CHAPTER 698: CHAPTER 423: RETURN! ANOTHER SKILL SLOT REWARD

The return countdown ended, and Lu Heng and the other three stretched out their hands, stacking them together, and their bodies simultaneously disappeared from the spot.

Also disappearing was Ke Yiming, who was still in the cell.

As with previous returns, an initially starlike brilliance made it impossible to open their eyes, followed by a prolonged period of darkness.

The information regarding the end of the Abyss Battlefield began to appear before their eyes.

[Abyss Battlefield has ended, returning to the main world...]

[Completed Main Quest 1: Investigate the Abyss Demon King descending on the Queldorei Continent. Received 350 points of Divine Energy.]

[Completed Main Quest 2: Evade pursuit by the Abyss Summoners. Received 350 points of Divine Energy.]

[Completed Main Quest 3: Survive for 30 days on the Queldorei Continent. Received 350 points of Divine Energy.]

[Completed Challenge Task 1: Kill 10 Abyss Summoners. Received 1050 points of Divine Energy.]

[Completed Challenge Task 2: Find the Abyss Pollution Source and eliminate the pollution source. Received 1050 points of Divine Energy.]

[Completed Challenge Task 3: Form an alliance with the Elf Clan and jointly thwart the Abyss Demon King’s schemes. Received 1050 points of Divine Energy.]

Having completed all main quests and challenge tasks, a total of 4200 points of Divine Energy as a reward was received.

Before this Abyss Battlefield began, Divine Energy was spent in advance to teleport to the Elf World, over 10000 points were obtained from killing the Bone Sovereign, and with the remaining amount from before, the total Divine Energy reached 15200 points.

[World Task Completed: Eliminate the Bone Sovereign Leoric]

[World Task Reward: Choose one from the following three rewards.]

[1. Consume 6000 points of Divine Energy to establish a Level 2 Space Anchor Point, which can consume Divine Energy to carry matter not exceeding 100kg back to the Queldorei World.]

[2. Consume 1200 points of Divine Energy to add a Skill Slot.]

[3. Consume Divine Energy to upgrade a fully proficient skill, consuming different amounts of Divine Energy based on Skill Level.]

Seeing the World Task rewards, Lu Heng fell into deep thought.

In fact, even before seeing the World Task rewards, Lu Heng knew there would be a reward for a Level 2 Space Anchor Point.

The secret of the Level 2 Space Anchor Point was not known until just before he was reborn in his previous life.

After all, the reward for a Level 2 Space Anchor Point was too difficult to obtain, so very few people knew this secret, and the related information was published much later.

In fact, Space Anchors are regular rewards for World Tasks; as long as you complete the World Task, the primary reward is usually a Space Anchor.

As for the Level 2 Space Anchor, it appears only after obtaining a Level 1 Space Anchor.

This means that this reward option is an upgrade option for a Level 1 Space Anchor.

The effect of the Level 2 Space Anchor is very strong, allowing the teleportation of 100kg of matter into the target world.

There’s a hidden piece of information here: living beings are also considered matter.

This means that with a Level 2 Space Anchor, it’s possible to bring people along to teleport into the target world.

Lu Heng once promised Master Gulu that he would find a way in the future to help him reunite with his tribesmen.

There are several ways to fulfill this promise, but each method is not easy to accomplish.

One of them is the Level 2 Space Anchor.

Of course, it requires a Level 2 Space Anchor from the Dragon Sleep World or Molten Lava Plain to work.

Lu Heng’s previous thought was that if there was a chance to be summoned a second time into the Dragon Sleep World or Molten Lava Plain, he would strive to complete the World Task and obtain a Level 2 Space Anchor.

In that case, he could bring Master Gulu and the Black Iron Dwarf Tribe together again.

Of course, such a reunion is time-limited.

When Lu Heng returns to the main world, the people and matter carried with him will also return.

Overall, a Level 2 Space Anchor has endless possibilities.

If the second reward option had not appeared, Lu Heng would directly choose the Level 2 Space Anchor, but this time he was lucky, and an additional reward option for adding a Skill Slot appeared.

The World Task rewards are one of the primary ways to increase Skill Slots, but the difficulty of completing World Tasks is too high, and very few Superpower Users can genuinely increase their Skill Slots this way.

Moreover, the more Skill Slots there are, the higher the value of the reward to increase a Skill Slot.

Lu Heng now has six Skill Slots, two fewer than Su Muyu.

Six Skill Slots are not few in the first echelon but are not super-rare.

According to the Great Xia Military’s database, there are already more than a dozen humans with seven Skill Slots at the current stage.

As time goes by, the number of Superpower Users with seven Skill Slots will increase.

If a chance to increase Skill Slots is encountered and not seized, it means there will always be one less skill in the future.

If it were a Level 2 Space Anchor from the Dragon Sleep World, it could be selected to help Master Gulu realize his wish.

Now, it’s more crucial to prioritize increasing Combat Power.

As the Abyss Invasion reaches the later stages, the Abyss Battlefield levels will become increasingly higher.

This time, a demigod-level Abyss Demon King has already appeared in the Abyss Battlefield, and without accelerating the Combat Power upgrade, it is very likely that he will not be able to keep pace with the increasing level of the Abyss Battlefield.

After weighing pros and cons, Lu Heng ultimately chose the second reward, to increase a Skill Slot.

After selecting the World Task reward, he casually glanced at the attribute panel.
