Chapter 270 The Difference Between Level 9 and God

Chapter 270 The Difference Between Level 9 and God
Everything in the universe has a corresponding limit, especially when it comes to devouring.

Lu Cang wanted to test where the other party's limit really was.

Since it's not a life-or-death battle, there's no need to be overly cautious or go all out.

Lu Cang looked at the death date displayed above the other person's head.

He has lost ten years of his life fighting this far.

Unlike other people with whom he had no grudges, he was a follower of Ertimi, so Lu Cang naturally had no intention of letting him go.

call!
The wind howls—

The magic power surged into the other person's body like a vortex, and Lu Cang could visibly feel the other person getting stronger.

Getting stronger and stronger!

Seeing his magic being torn apart, Lu Cang conjured two scimitar-like blades in his hands! These blades were so sharp that cutting through magic was as easy as tearing apart a canvas!
The magic aimed at him will be sliced open head-on!

Oh?
It's not just about absorption, but also about breaking through magic?
Lu Cang raised his hand again, and even more magic descended!

Elements rained down from all directions!
But we saw his body moving faster and faster, and the speed at which he tore apart the magic also increased!
They actually have such combat power?

So many spells couldn't suppress him for a while... He truly lives up to his reputation as the nemesis of magicians.

If it were anyone else, they would probably be dead by now.

However, although the opponent seems to be standing firm now, they are actually still in a state of being suppressed.

Ice and flowing water had covered his body.

His skin began to tear.

The body is beginning to break down!
This is "exudative scalpel".

Meanwhile, the snow and ice all around seemed to be reflecting his past.

I saw pieces of ice.

It was as if I saw my own tragic past, the past of joining the molting rose and becoming the skin-stealer.

To become a skin-stealer, one must be fully conscious and personally peel off one's own skin.

And at this time...

This pain is reflected in my eyes!

It stirred up countless memories for him.

"No... I'm not in pain anymore!"

"I am already a skin snatcher, I don't need to go through that again!"

"I now……"

I suddenly realized what was happening!
But then he discovered that his body was already burning fiercely!
"It seems this is your limit."

Lu Cang's voice came from behind.

He turned his head abruptly and saw Lu Cang's figure very close to him.

The experience I just had suddenly come back to me.

I was clearly in the middle of a battle, so why did I suddenly start reminiscing about the past?

Illusion?

It was that momentary lapse in concentration that caused him, who was still struggling to hold on, to finally be overwhelmed by the overwhelming magic!

Flames scorched upwards!

His doom was already sealed...

"It seems that the amount of magic you can absorb is ultimately limited."

"Otherwise, even the flames burning you right now, you should be able to swallow them."

Lu Cang looked at the other person calmly.

His calm tone made it sound as if he were recording experimental data.

In that instant, he felt like a lab rat.

The difference between the two is so great that it can be described as a joke.

Ha ha……

tease?
Your physical body is, well, acceptable.

If it were offered to Lady Artemis as a vessel for her descent into the world, it wouldn't be bad...

Losing to him actually proves his worth.

There are no losses in losing this battle.

In any case, everyone has one chance to take on the challenge.

If someone dies, they're dead. The outcome of this battle doesn't matter anymore...

After you leave and return to the mortal world, I will skin you alive.

Lu Cang watched silently as the other's physical form shattered in the flames, fell to the ground, and dissipated into dust and ashes. He seemed to be smiling even in his final moments.
Meanwhile, the opponent's death date has also been reset to zero.

I'd like to see how he would die if I killed him in this deathless space.

A hazy, gray figure emerged from the gray mist and raised its hand.

The plan is to bring this skin snatcher back to life.

But this time he raised his hand.

He let out a slightly puzzled sound.

"what?"

"It seems that someone has guided him and allowed him to temporarily leave this special space."

"He withdrew from the event."

Aegis Mass's voice carried a hint of regret.

Oh, this must be a sign that my death is imminent.

It's a pity I couldn't witness his death.

Then, Lu Cang looked up again.

Aside from the fact that Aegis is an illusion and not the real body, and therefore cannot foresee the other party's death date.

Every single one of them also has a countdown to death.

If you want to.

That would actually be a good opportunity to kill them all here.

However, simply looking at it takes some effort; even after several hours of watching, you can't kill many people.

Staring at them for an hour would only reduce your lifespan by fifty years.

No grievance or enmity.

It's not worth it.

Lu Cang concealed his aura once again.

The three battles were quite enjoyable, all against the inheritors of the gods, which can be considered as putting the principles of combat into practice.

If it were placed before...

Such battles alone are certainly not enough for a perfect advancement.

But in today's context, it's more than enough.

Suddenly another voice rang out: "I challenge you, Yelia."

This time, it's not a challenge to myself?
Lu Cang looked in the direction of the sound and saw a girl with long, straight black hair facing Yelia.

this person……

He's from the Dark Church, a successor to Naraku, right?
I heard that the Light and Dark churches have a good relationship.

Lu Cang quietly left the scene, but suddenly heard several shouts coming from behind.

"I'm going to challenge that guy Adelaide!"

"I want to challenge Lida!"

In an instant, everyone else began to choose their own challenge.

They no longer consider Lu Cang as an opponent.

Uh... you guys really don't have the heart of a strong person.

Shouldn't we be brave enough to challenge the strong? Why are we starting to target the weak?

Lu Cang retreated to Kumironi's side.

Kumironi smiled and looked at Lu Cang beside him: "Little Lu Cang, you've gotten much stronger."

Lu Cang: "Hehe, it's alright."

"Sister Kumironi, aren't you planning to challenge anyone, but would you like to exchange some points?"

Kumironi smiled helplessly: "I'm not good at offensive combat."

Lu Cang glanced at the score above his head.

Ugh.

If possible, I'd like to share some with Cumiloni.

However, it seems that the only way to exchange scores right now is through challenges.

Not knowing the specific purpose of the points, Lu Cang couldn't afford to lose them all.

After all, the first stage was just a matter of finding something that matched my major. That's how I accumulated so many points.

If what follows are all things I'm not good at, then there's nothing I can do.

The battle below has begun.

The Dark Church successor named Luo Yan actually possesses a divine artifact.

The arena was filled with a mix of light and darkness, the light being particularly aggressive, launching attacks from all directions that were difficult to react to!
However, darkness had already spread throughout the space like a giant, drawn-out net!

Holy flames scorched.

But it could not burn away the darkness that followed.

On the other side, Lida of Wind and Thunder was already engaged in battle with a powerful being who could summon countless different kinds of monsters.

Summoning system?
There are even summoners here.

No wonder no one could tell her background. Summoners can't really tell anything just by looking at her appearance and aura.

On the other side, fighting Adelare was a half-man and half-goat wielding a hammer.

This person's profession is...

blacksmith?

Can blacksmiths also fight?

One of the guys who was farming equipment wasn't just sitting quietly watching from the sidelines... he actually came up on stage to fight.

It's not that Lu Cang has any occupational discrimination.

However, the professions of blacksmith and scholar are similar; both are non-combat professions.

Can we really expect Yuna to fight?

Oh wow—

It doesn't seem so bad after all?

The half-goat man pulled out many weapons he had never seen before, and even in the midst of battle, he forged the enemy's attacks into his own weapons.

Even Ansu, who was in her sea of consciousness, couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

"Temporary forging technique..."

"I never imagined that this ancient forging technique would still be in use today."

Lu Cang asked, "An Su, do you know this person's background now?"

Ansu: "The art of forging, the blacksmith's profession, someone's legacy, could it be... that person's legacy?"

While An Su was making his own guesses, Lu Cang had already read his thoughts.

"Yaromochi, the forging and strengthening master".

The true god of forging ascends to godhood through the profession of blacksmithing.

“Ansu, speaking of which, I haven’t asked you yet.”

What exactly is the difference between a level 9 job advancement expert and a god?

I've been thinking about other things lately.

I only just remembered this now.

There's no rush to ask this question; you can ask it anytime, since I'm still far from reaching level 9.

But this is just the right time; there's no need for a fight, and the root cause has just been answered.

I also happened to have some free time to learn about this.

"If you ask about the difference, it's not that big, but it's not that small either. In terms of strength, there is no difference between a level 9 job changer and a newly promoted god."

"They are all manifestations of taking a path to its extreme."

"If we're talking about a battle, it's probably hard to say who will win."

It's a close call.

Lu Cang had already wondered why both level 9 and godhood started from level 8 for advancement.

I always hear that level 9 job changers are comparable to gods.

But it has always been just a rumor, and like Loren's unofficial list, its authenticity is hard to say.

Now, with confirmation from Ansu, a true level 9 job changer, this rumor has been put to rest.

More importantly, Ansu can no longer deceive herself; this news cannot be false.

"But the difference is that becoming a god is a manifestation of abandoning one's origin."

"Becoming a god means abandoning the principles, transforming the power of one's profession into a divine position, and breaking away from the identity of a job changer. From then on, they are no longer bound by the principles and become part of the laws represented by their profession."

"Those who have completed the Level 9 job change are still adhering to the principles and have not deviated from their original purpose."

Something sounds off, like job changers are a constraint?

Is becoming a god the only right path?
Ansu chuckled as she finished speaking, "Hehe... I know you have some questions now."

"But in reality, a level 9 job changer has more freedom than a god."

"Level 9 has not many constraints. Level 9 has fully practiced its own professional path. In the end, all that is left is to become the origin."

"And God's constraints... are far more numerous than you think."

Ansu always leaves half the story untold, seemingly used to being a riddle teller; these old folks just love to keep things in suspense.

However, everything it was thinking had already been fully revealed in Lu Cang's mind.

God's constraint lies in the profession itself.

After ascending to godhood, because one has chosen to go against the source, one will face the backlash from the source.

They can only remain in the divine realm, unable to return to the mortal world.

If you want to get rid of this backlash.

This would require performing a world-class ritual that could be described as absurd. If it were the God of Death, then the death of all life in the world would be necessary to completely break free from the backlash of the origin and descend into the world in its complete form.

From this perspective, God's constraints are indeed quite significant.

On the other hand, level 9 job changers, despite possessing god-like strength, have no limitations.

What Sheng Yi said was absolutely right.

Becoming a god is a hoax.

If given a choice, it's better not to become a god...

However, even those who advance to level 9 have a drawback: their lifespan.

Although its lifespan is significantly extended compared to level 8, it is still ultimately limited.

A lifespan of just over a thousand years cannot be considered longevity.

It has great power but no substance.

In contrast, God's lifespan is almost infinite.

While communicating with An Su in his mind, Lu Cang observed the three battles. The battles on different battlefields were all spectacular in their own way.

And the outcome of the battle was truly beyond my expectations.

I never expected that the blacksmith would actually win in the end.

I never expected that Yelia would lose.

On the other side, the summoner also defeated Lida.

That's true; they had already seen the opponents' fights before choosing them.

Since they didn't choose to fight blindly, it means they were assessing their strength and wanted to win.

The reason for choosing an opponent in this way is that one feels somewhat confident of winning before issuing the challenge.

Thinking about it this way, this result doesn't seem so surprising.

Points can be exchanged back and forth.

Now, there are only a few people left who haven't been challenged yet.

Rhine and Kumironi had no desire to challenge others, and Lu Cang had no intention of challenging anyone either.

In the end, only 4 people were left.
