As the gods prepared to seize her realm, an overwhelming presence froze the world, and the gathered deities realized that someone had come to see Dao Lord off.

• Xu Zhi saw that players planned to raise Pixel Creatures as pets, use them for AFK cultivation, and eventually offer decomposition and fusion services.
