Chapter 350: 168, Divine Skill! _3

“Master, did you pass the fifth layer?” Chen Guang looked at Lin Qing incredulously.

For an intelligent being with a “three-no” setting like her, showing this expression already indicated the shock it had on her.

If it were a normal intelligent being, they would surely be screaming in shock right on the spot.

“Just luck, I died instantly on the sixth layer.” Lin Qing shook his head.

“Master, the sixth layer of Star Abyss is a difficulty that only the councilmen of the Star Patrol Council can pass.”

Chen Guang couldn’t help but say: “And you haven’t even acquired the Original Level Divine Position, normally passing the fourth layer would be difficult enough, yet you passed the fifth layer? Even the Original Level clerics on Earth, some of them can’t pass the fifth layer.”

On Earth, Original Level clerics can explore the Celestial Vault Islands on the Second Cosmic Network, having a higher probability of obtaining high-grade Holy Texts, much higher than normal Level One civilizations.

That means–

If we look at the Original Level clerics across the Level One civilizations in the Cosmic Starry Sky, most of them only have the power of the fourth layer of Star Abyss!

Those who can pass the fifth layer of Star Abyss are definitely among the minority of Original Level clerics.

Someone without even the Original Level Divine Position, yet able to pass the fifth layer of Star Abyss, could definitely shock countless people!

“I just brute-forced my way through.” Lin Qing shook his head.

“Then master would be counted among the ones with strong defenses among the councilmen of the Star Patrol Council.” Chen Guang speculated.

Lin Qing smiled slightly and said: “Let’s look at the Star Abyss rankings.”

Chen Guang nodded, immediately pointing a finger, causing a list with black background and golden characters to appear in mid-air.

“Master, you’re currently ranked 99th, just inside the top 100.” Chen Guang said.

“99th?” Lin Qing nodded slightly, “It’s not as high as I thought. I ranked in the three hundreds when I passed the third layer, and now just the top 100 after passing the fifth?”

“Master, the strength needed to pass the third layer of Star Abyss includes only a few who have Chuanxing Towers, but for the fifth layer, almost everyone certainly possesses Chuanxing Towers.”

Chen Guang said: “Furthermore, the Star Abyss trial also evaluates based on the number of demons slain, the time consumed, and life force expended. For the same layer of Star Abyss, the rankings obviously vary.”

Lin Qing was enlightened.

He had slaughtered his way through the third layer of Star Abyss directly, spending little time and sustaining no damage, certainly attaining a high rank at that level.

However, for passing the fifth layer, he didn’t kill even one demon, brute-forcing his way through. Although he was unscathed and didn’t take much time, his evaluation wasn’t high, making his rank at the fifth layer mid-to-low.

“Given this, there are probably only dozens in the urban circle capable of taking my life.”

Lin Qing contemplated.

The Star Patrol Council has the largest power and the highest ratio of strong individuals. More than half of the Original Level clerics in the urban circle would join the Star Patrol Council, and just the councilmen number twenty-two, most of whom can pass the fifth layer.

After all, strong individuals from various factions mostly join the Star Patrol Council to gain its benefits.

Or rather…

As long as Earth’s cosmic citizens haven’t received enough benefits, they would almost certainly join the Star Patrol Council. Only the highest level of Earth’s powers like Qi Lingxiao disregard the Star Patrol Council.

Calculating the urban circle, there are at least thirty to forty Original Level clerics, the true high tier of the urban circle.

Adding those top-level Star rank individuals, and some with sub-accounts, being ranked 99th is normal.

“Regardless, master, with your current strength passing the fifth layer of Star Abyss is already amazing.”

Chen Guang exclaimed: “Only three years of cultivation, and you passed the fifth layer of Star Abyss without acquiring the Original Level Divine Position– in Level One civilizations, you’re considered a legendary unparalleled genius. Now you can easily pass the trial for the Original Level Divine Position of Commander!”

Lin Qing nodded slightly, showing no emotion.

From the moment he awakened Authority and became a Divine’s Messenger, it was destined that he would crush the geniuses of Level One civilizations.

But the trial for the Original Level Divine Position of Commander, he hadn’t taken it seriously.

Even when competing with other participants in the Original Level Divine Position trial, considering that rare clerics are generally strong, there’s nothing to fear at the Original Stage.

Possessing multiple sets of Holy Texts gives a certain chance of success, not to mention mastering powerful Divine Skills.

People like Yan Tianquan with only regular divine positions, even marked with three sets of Holy Texts, still struggle to obtain rare divine positions in the Original Stage trials.

–Unless they master Divine Skills.

But Lin Qing understood that his future competitors would be different.

The Divine Son trial will undoubtedly pit him against those who are Divine’s Messengers.

Most were likely from at least Second-level civilizations!

Lin Qing now confirmed– Divine’s Messengers in battle mainly possess Pseudo Divine Bodies, not particularly outstanding, their biggest advantage being understanding the essence of power, making it easier to master Divine Skills than others.

He didn’t need to think to know that future Divine Son trials would have him competing against numerous Divine’s Messengers skilled in Divine Skills!

Such immense competition pressure goes without saying.

“99th…”

Lin Qing shook his head slightly, “This level in the urban circle is upper tier, but far from challenging other Divine’s Messengers in competition…”

He could only hope for the Divine Skills possessed by those Divine’s Messengers, he needed to master Detection Secret Techniques soon.

“The next layer of Celestial Vault Islands is just about a year away.”
