I gain permanent defense when attacked; even gods and demons can't hurt me.

As the clan leader in charge of the formation, Zi Jiuyou was the first to bear the brunt!

After shattering the formation, the pure golden divine lightning from the heavens remained undiminished in its power, striking precisely at Zi Jiuyou's massive dragon body.

"Awooo!!"

Zi Jiuyou let out a wail. His proud Purple Nether Reverse Scale was easily shattered like paper under the bombardment of the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder!

Golden lightning poured into his body, frantically destroying his life force and the essence of the demonic dragon.

Vast amounts of dragon blood cascaded down from mid-air like a waterfall, staining the earth below a dark red.

With just one strike, the high and mighty Abyss Dragon Chieftain suffered an unprecedented and devastating blow!

Zi Jiuyou's massive body convulsed violently amidst the lightning. He stared in horror at the purple-robed Taoist who seemed to be possessed by a thunder god, completely losing all will to fight.

He knew that if they didn't leave now, all three of them would really die at the hands of this old monster!

"Chen Qingxuan! I swear I will not be a dragon if I do not avenge this! You just wait!"

Zi Jiuyou endured the excruciating pain of her soul being torn apart and let out a venomous roar.

He suddenly burned the last bit of essence blood in his body, turning it into a thick cloud of blood mist, which swept up the two seriously injured and unconscious elders below.

Then, without hesitation, he smashed through the void, and with endless humiliation and resentment, he frantically tore through space and fled!

Watching Zi Jiuyou's disheveled escape, Chen Qingxuan did not choose to pursue and kill her.

Because he had used the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, his internal energy was almost completely depleted. Moreover, this was, after all, the heart of the abyss, and he understood the principle of not pursuing a cornered enemy.

Chen Qingxuan exhaled a long breath of turbid air, and the violent lightning around him gradually dissipated.

With a wave of his sleeve, he descended slowly like a purple leaf to the center of the ravaged basin below.

At this moment, Lin Yuan, standing atop the mountain of demonic corpses, let out a long sigh of relief.

He glanced at the job panel, and the countdown for the six-hour Abyss-level job change quest was completely reset at that moment!

The siege by all the beasts has ended.

As Zi Jiuyou and the other three powerful abyss warriors fled in disarray in mid-air.

The terrifying high-level dragon's might that had originally enveloped the entire Burial Grounds vanished without a trace, just like the tide.

The remaining abyssal monsters around the basin finally awoke from their slumber.

They stared blankly at the mountain of corpses of their kind piled up at their feet, then looked at Lin Yuan standing in the middle of the pool of blood.

These normally mindless killing machines were finally terrified by Lin Yuan's unreasonable counter-damage mechanism!

"Waaah—"

Several large bone wolves let out howls mixed with terror and despair.

Then, it was as if it triggered some kind of chain reaction.

Tens of thousands of abyssal monsters no longer cared about territoriality. With their tails between their legs, they fled madly in all directions of the wasteland like a frenzied black tide receding.

In less than half a minute, the once crowded Death Basin became completely empty.

All that remained was a pile of wreckage and the pungent smell of blood. Just then, the notification sound of a successful job change finally rang in Lin Yuan's mind!

[Six-hour countdown is over!]

Congratulations on successfully completing the Abyss-level job advancement assessment!

Immediately afterwards, an incomparably dazzling beam of light emanated from Lin Yuan's body.

The power within Lin Yuan was like a dormant volcano finally erupting. Highly recommend "Permanently Increased Defense When Hit, Gods and Demons Can't Damage Me!" Get straight to the exciting part. It's starting to expand wildly!

With the incredible rewards from the Abyss-level job change quest, Lin Yuan felt his limbs and bones were being reorganized, and every cell was cheering with joy.

His basic attributes have been increased by 100% from their original level!

Lin Yuan couldn't wait to open his brand new attribute panel.

Life: 234300 -> 468600

Mana: 33040 -> 66080

Strength: 4904 -> 9808

Agility: 771 -> 1542

Armor: 889700 -> 1779400

Magic Resistance: 450009 -> 900018

Spirit: 897 -> 1794

This attribute doubling is a huge boost to his dual resistances!

This is just the most basic level. Next, he successfully unlocked the second job advancement exclusive skill tree.

Furthermore, he obtained a passive skill that suited him perfectly: Counterattack Armor Shatter!

Lin Yuan immediately clicked to view the skill details.

Counterattack Armor Shatter: Passive Skill. Effect: When attacked, regardless of whether the enemy's defense is breached and actual damage is dealt, each hit will forcibly apply one stack of "Armor Shatter" mark to the attacker. Each mark reduces the enemy's defense by 5% and increases the true damage they receive from reflected damage by 5%, stacking up to 10 times!

At the very bottom of the skill description, there is also a line of notes.

Note: This passive skill cannot be upgraded by any means.

When Lin Yuan saw the effect of this passive skill, he was completely amazed.

This passive skill is truly amazing!

In the past, it might have been difficult to get a high-level monster to attack him ten times to fully stack his passive ability.

But now, with the golden rule of "Hate Law," the underlying logic of his taunt skill has been changed, allowing him to increase the amount of hatred the opponent feels towards him.

Unless the level is much higher than his, wouldn't those ten passive attacks be a piece of cake?

If you stack it to ten layers, it means you can reduce the opponent's defense by 50%, and also increase the true damage the enemy receives by 50%!

This percentage increase in damage and decrease in defense is quite significant. With this passive ability, even those high-HP, high-defense Abyss monsters will become fragile as paper in front of him!

However, when Lin Yuan saw the note saying that this divine skill could not be leveled up, he was stunned for a moment, but then he suddenly realized.

After all, the initial value of this passive ability is already ridiculously high. If you can continue to spend skill points to upgrade it, wouldn't the percentage increase reach a 100% reduction in defense after reaching the maximum level?

Could it even amplify the actual damage several times over?

If that's the case, then it's incredibly absurd.

Moreover, not needing to level up is actually a great thing, as it saves skill points and allows resources to be saved for more powerful passive skills later on.

After digesting the joy brought by the skill.

Lin Yuan took a deep breath and turned his gaze to the most important section of the professional panel—the talent panel!

After a dazzling flash of dark golden light, his long-awaited second talent finally awakened!

Second Talent: [Life Furnace] (Unique Level)!

Effect: For any enemy killed by reflected damage, 0.1% of their maximum health will be converted into pure life essence. This life essence will be permanently added to the host's base health limit, with no stacking cap!
