The Petrification Beast Jargorgon’s Eye had dropped from the Direct Vision Great Sage in the first place. Having the shell Star Priest perform the surgery to transplant it back was not difficult.

When reimplanting the Petrification Demon Eye, Lin Xun had even wanted to transplant the Deep-Sea Cyclops’ Eye, the one that contained Sage Osborn’s Character Law skill, at the same time. But he had received a notification from the cursed game.

The notification said that his Eyeball/Organ Transplant Technique was insufficient. While the transplant could still be done, he would be unable to learn the Character Law skill.

He himself did not mind the Direct Vision Great Sage turning into a Multivision Great Sage. When it came to eyeballs and skills, the more the better. Unfortunately, the Star Priest’s craftsmanship level was not high enough and he had no choice but to give up for now.

[One sage suddenly shouts in terror. He has realized that the Direct Vision Great Sage’s hidden trump card all along actually came from the petrification eyeball of Petrification Beast Jargorgon!]

[Everyone, do not touch the petrified President. As long as we wait for the curse power of the eyeball to subside, the President will be able to return to normal.]

[During the curse period, we absolutely must not let the President suffer any damage. Otherwise…]

[He does not need to finish his sentence. Seeing the statue’s fragility, the other sages all withdraw their hands from the impulse to touch.]

[With the knowledge light wall constructed by the many sages, as long as they maintain the light wall so that you cannot attack the Multivision Great Sage, then once the curse power fades, the Multivision Great Sage will recover.]

[After the sage finishes speaking, he notices several of his colleagues are still continuously attacking you. He hastily reaches out to stop them and shouts loudly…]

[In myth and legend, Petrification Beast Jargorgon is able to continuously accumulate all the damage it has received. When the accumulated damage reaches a critical point, it can unleash the extremely malicious Petrification Curse, turning an enemy into cold and brittle rock in its gaze.]

[Everyone, stop using other spells to attack the envoy frequently. Now let us all cast Endless Flood of Knowledge together!]

[Only a powerful ultimate can shatter the enemy’s defense in one blow and throw him into a near-death state. That will be the best time to lock him into the Thousand Sights Hundred Eyes Formation!]

[As he speaks, he raises his staff and begins chanting a complex and profound incantation.]

[The other sages also join the spell chanting. They combine their strength to amplify the power of Endless Flood of Knowledge and are determined to defeat you in one strike!]

Lin Xun tried attacking twice and found that without the Multivision Great Sage’s support, the enemy’s defensive spell had clearly become much, much more fragile.

From being absolutely impregnable before, it had become something that could be pushed to the verge of shattering after only a few attacks.

Even by pooling the strength of seven sages and constantly drawing energy from the Thousand Sights Hundred Eyes Formation, they could only barely maintain the light wall defense.

But this also meant he was currently unable to use spells to hit the Multivision Great Sage. By the time the Sure-Death Petrification effect wore off, the Multivision Great Sage would recover to normal.

He did not know how long the Sure-Death Petrification state would last, but it would certainly be longer than Imprisoning Petrification.

After all, one was petrification after a successful check, and the other was petrification after a failed check. There was no reason for a successful check to yield a shorter control duration than a failed one.

Now that the enemies had figured out the secret of Petrification Curse, he did not care and instead gave a cold laugh and began pulling out some dirty tricks.

“You think that if you stop hitting me and just barely maintain the magic shield, I’ll have nothing I can do?”

“As long as your numbers drop by one or two more, I don’t believe you can keep that magic shield up!”

[You possess the shell of the Desire Primordial Fire Child of Evil!]

[A robe-wearing Great Sage figure appears behind you…]

[He does not cast offensive spells on the enemy, but instead raises his staff to erect a knowledge light wall around himself.]

[You do not attack the enemy either. Instead, you heft the scarlet greatsword and madly hack away at the Great Sage’s consciousness body behind you…]

[Under your high-frequency attacks, the accumulated damage value for triggering Petrification Curse climbs rapidly!]

[The many sages stare dumbfounded at your crazed actions. Two of them are so stunned that they even slow down their chanting…]

[None of them ever imagined that even without using the enemy’s spells to attack you, you could still accumulate damage by having your own self beat your own ‘self.’]

Lin Xun looked at the continuously rising charge bar and still felt the accumulation speed was not fast enough, so he summoned several summoned creatures to join the attack as well.

Anyway, the mage had a magic shield. Once it was broken, he could just raise another. As long as the mage main body of the bee drone did not take damage, the Bee Queen Child of Evil would naturally not lose HP.

This entire process was equivalent to a self-sufficient perpetual motion charger. After all, the Child of Evil had no stamina limit, and triggering Petrification Curse did not cost mana. It only required accumulated damage.

Under the frenzied attacks of the summoned creatures and the Child of Evil, the Mage’s charge bar quickly filled again.

Lin Xun grinned and triggered Petrification Curse once more!

[The Great Sage’s consciousness body behind you yanks open the robe at his chest, revealing the Petrification Demon Eye embedded in the center of his breastbone.]

[The malicious gaze of the bizarre giant eye stares through the defensive light wall, locking onto that leading sage from before!]

[Mythic+ grade skill Petrification Curse activated!]

[Strength check in progress…]

[That sage is leading everyone in casting Endless Flood of Knowledge at full speed, determined to unleash the spell before you can finish charging again and defeat you.]

[Yet before he can chant to the final stage of the spell, he sees you yank open the front of your robe once more…]

[Knowing that disaster is imminent, he immediately interrupts the spell without hesitation and grabs a completely unprepared colleague beside him, yanking him in front as a shield against the malicious gaze of the curse.]

[…]

[Check successful!]

[The shield sage’s face is full of terror. Before he can even process what is happening, he turns into a stone statue identical to the Multivision Great Sage.]

[At the same time, while the sage group loses another member and the defensive light wall weakens again, you raise the Scarlet King’s Sword high with both hands!]

[Mythic+ grade weapon trait Bloodthirsty Judgement activated!]

[Endless bloodlight erupts, and blood-red radiance pierces the mist to the heavens!]

[You turn into a blood-colored meteor, crossing the far distance in an instant and piercing straight through the sages’ defensive light wall in front of them!]

[Several sages behind the light wall are also swallowed by the surging and brutal bloodlight!]

[You have defeated Knowledge-Seeking Multivision Association Sage. Experience has increased slightly.]

[You have defeated Knowledge-Seeking Multivision Association Sage…]

[You have defeated…]

[You have obtained…]

[When the bloodlight fades, only two figures remain alive on the scene: the Multivision Great Sage’s stone statue you deliberately avoided hitting by using Flesh Authority, and the former leading sage who had dragged his colleague in front of him to take the curse in his stead.]

[Knowing that the situation is hopeless, the leading sage sees the icy killing intent in your eyes and immediately drops to his knees to beg for mercy, hoping you will spare him. He is willing to tell you all the secrets he knows.]

[You give a cold laugh, your gaze still icy…]

[Suddenly, you turn around and rest the scarlet sword edge across the statue’s neck. The stone color and patterns on the Multivision Great Sage’s surface gradually fade away, and in a short while he turns back into flesh and blood.]

[However, as a physically frail knowledge scholar with no defensive spell protection, once such a person is approached by a powerful warrior like you, he has no chance to turn the tables.]

[You have no intention of giving him any such chance. Fully aware that scholars always have a few life-saving trump cards, you do not say a single extra word before drawing the blade across his neck…]

[Blood splatters. The Multivision Great Sage clutches his throat and slowly collapses.]

[You have defeated Knowledge-Seeking Multivision Association Great Sage. Experience has increased greatly.]

[The power within the shell begins to boil. The shell level of Knowledge-Seeking President of the Direct Vision Branch Association Great Sage has risen. Current shell level: 146.]

[You have obtained Transcendent-World Fading Chunk Spirit Essence x1.]

[You have obtained Resplendent Forging Crystal Chunk x1.]

[You have obtained Multivision Branch Association President Badge (item).]

[You have obtained Saint Etienne Imperial Capital Pass (item).]

[You have obtained Route Map of Saint Etienne Imperial Capital (map).]

[You have obtained Thousand Sights Hundred Eyes Formation Main Controller (Special Item).]

[You have obtained Prophecy Book of the Multivision Great Prophet (Document).]

[You look at the fallen shell lying dead on the ground…]

[Shell of the Knowledge-Seeking Multivision Branch Association Great Sage: … Compatibility: 115% (+65%).]

[Will you first possess the shell, or will you first deal with the leading sage at the side?]

Lin Xun had deliberately waited for the petrification effect to end before killing the Multivision Great Sage so as not to damage the shell, in order to obtain the shell’s memories and learn the truth.

However, it now seemed that he had an even clearer and more comprehensive source of information.

[You do nothing to conceal the killing intent in your eyes as you look at the last remaining sage at the side and say…]

[Since you fear death, then tell me everything you know. If you dare utter even half a lie, if what you say differs from the Great Sage’s memories, I will kill you without hesitation!]

[The leading scholar looks at the Great Sage who had stood high above him before the battle and now lies as a cold corpse.]

[His face turns ashen. His lips tremble, and under your forceful gaze, he begins to speak…]
