The Professional Rankings, in twelve volumes, each bearing the name of my lord.

Xichuan City, suburbs, Advanced Research Institute No. 3.

It's no longer recognizable as it originally was.

A massive, pitch-black vortex, over 800 meters in diameter, floated and sank here, emitting wisps of black mist.

At the top of the vortex is Luo Tong, the host of the Dark Compass. His lower body is fused with the vortex, his arms are raised high, and his expression is exaggerated, as if he is performing a ritual.

Everything within a three-kilometer radius of this vortex was swallowed up by the immense gravity within it, including the land.

A spherical vacuum was formed.

Any object outside this vacuum that accidentally enters this three-kilometer radius will also be swallowed up.

Even the invisible air is being continuously sucked in.

Three kilometers away in mid-air, Wan Jianyi, wielding ten swords, was fighting against the ten mutated warriors controlled by the Dark Compass.

Because the basic attributes of these ten guys are very similar to those of Wan Jianyi.

Wan Jianyi found it difficult to defeat them in a short time, and even gradually fell into a disadvantageous position.

Up on the mountain, the bandits in the mirror image were still watching the show.

"How amazing! That black hole has turned into a vortex!"

"This vortex looks a lot like the entrance to a dungeon in the dungeon area."

"It's probably some kind of spatial teleportation channel."

"Is the Dark Compass really going to bring their Dark Emperor over?"

"Why should I take it?"

"Of course we're conquering Earth! Are we here for a vacation?!"

"Wan Jianyi has gone all out! He just sliced ​​off half of the mountain next to us with a single sword strike."

"That was a really exciting fight! I love watching men fight!"

While watching the show from the sidelines, Wan Jianyi and the mutant warrior were evenly matched.

A region-wide announcement was made regarding the shattering of the main crystal.

Wan Jianyi's fighting movements did not pause at all. In fact, it was as if he had been stimulated by something. With a legendary skill, he hit ten mutated warriors and forced them all back.

Wan Jianyi seized the opportunity, shifted his form, and arrived within a three-kilometer radius of the black vortex.

A terrifying force of attraction pulled Wan Jianyi into the vortex.

Wan Jianyi tried to fly in the opposite direction on his sword so that he wouldn't get too fast when approaching the Dark Compass.

Luo Tong, whose face was covered in black markings and whose forehead shone with the Eye of Horus, looked at Wan Jianyi.

"You don't seem surprised that the main crystal of your China region shattered."

Wan Jianyi slowly approached, a cold smile on his face.

"Isn't this something that was expected?"

"Since you discovered our presence in Glory City beforehand, if you had intervened earlier, things might not have turned out this way today?"

"You can even change the rules of the 'Clerics' game, so what if I stopped you from doing what you were doing in Glory City?"

"Wan Jianyi, you're really ruthless. To capture me, you're willing to let the danger level of Glory City rise, even if the Abyss invades the whole world and countless people die, you're willing to do it!"

"All your Dark Artifacts pedantic theories are the same. Remember, you're the one who's harming people, not me!"

Wan Jianyi had already heard Dark Dagger explain the theory of the Dark Compass before.

Wan Jianyi had no idea that they could modify the game rules to bring forward the Abyss invasion, nor did they know that the Dark Compass could turn "Hengzi" into a small black hole.

From his perspective, only by seizing the Dark Artifact could the problem be solved once and for all; otherwise, it would only alert the enemy and treat the symptoms but not the root cause.

This teleporting dark artifact is the most difficult to capture.

Wan Jianyi would naturally do everything in his power to capture him.

Unfortunately, we suffered from the information gap.

"Wan Jianyi, with the Glory City crystal shattered, the entire region will enter the battle to resist the Abyss invasion. No one will come to your aid! You alone cannot stop me! Come forth, great Dark Emperor!!"

Wan Jianyi looked astonished.

"You can really get the Dark Emperor to teleport here?"

This means that the Dark Compass has indeed opened a space teleportation channel spanning the universe!

Is this even possible?

Isn't that a bit too much?

Does the Dark Compass have ulterior motives, and is all this just a bluff?

Just then, Wan Jianyi noticed that the gravitational pull emanating from the massive black vortex had disappeared.

Within those clumps of black mist, something is pushing through the mist, trying to emerge!

"Dark Emperor?!"

I don't have time to think about it in detail.

As soon as gravity disappeared, the ten aberrant warriors attacked again.

Wan Jianyi had no choice but to engage them in battle once again.

"Headquarters! District Chief! This is Wan Jianyi! Immediately dispatch clergy to my coordinates! There's an apocalyptic emergency here! A being suspected to be the Dark Emperor is about to descend!!"

Wan Jian held a special communicator in one hand and shouted into it.

This is a special communication device that can only be used in absolute emergency situations.

His message would be sent directly to the highest-ranking leader in the entire federation.

Is it coming?

"What does the Dark Emperor look like?"

"Will he be more handsome than me?"

"Interesting, very interesting! Could we say we've witnessed history?"

Mirror South Wind's mahjong face frowned.

"Brothers, if the Dark Emperor comes, will everyone on Blue Star be wiped out? If everyone's dead, where will we go to have fun?"

Mirror Ghost Brother scratched his face.

"Is the Dark Emperor really that powerful? Blue Star's strength must be considerable too."

"However, the professional system is really inferior among all external systems. Look, the seven dark artifacts that control the power of rules all regard the Dark Emperor as superior. The Dark Emperor is many times stronger than them."

"So you're saying that... But didn't the compass just tell Wan Jianyi that they won't destroy Blue Star, and that they want life on Blue Star to continue to thrive forever?"

"Life on Earth is not the same as humanity on Earth, is it?"

"Why don't we just ask him?"

Mirror Ghost activated his skill, summoned a skeleton dragon, stood on it, and flew towards the Dark Compass.

Luo Tong was enraged at the sight of the Mirror Image Ghost. "The Dao of Forgetfulness! Aren't you leaving yet? When the Dark Emperor descends, I will ask him to eliminate you first!"

Mirror Ghost Bro: "And then?"

Luo Tong: "Then it's Xichuan City, Huaxia District, and the Blue Star Federation! We're going to kill everyone! Let this world become the soil for our grand plan!"

The Mirror Ghost Brother turned around and flew back to the Path of Meditation.

"After asking around, it seems his original intention was to kill everyone and spare the rest of the lives."

Mirror Fog nodded in agreement.

"Humans have wisdom and will resist them. Not killing them will hinder their damned plan."

There are mirror images of bandits making comments.

"How come this guy answers every question?"

Mirror Ghost shrugged.

"This is how villains always feel when they're about to succeed."

Just then, someone exclaimed in surprise.

"Look! The Dark Emperor has emerged from that vortex!"

"What does it look like?!"

"It looks just like four of them!"

"Clam???"
