This Magic Formation from the Stone Tablet Deity was designed to sever space. By setting it up at specific nodes, the space around the entire Main World could be cut open, carrying the Main World away from this "space-time."
In a sense, this was a "teleportation Magic Formation." By severing space, it could teleport the entire Main World out of this space-time, taking the whole world and running.
Logically speaking, this method made sense.
Since they clearly could not win, they would simply run.
Of course, none of this came without a price.
Driving this Magic Formation required a massive sacrifice. Through the formulas and knowledge contained within the Magic Formation itself, He Ao could quickly calculate what that "price" was:
One-third of the Main World's population—nearly 2.7 billion people—would have to serve as sacrifices to drive this vast Magic Formation.
This Magic Formation was different from the one He Ao had just set up. This teleportation Magic Formation did not accept low-quality sacrifices.
In other words, livestock and wild beasts could not be used as substitutes. Only humans could be offered as sacrifices.
It seemed the Stone Tablet Deity had given He Ao a choice: sacrifice one-third of the people to save the remaining two-thirds, or not.
Of course, all of this was premised on the Magic Formation truly being a teleportation Magic Formation.
He Ao had indeed seen a large number of space-related runes inside this Magic Formation, but because its structure had already exceeded the framework of knowledge he had possessed in the past, he did not know what the Stone Tablet Deity had added into it.
However, He Ao himself was still more inclined to believe that this Magic Formation was indeed a teleportation Magic Formation.
After all, the Mechanical God was now looming right above
