Chapter 658

~7 min read 1,296 words

Under the dark purple sky, Jie Ming's figure glided silently above the cloud layer.

The Grand Void Step compressed his existence to below the limit of perception, even the wind bypassed his body.

His gaze did not land on the wilderness that was quickly passing by below, but on the fate landscape composed of countless light points in the depths of his consciousness.

The Fate System lit up a very faint golden halo between his eyebrows, helping him quickly process the incoming data.

His consciousness tracked forward along those threads extending from fate, constantly selecting suitable fate lines.

In the end, Jie Ming chose a direction that was more consistent with his own fate line.

From the position, the final target was a medium-sized city in a remote area of the plane.

Jie Ming adjusted his direction and gradually accelerated.

Under the premise of suppressing his speed, Jie Ming flew for a full half month before finally approaching the direction of the target.

The first thing that entered perception was the energy field ahead.

The fluctuations emitted by that bizarre entity were completely different from previous bizarre entities; the energy of the entire bizarre entity covered the range of the entire city, and the energy density was uniform to an abnormal degree.

He lowered his altitude, pierced out from below the cloud layer, and the Eye of Omnipotence lit up with light in the depths of his pupils.

Soon Jie Ming saw that city.

From the appearance, it was no different from any medium-sized city in this plane.

Streets crisscrossed, buildings were scattered, there were factory chimneys in the suburbs, and church spires in the city center.

It was dusk at this moment, the street lamps in the city were lighting up one by one, the traffic was moving slowly on the main road, and the taillights dragged out trails of red light in the twilight.

Near the suburbs, there was a low residential area, and one could see smoke rising from the chimneys, drifting in the gray sky.

Everything looked normal.

But the Eye of Omnipotence told Jie Ming that there was not a single living person in this city.

And it was not just that there were no living people, it could be completely said that there was no life at all, not even microorganisms.

The entire city was like a painting, the painter used the finest brushstrokes to depict every street and every street lamp, but forgot to put anything that could breathe in the painting.

And those traffic lights and smoke were projections.

Projections have mass, have energy, and even have real physical texture, but they indeed do not exist in reality.

City of Emptiness.

This word appeared in Jie Ming's mind.

He hovered above the edge of the city, and the Eye of Omnipotence peeled off the energy structure of the entire city layer by layer, presenting it in his consciousness.

The energy level of this city was ridiculously high, several orders of magnitude higher than all the bizarre entities he had encountered before combined.

And the crushing in numerical value was just the most insignificant difference between it and other bizarre entities, and the essence of both sides was even more different.

If danger-level bizarre entities are like torches, hazard-level are like campfires, and disaster-level are like forest fires.

Then this city—is like the sun.

So—it is Destruction-level!

Jie Ming's pupils contracted slightly, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited in his heart.

Calming his mood, Jie Ming's gaze shifted from the city to several directions on the edge of the city.

There were people there, and it seemed there were also wizards who chose to come here.

Sensing the energy fluctuations slightly, four seventh-tier Great Wizards, more than a dozen sixth-tier wizards.

They hovered in different positions on the outskirts of the city, maintaining a subtle distance from each other, everyone's gaze falling on that city, their expressions different.

Jie Ming recognized several faces among them; he had seen their data projections in the information sharing area of the Magic Net terminal.

Like the old man with white hair and white beard wearing a dark red robe on the far left, he is the seventh-tier Great Wizard "Red Flame," specializing in fire-type laws, famous for at least eight thousand years.

The blurry figure shrouded in black fog on the far right is the seventh-tier Great Wizard "Shadow Evil."

The young-looking female in the middle is the seventh-tier Great Wizard "Frost Language," a top controller of ice-type laws, famous for tens of thousands of years.

The other sixth-tier wizards were scattered in more distant positions to show respect to these seventh-tier wizards.

Seeing this scene, Jie Ming naturally didn't rush to approach, but landed at the outermost position of the crowd.

The Grand Void Step maintained the lowest limit of operation, making him look like a piece of air that was not very clear.

Making him neither look like he was deliberately hiding himself, nor too conspicuous.

His gaze was cast toward the gathering point of those few seventh-tier Great Wizards.

Although there was no sound between them, Jie Ming could feel the spiritual senses of those high-tier wizards colliding, clearly using spiritual sense to transmit information and probe and negotiate with each other.

The speed of communication between high-tier wizards was extremely fast, the information density was extremely high, and they completed several rounds of complete negotiations in less than a few seconds.

Then, Red Flame, as the representative, explained the results of the negotiation to all the wizards present.

The voice was not loud, but every word was clearly transmitted into the ears of every wizard present.

"The essence of this city, everyone should see clearly. Destruction-level, city-type bizarre entity, the main body is the administrative area of this city itself. Its strength far exceeds any bizarre entity we have encountered before, and it has a defect that cannot be moved: its influence range can only cover its own city boundaries and cannot expand outward."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over everyone present.

"However, there are still a large number of secondary bizarre entities inhabiting this city. The energy fluctuations of those bizarre entities are fused with this city; if they are not cleaned up first, any attempt to seal this city will fail. Our consensus is very simple, first contain these secondary bizarre entities, each according to their own ability. As for the city itself, wait until the outskirts are cleaned up, then compete according to their own strength."

No one raised an objection.

At the same time the voice fell, the bodies of the wizards moved in the same instant, turning into streams of light, flying toward different areas of the city.

The golden halo between Jie Ming's eyebrows turned from very faint to bright, the Fate System was fully activated, assisting him in processing fate-related knowledge.

In the depths of consciousness, countless fate lines extended from different areas of this city, some thick, some thin, some bright, some dim.

Most of the lines pointed to a certain direction on the outskirts of the city, which were also the areas other wizards were heading to.

He chose a fate line pointing to the east district of the city.

That line was not the thickest, but it had a unique "texture."

As if something had formed a vortex at the end of the fate line, sucking the surrounding lines into it.

Jie Ming's figure glided silently into the low altitude of the city's east district under the cover of twilight.

Three people were also in the same direction as him.

Judging from their action goals, these people should also be the type proficient in fate-related knowledge, so everyone chose the most special orientation without hesitation.
