Return and Summary!

Wang Xuan circulated the true qi within his body, manifesting a massive golden hand that completely enveloped the Great Evil King.

The Great Evil King, which had still been communicating with the resentment of heaven and earth, had its connection forcibly severed by the true qi, causing the blade to tremble violently.

Wang Xuan dared not be careless and immediately stored it into his storage bag. At the same time, he drained the corpse of Hoshino Taki, obtaining another storage bag.

After finishing this, Wang Xuan moved his body and headed toward Haining Prefecture.

The city was deathly silent. The rumbling sounds from the distance were still echoing, and the commoners huddled in their homes in terror, none daring to step out to investigate.

Wang Xuan arrived in the city once more. Under the Emperor's Qi-Gazing Technique, he discovered that the auras of Grandmaster players were long gone.

Most of them had been slaughtered by him, and the rest had fled while he was engaged in battle with the Great Evil King.

Wang Xuan did not care. With a flicker of movement, he dropped down from the roof of a ruined building. Looking at the despairing Orona, he couldn't help but take a few extra glances.

In the eighteen years he had spent on the Origin Earth Star, he had never seen a fair-skinned Royal Clan member with blonde hair and blue eyes. It was rumored that the Origin Earth Star had long since fallen into the hands of the Longevity Families, and those of other races had already emigrated to life-sustaining planets.

"I... I am Orona Augustus of the Augustus Royal Clan," Orona said weakly. "I never expected you to be able to defeat even a rampaging Great Evil King. The mission initiated by the institute was a complete failure; they shouldn't have sent people of our level. Please, give me a quick death..."

"A quick death? Fine." Wang Xuan brushed his waist, and a God-Splitting Spike appeared in his hand.

"You... this is unfair! Discrimination, this is discrimination!" Orona's lips trembled. He sat up abruptly despite his dying state, his voice shrill.

A ghostly light flashed, and the short spike sank into his chest up to the hilt.

Wang Xuan sucked with a single palm, lifting the corpse from the ground into the air. In the blink of an eye, he drained it into ashes. A series of martial arts popped up on his panel, and he focused his gaze on one: [Great Vajra Divine Power].

It was another physical hardening technique, far stronger than the Indestructible Diamond Divine Skill.

Time passed, and the golden sun slowly emerged from the sea.

"Another high-level God and Devil martial art." Wang Xuan retrieved a storage bag from the corpse of a player servant, probed it with his senses, released the Royal Clan corpses hidden within, and casually drained both bodies.

On his panel, the martial arts he had carefully selected were neatly arranged:

[Great Vajra Divine Power], [Ten Tribulations of the Evil King], [Zhouliu Six Voids Technique], [True Martial Arts of the Black Tortoise], [Four Absolutes of Heaven-Mixing], [Profound Yin Fate Sword], [Marrow Cleansing Sutra (Dragon Tiger Gate)], [Dao Heart Demon Planting Technique].

Excluding some duplicate techniques, there were also [Nirvana of Fatal Demise], [Energy-Returning Blood Hand], [World-Destroying Demon Body], and [Heaven-Shifting Divine Formula], though it was a pity there was no [Mahavairocana Immeasurable].

Of course, there were still some fish that slipped through the net, or his harvest would have been even greater.

Regarding the God-Splitting Spikes alone, excluding the ones already used, twenty-one remained.

The harvest from this plot world was truly immense. In the third-tier plot world, he could end the game the moment he entered; there was no need to even search for martial arts, he could simply ascend to the top.

"Let them run, then." Wang Xuan had no intention of chasing the survivors; mainly, he couldn't catch them even if he wanted to.

Those servant Grandmasters would bury their storage bags somewhere and then commit suicide to exit the plot world. Once a person died, their aura would dissipate rapidly. To find the storage bags, one would have to dig three feet into the earth across the entire world.

A year passed in the blink of an eye.

During this time, Wang Xuan traveled across the land of Shenzhou. With the disappearance of the Royal Clan, the Great Ming Dynasty did not recover its vitality; instead, more and more rebel armies emerged, presenting the scene of a dynasty in its final days.

He did not intervene in this situation. After the one-year mission ended, the entire world would be reset, and everything would return to how it was before.

When the countdown ended, Wang Xuan left the World's Number One plot world and began to settle his rewards.

At the same time, also within the World's Number One plot world, some ordinary players far from Shenzhou also showed expressions of joy.

To escape the black hands of the Royal Clan, some had fled to Europa, while others were in Tianzhu.

To avoid exposing their identities as players, they did not hesitate to blend into the most populous lower classes.

If you like this book, please remember to add it to your bookshelf so you don't lose it next time.

The player in Tianzhu, to avoid being caught, had even become an untouchable. Every day, aside from cultivation, he engaged in the most menial labor. Even when faced with beatings and humiliation, he could only grit his teeth and silently endure it all.

Now that the time had come, he did not exit the plot world immediately. Instead, he pulled out a small notebook, which clearly recorded the humiliations he had suffered over the past year.

"Kapoor (Shudra) beat me seventy-eight times!"

"Patel (Vaishya) urinated on me six times!"

"Amir (outcaste), attempted to stalk and assault me, three times..."

The notebook was densely packed with text. He flipped through dozens of pages, his brows furrowed tightly.

He recalled those malicious, disgusting gazes that followed him every time. The killing intent in his eyes was almost overflowing; if he hadn't had a few tricks up his sleeve, his virtue would have been compromised long ago.

"Forget it, they all deserve to die!"

He shoved the notebook into his chest, moved his body, and headed toward the city.

[Main Mission: Survive for one year. (Completed)]

[Return? If you do not return, you may choose to stay in this plot world for one month, after which you will be forcibly logged out!]

Wang Xuan had long since grown tired of this world. The time it took to "kill the game" had been too short, and he had spent most of his time with nothing to do. Without a second thought, he chose: "Return!"

[Beginning reward settlement!]

[Killed 2,384 Grandmaster players! Rating increased!]

[Killed 29 cheating players! Rating increased!]

[Calculating comprehensive rating...]

[Player Wang Xuan, final evaluation of the World's Number One world: SSS-rank.]

[Comment: Once power is seized, the storm settles; sweeping across the world, he has no equal!]

[Detected that this plot world is located on the second floor of the Heavens Tower, reward roulette activated!]

[Detected SSS-rank evaluation, weighting increasing...]

[Rewards being distributed...]

[Obtained x50 Special Reward Roulette draws.]

A golden disc appeared before Wang Xuan, its surface densely packed with grids.

At a glance, he saw one of the grids inscribed with Energy Absorption Technique and Indestructible Diamond Divine Skill.

Martial arts manuals occupied only a small portion; the majority consisted of items from non-plot worlds. Familiar ones included the Guild Creation Token, Plot Card, and Teleportation Card, along with some card-type items he had never seen before, such as the Plot Retrospection Card and Plot Character Card.

"So, items like the Guild Creation Token are obtained through draws after completing a plot world. No wonder I never saw them within the plot worlds." Wang Xuan felt a bit helpless. He had only experienced two plot worlds, and after completing the main and side quests, he had only received score increases; he had never seen these items, leading him to believe the Royal Clan had other special channels to acquire them.

"Fifty draws. Going all-in is a form of wisdom, and I subscribe to that notion. All-in!"

As his intent shifted, the fifty draw counts were instantly cleared, and the golden roulette began to spin rapidly.

Just as Wang Xuan expected the roulette to stop and the pointer to select a specific grid, he saw light orbs flying out from the disc. Within a few breaths, dozens of light orbs were already floating before him.

In his daze, the fifty draws were completed just like that, and the golden roulette quietly vanished.

"Heh, so those grids were just for show. What a stunt."

Wang Xuan reached out and grabbed a light orb. It felt soft, and with a slight squeeze, the orb shattered and disappeared, leaving behind a brand-new thread-bound book.

[Item: Skill Book]

[Name: Three Blades of the Avici Path]

[Description: A forbidden demonic blade technique created by Guihai Bailian. It is the ultimate killing move of Dominating the World. It uses endless hatred as a catalyst to draw the baleful energy of the Avici Hell into the body. Once the blade is drawn, blood must be shed; every strike is lethal. The deeper one trains, the heavier the inner demons become, eventually descending into an Asura who knows only slaughter.]
