Chapter 597

"Level 10 physique? What kind of monster is this?"

Seto Kaiba widened. This person hadn't used any extra Transcendental Grade power; he had only relied on his incomparably strong physique to wreak havoc, yet the effect was surprisingly good.

No summoned creature could withstand a single blow; a casual step could move him at speeds comparable to teleportation.

Reaching level 10 physique requires an astronomical number of reward points, and very few players specialize in it. However, such specialized players are not difficult to deal with.

"I'll do it." Garou couldn't help but rush out. He was indeed a melee fighter, but he didn't have the all-in physique. He threw a punch from hundreds of meters away.

Torrent Kill!

The shockwave was unstoppable, like Torrent, blasting the charging enemy backward. Seto Kaiba then drew another card, and a huge spatial vortex appeared behind Yuki.

Is space torn apart?

Yuki glanced at it, abruptly stopped, and looked up to see Garou was almost in a berserk state, raise his leg and deliver a flying knee.

Bang!

His knee struck the blade, but the 'qi' seemed to strike through Yuki's chest, exploding his black clothes, and creating a ring of energy on his back. Yet he remained expressionless, raising his hand to block the incoming hand blade, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw Hisoka, dressed as Clown, quietly appear not far away.

Epic Metamorphosis: The Psychic Hunter King.

Multicolored light emerged from Hisoka's body, and the split threads bound Yuki's limbs.

Telekinesis transcends the concepts of physics and energy, possessing extremely high resilience. Before Garou could tear Yuki apart, a black phantom of Garou appeared before him, unleashing its full power.

Ten Thousand Fists Kill!

Bang bang bang bang...

Like a sandbag being pounded, punches, kicks, and elbow strikes came like a storm, the energy raging and creating a large vacuum zone, like an iron hammer constantly striking, blasting Yuki into a spatial vortex.

There was no underestimation of their opponents; three epic-level players teamed up to gang up on them, providing support, suppression, and damage output—everything was in place. Yuki's back had already touched the vortex, causing a noticeable distortion in the visual effect.

Even the strongest body cannot withstand the pull of space, nor can it break through the shackles of psychic power. As if in a wrestling match, Garou stepped into the Yuki and ascended, but the raging wind in front of him suddenly stopped, and Garou clasped his hands together and raised them above his head.

Shatter Kill!

He channeled all his strength into the attack, the resulting explosion forming a blue tiger. Hisoka wasn't idle either, wrapping even more Nen ribbons around his target, but the next moment—

The tiger Piercer the illusory body and the spatial vortex. With a muffled thud, the 'qi' blasted a crater several kilometers in diameter into the earth.

Teleportation? Isn't he a physical damage dealer?

The Garou was taken aback, sensing something was wrong. If he wasn't a player with the "all-in" physique, then why was he going head-to-head with me?

Just then, he heard his teammates scream.

"He's come over here!"

What?

The coordinates of the spatial movement had been intuitively locked onto, right above the Garou's head. But when he suddenly turned around, he saw a thick darkness spreading out in the middle of the formation in the distance, and he immediately understood.

Feint to the east while attacking in the west!?

This person is far more than just someone with the ability to teleport. Everyone misjudged Yuki's battle objective. There was no epic battle at all; the talk of a decisive battle to the death was just a smokescreen. This small misjudgment brought about a disastrous result.

Yuki bypassed Seto Kaiba was doing his best to maintain the vortex, and jumped straight into the crowd. The dozens of monster-level players were preparing skills like Space Blade and Instant Death Ray, which were specifically designed to counter players with high physical constitution, to cover their teammates when suddenly everything went black.

No one could have imagined that the enemy would specifically target the weak, nor could anyone know why Hisoka, who also possessed spatial abilities, didn't return to stop them, because even his thoughts were slowed down under the authority of the Sleeping Voice.

It was just a fleeting moment.

Yuki emerged from the Eternal Night, locking onto the group in the center.

These are all defensive players, protecting the teleportation medium, which is surrounded by a thick defensive barrier.

Without further ado, he raised his shotgun and aimed at the players struggling to break free from their slumber.

Lord of Cinder Soul Blunderbuss. Multi-Shot Mode.

The souls of ten monster-level players were already packed into the gun barrel, ignoring the Limit the item's capacity, and the trigger was pulled.

Bang! Bang!

Within the Eternal Night, the world seemed to be in slow motion. The defensive items were instantly blasted to pieces, and the second projectile tore the player to shreds like a whirlwind.

The teleportation medium for the Forgotten Hidden Jianghu was a wooden plaque, its surface stained crimson with bits of flesh. Yuki reached out and grasped it, his figure flashing as his already dispersed Moonlight Clone provided the next target for slaughter.

At that moment, the echoes of gunfire still reverberated. Just as Garou and the others realized something was wrong, he had already teleported away and arrived behind their formation.

Before the Eternal Night had fallen, several players were guarding the second 'plaque'. Before they could understand what was happening, a person leaped out of the darkness, raised a white spear of light, and threw it directly at them.

The Spear of Divine Punishment.

The protective shield that had been maintained was ripped open, revealing the vampire's head behind it. The corpse stood upright before vanishing into nothingness in the purple halo.

Yuki rushed in through the cave entrance, and the 'Sea God's Tide' spread, making everything seem to be in slow motion.

He saw players either frantically pulling out items or instinctively trying to escape, but all in vain. The halo caught up and swept them into a cloud of black ash.

"Something's not right, he's after the teleportation medium!"

The whole process took only one second. The muffled gunshot that pierced through the Eternal Night reached Hisoka's ears just as the black ash left by the dozen or so players had not yet dissipated.

Fast, too fast.

This isn't about preserving strength at all. Even if he's stronger than expected, Hisoka still has a fighting chance. But for a tiger to eat a pig, it's a matter of a split second.

A small misjudgment can be magnified infinitely in the face of absolute power. He had barely come to his senses when his escape route had already vanished.

"This person is definitely not a local player!"

It was too late for him to realize this. Before he could react, the man in black, who possessed a level 10 physique, grabbed a mountain peak and charged towards him. The mountain peak seemed to have been enhanced by some kind of skill, and even the telekinetic cannon couldn't shatter it.

Fortunately, the Garou suddenly appeared from the side, twisting the path of his charge with a punch. He glanced at the black-clad man who had turned back to attack, and then at the figure shrouded in a halo in the distance.

"Damn it, it's 'Taiyi'!"

He was, after all, subordinate to the Judge, and knew more; and skills like Eternal Night Domain, Light of Divine Punishment, and Death Aura were too distinctive.

Taiyi? No, what merit do I possess?

Hisoka blinked, not understanding what he had done to deserve Taiyi's full-force attack. Judging from the current situation, this was a premeditated script.

'Taiyi' made a special plan, using a feint attack to cut off their retreat. The misjudgment was not fatal; what was fatal was misjudging whom!

"You realized it too late."

Yuki wouldn't explain his plan like a fool. He's the type to do a lot of fancy things before he starts, but when it comes to actually making his move, he's decisive to an extreme.

Fast, extremely fast, so fast it's breathtaking.

The luring, the ambush, and the cutting off of retreat were all accomplished almost simultaneously. There was no probing; the most powerful attack was used right from the start, followed by an instant analysis of the battlefield.

Another Yuki was suppressing the enemy, wielding a long sword and forging a large shield, slashing back and forth.

Garou, Hisoka, and Seto Kaiba had fully recovered. There were no more teleportation mediums within a thousand miles, and they knew about Taiyi's methods, so they all gathered in one place.

Breaking out separately is the most foolish thing to do; you'll only get caught and crushed one by one. Sticking together can at least buy you time. 'Taiyi' has already been exposed, and the Judge won't stand idly by.

"If we hold firm, will there be a way out?"

Yuki looked to the other side and, through the ashes of death, saw a round-faced, chubby man—one of the Judge had been observing from afar.

The major, his face contorted with fanaticism, spouted nonsense like "this is blitzkrieg," while interspace communication was established, transmitting what was happening here back to the outside world.

The moment Yuki unleashed his signature skill, he was already exposed, but he firmly held the initiative. There must be a reason why he was fighting this way.

"The messenger is ready to spread the word that 'Taiyi' is Forgotten Hidden Jianghu."

"Access has been granted; the infiltrated player is about to begin the mission."

Two messages were sent back in quick succession. At the same time, the aura of the Hundred Eyes of True Knowledge was traversing the sky, observing his every move. This was to be expected, as he knew that 'Taiyi' had the ability to create clones and travel at will, and acting on his every move would be exhausting.

That's a quick reaction.

This was clearly a rehearsal beforehand. The major relayed the message and immediately activated the defense, but Yuki didn't care. Without wasting a second, he raised his hand and took out the four-headed, eight-armed sculpture.

"Let me save you some trouble."

[Reincarnation items, Demon God Statue]

Like nuclear radiation, an invisible spiritual force is spreading, and all sorts of illusions are appearing, instantly revealing the myriad aspects of the world.

The remaining hostile players fled in a panic like rabbits; the local players watched with curiosity as if they were frozen in place; Dao Ma's face was contorted with rage, and he immediately dragged his companions away; Garou and his group did everything they could to stick together for warmth.

The major seemed to have forgotten his fear of 'Taiyi' and underwent Epic Metamorphosis, summoning an army out of thin air. The iconic M35 helmets and M36 uniforms exuded the aura of the Third German Empire.

Fear, curiosity, awakening, fanaticism.

The Demon God Statue creates countless mental images, amplifying desires and distorting wills, affecting the entire plane like a mental nuclear bomb. It is invisible and difficult to detect. If it weren't for the item description, even Yuki standing next to it would be completely unaware.

"Didn't expect that, did you? I'm throwing down my trump card right off the bat, giving you no warning whatsoever."

Yuki swallowed a whole bottle of Quiet Dew, a faint smile playing on his lips. For him, there was no such thing as a second stage; if he wanted to, he could just drop a nuclear bomb right away.

With her arms outstretched, lasers and projectiles exploded one after another on the Immortal Crystal. Yuki stood behind the Wall of Sighs and gently raised her head.

Just like during the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, the activation of the reincarnation item immediately triggered a chain reaction.

The incessant night rain ceased, a crack appeared in the sky filled with swirling clouds, a resonance began, and the road to freedom was opening.

The resonance phase begins.

Yuki, like the atomic clock constantly ticking on his left arm, is precise yet indifferent, simultaneously unfolding the foreshadowing he has laid.

The mouthpiece of the Borderlands began spreading news, causing uncertainty among players who were already paying attention to this faction. The Thorny Rose players on Hiyori list received a mission prompt and used seeds to pass the message to the Judge's ears.

The punitive expedition knew nothing, and hadn't even connected it to 'Taiyi', let alone deduce what would happen next. They were still in shock from having their escape route cut off.

The Judge was also somewhat bewildered; 'Forgotten Hidden Jianghu' was never on the watch list and had no interest in faction wars.

A group of unexpected players lured out the dragon, but the dragon skipped the enraged phase and directly unleashed a world-destroying flame.

How abrupt! How absurd!

"Didn't you want clues? This should be enough for you to digest."

Looking at the steel torrent before him, Yuki raised his musket. Only something beyond logic could defeat the so-called 'perfectly calculated' strategy.

Like standing on the shore admiring the still surface of an ancient lake, anticipating the arrival of a wave, only to have it all vanish in the blink of an eye—

Huge waves surged.

Chapter Eleven: Applying Limit Pressure!

A single stone can stir up a thousand waves, but Yuki was doing was that the moment the stone left his hand, the waves had already become enormous.

The Grand Inquisitors had just received the news and hadn't even prepared to analyze the truth before the return process was initiated. The players present hadn't even figured out how 'Taiyi' had appeared when Yuki decisively pulled out a reincarnation item, triggering the legendary resonance.

Why? By what right? Did I skip some important part of the story?

Is this going to be a final battle? Where did the Return Faction player go? Does he intend to fight all the Judge alone?

Too many questions cannot be answered, but one thing is clear--

"This huge dish definitely wasn't prepared for us." Seto Kaiba had that much sense; he was just a little dazed.

Ten minutes ago, he was still thinking about how to crush the rebels and firmly control this Outpost for farming souls and creating cards. Ten minutes later, he actually stepped into the vortex of 'Taiyi' and the Judge' battle.

Even the smartest person couldn't react to this. It's like blindly entering a secret realm for exploration, bumping into the final boss, and before you can even mentally prepare yourself, the boss immediately starts the apocalypse.

The three of them felt a sense of disorientation, as if they had fallen into some kind of absurd plot, and what was even more absurd was that the disorientation itself was also a form of time.

The 'Demon God Statue' Incandescence their determination to hold on even more. They finally reunited, and just as they realized that this seemed to be some kind of spiritual corruption, the man in black pounced on them.

The Night Furnace unfolds; they are no longer Forgotten Hidden Jianghu. Even if the Judge arrives, it's impossible for him to break through space specifically to rescue them.

"They're determined to leave no survivors." Hisoka looked at the Corpse Mountain, Blood Sea. The three of them had just reunited when the other side immediately deployed a domain, stripping away all life forms within a few hundred meters.

He was caught off guard by the rapid-fire multi-tasking; he had just been thinking about how to sacrifice his teammates to hold out until the Judge arrived.

"Perhaps he didn't even consider us a threat, as if killing us was just a matter of course." Garou looked at the figure wielding a sword and shield. Having dealt with him before, he had come to his senses.

They were nothing more than tools to ignite the explosives; the only difference was that this bastard didn't even spare his tools.

"Don't panic, this is a special clone. None of us are qualified to make Him take action personally."

The experiment with the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons exposed Yuki's true nature, and after Garou's reminder, the three relaxed a bit.

A clone is fine; no matter how special it is, it's not a real player, so it's still within our control.

Seto Kaiba immediately pulled out two cards, held them between his fingers, and raised them above his head.
