The magic arrays that were set up in the first experimental area to prevent high-level players from attacking were all activated. Flames burned, and magic runes shook the heavens and the earth. Streaks of supreme power began to protect the first experimental area.
Thanks to these burning magic arrays, those who hadn't made it to the core area in time managed to preserve their lives. Meanwhile, those who hadn't made it into the magic arrays' protective circle exploded one after another, their bodies and souls annihilated, turning into magic particles that dissipated into the air. Even their souls disintegrated in an instant.
No one could stop the giant skeletal hand. A trace of its aura was enough to crush all living things.
The Black King's mutation was obviously caused by devouring too many living things that did not belong to him. At this moment, the giant made of corpses stood between the heavens and the earth. The ground where the right hand swept across burned with inextinguishable black flames. The people inside screamed in pain, unable to escape the burning flames. In the end, they could only die in fear.
The giant skeletal hand smashed a few buildings that were in the way. Then, it rushed across the sky above the experimental area.
This scene was forever engraved in the hearts of the people in the experimental area. Even after a long time, those who survived would never forget it. It was a wound that could not be healed. It was a terrifying psychological shadow.
Dong!
It continued to sweep across and penetrated another tall building. That was a landmark of the princess' residence. However, it was easily destroyed by the giant skeletal hand. Countless sand and stones were sent flying, and many protective magic arrays were destroyed.
The only fortunate thing was that most of the people had evacuated to the core area of the protective magic array. If they could not even protect that area, it would be the same no matter where they hid.
Now, they could only pray that they would not be noticed by the giant skeletal hand. They hoped that the person or thing that the Black King was looking for was not them.
Just a single gigantic hand could easily shatter all defenses and blast those low-grade players into bloody mists. The pressure from the gigantic hand intimidated countless people, making them unable to summon any will to resist.
At this moment, the people in the experimental area experienced true despair. They understood the difference between the supreme existences and themselves. Their war would cost the lives of countless living things. The Black King was like this, and so were the other Level-9 players of the same level.
The War of the Kings was about to begin, and the Black King's rampage was just the beginning. What would happen next would be even more terrifying and despairing.
At this moment, these people finally began to reminisce about the peaceful days of the past, the glorious days of the Seven Great Continents, and the days when the Great Wall of Calamity still existed, when they were protected and didn't have to worry about being wiped out.
The white skeletal hand passed through the first experimental area, crossing the mountains and forests. It invaded from the border all the way to the hinterland. If it went any further, it would be another experimental area!
This shocking scene made everyone gasp in amazement.
Rumble!
It finally found its target and fiercely slammed down. Disaster suddenly arrived. The ground instantly caved in and collapsed. Rubble flew up and lava surged. Many creatures fled in all directions. They screamed and ran helplessly in fear. However, before they could even take a few steps, they were annihilated by the pressure of despair.
Bloody mist filled the air as countless living beings evaporated.
Every time it moved, the earth below would tremble. A supreme aura surged violently, and nothing could survive under this kind of pressure. Many creatures were turned into a bloody mist and absorbed by it, replenishing the energy that the Black King had lost.
Of course, this was just in passing.
Its real target was obviously this area.
This scene was terrifying. It was as if the end of the world had arrived. Many players looked at it with pale faces. They came from the Great Wall of Calamity. It was only because the Shield King took them in that they could continue to live in the Seven Great Continents. They had been working diligently in the experimental area. Now that they saw their hard work being destroyed, they couldn't muster up any resistance.
There was only sorrow, despair, and pain.
"Here …"
A loud voice reverberated in the sky, shaking the mountains and rivers. The ground was shaking, and the sky was trembling.
This was the Black King's voice.
The skeletal giant was enveloped in black light. Its mouth that held the black magic ball moved and actually spoke. It still had some rationality left!
However, this voice was less human than before and more divine.
"The aura of an eternal existence … the taste of the supreme … the sweet power …"
There was a hint of joy in the Black King's voice.
Rumble!
The giant skeletal hand fell and grew bigger again. Five fingers as thick and long as snow mountains pierced into the ground. It grabbed the ground and clenched. It actually lifted the ground!
The mountains and rivers shook. Everything was silent.
It was as if the stars were slowly falling under such a huge force.
Night Shadow and Dong Ling, who were flying in the air, were completely stunned.
The Black King actually grabbed a piece of the Northern Continent and broke it to the ground. Below it was a bottomless abyss.
They knew that the Seven Great Continents were floating broken continental plates. They used to be the complete Blue Planet, and the Sea of Stars was the world outside the Blue Planet. Below the continents was the former inner region of the Blue Planet. It was called the Abyss. No one had ever explored it. The legendary new world seemed to be in the depths of those regions.
Li Xiang called it the Earth's Core.
At this moment, the Black King directly tore the continent apart. He grabbed a small area and walked away. Below it was the Abyss that they had never seen before. They couldn't see the scenery clearly.
That piece of land floated up into the sky and was carried to the dome. Sand, stones, and soil fell down. Some creatures screamed and fell, turning into dust.
The giant skeletal hand quickly retracted, as if it had completed its mission and was ready to retreat.
He had found his target.
In the sky, Night Shadow's eyes glowed with a strange dark purple color. Her eyesight was suddenly raised to the extreme. Finally, she saw a weak and strange aura in that piece of land.
Compared to the entire land, this aura was pitifully small. However, due to its special nature, Night Shadow quickly noticed it.
"Xin Yi! It's Xin Yi! "
Night Shadow trembled. She couldn't be wrong about that small voice.
Ever since Ming Xu gave birth to this daughter, as Li Xiang's godmother and teacher, Night Shadow had never stopped caring about this little grand-disciple. Although they had never met, she knew everything about her like the back of her hand, just like how she paid attention to Li Xiang.
The little girl curled up on the ground, trying her best to stabilize her body. Many floating black magic runes formed a cage around her, trapping her in place and preventing her from moving.
Xin Yi already had the strength of a player, and she also had Li Xiang's origin aura. She also had the bloodline of the giant spider race, so she would be fine. However, she couldn't break free from the cage and could only be captured by the Black King.
"Xin Yi, give Xin Yi back to me!" Night Shadow's eyes instantly turned red. Her long black hair danced in the wind as she flew forward.
Boom!
The Skeletal Giant seemed to have noticed the powerful aura that was closing in on it. Its body slowly twisted, and its black eyes looked down. It activated its Eye Technique, and a black light shot down, landing on Night Shadow's body and pushing her down the snow mountain.
Night Shadow coughed out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying. At the same time, she chanted an incantation. Countless black chains drilled out of the shadows, wanting to break this skeletal hand.
Clang! Clang!
After several strikes, the skeletal hand was almost broken, but it quickly began to heal. The speed at which the bones recovered was shocking.
Dong Ling Love frowned. A black shadow walked out from behind her, howling like a monster. It also ran toward the ground in the skeletal hand.
This was a disaster monster that she had Grazed after fusing. The moment it rose into the air, it grew larger and larger. Its body gradually expanded until it was about the size of the skeletal hand. It bit down on the skeletal hand as if trying to tear it apart.
However, these attacks were all in vain.
Black King coldly snorted, and a powerful pressure pressed down mercilessly. Dong Ling Love and Night Shadow's blood boiled, and they fell from the sky. The black chains broke one after another, and the disaster monster was directly shattered, turning into countless strands of aura that drilled back into Dong Ling Love's body.
Blood flowed out of her seven orifices, and her beautiful face became hideous. This was the first time she felt so powerless.
Night Shadow's eyes were about to pop out, but there was nothing she could do. She tried to get up again and again, but she was fiercely suppressed by a powerful force. All the bones in her body cracked, and her body was pressed into the snow, creating a huge pit dozens of meters deep.
Kaboom!
Countless magic runes rose up. Night Shadow's long hair fluttered, and she floated out of the snow pit. Her eyes were pure black, and she was like a god of war.
She had activated the Nightking bloodline in her body. Unparalleled power was gathering, and at the same time, it was overdrawing her body.
Lori and the others who saw this clearly felt their hearts in their throats.
Honey was especially regretful. She shouldn't have listened to Xin Yi's willfulness and brought her along. Shizuko was even more regretful.
She was Xin Yi's ninjutsu instructor. If she hadn't been allowed to come, Xin Yi wouldn't have been able to be willful.
However, it was all too late.
Black King's attack was obviously aimed at Xin Yi. This attack was unstoppable. Only the two Level-8 in the sky had a chance to save Xin Yi.
Dong Ling Love landed on the ground. Her kimono slipped off layer by layer, revealing her white and alluring body. Her body was covered with all kinds of curse marks, and each mark contained a terrifying disaster.
She had imitated the authority of the Mother Goddess to create this set of necromancy magic. She had used her body to restrain the disasters and obtain their power. Now that she had released all of them, it was completely beyond her capacity.
However, if she could save Xin Yi, it would all be worth it!
Night Shadow floated into the air, no longer restricted by the pressure. A pure black sword of light condensed in her hand. The blade was clear, and it was exactly the same as the Nightking's.
A black light shot into the sky, heading straight for Black King's vertical pupils!
This sword pierced through the sky, as if it could even cut through time and space. It was a rare ultimate move. At the same time, the disaster aura that erupted from Dong Ling Love's body suppressed the Black King's domain, allowing Night Shadow's sword to pierce through his body without any restrictions.
This was their first time working together, but it was flawless. When the two of them worked together, even the Five Kings would have to avoid them. This was an ultimate move that was close to self-destruction. After this move, the two of them would need a long time to recover.
Whether or not they could save Xin Yi depended on this.
"Break!"
Night Shadow's voice echoed in the sky.
The black sword radiance tore through the sky, shattered mountains and rivers, and crushed heaven and earth. It pierced straight into the Black King's forehead. At the last moment, the skeletal giant raised its giant skeletal hand to block the sword radiance.
She didn't give up. She slashed viciously, shattering the hard bones of the skeletal hand. The giant skeletal hand turned into specks of light that fell from the sky. The ground in the hand was about to fall.
Night Shadow was overjoyed. She didn't care about the blood on her body and jumped up, intending to find Xin Yi. At this moment, a giant red mouth suddenly appeared and bit down.
"Ah!!!"
Night Shadow let out a shrill scream.
Dong Lingai, whose eyes were already covered with tears of blood, raised her head and looked at the sky, only to see the ground being swallowed by the giant mouth. A black dot fell from the sky and fell to the ground together with the giant white bone hand that was cut off.
Boom!
Everything was silent.
The skeletal giant that the Black King had transformed into fled into the darkness and disappeared.
He had eaten the ground at the last moment, leaving nothing behind.
Night Shadow's right hand was gone, and her empty sleeve fluttered in the wind.
Her right hand had also been completely shattered by that bite. The black magic particles instantly invaded her body, preventing her from regenerating.
Fortunately, Dong Ling Love caught her and used Necromancy to disperse the black magic particles, preventing them from invading her heart.
However, her right hand could no longer be regenerated. The black magic particles around her arm were like gangrene, quickly accumulating. She could only use magic to block them and temporarily save Night Shadow's life.
The Black King had appeared, taken away a piece of land in the Northern Land, and even swallowed Li Xinyi.
The news spread like wildfire.
Dong Ling Love and Night Shadow had just returned to the new Polar night when the news spread throughout the seven continents.
Everyone was shocked. Soon, they received a replay of the entire battle. They were all stunned when they saw the skeletal giant that Black King had transformed into.
He was definitely out of control. He was neither human nor ghost, but those few words showed that he still had humanity in him.
Nobody knew if this was a success or failure.
In the end, it was Lancelot who explained that the Black King had been above Level-9 for a long time. This time, he wanted to go one step further, which was why he had used the Ji family as a stepping stone. Unfortunately, he had failed.
After this was announced, many people were shocked.
Especially the other four Sovereigns, they looked at the king that they respected differently.
No one was willing to become the nourishment for the king's advancement, no matter how much they loved that king.
Lancelot's move was extremely beautiful.
At the same time, the lurking Level-9 people became active again. They had the idea of imitating the Black King.
However, they had to have enough vassals and forces. Therefore, war broke out all over the seven continents.
The quietest one was the Evil Majesty's Court, which had caused the entire incident.
It was the Lightless Queen's ruthless attack that became the last straw that broke the Ji family's back. The chain reaction led to today's situation.
However, everyone in the Evil Majesty's Court knew that Bai Lili was very unhappy.
She was omniscient and omnipotent, but she did not expect this to happen. The daughter that she had given birth to, her own granddaughter, was taken away.
Many people knew that she liked Li Xinyi.
Since Ming Xu's death and Li Xiang's disappearance, she had become the only symbol that these two people had left in the seven continents. If something happened to her …
Fei Yujing did not do anything new. She was observing Bai Lili's subsequent actions. To her, the Black King might be stronger because he could ignore Bai Lili's omniscience. Perhaps he had reached the same level of combat power as her!
