22: Chapter 22: One Strike Slays a God-Level Boss, Entire Server Players Kneel in Awe.

Lin Chen tapped the territory console with his fingertip.

[Ding! Player application to enter the Abyssal Rift dungeon detected. Enable access permissions?]

"Enable."

As soon as he finished speaking, the void tore open, and dozens of players were instantly teleported into the pitch-black dungeon space.

Player [Iron Head Kid] fell flat on his face upon landing. He scrambled up, cursing, "Damn it, can't the teleportation be more stable? My butt is bruised to pieces!"

Player [Cute Girl] held up her wooden staff and looked around. "This place is so eerie. A monster won't suddenly jump out and eat me, right?"

Lin Chen stepped into the dungeon, and a golden light flashed around his body.

[Lord Exclusive Buff Activated: All Attributes +300%, Damage Increase +200%, Ignore Evil Spirit Resistance.]

Black mist rolled ahead, and a ten-meter-tall Abyssal Blood Demon rushed out with a boom.

The Blood Demon held a giant axe and slashed at the players in the front row.

"Watch out!"

Iron Head Kid raised his shield to block. The shield was instantly cracked, and he was sent flying backward.

-32400!

A bright red damage number floated up, and Iron Head Kid was left with critical health.

"This monster's damage is too ridiculous! This is an Epic shield!"

Cute Girl hurriedly raised her hand to heal, and a green light enveloped Iron Head Kid.

[Healing +1500]

"Can't heal him, can't heal him, I can't heal him at all!"

Other players unleashed their skills, but arrows and magic hitting the Blood Demon only produced a series of forced damage numbers like -1 and -2.

Player [Scraping Master] was numb. "No way, hitting it feels like scratching an itch. How is this even playable?"

Lin Chen's eyes turned cold.

He raised his hand and drew the blade of dawn from his waist, the blade blooming with brilliant golden light.

Without any unnecessary movements, he swung it casually.

A thousand-meter-long golden blade aura traversed the void and struck the Abyssal Blood Demon fiercely.

-9999999!

One-hit kill!

[Ding! You killed the Abyssal Blood Demon (Lord Rank).]

[Experience Gained: 1,000,000]

[Items Gained: Abyssal Core x10, God-Rank Treasure Chest x1]

[Territory Reputation +10,000]

Golden light exploded, and the Blood Demon turned into ash without even letting out a scream.

All the players were stunned.

Three seconds later, the players exploded with excitement.

"Holy crap? One-hit killed a Lord Rank monster?"

"What kind of god-like damage is Lord Big Shot dealing? I'm stunned!"

"I was just wondering how to run away, and then Lord Big Shot ended the battle just like that?"

Lin Chen ignored the cheering players and continued walking forward.

Deep in the dungeon, three even more powerful auras locked onto them.

Three Abyssal Demon Generals appeared simultaneously, each possessing the strength of a Low-Rank God.

A terrifying pressure washed over them, making it hard for the players to breathe, and many fell directly to their knees.

"Th-th-this... is this a God-Rank monster?"

"It's over, it's over, three God-Rank monsters, we're dead for sure this time!"

"Lord Big Shot, retreat! We can't block them!"

The three Abyssal Demon Generals roared in unison and pounced toward Lin Chen.

Lin Chen didn't stop, raising the blade of dawn once again.

This time, he infused the power of the territory's origin.

The blade light surged, and the golden glow illuminated the entire Abyssal Rift.

"Slash!"

A single simple word, yet it carried world-destroying power.

Three blade auras shot out simultaneously, accurately hitting the three Abyssal Demon Generals.

-12999999!

-12999999!

-12999999!

Triple one-hit kill!

[Ding! You killed the Abyssal Demon General (Low-Rank God) x3]

[Experience Gained: 5,000,000]

[Territory Level Up! Current Level: Level 9 Territory]

[Rewards Gained: God-Rank Building Blueprint, Territory-Wide Attribute Boost Card]

The upgrade light enveloped Lin Chen, and the aura on his body surged again.

The players went completely wild.

"He leveled up! Lord Big Shot leveled up again!"

"Three God-Rank monsters, one-hit kill. Is this the ceiling of power?"

"I declare that from today on, Lord Big Shot is my real dad!"

Iron Head Kid rubbed his eyes in disbelief. "Am I dreaming? God-Rank monsters are like chopping melons and vegetables to him?"

Cute Girl covered her mouth and screamed, "Lord Big Shot is so handsome! I want to have his babies!"

Lin Chen bent down to pick up the dropped items.

The three Abyssal Demon Generals dropped three pieces of God-Rank equipment and a rare skill book.

[Ding! Three pieces of God-Rank equipment detected. Store them in the territory warehouse?]

"Store temporarily."

He glanced at the skill book, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

[Skill: Heavens Plunder (God-Rank): After killing a target, you can plunder 10% of their attributes and skills.]

Top-tier skill!

With this skill, his strength would grow infinitely.

The players gathered around, staring intently at the equipment in Lin Chen's hands.

"Lord Big Shot, is that God-Rank equipment? Can you let us take a look?"

"I've never seen what God-Rank equipment looks like in my whole life!"

Lin Chen casually tossed a piece of God-Rank armor to Iron Head Kid.

"Take it. Use it for the front-line players."

Iron Head Kid caught the armor, his hands trembling.

[God-Rank: Abyssal Guardian Armor]

[Level: None]

[Attributes: Defense +100,000, HP +500,000, Immune to all control effects.]

"G-God-Rank equipment! It really is God-Rank equipment!"

Iron Head Kid knelt on the spot, tears almost welling up in his eyes.

"Thank you for your grace, Lord Big Shot! I will work like a horse or ox to repay you for the rest of my life!"

The other players' eyes turned red with envy.

"So jealous, I want God-Rank equipment too!"

"Following Lord Big Shot, we can get God-Rank gear every day!"

Lin Chen said calmly, "Continue pushing forward. There is still a final BOSS deep in the dungeon."

The players instantly perked up and rushed forward, following behind Lin Chen.

The previous fear was gone, and now they were only excited.

With such an invincible Lord leading them, not to mention God-Rank monsters, they would even dare to charge at God-King Rank ones!

Deepest in the dungeon, a pitch-black throne stood in the void.

On the throne sat a man clad in bone armor.

[Abyssal Monarch · Karon (Peak God-Rank)]

[Level: 100]

[Introduction: The ruler of the Abyssal Plane, possessing terrifying strength.]

Karon slowly opened his eyes, his scarlet gaze locking onto Lin Chen.

"Humble outsider, how dare you intrude into my territory? You're courting death!"

He waved his hand, and countless Abyssal tentacles stretched out from the void, wrapping toward Lin Chen.

The players turned pale.

"Peak God-Rank! This is the real final BOSS!"

"It's over, we're definitely going to be wiped out this time!"

"Lord Big Shot, run! Don't go head-to-head with it!"

The tentacles moved extremely fast, instantly reaching Lin Chen.

Lin Chen's eyes showed no fluctuation, and he slashed horizontally with the blade of dawn.

The tentacles were instantly severed, and black fluid splattered everywhere.

"Your opponent is me."

Karon was furious and stood up from the throne.

Terrifying pressure washed over them, and the entire dungeon space trembled.

"Ant, you have angered me!"

He held the Abyssal Scepter and smashed it toward Lin Chen.

Where the scepter passed, space shattered, and dark energy raged.

Lin Chen didn't dodge or evade, taking the hit head-on.

Clang!

The sound of metal clashing rang out through heaven and earth.

Lin Chen didn't budge an inch, but Karon was shaken and forced to retreat three steps.

"Impossible! You are a mere mortal, how could you block my attack?"

Karon looked incredulous.

Lin Chen didn't answer, his figure flashing as he appeared in front of Karon.

The blade of dawn pierced into Karon's chest.

-19999999!

Critical damage!

Karon widened his eyes, filled with unwillingness.

"I am the Abyssal Monarch... You cannot kill me..."

Lin Chen twisted his wrist, and the blade completely pierced through the other's body.

"To gain a foothold in the Heavens, you don't rely on status, but on strength."

Pfft!

Karon's body exploded with a boom, turning into countless light particles and dissipating.

[Ding! You killed the Abyssal Monarch · Karon (Peak God-Rank).]

[Experience Gained: 10,000,000]

[Territory Level Up! Current Level: Level 10 Ultimate Territory]

[Rewards Gained: Heavens Portal Blueprint, God-Rank Lord Set, Server-Wide Announcement x3]

[Server-Wide Announcement]

[Player Lin Chen successfully killed the Peak God-Rank BOSS Abyssal Monarch. Territory promoted to Ultimate Territory. All server players receive rewards: Experience x10,000, Gold x1,000.]

[Server-Wide Announcement]

[Player Lin Chen has become the world's first Ultimate Lord, unlocking Heavens Permissions.]

[Server-Wide Announcement]

[The Abyssal Rift dungeon is now officially open. All server players can enter to challenge it.]

Three consecutive server-wide announcements made the entire game server boil with excitement.

All players went crazy.

"Ultimate Lord! The first in the world!"

"Lord Big Shot Lin Chen is too strong, he's basically a god now!"

"He can even kill a Peak God-Rank BOSS. Who can beat him now?"

Inside Lin Chen's territory, the players started to celebrate wildly.

"Awesome! Lord Big Shot has reached the number one spot in the world!"

"Following an Ultimate Lord, we will be the strongest guild in the whole server from now on!"

"I declare that from now on, whoever talks trash about Lord Big Shot Lin Chen, I'll be the first to get mad at them!"

Iron Head Kid, wearing the God-Rank armor, jumped on the spot in excitement. "I told you, following Lord Big Shot was the right choice! We've taken off now!"

Cute Girl twirled her wooden staff. "An Ultimate Territory! From now on, our territory will be the number one in the whole server!"

Lin Chen opened his backpack to check the God-Rank Lord Set.

[God-Rank: Heavens Lord Set]

[Set Effects: All Attributes +500%, Territory Boost +300%, possesses Heavens Pressure, intimidating all targets below God-King Rank.]

He directly equipped the set, and golden light enveloped his whole body.

A set of gilded armor was donned, his aura majestic, just like an Emperor of the Heavens.

The players watched, dumbstruck.

"So handsome! This set is too domineering!"

"When Lord Big Shot wears this, he's basically an Emperor of the Heavens!"

Lin Chen said calmly, "The Abyssal dungeon has been cleared. Everyone return to the territory to claim the ultimate rewards."

The players exploded with excitement, cheering as they rushed toward the teleportation array.

Lin Chen stood in the void, gazing at the distant starry sky of the Heavens.

The Ultimate Territory was complete, the God-Rank set was in hand. Next, it was time to conquer the Heavens and Sweep all powerful enemies.

His eyes were firm and cold.

Heavens and Myriad Worlds, I, Lin Chen, have come!
