Chapter 142 - 120: New Milestone! (4K)
As the Monster perished completely, the matter in the Different Space began to fall into the real world!
At the location of the giant waterfall, a mountain’s phantom appeared.
This phantom, spanning hundreds of kilometers in length and width, was lush with vegetation and had rugged rocks, even crossing over from the Pangu Continent to the Rize Civilization’s Seventh Branch Safe Zone. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Because the Monster’s superpower was too strong, even after it had completely died, the fall of the matter from the Different Space was slow, unlike Lu Yuan’s Different Space, which would burst out all at once upon being undone.
The entire falling process might take quite a while.
Before it completely fell, this mountain was like a mirage, visible but untouchable.
"We won..." Old Cat, now only a cat’s head, looked at the gray sky and then at the mess on the ground along with the Monster’s corpse.
Defeating a mighty opponent had given it an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
Things in the world were really too bizarre.
In the end, it was the bottom of Society that killed the top of Society...
It was about to say a few witty remarks when suddenly it seemed to freeze.
Then it saw an astonishing sight.
"Hey, what are you biting, Head wolf?!" Old Cat screamed in horror.
Old Wolf somewhat innocently raised its head, its pink tongue licking its nose.
"That’s Lu Yuan’s intestine! How could you eat it?!"
"Howl?" Old Wolf realized its mistake and instinctively wagged its tail.
It was indeed hungry.
Had it not run here looking for Lu Yuan just for something to eat?
Like savoring this fresh and hot intestine.
...
Subsequently, perhaps due to the vast amount of energy disturbance caused by the fall of the Different Space, a massive dark cloud formed in the sky, obscuring the yellow-orange sun.
The leaden clouds grew thicker, and a "whoosh" of heavy rain suddenly poured down.
Lightning, hail, and rain poured down, as if the whole world had turned to just black and white.
In this thunder and lightning, a voice quietly emerged, but no one could hear it—only individuals within their own civilization could hear all of their civilization’s Milestone announcements.
Although the bomb was provided by the Rize Civilization, the main subjective initiative was played by Lu Yuan, Old Wolf, and Old Cat.
Just like the main subject of a murder, definitely being the person rather than the manufacturer of the knife, thus this Milestone still counted towards human civilization.
As for Old Wolf and Old Cat, they might only be considered Lu Yuan’s pets... and could not earn any Milestones.
[Congratulations, your civilization has achieved the Unique Milestone, Ninth Epoch·Monster Slayer.]
[Achievement condition: the first in all civilizations to hunt down the anomaly "Monster".]
[Your civilization has earned the Unique Milestone reward: Different Space (randomly awarded to one person within the civilization).]
[Your civilization has earned the Unique Milestone Points reward: 5000 points. (This feature has not yet been activated)]
There wasn’t a descent of white light like usual.
Because the civilization meant to complete the Milestone seemed to have no living individuals?
Without living people, naturally, the rewards could not be granted.
[Checking if the civilization has been extinguished...]
[Detection complete, a surviving Inheritor found.]
Finally, hidden inside a tree hole, a Tree of Life was found, preserving a certain life form’s soul and a growing body.
A beam of white light fell, trying to merge with the life unit’s soul.
But quickly, the white light bounced back out of the soul—because the unit already possessed the ability of "Different Space"!
A person cannot have two Different Spaces, just as they cannot have two hearts.
Two hearts, that would be a mutation!
The white light circled around the Tree of Life several times, failing to find a second alive individual in human civilization’s 18th branch.
By all accounts, Milestone rewards and their corresponding achievements tend to have a positive correlation. Just like killing a "Demon" and being given a Tree of Life.
Because the "Demon’s" ability was to take over and resurrect, and the Tree of Life would also resurrect, though this resurrection ability wasn’t as powerful as that of the "Demon".
"Different Space", naturally, is the Milestone achieved after killing the "Monster".
"Different Space", this extremely rare ability, seemed impossible to be given away!
[Unknown error, Milestone reward failed...]
The white light orbited the Tree of Life several times.
Then another voice appeared, adjusting the reward.
[Your civilization has earned a Unique Milestone reward: Spatial Teleportation (randomly awarded to one person within the civilization).]
Another white light, alongside a bolt of lightning, suddenly appeared in front of the Tree of Life and then drilled into Lu Yuan’s soul.
After doing all this, the mysterious voice disappeared, as if it had never existed...
...
One month, two months, three months...
The Tree of Life grew silently, years were like a vast ocean.
The speed of resurrection was much slower than Lu Yuan had anticipated.
He was a Level Three Extraordinary Life, with a strong physical body, even considered to be the strongest warrior of the Pangu Continent in the Ninth Epoch.
By comparison, the Tree of Life was still too weak, not yet as thick as an arm, this sort of minor hauling major cart style of resurrection severely slowed down the resurrection speed.
One year, two years, three years...
And in the sky, the materialization of the phantom of Daqing Mountain was also slower than imagined.
This was because the position of the "Monster" was inside the "Time Cage," where time passed much slower than on the Pangu Continent.
