Chapter 491: Chapter 491 Opening the Gate of Other World
“The ten-year period hase to an end, the four major guilds… damn it!”
Lin Xiao sat on the viewing tform of Lightning Tower, holding a bottle of juice wine in his hand, and he couldn’t help but feel a little sentimental as he watched the asional lightning strikes in the distance.
It had been ten years since he arrived in this world, and atst, Ound had opened up.
Over his ten-year leveling journey, he had visited most parts of this world, especially after reaching level 60 and learning the teleport spell. Not only did he go to the Eastern Continent to meet up with his girlfriend, but he also took the time to visit other ces in this ne and gained a fair understanding of its state.
This ne was extremely simr to the legendary Azeroth, and he seriously suspected that the big shot had once visited the Titan Crystal Wall System where Azeroth was located.
However, it was only extremely simr, just an imitation. This ne had significant differences from Azeroth.
First and foremost, there wasn’t an Azeroth Star Soul inside the, nor was there an Eternal Well, nor ancient gods, but there were rumors about the Titans.
Star Soul Crystal Wall System!
Lin Xiao spected that this Crystal Wall System might have the conditions to birth a Star Soul, and perhaps the Titans of Creation were those two big shots from the legends.
In recent years, while leveling up, he had tried to trace the ancient Titan remnants. In certain legendary ces, he indeed found traces of their past, but the relics had long faded with time, and he hadn’t found anything valuable.<div>
Eventually, he confirmed that this ne was just a rough imitation of Azeroth. It seemed quite simr on the surface, but many secrets werepletely absent.
Only after traveling nearly the entire world, did Lin Xiao finally give up and focus on leveling up.
Being level 68 in this ne was considered extremely strong. A true Dragon with pure bloodline was only around level 80, which spoke volumes of how high his level was.
Of course, even though Dragons were not much higher in level than him, they had a Lord Temte, the so-called BOSS. Even if he managed to reach level 80, he wouldn’t stand a chance unless he could also upgrade his temte.
Yes, yers could upgrade their temtes too, from the initialmon temte, ascending to an Elite Temte, and finally, a Hero Temte.
However, these temte upgrades hadn’t been unlocked yet. They would only be avable after the Gate of Other World opened, leading to Ound, and would require extremely harsh conditions.
Unfortunately, in theter stages, this ne had no areas with arge number of level 60-70 monsters for him to grind indefinitely. Even the several powerful instances had cooldown periods, preventing infinite runs, otherwise, he would definitely grind up to the level 70 species-level cap.
Speaking of which, those yers who chose non-mainstream and strange races were probably crying by now. The ones who chose Kobolds, Goblins, Hyenamen, and even Fishman, these Low-grade Races had level caps mostly between 40 and 50. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t level up and catch up with the other mainstream yers.
But nothing is absolute. Most of the non-mainstream yers were in a terrible state, yet some managed to change their destiny relying on their Race’s innate Talents and characteristics. The Talents of those low-level, non-mainstream Races had magical effects in certain aspects.
For instance, the Fishman Race naturally had a neutral reputation with Fish people in the wild, wouldn’t be attacked by wild Fish people proactively, and could even take on quests fromrger Fish people tribes to increase reputation and gain some benefits.
The most famous was a Fishman yer named “Fish Life With You”, who found a superrge-scale Fish people settlement in the Sea of Mist and spent several years grinding reputation like crazy, finally reaching Revered reputation.
As a result, as the first yer to reach Revered reputation with such a minor Race, he reaped a huge benefit.
A set of Epic gear exclusive to Fish people with Revered reputation, with attributes on par with T2-level gear.
Exclusive Fishman Priest and Magician sses, though with fewer Skills, were very powerful. The key was that they didn’t conflict with existing sses, allowing dual-ssing, which was very impressive.
Some extremely rare treasures. It’s said that yer is now working hard for an Orange Legend Divine Artifact revered by the Fish people tribe, it’s unclear when it will be obtained.
The ability to hire a small squadron of ten level 45 elite Fishmen to fight and level up for oneself, and the hired Fishmen could also be trained and upgraded, assigned to turn into warriors, Mages, or Priests, and could be equipped with NPC-exclusive gear to enhance their potency, and so on.
Imagine how thrilling it is for a yer to level up and fight with ten elite level 45 pets that can level up since this world, although it has game-like data, is not a real game after all. The control of pets or subordinates is done by direct verbalmands rather than rigid fewmands, which is much more flexible than the games of the ancient times.
Thus, this first Fishman yer to eat the crab is now over level 51, surpassing the level cap of 45 for Fishmen.
After several elite Fishman pets died, there are still seven left, all of which have reached level 50 and are each equipped with a set of fine-quality NPC-exclusive gear, which is extremely awesome and ces him as the cream of the crop among Fishmen.<div>
This has made many other yers extremely envious, with many non-mainstream Race yers emting the action;, for example, Kobolds running to Kobold tribes and Goblins grinding Goblin reputation, truly distinguishing themselves differently.
Among them, what impressed Lin Xiao the most were the two Pandarens who separately opened the reputation of the Throat Bearmen and Deadwood Bearmen – two powerful rival Bear Monster tribes. Those tribes were very strong, with levels at least above 55.

The reputation should’ve been quite difficult to grind, but the two of them decided to coborate by feverishly sacrificing themselves to the enemy, dying countless times to raise their reputation. Although they have not yet reached ‘Revered’ status, they are well into ‘Honored’ and have already reaped substantial benefits.<div>
After all, the Pandaren are much stronger than the Fishman Race and possess more potential value for growth.
All of this made Lin Xiao green with envy, but his chosen race was the Star Spirit, a unique presence in this world, and he could find nowhere to grind racial reputation.
Fortunately, the Gate of the Other World was about to open, or rather, it was already opening.
yers did not need to participate; when ten years passed, there were NPCs who discovered an Alien World. Many yers who were doing reputation quests for the great powers noticed this, and a small number of elite yers even got involved.
Although Lin Xiao had reached ‘Honored’ reputation across the entire Human Camp, he did not participate. He simply waited silently, waiting for the Gate of the Other World to open.
A lengthy wait ensued, until one day, all yers suddenly saw a screen pop up in front of them. A huge, ancient door slowly opened, and an endless stream of Demon Beings poured out from within. He naturally knew that the Gate of the Other World had opened.
“Warriors, the Gate of the Other World has opened. It is time to establish your glory.”
After the routine promation came the highlight of this descent:
“The Gate of the Other World is now officially open. All Descenders above Level 50 must enter the Ound.”
“Gaia Main World reputation system activated!”
“Native prestige system for Ound activated!”
“The Legion Fortress System activated!”
“Earn honor by killing the Children of Nightmare!”<div>
“For more details, please proceed to Ound to explore on your own!”
A barrage of prompts almost swamped the screen. Lin Xiao calmed down and slowly went through these messages to ensure he understood everything without missing a beat.
The Gate to Ound was located in the Land of Curse, which originally served as a leveling area for around Level 50. The ce was filled with Undead Beings Level 50 and above. When Lin Xiao and all members of his girlfriend’s guild who were Level 50 or higher arrived at the Land of Curse, they saw that most of thend had be a huge fortress, teeming with elite soldiers from the races of Humans, Orcs, Elves, and others, all Level 55 or higher, congregating to exterminate the Demon Beings pouring out of the Gate of the Other World.
He gazed into the distance, where a vast pir of green light soared into the sky, spreadingyer uponyer into the heavens. The sunlight was blocked, and the world was plunged into gloom.
This Gate of the Other World was situated in a vast basin with a diameter of over ten kilometers, surrounded by six gigantic towers each two to three hundred meters tall. At the top of each tower, a colossal beam of light shot down into the basin, forming an enormous of light that enveloped the entire area. It prevented the flying demonic creatures from escaping the Ound’s Gate.
At this time, they could not yet enter the gate. They had to wait for the NPCs to clear out these creatures before sending powerful individuals in to establish an Outpost Base.
They collected several enemy-killing quests from the overall quartermaster and formed arge team to enter the basin.
The warriors lined up with shields, and behind them, a dozen mages cast Blizzard and Rain of Fire. Blizzard was a range spell specializing in Ice Magic, and Rain of Fire specialized in Fire Laws, simr to Lin Xiao’s Thundercloud.
However, their damage was far less than his, and their casting range and spell coverage were both a lot smaller. He summoned a massive thundercloud far among the Demon Beings, and instantly hundreds of lightning bolts crashed down, with damage numbers skyrocketing.
The Demon Beings were at least Level 55 or above, with HP around three to four thousand, and among them, there were numerous elites with eleven to twelve thousand HP.
Benefiting from various equipped gear and Talents, plus an additional two hundred percent, a fifteen-second duration of his thundercloud could deal over ten thousand total damage to each target. Coupled with his high Level 68, which was more than ten levels above those around Level 55, he could kill all the ordinary Demon Beings in the area in one go, leaving the elite Demons either severely wounded or barely alive.
It’s a pity that the lightning spells were best at high-damage bursts,cking any slowing effects, and there was no slow in his professional Talents. If he had the slowing effect of Ice Magic, none of these Demons would escape.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The ordinary monsters at Level 55 didn’t yield any experience, only the elite ones provided a few dozen points, but for the team members with an average level above 50, this experience was quite enjoyable.<div>
It took a whole month and a half to open the gate. During that time, NPCs organized multiple efforts for strong fighters and arge number of elite soldiers to enter the gate, and several times they were forced to retreat, resulting in the loss of soldiers and generals, including several well-known Overlord Level Big Bosses over Level 70 who perished.
In such narrative missions, death meant true death – they would never respawn again.
During this period, Lin Xiao had one opportunity to follow the group into the gate. As soon as he stepped through, he felt the raging energies of the Void. What entered his eyes was a vibrant aurora traversing the Void, with greenva flowing across the destend. The gate to the Alien World they had opened stood upon this deste terrain, with countless Demons nearby annihted, but more were swarming from afar.
