Lin Feng was opening treasure chests.
His current strength was barely enough to get by in the Earth Immortal Realm.
Anything higher and he would be out of his depth.
"You have opened a [Human Immortal Tier Boss Treasure Chest (Excellent)] (Four-fold Augmentation)."
"You have gained 16 points of Immortal Power."
"You have gained 8 Immortal Crystals."
"You have opened a [Human Immortal Tier Boss Treasure Chest (Legendary)] (Four-fold Augmentation)."
"You have gained 30 points of Immortal Power."
"You have gained 12 Immortal Crystals."
...
Lin Feng's expression remained unchanged.
Treasure chests of this tier could no longer stir any emotion within him.
After quickly opening these four treasure chests.
Next were the ones at the foot of the mountain.
"You have opened a [Heavenly Immortal Tier Boss Treasure Chest (Legendary)] (Eight-fold Augmentation)."
"You have gained 740 points of Immortal Power."
"You have gained 215 Immortal Crystals."
"You have opened a [Heavenly Immortal Tier Boss Treasure Chest (Epic)] (Eight-fold Augmentation)."
"You have gained 956 points of Immortal Power."
"You have gained 348 Immortal Crystals."
"You have obtained the Secret Manual of Immortal Power Refinement."
Lin Feng was a little surprised.
A Heavenly Immortal actually had the Secret Manual of Immortal Power Refinement?
This was quite something.
He put it away for now.
Next, the two Golden Immortal treasure chests were the main prize.
Although.
Based on his estimations.
The two Legendary Golden Immortal treasure chests would likely be able to be augmented to eight-fold or even higher.
But until they were augmented, he couldn't be absolutely sure.
First, he naturally augmented it to the eighth level.
This had already cost him 610 points of Immortal Power.
Then, he continued to push higher!
"Ding, you have consumed 145 points of Immortal Power, augmenting the Golden Immortal Tier Boss Treasure Chest (Legendary) to the ninth level. Immortal Power +61."
Lin Feng frowned.
This was a significant loss.
Fortunately, the first eight levels, including the evolution choices, had cumulatively yielded 2000 points of Immortal Power.
After deducting the consumption, there was still a net profit of over 1000 points.
He gritted his teeth.
And continued!
Even if he couldn't reach the twelfth level, at least he could gain experience by spending money.
"Ding, you have consumed 205 points of Immortal Power, augmenting the Golden Immortal Tier Boss Treasure Chest (Legendary) to the twelfth level. Immortal Power +76."
Fortunately, it had still reached the twelfth level.
A hint of joy finally appeared on Lin Feng's face.
"Ding, Golden Immortal Tier Boss Treasure Chest (Legendary) augmented to the twelfth level, you have gained three additional evolution choices."
"Choice 1 (A): Gain an additional treasure."
"Choice 2 (B): Immortal Power recovery speed increased by 15%."
"Choice 3 (A): Immortal Power +1500."
"Choice 4 (s): 20% chance to gain three additional treasures."
"Choice 5 (A): Immortal Power recovery speed increased by 25%."
Lin Feng chose 2, 3, and 5.
At this moment, his Immortal Power recovery speed greatly impacted his efficiency.
A Legendary Golden Immortal wouldn't drop anything too exceptional, so he opted for something practical.
After reaching the twelfth level, he chose to open it.
"You have opened a [Golden Immortal Tier Boss Treasure Chest (Legendary)] (Twelve-fold Augmentation)."
"You have gained 4008 points of Immortal Power."
"You have gained 1275 Immortal Crystals."
"You have obtained a Boundary Barrier Map."
It had cost 1310 points of Immortal Power to augment it to the twelfth level.
The rewards had not disappointed him.
Not only had he earned a significant amount of Immortal Power.
He had also unexpectedly obtained a treasure.
The name of this map was a bit strange, so he put it away for now.
He would investigate it after opening all the treasure chests.
...
Sakura Country.
At the edge of the level 80 map.
A large group of players were frantically attacking a transparent light barrier.
Roughly speaking.
There were at least ten squads.
Behind them, a player dressed in luxurious attire was shouting loudly.
"Warriors, speed up!"
He was none other than Sakura Country's top expert, Yamamoto Ichiro.
Here, he had accidentally received an ultra-high difficulty quest.
And discovered what was called a "Boundary Barrier"!
According to the system's description, opening it would directly connect the maps of the corresponding countries.
At that time.
He could lead his powerful warriors to conquer maps in other countries.
Thinking of this.
He couldn't help but become excited again.
The frantic attacks from these warriors were not aimed at breaking the barrier.
He could clearly see the health bar of the barrier before him.
A full 100 billion!
This was something that players at the current stage could not possibly break.
The role of these warriors was merely to keep the barrier in an attacked state.
Otherwise, it would immediately fall into a dormant state.
And would be unattackable for 24 hours.
To reawaken it would be troublesome.
After 24 hours.
Within half an hour, 1% of its health, meaning 1 billion damage, would need to be dealt to return it to an attackable state.
His current strength, in full condition and with maximum critical hits, could only deal tens of millions of damage at most, making it impossible to reawaken it at will.
However.
He had already reached level 70.
And would soon complete his seventh transcendence.
He believed that with the help of a few powerful warriors from his clan, he would be able to attempt to break the barrier then.
As for why he didn't wait for the 24 hours to pass?
It was because he had always harbored concerns about the mysterious Yang Jian Qingming from the Huaxia server.
The other party's progress had been too rapid.
It was rumored that he could already contend with Earth Immortals.
Dealing hundreds of millions of damage was likely not difficult for him.
He only had this opportunity because he had the first move.
Otherwise.
If the other party also discovered the existence of the Boundary Barrier.
He might not be able to wait 24 hours before this glory was no longer his.
As he was contemplating.
Suddenly.
A team excitedly approached to report.
"Yamamoto-kun, our warriors have discovered a level 70 Legendary Boss."
"Your transcendence quest target has appeared!"
Yamamoto Ichiro's eyes gleamed with joy.
"Let's go, hurry and lead me to transcend!"
Before leaving, he glanced at the Boundary Barrier whose health bar was barely moving and sneered in his heart.
"When I return, it will be time to attack!"
"This time, I will shock the world!"
...
Heaven Realm.
Cloud Luo Palace.
"Reporting to the Ancestor, the life tokens of the two Golden Immortals we sent down to the mortal realm have both shattered. Their souls are recuperating in the Soul Returning Pool, and they are expected to revive in 8 hours."
Ao Li's face turned ashen.
"You mean to say that two Golden Immortals and a few Heavenly Immortals sent to the mortal realm were still unable to deal with the alien who killed Sheng'er?"
The people in the hall were silent for a few seconds before replying.
"Replying to the Ancestor, that is indeed the case."
"That alien is powerful, and neither of the two senior brothers were a match..."
"Nonsense!"
The rage in Ao Li's eyes was almost burning.
His entire body was trembling slightly.
This was an absolute humiliation!
When had the noble Golden Immortals become so vulnerable?
Or was this alien truly that strong?
He felt extremely stifled and furious.
After a moment.
His eyes turned cold, and his voice deepened.
"Prepare the realm-crossing formation and send one Golden Immortal down!"
His words shocked everyone below.
The man reporting to him turned pale.
"Ancestor, this is a violation of heavenly laws..."
Ao Li glared at him coldly.
"Are you refusing to obey my command?"
The man swallowed and resignedly said.
"This disciple obeys the master's command!"
Ao Li nodded with satisfaction.
A cold glint flashed in his eyes.
No matter how powerful an alien was in this realm, they were probably still at the level of an ordinary mortal in their own world, right?
If a Golden Immortal descended.
Even if the other world's tier was too low, limiting the Golden Immortal's power.
It should still be relatively easy to find a specific alien and obliterate them.
Since they were difficult to deal with in this realm.
Then.
He would send someone to descend to the other party's world.
And tear them to shreds!
