Chapter 554: Chapter 554 - Subduing An Ancient God, 100xReward

Figures glowing with light slowly walked out of the spring.

They lined up.

They were expressionless as they stared ahead in a daze.

“Soul Return!”

Lin Ye ordered.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The soul light of the soldiers scattered down and they found their respective bodies.

Light and shadow reincarnated as endless power of faith surged in.

In an instant, pairs of eyes lit up, and their stiff bodies started to move.

“I… I revived?”

“I’m back, I’m back. I’m still the same me from before!”

“It’s better to be alive. I can feel the rhythm of the wind on my skin and the fragrance of nature in my nose…”

“This is the real world!”

......

“Hahaha, reincarnation. Feels good!!!”

…

After obtaining another life, the soldiers of the Heavenly Army were pleasantly surprised.

On the other side, Zhan Mingyue was happier than them.

Previously, when the Heavenly Army was completely wiped out, she felt so guilty that she wanted to bang her head against the wall and die. She might as well go to Hell with everyone.

At this moment, Lin Ye had revived the entire Heavenly Army. The joy in her heart was indescribable.

“Mingyue, we’re back!”

In the distance, Long Wu and the others waved in surprise.

Just as he was about to run over and have a gathering with Zhan Mingyue, he suddenly realized that the ladies opposite him had turned around while cursing.

“Scram!”

“Rascal!”

“??”

Puzzled, the group looked down.

Only then did they realize that they had just been reborn.

At this moment, their skin was fair and clean. All of them were like newborn babies who had just come to this world.

“F*ck!!!”

In an instant, more than ten thousand people were stunned.

The million soldiers of the Lin Clan roared with laughter, while the golden wyverns raised their chests with disdain.

“Tru, stop laughing. Give them a Lin Clan combat uniform each.” Lin Ye turned his head and instructed.

“Yes, my lord.”

Tru chuckled happily and led the 10,000-man team to give a set to Chen Feng and the others.

The moment they came into contact.

Light swirled in Chen Feng’s eyes as mysterious energy particles surged in.

Whoosh—

He activated his Heavenly Eye and instantly captured information within a radius of ten thousand meters.

What he saw shocked him.

Was the Lin Clan already so powerful?

Where did the resources of a million Level 16 and 17 soldiers come from? How could they be piled up to this extent?!!

Also, what was going on with the million golden wyverns?

The dragons had submitted to Lin Ye?

Or was there a secret between them and Lin Ye?

As for Lin Ye, Mu Xuanxin, Fu Wanli, and the others.

Needless to say, under the detection of his Heavenly Eye, there were only words like ‘???’. They were unknown and extremely dangerous in his eyes.

He changed into his clothes in a daze. The Lin Clan’s clothes were of good quality.

They were all high-level living supplies that Lin Ye had obtained from opening hundreds of thousands of boxes.

With the help of many women and children, bright red ‘Lin’ characters were carved on his right chest.

This was the symbol of the Lin Clan.

His fingers touched the clothes. The image of Lin Ye in his mind was deeply rooted in his heart, and endless admiration suddenly arose.

“From today onwards, we are all members of the Lin Clan.”

Chen Feng sighed.

While the soldiers were still changing, Lin Ye walked towards Zhan Mingyue and said directly, “Are you satisfied?”

“Ah, oh.”

Zhan Mingyue was stunned for a moment before she immediately reacted. She nodded gratefully and said, “Lin Ye, thank you. Thank you for saving the entire Heavenly Army.”

“No need to thank me. It’s just a fair trade.”

Lin Ye waved his hand and smiled. “I’ve done what I needed to do. What about you?”

“Master Lin Ye…” Beside him, Valkyrie stared at him pitifully.

Before she could say anything, she was stunned by Lin Ye’s domineering gaze and could only pout aggrievedly.

Although she thought highly of Lin Ye, if she had to choose a host.

She still leaned towards Zhan Mingyue.

After all, both of them were women. Zhan Mingyue was weaker than her, so the success rate of the Three Lives Nirvana Technique would be infinitely higher.

On the other hand, if she followed Lin Ye, her future would be unknown.

If Lin Ye was kind-hearted, she could be reborn in other ways.

However, if he was evil, she would probably be devoured completely.

After all, in the eyes of ordinary people, every ancient god cultivator was a tool to increase their strength.

“Don’t worry. I, Zhan Mingyue, am not someone who breaks my promises. I will definitely do what I promised you.”

With that, Zhan Mingyue was a decisive person. Her eyes flashed with determination as she suddenly struck the center of her dantian.

Boom!

The inner world shook violently as energy exploded.

A talisman that was suffused with golden light and covered in dense divine patterns shattered in the explosion.

This was the contract between her and the Valkyrie. It could only be forcefully shattered if the host was willing.

Once it shattered, her cultivation realm would be greatly damaged.

It fell from Class 20 to Class 10. Her aura had become weak and there was a risk of it falling further.

“Mingyue!”

Valkyrie Tian Xi’s beautiful eyes widened as she stared at Zhan Mingyue in disbelief.

At this moment, the karma meridians on her and Zhan Mingyue’s bodies were severed, and they were heavily injured.

Crack—

The life core seeds in his body exploded one after another, directly shattering into half.

Half of her illusory body was destroyed, leaving only her upper body vaguely visible.

At the same time, Lin Ye heard a congratulatory message.

“Congratulations to Survivor Lin Ye. You have obtained Zhan Mingyue’s loyalty and she has become your loyalist!”

“??”

Lin Ye was surprised. “Why did you offer your loyalty? I didn’t say I wanted you!”

“…”

Upon hearing this, Zhan Mingyue’s face turned pale and red.

She almost vomited blood and passed away just like that.

“Hahaha, I was just joking. Don’t mind me. I’ll compensate you later.”

Lin Ye smiled and changed the topic.

The system sent another congratulatory message as if it had received money.

“Congratulations to Survivor Lin Ye. You have obtained the approval of the pseudo son of the heavens—Zhan Mingyue. Your luck has increased by 1,000,000 points. Your destiny has increased by 100 points!”

100xReward.

“Luck Points increased by 100 million!”

“Destiny Points increased by 10,000!”

“Current total Destiny Points: 27,000!”

“Impressive, conquering a pseudo son of the heavens has increased my Destiny Points and Luck Points by so much!”

“If this is the true one, that would be awesome!”

Lin Ye stared.

No wonder Hint predicted that obtaining Zhan Mingyue’s loyalty would greatly increase the power of luck.

Initially, he did not think much of it. From the looks of it, his standards were too low.

This woman was indeed not simple.

As expected, without him, the overlord of the area around the Lonely Forest would definitely be Zhan Mingyue.

That was true. If it was simple.

How could it attract the attention of the Valkyrie, Tian Xi, who shamelessly wanted to practice the Three Lives Nirvana Technique with her?

As he was thinking, 100 million strands of luck transformed into an energy beam that descended from the sky.

Pure golden energy surged like a golden dragon as it descended from the sky.

At the same time, a real ten-thousand-meter golden dragon of luck flew out from between Lin Ye’s eyebrows. The two dragon shadows collided in the air.

Whoosh—

The world was dyed golden, and countless spiritual light particles appeared again.

It accidentally landed on the Lin Clan’s territory and citizens.

The ground started to recover.

The withered leaves started to grow back.

The super plant seeds planted in the ground also germinated at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Far away at the edge of the territory, Lin Two, who was working overtime to build the city wall, was pleasantly surprised.

The speed at which the city wall was built increased, and his experience points increased rapidly.

Every minute and second, tens of thousands of upgrade golden light fell.

Level 8 → Level 9 → Level 10…

In the blink of an eye, they leveled up at least three times in a row, almost making the native workers excited.

Previously, when the lord upgraded the Lin Clan soldiers, 99% of the upgrade scrolls were given to the combat units.

This time, it could be said that Lin Ye had shown mercy and given the citizens 100 million luck points.

Although this would reduce Lin Ye’s own gains, he did not care. With the 100xReward, this loss was completely negligible.

It could also make his clansmen’s faith in him deepen. Why not?

Apart from that, what was surprising was that a large area of upgrade golden light appeared on the Heavenly Army’s side.

Zhan Mingyue was the first to receive it.

She had just forcefully severed the contract with the Valkyrie and suffered heavy losses, losing ten levels in a row.

But at this moment, under Lin Ye’s deliberate efforts, the power of luck was infused into her body, and he used his time secret technique, Dream of a Thousand Years on her.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

He then shattered hundreds of Level 17 Spirit Concentration Pills in a row.

All the energy from the medicinal pills entered his palm. With the enhancement of 100xQuantity and Quality, they were all sent into Zhan Mingyue’s body.

Fortunately, Zhan Mingyue was a physical body cultivator and had the indestructible divine power to protect herself.

In addition, she had the Valkyrie’s ancient god power to reconstruct her golden body.

Otherwise, if the energy of these medicinal pills were placed in other people’s bodies, they would directly explode.

Of course, the greater the risk, the greater the gains.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

With the Thousand Years Of Dream to increase his foundation and a vast amount of high-quality energy to fill her dantian.

Zhan Mingyue’s aura exploded as her entire body was bathed in golden light. Her cultivation soared like a rocket.

Class 10 → Class 11 → Class 12… Class 18 → Class 19…

Dong!

A dull sound came from her dantian, as if a certain realm wall had been broken.

An invisible dragon shadow of luck appeared above her head.

At the same time, astral winds blew under her feet as she easily flew up.

“Flying in the air. She’s already Class 20.”

“She even condensed her own dragon spirit of luck. Impressive.”

A cold glint flashed across Lin Ye’s eyes.

There was nothing to say about Zhan Mingyue’s talent.

She was definitely one of the top few women he had seen when it came to talent.

She was even second only to Goddess Zi Lan and Princess Nightshade.

It was just that her brain was a little slow, but she was good in other aspects.

“Mingyue, you broke through!”

In the distance, Chen Feng and the others, who had tidied their clothes, also saw Zhan Mingyue’s state.

One by one, they ran over, pleasantly surprised.

“Uncle Chen Feng, brothers.” Zhan Mingyue’s eyes were glistening with tears of excitement.

She was happy that her brothers had come back to life, but she was also inexplicably happy that her strength had increased.

Rumble!!

After a long time, thunder rumbled as the three-colored lightning tribulation appeared.

However, this time was different from before. After sensing Lin Ye’s aura, the mysterious creature in the tribulation clouds was stunned.

He hesitated and even retreated, unwilling to condense it.

However, due to the rules of the world, it had no choice but to go over.

At this moment, a few black shadows landed and surrounded Zhan Mingyue.

It was none other than the foodie combination, Demon Venerable [Dragon], Shadow, Divine Sword Little Blood, Demon Spirit, Lightning Snake Battle Aura, and other spirit bodies.

“Miss Zhan Mingyue, do you need to transcend the tribulation?”

“Don’t be afraid. Just say the word and we will settle it for you.”

“Yes, yes, yes. There will definitely be no fees or any side effects. 100% chance of passing and 100% chance of completing the heavenly tribulation.”

“…”

Soon, another scene of devouring lightning appeared.

Lin Ye laughed silently and turned to look at the Valkyrie—Tian Xi.

“Human Lord, more than half of my life core seeds have exploded.”

Tian Xi hid in a corner, trembling. Tears welled up in her eyes.

In the end, she even looked at Lin Ye eagerly.

She remembered clearly that Lin Ye had promised to give her ten times the compensation. She wondered if it was true.

However, looking at Zhan Mingyue, the Heavenly Army, and the huge gains from the Lin Clan.

She felt an inexplicable sense of anticipation.

“Cut the crap. Give me the contract first. After I sign it, I’ll give you the opportunity.” Lin Ye’s expression did not change as he reached out his hand.

“At least give me some benefits first. Just a little will do.”

“Tsk, so petty.”

Tian Xi complained, but her actions were fast.

She quickly rummaged through her Void Ring and found a brand new host contract. She then handed it over respectfully.

“@! #! $!”

Lin Ye took a look and was at a loss.

Awkward.

Ancient God’s Language, I don’t f*cking know it.

Thinking about it, Fu Wanli had previously studied the Ancient God Civilization and created the True Life Core Secret Technique.

He definitely knew the Ancient God Language.

“Senior Fu Wanli, come here for a moment,” he shouted from afar.

“Human Lord.”

Soon, Fu Wanli walked over.

“Help me look at the contract.”

Lin Ye nodded and threw the contract over.

“Human Lord, there’s generally no problem with this contract. It can be considered a win-win situation where both parties are equal and mutually beneficial. Both parties are not too involved and can freely sever the contract. The flaw is that if the contract is severed, both parties will be punished by the contract.”

A few minutes later, he spoke truthfully.

“Equal benefits?”

Lin Ye raised his eyebrows. “That won’t do. Change it to a master-servant contract. I am the lord and she is my servant. There’s no need to change anything else.”

It was not that he was petty and wanted to obtain Valkyrie Tian Xi.

Instead, it was based on the previous tests.

If the other party only offered her loyalty and did not acknowledge him as her master, the chance of triggering 100xReward was lower.

Especially for non-humans.

Based off the cases of the Dark Race’s An Ying, Demon Spirit, Dragon Race’s Long Xiaomi, the million wyverns…

In this situation, the probability of the ownership mode triggering was far higher than just the other party offering her loyalty.

“Lin Ye, you actually want me to sign a master-servant contract. Ridiculous! I’m an ancient god from the ancient era!” Tian Xi’s entire body was trembling. The top of her head was like a furnace burning the air. In the end, she even glared at Lin Ye angrily.

If looks could kill, he would have been beheaded.

“You’re unwilling?”

Lin Ye glanced at Tian Xi, his eyes cold.

“As expected, the more beautiful a woman is, the more she likes to lie. The compliments I received previously were all false.”

Boom!

The might of the Human Sovereign erupted.

At the same time, the Golden Dragon of Luck that was still devouring billions of luck roared.

Under the suppression of the two auras, Tian Xi’s legs went limp.

She almost staggered and fell to the ground.

“Shameless bastard, you even bully an ancient god o(╯_╰)o”

Tian Xi had a long face as she signed her name at the end of the amended contract.

“Little girl, you don’t have good taste. Although you are crying now, you will have a chance to laugh later.”

Lin Ye snorted coldly, squeezed out a drop of pale golden blood, and fused it into the contract.

Slurp—

The contract absorbed the blood like a sponge.

In an instant, the golden divine patterns emitted dazzling divine light.

In the light, strands of divine patterns transformed into tadpoles that circled the two of them.

Then, it split into two.

A portion of the golden light entered Lin Ye’s sea of consciousness, while the other portion surged into the space between Tian Xi’s eyebrows.

A moment later, the system sent a congratulatory message.

“Congratulations to Survivor Lin Ye. You have obtained the recognition of the ancient goddess, Tian Xi.”

100xReward.
