“Welcome home, my lord.”
After returning to the real world, Jiang Chen didn’t bother to greet Bai Ying but dived straight into the bathroom.
After battling the Six-armed Rakshasa for three hours, continuously bleeding, drying up, and bleeding again, his body was covered in congealed blood scabs, unbearably uncomfortable.
The process of taking a bath washed away all the fatigue along with the blood scabs.
His spirit and physical strength had once again returned to their peak.
“If I absorb the power of mechas a few more times, I’ll be able to fight against the Great Emperor until the end of time, until even the Dao itself wears away…”
Of course, to fight fierce enemies, endurance alone isn’t enough.
After showering, Jiang Chen returned to the living room and sat on the couch.
When he clenched his right hand into a fist and then opened it, there was an extra red gem in the palm of his hand.
[Trait: Weapons Master]
Jiang Chen had been coveting this trait for a long time.
In the Endless Demons Realm, not to mention the Six-armed Rakshasa, any random Gluttonous Goblin could crush him in terms of skills.
Now, that would become a thing of the past!
With a thought, the gem shattered to pieces, turning into a mist of red smoke that surged into his palm through the Abyss Rune, then rapidly flowed throughout his body along the countless lines of his veins.
Throughout this process, countless combat experiences and fighting memories blended into his mind, embedding themselves in his blood as an instinctual part of him.
At the same time, Jiang Chen could feel the world had changed.
Not just with swords and spears, the usual weapons.
He scanned the rental house, and all the furnishings came into his view.
Tables, fruit plates, bed sheets…

Everything seemed to have become a lethal weapon, each capable of demonstrating exceptional effectiveness in combat.
He picked up a fruit plate, plucked off a citrus leaf, pinched it between two fingers, and casually flicked it.
The leaf turned into a sharp edge, directly embedding itself in the wall opposite!
“Before twenty, wielding power to traverse the abyss.”
“After twenty, comprehending the realm of ‘the swordless victory over the sworded,’ stepping into the Dragon Realm.”
“From then on, every grass and leaf can be my sword.”
Jiang Chen let out a long sigh and suddenly spoke.
“Bai Ying, do you know how to repair walls?”
“…Bai Ying can learn.”
“That’s great, please fix the wall for me; otherwise, the landlord is going to deduct the deposit when we move out.”
A realm is a realm.
When exploring the abyss, Jiang Chen would certainly still use regular weapons.
He took out the thermal light sword from the Abyss Rune and tried holding it in his hand.
Its attributes changed accordingly.
Originally it had a negative attribute:
[Effect 4: As an external weapon, energy consumption increases by an extra 100% (doesn’t enhance power).]
Now, the attribute had changed.
[Effect 4: As an external weapon, energy consumption increases by an extra 100% (due to the Weapons Master trait, the extra energy consumption can normally increase power, and the total weapon power increases by 50%).]
Normally, compared to a Weapons Module, external weapons consume more energy and have less power; they are only a substitute when there are insufficient low-tier modules.
But with the bonus of the Weapons Master trait, the power of external weapons already made no difference from that of Weapons Modules.
It’s as if a mecha, normally capable of only mounting three modules, suddenly has several extra weapon modules.
The improvement is huge!
Moreover, the Weapons Master doesn’t only apply to external weapons.
When using the Weapons Module of the mecha, it can also exert its effect, enhancing weapon efficiency.
“Taking into account the combat experience and instincts brought by the Weapons Master…”
“Although my attributes haven’t changed, my true combat power has at least doubled!”
“If I enter the Endless Demons Realm at the Nightmare difficulty level again, even without increasing my attributes, I can easily defeat the Six-armed Rakshasa!”
Jiang Chen was extremely satisfied.
Of course, he had already obtained the traits he desired and didn’t plan on tormenting Master Luo anymore.
Now that the Mecha Enhancement was at full value, he had gained the traits he wanted, and his attributes had increased significantly…
It was time to prepare for the rank advancement trial.
After all, once the mecha completed its 1st Rank sublimation, its attributes would at least increase by tenfold.
Compared to grinding attributes and lingering in the Abyss at 0th Rank, the growth rate would be much faster!
“First, let’s repair the mecha.”
Uncharted planet.
Within the area covered by the Life Dome, a metallic mechanism towering over a hundred meters stood erect amidst the jungle.
A blond, blue-eyed man floated in front of the mecha’s head on an anti-gravity board.
In his hand was a silver bead, which emitted a large amount of smoke that the mecha rapidly absorbed.
Until the bead lost its color and turned to dust that dissipated.
The blond man then floated down from the air and stepped back onto the ground.
In the jungle, another man in a suit who had been waiting for a long time, immediately came forward to meet him.
“Simon, there’s recent news about the ninth SSS-class rookie.”
“Just an hour ago, he solo cleared the Nightmare difficulty level of Age-Old Shadow, Endless Demons Realm, in 3 hours and 27 minutes, earning a D-class evaluation.”
Simon came to the mechanic’s bench where he was organizing the enhancement tools.
Hearing this, he felt somewhat surprised.
“So soon? If I remember correctly, it has only been one day since he passed the basic trials, hasn’t it?”
The man in the suit nodded.
“He must have had the support of the alliance, switched out modules, and carried out Mecha Enhancement.”
“He must have high-rank mechas for protection; the organization has already abandoned the recruitment plan and switched to monitoring the situation.”
“The leader also asked for your opinion…”
“What opinion could I have? Just clearing the Abyss at Nightmare difficulty level took more than three hours…”
“Even for an SSS-class rookie, there are discrepancies.”
“If we were to grade them into upper, middle, and lower tiers, that kind of rookie would just belong to the lowest tier, far less threatening than the Symbol of the Alliance.”
Simon waved his hand dismissively and said casually,
“Does such a rookie need my attention? He will never be able to catch up to my pace.”
“Remember, I was rated SSS-class because that’s the highest rating possible… ”
He looked up at the hundred-meter-tall mecha in front of him, his expression fervent.
“Once I’ve enhanced my mecha completely and cleared [Hell] solo to claim the ultimate reward, all the geniuses in the world will be nothing more than that.”
“I will let the world know…”
“Even the Symbol of the Alliance…”
“Is merely a mediocre figure living in an era without me!”
“Once we break through to the 1st Rank, the highest difficulty level of Age-Old Shadow will reach [Abyss Difficulty Level].”
“You’re lying down so quickly even at Nightmare difficulty level, how will you keep up with me to clear the Abyss later… ”
“Zero, you’ve got to work hard!”
During the second repair of the mecha, Jiang Chen’s skills were clearly more proficient.
He only took ten hours to complete the repair of the model Zero Mecha, almost as fast as using repair tools.
He soothed the mecha’s emotions again before retracting the model Zero Mecha back into the Abyss Rune.
His words did not stir Bai Ying who was beside him.
[Abyss Difficulty Level] was an insurmountable challenge even for the Symbol of the Alliance, and no one had managed to clear it to this day.
Unless one was seeking death, no mecha pilot would touch that difficulty level.
The clearance of the Abyss that Lord Jiang Chen spoke of clearly referred to the abyss carbon copy, not the difficulty level.
