As the Undead Warriors swept through the Wolf Magic Forest in an instant, the players in the forest were all stirred up.

"Whoa! How did that Trickster summon so many creatures?"

"Wait! That Undead Warrior looks familiar... Isn't that Trickster the main character from that TikTok video where he took down a Black Iron level boss in ten seconds?"

"Hold on, let me open TikTok and check... Damn, it's really him!"

"The TikTok legend with three million likes is standing right in front of me! I'm so excited I could spin in circles!"

After completing the task, Lu Ming disbanded the team.

He gathered the Undead Warriors and left the Wolf Magic Forest.

The two older assassins standing outside the forest quickly straightened up to make way for Lu Ming, their eyes wide open, not daring to breathe as the army of Undead Warriors roared past.

Riding on Lu Ming's coattails, Qing Yan also walked past the two older men with her head held high.

Once out of the public eye, Qing Yan quickened her pace to catch up with Lu Ming.

"Hey there, let's add each other as friends! I can show you ways to make money!"

Lu Ming didn't even turn his head, responding coldly, "No need."

After being betrayed by Ye Ling'er, Lu Ming wouldn't easily trust anyone again, especially not women.

Qing Yan stood there, pouting, "Hmph! What a blockhead!"

Just as he returned to Moonfall Town, Lu Ming received a message from Lin Youwei.

"Ye Chen is about to reach level 8!"

Faster than Lu Ming had anticipated.

So, Lu Ming quickly headed to the Profession Hall to submit his task.

Whoosh!

At that moment, a beam of seven-colored light descended from the sky, enveloping Lu Ming.

Immediately after, a series of pleasant notifications rang in his ears.

[Ding~ Congratulations on completing your Second Transition. Your level cap has increased to 20, attribute growth has been enhanced, and you've gained an additional skill slot!]

In Sky Abyss, the attribute growth for the eight major professions is the same during the first transition.

For example, 1 Strength = 1 Physical Attack; 1 Agility = 1 Speed; 1 Spirit = 10 Mana + 0.1 Mana Recovery per second...

After the Second Transition, growth will vary based on the characteristics of each profession.

For instance, Lu Ming's current profession, Trickster, after the Second Transition, has growth enhancements as follows:

1 Strength = 1.3 Physical Attack.

1 Agility = 1.1 Speed.

1 Spirit = 15 Mana + 0.15 Mana Recovery per second.

1 Endurance = 1.2 Armor + 1.1 Magic Resistance.

1 Constitution = 13 Health Points + 1.3 Health Recovery per second.

In addition, the attribute boost per level up has increased from 10 Mana + 20 Health Points to 15 Mana + 25 Health Points!

Unlocked Trickster profession trait: Every 5 Spirit points convert to 1 Physical Attack point!

After completing the Second Transition, Lu Ming opened his status panel for a look.

...

For Lu Ming, the greatest improvement is in the three major account talents!

The first talent, Soul Slash, at Lv1 allowed him to kill enemies and refine soul power, summoning a 1st-tier Undead Warrior for each point of soul power consumed, with a maximum summon quantity of his level * 10.

Now at Lv2, he can consume 10 points of soul power to summon a 2nd-tier Undead Warlord, with a maximum summon quantity of his level * 20!

The second talent, Comprehensive Amplification, at Lv1 increased all player skill effects by 10 times; now at Lv2, all player skill effects are increased by 20 times!

The third talent, Rebirth from Ashes, at Lv1 allowed the player to sacrifice the weakest Undead Warrior to resurrect upon death; now at Lv2, the player gains 1 second of invincibility upon resurrection!

Lu Ming couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Even when these three talents were just at Lv1, they were already overpowered.

Now with this strength... how is anyone else supposed to play?

Feeling invigorated, Lu Ming opened the summoning panel.

He discovered that through constant monster killing and refining, he had accumulated a soul power of 2009 points!

So, Lu Ming decided to test the waters by consuming 10 points of soul power to summon a 2nd-tier Undead Warlord.

Whoosh!

A three-meter-tall silver vortex materialized before Lu Ming.

Whoa!

"Even the space gate has become more advanced!"

The next second, an Undead Warrior emerged from the vortex.

The 1st-tier Undead Warrior was clad in black armor, wielding an iron sword. Though imposing, it always had a somewhat cheap appearance after a while.

But now, the 2nd-tier Undead Warlord that emerged was not only in dazzling silver armor but also wielded a silver blade!

The visible aura had doubled, exuding the presence of a true general!

At this moment, Lu Ming's undead had truly evolved from "warrior" to "warlord"!

Awesome!

This is simply too awesome!

Looking at the 2nd-tier Undead Warlord's panel, it was much stronger than the 1st-tier Undead Warrior and even had an active skill!

[Undead Warlord] (2nd-tier, Lv10)

[Master: Nether]

[Strength: 21] (Growth 1.5)

[Agility: 28] (Growth 1.3)

[Spirit: 10] (Growth 11)

[Constitution: 10] (Growth 18)

[Endurance: 10] (Growth 1.4, 1.2)

[Physical Attack: 32]

[Armor: 14]

[Magic Resistance: 12]

[Speed: 36.4]

[Mana: 210]

[Health Points: 410]

[Skill: Soul Shatter (F-grade, Lv10, selects an enemy within 50 yards, marks with a soul imprint, and can execute a 120% attack power + 72 damage instant kill attack within 3 seconds; 9-second cooldown, consumes 17)]

...

Since summoned creatures cannot wear equipment, even after advancing to a 2nd-tier Undead Warlord, their attributes are still mediocre.

But under Lu Ming's 20x amplification formation enhancement, they become invincible war gods!

With Lv2 Soul Slash, the maximum summon quantity is now level * 20, which means 200 undead.

So, Lu Ming consumed 990 points of soul power to summon 99 2nd-tier Undead Warlords in one go!

Additionally, Lu Ming discovered that the original 1st-tier Undead Warriors could also be upgraded to 2nd-tier Undead Warlords by consuming 9 points of soul power!

Thus, Lu Ming consumed another 900 points of soul power to upgrade all one hundred 1st-tier Undead Warriors!

On the field, a total of two hundred Undead Warlords knelt on one knee, pledging allegiance to Lu Ming.

For the first time, Lu Ming experienced the feeling of being high and mighty.

He recalled all the Undead Warlords back to the summoning space.

Just then, Ye Chen sent Lu Ming a WeChat message: "I'm level 8, come to the entrance of the Scarlet Zone, I'll take you to the dungeon."

"Finally, the moment I've been waiting for!"

Reading Ye Chen's message, the anger and hatred buried deep in Lu Ming's heart surged forth, eager to explode.

"Ye Chen, I'm coming for your life!"
