Curse Binding Vajra: "If you want me not to report it, you better stop sending 'Are you there?' messages in the future."

Because actually, nothing much was happening in Qin Island City, so causing a seaquake in Yellow Sea was just a small matter. Gu Mingyue actually didn't care much about it.

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Then you'd better report me."

Curse Binding Vajra: "Damn! Do you believe I'll punch you!"

Seeing Zhang Yanhang replying instantly without hesitation, although Gu Mingyue was a little angry, she suddenly remembered one thing while being angry. Zhang Yanhang had just been promoted to the Fourth Tier, how could he possibly be powerful enough to almost break through the earth's crust? It was obviously unreasonable. Could there be another hidden truth?

Curse Binding Vajra: "You just got promoted to the Fourth Tier, how could you be this powerful? Is it...?"

Heavenly Destiny Master: "That's right, actually in a surge of emotion 'ber' I suddenly reached Peak Fourth Tier. After all, you can't generalize people's constitutions. I once shot up to Peak Third Tier in extreme excitement, so getting excited again and jumping to Peak Fourth Tier is reasonable, right?"

Curse Binding Vajra: "Are you serious?"

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Okay, I lied. Actually, it's because the foundation I accumulated in Third Tier was too profound, so as soon as I got promoted to the next rank, I immediately reached Peak Fourth Tier. Before promotion, I didn't expect that I would have such a profound foundation."

Curse Binding Vajra: "If my short-term memory isn't failing me, it seems you took only a day to get promoted to Fourth Tier?"

Heavenly Destiny Master: "What's wrong with one day? Can't you accumulate a profound foundation in one day? Are you discriminating against me? Discriminating against Awakeners with fast promotion speeds?"

Curse Binding Vajra: "Yes, I discriminate against fast Awakeners."

Rather than believing Zhang Yanhang accumulated a profound foundation in one day and reached Peak Fourth Tier upon promotion, Gu Mingyue would rather believe Zhang Yanhang suddenly reached Peak Fourth Tier due to a surge of emotion. After all, nobody can predict a sudden enlightenment, so the 'surge of emotion' explanation is more reasonable.

Heavenly Destiny Master: "..."

Zhang Yanhang was also very helpless. He clearly told the truth this time, but the group leader just didn't believe it.

But even though they didn't believe him, he couldn't tolerate discrimination against fast Awakeners.

Heavenly Destiny Master: "I have a 70% enhancement in reproduction ability, absolutely far surpassing the same-tier Awakeners."

Curse Binding Vajra: "Unbelievable!"

Curse Binding Vajra: "There's actually such an outrageous enhancement?"

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Let's talk about the serious stuff. What do you think are the important considerations for a Fourth Tier Awakener?"

Curse Binding Vajra: "Considerations? If I must say, it's probably about the potential encounters with god-related monsters after promoting to Fourth Tier. Monsters related to gods are generally quite powerful, with strong abilities, and it's easy to screw up against them."

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Too late, I just slew a God of Sun."

Curse Binding Vajra: "???"

Curse Binding Vajra: "!!!"

Gu Mingyue was choked by the offering. She's a Fifth Tier Awakener and hasn't had a chance to slay a god yet, and yet Zhang Yanhang, a Fourth Tier Awakener already did? And it was a God of Sun, which sounds very powerful...

Heavenly Destiny Master: "It was an encounter while I was clearing an area before my promotion. At that time, a Peak Fourth Tier lord monster was instantly defeated by my punch, then forcibly extended its life using a skill to open the second stage, summoning a God of Sun, probably in a similar state to a Saint Avatar, but its strength was only at the Early Fifth Tier stage."

Curse Binding Vajra: "..."

As for the part about a Peak Fourth Tier lord monster being instantly defeated by Zhang Yanhang, Gu Mingyue was no longer surprised. After all, he had always been able to kill lord monsters across tiers before.

However, the latter part was quite absurd to her. In the Awakener power system with often tenfold power difference, killing a Fifth Tier God of Sun across two tiers was beyond her imagination. At least, she had never heard of such a thing happening.

Moreover, Gu Mingyue also thought of other things from this. If Zhang Yanhang could kill a Fifth Tier God of Sun at Peak Third Tier, wouldn't his current Peak Fourth Tier strength mean he could even kill her forcibly?

Thinking about this, Gu Mingyue decided to be nicer to Zhang Yanhang in the future, as long as he doesn't say those infuriating things again.

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Although killing the Peak Fourth Tier lord monster was easy, fighting the Fifth Tier God of Sun was still difficult. I had to battle her for quite a while before exhausting her divine power and defeating her completely."

Curse Binding Vajra: "Her? The God of Sun is female?"

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Maybe? Her name was Crotina and her voice sounded feminine, but it could be another gender, like LGBTQIAPK or something. I could only assume her gender was female."

Curse Binding Vajra: "..."

Gu Mingyue thought that if the God of Sun knew she was labeled as LGBTQIAPK, she'd probably be so angry she'd want to come back to life and strangle Zhang Yanhang.

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Are there any other considerations?"

Curse Binding Vajra: "There probably aren't any notable considerations left for you, considering you slayed a god."

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Can you tell me what kind of realm the Fifth Tier is?"

Curse Binding Vajra: "Due to the Spiritual Qi Recovery, heritage has become fragmented, and the Eastern Immortal Cultivation System mostly emphasizes an enigmatic and profound nature, so the specific realm names are quite vague. You can call it True Immortal, Heavenly Immortal, or Profound Immortal."

Curse Binding Vajra: "Since the power difference in the Awakener system is vast even within the same tier, in the past, it would often be divided into several realms. So calling it True Immortal, Heavenly Immortal, or Profound Immortal are all reasonable."

Curse Binding Vajra: "In short, compared to the 'Immortal Land' at Fourth Tier, the Fifth Tier is becoming a true immortal, akin to joining the ranks of immortals in ancient times."

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Is it really this vague?"

Zhang Yanhang originally thought the group leader was always well-informed. Plus, since he's a Fifth Tier Awakened himself, he would obviously know a lot about this rank. But it turns out to be quite normal. Of course, it might be because the group leader has been promoted for a shorter time, so it's understandable.

Curse Binding Vajra: "There's nothing I can do; I also practice the Limitless Universe Skill, which doesn't describe this aspect much. Besides, I haven't read many related texts, so I know relatively little. If you ask those old guys who wrote Limitless Universe Skill, they probably know more."

Curse Binding Vajra: "The main thing is, the data panel is right there, so people generally just use the numeric rank, which is the Fifth Tier, to refer to it directly. Hence, the specific realm name really isn't as important as it used to be."

Heavenly Destiny Master: "That's how it is."

Curse Binding Vajra: "If you were to ask about a more universally accepted realm rank in the Ashen World, leaning towards the Divine Power System, that's something I know more clearly. Compared to the Divine Power System, the Eastern Immortal Cultivation System's power system is indeed rather niche among the Ashen World's myriad power systems."

Curse Binding Vajra: "I've already promoted to the Fifth Tier, and I haven't encountered any related power system regions; mostly, it's other power systems, since these things have such vast numbers. For example, all sorts of science fiction, fantasy, mystical, magic, and western fantasy systems..."

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Indeed, before the Spiritual Qi Recovery, when reading novels, the classification of Xianxia novels was also quite niche."

Heavenly Destiny Master: "So how is the Divine Power System divided?"

Curse Binding Vajra: "I mentioned before that Fourth Tier corresponds to Legendary, with early Fourth Tier being Legendary and late Fourth Tier being High-level Legend. Fifth Tier is more or less the same, with early Fifth Tier being Saint—the Saint like the one who manifests—and late Fifth Tier being Demigod. Then starting at Sixth Tier, it becomes True God, though their Divine Power is usually not very strong."

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Got it. Using the DND power system as division: 21-25 is Legendary, 26-30 is High-level Legend, 31-35 is Saint, 36-40 is Demigod and Pseudo-God who haven't ignited Divine Fire, and over Level 40 is becoming a god."

Zhang Yanhang is quite familiar with this system, since his SS-grade Scroll Dragon Bloodline is indeed a DND power system.

Curse Binding Vajra: "Pretty much."

Curse Binding Vajra: "So, do you have anything else you want to ask?"

Heavenly Destiny Master: "Nothing more."

Heavenly Destiny Master: "So, goodbye!"

Curse Binding Vajra: "?"

After simply understanding the matters of the Fifth Tier, Zhang Yanhang quickly ended the chat and closed his phone's screen.

"I originally thought Legendary was Fourth Tier, Saint was Fifth Tier, and Demigod had to at least be divided into Sixth Tier, but I didn't expect Sixth Tier to already be True God, so Demigod can only be considered Fifth Tier..."

From the current situation, Zhang Yanhang finds the Awakener power system's rank is somewhat more valuable than he anticipated.

"Doesn't that mean when I promote to Sixth Tier, I'll essentially become a god? But the group leader also mentioned the Divine Power of Sixth Tier is generally weak, probably only at the level of Weak Divine Power or Low-level Divine Power, while High-level Divine Power has to be at least Seventh Tier."

Zhang Yanhang feels that Weak Divine Power doesn't even reach his retirement standard; he thinks he must upgrade to High-level Divine Power or even Strong Divine Power to start considering retirement.

Considering he plans to promote to Fifth Tier in a week, Zhang Yanhang estimates he should definitely be able to become a god by the end of the year, as even with one week per rank advancement, there are still three weeks in December left for him to advance to Sixth Tier, which shouldn't be too challenging.

Zhang Yanhang thinks that if he continues to advance in this mode, he should be able to retire smoothly before his birthday next year, and by then, the situation in the Main World should just be fine, without massive permanent teleportation channels opening up.

After all, considering the interval period between teleportation channels, from small-scale permanent openings to large-scale permanent openings would require at least around half a year's development.

"Having nothing to do again, speaking of which, I haven't triggered any mystical occurrences today; I wonder when I'll be able to trigger one today."

Since he hasn't triggered one in the morning, Zhang Yanhang guesses the chance would be larger in the afternoon, then maybe once again in the evening or something.

But triggering mystical occurrences is also about taking the initiative; he thinks if he acts more proactively, the chance of triggering them naturally increases. After all, Multiple Choice often triggers mystical occurrences based on his needs, or 'creates' them for him to trigger.

So, Zhang Yanhang immediately activated the Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil Skill to scan around, of course, for him now, basically, the whole city's三区 are considered his surroundings, plus, from home he can scan Lao Mountain District and the Lao Mountain Taoist Temple to spot the white-beard old Taoist. Seeing this old Taoist is still Fifth Tier reassures him.

While scanning the school, Zhang Yanhang discovers his five unfortunate roommates still haven't returned.

"It's already been a month since they've gone missing, especially in this summer-autumn transitional season. Their bodies are probably already decayed—in the first half of the month decaying and growing maggots, and in the second half starting to turn into bones; now likely only bones and clothes remain.

"So the question arises: now that I've advanced to Fourth Tier, and somewhat attained Divine Skill, should I create an option to look for their bodies?"

Zhang Yanhang feels such options involving ordinary cultivators should consume relatively few Energy Values, and creating an option should easily locate them.

"But what if they didn't die? What if they are still alive and well? Wouldn't that be meddling? After all, from them skipping school for over a month, if they are indeed alive, they must be doing something very important. It might not be wise to disturb them."

Zhang Yanhang thinks for a moment, deciding not to rush into resolving this matter. If they're truly dead, they must have died long ago. If not, they've already managed more than a month, so another week shouldn't be too big a problem.

Hmm, Zhang Yanhang plans to go find his five unfortunate roommates after promoting to Fifth Tier, this time he's really made up his mind, as it's quite impossible to wait until he's Sixth Tier and godly before looking for those five unfortunate roommates, right?

Of course, the main reason Zhang Yanhang keeps delaying is because he is a day student, and has little affection with his roommates—only slightly more than average classmates.

Plus, due to his solitary nature, he doesn't have many shared topics with them. After all, they all have girlfriends, while he firmly adheres to the Self-Immortality path.

And most importantly, during scanning—even though he indeed didn't locate those five unfortunate roommates—he stumbled upon something else.
