Chapter 7 – World-Ending Destruction! Level Skyrocketing!

“There must be an expert nearby!”

Zong Shan narrowed his eyes and said.

“An expert nearby?” Lu Ming was shocked, then widened his eyes. “You mean this celestial phenomenon was triggered by someone? How is that possible?”

Zong Shan looked at the celestial phenomenon and sneered, “Triggering celestial phenomena artificially is not something just anyone can do! Only Great Powers at 5th or 6th Revolution or above can achieve that! It must be someone using a ‘Forbidden Curse Scroll.'”

As he spoke, Zong Shan examined the sky densely covered with golden lightning, puzzled: “But… what kind of forbidden curse is this? Why have I never seen it before? Its power shouldn’t be that great!”

Before his words faded, the next moment, his mouth clamped shut tightly! Because he witnessed a scene he would never forget for the rest of his life!

After a brief buildup, the golden lightning descended from the dark clouds with thunderous force. In an instant, it enveloped an area of a hundred miles, obliterating everything below. For that moment, it seemed as though heaven and earth had fallen silent!

…

And at this moment, at the center of the golden lightning.

Withered Grave Village.

Ye Sheng formed hand seals, as if bathing in golden lightning. Dense golden lightning struck all around him.

The white-clothed Malevolent Ghosts surging forward like a tide seemed to have met their nemesis. When a bolt of golden lightning struck a white-clothed Malevolent Ghost, it was as if it suffered a ten-thousand-fold critical hit! White smoke billowed from its body, and without even having time to let out a scream, the formidable 1st Revolution Level 52 Malevolent Ghost instantly turned to ashes! The damage value was off the charts!

And there was more than just this one bolt of golden lightning—it covered an area of over a hundred miles! Any Ghost Creatures within this range were within the attack zone. For a time, Ghost Creatures within a hundred-mile radius suffered, attacked by the golden lightning.

As Ghost Creatures were exterminated, Notification Sounds began to ring incessantly in Ye Sheng’s ears.

[Congratulations on killing a 1st Revolution Level 52 White-Clothed Malevolent Ghost, gaining 3,568 Experience!]

[Congratulations on killing a 1st Revolution Level 76 Headless Ghost, gaining 12,168 Experience!]

[Congratulations on killing a 1st Revolution Level 93 Infant Ghost, gaining 32,332 Experience!]

[Congratulations on killing a 1st Revolution Level 99 Infant Ghost King, gaining 124,238 Experience!]

[Congratulations on killing…]

Endless Experience poured in like a tide, instantly filling Ye Sheng’s empty Experience Bar and increasing his level by one. After leveling up, the Experience Bar cleared but was instantly refilled with endless Experience, and his level rose again. Just like that, Ye Sheng’s level skyrocketed at an unimaginable speed! Upgrading white light continuously flashed on his body!

Level 0!

1st Revolution Level 14!

1st Revolution Level 28!

1st Revolution Level 39!

Boom!

In just one breath, Ye Sheng’s level surged to 1st Revolution Level 50!

1st Revolution Level 50 was a threshold. For a Cultivator to reach 1st Revolution Level 50, it would take at least several years of effort. During that time, they would have to face various crises and battle Ferocious Ghosts; a single misstep could lead to being swallowed by a Ghost Tide, leaving not even bones behind.

But at this moment, Ye Sheng reached it in just one breath—his rate of increase was truly astonishing!

However, reaching 1st Revolution Level 50 was clearly just the beginning. The upgrading white light on Ye Sheng’s body still did not stop, continuing to flash wildly.

1st Revolution Level 50!

1st Revolution Level 59!

1st Revolution Level 60!

1st Revolution Level 72!

1st Revolution Level 83!

Whoosh!

After three breaths, an intensely bright white light flashed. Ye Sheng’s level broke into 1st Revolution Level 90!

Ye Sheng’s heart trembled.

He had reached the level of a ‘Cangming Squad’ member in just three breaths.

If he were to meet the ‘Cangming Squad’ now, Qiu Shan and the others would surely be astounded.

Upon reaching 1st Revolution Level 90, the Experience required to Level Up became immense.

Gaining one Level now was equivalent to the total Experience needed to go from Level 0 to Level 50.

It required time to grind slowly.

This was the case for Qiu Shan and the others in the Cangming Squad; after reaching 1st Revolution Level 90, advancing even one Level became extremely difficult.

But this seemed to be no issue at all for Ye Sheng.

The Nine Heavens Divine Thunder covered a radius of a hundred miles, and the number of Ghost Creatures slain was truly immense.

Wave after wave of Ghost Creatures fell, all transformed into a vast sea of Experience filling Ye Sheng’s Experience Bar.

Even at Level 90, his progress still felt like riding a rocket!

1st Revolution Level 92!

1st Revolution Level 94!

1st Revolution Level 96!

1st Revolution Level 99!

Finally, Ye Sheng’s body shuddered, and a blinding white light erupted from him.

His Level soared to 1st Revolution Level 100!

“Max Level!”

At this moment, Ye Sheng was stunned!

His Level Up speed was too outrageous!

In just about ten breaths, he had reached the Max Level of 1st Revolution Level 100!

1st Revolution Level 100!

An Expert of this caliber could practically roam freely in the wild, as long as they didn’t venture into overly dangerous secret realms or dungeons.

If he were to meet the ‘Cangming Squad’ again, he alone could suppress all five of them.

This was no exaggeration!

1st Revolution Level 100 already belonged to the Peak Tier among 1st Revolution Experts.

To grow stronger, the next step was to cross into the ‘2nd Revolution Ghost Master Tier’.

The 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Tier was another Metamorphosis!

“I’ve reached the limit!”

For a moment, Ye Sheng’s heart surged with emotion, as if in a dream—his progress was too fast.

What took others over a decade of accumulation, he had achieved in an instant.

“I can’t continue to Increase!”

Ye Sheng glanced around; the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder was still sweeping through the Ghost Creatures, but his Level remained completely unchanged.

In this world, once you reach Level 100, no amount of Experience is useful anymore.

You must advance to the next major realm to continue growing.

In other words, Ye Sheng had to enter the 2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm to keep progressing!

“2nd Revolution Ghost Master Realm?”

“Let’s not think about that for now; I’ll deal with it later. There are other things to do!”

Ye Sheng shook his head and looked across the hundred-mile radius, his eyes instantly turning red.

At this moment, beams of light of various colors shot into the sky within the hundred-mile radius.

These were the equipment auras reflecting from dropped equipment, forming light beams visible from afar.

The higher the equipment’s grade, the brighter the light beam.

Each light beam represented a piece of equipment.

The Nine Heavens Divine Thunder had nearly annihilated all Ghost Creatures within the hundred-mile radius, naturally dropping a massive amount of equipment!

As Ye Sheng looked around, among the various light beams, there were many high-grade pieces of equipment.

“That’s a golden light beam, representing a ‘Gold Tier Equipment’!”

Ye Sheng’s breathing grew rapid.

Looking further, he found that bronze light beams were the most numerous.

Bronze light beams indicated Bronze Equipment, which were the densest in number.

Next were numerous silver light beams, representing Silver Tier Equipment.

Golden light beams were fewer but still numbered in the hundreds.

Even…

What made Ye Sheng’s breathing quicken was that he actually saw quite a few dark golden light beams.

Dark golden light beams!

These represented Dark Gold Tier Equipment!

In this world, equipment grades are divided into:

White, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Dark Gold, Legendary (Orange), Mythical (Red)!

Among these, Gold Tier equipment is already remarkable.

Dark Gold Equipment is a treasure among treasures, rarely seen!

The Cangming Squad is powerful enough, yet the entire squad doesn’t even have a single piece of ‘Dark Gold Equipment’.

This shows just how precious equipment of this tier is.

And now, with a single glance, Ye Sheng saw more than ten radiant Dark Gold pillars shining brightly.

“That’s over ten pieces of ‘Dark Gold Equipment’.”

“Struck gold!”

Ye Sheng’s breathing grew slightly heavy.

Then, he didn’t dare to delay any longer.

With so much equipment, it was likely that many nearby Experts were already eyeing it covetously.

If he didn’t collect it soon, there could be big trouble.
