Chapter 432 Crazy Plan

Hearing Yu Zhun's words, the others slowly emerged from the shock and sorrow of initially hearing the news.

Indeed, the timing of Lu Wen's life tablet breaking was too coincidental, and given their consistent understanding of Lu Wen, he wouldn't die so easily.

only…

The thought that Lu Wen had deleted them all, seemingly to avoid doing something with them, filled everyone with a sense of gloom.

Are they going to lose a partner they entrusted their life to?

In an instant, everyone's hatred for the Fifth Divine District intensified.

"What do you plan to do?" Helmod spoke first. "With our strength, it's already the limit to extort two Heaven-Mending Jade from the Fifth Divine District. After this experience, it's almost impossible to repeat the same trick against their five near-third-stage cultivators."

"After all, the Fifth Divine District isn't stupid."

“Of course I won’t use the same trick again.” Yu Zhun shook his head. “Besides, the real strength of the Fifth Divine District lies in the large number of third-tier experts.”

"Even if we kill all five of those near-third-tier advancements, they'll only suffer for a short while. With their resources, they can quickly create new near-third-tier advancements."

"So this time, we're going straight for the third tier."

As he said this, a look of madness flashed in Yu Zhun's eyes.

“To attack a third-tier opponent…” Udyr’s expression changed slightly. “With just the few of us, I’m afraid it won’t be enough.”

“Sometimes, even small fry can influence the struggles between behemoths.” Yu Zhun chuckled. “We are no match for the Fifth Divine District, but the Fourth and Fifth Divine Districts don’t get along.”

"It's not appropriate to scheme against my world right in front of me, is it?" Helmod shook his head helplessly. "Tell me, how do you want me to cooperate?"

"You're cooperating already?" Udyr couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"I believe Yu Zhun wouldn't betray me."

Helmod glanced at Yu Zhun, "Right?"

“Of course.” Yu Zhun chuckled. “The Fifth Divine District is a behemoth in our eyes, but any world has another identity in front of other worlds.”

"That's the prey."

"If the Fifth Divine District becomes weak, even if we do nothing, won't the worlds that have a grudge against it in the past take action?"

“Of course not.” Helmod shook his head. “There are many complex factors involved in the conflict between worlds, but ultimately it comes down to seizing various resources from the other side’s servers.”

"If the Fifth Divine District weakens, it will be an easy piece of meat for our Fourth Divine District to obtain."

At this point, Helmod seemed to understand Yu Zhun's intention, "You intend to use this method to achieve maximum effect with minimal effort?"

"But that must be very difficult."

"Because similar ideas have been thought of before, the current conflict between the Fourth and Fifth Divine Districts is the final result of repeated confrontations and eye-rolls."

"This game has become far too complex. To make a divine move and instantly shift the tide to the fourth divine zone is as difficult as ascending to heaven."

“No matter how difficult it is, we have to give it a try.” Yu Zhun smiled. “Actually, when you think about it carefully, we’re not completely without any trump cards.”

"At least, we have one wish from the master of the God and Demon Palace."

"Furthermore, I also know a few Demon Lords."

“Besides…” Yu Zhun paused slightly, “I have already thought of a partner to cooperate with.”

"And this is someone you've probably never considered."

Upon hearing this, Helmod and the others frowned slightly.

A partner they never considered?

Before the others could even think of it, Yu Zhun had already revealed the answer: "That is the Second Divine District."

"...The Second Divine District?" Helmod was slightly taken aback, then his eyes widened suddenly. "You're using the Second Divine District to deal with the First Divine District?"

“Not bad.” Yu Zhun nodded slightly. “It is said that the top three god zones are closely connected and jointly control the same 5A dungeon, but in my opinion, the relationship between the three god zones may not really be that good as to be inseparable.”

"This can be roughly seen from the confrontation between the divine sons from the three divine districts in the [Desolate Ruins]."

“There must be fierce competition among them.”

“But the Second God Zone cannot attack the First God Zone.” Helmod frowned. “As far as I know, under normal circumstances, only gods can control the 5A dungeon. The three strongest beings in the first three God Zones are all at the ninth level of godhood. They control it together in some special way.”

"If any one of them has a problem, it could lead to a significant reduction in the other two parties' control over the 5A instance."

“I am well aware that none of the top three divine regions can be destroyed at this stage.” Yu Zhun shook his head speechlessly, “but the weakening of the first divine region by the second divine region is something we would certainly welcome.”

"If we can find a way to try and get it, it might bring us an unexpected surprise."

"However, to achieve this, we need to set a trap."

"Are you crazy?!"

The avatar of the Crimson Demon Lord trembled violently, almost collapsing on the spot due to unstable energy caused by past intense emotions. He stared dumbfounded at the composed Yu Zhun, and after a moment he couldn't help but click his tongue.

"I knew you had a ruthless streak, but I never imagined you could be this ruthless."

"Enough with the nonsense." Yu Zhun tapped the table. "One Heaven-Mending Jade in exchange for your help this time."

"Yes or no?"

“Sure.” The Crimson Demon Lord shrugged. “Since you’ve offered such a good thing, I naturally don’t mind doing some dirty work.”

"Server number 67238, right?"

"Just wait for my good news."

With a soft hum, the Crimson Demon Lord vanished from the spot.

“Yu Zhun, thank you.” Udir said with a complicated expression, “This extra second Heaven-Mending Jade should have belonged to all of us, but now it has been used to avenge my world.”

Server 67238 is the server that has been targeting Udyr's world for the past twenty years, and it is also a subordinate of the Fifth God Zone.

"No need to be so grateful." Yu Zhun shook his head. "Your reasons for choosing this server are only one aspect."

"More importantly, its level is exactly what we can interfere with with our current methods, and if we want to complete our next plan, we need a stage that can attract everyone."

"If no one provides this stage, then we'll build it ourselves!"

As he spoke, a hint of madness flashed in Yu Zhun's eyes. He slowly took out a token that was interwoven with gold and black, and then crushed it violently.

"Om-"

With a low hum, Yu Zhun's figure vanished from the spot, leaving Helmod and the others in the bar.

“He even used that wish.” Helmod couldn’t help but shake his head. “It seems he’s really going to do something big this time.”

Having just overheard Yu Zhun's deal with the Crimson Demon Lord, he was already somewhat terrified. The deal involved the Crimson Demon Lord intercepting and killing the protector of server 67238, while simultaneously ensuring that no new third-tier powerhouse would form a contract with this world.

Until the world is finally copied.

Within the rules, a third-tier powerhouse can indeed do this in the Godless Zone, but very few third-tier powerhouses do it directly.

After all, the subsequent impact is quite significant.

It can be said that if Yu Zhun hadn't taken out that Heaven-Mending Jade, no third-level expert would have agreed. But he just happened to take out something that the Crimson Demon Lord couldn't refuse, and the Crimson Demon Lord was a madman to begin with.

Thus, in just a few words, the destruction of server number 67238 became a foregone conclusion.

Helmod could already deduce that what Yu Zhun was going to do by expending a wish must also be related to this upcoming new instance.

I just don't know what kind of relationship it will be.

"Step~"

After a dizzying spin, Yu Zhun found himself standing inside the treasure hall of the God and Demon Palace, and the figure of God 1 quietly appeared before him.

"You crushed the token." God 1's tone was somewhat amused. "The speed was faster than I expected."

So, what is your wish?

"Even a wish like directly breaking through to the third stage, I can fulfill for you."

“Then there’s no need.” Yu Zhun shook his head, refusing without hesitation. “Second job advancement is my biggest advantage right now.”

"If we actually become a third-tier player, we will lose this advantage."

The current protector of Blue Star is Yu Zhu's contracted beast, Golden Ring. Golden Ring has long resided on Blue Star's native land, and since alien gods cannot enter Blue Star, it is impossible for them to kill it. In addition, Golden Ring's incredible regenerative ability has almost eliminated the possibility of Blue Star becoming a duplicate from the root.

However, if someone on Earth were to break through to the third stage, that would be a different story, since Earth would lose the second layer of rule protection after the third stage.

When all the three revolutions on Earth perish, Earth will enter an irreversible state of duplication.

One can imagine what Yu Zhun would experience if he hastily broke through to the third stage, given the current situation.

Even if the strongest expert in the Fifth Divine Region at the eighth level of divine transformation personally intervened to kill him, it wouldn't be entirely impossible!

"In that case, what do you want?" God 1 asked quietly.

“Server 67238 is about to be dungeoned.” Yu Zhun took a deep breath. “I hope this dungeon will become a permanent Lv90 dungeon, and I will design the specific content of the dungeon.”

As Yu Zhun finished speaking, the Treasure Hall suddenly fell silent.

After a moment, God1 slowly spoke, "Server 67238 is a very weak server. It doesn't even have any Lv90 players. According to the rules, such a world can only be converted into a Lv60 dungeon at most."

"If we want to transform it into a Lv90 instance, the server itself is not enough; we need the intervention of other forces."

"Given your contributions, we can make an exception this time."

Upon hearing this, Yu Zhun breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew that server 67238 could not normally become a Lv90 instance, but there was only one newly created Lv90 instance that could become the stage needed for the next plan.

With their current capabilities, it's impossible for them to turn a top-tier server into a dungeon, but their wish has given Yu Zhun the opportunity to realize the impossible.

"As for what you said, you designed the content of the instance." God1 paused slightly. "This is a permanent instance."

"The design rights for the instance are in the hands of the strongest player on the server. The Divine Demon Palace will only intervene if the other party gives up the design."

"However, this time, because an external force has intervened in the creation of the instance, you can have the right to adjust the instance."

"In other words, before the instance is confirmed but not yet launched, making some minor adjustments to the instance is the limit."

“A minor adjustment…” Yu Zhun chuckled, “That’s not bad either.”

"The two things you just mentioned are of equal value to your wish," God 1 said calmly. "Your wish has been fulfilled; the transaction is complete."

As His words fell, Yu Zhun disappeared into the treasure hall.

When only God 1 remained in the Treasure Hall, a hint of amusement appeared in His eyes. "A mere second-tier cultivator dares to scheme against the Fifth Divine District."

"I'm actually looking forward to what happens next."

When Yu Zhun returned to the bar booth, the other people's eyes immediately fell on him.

"What did you wish for?" Yu Zhu asked hastily.

"I wish that the instance on server 67238 will be upgraded to a level 90 instance, and that I will have the authority to make minor adjustments before the instance goes live," Yu Zhun explained with a smile, revealing the wish he had just made.

“These do indeed have the value of a wish,” Helmod said, frowning. “After all, only the master of the God and Demon Palace can do this.”

"But this wish should be used for something more important to you, since the quality of this instance is not important to you."

“No, this is very important.” Yu Zhun shook his head slightly. “If our plan goes smoothly, the first raid on this instance will bring us something far more than we wish for.”

"And with the authority to fine-tune the instance, I've essentially taken the position of the player in the game." As he said this, a glint of light flashed in Yu Zhun's eyes. "This next strategy is destined to be the focus of everyone's attention."

“Until then, all we can do is wait.” Yu Zhun paused slightly, looking at Rael, who had been sitting quietly beside Udir. “Luwen is missing, and the team is temporarily short one person.”

"Udyr, what do you think of your sister?"

"Me?" Rael looked surprised. "Can I really do it?"

“Rayel, don’t underestimate yourself.” Udyr gently stroked Rayel’s hair. “Although you haven’t reached X4 level talent yet, you have reached X3 level talent over the years.”

After more than twenty years apart, Rael had matured considerably, and Udir's attitude toward her had gradually changed. He no longer kept her under his wing. Yu Zhun's suggestion coincided with her thoughts.

“Let her join.” Udyr looked at Yu Zhun and said softly, “Rayel is enough to temporarily fill the gap in the team’s melee position.”

"Rayle, now we're going to conquer the dungeon together!" Yu Zhu stepped forward with a grin and took Rayle's hand, clearly delighted as well.

"I have no objection," Helmod said, crossing his arms.

“Well…” Rael pursed his lips, then stood up and bowed deeply. “Please guide me, seniors!”

"clang--"

At that very moment, a strange bell suddenly rang out.

The tolling of the bell contained an extreme sorrow, like the curtain falling on a world, instantly resounding throughout all servers and all instances.

That was the death knell for the world, a harbinger of a world about to be copied.

Yu Zhun looked at the faintly shimmering deep red lines on the back of his right hand, a smile appearing on his face.

"Operich's mission is complete."

"This great show is about to officially begin."
