Time and space within the Valley of Vessels were frozen under the indifferent gaze of the projection of the Hyperdimension Divine Thought Projection.
It was as if they had been accelerated to the very end of the world, where everything was collapsing.
Out of curiosity, Xie Jian glanced at the Divine Thought Projection and fell into a mad abyss of cognitive collapse and self-loss.
The blurry projection formed by golden dust focused attention on the evil sword.
Click!
An invisible power of All Things Extraction suddenly descended.
The first thing to collapse was the power of the divine artifact rules that the evil sword was so proud of.
The Dark Red patterns symbolizing the rules of the divine artifact, under this focused gaze, seemed like snowflakes thrown into boiling water, visibly melting and vaporizing, turning into wisps of smoke rising into the air.
Next came the sword that stretched across the sky, Sword of the Masses formed from the remains of countless clansmen and malevolent energy.
The sword emitted a continuous, mournful cry, like the wails of billions of living beings, as its massive structure crumbled at the smallest points where the rules connected it.
Countless tiny sword beams, like Stars deprived of gravity, detached from the main body and exploded into even smaller points of light. Then, under the gaze of the Hyperdimension Divine Thought Projection, these points of light dimmed and vanished.
Next is the evil sword and its host.
"No—don't look."
The evil sword managed to let out a weak roar amidst the confusion of madness and lucidity.
But it was too late.
The host, "Tao," had a robust and muscular body that was like sand and gravel weathered over millions of years. From the skin, muscles, and bones, it was peeled away and pulverized layer by layer from the outside in.
There was no blood splattering or carnage during this process.
Only the collapse of the purest matter and energy structure.
The bulging muscles turned to ashes, the hard bones crumbled into dust, and the powerful life essence contained within the body was forcibly extracted and stripped away, turning into wisps of mist and Liu Guang that detached from the collapsing shell and rose into the air.
The ancient-looking evil sword's hilt had its blood-red eyes No Light, the writhing patterns on its blade were breaking apart inch by inch, and spiderweb-like cracks were appearing on the seemingly indestructible body, spreading rapidly.
Finally, after a soft "clang".
The entire evil sword, along with its already collapsing consciousness, exploded completely, transforming into pure energy and disassembled rule information streams that rose into the air, like rivers flowing into the sea, drawn together by the power of the projection of Hyperdimension Divine Thought Projection.
The power of All Things Extraction was simultaneously applied to the entire Valley of Vessels during this period.
All members of the Evil Sword Sect, regardless of their Hunting Level, share the same fate.
They were as if thrown into an invisible furnace, where bodies, energy, consciousness, and even the connection with the rules of the divine artifacts—all the elements that constitute existence—were brutally decomposed, stripped away, and extracted in the face of the power of the Hyperdimension.
A spectacular scene unfolded in the sky above Qigu Valley in an instant.
Thousands upon thousands of streams of mist and Liu Guang, varying in color and thickness, rose from the valley, like a reversed, blood-red meteor shower.
Ultimately, without exception, they all disappeared into the blurry golden projection's slightly open "palm" phantom.
There was no clash of forces throughout the entire process.
Even though the Hyperdimension in a weakened state expends a great deal of energy to attack, even a mere wisp of Divine Thought Projection is something the Divine Artifact Race cannot withstand.
As easily as brushing away dust, the artifact race was wiped away and recycled.
As the last streak of Liu Guang disappeared into the golden projection, the Valley of Weapons fell into Deathly Stillness.
The gale subsided, and the dust settled.
The blurry golden projection slowly faded in outline, and the dazzling golden dust receded inward like the receding tide.
"Holy crap?!?!"
A piercing scream echoed in the battle channel. The assassin leader of the third guild stared wide-eyed, his voice trembling with disbelief. "Am I seeing things? Such a massive Demigod, and all the monsters in the valley—just like that—gone?"
ah?"
"This is outrageous! Buying this Substitute Card for only 12 million yuan is an incredible profit."
"Is the power of All Things Extraction really that powerful? Not even ashes were left; it was all decomposed, packaged, and taken away—wait, what about the rules? Were the rules decomposed too?"
"My mom asked me why I was kneeling while watching the live stream, offering Blessing to the Four Gods (devoutly kneeling. jpg)."
"Awesome!" (voice cracks)
Besides the internal channels of the battle group, God King's personal live stream also went completely wild.
Before the war with the Divine Artifact Clan, the God King started Live Stream Mode with the title. "Golden Blessing Card, Ready to Go".
As the only known gold-quality Blessing Card in the entire server, the value of this card is quite ambiguous.
The title of God King's live stream attracted a large number of players to come and watch the drama unfold.
Following the live stream, they witnessed the combined forces' fierce battle in the Valley of Weapons over several days, and also experienced the anxiety of waiting for the return of the Evil Sword.
Throughout the entire session, the live chat was constantly buzzing.
"I've been waiting for three days. Has the Evil Sword gotten lost? If it doesn't come back soon, the Blessing Card will get moldy ( Dog Head )."
"To be honest, is this card really worth 12 million? I haven't seen God King use it in his commands these past few days, did he get ripped off?"
"You don't know anything. With only one minute, of course we have to wait for the Evil Sword to appear before using it. Using it now would be a huge waste."
"A rational analysis suggests that this is a one-time consumable item, and a level 1 gold one at that, with a vague effect description. 3 million is the maximum price; 12 million is pure 'stupidity tax.'"
"Shut up, you poor bastard! You think you can value the power of the Four Gods? If used correctly, it's worth a hundred million. Believe me, the God King might just take over the rules of the divine artifact this time!"
" Detailed Study Faction passing by observed that, according to background information, the level of the Hyperdimension is frighteningly high, and its value cannot be measured by conventional Sacrificial Power."
The comments section was filled with conflicting opinions, and the argument was fierce.
But all the players wanted to see for themselves just how powerful this unique gold card in the entire server could be.
This battle also attracted the attention of Life Throat and Night Abyss.
They were all very disappointed to learn that a gold card had been issued and then snapped up by the God King for 12 million.
They were once Demigod, but they understood better than ordinary players what the " Four Gods " meant in the Monster World.
That is the supreme being that truly stands at the pinnacle of all rules and concepts.
If used properly, this "divine blessing" card can easily create value exceeding 100 million.
But what's missed is missed; Fortuitous Encounter are not something you can force.
After several days of waiting, when the evil sword returned with overwhelming malevolent energy, it unleashed the " Sword of the Masses," a move that shook the heavens and earth.
The live stream chat exploded with comments, all eagerly anticipating the Divine Might of the Blessing Card.
Then, they saw the God King take out the gold card.
Golden dust condensed in the air.
All viewers, whether ordinary players or Life Throat Night Abyss, witnessed a miracle at this moment.
The last streak of Liu Guang disappeared into the golden projection's palm.
The live stream room remained completely Deathly Stillness.
Several seconds later, a comment slowly floated by. "Holy crap!"
Immediately afterwards, the barrage of comments exploded like a burst dam.
This time, it wasn't an argument, but rather a flurry of exclamations and reverence.
"I'm kneeling before the Hyperdimension Master! This power is incredible!"
"Evil Sword: If you'd told me you had the Golden Blessing Card, I would have just given it to you directly. Why be so ruthless? ( Explorer curls up and cries unconscious. jpg)"
Life Throat and Night Abyss, these two beings who once stood at the level of the Demigod Realm, also fell silent at this moment.
What surged within him was an emotion far stronger than that of ordinary players.
From the direction of Dream Island, across the live stream screen, Life Throat placed one hand on his forehead, offering the highest respect to the blurry golden phantom in the image.
Night Abyss, kneeling on one knee in the land of tides, placed his Left Hand on his right chest, offering his respects through the screen.
They knew that no matter how far apart they were, the Four Gods would be able to Perception them.
Even if this respect is shown, Hyperdimension doesn't care at all.
They should also bow down and do not fail to live up to the miracles they have witnessed.
The Divine Might displayed by the Blessing Card instantly propelled the related topic to the top of the Forum's trending list.
The various communication channels were instantly flooded with a massive amount of information.
Exclamation marks and question marks flew together, and the exclamations of "Holy crap!" from different players were endless.
Through live streams or edited clips, they witnessed a "harvest" that Transcendence their current understanding.
This battle is unlike any other war since the game's launch.
There were no dazzling skill exchanges, no arduous back-and-forth battles, and not even screams or explosions.
All the enemies vanished without a trace, like words erased by an eraser.
It brought about an unprecedented impact.
It even caused the " Four Gods' Blessing " gameplay to experience a surge in the amount of Sacrificial Power required in a short period of time.
On the other side.
In the air, the blurry golden projection had disappeared.
Above the Valley of Weapons, the gloomy sky that had been disrupted by the battle returned, as if everything that had just happened was merely a collective illusion.
Just as the God King was staring blankly in the direction where the Hyperdimension Divine Thought Projection had disappeared, wondering why his divine artifact's rules had also vanished.
A sudden change occurred.
Golden ripples spread out from the spot where the Hyperdimension Divine Thought Projection disappeared.
Then countless Liu Guang converged and reshaped into the artifact rule imprint that had just been decomposed, which fell from the sky.
The God King's pupils contracted sharply, and his clenched heart was overwhelmed by a torrent of ecstatic joy.
"They're here!"
Without hesitation, his telekinetic power surged forth, transforming into an invisible hand that precisely caught the falling Dark Gold rule imprint and pulled it onto his outstretched palm.
The stamped part has no actual weight.
It floats and swirls quietly in the palm of your hand, radiating a warm and understated Dark Gold luster.
Upon close inspection, one can see countless tiny runes operating inside.
"I was so scared! I thought it was gone."
He finally obtained the most important key, which was the victory he desired; defeating the artifact race was never the core objective.
An irrepressible joy appeared on the face of the God King.
After a brief silence.
Someone in the channel suddenly let out an excited, almost distorted War Cry: "We won!"
That sound was like igniting a powder keg.
"We're awesome, invincible!"
"What kind of divine artifact race? Effortlessly, they're not even worthy of carrying the Bully's shoes."
"If the Divine Descent Card were used in the village, even the Bully would probably be killed instantly."
"Stop talking nonsense. If the Bully is gone, who will support us?"
The players in the united front erupted in emotions like a volcano.
Cheers, roars, and excited screams echoed throughout the valley, causing the ruins to vibrate and create a deafening sound wave.
The Origin Altar.
Qi Sheng turned his gaze away from the direction of the equipment valley.
He followed the entire battle closely.
The overwhelming power of the Hyperdimension Divine Thought Projection over the Divine Artifact Race was nothing out of the ordinary to him.
As one of the Four Gods who govern the Monster World, its power is one of the "supreme" powers written into the underlying logic of the world.
The forms and levels of power are concepts that most living beings cannot comprehend.
Using it to deal with an evil sword that grows by devouring emotions and can only advance to the Demigod Realm by fusing with rules is akin to a dimensional reduction attack.
The effect was immediate, bringing a surge of traffic to the new feature.
Many players went to the new building to Blessing, hoping to try their luck and draw a golden Blessing Card.
Even if you don't use it yourself, you can get rich by reselling it.
This allowed the Four Gods to recover somewhat quickly.
And this time, Hyperdimension's appearance fee was also incredibly high.
The Four Gods, including the one from the Hyperdimension, are currently all severely injured and low on health, and their ability to use their power is greatly limited and consumed.
The "divine descent" that the God King requested through the Blessing Card was essentially him spending money to have a wisp of divine thought Hyperdimension Avatar.
To make up for the losses from this operation, Hyperdimension extracted all the members of the Evil Sword Sect, taking away all the essence and leaving only the most core element for the God King: the rules of the divine artifact.
It's fun to have someone else play your account, but the player who benefits is the one who loses out.
The use of the "Divine Descent Card" this time has achieved a good publicity effect.
He decided to further reduce the drop rate of Divine Descent Cards by 50%.
Although the original probability of production was already very low, in order to save money and maintain the scarcity that this "strategic miracle" should have.
He felt it was necessary to cut it in half again.
The Battle of Qigu has come to an end.
But the feast of harvest has only just begun.
With the destruction of the Evil Sword Sect, the distorted spatial vortex at the center of the Weapon Valley, like a treasure vault with its gates wide open, extended an invitation to the united battle group.
At this moment, the God King hovered at the entrance of the vortex, waved his hand, and his voice resounded through the battle channel to every player's ears. "Leave nothing behind, take everything, pack up and take away everything of value."
"Yay!!!"
The players from the united battle group below, who had been unable to contain themselves any longer, erupted in thunderous cheers.
--
Having won a hard-fought victory, their enthusiasm for plundering the spoils reached its peak.
After the God King stepped into the spatial vortex first, the massive Player Legion surged into it like a floodgate opening.
After a brief feeling of weightlessness, everything suddenly opened up before me.
Inside, the scene was completely different from the desolate and dilapidated state of Qigu.
The independent space was vast, with Dark Red sky devoid of sun, moon, Stars, except for several Spatial Rift that stretched across the sky like giant wounds, shimmering with energy halos.
The earth has no soil; it is composed of a strange rock with a metallic sheen, hard and cold.
The entire space was filled with swords.
As far as the eye can see, mountains, plains, and even strangely shaped Dark Red rocks are densely covered with countless swords of various shapes.
Some are covered in rust and have already decayed, some gleam with a cold light and still exude a faint spirituality, some are as huge as mountains, piercing the clouds, and some are as small as needles, hidden in the crevices of rocks.
These swords are distributed in a way that seems random but actually contains profound laws, and there are invisible energy connections between them, forming a giant three-dimensional sword array that covers the entire clan's territory.
The God King the analysis and scan.
It was discovered that this was the Sword Burial Array, a long-term project created by the Evil Sword Sect lineage of the Divine Artifact Clan.
If a large-scale invasion of the core territory of the Divine Artifact Clan occurs, this formation can be activated, triggering the resonance of billions of swords to form a devastating torrent of sword energy that will annihilate all invading enemies.
Unfortunately, before they could activate the array, their entire race was taken away by the projection of Divine Thought Projection from the Hyperdimension.
The ultimate defense system, built with countless efforts and resources, has become a heritage museum, quietly waiting for them to come and dismantle it.
Seeing this, the brothers in the united battle group were also extremely excited.
"Holy crap, how many swords are there here? They could probably sell for over a hundred million Sacrificial Power!"
"We've struck it rich! Take it all! Brothers, open the plugins, tally the spoils, and then we'll split the Sacrificial Power together!" This was the ecstatic joy of the forging party.
"Be careful, these swords might still have remnants of their protective seals—but whatever, what's there to be afraid of? I'll just die, resurrect, and come back to move them."
After the initial amazement, the frenzied looting began.
Players swarmed into this world of swords like locusts.
The Tanking Group and melee players formed a pathfinder, using Brute Force to violently pull out the swords stuck in the ground and store them in their Spatial Inventory.
If your baggage is full, just throw it on the ground, and the other brothers will pick it up.
In terms of loot distribution, there's a plugin to track the spoils, so no one can keep any for themselves.
We'll deal with it all at once, either by listing it on the Trading House or selling it to the Gold Coin Merchant Association.
Everyone gets a share of the final Sacrificial Power's benefits.
The magic-based players took charge of the finer tasks, releasing their telekinetic powers to levitate, while the Eagle Head Demon activated their Perception to scan the land, searching for any hidden treasures.
During the looting process, if players find that a weapon's material is too poor and the Gold Coin Merchant Association and Trading House can't handle it, they will directly Sacrifice to the Di Zhao.
The benefits gained from Sacrifice will also be simultaneously recorded in the "War of Mutual Aid" plugin.
The entire core territory of the Divine Artifact Clan instantly transformed into a massive demolition site.
The clanging of swords being drawn, the sounds of smashing and destruction, and the excited shouts of players mingled together.
When players encounter high-quality items, they analyze them and share screenshots in the battle group chat channel, enjoying the exclamations of admiration from their brothers.
The looting frenzy continues to escalate.
Every sword that is drawn will be transformed into tangible nourishment for the growth of the players in the Allied Forces.
During this time, the God King hovered high in the sky in an independent space, looking down at the bustling scene below, a slight smile playing on his lips.
He didn't participate in the actual looting, but his mental power, like an invisible network, covered the entire area, scanning everything.
Perception perception swept over the piles of swords that had been uprooted and were now stacked like mountains, over the stone doors and secret chambers that had been violently broken open, and over the undisguised excitement on his brothers' faces—at that moment, a thought suddenly popped into his mind.
Resources can be moved, buildings can be demolished—but what about this isolated space itself?
His gaze fell upon the edge of the Dark Red sky, where the spatial barrier blurred the boundary with the outside world.
This independent space, which has been managed by the artifact race for a long time, is clearly made of space-related materials and has value in itself.
Even if many materials have been fused together, they are difficult to break down without special methods.
But as long as it is a spiritual material, it has value, and Sacrifice as a sacrifice is an additional benefit.
As for the destruction of the stable structure of the independent space, which may trigger spatial collapse and void turbulence, causing everything inside to be torn apart or banished to the unknown void—this is not a problem at all.
Even if everyone dies, consider it a free return to the city.
However, this can only be done after the brothers have taken all the valuable materials.
Having clarified his thoughts, the God King's Perception began to extend into deeper space.
He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, a cool silver light flowed deep within his pupils: Spirit Eye Trait, activated!
In an instant, the panoramic Perception provided by the Eagle Head Demon underwent a dramatic transformation, as if a dimension had been superimposed, due to the superposition of the Spirit Eye's characteristics.
The Perception feedback is no longer to concrete things.
Everything in sight lost its appearance.
The entire independent space is transformed into a three-dimensional energy architecture model woven from countless crisscrossing lines and nodes of varying brightness and color, flowing with different attribute information.
The sky was no longer a Dark Red curtain, but was woven from layers of space lattices, like a honeycomb, with each node inlaid with space crystals that emitted a faint glow.
Beneath the earth, besides the rocks, one can see the flow of earth vein energy like blood vessels, which connects with the crystalline structure of the sky to form the framework supporting the entire space.
Further away, the spatial barrier was clearly visible; it was a multi-layered energy membrane woven from complex runes.
The energy flow path, structural weaknesses, and supporting nodes of the entire independent space were all presented with unparalleled clarity in the God King's mind at this moment.
Just then, a highly concealed energy anomaly in his Spirit Eye vision caught his attention.
Far from the main building area, behind a seemingly ordinary rocky outcrop near the edge of the spatial barrier.
From a normal perspective, it appears to be a solid Rock Wall, unremarkable in any way.
However, with the Spirit Eye's deep analysis, he saw that the spatial lattice structure there overlapped, and several key ley line energy trajectories quietly diverged here, flowing into the energy circulation loop hidden behind the Rock Wall.
"A mezzanine? A sealed room?"
The God King's eyes narrowed, and his figure, lifted by telekinesis, transformed into a streak of Liu Guang, traversing thousands of meters to arrive before the seemingly ordinary Rock Wall.
With your feet firmly planted on solid ground, you are faced with cold, hard, Dark Red rocks, indistinguishable from the surrounding environment.
But in the Spirit Eye's vision, no disguise can be hidden.
He clearly saw that the Rock Wall was merely an appearance.
Inside is a small, complex Space Teleportation Array, embedded in the framework of the independent space, maintaining a subtle connection with the main space.
Driven by curiosity, he started the analysis and scanning.
[Artifact Teleportation Array ]:
Objective Description: This is an exclusive connection channel between the independent space and the Small World of the Divine Artifact Clan's homeland. It is a crucial contingency plan laid out by the Evil Sword to preserve the flame of the Divine Artifact Clan in order to cope with unknown difficulties.
The Teleportation Array is based on an independent spatial framework and maintains its connection with the main space through array formations. Once activated, it can accurately anchor to the coordinates of the artifact race's home world, enabling the race to evacuate and return across space.
Upon discovering that this formation was connected to the home world of the Divine Artifact Clan, the God King immediately had the idea of going to investigate.
To paraphrase Forum- Exploration Party player. "Since we're already here, how can we call ourselves players if we don't try our luck? What if it's a stroke of Fortuitous Encounter?"
The God King thought this statement made a lot of sense.
When faced with a potential Fortuitous Encounter, players can completely disregard the risks and begin an investigation.
There are question marks appearing before me; I won't get to the point if I don't click to see what's going on.
