Item Description: The territory of the Blood Empire is indeed very large, but not an inch is superfluous.

After adding a new part, the Bloodstained Halberd had indeed not disappointed Huang Yi. It had undergone a tremendous improvement from before. The previous Bloodstained Halberd could probably only be considered a mid-tier Legendary weapon, but now, it had become a high-tier Legendary Equipment.

Now, Huang Yi’s strength had significantly risen because of this weapon’s enhancement.

"Your position as the number one in the world is getting more and more solid!" said Thunder God, upon seeing the attributes of the Bloodstained Halberd, he couldn’t help but sigh. In the latest World Top Player Rankings, Huang Yi was ranked first in the world, while he was the fifth. The gap between the two wasn’t too clear, but now the distance had widened a bit more.

"It’s only temporary," Huang Yi said very rationally, not letting the feeling of increased power go to his head, "Dao Feng might be coming back soon, who knows to what extent he has grown during his days of seclusion; Sharp Sword also plans to stop hiding his strength, he grabbed three National Honor Points in one go last time; Yang Yuheng will catch up to my level soon, pushing me off the first place on the World Rankings. Just within the Hero’s Continent, I have several strong rivals, and it’s very difficult to maintain the position of the world’s number one. I am now more and more in awe of Dao Feng, who managed to keep the top spot in the world for two consecutive years, while I have only held on for such a short time, and I already feel the endless pressure from behind, with everyone chasing me."

"That’s true, being second in the world is much more comfortable than being first. In fact, as long as you stay in the first group, there’s no need to chase that precarious top spot. It can be exhausting both mentally and physically. Dao Feng is a prime example!" Thunder God laughed heartily and drained a large cup of wine in one gulp.

"That’s a last resort!" Huang Yi took a small sip of wine and turning to look out the window, he continued, "No matter how much I improve, I am ultimately just a Holy Domain. I have a great enemy, the Half-Beast Holy Land, which alone has dozens of Heavenly Domain experts, and I don’t know how many Advanced and Top Holy Domain Warriors there are. Right now, they dare not come after me because of the Oskan Royal Academy’s covenant. But as soon as I go to the Central Continent, Oskan Royal Academy won’t interfere, and I will have to deal with these enemies myself. I am far from ready, I need a much greater improvement."

"Do you have any good methods now?" asked Thunder God with concern.

"There is one," nodded Huang Yi, pondering, "I can advance to a Divine Class, but the System Prompt tells me I need to meet a ’Break and Re-establish’ condition, and I have no clue what that means just yet."

"Divine Class? Break and Re-establish?" Thunder God mused over these words, his brow furrowed tightly.

...

When they left the tavern it was already deep into the night, and they went to the Teleportation Circle together. Thunder God teleported back to his Sun Island, while Huang Yi teleported to the 130th Floor of the Tower of Pantheons!

His Bloodstained Halberd had improved significantly, and he should be able to set the world record for the 130th Floor! The first person to set a record would receive a particularly generous reward, which he had already tasted before.

When he first set the world record for the 80th Floor, he obtained the Heart of Religion;

When he first set the world record for the 110th Floor, he got the Yunfan Battleship Blueprint;

When he first set the world record for the 120th Floor, he got the Dragon Tomb Map.

And now, there was another treasure of this caliber waiting for him.

Upon entering the Tower of Pantheons, Huang Yi immediately summoned the Barbarian God, and began to push forward as if he was level grinding. He was under no time pressure, no matter how long it took, as long as he cleared it, he would set a world record.

"Scorched Earth!"

"Storm of Thunder Clouds!"

"Judgment!"

"End of the World!"

Huang Yi suddenly unleashed four devastatingly wide-ranging attacks! In an instant, the sky was torn by thunder and lightning, the ground spread with scorched earth, and magma covered the surface—all while a green poisonous fog filled the air! In one fell swoop, it enveloped thousands of monsters, decimating their health points at a visibly rapid rate.

Soon, monster after monster collapsed like wheat before the scythe, transforming into experience points for Huang Yi. Only a handful of elite monsters were left struggling within the area, but under the assault of the Barbarian God, even these quickly fell in combat.

After adding a new part to the Bloodstained War Halberd, the monster spawning speed had indeed increased significantly, which Huang Yi could clearly feel.

Next, like a bulldozer, he charged forward with the Barbarian God sweeping past everything in his path, unstoppable by all.

Gradually, the number of corpses on the ground grew, now numbering in the thousands! Huang Yi suddenly crouched down and pounded the earth with his fist!

"Boom!" Although he wasn’t a Boxer, his punch still carried an overwhelming momentum! The dirt flew up, creating a huge crater as if it had been struck by artillery fire!

That punch seemed to send a signal to the earth! The once calm ground began to quiver, and the dirt broke apart as countless grayish-white skeletal hands reached out from the earth, seemingly in the thousands.

In no time, several thousand Skeletons emerged from the ground, forming a ghastly sea of grey and white, their bone joints creaking without end, turning the scene into a frightful, hellish sight.

Upon their appearance, these Skeletons automatically sought out NPCs from the Tower of Pantheons to attack, sparing Huang Yi the effort to control them. It was as if he had gained a team of thousands to aid him in solo grinding!

This skill was the attached ability of the Legendary Equipment, "Arnoshwa’s Golden Belt," which Huang Yi earned by defeating the 100th Floor of the Tower of God, called "Iron Fist Summon": Upon use, it could summon a number of Skeleton Soldiers equal to the number of fallen enemies, automatically seeking out opponents to attack. The maximum summoning could reach up to five thousand, with these Skeletons possessing 25% of Huang Yi’s attributes. The summoned would only disappear when Huang Yi’s health dropped below 2% or left combat. It consumed 5% of his health on each use and had a cooldown of one day.

Just now, Huang Yi deliberately killed over five thousand NPCs before utilizing the skill, maximizing the number of summoned Skeleton Soldiers to the full five thousand and unleashing the full might of the skill.

With the assistance of five thousand Skeletons clearing the way, Huang Yi sped forward, swiftly reaching the first boss.

"Hmm? A visitor has arrived!" The boss noticed Huang Yi and shouted a familiar line, ready to advance.

But Huang Yi was faster, immediately launching into Pursuit and racing over, thrusting his Long Spear directly at the boss and unleashing his strongest single-target skill—Heavy Judgment!

Instantly, a massive Attack Power burst from the tip of the spear, creating a blinding flash of golden light. A terrifying power, seemingly enough to move mountains, was concentrated at that very point, on the verge of exploding!

"Pfft!" Finally, the incredible power contained at the tip of the spear erupted violently upon contact with the boss, blowing out a bloody cavity! The powerful blow sent the boss flying backward, crashing heavily into the ground dozens of meters away and leaving a long trail of blood before finally coming to a stop—it couldn’t withstand even a single attack!

This time, Huang Yi was lucky enough to land a critical hit, with his Critical Hit Effect now reaching nearly triple! The damage inflicted was massively exaggerated, far exceeding his supposed Attack Power, taking away a large chunk of the boss’s health points in one go.

It was a far easier task than when his incarnation had slain the level 130 giant serpent in the Demonic Beast Mountain Range. His true self had vastly surpassed the incarnation by several degrees.

Having just landed a critical hit, Huang Yi was in an exceptionally empowered state. His Legendary Belt and freshly upgraded Bloodstained War Halberd both increased his All Attributes by a total of 8% after a critical hit, lasting for three seconds!

He immediately followed up, continuing his onslaught on the boss. The Bloodstained War Halberd danced like a phantom in his hands, enveloping the boss and leaving it with no chance to counter. The fight was a one-sided affair.

After just over ten seconds, the boss was defeated, dropping a pile of items.

Upon seeing how smoothly he defeated the first boss, Huang Yi finally relaxed, now feeling confident about clearing this level. He quickly picked up the items the boss dropped and continued to sweep forward, leaving a trail of destruction in his wake, leaving not a single survivor.

An hour later.

The last level 140 great boss of this floor fell miserably under the Bloodstained War Halberd, exploding into a pile of items!

"[System Prompt]: Congratulations! You’ve cleared the Tower of Pantheons Floor 130 solo mode in 65 minutes and 19 seconds, becoming the record creator for this floor. You will receive a generous reward!"

Finally, Huang Yi had set another new world record! It was the fourth world record he had created, making him a Pioneer. Others could only attempt to break his records now!

However, it would also be the last world record he would be able to create for a long time because the next record floor was the 140th, where the final boss was a daunting level 150! Level 150 was a major milestone that allowed access to the Advanced Holy Domain Rank and also the Second Transformation. Huang Yi would have to complete his Second Transformation before challenging it.

Then, with anticipation, Huang Yi looked forward to a box ahead. Inside was the reward for setting the world record, including the most important super prize. (To be continued.
