Chapter 421: 421 Chapter 421: Faith Eternal, Earth Knight Bai Yiyuan brought Shi Xing’an and Liang Yue over. Having experienced life and death, the two were now inseparable. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚 It was their first time at the White God Courtyard, facing top figures like Bai Yiyuan and Meng Anwen. Shi Xing’an and Liang Yue were very nervous and extremely reserved. It wasn’t until they saw Lin Moyu that they relaxed a bit. Meng Anwen had already prepared the job change array and looked at Shi Xing’an, "You are too excited right now, calm down first." Shi Xing’an dared not disobey Meng Anwen’s words and immediately sat down, trying to calm himself. However, his thoughts were in turmoil, and he couldn’t calm down. Not being calm was detrimental to the job change. Lin Moyu understood this and said to Shi Xing’an, "Brother Shi, it’s just a job change." "Teacher Meng and Teacher Bai have prepared everything. As long as you maintain firm faith, you have more than a 60% chance of triggering a job upgrade." Shi Xing’an tried to regulate his breathing, "I understand, but I’m still a bit nervous." Liang Yue walked over and suddenly kicked Shi Xing’an lightly, "You stone head, are you a man or not? You’re not afraid of death, so what’s there to fear about a job change?" Liang Yue knew Shi Xing’an best, and her words woke him up. Yes, he wasn’t afraid of death, so what was there to be nervous about? It was just a job change, nothing to be afraid of. Lin Moyu had prepared the precious Heart of the Earth and Earth Gem for him. Bai Yiyuan had prepared various materials, and the top array master of the human race had personally crafted the job change array for him. What was there to fear? Finally, he calmed down and respectfully saluted Meng Anwen and Bai Yiyuan, "Thank you, Teacher Meng and Teacher Bai." Shi Xing’an walked to the center of the array, and Meng Anwen pointed his finger, activating the job change array with a humming sound. Beams of light shot into the sky, converging into a rainbow of colors, then descended like a glow, enveloping Shi Xing’an. Shi Xing’an held the Earth Gem in his left hand and the Heart of the Earth in his right. The Heart of the Earth could trigger a special job upgrade for a Paladin during the second job change, turning them into an Earth Knight. With the Earth Gem, the probability of triggering the upgrade would be greatly increased. Lin Moyu and Liang Yue watched quietly. Shi Xing’an was calm now, but Liang Yue was nervous. Lin Moyu said, "Sister Yue, don’t be nervous. Believe in Brother Shi, he will be fine." Liang Yue nodded, "I believe in him." She said so, but her rapidly rising and falling chest and clenched fists betrayed her. Shi Xing’an was now oblivious to everything, completely calm. He quickly recalled his experiences over the years, especially the recent deaths of his three comrades who died protecting him from the Dragon Tribe. This further fueled his desire to become an Earth Knight. Only by becoming an Earth Knight and reaching god-level could he have a chance to invade the Dragon Tribe and avenge his fallen brothers. At this moment, Shi Xing’an discarded any thoughts of failure. He couldn’t fail, wouldn’t fail, and mustn’t fail! His faith grew stronger, and a faint power began to grow within him. The power of the array poured into him, breaking through his level barrier. Now, two paths lay before Shi Xing’an: one was to become a Grand Knight, a title for Paladins after the second job change, essentially the same as a Paladin. The other was to become an Earth Knight, which depended half on luck and half on himself. "I must become an Earth Knight!" "I believe that man can conquer nature!" "I will not retreat, I must succeed!" "I will avenge my brothers, invade the Dragon Tribe, and protect the human race." The power of faith grew stronger. The Earth Gem in his left hand began to glow faintly. The light grew stronger. Shi Xing’an activated the Earth Gem with the power of faith. Under the glow of the Earth Gem, the Heart of the Earth in his right hand also began to emit a faint light. The two lights merged, enveloping Shi Xing’an. They merged with the job change array and entered Shi Xing’an’s body. Shi Xing’an slowly rose into the air, suspended in mid-air. "It’s done!" Bai Yiyuan exclaimed. Meng Anwen sighed softly, "It’s been many years since the human race had an Earth Knight. Finally, we have one again." Lin Moyu said softly, "Brother Shi activated the Earth Gem and the Heart of the Earth with his faith, triggering the job upgrade." Liang Yue was in tears, extremely excited, "I knew you could do it." Lin Moyu thought of the last moment in the Corpse Realm. It was the god-level strongmen of the human race who protected him. Even after turning into corpses and being dead for thousands of years, their faith in protecting the human race never wavered. Protecting the human race. It was ingrained in their bones, deep in their souls, and even time couldn’t erase it. Having experienced that, Lin Moyu believed in the power of faith to create miracles. He also believed that if he ever dispelled the corpse poison, those strongmen with eternal faith might return. Faith eternal! Lin Moyu silently chanted, and at this moment, he too had a strong faith. A vast power surged, changing the color of the sky and earth. A phantom land appeared in the sky, like a mirage. This land was vast, covering all directions, and lasted for two minutes before slowly fading. In Lin Moyu’s eyes, the land shrank and finally merged into Shi Xing’an’s body. Shi Xing’an’s aura rose significantly. Heavenly phenomena appeared, and rainbow light poured in from all directions, entering Shi Xing’an’s body. The Earth Knight was the pinnacle of knight professions, the strongest knight, bar none. The job change would inevitably cause heavenly phenomena. The Heart of the Earth seemed to come alive, beating like a heart. With each beat, the earth trembled. The Heart of the Earth and the Earth Gem entered Shi Xing’an’s body. In an instant, Shi Xing’an’s body glowed brightly. The earth roared, and Shi Xing’an descended. Powerful energy waves spread from the earth. Meng Anwen said, "The Earth Knight connects with the power of the earth, drawing endless energy from it. As long as they stand on the earth, their power is inexhaustible." "All attacks on them will have 90% of the damage absorbed by the earth." "Each attack will trigger the power of the earth." Meng Anwen’s three sentences highlighted the essence of the Earth Knight’s power. As long as they stood on the earth, their endurance was limitless, 90% of all damage was directly negated, and their attacks were enhanced by the power of the earth. The Earth Knight was the favored child of the earth. Such a profession was bound to be powerful. Someone once said, "To defeat an Earth Knight, you must fight them in the sky. But against an Earth Knight, you can’t even get off the ground." With a soft hum, an aura appeared under Shi Xing’an’s feet. Then a second, a third aura appeared. In an instant, four auras appeared under Shi Xing’an’s feet. Red, blue, green, and yellow auras rotated slowly under his feet. These auras were similar to those of a Holy Light Knight but much stronger. The Earth Knight had everything a Holy Light Knight had and more. Ten minutes later, Shi Xing’an slowly descended. The job change array stopped, and the job change was complete. Liang Yue, with tears of joy, flew into Shi Xing’an’s arms, hugging him tightly. Shi Xing’an suppressed his excitement, "I succeeded." Liang Yue nodded vigorously, "I knew you could do it." After a moment of tenderness, Shi Xing’an walked over and respectfully saluted Meng Anwen and Bai Yiyuan, "Thank you, Teacher Meng and Teacher Bai." Bai Yiyuan waved his hand, "No need to thank us. Thank Lin Moyu. He got the Heart of the Earth and the Earth Gem. Without them, we couldn’t have done it." Shi Xing’an was about to thank Lin Moyu, but Lin Moyu stopped him. "Brother Shi, no need for that." "If it were you, you would do the same." Lin Moyu’s sincerity made Shi Xing’an laugh heartily, "Then I won’t say more. If you need anything, just say the word, and I’ll go through fire and water for you." Lin Moyu smiled, "Just remember your faith, Brother Shi." Shi Xing’an’s face turned serious, "I will never forget." Lin Moyu smiled and handed him a shield. "This is a gift to celebrate your becoming an Earth Knight." Shi Xing’an took the shield and was shocked, "This is too valuable." Lin Moyu waved his hand, "Don’t return it. If you don’t like it, throw it away." Throw it away? Shi Xing’an couldn’t bear to. Lin Moyu gave him the best shield he had. It was better than the Earth Touch Dragon God’s shield. It came from the core area of the Ancient Battlefield, the [Battlefield Turtle Shield].
