Yang Song took a deep breath and went down into the hole. Then, he opened the Eyes of Insight and looked at the furry brown monster that was similar to a brown bear in appearance.

Species: Bone Eating Bear

Combat Power: Tier 2 Soldier

Talent: bone-eating (88), comprehension (10), wisdom (10), language (9)

This Bone Eating Bear really had seven points similar to the normal brown bear, however, the glaring difference was that its mouth was very wide and those sharp teeth were completely visible.

Seeing this, Yang Song did not doubt that this monster bear would really be able to crush any bones.

"Fortunately, it's only a Tier 2 Soldier, if it was a high-level abyssal beast…" Well, if it was a high-level beast, maybe it would've broken out of the trap and come outside. But that wouldn't be a problem either, Yang Song could defeat any abyssal beast with the strength up to Tier 6 or possibly Tier 7 General.

With a thought, Yang Song stored all the blades around the entrance of the abyss, making the Bone Eating Bear fall down into the puddle of red blood under that.

After that, Yang Song called Xiao Laofei over and ordered him to take the Bone Eating Bear away.

"Caw, Master, can I eat it?" Xiao Laofei asked Yang Song with eyes brightened.

Yang Song nodded casually.

Xiao Laofei cried cheerfully and transformed his body to become bigger. Immediately after that, he picked up the Bone Eating Bear corpse with his powerful beak and left the hole hurriedly.

Yang Song then took out a talisman and urged it slightly. The yellow talisman lit up, transformed into a ball of light, and covered all the blood on the ground. Within a few seconds, all the blood disappeared and the light converged.

The atmosphere inside the secret room became normal like before, there was no foul smell of blood anymore.

With that, Yang Song's thought moved again and all the blades appeared and embedded themselves around the entrance of the abyss for another time.

But looking at the sharp blades, Yang Song still did not feel safe.

"This time, only one Tier 2 Soldier came out, what if high-level abyssal beasts come in a group in the future? That will really be a disaster."

Yang Song's heart was heavy, and he thought of the future danger. He really had to think of ways to prevent abyssal beasts from coming out of the entrance in the future.

"The best offense is the best defense, I can upgrade my cultivation as soon as possible, however, it's still far from being enough."

In the level of abyssal beasts, there were Soldier tier, General tier, and King tier.

However, there was a special name to be called between the General and the King rank, and that was "Great General".

In other words, a Great General was just a name only, and it didn't represent any realm. However, a Great General had a very special privilege in different domains inside the abyss world.

And that privilege was, a Great General was actually a King's personal confidant and had the ability to command thousands of abyssal beasts including General-tier beasts, but it of course still needed the consent of its king to do that.

So to sum it up, in terms of strength, there were only three following ranks, Soldier, General, and King. But a Great General was just a special title bestowed to a high-level General-tier beast by a King.

This was the reason why Yang Song's heart felt so heavy. A King-tier abyssal beast rarely appeared, but the chance of a Great General that had the ability to command troops of abyssal beasts appearing was many times greater.

In a hundred thousand times, the chance of a King appearing was one or two. But a Great General could appear several times in 10,000 times.

Yang Song was afraid of this possibility the most. Therefore, upgrading his cultivation base alone was not enough. Even if Yang Song was a Core Formation Realm cultivator, he still wondered if he could fight against thousands of abyssal beasts.

However, with the system in hand, there might be a miracle. From what Yang Song had read in his previous life, there were many methods available for a cultivator to use.

For example, array formations, powerful treasure, spells, puppets, and so on. But the problem was that Yang Song could only be said to be a newcomer regarding immortal cultivation.

Currently, except for his pure physical strength, the ability to command True Energy, his ability to under combat techniques, and his ability to draw basic rank talismans, Yang Song did not have any useful methods as a true cultivator.

Until now, Yang Song did not even have a proper martial technique unique to immortal cultivators at all. He only knew the martial arts of this world which did not have anything to do with True Energy and the likes.

It was not until at this moment did Yang Song find out that he was still very weak.

Just as Yang Song was sighing in depression, a system prompt appeared.

[Ding, congratulations to the Host for ranking first among all the families in the area under the jurisdiction of Martial City.]

[Ding, congratulations to the Host for obtaining a 'Box of Rewards'.]

Yang Song was sluggish for a moment before his expression changed, and he became excited in an instant.

This feeling was quite great. It was like he was trying to find fire in the forest, but a heavenly being suddenly descended and gifted him a lighter.

It did not take long for Yang Song to calm and he thought of a question, "Just what made my family's ranking go up so fast?"

Feeling extremely curious, Yang Song opened the family influence screen and inspected it.

On the family influence screen, there was a list of Yang Song's descendants' names including his daughters-in-law's.

On the list, the first name to appear was… Yang Mingfei. Yes, Yang Mingfei had the most influence point among all the members.

As for Yang Song himself, his name was in the second place.

Yang Song clicked on Yang Mingfei's name and the doubt he had was solved in an instant.

It turned out that Yang Mingfei participated in the international chess competition that was taking place in Martial City today, and he became one of the top ten dark horses. And tomorrow, the top ten participants would play against each other to determine the "Number One" title holder. 

And if Yang Mingfei won the first place tomorrow, he would have to play against other winners from other cities in the entire C Country. And if Yang Mingfei became the number one chess player in C Country, he would be able to continue to play against other top players from other countries as well.

Just becoming the top ten players had already gained many family influence values for the Yang Family, if this guy were to beat his opponents all the way and become a top play globally…

"Hehe, just thinking about it makes me thrilled already."

As long as Yang Mingfei could continue to win, the Yang Family's ranking would continue to rise and the system would issue more rewards.

Yang Song swiftly got up from the hole and went to his futon. Then, he tentatively shouted in his mind, "System, open the Box of Rewards."

Immediately after that, in Yang Song's head, several system prompts appeared in an instant.

[Congratulations to the Host, your storage space became 10 times bigger. Storage space: 50 cubic meters. Used to store and/or collect objects. Can be used within 10 meters.]

[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining 100 Assignable Points. Assignable Points: 100]

[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Sky rank sword technique – Ten Thousand Returning Swords.]

[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Sky rank defensive formation – Innate Mirror Formation.]

[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Sky rank treasure – Blue Bolt Sword.]

There were a total of five rewards, and each reward satisfied Yang Song to the extreme. Just when he was thinking about the fact that he lacked a proper combat technique, a sword technique was rewarded to him.

For Yang Song the three final rewards should be the most useful to him now.

Yang Song plunged his consciousness into his storage space and found that it had indeed become many times bigger. It was no longer a "mini storage space", it should be a standard storage space now.

Inside the storage space, Yang Song saw two slender jade slips. But what attracted Yang Song the most was the blue sword near that.

The sword was all shiny blue. Its hilt was designed to look very noble and the sword body was decorated with my mysterious characters. However, the most eye-catching thing about this sword was… there were cracks of blue lightning appearing on the sword from time to time.

Seeing the sword, Yang Song's heart bubbled up with excitement again. Yang Song did not know what the so-called "Sky rank" represented, but since the sword could manifest lightning, Yang Song was very sure that it should also be a good treasure in the cultivation world.
