I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second

Chapter 760: The One Who Knows You Best Is Yourself

The rules of the dungeon were already known by the three of Nangong Ling, so they were not surprised.

After nodding to indicate they were ready, Ares waved his hand again, creating three separate spaces out of thin air, placing each of the three with their corresponding copies inside, before finally turning his gaze to Lin Yi.

”Well, if not.”

Lin Yi, being exceedingly clever, could guess what this projection of divine power in front of him wanted to say, even without relying on the Truth Law and Power of the Primordial.

”I refuse. I, Lin Yi, dislike obtaining things without effort the most. Passing the trial in this manner is the greatest insult to myself.”

”So, let my trial begin as usual.”

The projection of Ares was covered in black lines.

Seriously, you’ve already said so much. What am I supposed to say?

Letting you pass was to give you face and also to do the gods a favor. How could you not understand human relations at all?

Ares only said these words in his heart.

”Young lad, your strength has already surpassed the limit for challenging this dungeon. With your power, you no longer need to continue trials here. As for the certificate to open the Purifying Soul Dungeon after this trial, I will give it to you as usual. Moreover, how about I also give you a random Mythical Equipment treasure chest?”

Lin Yi could completely rely on his strength to take the certificate to open the Purification Soul Dungeon.

As for the random Mythical Equipment chest, Lin Yi was quite eager for it.

But, Lin Yi knew in his heart.

Is the enhancement of raw power more important, or is a piece of random equipment more important? There’s no need for any hesitation.

The belief Lin Yi grew up with is that you need to be strong to forge iron.

However good the random Mythical Equipment chest might be, can it be better than surpassing his own limits, or than the growth of insights?

This bit of pros and cons can’t confuse Lin Yi; of course, he would decisively refuse.

”That won’t work. My parents taught me from a young age to live with one’s feet on the ground, take one step at a time. A pie from the sky might be poisonous. I don’t believe such good fortune would fall on my head. I’d rather go the trial route.”

When Lin Yi said these words, his face was filled with a sincere expression, truly interpreting saying the darkest words with the most innocent face.

The projection of Ares was very clear that this young Lin Yi could definitely see his embarrassment.

But, as it involved the gods’ dignity, he couldn’t directly state his apprehensions.

Seeing the projection of Ares standing immovable, Lin Yi started to smile.

”My lord God, are you out of divine power?”

As the decrees of order in the Three Realms and Six Paths, the Upper-Rank Gods valued their face the most.

Even though he clearly understood the young man before him was provoking him, and even standing against Lin Yi, not being the real Ares but just a projection, he had no choice but to be led by that damned pride.

”Fine, you rascal won’t drink a toast, only a forfeit!! In that case, don’t blame this god for not giving you a chance. Whether you pass this trial or not may have nothing to do with the trial taker’s actual strength. The stronger you are, the stronger the copy you face naturally becomes. Boy, just wait and regret!”

After a roar from Ares’ projection, he condensed an identical Lin Yi with divine power, and then placed Lin Yi into a designated space.

”I didn’t expect you would choose to fight me, truly admirable courage.”

Hey, don’t say it; the personality of the copy is really quite similar to Lin Yi. If he switched places with them, Lin Yi figured he would probably start in the same way.

”It’s not really courage. Without the confidence to challenge myself, how could I be the willful master of this planet?”

As the words fell, the two simultaneously instant cast the Thunderbolt Flash skill, suddenly dashing forward.

The tangible Power of the Primordial enveloped their fists, the thunderous might of the Lightning Strike was even more domineering under the blessing of the Power of the Primordial.

Boom!

The identical moves paired with identical actions, striking with the same output, all around space was affected, uncontrollably extending countless cracks.

The colliding Power of the Primordial transformed into a substantial torrent, suddenly spreading. If not for the battle location being in the space Ares created, everything within the godly ruins would have been damaged significantly.

Boom!

Both Lin Yis’ mouth corners simultaneously rose, an even larger Power of the Primordial erupted from their colliding fists.

”You didn’t let me down. As expected of my copy, even the way you strike is exactly the same as me.”

Lin Yi was genuinely pleased.

Fighting against his copy was indeed a truly exhilarating experience.

No need to worry about hitting too hard, and no need to worry about not being able to block the opponent’s incoming moves. Where else could you find such perfect combat experience?

But the smile had just appeared when Lin Yi’s face suddenly turned gloomy.

Damn it!

The Eye of All-Seeing notification suddenly popped out:

”Lin Yi (Copy), duration 14 minutes and 50 seconds.”

As expected, the power of the Ares projection is limited. It’s clearly impossible to rely on him for a satisfying fight.

minutes and 50 seconds, this time is already quite sufficient for an ordinary dungeon-crawling Lin Yi.

But this time, Lin Yi is up against a copy identical in strength and who knows him best.

To pass this dungeon, Lin Yi may only have to completely defeat his copy within this period, otherwise, once the divine power of Ares’ projection runs out, the dungeon might be closed for a long time. Who can say when those Upper-Rank Gods will pay attention to Blue Star again?

With a thought, the Eternal Power within his body surged wildly.

At the moment when both lifted their right hands, a blade extending several hundred meters, constructed from Eternal Power, chopped down toward the opponent’s head.

Simultaneously, a crystalline and transparent river of ice descended from the sky behind the opponent.

The River of Space-Time Condensation skill was successfully activated.

Sure enough, the one who knows me best is myself.

The copy of Lin Yi had already had several rounds with the original master’s moves exactly alike.

It indeed lived up to the name of this dungeon, Realm!

The battle in this dungeon for Lin Yi was like fighting against a mirror image of himself.

The River of Space-Time Condensation grew ever closer to the opponent, as did the one the opponent released. The gigantic ice blade condensed by Eternal Power was at its limit at this moment, and suddenly shattered.

The backlash brought by both shattering skills transmitted to both bodies simultaneously.

The internal injuries brought by swirling Qi and blood were also healed at the same moment.

Seeing the move miss, Lin Yi instinctively activated his Heaven and Earth Transformation Mirror skill, attempting to use several moments of relocation within a second to kill the opponent.

Sadly, the copy Lin Yi also possessed this skill.

No matter how either of them flickered within this realm, instant teleportation, they would always end up confronting the other the moment they stopped, engaging in hand-to-hand combat.
