Multiverse Skill System

"It can last for a few minutes at most, that's enough."

The pain actually relieved Yi Shuihan; he had had enough time to escape.

When they arrived at the exit, it was blocked by a stone wall. This was probably a wall of despair for the other True Saints, because its hardness was such that even Yi Shuihan's full-force attack could only create a small crack, and the others could not break it in a short time.

In this race against time, Yi Shuihan could no longer afford to conceal his strength. He unleashed the full power of his world, entering his true peak state.

Even so, Yi Shuihan still managed to blast open the stone wall with his fist, which was imbued with the power of thunder, more than ten times.

As he rushed out of the building, the green energy still relentlessly pursued him. The light barrier that he and the other freshmen had broken together earlier had now been restored to its original state.

Fortunately, it was Yi Shuihan who shattered it with a single punch; otherwise, any other freshman would have faced certain death.

Besides the light shield, Yi Shuihan saw it quickly recover and then block the green energy inside, at which point he breathed a sigh of relief.

After several unsuccessful attempts to break through the light shield, the green energy began to slowly contract and eventually returned to the building. Everything seemed to have returned to normal, but only Yi Shuihan knew that hundreds of new lives were buried there.

"The secret realm is indeed a secret realm."

With a complex expression, Yi Shuihan could only offer a moment of silent mourning for the new students who had perished.

After standing there for a while, Yi Shuihan finally gave up the idea of ​​going in to take another look. He had a vague feeling that the next time he went in, he might face something even more terrifying than the unknown green aura. Besides, of all the things inside, the compass was the only one he was interested in, and the compass was already in his hands.

Thinking of the compass, Yi Shuihan wanted to take it out and take a look, but the next moment his expression suddenly changed drastically.

The compass that he had clearly stored in his portable world suddenly turned into the same green mist as the one in the building when he held it in his hand again, corroding a layer of skin off his hand.

Subconsciously, I let go, and the green mist that the compass transformed into reached the ground, then seeped into the ground and disappeared.

"This is......"

A green bead lay quietly where the green aura had disappeared, radiating a verdant glow.

Chapter 1266, The Secret Realm Ends

"So, I guess it wasn't a wasted trip after all?"

As he picked up the green bead, information about it appeared in Yi Shuihan's mind, bringing a slight smile to his face.

The green bead has a very simple function: to release the green energy that Yi Shuihan saw before. It's unclear how it's converted, but as long as it's continuously supported by the power of the True Saint's realm, the green energy will be released continuously, and at a fairly fast speed.

For a True Saint like Yi Shuihan, this alone is not a big deal. After all, in battle, the enemy will naturally dodge when they see you releasing green energy, and there will be no time for the green energy to surround them.

Green Pearl's green aura can still be concealed. If a trap is set in advance, the scene of Yi Shuihan and the others in the building can be recreated, as long as a sturdy place can be found in advance.

"This gives people another trick up their sleeve."

The effect of the green pearl was merely an unexpected bonus; Yi Shuihan had hoped that the compass would have a greater impact.

Afterwards, Yi Shuihan continued his journey through the secret realm.

......

Outside the secret realm of the Multiverse United High School, Wordsworth and other mentors stood quietly not far away. Today was the day the secret realm would end, and the new students inside would be teleported out.

"I wonder how they are doing, how many of them survived? I hope at least two-thirds of them survived."

The newcomer's secret realm has always had a high mortality rate because many newcomers are entering the realm for the first time. They haven't adjusted their mindset, underestimate the realm, and ultimately lose their lives. No amount of reminders can change this; only those who have experienced it firsthand will truly understand.

When the time came, the entrance to the secret realm began to shake violently, and then figures began to appear.

"here it is......"

The first few freshmen who came out looked bewildered.

"It's out, it's finally out."

The new student, realizing his situation, said excitedly. It was clear that he was very happy, which suggested that he must have had a bad time in the secret realm.

"How could it be at this time? We were so close, so close to getting that treasure."

"Why didn't you find it sooner? If you had, I wouldn't have lost an upgrade item."

Joy, anger, sorrow, happiness, excitement, agitation, sadness, fear, and relief—all kinds of emotions can be seen here, staging a grand drama of life.

"Class 1, come here, your mentors are here."

"Class 5, Class 2, over here."

“I am Holmes. Everyone in the class, come over if you hear me.”

The mentors began to gather the freshmen from their respective classes, and soon the freshmen at the entrance of the secret realm began to disperse.

"So it's out already? Speaking of which, how does the school determine the freshmen's gains in the secret realm? Do they just make the freshmen bring out their spoils and compare them?"

Yi Shuihan was finally teleported out of the secret realm. Compared with the other freshmen, he looked much calmer and did not look like a freshman who had just come out of the secret realm. He seemed like a senior who often entered and exited the secret realm.

Upon finding Wordsworth, Yi Shuihan noticed that Wordsworth's expression was not good. After asking, he learned that more than 10 people in the class had been confirmed dead, and only 11 were gathered here now. Many others had not yet returned, and the situation was not good.

Yi Shuihan was only slightly moved by the deaths of many of his classmates, but his emotions were not greatly affected. Firstly, he didn't really have much of a relationship with these so-called classmates, and secondly, he had already anticipated the current situation. This secret realm was a bit of a "surprise" for him, let alone the freshmen in his class whose strength was generally low.

To be honest, it's already a pretty good result that more than ten people survived. Of course, Yi Shuihan wouldn't say this to everyone's face.

The atmosphere was somewhat somber. Even Ba Tianhun didn't come to talk to Yi Shuihan at this moment, but stayed there quietly, looking like he had been hit hard. Yi Shuihan was naturally happy about this.

After waiting for less than an hour, the gate to the secret realm closed, which meant that all the new students inside had come out. Those who didn't come out had only one fate: they died inside the secret realm.

In Yi Shuihan's class, 13 students were ultimately confirmed to have survived, meaning more than half of them died. This was considered a relatively high number of casualties among the 99 classes of freshmen.

The final rankings on the list were not confirmed until several days later. Yi Shuihan's class was ranked 10th, which greatly surprised the other freshmen in the class. Even Wordsworth was quite surprised.

Yi Shuihan's individual ranking wasn't the best, first place, but third. The fact that her individual ranking made the other students in the class understand why their class ranking was tenth was entirely due to Yi Shuihan.

Besides Yi Shuihan, Ba Tianhun also had a good result, ranking 32nd. Lu's performance was somewhat disappointing, ranking 118th.

"It's quite an eye-opener to see how they're ranked like this. And I'm only third. How much benefit did the first and second place get? There are still some strong people among the freshmen!"

Regarding how the rankings were arranged, Yi Shuihan received a vague explanation from Wordsworth, which was said to be a powerful secret technique that allowed one to directly ask the Dao in the dark for answers, and each question would be accurate.

Yi Shuihan was both interested in and worried about this secret technique. If the other party used it, would all of Yi Shuihan's secrets be revealed? In the end, he could only hope that the system would be more effective.

The class ranked tenth, and the school rewarded each student with ten boundary points, which was quite generous. It is said that the class ranked first received one thousand boundary points, the second-ranked student received five hundred, the third-ranked student received one hundred, and the fourth to tenth-ranked students received ten boundary points.

As for the individual rewards, Yi Shuihan, who came in third place, received quite a lot, with a total value of no less than two thousand boundary points.

The school is quite considerate of the freshmen and hasn't announced what the individual awards are, which saves the freshmen some trouble. If the awards were actually announced, I guess many upperclassmen would be willing to "exchange" information about them.

From Wordsworth, Yi Shuihan even learned that the rewards for each freshman's secret realm were not the same. The rewards distributed each time were related to the prestige of the ranking. If the secret realm was too easy, the rewards would not be much.

In comparison, class ranking rewards are relatively fixed, while individual rewards vary greatly. Sometimes the individual reward for first place is not as good as the individual reward for first place in the class. Of course, there are also cases where the individual reward for first place far exceeds that for first place in the class.

Upon learning all this, Yi Shuihan could only say that the school had truly gone to great lengths.

Chapter 1267, Further Advancement in Strength, Accepting a Mission

After the Freshman Secret Realm ended, another class activity time arrived. Under Wordsworth's leadership, everyone completed many tasks issued by the school, gradually transforming from freshmen into seniors and fully integrating into the great group of the Multiverse United High School.

Originally, this group activity was supposed to last for about a hundred years, but Yi Shuihan proposed to act alone in the 10th year. He really had no interest in continuing to complete those incredibly simple tasks with these classmates. Accompanying these classmates to do tasks did not improve him at all. On the contrary, the safety of these classmates was greatly improved because of Yi Shuihan's presence.

Yi Shuihan's strength was undeniable, especially after he once displayed a strength that even surpassed Wordsworth's. As a result, the students in the class completely changed their attitude towards him. Apart from Ba Tianhun, who still frequently bothered this so-called vice leader, everyone else held him in great awe.

No one dared to force Yi Shuihan to stay, so Yi Shuihan finally regained his freedom.

Having gained his freedom, Yi Shuihan spent the rest of his life living in the Enlightenment Pavilion, where he stayed for decades without ever leaving.

"It's almost time. I can already feel that it won't be long before I break through."

Yi Shuihan is currently comprehending the Dao of Thunder. Over the decades, his Dao of Thunder has come very close to the level of the 6th floor of the Tower of Babel, and he may break through at any time.

The breakthrough went even more smoothly than Yi Shuihan had anticipated. In the second year after he sensed that he was capable of breaking through, he easily broke through the bottleneck of the sixth level, and his strength advanced another step.

The time required to break through from the sixth to the seventh level of the Tower of Babel is not several decades, but at least a thousand years. Therefore, Yi Shuihan did not continue to comprehend the Dao of Thunder, but instead turned to comprehend the Dao of Time.

Another twenty years have passed, and the Way of Time has reached the level of the 6th floor of the Tower of Babel, which is quite fast.

Yi Shuihan continued to stay in the Enlightenment Pavilion to comprehend the Dao of Life. It took him more than three hundred years to comprehend the Dao of Life up to the sixth level of the Tower of Babel.

To comprehend a single Dao to the sixth level of the Tower of Babel in just three hundred years—that speed would definitely scare many people if word got out.

On this day, Yi Shuihan finally emerged from the Enlightenment Pavilion.

"It really is sparsely populated."

There weren't many students on the way. Ten million students isn't a lot for the entire Multiverse United University. To be honest, each student occupies an area equivalent to dozens of planets.

In the middle of the day, Yi Shuihan only saw a dozen or so students.

Upon arriving at the mission hall, Yi Shuihan finally saw quite a few students who had come to receive their missions.

"This year's freshmen are truly remarkable. The one ranked first actually obtained the inheritance of a fallen Chaos Emperor in the Freshman Secret Realm. In just a few hundred years, he has already passed the 6th floor of the Tower of Babel. Not long ago, he even made a name for himself in the virtual battlefield and entered the King rank. His future is limitless!"

"The one ranked second is not bad either. Although he is only on the 5th floor of the Tower of Babel, his physical body is amazing. He has condensed 10% of the Chaos Body, and his combat power is no less than that of the 6th floor of the Tower of Babel. He will become a king in the near future."

"It has to be said that the quality of this year's freshmen is very good. They are among the top freshmen in the school. The last freshmen with this quality was the class seven million years ago, and many of those students are now emperors or even kings."

"The one ranked third is said to have been staying in the Enlightenment Pavilion. Many organizations have tried to win him over, but they haven't had a chance to make contact yet. When he comes out, he will probably be another monstrous talent rising up."

"Enough said, the real priority is to take on missions and improve myself."

The sound of conversation reached Yi Shuihan's ears, causing a look of surprise to appear on his face.

"Not bad! This speed is about the same as mine. The inheritance of the Chaos Emperor, no wonder it suppressed me. Compared with the inheritance of the Chaos Emperor, the Chaos Treasure of the Hengmie level is nothing."

To be honest, Yi Shuihan was somewhat envious of the classmate who obtained the inheritance of the Chaos Emperor. However, this envy was only fleeting, as Yi Shuihan was no less capable! Even though the other party had the inheritance of the Chaos Emperor, it took him longer to reach the sixth level of the Tower of Babel. Although he had only just emerged, it had taken him less than a hundred years to truly reach the sixth level of the Tower of Babel. The time he spent thereafter was spent comprehending other Daos.

"My master is an existence even higher than the Chaos Emperor!"

Yi Shuihan's master was naturally the Dragon God of the Dragon Ball world. Yi Shuihan didn't understand his realm at all back then, but now he guessed that he was at least a Chaos Emperor, or even a Great Dao Emperor, because according to what his master's clone left in the Dragon Ball world said, the real body was at least two major realms stronger than the clone, while the clone was already a Saint.

“My master told me that once I became a saint, I could go to Chaos City to find him. Over the years, I have also researched information about Chaos City. It is a place that is even more difficult to enter than your Myriad Realms United University. It is full of mystery and cannot be understood by ordinary true saints. Perhaps only when I fully demonstrate my strength will I be qualified to understand Chaos City.”

Thinking of Chaos City, Yi Shuihan recalled the time he checked information about Chaos City at the company, and his expression became serious. Given his current position in the company, he lacked certain permissions to check information about Chaos City and could only find the most basic information, which shows the status of Chaos City in the myriad worlds.

"Forget it, for now I'll just focus on improving myself at school. Once I'm strong enough, all the secrets will come to me automatically."

With this in mind, Yi Shuihan temporarily put the matter of Chaos City aside. However, he never expected that the opportunity to come into contact with Chaos City would come so abruptly not long after.

Upon arriving at the task panel, Yi Shuihan began searching for tasks suitable for his current task. Soon, he selected three tasks that interested him.

"Saving a Realm: The Great World of Hammer is facing destruction. Go forth to save the lives of the Great World and obtain treasures worth hundreds of Realm Points. Suitable candidates: those on the sixth floor of the Tower of Babel or those at the King rank."

"Slay Demons: Head to the Demon Battlefield to kill the Demon of Destruction. Rewards will be given based on the Demon of Destruction's cultivation level. Minimum requirement: King rank."

"Investigate the Black Hole: A black hole has mysteriously appeared in the chaotic void and has already swallowed several large worlds. Investigate the cause of the black hole. Rewards will be issued based on the investigation results. Warning: Those with weak strength should not accept this mission."

Chapter 1268, Battlefield of Demons

The missions of the Multiverse United University are quite prestigious and impressive. Look at them, they're always talking about being saviors and investigating black holes. It's really hard to complete them without real strength.

"So which one should I choose? If I choose to save the world, I should be able to do it relatively easily with my strength. One hundred boundary points are practically free, but one hundred boundary points are nothing to me right now."

"Slaying demons is quite challenging. I've never faced any so-called demons before. Going to see these real scourges of the world is a good option."

"As for black holes, they seem simple, just need to be investigated. However, anything can happen if you actually go there. They have destroyed several great worlds. Their strength is probably at least at the level of a quasi-emperor. We are not afraid of encountering a quasi-emperor, but we are afraid of encountering a true Chaos Emperor. That would be troublesome."

After careful consideration for a moment, Yi Shuihan chose the second task: to slay the demon.

The so-called demons do not know how they were born, but only that each of them is born with the purpose of destruction. The more they destroy, the stronger they become. If they are allowed to develop unchecked, one day they will destroy all the heavens and myriad worlds and wipe out all living beings.

These evil spirits appeared as far back as the very beginning of life, and even though everyone knows how dangerous they are, no one has ever been able to eliminate them. Even the great gods cannot completely eradicate them; as soon as one batch is killed, a new batch will be born.

Ultimately, they stopped making a move. There were also demons at the level of the Great Dao Emperor, who restrained each other and rarely attacked. As for the Chaos Emperors, there were occasional battles. However, the most frequent battles were fought at the level of the True Saint. When a demon was born, even the weakest one was at the level of Gold 1 Star. The True Saint was actually just a lowly soldier.

Are you sure you want to accept the Demon Battlefield quest?

The school official in charge of confirming the mission looked at Yi Shuihan with considerable surprise, because Yi Shuihan's information indicated that he was a freshman in this year's class. The Demon Battlefield mission was usually only accepted by students who were close to graduation, as it was too dangerous.

"determine."

Yi Shuihan nodded.

"I advise you to wait until you are stronger before going, or form a team. It is too dangerous for you to go to the Demon Battlefield with your current strength. Even emperors have a high probability of dying there."

The person in charge persuaded him, saying that he just didn't want such an outstanding student as Yi Shuihan to die in a meaningless way. Judging from Yi Shuihan's current strength, he was very likely to become one of the strongest students in the school in the future.

"I'll be careful when I get there."

Yi Shuihan couldn't very well say that he was so powerful that he wouldn't be afraid even if he encountered a Chaos Emperor, so he could only say this.

In the end, Yi Shuihan accepted the mission. In the end, the other party didn't have much to do with Yi Shuihan; they were just kindly advising him because of his talent.

Having accepted the mission, Yi Shuihan didn't linger in the mission hall. He returned to his own King's Peak, where he would go to the Demon Battlefield a month later with other students who had also accepted the mission.

The so-called Demon Battlefield is the lair where demons are born. Demon Battlefields can appear anywhere in the myriad realms. The place that Yi Shuihan and his group are going to this time is a newly born demon lair. If the core of the demon lair cannot be safely destroyed, demons will be born continuously. Of course, for Yi Shuihan and his group, their main task is just to clear out some miscellaneous demons. Other matters will be handled by specialized personnel.

......

"Is this the battlefield of demons?"
