Start with the hidden role of the Great Emperor of Fengdu, and immediately unleash 100,000 Yin Soldi

All eyes were drawn to the light screen.

The entire room fell silent!

Silence reigned.

Moments later, a frenzy of discussion erupted.

"Chu Jiang chose the Abyss difficulty?!"

"Are you crazy? An F-rank Soul Guide soloing a beginner dungeon on Abyss difficulty?"

"Isn't this just pure suicide? Even though it's a beginner dungeon, I just changed jobs and haven't gotten used to my power yet. Even if I'm an S-rank class, I can only choose the hard difficulty at most."

The murmur of more than two thousand people in Awakening Square almost lifted the roof off.

The difficulty levels of dungeons are divided into Easy, Normal, Hard, Nightmare, Hell, and Abyss.

Newly promoted students, even S-rank ones, only dared to choose the difficult option. Chu Jiang's choice of the Abyss was seen by everyone as a suicide mission.

Ye Lingshan paused, turning back to look at the light screen next to the dungeon entrance.

The screen clearly displayed: Chu Jiang, F-rank Soul Guide, Abyss Difficulty.

She frowned, a complex emotion flashing through her mind.

Can't take the setback?

Ye Lingshan quickly looked away and stopped staring.

She made the right choice; she didn't need to waste her feelings on someone who had given up on himself.

"Ha ha ha ha--"

Zhou Zihao's laughter echoed across half the square. "A piece of trash is a piece of trash. He even tries to get attention by dying! The death rate in the beginner dungeon on Abyss difficulty is 99.7%. With his profession of delivering messages to the dead, he would probably be instantly killed if he went in."

Many people around laughed along with him.

No one noticed that under a sycamore tree in the corner of the square, a girl slightly raised her head.

Shen Qingyi.

Another school beauty from Jiangcheng No.1 High School, who was as famous as Ye Lingshan, but had a very low profile.

She rarely spoke, and she didn't speak at this moment either. She just glanced in the direction of the dungeon entrance, her gaze lingering for two seconds.

Then he lowered his eyes and continued flipping through the book in his hands.

......

at the same time.

The capital city, 300 meters underground.

In a dark, dark room, a broken stone tablet floats in mid-air.

The surface of the stone tablet is covered with dense ancient characters, resembling a register or a judgment.

Fragments of the Book of Life and Death.

It has been silent for three hundred years.

But at this moment, the fragments trembled violently, and the words on their surface glowed with a dark red light, as if responding to some extremely distant call.

In the darkness, a figure sitting on a stone chair slowly opened his eyes.

Those eyes had no pupils, only two eerie green phosphorescent flames.

"The power of the Fengdu Emperor... has actually reappeared?"

The sound was very soft, like an echo coming from deep underground.

The figure closed its eyes again, the phosphorescent flame went out, and the secret chamber fell silent once more.

......

Inside the instance.

[Dark Forest - Abyss Level] Loading complete.

Chu Jiang opened his eyes and was greeted by a primeval forest where the sky was almost completely obscured.

Ancient trees blocked out the sun, and thick fog seeped from the ground, reducing visibility to no more than ten meters.

In the distance, the roars of wild beasts rose and fell.

A notification sounded for the copy game:

[Starting level of dungeon monsters: Lv.10 Berserker Wolf Pack]

Current Level: Lv.1

[Recommendation: Retreat immediately. Your class is not capable of combat.]

Chu Jiang ignored the dungeon suggestions and brought up the panel.

A purple-gold interface unfolds in view:

[Occupation: Emperor of Fengdu (Appearance: F-rank Soul Guide)]

[Rank: Unique God-level]

[Rank: Lv.1]

[Talent - Soul Harvest: 100% chance to drop Soul Points upon killing a target]

【Skill 1 - Gates of Hell Open: Consumes Soul Points to summon ghost soldiers from the underworld. Current available Soul Points: 0】

【Skill 2 - Soul-Hooking Decree (Passive): Summons deal 300% more damage to souls】

[New Emperor's Ascension Gift Pack: 30-minute access to the Yin Generals - Black Impermanence and White Impermanence, 29 minutes and 12 seconds remaining]

Chu Jiang closed the panel.

Twenty-nine minutes is enough.

Deep in the dense forest, a dozen pairs of eyes, glowing green, were approaching.

The Berserker Wolf is twice the size of a normal gray wolf, standing 1.5 meters tall at the shoulder. Its fangs are covered in slime, and its muscles bulge beneath its dark fur.

A level 10 elite monster can be instantly killed by a single claw attack from a level 1 Awakened.

The lead wolf growled, and the pack pounced.

Chu Jiang raised his hand.

"The gates of hell have opened."

boom--!

The earth trembled, and the soil beneath our feet cracked.

A towering bronze gate, hundreds of feet tall, rose from the ground, its surface adorned with menacing bronze nails shaped like ghost heads, and chilling black mist billowed from between its cracks.

The wolves that had pounced on them all stopped abruptly, letting out fearful howls.

Two terrifying, three-meter-tall phantoms slowly stepped out from the door.

The one on the left, dressed in black with a cold and stern face, carries a soul-reaping chain that glows with an eerie light—Black Impermanence Xie Bi'an.

The one on the right, dressed in white, with a strange smile on his lips, dangles a mourning staff in his hand—White Impermanence, Fan Wujiu.

Chu Jiang checked and found that both of these Yin Generals were of Epic rank, and all their attributes were ???

Monster item ranks are divided into Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Dark Gold, Epic, and Legendary.

Although we can't see the levels of the two Yin Generals, their epic rank alone is enough to annihilate all the monsters here.

Bai Wuchang tilted his head and looked at the trembling pack of demon wolves around him, then grinned and said, "Hey, new boss, you're open for business already? Business is good."

Black Impermanence remained silent.

With a flick of the chain—

clang!

The Soul-Hooking Chains exploded, transforming into dozens of black rays that instantly pierced through the bodies of all the demon wolves.

It wasn't physical penetration; the chains pierced through flesh and bone, hooking the soul directly out of the body.

Dozens of pale blue, translucent orbs of light were forcibly pulled out of the body.

The wolves didn't even have time to scream before they crashed to the ground, turning into cold corpses one after another.

The panel is jumping wildly:

[Soul Harvest Successful! Obtained 30 Demon Wolf Souls!]

[30 White Quality Souls can be converted into 30 Tier 1 Ghost Soldiers!]

[Experience Points +3000! Level Up: Lv.1 → Lv.3!]

Current total number of ghost soldiers: 30

Thirty ghostly soldiers, formed from a dark blue mist, rose from the shadow of the demon wolf's corpse and knelt before Chu Jiang.

Their forms were blurry, but they all held weapons formed from souls.

Chu Jiang looked at the numbers flashing on the panel.

While others lose experience points when fighting monsters, he not only loses experience points but also instantly generates troops.

The more you kill, the more soldiers you have.

The more soldiers you have, the faster you can kill them.

An endless snowball effect.

White Impermanence yawned and leaned against his mourning staff: "Boss, there are still twenty-eight minutes left. How about... we clear this forest?"

Chu Jiang stood up and glanced at the restless red eyes deep in the dense forest.

"All of them, not a single one left."

Black Impermanence, his chains dragging on the ground, strode into the thick fog.

White Impermanence followed, whistling, while the thirty Yin Soldiers silently rose and dispersed into the forest.

What followed can only be described in two words—massacre.

Chains swept across, mourning sticks fell, and ghostly soldiers surrounded and attacked.

With each wave of demonic wolves falling and their souls being harvested, new ghostly soldiers rise from the shadows of the corpses to join the hunt.

Thirty becomes sixty, sixty becomes one hundred and twenty.

The numbers on the panel climbed rapidly.

[Level Up: Lv.3 → Lv.4!]

[Level Up: Lv.4 → Lv.5!]

[Current total number of ghost soldiers: 127!]

One-third of the monsters in the entire dark forest were wiped out within fifteen minutes.

......

Outside the instance.

At the edge of Awakening Square, there stands a row of three-meter-high monitoring stone tablets.

Each stone tablet corresponds to a student currently in the instance, and the surface of the stone tablet will display the status indicator of the corresponding student.

Green represents safety, yellow represents combat, and red represents danger.

The light spots on most of the stone tablets were moving slowly, occasionally flashing yellow.

But one of the stone tablets looked strange.

The light spot on the stone tablet corresponding to Chujiang is red.

This is normal; when entering Abyss dungeons at Rank F, the system defaults to red.

What's abnormal is that this red dot is moving and spreading at an extremely absurd speed.

It doesn't look like a person advancing; it's more like a red ink spreading across a map.

The staff member in charge of monitoring rubbed his eyes and leaned closer to look at the information panel at the bottom of the stone tablet.

"An F-rank Soul Guide? Abyss difficulty?"

He looked again at the rapidly spreading point of light.

"this……"

"Is it showing a bug?"

The staff member picked up the communication stone, hesitated for a moment, and had not yet decided who to report to.

A large hand pressed down on his shoulder.

Pei Hu stood behind him, his gaze fixed on the stone tablet, his pupils slightly contracting.

"Retrieve the detailed data for this copy."
