The special meaning of Xutian Huanjing was supposed to be an absolute secret. To some extent, the chaotic battle twenty-five years ago could be attributed to its emergence. Lin Feng was just a young upstart; how did he know the true essence of this game framework, which was originally designed by several grand elders at the Yizhe Alliance conference twenty-five years ago? Or to put it more plainly, the essence of Xutian Huanjing was initially created by the nine grand elders at the time to unify the classification of superhuman Yizhe and coordinate resource allocation through an ancient ritual known as the Gathering Spirit Array, specifically opened for Yizhe combat in an alternate dimension.
Xutian Huanjing indeed existed as a real alternate dimensional space, but when it was opened by the nine grand elders twenty-five years ago, due to a sudden, bizarre war, the key to opening this alternate dimension also vanished into the annals of history. Qin Jian discovered by sheer chance that a mysterious cult in Japan was aggressively recruiting young men and women with pure Yang and Yin bodies, allegedly to reopen Xutian Huanjing to welcome the arrival of a true god. The cult, calling itself the Rising Sun Sect, was soon eradicated in Japan. Strangely, an obscure company named Yamato Corporation suddenly announced they had developed an online game called “Huanjing.” Upon seeing the game’s plot, mechanics, and other details, Qin Jian, a survivor from that time, was greatly shocked.
The events of the Rising Sun Sect and Yamato Corporation’s “Huanjing” were ten years after the war. Before that, Qin Jian had been secretly investigating the truth of the past events. Suddenly, in these two incidents, he found what seemed like answers, and his focus naturally shifted entirely to these two matters. After the Rising Sun Sect was eradicated in Japan, it disappeared without a trace, leaving only the game “Huanjing,” which he managed to bring back to his country for release after overcoming numerous obstacles. Twenty-five years ago, the grand ritual performed by the nine grand elders to open the alternate dimension was called the Great Gathering Spirit Array, capable of breaking through the void to directly access the alternate dimensional boundary, known in the Yizhe world as the Realm of Psychic Power. Simply put, Yizhe could use psychic force to transport their souls into this realm, a form of soul projection.
The concept was that human souls could leave their bodies and enter the Realm of Psychic Power, where they could engage in fierce battles without fear of death as long as their physical bodies remained unharmed. This ingenious idea was the grandest goal of the Yizhe Alliance, aimed at training and rapidly enhancing the capabilities of Yizhe. One could imagine the revolutionary impact on the Yizhe world’s structure if such a training base had been successfully preserved. Unfortunately, when the alternate dimensional space was successfully opened, it brought about a blood-soaked chaos. Who could have imagined that twenty-five years later, in a remote mountain town in China, a similar yet different ritual known as the Nine Absolute Gathering Spirit Array was performed, and the one performing it was none other than the long-lost Rising Sun cult. The alternate dimension space of Xutian Huanjing, sealed due to unforeseen events twenty-five years ago, was reopened within the mysterious “Huanjing” game by an unknown young man. What connection does today’s Nine Absolute Gathering Spirit Array have with the original Gathering Spirit Array that opened Xutian Huanjing? And who exactly is this young man, Lin Feng, who has bizarrely linked the online world with the alternate dimension of Xutian Huanjing? Today’s Jiu Jue Ju Shen Formation has been transformed into the so-called “God-Making Plan” deduction method from the ancient legends of the Intention World. Lin Feng, who benefited the most from this formation back then, could it be that he is the so-called true god descended upon the earth? Gazing at the young silhouette, Qin Jian felt a mix of suspicion, speculation, bewilderment, and unease. He had always been carefully observing this seemingly naive young man, but suddenly realized that he could understand less and less about him. Whether it was the young man’s strength or the increasingly clear eyes beneath that harmless expression, they were all becoming more inscrutable. The gaze of an innocent child is the clearest because their inner world is pure and simple. However, does Lin Feng, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old with such clear eyes, have a simple and pure heart? No one has the right to conclude.
“Yin Ge Si, target one at the nine o’clock direction, appears!” Combat suddenly erupted in an unexpected moment. “Nine Curves, Three Forms, Stone Thrust!” A cold smile appeared on Lin Feng’s lips. Before the ambushers could attack, he simply used a move called “Stone Thrust” to eliminate three encircling hunters. In this concrete jungle filled with cement, steel, and asphalt, there were far too many deadly weapons he could utilize. Three system notifications of target elimination echoed in his consciousness, and he gained some experience points and reputation. Three ninjas of the fifth level, huh? Hey, looks like these little Japs are really putting in some effort! This was the twenty-first ambush he encountered on his way to the meeting point with Teng Lan Ji Yuan. Initially, he only faced two girls, seemingly ordinary tourists around thirteen or fourteen years old. As Lin Feng exited the alley, these two Hawaiian girls rushed up to him, pouring out a stream of sweet talk, pretending to ask for directions while suddenly releasing smoke bombs to knock him out. Unfortunately, after several traps set by Lan Yu, the standard kawaii girl, Lin Feng’s most despised type of female was this kind of abnormal cute creature. The smoke bomb was just a joke to him; he dodged it and walked away. Unexpectedly, the two super cute girls suddenly went berserk after being easily dodged by him, disregarding the safety of bystanders, and unleashed a powerful area attack, marking the beginning of Lin Feng’s slaughter. Lin Feng was never afraid of mercilessly eliminating all enemies who dared to attack him, as those who opposed him would eventually turn into a puff of black smoke and vanish, leaving no trace of their bodies. Even if someone wanted to accuse him of being a murderer, they would find it hard to gather evidence. Today, he was there to collect a debt from Teng Lan Ji Yuan, a massive compensation of one hundred billion US dollars.
“Da Sheng, I’ve arrived, where are you?” Upon reaching the agreed location, he glanced around; the scene was indeed bustling with at least a thousand media reporters of all sizes, making the place as crowded as a marketplace. Sun Da Sheng and two bodyguards from the Overlord Flower appeared before Lin Feng.
“Boss, we agreed to come together, why did you have to come alone? How was the traffic?” Sun Da Sheng was dressed flamboyantly, wearing sunglasses, looking like a street thug, and his way of speaking was always playful, mimicking the style of a street hoodlum.
“Watch your image! *** You’re the marketing director of Marumi Corporation now, take off those sunglasses!” Lin Feng pretended to kick Sun Da Sheng, then exchanged a glance with the two bodyguards, confirming that everyone else had arrived safely.
