Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 456
Chapter 454: Unable to start from scratch, I had to start from the maximum level
[Special Mission: “Search for Fragments of the Immortal Ladder”]: In the world of Ella, gods and demons coexist, and everyone can practice magic. The seven great gods, high in the heavens, are vying for the power of faith. The Demon King leads his demonic army to crush the human, beast, and elf races. Please become the eighth great god recognized by the seven great gods.]
[In this mission, you will possess the body of a recently deceased junior mage and start from scratch.]
[Mission Reward: A fragment of the Immortal Ladder]
“It seems that this world of Ella is a magical world. This mission is a bit special. Starting from scratch. Begin the mission.”
The system attempted to separate Jiang Li’s soul from his body, leaving his body in Jiuzhou World and his soul in Ella World.
[Transferring…]
Jiang Li felt the system trying to extract his soul from his body, presumably to possess the junior mage.
However, the system, despite its might, was unable to extract Jiang Li’s soul.
Jiang Li had to relax and considerately ease the system’s difficulty.
The system successfully extracted a small portion of Jiang Li’s soul and attempted to transport it to the Ella world.
[The energy is too great, unable to transport…]
[The energy
is too great, unable to transport…] [The energy is too great, unable to transport…]
Previously, the system was able to transport Jiang Li because he was a whole being, controlling every part of his strength. But this time, the system wanted to transport a portion of Jiang Li’s soul. This portion, which Jiang Li hadn’t deliberately suppressed, contained an incredible amount of power, exceeding the system’s capacity.
[Unintelligible… Change the mission format… Transport the entire body…]
Jiang Li’s body and soul were transported to the Ella world.
“I thought I’d have to start from scratch this time. Turns out I’m venturing into another world with my Mahayana cultivation again.” Jiang Li was frustrated; he also wanted to experience how a newbie grows.
“The spiritual energy in this world is quite thin, far less than in Kyushu.” Jiang Li’s first act upon arriving in the new world was to measure the spiritual energy concentration.
So far, only the world of the bell could rival Kyushu in spiritual energy concentration.
Jiang Li was in a cemetery, with a weathered tombstone in front of him. The words “Tomb of Junior Mage Milsi” could be vaguely discerned.
“This person must be the one I originally planned to possess.”
Jiang Li used his spiritual sense to see that only a skeleton remained of the junior mage, Milsi.
“…Luckily I didn’t possess him, otherwise I would have become a white-bone demon,” Jiang Li thanked.
Come to think of it, the system’s mission had been delayed for five hundred years. According to the system’s timeline, Milsi had just died, but in reality, hundreds of years had passed, and Milsi’s remains were now nothing but bones.
“Old Bai, please reply if you get it.” Jiang Li approached Bai Hongtu to calculate the difference in the flow of time.
“No, no reply,” Bai Hongtu replied coldly from high above. He held a telecom talisman in one hand and directed the planting of trees with the other.
Seeing Old Bai’s stern face, Jiang Li remained calm and smiled.
Finally, Bai Hongtu couldn’t contain his curiosity and asked, “Which world have you been to?”
“The Ella world, probably a world of magic.”
“What is magic?” Bai Hongtu had never heard of it.
“It’s similar to magic, used in combat and daily life.”
“Oh.”
Bai Hongtu suppressed his curiosity and continued to arrange the Jiuzhou spiritual plant formation, not mentioning the trip to the new world.
Bai Hongtu still had a clear sense of priorities.
“I’ll have a good time after this is over!” Seeing the people below planting trees too slowly, Bai Hongtu took matters into his own hands.
…
“Their speaking speeds are different. Roughly speaking, five hundred years have passed in Jiuzhou, and a hundred in the Ella world.”
“Mirsi has been dead for a hundred years. No wonder it’s like this.”
Jiang Li scanned the area with his spiritual sense and found himself in the human realm. However, unlike most Jiuzhou residents, the people here had blond hair and blue eyes, somewhat similar to Li Nian’er and the others.
Jiang Li made no effort to disguise himself and swaggered towards the nearby city.
With his black hair, black eyes, and ancient attire, Jiang Li stood out, and people stared at him curiously.
However, their curiosity was limited to curiosity. There were many possibilities for his appearance, such as a lich curse, the aftereffects of magic, or self-inflicted infection. There was no need to avoid attention.
“The world of Ella is divided into four major factions: the Holy Empire of the human race, the Beast Kingdom of the orcs, the forest-dwelling elves, and the most powerful demons.”
“The demons are outnumbered, one against three, and still have the upper hand. While this is due to the lack of cooperation among humans, orcs, and elves, it also demonstrates the demons’ strength.”
“The three races have a total of seven gods, five of which are human. The gods grant the three races the power to defeat the demons by allowing them to master the use of spiritual energy, which is called mana here.”
“Those who don’t believe in the gods cannot use mana.”
“The gods also prophesied that a brave man would defeat the demon king and save the world. Every young man dreams of being a hero.”
Through a divine sense scan, Jiang Li learned that the human race has a combat class called the Adventurer. Adventurers are divided into several categories, based on their skills and magic, such as Warrior, Mage, Priest, Tank, and Assassin.
Others, while not adventurers, do know a few small spells, such as Fireball.
These are just basic life skills, not enough to qualify as a beginner mage.
Adventurers are divided into beginner, second, third, fourth, and fifth levels.
Adventurers’ main source of income comes from fighting demons. Killing a demon or selling its corpse earns them money.
“There are eight strongest individuals in this world: seven who claim to be gods, and the Demon King.”
Jiang Li rarely hears the word “god.” Gods are usually seen as a form of faith.
Some immortals, after achieving immortality, find their future uncertain and struggle to reach celestial immortality, so they seek alternative paths, using faith to increase their power.
They grew in strength not to fight for power, but to survive in the cruel world of immortals.
They protected the mortals of the immortal world, and the mortals of the immortal world believed in them. Mortals were in danger in the immortal world, and they might be sacrificed by demonic monks at any time. The appearance of gods could protect mortals.
Although the gods’ purpose was not to protect mortals, what they did was beneficial to mortals.
Now that mortals no longer existed in the immortal world, these immortals who claimed to be gods were not very skilled either, and probably did not survive the disasters that befell the immortal world.
In addition to the gods of the immortal world, there is also the Venerable Shenzang, who was fabricated by the Immortal Changcun, and is said to be a god of the extraterritorial demons.
“Both the gods and the demon king appeared over a thousand years ago. I don’t know which side was the work of the fallen immortals, or if it was both?”
“It’s too early to draw conclusions. Let’s observe.”
Jiang Li was not in a hurry and went to the Adventurer’s Guild to register as an adventurer for fun.
“Excuse me, can you register as a Mahayana adventurer here?”
The guild lady looked confused.
