"Simple. There are still two methods,"

Chaos turned towards Lin Yue, extending a forelimb and revealing two sharp claws.

"First, you slay a Demigod by yourself. So, do you have the confidence?"

Chaos's voice was full of temptation.

Lin Yue glared at the creature.

A Demigod? Did he think they were cabbages?

Compared to before, Lin Yue's strength had increased tremendously, but he had witnessed the power of a Demigod firsthand.

With his current strength, Lin Yue was absolutely no match for a Demigod.

Thinking this, Lin Yue couldn't help but glance at Cai Wenji beside him.

Cai Wenji had said she possessed the strength of a Demigod.

Noticing Lin Yue's gaze, Cai Wenji's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly said, "White Emperor, sir, I am not your trial target."

Joking aside, the person before her was the Person of Destiny, someone whom both Chaos and the Grand Supreme Old Lord treated with exceptional importance.

If she accidentally injured him, she would definitely face severe consequences.

Lin Yue withdrew his gaze. He was merely curious about Cai Wenji's strength and had no intention of fighting her.

"Then what's the second method?"

Lin Yue looked at Chaos. He had already guessed the second method for class advancement.

"Just as you think, continue to comprehend the Heart of Chaos."

"So, do you want to try the first method? I can help you capture a Demigod-level Evil God."

Chaos continued to tempt Lin Yue.

Lin Yue glared fiercely at the creature and decisively refused, "I choose to continue comprehending the Heart of Chaos."

"Boring."

"Well then, enter. Remember, you only have twenty-four hours."

Seeing Lin Yue had decided, Chaos said no more. With a wave of his hand, Lin Yue entered the Land of Chaos once again.

This was Lin Yue's second time entering the Land of Chaos. The surroundings were still a chaotic blur, visibility less than three meters.

However, unlike last time, there was another figure beside him.

"Cai Wenji, why are you here too?"

Lin Yue looked at Cai Wenji and asked in surprise.

Cai Wenji gave a charming smile. "White Emperor, sir, it was Lord Chaos's arrangement. I can help you better comprehend the Chaos Power."

Oh?

Lin Yue was puzzled but didn't ask further.

Following his memory from last time, Lin Yue easily found the mysterious stone stele.

The stele remained dim and mysterious.

Yet, Lin Yue felt the Chaos Power enveloping the stele was even denser.

Presumably, during the time Lin Yue was away, the stele had automatically replenished its Chaos Power.

Lin Yue didn't rush to comprehend it. He looked at Cai Wenji beside him and asked curiously, "How are you going to help me?"

"White Emperor, sir, just proceed with your comprehension normally."

Cai Wenji took a step back, sat cross-legged, placed an ancient long zither on her lap, and with her slender fingers plucking the strings, a shimmering light flickered as clear, melodious zither music reverberated.

In an instant, Lin Yue felt as if bathed in a spring breeze, his inner restlessness soothed.

"So beautiful..."

Lin Yue sighed in admiration. He wasn't referring to Cai Wenji, but to the sound of the zither.

Even though Lin Yue was tone-deaf, he could still appreciate the beauty of this music.

The melodious zither music echoed, seeming to blend with heaven and earth, the most beautiful heavenly music in this space.

Lin Yue also snapped back to reality, sat cross-legged before the stele, and began to comprehend carefully.

Compared to last time, Lin Yue felt much more at ease. Feeling the zither music, he instantly entered a meditative state.

This time, Lin Yue clearly "saw" the pulsating Chaos Power dancing along with the light zither music, entering his body and merging with his flesh and blood.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, small vortexes appeared around Lin Yue's body. His body seemed like a bottomless pit, frantically devouring the Chaos Power.

At this moment, Lin Yue's Supreme-Rank talent, the proficiency of the Heart of Chaos, began to increase rapidly once again.

+10

+10

...The stele hummed, and the entire space seemed to tremble.

Such a huge commotion alarmed Di Jiang.

"The Land of Chaos? What is that kid up to again?"

Di Jiang frowned, his figure flashing as he appeared in the Land of Chaos.

"My Lord..."

Cai Wenji, who was playing the zither, looked at the suddenly appearing Di Jiang and was about to greet him when Di Jiang hurriedly waved his hand to stop her.

"It's over. The Chaos Mist is going to run out again."

Watching Lin Yue's terrifying, whale-like absorption speed, Di Jiang's face showed a pained expression.

Last time, Lin Yue had devoured more than half of the Chaos Mist. To prepare for this class advancement, Di Jiang had spent a great deal of effort to replenish and enrich it.

He had thought it would be enough for Lin Yue's second comprehension session.

To help Lin Yue absorb more Chaos Power, he had even thoughtfully asked the Grand Supreme Old Lord to send Cai Wenji to assist.

Now it seemed this was unnecessary.

"Sigh, I'm going to have to work hard again. I should have just let this guy go kill a Demigod..."

Di Jiang muttered to himself, as vast Divine Power spread from his body, transforming into the purest Chaos Power and condensing into Chaos Mist.

The condensation speed of the Chaos Mist and Lin Yue's absorption speed reached a brief balance.

But soon, this balance was broken.

Whoosh!

A gentle breeze stirred, and the vortexes suddenly increased their absorption speed.

"Little brother, are you determined to drain me dry?"

Di Jiang's expression turned grave, but he showed no intention of stopping.

A Person of Destiny with dual Supreme-Rank talents was indeed extraordinary.

He wanted to see where Lin Yue's limits truly lay.

Even if it meant losing cultivation, he wouldn't hesitate.

Di Jiang sat cross-legged, unleashing endless Divine Power from within. The immense pressure he emitted was chilling.

Cai Wenji's face paled. Holding her long zither, she retreated again and again.

Fortunately, Lin Yue was in a state of comprehension, and the Chaos Power around him offset Di Jiang's pressure.

To help Lin Yue, Di Jiang held nothing back.

Whoosh!

At that moment, a figure flashed, and an old man with white hair, a long beard, and an immortal aura appeared.

"Di Jiang, what happened? Why is there such a commotion here?"

"The Person of Destiny?"

An exclamation sounded. The newcomer was none other than the Grand Supreme Old Lord, looking at Lin Yue with astonishment.

The Grand Supreme Old Lord and other powerful beings from the Lost City had been setting up a Formation to conceal the workings of heaven when they were alarmed by the commotion in the Land of Chaos.

The Grand Supreme Old Lord stared at Lin Yue in surprise, his brow furrowed as he began calculating with his fingers.

"Old Lord, stop divining! Help me!"

Seeing the Grand Supreme Old Lord still trying to divine the heavenly secrets at a time like this, Di Jiang hurriedly reminded him.

Only then did the Grand Supreme Old Lord react. Waving his long staff, a vast Divine Power, no weaker than Di Jiang's, surged forth, transforming into torrential Chaos Power that merged into Lin Yue's body.

With the Grand Supreme Old Lord joining in, Di Jiang's pressure greatly reduced.

The two terrifying powerhouses exerting their full strength finally balanced the speed at which Lin Yue absorbed the Chaos Mist.

Yet, their expressions remained grave, not relaxing in the slightest.

This was only a temporary balance. Consuming Divine Power at this rate, they probably couldn't last even ten hours, while Lin Yue's comprehension time was twenty-four hours.

Losing cultivation was inevitable by then.

Even knowing this outcome, the two still showed no intention of stopping, helping Lin Yue with all their might.
