Less than three months! Is this for real?!

The scene unfolding before them left the nine Calamity Spirits utterly dumbfounded.

Even with their vast experience, they had never encountered such a situation.

Storm Elf: "Wow! Is that really the Poison Dart skill? So strong, so strong!"

Death Poison Elf: "I've never seen such a shameless Poison Element skill…"

Frost Elf: "I thought with the elemental spirits' toxin decay aura, we wouldn't need to worry about any Poison Element skills or damage. I never expected… a miracle, a miracle~"

The spirits were all completely awestruck.

Meanwhile, in the arena, Qin Feng's Poison Dart damage, after poisoning the Calamity Spirits to Death, restored the stacks of his 'Death Eulogy'.

The moment he was killed, he revived on the spot.

Then, another Calamity Spirit would be killed by the Poison Dart damage, and the Death Eulogy stacks would be restored again.

This cycle repeated…

Qin Feng once again entered a state of living and dying, dying and living.

In this state, he was pressed down by gravity exceeding ten thousand times, unable to lift his head or move at all. All his skills were disabled…

Only his Poison Dart continued to stack relentlessly in the arena!

Since the Poison Dart stacks decayed by half every second, and the number of surrounding elemental spirits was constantly changing, the Poison Dart stacks on each monster fluctuated wildly, like a roller coaster.

But no matter how they changed, these elemental spirits acted strictly on command, continuously killing Qin Feng without any thought of self-preservation, so they took no measures against the accumulating Poison Dart stacks…

Therefore, whenever new elemental spirits spawned nearby, they were immediately infected with extremely high Poison Dart stacks, layer upon layer without end.

Five billion layers.

Ten billion layers.

Fifteen billion layers…

In some densely packed corners of elemental spirits, the Poison Dart stacks even skyrocketed to hundreds of billions of layers, rapidly wiping out all the elemental spirits in that area…

With toxins erupting across the entire arena, Qin Feng's 'Death Eulogy' stacks were replenished almost constantly.

What left Qin Feng even more speechless was that the spawn rate of elemental spirits in this place was actually increasing faster and faster.

Wasn't this even more convenient for stacking poison?

Even if the newly spawned elemental spirits were stronger, as long as there were enough of them, they would eventually die!

…

The Frenzy Fire Spirit's pervasive killing intent completely dissipated. After a long silence, it uttered: "He… is invincible. If he becomes the first player to clear this, he'll make history!"

Darkest Elf: "I actually misjudged him… how embarrassing, how embarrassing…"

Blood Elf: "Analyzing rationally, this is Lord Utos's survival challenge, and there's a slight oversight. Just setting a self-preservation command for the elemental spirits would easily dispel all the Poison Dart stacks."

Holy Light Spirit smiled slightly: "This loophole was discovered a thousand years ago, but for the sake of fairness, it wasn't patched. Remember that one from back then? He also relied on this small loophole to push through to nine and a half days, holding the top spot for a full thousand years. A thousand years later, here comes another one. And this one… doesn't seem to have reached his limit yet…"

Storm Elf was extremely active and excited: "Will today's contender break the record? Anticipation, anticipation!"

In the arena.

The more elemental spirits, the higher the Poison Dart stacks, the greater the damage, and the faster the elemental spirits were killed…

So, even though the elemental spirits spawned faster and grew stronger, the overall number in the arena didn't change much. Qin Feng's Death Eulogy stacks also remained above 1.

The environmental Calamity damage around him grew higher and higher!

Qin Feng was even instantly killed the moment he revived!

But…

If he was already instantly killed, what did it matter how high the environmental Calamity damage was?

Even if the Calamity damage was ten thousand times his HP, it could only take one of his lives at a time, utterly incapable of killing Qin Feng for good.

Finally…

As Qin Feng's Ancient-Grade skills were also disabled one by one, his damage output periodically dropped significantly.

All sorts of damage boosts—Nightmare damage boost, poison damage boost, Upper Affix damage boost… a whole series of boosts—all became ineffective.

Reducing Qin Feng's damage to a pitiful level.

If it weren't for the tens of billions of Poison Dart stacks sustaining him in the arena, Qin Feng would be completely helpless now.

"If these elemental spirits could self-preserve and dispel the poison, my trick would be useless."

"Or, if some of the elemental spirits clustered together and were quickly poisoned to Death, while the others scattered until there were no other elemental spirits in range, the poison wouldn't spread. After five seconds when the poison ends, the arena would be clean…"

Qin Feng was truly taking advantage of these elemental spirits.

But the challenge rules for the All-Civilization Ranking couldn't be modified mid-challenge; that would be unfair.

Ninth day, twentieth hour…

Ninth day, twenty-first hour…

Ninth day, twenty-second hour…

In the final few hours of the survival challenge, Qin Feng constantly switched between life and Death—extremely thrilling!

However, Qin Feng wasn't completely idle either.

After all, aside from the initial Death, every subsequent Death caused him to drop half of his lifespan and non-tradable lifespan.

Fortunately, these elemental spirits didn't come to absorb the lifespan light orbs…

Every time Qin Feng revived, he frantically absorbed the lifespan light orbs on the spot, ensuring he suffered no losses in lifespan…

Finally.

On the tenth day since Qin Feng began the survival challenge.

Amidst constant Death and revival, Qin Feng survived until the very end!

——

[Congratulations! You have completed the Calamity Ancient God's Survival Challenge!]

[You have only been in the God Forsaken Game for 77 (87) days… After game time weighting and clearance bonus weighting, your final survival time is: 474.03 days.]

[Congratulations on obtaining the final ranking for the 'Calamity Ancient God's Survival Challenge': 1st Place!]

[Congratulations on obtaining the Reincarnation attribute: Bloodline Slots +3!]

[Congratulations on obtaining 1 Skill Inheritance opportunity. Please communicate with the Calamity Spirits!]

——

Completed!

Qin Feng revived once more, his body enveloped in a lingering glow of nine elemental lights. The surrounding elemental spirits all vanished amidst the virulent green poison light…

Along with the system notification, Qin Feng's rewards were directly credited!

"Bloodline slots increased by three!"

"So overpowering!"

Qin Feng felt an exhilarating thrill shoot straight through the top of his head.

Who knew how much of a boost this Reincarnation Buff would give him?

The Calamity Spirits, already utterly shocked that Qin Feng had actually cleared the ten-day survival challenge, now plunged into an even more unbelievable frenzy.

Because they had been speculating all along: just how many years into its reincarnation was the Blue Star Civilization of this Human Assassin codenamed 'Shadow'?

Some guessed three years, some five, the boldest only guessed two and a half.

But they never expected…

"When he first entered, the God Forsaken Game had only been active for 77 days?"

"Now that he's finished, it's only the 87th day? Less than three months?"

"Is this for real?!"

The nine Calamity Spirits instantly lost their ability to think, all staring dumbfounded at Qin Feng in the arena!

The previous record-holder, who had held the top spot for a thousand years, had a weighted total survival time of 60.83 days, with a base score of 9.5 days. He began the survival challenge on the 570th day after the God Forsaken Game descended…

As for Qin Feng, base score 10 days, a direct clear, and he began the challenge on the 77th day after the game descended. His development time was only about one-seventh or one-eighth of that thousand-year-old record holder!

How could the Calamity Spirits not look as if they'd seen a ghost?

At the same time…

As Qin Feng finally secured first place in the Calamity Ancient God's survival challenge, the entire Order Land shook once more!

The first to be affected was…

The Blue Star Sakura Country contestant who was taking a desperate risk, deciding to seize this opportunity to participate in surrounding and killing an Immortal-grade BOSS—that very senior elder, Okamoto Takeo!

At this moment, Okamoto Takeo was navigating the pursuit mechanics of the Immortal-grade BOSS…

Originally, his speed was almost enough to evade the BOSS's pursuit. After all, this point was clarified when the 'Thousand Eyes Temple' was recruiting members for the encirclement—applicants needed at least twenty-four times the speed of sound.

But suddenly, Okamoto Takeo's ranking in the Calamity Ancient God Challenge dropped from 1000th place to 1001st.

His Reincarnation Buff dropped from a 40% increase to a single Bloodline attribute to a mere 4% increase!

This caused all his attributes to plummet significantly!

The fatal consequence was that his speed… became just a tiny, tiny bit slower than the Immortal-grade BOSS pursuing him!

"Uh-oh."

Okamoto Takeo only had a moment for stunned disbelief before everything went dark before his eyes…
