For two months, Ye Yun's level remained at 69, on the cusp of his first awakening. Although he stopped spending gold on attribute points, he had been consuming the Heavenly Brew daily, his attribute points far exceeding previous levels by tens of times.
Ye Yun even felt that at this pace, he would soon break through to the Mid-tier realm. After all, both the materialized attribute points and the real-world brew were enhancing his strength. However, what surprised Ye Yun was the terrifying amount of energy required for the transition from Minor-tier to Mid-tier. Even with his accumulated strength being dozens of times greater, he still couldn't break through.
Standing on the city walls of Yun Tian City, Ye Yun gazed at the boundless continent below, his heart filled with exhilaration. As the star domains merged, Ye Yun's focus would shift towards the Nine Divine Cities. The New Mortal Continent needed to be managed by someone soon. The daily income of billions of Spirit Stones could not be missed.
"New Mortal Continent Announcement: Congratulations to the Moon Shadow Clan player 'Yue Youyi' for achieving third place, receiving 215,324 points and a self-selected legendary career armor, one thousand Spirit Stones, three Divine Spark Shards, and one Combat Power Materialization Card."
...
Suddenly, a system announcement echoed throughout the entire New Mortal Continent. A round of competitive ranking on the New Mortal Continent had concluded, and a new round of competition was about to begin.
Since Ye Yun took control of the entire New Mortal Continent, the competition had become more intense than ever before. The players from various races under Ye Yun's control numbered over fifty million. Now, these players were organizing themselves by clan as a city, placing them under Yun Tian City and then under the jurisdiction of the seven major races. According to Yue Di's statistics, there were over two hundred clans on the New Mortal Continent with populations exceeding ten thousand! Consequently, Ye Yun's sub-cities had grown to over three hundred!
Ye Yun looked at his experience points, just 3% away from reaching level 70. He wondered if he could awaken his suitable energy attribute in the first round. After all, according to the information provided by Yue Xia, the number of players who completed their first awakening at level 70 was extremely small.
With this thought, Ye Yun exchanged all his over two hundred billion Spirit Stones for free attribute points and then began to add them madly...
"System Prompt: As all of the player's attributes have broken through the 'Jing' unit's restraint, the player's life form has automatically sublimated. Please wait a moment..."
"System Prompt: Congratulations to the player for the successful sublimation of their life form. All of the player's attributes have been optimized. Please pay special attention:
1. Free attribute points must accumulate to 1 Jing before they can be added;
2. Attack values below the player's defense value will not generate mandatory damage."
"System Announcement (Cosmos): Congratulations to player 'Jie Ming' for being the first to complete life form sublimation, receiving an exclusive Spirit Tool Set*1, a Sky-Covering Formation Disk*1, and 100 billion free attribute points."
...
Ye Yun felt numb from the string of system notifications. However, this latest system prompt left him feeling helpless. Previously, he could add attribute points in units of billions. Now, they were added in units of 'Jing'. Any player facing this condition would despair, wouldn't they?

His health had become Vitality, his True Qi had become Dantian Sea, his attack corresponded to Destructive Power, and his defense had become Physical Strength. Ye Yun could understand all of this, but the numerical values left him helpless. Although he had been rewarded with one hundred billion attribute points, he was still a vast distance away from being able to add them. If his True Fire Manifestation added ten billion attribute points daily, it would take an eternity to add even once.
However, one point did satisfy Ye Yun: attacks below his defense would not cause mandatory damage. This meant that as long as Ye Yun raised his defense attribute to a certain level, he could walk sideways anywhere.
"Since I'm the first to complete life form sublimation, I should be able to awaken my attribute, right?" Ye Yun murmured, looking at the curtain of light descending from the dark sky of the New Mortal Continent. The new round of primeval beasts was about to refresh on the New Mortal Continent, and it seemed he should also level up.
As the light curtain grew brighter, the roars of primeval beasts reverberated throughout the New Mortal Continent. Simultaneously, teams of all sizes began to emerge from various territories, heading towards the primeval beasts.
To secure a good ranking, every player was fighting desperately. Even though the primeval beasts at night were far stronger than those during the day, they still ventured out in large groups to hunt.
"Captain, look..."
A player who was about to leave suddenly pointed at the distant reddening horizon and exclaimed excitedly.
Dozens of kilometers away, the entire horizon was ablaze with fierce flames, sweeping towards them like fallen leaves in autumn. Before the team members could react, their territory was instantly engulfed in flames.
"What... what the hell is going on?" A player stared at the burning flames on his palm, feeling no heat and suffering no damage. Da Feng Novel Network.
"Alright, mission canceled. Everyone go back to your own affairs early." The captain stepped forward, looking at the receding flames, and said indifferently.
"No, Captain, why was the mission canceled so abruptly? If our team falls behind again, the City Lord will likely punish us." Several team members became anxious upon hearing this. As a battle team sent by their clan to the New Mortal Continent, they also had performance assessments.
"Enough, you saw the flames just now, didn't you? That was a skill of the main city's City Lord, a skill that can cover the entire New Mortal Continent. You must have heard legends about it. Now, if we go out hunting, do you think there will be any prey left?" an older team member said.
This...
Damn it, aren't legends just rumors?
At this moment, in Yun Tian City, ten giant dragons soared from Ye Yun's body, illuminating the entire city.
