Chapter 2675

Ta Balde pressed one hand on the hole in his chest and shook his head at Su Xiao, signaling that he was fine, or at least wouldn't die.

Su Xiao stood at the edge of the giant crater, looking at the Old God a kilometer away. He had seen everything that happened just now. He roughly judged that Douglas's attack was ineffective, nine times out of ten, because of the World Core. Without first solving that barrier, it was impossible to fight the Old God.

Just by sensing from afar, Su Xiao could judge that this was the strongest Old God he had encountered so far. It was hard to judge the other party's combat power.

But one thing was certain: the other party was definitely not a Seventh-Tier Old God. Its combat power had likely broken through the constraints of this world. So far, Su Xiao had never encountered a weak Old God, with the exception of a certain half-breed.

Even more troublesome was the World Core inside the other party. With this thing inside, the other party was an invincible existence within the Dark Prison.

【Prompt: The Dark Prison has stopped merging with the original world.】

【Prompt: The World Core has stopped merging with the original world.】

【Main Mission: Secret Object (Completed).】

【You have obtained the Exemption Badge (After equipping this badge, you can be exempted from the debuff effects brought about by having Charm, Willpower, and Luck attributes below 0 points).】

【Because the World Core has detached from the original world, you have obtained an additional reward.】

【You have obtained Golden Skill Points x2.】

【You have obtained Soul Box (After opening, you can obtain 1–130 Soul Crystals · Complete).】

Several prompts appeared in succession. Su Xiao looked at the Old God in the distance. He had plenty of experience fighting Old Gods, but in a situation where he couldn't break that invisible barrier, he couldn't fight at all, not to mention that this Old God was extremely powerful itself.

"Boss, I'll lure it, you guys retreat first. That Old God's energy has no spatial characteristics."

After Baha left these words, it flew toward the sky.

"Grandson, I've seen the Moon God's portrait. Although you are much more majestic, you and the Moon God are of the same breed, right? Otherwise, you're a mongrel, ga-ga-ga."

Baha's loud shout immediately attracted the Old God's attention, or rather, what truly attracted the Old God was the word "Moon God".

"You still want to control this world? In my opinion, you're just farting under the covers, wanting to hog it all for yourself."

While Baha shouted trash talk, it was already prepared to shuttle into the different space to hide at any time. It didn't want to engage this Old God head-on.

With a boom, a pitch-black energy beam blasted toward Baha. Spanning a distance of over a thousand meters, it reached Baha in an instant.

Spatial ripples appeared, and Baha hid in the different space.

"What's the matter, do you really know the Moon God? The Moon God died miserably. It's said that there was high temperature in the skull, and with a 'dang', the skull exploded into the sky, spiraling into the heavens."

While Baha shouted, it was rapidly increasing the distance. It had discovered one thing: the Old God couldn't move freely yet.

"Don't think about escaping."

Soul saw Su Xiao and the others retreating into the distance and immediately rushed out of the invisible barrier, preparing to pursue. Its speed was extremely fast, and it rushed out nearly a kilometer in an instant.

Just at this moment, Su Xiao, who was running ahead, stopped his steps and pressed one hand onto the hilt of the sword at his waist.

Almost simultaneously, Soul slammed on the brakes and stopped. The God it worshipped was still sitting on the divine throne in the distance, clearly having no intention of pursuing the enemy.

This Old God seemed cruel and indifferent, but it was very clear about the current situation. Once it left the Dark Prison, the World Core's barrier would disappear.

"You can't escape."

Leaving behind this harsh threat, Soul retreated. To Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, this threat was similar to "Wait until school is out."

Su Xiao traveled at high speed and soon reached the initial point he had marked earlier. The Dark Prison rift hadn't dissipated yet.

After waiting for less than a minute, Baha returned. It rushed out from the different space and fell to the ground.

There was a hole in Baha's wing, and its head must have suffered a heavy blow, as fine cracks appeared on its beak. Clearly, the Old God had found the correct way to deal with Baha—hitting the mouth was the most effective way to deal with Baha; otherwise, even if one won, it would feel like a loss.

Su Xiao picked up Baha and leaped toward the Dark Prison rift in mid-air. The next moment, he disappeared, and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang followed closely behind.

Ta Balde made a move to leap, but as soon as he bent his knees, a sharp pain erupted from within his chest, and a mouthful of blood was spat out from his mouth, flowing out through the air vents of his 'Pumpkin Helmet'.

"You guys go first, I'll recover in a few seconds."

Ta Balde supported his knees with his hands. He had suffered such severe injuries because he didn't understand the enemy's abilities, and the other party was simply ridiculously powerful.

A shrill whistling sound came, and hundreds of black rays approached, crisscrossing as they attacked Ta Balde and Amu.

Amu stood in front of Balde, just about to construct an ice shield, when a sense of restraint came from its horns.

Sizzle—

The World-Severing Line retracted, pulling Amu and Balde away and disappearing into the Dark Prison rift.

One black ray after another landed, the earth roaring. When everything subsided, the ground for several kilometers around was riddled with holes.

Inside the residential house, Su Xiao stomped his foot, and the formation on the ground collapsed. His purpose for entering the Dark Prison this time had been achieved, but the process was somewhat different from what he had expected. Originally, he thought Soul was going to summon an existence like an 'Ancient Dark Demon', but he didn't expect the other party to be an Old God believer who had resurrected an Old God.

【Prompt: The Hunter has completed the main mission. Remaining stay time: 12 days, 15 hours.】

【Yes/No to return to Reincarnation Paradise.】

Su Xiao immediately refused. If he returned to Reincarnation Paradise now, he would at most obtain the gains of half a world. So far, he had only obtained one 【Saint Spirit-level Treasure Chest】, and other gains were all exchanged from the World Reputation Store.

【Prompt: If the Hunter chooses to continue staying in this world, a new main mission will be triggered.】

【Prompt: This world no longer has transcendent characteristics.】

【Prompt: Because there are many contractors staying in this world, and this world no longer has transcendent characteristics, the World Core is in a fully open state. Initial Regulation 195476 has been met, and the Void Tree is about to notarize this world.】

【Announcement (Void Tree): This world is about to enter the notarization stage. After 15 hours, contractors in this world will be able to obtain World Source in this world.】

【Announcement (Void Tree): The factions of this world have been categorized. Contractors can choose to join any faction (Watcher Guild, Dark Demon/Specter faction, God faction). Contractors must deal with the risks generated when joining a faction themselves.】

【Announcement (Void Tree): The contact platform for this world has been activated. All contractors can speak freely on the contact platform (for speaking regulations, you need to open the branch list to view).】

【Prompt (Void Tree): Detected that the Hunter has obtained a large amount of World Reputation. This is the Hunter's personal gain. Balance mechanism is under judgment...】

【Prompt (Void Tree): Because the Hunter's actions led to the removal of this world's transcendent characteristics, although the Hunter cannot obtain World Source in this world, at 6:00 AM the next day, the World Reputation Store will reset. This is a compensation mechanism.】

【Prompt (Void Tree): The Hunter can speak freely on the world contact platform. Because the Hunter is currently in the Overlord-level template, before speaking, you need to draft an identity (Affiliated Paradise cannot be selected; it has been locked to Reincarnation Paradise).】

【Warning (Void Tree): Detected that Hunter No. 13013 has caused huge destruction to the Trial World and has the ability to summon Demon Zerg. The contractor has been marked as a 'World-Class Dangerous Unit'.】

【World-Class Dangerous Unit: Has the ability to cause a Seventh-Tier world to collapse completely, and has a high probability of implementing this behavior!】
