"I still left so Immortal Brew in the Mountain and Sea Painting Realm, consider it a little gift for you all."
"The Taixu Illusion Realm has a new scenario; rember to check it out..."
Without any more words, after saying farewell, dozens of Immortals led by Shen Jizi once again exuded a brilliant Immortal light. They took one last look at this land where they were born and raised, and then resolutely transford into streams of different colored lights, like teors moving backward, decisively heading into the vast Void, disappearing without a trace in an instant.
The sky returned to its dim state once more, leaving only four Immortals behind, and beneath them, a silent ruin.
Looking at the Demonized Jianmu, which had completely collapsed into ruins, and the rich aura of death slowly dispersing around it, Xiao Jie exhaled a long breath of relief.
It must be said that being able to successfully destroy the root of the calamity this ti ca with a bit of luck. If Shen Jizi and the others hadn’t arrived at the last mont to help, relying solely on the four of them to face the Jianmu—capable of crazily absorbing Spiritual Energy with extraordinary defense and recovery capabilities—they would likely have been completely overwheld, only able to watch helplessly as the core of Canglin State turned into a wasteland.
He instinctively looked up at the sky, and a trace of doubt arose within him as he pondered, "System, oh system, Heavenly Dao, oh Heavenly Dao, is all of this within your calculation and control? Were the arrival of Shen Jizi and the others a necessary part of the plot, or were they triggered by so hidden favorability or conditions?"
Once this question arose, it was hard to suppress.
He further speculated, "If... if the Immortals of Gu Yun State really steeled their hearts and didn’t co to support us at all, would this ga really head towards a BAD END, turning into a hopeless post-apocalyptic survival ga where all players could only struggle to survive on the barren land until ultimate annihilation? This doesn’t seem to align with the design logic of mainstream online gas."
In theory, the core narrative of a typical role-playing ga, especially a massive multiplayer online ga, should be about the hero, played by the players, overcoming challenges, uniting all forces available, and successfully saving the world, defeating the final Boss in a kingly plot.
However, given the current level of power exhibited in "Old Soil" and the despairing strength gap between ordinary players and these world-ending disasters, it feels like this level of crisis is not sothing current players can withstand with their own strength.
Unless... they can systematically and massively cultivate Immortal-level player combat power, otherwise, the next ti such a plot unfolds, it will really be ga over.
Thinking of this, Xiao Jie couldn’t help but shake his head, but the problem is, the Ascension to Immortality chanism in this ga is, ironically, so demanding, unique, and hard to replicate. Gu Feiyu’s analysis still rings in his ears. It just leaves people speechless, haven’t the designers considered the issue of balance in combat strength?
Xiao Jie withdrew his gaze from the sky, looking at the devastated land beneath his feet, his mood gloomy once again. If another crisis of the sa level, or even stronger, falls upon them, and only the four of them remain, just thinking about it feels bleak, and they are surely dood.
If worst cos to worst... then I’ll just withdraw myself, right? After all, I have a way out, at worst I can quit the ga and return to reality...
But just as this thought appeared, he imdiately dismissed it. No! Absolutely not!
His pals are still in this world. They’re now almost bound to this world. If Xiao Jie leaves, they can’t go! He must at least think of a way to ensure their safety.
Damn—why didn’t I think of this sooner!
Xiao Jie slapped his forehead; he was too engrossed in sentint and battle before, how could he forget to ask Shen Jizi? Even if they weren’t willing to stay, at least he could request them to take his core teammates along!
Even if it ans taking refuge in that Treasure World first, at least they’d be safe for a few thousand years. It’s better than staying here and facing the Doomsday Tribulation head-on!
Although he isn’t sure whether Shen Jizi would agree to such a "whole family relocation" request, and the resources in the Treasure World created by the other party are probably limited, it’s at least worth trying!
No, I can’t just give up like this! With a bit of luck still in his heart, Xiao Jie decided he must head back to the Mountain and Sea Painting Realm in Gu Yun State imdiately! In case... in case there’s still the last train or sothing, so that the remaining Immortals have a chance to escape at the last mont, it might just be possible.
As he was thinking fast, Lin Xuance’s voice sounded beside him, interrupting his thoughts.
The Dangmo Real Man wore a worried expression, with no hint of having just won a great victory.
"Sui Feng, it seems from now on, the responsibility of guarding the Jiuzhou World falls on us four. Fortunately, the crisis this ti is finally resolved, the root cause is removed, and Canglin State is preserved.
Those secondary roots scattered across the Nine States, although not a major threat, can gradually be cleared by the returnees, but it ultimately requires ti. And the real pressing matter is that we must seriously consider future prospects. If a crisis of this magnitude or even greater occurs again, or if the mastermind behind the external roots directly manifests, instead of rely infiltrating through ’tendrils’... then, with just the four of us, how should we respond?"
