Chapter 790 - 784: Ma Ran, A Man of His Word!
No matter what plan Zhao Guanlan has, just counter move by move and dismantle each one!
——That’s what Yue Sheng thought.
Zhao Guanlan wants to operate "All Heavens OL"?
Then let him fail to operate!
Make all those so-called players quit the server by killing them!
By then, no matter how Zhao Guanlan hides, he should react, right?
As long as he reacts, Yue Sheng will definitely catch the flaw and find a way to take down Zhao Guanlan.
This is the confidence Yue Sheng has developed through countless trials.
Even though he was divided into a million entities, Yue Sheng remained confident.
He could clearly feel that these million selves hadn’t been harmed at all, and there were no hidden traps or backdoors left by the opponent, making a sneak attack impossible.
In Yue Sheng’s view, Zhao Guanlan’s actions were actually counterproductive, helping him save the heart power of having to find the game worlds of "All Heavens OL" one by one.
After all, he is the "Supreme of Darkness", not the "Supreme of Space". Finding a million special worlds in the endless planes is still somewhat troublesome.
"These so-called players are essentially residents of Earth and Cangming Star."
With a thought, across the maps of "All Heavens OL", fierce winds roared, thunder shook the world, flames soared, light disappeared, creating an end-of-the-world scene: "At first glance, they look like soulless fakes, giving the impression of being remotely controlled, manipulating ’puppet bodies’, but that’s not really the case."
"I must kill them slowly and gradually analyze the secrets of these players."
"Right now, the advantage is mine."
"But these players..."
Yue Sheng noticed that on Secret Weaving Star, there was once a hardheaded player with a peculiar mindset, perhaps knowing they were under the protection of the "Supreme of Death" Zhao Guanlan, they were completely unafraid of death, even increasing their "pain parameter" to a hundred percent, intending to temper their own spiritual will through repeated deaths.
Ordinarily, this is suicidal behavior, as the endurance of any intelligent life form has its limits. To become stronger through training, one must maintain a limit. Exceeding the limit frequently not only damages potential but can also lead to mental fragmentation, soul collapse, or even dispersion.
But the problem was...
That hardheaded, insane player, after being slain over a hundred times by the Pitch Black Immortal Sword, had their true spirit blessed with a wisp of supreme aura, resulting in a sudden enlightenment and increased comprehension.
This is quite normal; after all, merely being touched by a slight supreme aura can make one a child of destiny, favored by fate, possessing great fortune.
Yue Sheng merely narrowed his eyes to notice the player’s unique data panel, discovering the player had gained a special achievement that increased comprehension.
Although he didn’t care much about these things, he didn’t want to fund the enemy either, so he simply used ancient immortal means, effortlessly slaying these ten billion players with sword control.
This way, no matter how many times he tormented them, the players could no longer be tainted by even a trace of supreme aura and derive benefits from it.
In the million maps of "All Heavens OL", the players waging wars across countless worlds quickly received notifications from the All Heavens Assistant, becoming infuriated and cursing loudly.
"What the hell! ’Yue Sheng has withdrawn the supreme aura, deciding to use the simplest means to crush the ants known as players’—what does that mean? Look down on people?"
"Damn it, the ’Embers Under the Supreme Sword’ achievement with proficiency +10 is gone!"
"This Yue Sheng is so petty! Now he doesn’t even go all out to kill us!"
The players weren’t afraid of death or difficulties but genuinely resisted battles that yielded no benefits after exhausting themselves.
Yue Sheng ignored the cries of these mundane ants, his expression calm, voice leisurely as he spoke loudly: "Zhao Guanlan, Supreme of Death, are you not going to act? How long are you going to wait?"
Provocation is a very simple and very effective means. But Yue Sheng didn’t expect someone as shameless as Zhao Guanlan to be provoked into stepping in directly.
He just hoped for a response from the other side.
Any response would do.
As his voice fell, Yue Sheng received no reply.
On the contrary, the players found a new topic.
"So Profound Immortal is the ’Supreme of Death’? Damn! That sounds like a joke; Supreme of Death, just hearing the title, it sounds so classy!"
"Zhao Guanlan: Am I not worthy?"
"So, what about Lin Qiubai, Ye Fengqing, and Zhang Kuang?"
"’Supreme of Sword Dao’, ’Supreme of Time’, ’?? Supreme’."
"Get out of here with the wild guesses!"
"My Lord of the Red Lotus taking the ’Supreme of Life’ isn’t wrong, right? People can even decree the Heavenly Dao!"
"I think ’Sword Master’ sounds more poetic than ’Supreme of Sword Dao’, and besides, what’s the difference between time and time? Isn’t this crashing with that person from the Divine Court?"
"The ’Demonic Child’ is really mysterious, too damn mysterious, it’s been like that since they first arrived on Earth, I feel like my curiosity is about to explode!"
"Can anyone analyze the status of the ’Demonic Child’? X-X starry eyes."
A player with the ID "Prophet’s Lunch Box" spoke, catching Yue Sheng’s attention.
"I got a BUFF! ’Death Blessing’, do you guys have this thing?"
Yue Sheng slightly squinted his eyes, noticing that the player’s teammates also received Zhao Guanlan’s blessing.
Prophet’s Tang Blade: "Got it, the effect is that as long as I’m online, Profound Immortal can use me as an anchor point to lock onto this world’s ’Supreme of Darkness’, and suppress his recovery power to the lowest!"
"But... looking at this BUFF effect, I know what Profound Immortal thinks."
"He has no intention of soloing the ’Supreme of Darkness’, expecting us players to gradually grind him to death..."
"Cowardly yet fierce, that’s indeed very Zhao Guanlan."
Desert Eagle: "Hey? I wouldn’t have noticed if you hadn’t mentioned it! Indeed, there’s this BUFF!"
Zhao Guanlan YYS: "Don’t blabber, just check my ID!"
I Want to Be Emperor: "Zhao Guanlan against three by himself? Damn it! What kind of brain-dead fan are you! You really paint a bad picture for the Profound Immortal! One fan outdoing ten haters, that’s you!"
At this moment, Yue Sheng’s mindset began to change.
In the end, Zhao Guanlan, the "Supreme of Death", had unleashed his might.
That BUFF known as "Death Blessing" spread like a virus among the player community.
One spreads to two, two spreads to four...
Almost in the blink of an eye, all the billion players across the million maps had received the BUFF.
And Yue Sheng suddenly realized—after being split into a million parts, although uninjured, he was imprisoned in the various worlds of "All Heavens OL", his recovery power suppressed to the minimum, and his destructive power also constrained.
Originally, Yue Sheng could pop a planet with a single finger, blow out a star in one breath, and with a single thought, annihilate a stellar cluster.
However...
Within these so-called game worlds designated by "All Heavens OL", under the suppression of the "Death Blessing", he could no longer do any of those.
The suppression from Zhao Guanlan’s supreme origin even prevented him from flipping the table!
"Zhao Guanlan..."
Yue Sheng’s eyes flickered.
This guy, just how much power has he amassed?
What’s backing him, for him to have such depth?
"And this is with Ma Ran keeping his promise, not stepping in."
The "Supreme of Darkness" started to panic a bit: "If ’Supreme of No Position’ goes back on his word, or plays word games to bring in ’Supreme of Devouring’ for help..."
"No."
"That possibility doesn’t exist."
"Although we’re adversaries, I must admit, Ma Ran is a man of his word."
"His strong vanity makes him extremely concerned about his face, and he’s always valued promises, never deceiving enemies lightly."
"Every word Ma Ran says is worth trusting!"
In the blink of an eye, dark waves surged, assimilating all distracting thoughts.
Yue Sheng’s gaze returned to a cold clarity, his thoughts clear.
To protect his companions, even with one in a billion chances of success, he would never easily give up!
Besides, just being at a disadvantage now doesn’t mean failure is imminent.
Even with the indirect constraints from Zhao Guanlan, expecting these billion players in "All Heavens OL" to grind him to death is just a fantasy, a fool’s dream!
