Minecraft players are invading the worlds.

With a clear eagle cry, the massive Ice Shadow Eagle, exuding extreme cold, appeared out of thin air. Its broad wings flapped sharply, dispersing some of the surrounding blood-red mist.

Xu Tian nimbly flipped and jumped onto the eagle's back, while simultaneously pulling a purplish-black cube from his backpack and slamming it heavily to the ground.

"You all jump in, quick!"

Xu Tian pointed to the Ender Box and said.

Without the slightest hesitation, Peak, Madman, and the others, carrying the humans, transformed into streaks of light and entered the Ender Chest.

After confirming that everyone had gone inside, Xu Tian immediately switched to an enchanted pickaxe, dug up the Ender Chest with two quick snips, and pocketed it.

"Walk".

With a tug from Xu Tian, ​​the Ice Shadow Eagle's massive body shot up from the ground, transforming into a streak of blue light and hurtling towards the high sky outside Blackrock Fortress at top speed.

Amidst the howling wind, Xu Tian turned around and stared at the movements behind him.

Above the entire Blackrock Fortress, countless streams of blood seemed to have lost their gravity, transforming into reverse-flowing crimson waterfalls that frantically converged into the air.

The massive energy fluctuation even caused a slight ripple in the surrounding space.

"Could this be the mastermind who has been hiding in the town lord's mansion all along?"

Xu Tian secretly wondered what was going on, his brows furrowed.

The Ice Shadow Eagle was incredibly fast, and in just a few breaths, it carried Xu Tian directly out of the dangerous area shrouded in red blood clouds.

Xu Tian stopped high in the sky at a safe distance, letting the Ice Shadow Eagle hover in the clouds and coldly watch the strange phenomenon behind him.

Soon, at the center of that endless vortex of blood energy, space seemed to be torn apart by a pair of invisible hands.

A tall figure slowly emerged in mid-air.

It was a monster with the head of a giant goat. Although its body had a humanoid outline, it was dressed in a tattered dark red robe and held a white bone staff inlaid with scarlet gems.

Countless red energies frantically converged into its withered body, and with the injection of energy, the pressure emanating from it surged exponentially.

Sensing the terrifying aura that far exceeded what the current players could withstand, Xu Tian's eyes grew even colder.

At this moment, the goat-man floating in mid-air also turned his enormous goat head and locked onto Xu Tian, ​​who was far away in the sky.

The next second, a hoarse voice pierced through the distance of space and resounded in Xu Tian's mind.

"Hehehe, speaking of which, I should thank you outsiders."

The goat-man's voice carried a hint of mockery.

"Clear almost all the orcs out of this fortress for me. I originally intended to sacrifice the entire human population of this town to obtain the power of pure despair, but unfortunately, you've taken them all away..."

It paused, then gently waved its bone staff, absorbing all the remaining blood energy around it into its body.

"Fortunately, you left me with this group of orcs who killed each other and died in extreme madness and despair. The resentment that erupted from their souls can bring me more benefits than those cowardly humans. Such sacrifices are rare indeed."

Hearing these arrogant remarks, Xu Tian remained completely unfazed beneath his mask and said...

"From what you're saying, you already knew about the tricks we were using down there?"

"good".

“From the moment you ants began to impersonate gods and save the orcs, I have been watching you. However, I have not interfered, because what you want and what I want are not fundamentally in conflict.”

The goat-man spreads his arms wide, making a gesture as if embracing the sky.

“You want to go to great lengths to rescue those humans, while I want a city filled with death and sacrifice. Since there is no conflict, I will go with the flow and let you rescue that insignificant number of humans. What harm is there? On the contrary, your metal box that plays music has done me a great favor, saving me the effort of creating panic myself.”

Looking at the smug goat-man, Xu Tian thought to himself.

"That's interesting."

He showed no fear whatsoever; instead, he looked at the other person as if they were prey.

Seemingly provoked by Xu Tian's calm yet somewhat arrogant attitude, the goat-man's eyes, which were burning with red light, suddenly darkened.

"Ants, although I appreciate your labor, your existence still an eyesore to me. As a reward, I grant you death."

Before he finished speaking, the goat-man raised his bone staff and pointed it at Xu Tian's location from thousands of meters away.

"boom!"

Without warning, a red light instantly condensed at the top of the staff.

Immediately afterwards, an unimaginable surge of immense magical power, almost capable of crushing the heavens and earth, suddenly erupted.

The red light transformed into a beam of destructive light that pierced through the heavens and earth, hurtling towards Xu Tian at a terrifying speed that gave him no time to react.

The moment the beam of light burst forth, Xu Tian's pupils suddenly contracted.

Chapter 217 The Totem of Immortality

That's too fast. This level of attack is simply impossible for players to dodge at this stage.

In that critical moment, Xu Tian's brain made the most instinctive judgment.

Without any hesitation, he immediately retrieved his mount.

The Ice Shadow Eagle's massive body transformed into a streak of light in mid-air and was instantly returned to the pet space.

Having lost the support of his mount, Xu Tian's body immediately plummeted downwards.

But at the same instant, the earth-shattering red beam of light struck Xu Tian hard, piercing through his body and crashing into a mountain range not far behind him.

"Boom!"

The deafening explosion resounded through the sky.

Under Xu Tian's peripheral vision, the towering mountain, which seemed to have been wiped out by this seemingly casual strike, collapsed instantly, turning into dust that filled the sky.

"Alright, I've had enough fun with you lowly creatures. Having absorbed the blood energy here, it's time for me to head to the next orc town and continue my great sacrifice."

The goat-man's voice echoed slowly across the sky.

As that terrifying blow landed, it seemed to have no interest in even confirming whether Xu Tian was alive or dead. Its figure twisted in the blood-red spatial ripples before disappearing completely from the spot.

At this time.

"boom!"

A crisp cracking sound rang in his ears.

Under the high damage of the red beam, his health bar was instantly emptied. At the moment it reached zero, the golden statue of immortality totem that he had been tightly clutching in his left hand suddenly burst out with a dazzling golden light.

The light instantly enveloped Xu Tian's falling body.

Green life-restoring particles flickered wildly in mid-air.

They forcibly pulled him back from the abyss of death.

Xu Tian steadied himself in mid-air and, with his strong body control, landed steadily on a barren flat area below.

He looked at the immortal totem in his hand, which had completely dissipated into specks of golden starlight, and the corner of his mouth under the mask twitched involuntarily.

"This damage is outrageous."

Fortunately, he always had the Undying Totem with him to save his life; otherwise, he would have been sent back to town after that attack.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't heartbroken to see the totem shatter.

This item is currently an extremely scarce strategic resource in the game.

"Looks like we need to urge Sister Hei and the others. These immortal totems can't be mass-produced at all. The cost is too high when dealing with a boss of this level."

Xu Tian was secretly making plans in his mind.

He straightened up, looked up at the void where the goat-man had disappeared, and his eyes became deep.

"What kind of boss is this? It actually wants to go to the next orc town?"

Xu Tian stroked his chin.

However, upon closer reflection, the world channel has indeed been quite lively these past few days.

As players gradually improve, especially after flying pets become more common, their map exploration abilities have become exceptionally fierce.

Based on coordinates shared by enthusiastic map explorers and adventurers, many orc towns similar to Blackrock Fortress have been discovered.

"The next town? We'll run into each other again sooner or later."

Xu Tian regained his composure and stopped thinking about it.

He opened the map, checked the direction, and headed directly towards the nearest player's coordinates.

A dozen minutes later.

He found the Ender Chest that the player had placed on the outskirts.

Xu Tian stepped forward and entered the Ender Box directly.

A flash of light.

He had already been taken out of the box by Tianxia Wending.

He had already returned to his heavily guarded, magnificent private estate.

Xu Tian walked straight to a quiet lawn.

He reached out and released the healing Pokémon, Emerald Finch, from its Poké Ball.

"jiji"

"Reply to my status."

Xu Tian sat down wearily on a stone bench.

The jade bird immediately circled above Xu Tian's head, its small wings flapping suddenly.

Suddenly, a vibrant green light, like a gentle rain, showered over Xu Tian.

Xu Tian quietly watched the blood heart in the upper left corner of his vision, slowly rising from one point under the nourishment of green light.

"I've been busy planning the layout of Blackrock Fortress, which has taken up a lot of time. It's time to level up these main battle pets I have."

Xu Tian thought to himself.

The intensity of battles is increasing. When facing enemies like the Goat Man, pets below level 30 are not even qualified to be cannon fodder.

Just as he was deep in thought, a system notification popped up in front of him.
