Chapter 1251: Break Hundred
November 17th, 2017
Ji Province, Juelu County City.
Above Jule City, six astonishing streams of fortune gathered, resembling six awe-inspiring giant dragons.
Beneath these 'giant dragons', the Yuwang Bell, originally placed on the altar, slowly rose, emitting a thick, earthy yellow glow.
A mysterious and powerful force was also stirred beneath this heavy and enigmatic radiance.
The fluctuations of this mysterious power, combined with the heavy glow and the aura unique to Human Dao Sacred Artifacts emanating from the Yuwang Bell at this moment, could be said to have, in an instant, captured all the brilliance in the entire Juelu County City, illuminating the sky above Jule City with its radiance.
Compared to the dazzling Yuwang Bell, Lu Hai Kong, who was currently undergoing a breakthrough under its glow, seemed utterly unremarkable.
Even though Lu Hai Kong was like a lightbulb, and even a multi-colored human-shaped one, with golden light emanating from his eyes and his body radiating a violet-gold hue, making him incredibly eye-catching, and the aura surrounding him equally astonishing.
But at this moment, under the brilliance of the Yuwang Bell, Lu Hai Kong appeared insignificant, and even the guardians below the altar, including Dian Wei, didn't notice Lu Hai Kong's presence, which was exactly what he wanted.
The more inconspicuous he was, the higher his chances of a successful breakthrough.
The radiance around Lu Hai Kong persisted for over half an hour, and only after that did his aura begin to fade. However, the hint of joy on his face made it evident that he had achieved his goal.
In fact, when Lu Hai Kong began to emit light, and the system prompt didn't appear, he knew he had successfully exploited the loophole, bypassing the system's Break Hundred Task and directly breaking through solely by strength. Still, Lu Hai Kong's tension hadn't completely dissipated.
After completing the breakthrough, Lu Hai Kong had no time to dwell on the changes in his newly advanced state. His gaze was fixed on the Yuwang Bell above.
He was carefully preparing to seize the Yuwang Bell as soon as it finished activating, while also awaiting the system's final judgment after its activation.
Lu Hai Kong was well aware that even with his breakthrough, the matter wasn't concluded. As soon as the Yuwang Bell's activation was complete, the system would undoubtedly detect his strength had surpassed a hundred, and he was now waiting for the system's response.
Whether it would be a forceful suppression or a laissez-faire approach, everything depended on the system's reaction.
Half an hour later, when Lu Hai Kong saw the Yuwang Bell's radiance gradually diminishing, he knew the critical moment had arrived.
"Now's the time!"
At the instant the Yuwang Bell's glow was fully retracted, Lu Hai Kong swiftly took action, immediately suppressing the recently activated Yuwang Bell, which was still ownerless, to prevent it from flying away.
Due to Lu Hai Kong's strength-based breakthrough, his power had increased significantly, making it somewhat troublesome but still relatively easy to suppress the Yuwang Bell, thus completing its activation.
Just as Lu Hai Kong thoroughly suppressed the Yuwang Bell, the system prompts began to flood his ears!
[You have successfully activated the Human Dao Sacred Artifact, Yuwang Bell.]
[Ji Province Cauldron] and obtain a Mythical Chest and a special mission reward!】
The first system notification was regarding the [Yu Wang Ding], and it immediately offered a reward, setting a positive tone. The following system prompts were specifically for Lu Hai Kong.
【Ding, Detected your Strength Value breaking through 100. As the first Unusual Person to break through this threshold, you will receive the following rewards!】
【Ding, You have successfully broken through Strength 100. Your [Break Hundred Task Reward] is doubled!】
【Ding, You have successfully broken through Strength 100. You will randomly obtain a [Unique Level General Trait]!】
【Ding, You have successfully broken through Strength 100. You will receive two [No Task Breakthrough Slots]!】
【Ding, You have successfully broken through Strength 100. You will obtain a Mythic-level item!】
Lu Hai Kong was stunned. In fact, he had prepared himself for the system's suppression, but he never expected the system's love for him to be so profound. Not only did it not suppress him, but it also offered a plethora of astonishing rewards!
Seeing these system prompts, Lu Hai Kong felt like hugging the system and calling it 'Pappi'. Despite his cheating and exploiting loopholes, he was still receiving such treatment. It seemed that Lu Hai Kong was undoubtedly the system's favorite.
However, before Lu Hai Kong could fully process his joy, another wave of system prompts appeared.
【Ding, Detected that the Unusual Person, Lu Hai Kong, has not participated in the [Break Hundred Task]...】
This system prompt immediately sent shivers down Lu Hai Kong's spine, and he became tense.
Please... You... Collect_6_9_Book_Bar (Six//Nine//Book//Bar)
To be honest, if this system prompt had appeared first, Lu Hai Kong wouldn't have been so anxious. After all, he had mentally prepared himself for failure.
But damn, this system was cruel. It first showed him the abundant rewards, and now it presented this prompt, making Lu Hai Kong tense up instantly.
There was no choice; the rewards were too enticing. If the system were to take them away now, Lu Hai Kong might cry.
The system's will was clear, and it wouldn't change according to Lu Hai Kong's wishes. Soon, another system prompt sounded.
【Ding, Due to your failure to complete the [Break Hundred Task], your breakthrough is considered a violation. The system offers the following solutions, and you may choose one to execute!】
【Solution One: The system will temporarily retract all rewards and reduce your Strength to 99. You must complete the [Break Hundred Task] to lift the suppression and reclaim your rewards.
Ps: Due to your violation, the duration of your [Break Hundred Task] will be extended, and the task difficulty will increase by one level!】
When Lu Hai Kong read this, he frowned slightly. In fact, this solution wasn't harsh; it could even be considered lenient. But Lu Hai Kong didn't have the time, so he immediately shifted his attention to the second solution.
【Solution Two: A [Foreign Demon Avatar] has infiltrated Chang'an. Please slay it. Your task reward will be unfrozen after you kill the [Foreign Demon Avatar], and you will also receive an additional reward!】
Upon seeing this solution, Lu Hai Kong's eyes narrowed...
