Chapter 171
The speed of transformation of the Six Paths Reincarnation Barrier was faster than Mu Yi had imagined.
The will of Jiuzhou in the main world also seemed to have joined this stage, and consequently the lands of reincarnation began to change.
"Comprehensive Network Important Notice: Six Paths Reincarnation—Hungry Ghost Path has been generated!"
"Comprehensive Network Important Notice: Six Paths Reincarnation—Hell Path has grown!"
"Comprehensive Network Important Notice: Six Paths Reincarnation—Asura Path has grown!"
【Six Paths Reincarnation】
【Exclusive World Limited Unique Skill, Bound to True Spirit】
【Skill Effect: In the bound exclusive world, the skill owner can ignore all abnormal conditions, immune to all restriction states
When the skill owner dies in the exclusive world, they can be reborn with their true spirit in the exclusive world and recover to peak condition
"Yes!"
When Mu Yi opened his eyes, he saw the figures of Kailier and others.
Mu Yi opened it and saw that it was actually the Holy Warrior Kailier from the initial Mordelos.
Six Paths-Hell Path (LV2): Able to generate blazing fire.
Mu Yi controlled a torrent of 1,200 Asura longswords, swinging them wildly.
Can lightly heal allied units, cleanse allied units' negative effects, and healing effect on biological units is doubled.
As Mu Yi was experiencing the changes of his new ability, a new notification suddenly refreshed on his retina:
"You have a new message, please check in the friend messages!"
During war and slaughter, it will absorb killing energy and blood energy for storage; when an Asura falls in battle, the true spirit will return to the Reincarnation Barrier, and the stored energy can be consumed for resurrection.
"Is it because it hasn't been fully built yet?"
Can bestow divine blessing on a designated target group; the blessed will temporarily increase all attributes by 50%, ineffective against beings stronger than weak divinity.
Kailier's message was simple, inviting Mu Yi to help them assault the final boss of the plane secret realm.
However, the change in power brought is still quite significant.
Mu Yi stroked his chin, recalling the Giant Dragon Treasury matter; this kind of secret realm is indeed tempting.
After thinking, Mu Yi sent a message to Kailier, saying he now has time and is willing to help.
"Now transmitting to the Wasteland Forest Secret Realm..."
The skill owner can summon the Six Paths Barrier; the land where the barrier stands becomes a place of reincarnation, and the skill owner can carry beings belonging to the Six Paths for cross-boundary movement.
Without actual soldiers serving as carriers, the Asura soldiers can instead exert greater effect; compared to Asura soldiers surrounding, this torrent of weapons performs better against individuals.
Asura Warrior: Biological level 10, spirit-type creature, possesses Elite Talent 【Iron-blooded Slaughter LV5】, can be upgraded by consuming barrier reserves.
Derived abilities:
Mu Yi, who had long suffered from being unable to recruit followers on a large scale, saw hope of building an army on the War Fortress, so this time he must seize it.
It is a level 15 epic template great boss; Kailier and others are recruiting people everywhere, preparing to join forces to take it down.
Six Paths-Animal Realm: Not yet built.
Six Paths-Hungry Ghost Path (LV1): Possesses the power to suppress evil ghosts.
Mu Yi felt the newly formed barrier, but somehow felt awkward, as if something was missing; in the end he could only attribute it to the Six Paths being incomplete.
"It seems to have a devouring effect on heavenly and earthly essence, and its toughness also appears quite good!"
【Due to the influence of the exclusive world, this skill effect is not yet fully manifested; more effects are still developing……】
"Friend invites you to participate in the plane secret realm assault, agree?"
When a creature that greatly acknowledges you dies, its soul will be received by the Six Paths Reincarnation, and your number of Asura warriors will increase.
The burning remnants will be absorbed by the Hell Path, becoming power reserves of the Six Paths Barrier.
Possesses sealing ability; creatures dragged into the Hungry Ghost Path will have their souls forcibly suppressed, sealing power based on the Six Paths Barrier's power reserves.
Can inflict massive extra damage on sinful biological units.
Whether it is the Three Good Paths or the so-called Three Evil Paths, each lacks one.
Mu Yi waved his longsword a few times, then snapped his fingers; behind him, thousands of identical Asura longswords began to condense.
Can lightly damage hostile biological units, burn enemy targets' vitality and energy, dispel enemy buffs, and damage effect on spirit-type units is doubled.
Six Paths-Human Path: Not yet built.
Six Paths-Asura Path (LV1): Possesses 1,200 Asura warriors.
【Exclusive World Limited Unique Skill】
【Six Paths Reincarnation】
Mu Yi extended his hand, and a Asura longsword entwined with hungry ghost and blazing fire appeared in his hand, the sword also possessing divine power.
"Mm…… I could even cosplay as a sword immortal!"
However, weapons like this must be placed in a soldier's hands to unleash two hundred percent power; that War Fortress he absolutely cannot miss.
Six Paths-Heavenly Human Path (LV1): Possesses weak divine power.
New skill obtained!
"Long time no see!" Mu Yi greeted these people.
"Ailyer, aren't you looking forward to meeting Mu Yi? Why are you hiding again!" Kle helplessly pulled out the trembling cat-person hiding behind him.
"Mu Boss has become even more terrifying!"
The fur on Ailyer's tail stood up strand by strand; she hates her high perception and talent, which makes her always able to discover things others cannot.
"How is it now!" Mu Yi saw Ailyer shrinking back, released the Human Path, and concealed the aura of the Six Paths Reincarnation.
"Huff~ Mu Boss, you really are getting scarier!"
Ailyer exhaled; although she still faintly sensed danger from Mu Yi, at least she could now speak properly with him.
"Heh heh heh, I think you're getting more cowardly!" female mage Ke Lai teased.
"Huh, Duolun Duo, you even invited him?" Mu Yi suddenly saw another familiar figure, greeted him, and turned his head to ask.
"This time the secret‑realm boss is very powerful; we exhausted all our strength against the previous boss, so we have to recruit more people to help!" the bard Abo Di Ya said softly.
"Although we've made some preparations, we're still not very confident, so we can only ask everyone to come help; after all, we're only one step away, and stopping here would be too regrettable!"
Mu Yi glanced at the final Plane boss information.
Secret‑realm boss: Mei Dusha‑Yu Li Ya Ge
Challenge level: 15
Kai Li Er's popularity was good; one after another, several figures appeared, totaling just fifteen people.
"The others can't make it, probably only us; this is the pre‑prepared anti‑poison concoction, please time its use yourselves."
Kai Li Er handed bottles of alchemical elixirs to the group, then female mage Ke Lai produced a spell scroll and began chanting to everyone.
——Abnormal status resistance!
These were all prepared in advance for the Medusa raid.
There are many varieties of Medusa, but essentially all Medusas are famous for poison and petrification magic.
Everyone was already a veteran Zongwang Player, so no extra commands were needed; under Kai Li Er's guidance they headed toward Medusa's lair.
They were now at the foot of a mountain, which still rose quite high.
Below lay dense forest, giving an overall rugged and primitive feel.
In the thick woods, one could hear certain things scraping the ground.
"Careful, we seem to have been spotted!" Duolun Duo's form slipped into the void, feeling a sense of being watched.
Mu Yi had the same feeling, as if someone was peering at them.
"I'll scout first!"
——Spirit of the Night Owl
A ranger‑styled Zongwang Player raised a hand and fired an emerald‑green arrow, which turned into a tiny emerald bird in midair and dove straight into the void.
Shortly after, the ranger let out a muffled hum, seeming mentally wounded, clutching his head and speaking with difficulty.
"Medusa seems to have spotted us; many secret‑realm guards are charging toward us."
Mu Yi and the others looked up and saw several giant pythons rushing toward them.
"Warrior class, one each; other classes provide ranged support!"
Holy Warrior Kai Li Er drew his holy sword, unfolded a protective aura, and prepared to charge at a giant python.
"Leave it to me, I happen to need those guys!" Mu Yi reached out and stopped the others.
Kai Li Er halted, nodded, and waved to the others, indicating they should hand them over to Mu Yi.
Seeing someone take out the small monsters, they relaxed, since the secret‑realm guards yielded no loot; only contributions to the boss fight could affect the final chest quality.
As the giant python approached, a strong foul odor assaulted Mu Yi's nose.
——Hungry Ghost Path!
As Mu Yi erected a barrier, countless evil spirits suppressed in the Hungry Ghost Path surged out of the ghost gate, turning into myriad skulls that surrounded several giant pythons.
The reason it's called Hungry Ghost Path rather than Evil Ghost Path lies in this.
The suppressed evil spirits are like chained vicious dogs; the barrier gradually saps their will and strength, feeling like a starving belly.
Until the end, their consciousness is erased, leaving only the Instinct of hunger to dominate; driven by that hunger, they instinctively devour all life and energy.
Some semi‑intelligent giant pythons were gnawed by the myriad ghosts, emitting mournful cries before dissolving into a flash of light.
If this were the real world, Mu Yi would still want to try building an Animal Realm, but unfortunately such secret‑realm creatures vanish into light upon death.
Otherwise, in that Giant Dragon Treasury secret realm, he might have been able to obtain the red dragon's corpse directly.
Even an unripe dragon is covered entirely in treasures.
A much larger giant python burst from the hungry ghosts' encirclement, charging at Mu Yi; this python was clearly an elite monster, with irregular bulges on its forehead.
In Zongwang terms, it means the python's accumulated energy has reached a certain level, about to enter an advanced form—the so‑called Dragon Transformation among the Jiuzhou, though still far from that realm.
"Sss!"
When the giant python reached Mu Yi, it suddenly halted, coiled into a ball, and stared at Mu Yi with serpentine eyes.
Mu Yi snapped his fingers, and the Celestial Asura Sword wreathed in ember fire shot out, instantly launching the python.
"Puff!"
The longsword, infused with the powers of Heaven, Hell, and Asura, pierced straight into the python's body; its smooth, tight scales could not block the blow.
Mu Yi's eyes flashed with slight surprise; he had aimed at the python's seven‑inch spot, but the foe managed to dodge the vital point in an instant.
However, you can dodge a vital point with one sword; what about a hundred swords?
The longsword burst out like raindrops, like ten thousand swords piercing the heart, turning the giant python into a porcupine.
The corpse, which should have retained a bit of vitality, vanished into light at this moment.
"Sss!" The onlookers all inhaled a gasp of cold air.
"Hey hey hey, Kai Li Er, where did you find this pervert? This guy can already solo the secret‑realm boss, right?"
Players within Zongwang, having accumulated enough, mostly possess elite‑template levels matching their own, so the challenge level of enemies they face is generally equal to their own creature level.
Yet a level‑15 elite monster still requires effort to defeat, whereas Mu Yi dispatched it with a single glance, casually killing it; this skill is definitely top‑tier among similarly leveled Zongwang Players.
"I always knew Boss Mu would be formidable, but I didn't expect him to become this powerful!" Ai Li Er stared blankly at Mu Yi.
Kai Li Er and the others were also a bit stunned; back then the gap between them wasn't large—they could keep pace with Mu Yi or see his silhouette—but now it felt as unreachable as gazing at the heavens from the mountain foot.
"Cheer up, let's go find Medusa!"
After all, Kai Li Er is a Holy Warrior; after a brief shock he steadied his emotions and called out to the others.
The group snapped out of their reverie, then continued onward; though Mu Yi's gaze was complex, it evoked no awe.
After all, speaking of breaking heaven, Mu Yi hasn't yet reached Legend; perhaps in the future they could still catch up?
However, after Mu Yi took the lead and slew all the giant pythons along the way, they fell silent; catching up to such a freak is simply a fantasy.
If Mu Yi had only burst out once, it would be fine, but he released several bursts in a row, his face not flushed, his breath not ragged, as if he weren't expending any energy at all.
This performance made everyone realize just how great the gap between them really was.
Perhaps Mu Yi hasn't even exerted his full strength; at least they don't think that someone as relaxed as Mu Yi would lack desperate measures.
"Can we really catch up to that freak's back in the future?"
Kaili'er and the others had already known about Mu Yi's deeds beforehand; after all, they had later heard of Mu Yi's legendary exploits.
However, those Zongwang Players who saw Mu Yi for the first time were so struck that some even had their Dao hearts shattered.
