[Then another sect was silently and brutally wiped out.]
Even though their members weren't inside the sect, they still died around the same time each day.
One sect after another was destroyed.
For a time, everyone was on edge.
In just one month, more than a dozen sects were wiped out in the same way.
No matter what methods are used, it is ultimately impossible to prevent.
A sense of fear began to take root in everyone's hearts.
But a premonition arose in your heart.
That familiar opponent has probably already appeared.
[The moment Lu Wuyai appeared before you, severely wounded, you knew in your heart that a final battle was inevitable.]
[A familiar scent of death, yet different combat tactics.]
This time, however, the other person clearly understands you better than you realize.
Even if you use every means at your disposal, you still cannot kill your opponent.
[It wasn't until Lu Wuyai chose to sacrifice his own life to severely injure him, forcing him to go into hiding, that you bought yourself some breathing room.]
But this is destined to be nothing more than an agonizing wait.
You cannot counter the opponent's tactics, and you cannot turn the tide of the battle.
You died at their hands.
Su Chen felt slightly depressed upon seeing this outcome.
Everything was developing too fast for him to do anything to remedy the situation.
It was as if a vast net had been laid out before he even made his move. Only when he suppressed others with swift and decisive action did this net begin to tighten.
"When exactly did that guy sneak in?"
All the formations failed without exception, and there wasn't even a warning.
How exactly did he do that?
Su Chen had been sufficiently cautious in the game.
They were practically armed to the teeth.
But the other party still managed to sneak in without making a sound.
If he can't provide early warnings, then all his plans will be for nothing, right?
Su Chen quickly glanced through the records.
We want to find some clues from the existing process.
After searching for a while, he actually found something useful!
"I thought there were only a few gaps, but I didn't expect there to be far more..."
No wonder they managed to sneak in without anyone noticing.
Su Chen discovered more cracks in some inconspicuous places.
He had thought the whole world was just a few holes.
But now reality tells him that the world is like a broken egg, with cracks everywhere except for a few holes.
"The reason the other party attacked the Thousand Machines Sect so quickly was probably because they were afraid of the power of that bracelet."
Without that bracelet, even with lightning magic, it would be difficult to completely restrain the opponent's movements. If He Xingyao hadn't died and the bracelet hadn't been lost, the opponent absolutely couldn't have grown so quickly.
Crossing the rift between worlds is no easy task for these extraterrestrial beings.
The oppression from heaven and earth was more intense than imagined.
Moreover, as outsiders, they are constantly targeted by the world.
To enter safely, one must limit one's strength to an extremely low level, then gradually accumulate power and disguise oneself.
They need a long period of time to develop slowly.
The chaos of the world provides them with a perfect opportunity to develop.
Su Chen's somewhat extreme choices in the past gave this guy a lot of opportunities.
"No matter the reason, He Xingyao cannot die!"
Su Chen licked his lips and immediately reverted the game to a previous save.
Choose 2!
As everyone expected, you didn't punish those people too harshly.
They were only given a slight punishment before being released.
Suddenly, many people felt that you seemed to have a better temper than they had imagined.
However, before they could repeat their old tricks, these people encountered a series of accidents.
Almost all of them were seriously injured.
Even at the late Nascent Soul stage, there is absolutely no difference.
They were forcibly restrained and then brutally beaten.
[They couldn't even clearly see who had attacked them.]
In the entire world, very few could accomplish this, and among them, no one but you has the strongest motivation.
Everyone knew the truth, but no one dared to say it.
After all, they broke the rules first, and you only gave them the punishment they deserved. Besides, they had no evidence whatsoever and could only swallow their anger.
[As you once again casually calculated cause and effect, you suddenly had a sudden realization.]
You discovered the cracks beyond those holes.
These spiderweb-like cracks make your elaborate formation seem like a joke.
You summoned Lu Wuyai and He Xingyao.
The current situation is nothing short of a blow to your heads.
The crisis has never been over; in fact, it has become even more severe than before.
The enemy could enter this world at any time, perhaps even already without your knowledge.
[If another large-scale investigation were launched, even if we could find the other party, just dealing with the various forces involved would be enough to give you a headache.]
[Aside from inciting unrest, there will be absolutely no gains.]
However, if left unchecked, these hidden dangers could explode at any time.
By then, the situation will be even more complicated.
Just as you were deep in thought, He Xingyao suddenly spoke.
She seems to have a way of digging out anyone who might be hiding!
Chapter 149 Lone Goose
Her bracelet seems to be an ancient heirloom; as He Xingyao's strength grows, more and more abilities become available to her.
Previously, He Xingyao could only use her anger to fight against the aura of decay.
Now, she can use the bracelet to directly expose the other person's disguise and pinpoint their location!
[Under your protection, He Xingyao prioritized monitoring all discovered fissures.]
Any extraterrestrial creature attempting to cross over will inevitably be detected by her.
[Thanks to He Xingyao's investigation, you have indeed discovered extraterrestrial creatures lurking within an inconspicuous sect!]
This sect is one of the groups that previously broke the rules!
[It seems the other party didn't expect you to discover its tracks so early.]
[It, still in its infancy, was utterly defeated by your combined efforts.]
But you astutely noticed that it had developed a certain immunity to your methods.
You intended to use the same old trick to trap the other person and then gradually wear them down.
But it seemed to have anticipated your thoughts, choosing to self-destruct before you could even act.
[Transforming into the purest essence, it escaped.]
You try every possible way to extinguish all traces of life.
[But deep down you know that they will come back with a vengeance.]
[It will definitely strike you the hardest when you least expect it.]
The only thing you can do is prevent it from happening in the first place.
You attempted to mobilize the alliance to close the newly emerged fissures.
This time, however, they were clearly not as enthusiastic as before.
【Your choice:】
[1. Ignore them and do your best. (This option may prevent you from sealing all the cracks.)]
2. Use coercion and inducement to maximize the alliance's power. (This option may lead to the alliance's disintegration.)
[3. Personal intervention, 1 attempt remaining.]
Looking at the first two options, Su Chen felt that neither choice was perfect.
The collapse of the alliance is a foregone conclusion.
No matter what method he uses to prolong it, it will not end well.
If the first option is chosen, the world may be invaded by more extraterrestrial creatures.
