Chapter 484: Sky Thief

The strong ones won't work; they can't be deceived.The weak ones won't work either; their presence is useless.So the guild leader assigned Lin Ruyu to keep an eye on the middle-level players, those who weren't quite up to par.Lin Ruyu himself, for example.These were the easiest to deceive, and they also happened to be effective.Suddenly, a faint figure in white appeared at the entrance to the back garden.The guild leader raised his hand slightly, rubbing the glass rings on his fingers together, a crisp, pleasant sound."We have guests.""You should all leave."With a soft snap of his fingers, he said this.Xiao Zheng and Lin Ruyu suddenly vanished.The uninvited guest, no longer concealing himself, stepped inside.His white hair was disheveled, and he carried a wooden sword case on his back, his eyes blank.It was Shen Ji.He stared intently at the man before him.He was adorned with gaudy ornaments, including a hat, glasses, and scarf. So, until now, no one knew what the president actually looked like; his face was mostly obscured by ornaments.He was truly too flamboyant.But Shen Ji was unfazed.A flash of sword intent flashed in his eyes.“Crack.”The two men were ten meters apart, and a tiny crack appeared between them.The president was unharmed.He casually removed his glasses, revealing a pair of perfectly ordinary eyes, black pupils and white sclera, indistinguishable from those of an ordinary person.At this moment, the president's eyes were playful, and he said, "If you want to see my face, just ask.""It's nothing to be ashamed of."Shen Ji's face darkened slightly.Just now, he had used sword intent to attack the president's silly glasses.But it had failed.The attack was stopped mid-strike.The other party was also using sword intent.But he was definitely not a sword cultivator.How bizarre.Most importantly, he received the worst possible answer.This mysterious president was not his companion. Not one of the seven Heaven-Defying ... "Sky Stealer?""Yes, it's me." The Guild Master smiled faintly."Interesting." Shen Ji's eyes were icy.Sky Stealer was a title.Similar to Ghost Lord, Ice Emperor, and Light Ruler.It was the exclusive title of a certain Heavenly Damaged!The one standing before Shen Ji, commanding the entire Hezong Alliance, was one of the oldest Heavenly Damaged.Even when Shen Ji was young, the Sky Stealer was already a legend.A peerless and elusive powerhouse.Bearing the Heavenly Damage, yet possessing a unique Heavenly Damage skill, it was said that while the Heavenly Damage shortened his lifespan, the Heavenly Damage skill extended it.The Sky Stealer had exploited this flaw and survived, avoiding the premature death of other Heavenly Damaged.But in Shen Ji's time, the Sky Stealer had disappeared.To have survived to this day was truly incredible."Call me President. After hearing it for so many years, I'm more used to it." The president yawned and said, "What you seven did back then, and what you ultimately encountered—I saw it all.""Transcendence."The president grinned and said, "I want to transcend, too.""Give me that chance.""Your friends aren't dead, and neither are those powerful warriors I hunted. Everyone will transcend with me."He paused, his eyes darkening as he stared at Shen Ji. "What about you?""Want to join us?"The moment he uttered the last word, Shen Ji took an uncontrollable step back.Fear flashed in his eyes, for he saw the abyss!An abyss filled with endless pain, anger, sorrow, and despair!At that moment, the endless emotions accumulating within the president seemed to tear him apart!He had to retreat.The back garden was stained with a layer of darkness.Shen Ji fell silent. The president let out a long breath and said, "It seems you're unwilling.""But you know, our enemies are always the same.""I'm tired, truly tired, and I don't want to attack anyone in the universe anymore.""Do you understand?"Shen Ji nodded, "I understand."He left the back garden.What had just happened had left him reeling for a long time.He had seen a true monster.Anyone who dared to stand in his way would be torn apart by his wrath.All this was happening like an undercurrent, in a deserted place.Li An didn't know who was planning what, or what they wanted.He only knew that the Hezong Alliance was about to change!In Room 0822.Li An lay on the sofa, reading a message, and laughed, "Rivers of blood are about to flow!"Incredible.The Hezong Alliance had come clean.These ancient ruins could indeed help one ascend directly to godhood.Those angry Mesozoic people could also ascend through these ruins!But there had to be a queue, a spot had to be purchased! From whom?The geniuses of the seven clans!The eight clans had spoken.If those Ninth Realm powerhouses were allowed to fight relentlessly for the ruins, many would die in the Hezong Alliance, weakening their strength. The bloody slaughter would also throw the world into chaos!A good thing turned into a bad thing, and that would be unpleasant.Therefore, the eight clans established a rule.Only registered geniuses from the seven clans could compete for the ruins.The first person to occupy a ruin would claim ownership.To enter the ruins, one had to purchase it from the owner.At this point,a new question arose.Where were the ruins?Two ruins had now appeared.Ruin No. 1, in the hands of the Protoss.Ruin No. 2, in the hands of the Humans.Ruin No. 3 and No. 4 hadn't appeared yet. What was to be done?Soon, everyone's doubts were dispelled.The eight clans all held clues to the ruins. They will issue these clues as missions.The geniuses of the seven clans should follow their missions.Find and occupy the ruins. Even if they don't ascend to godhood, they can still extort a fortune from the powerful Mesozoic beings.For the sake of the divine realm, those people are willing to sacrifice anything.That's why Li An said that the Hezong Alliance world is about to be a river of blood.
