In the border region of the Divine Eye civilization's main planet, where some people had suspected that the meteorite had crashed, the area was now desolate. Apart from the huge crater, there was nothing else.
The vegetation that had once been there had withered, and the deathly aura that occasionally emanated from the area had deterred ferocious beasts from approaching. The uniqueness of the area had attracted the attention of many cultivators. However, no matter how hard the cultivators tried to investigate, many of them even probed deep into the ground, they couldn't find anything.
It was as if the coffin was clearly there, yet no one was able to see it. In the end, everyone began to guess that it was caused by the strangeness of the meteorite. As time passed, no one paid much attention to this place.
But now … the moment Wang Baole's avatar appeared in front of the pig mask in the inn in the marketplace, the voice that came from the mask reverberated in the mind of Wang Baole's main body, who was deep in the underground coffin, despite the vast distance between them!
The voice was so clear that it sounded as if it had been spoken right beside his ear. Wang Baole's main body instantly opened his eyes, and a look of shock appeared in his eyes. Indeed … the fact that the voice could see through the coffin meant that the Inferno Laozu … was probably at the same level as his senior brother!
The half-mask that Little Missy had hidden in the chest of Wang Baole's main body was also shaken. The half-mask also trembled, as if Little Missy was about to be awakened by the voice.
Wang Baole's main body couldn't help but fall into deep thought. After a long while, he closed his eyes again. At the same time, Wang Baole's avatar, who was far away in the marketplace inn, still had a look of shock in his eyes. After sensing his main body's condition, Wang Baole took a deep breath and bowed deeply to the pig mask in front of him.
Then, Wang Baole stood up and raised both his hands. After slowly catching the pig mask, he fell silent for a moment. A look of hesitation flashed across his eyes, but in the end, he chose to put it on his face.
Almost as soon as he put on the mask, a powerful aura spread out from the mask. It didn't probe Wang Baole's body, but directly enveloped him and pulled him.
Wang Baole felt as if his body and everything else was completely out of control due to this tug. His figure also disappeared from the room of the inn in an instant.
There was no sound, no ripples of teleportation, and no one noticed. Even though the tavern that could be opened in the market had an extremely powerful Array Formation, there was still no obstruction. It was as if … it had disappeared into thin air!
In the next instant, when Wang Baole's vision returned to normal, he was already in … an unfamiliar world!!
Perhaps the word 'world' wasn't the right word to describe it, because this was a world filled with ruins. It was vast, boundless, and incomparably ancient. Everything around him emanated a strong sense of time.
The heavens were the cosmos, and the earth was the void. The place where Wang Baole was standing was a broken piece of a hook-shaped building. There were many similar broken pieces in the surroundings. At the same time, one figure after another transmogrified. Every figure was wearing a mask of a different appearance after they appeared.
There was a cow's head, a fish's face, a horse's face, and many others. There were even more than two hundred figures, all of which were beasts that Wang Baole had never seen before. As soon as they appeared, they looked around, examining everyone else.
Wang Baole's heart trembled. After sweeping his gaze over everyone, he realized that he couldn't sense anyone's aura, nor could he sense their Cultivation bases. He could clearly see them with his eyes, but to his Divine Sense, they didn't seem to exist, but rather, blurry.
"It's because of the masks!" Wang Baole reached up to touch the mask on his face thoughtfully. At the same time, he was also able to make some simple judgments about the people around him.
For example … the eyes of most of the figures were filled with arrogance, ferocity, and ill will. It was as if they had killed many people. Clearly, the people who had chosen to participate in this mission were not ordinary people. All of them had good reasons for coming. After all … if the mission reward from Inferno Laozu had been able to move Wang Baole's heart, then it was only natural that the others would go crazy over it as well.
Even as everyone was sizing each other up, all of a sudden, light began to shine out from the ruins in the area. The light was very weak, and if it had appeared on its own, it would have been easy to miss. But now, it was as if the light had transformed into a starry sky. In fact, it actually did look like starlight. As soon as it appeared, it began to converge in front of everyone.
In the beginning, because the light was weak, even if it was like a sea of stars, the light gathered together to form a light source was not bright. But soon, when all the starlight gathered together, the light gathered together to form a ball of light that was dazzling to the eyes. The aura that was spreading out from it became stronger and stronger, and it was so strong that it gradually shook the world and shook the world.
Everyone present, including Wang Baole, was shaken to the core. It was as if they couldn't look directly at a deity. Everyone bowed their heads, and despite how arrogant they were, they instinctively put their minds to it.
Wang Baole was naturally the same. As he lowered his head, he was also weighing the strength of this aura and that of his senior brother, Chen Qing. In the end, he vaguely felt that his senior brother was slightly stronger, but not by much.
"If there really is an aura that can surpass or even crush it … it can only be the Dao Scripture." Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. As he lowered his head and pondered, he increasingly felt that his cultivation was so weak compared to the entire starry sky. Calling himself an ant was already putting himself on a high pedestal.
"Damn it. Now that I think about it, I feel so weak." Wang Baole felt a little uncomfortable. Just as he was thinking of a way to put it in a way that would make him feel better, a cold and old voice slowly sounded from the dazzling light in front of everyone.
"First, the duration of the mission will start when you enter that planet. It will last for twenty-four hours. After the twenty-four hours are up, I will teleport those who are still alive back.
"Second, the mission method is to kill Never-Ending Clan members. Based on the number of Never-Ending Clan members you kill and their cultivation, you will receive a corresponding amount of red crystals when you return. Also … there is no upper limit to my reward!
"Third, the function of the mask is to hide your identity. At the same time, it is also a locator Dharma artifact that I will use to teleport you back. Also … each of your masks contains a small spell of mine. This spell is similar to a curse. It can make cultivators below the great perfection of the Stellar Realm enter a weakened state and cause their cultivation to drop by a small realm!
"The more serious the injury of the target, the greater the effect of the curse on their cultivation level. However, it can only be used once, and it only lasts for half an hour!
"Last reminder, do not lose your masks. Once you lose them, you will bear the consequences." After the ancient voice in the light finished speaking, he didn't pay any more attention to the group. He didn't give them any time to react. With a sudden tremor, the light spread out and filled the entire world. Everyone, including Wang Baole, trembled violently. The masks on their faces shone and were pulled back invisibly.
In an instant, everyone … disappeared again!
Mission activated!
This time, Wang Baole felt that time was obviously slower than before. He didn't know how much time had passed. It was as if he was in an ethereal state during the entire process. It wasn't until his body trembled that his consciousness seemed to awaken from a deep sleep. When he opened his eyes, what entered his eyes was … a vast expanse of red sky and white earth!
The sky was blood-red because the sun here was red!
The desert around them was white. It was as if it didn't absorb the light from the sky and continued to emit its own color. Therefore, it was particularly eye-catching. At the same time, whether it was the wind or the plants that could be seen in all directions, everything was different from what Wang Baole remembered!
The wind was no longer invisible. Instead, it was possible to see a blurry mist blowing across the desert. The plants were also pitch black, as if they were relying on their color to resist the red sun.
As soon as Wang Baole saw his surroundings clearly, he suddenly began to back up, putting some distance between himself and the others. More than eighty percent of the people there had the same reaction. All of them began to back up, putting some distance between themselves and the others. Their eyes shone with intense vigilance and hostility. They were like vipers baring their fangs, letting everyone know that they shouldn't provoke them.
However, there were still some people who didn't back up. Clearly, they were extremely confident. That was especially true of one of them, a burly man in a green robe. He looked around with scorn.
"Bunch of trash," he said. "Remember, don't follow me. Even if we run into each other here, don't try to fight me over the target I set my eyes on. If you do … I don't mind killing a few more of you!"
