Chapter 172: Chapter 160: This World Has No Place for Him

"Of course, that’s very difficult." Bai Xianyi shook her head as she continued, "In this world, a single region can only have one King. A new one can’t be born until the old is destroyed. But as for a King Deity... who could possibly destroy one?"

"Tell... me... the... other... methods..."

"According to the information I have, besides the three standard types of Divine—Metamorphosis, Spirit Transformation, and King—there are at least three variant types: Incarnation, Celestial Calamity, and Destiny!"

"The first type is the Incarnation Divine. It belongs to the ecosystem yet is also independent of it. It has no territory and can travel anywhere. In essence, it’s an independent life form. If you can mutate into an Incarnation Divine, you shouldn’t have any major problems."

"As for the Celestial Calamity Divine and Destiny Divine, I don’t have much information, but it’s clear they can exist independently of the original ecosystem and possess their own Will!"

Bai Xianyi closed the book in her hand and said in a low voice, "You don’t have to be discouraged. I will do my best to help you become a King Deity or an Incarnation Divine. In the future, we will definitely be able to return to our original world safely..."

Just then, a speck of red light, like a drop of blood, suddenly materialized inside the carriage and shot into the space between Wei Shenming’s eyebrows.

Wei Shenming’s eyes bulged as a red mist abruptly erupted from his body. He let out a pained roar.

"Huh?"

Bai Xianyi was shocked. Her eyes flew wide as she saw Wei Shenming’s status information suddenly change.

[Wei Shenming · Incarnation Divine · Earth Vine Dragon]!

"Someone... issued me a command... to kill the Player Wang Yi. I... I’ve received a message from the eco-network. He’s not far from here. This is a good opportunity. I must complete the mission..."

Wei Shenming shot to his feet, threw open the airship’s cabin door, and, from a height of one hundred meters, brazenly jumped out.

"Wei Shenming!"

Bai Xianyi shouted. She looked down and saw Wei Shenming land safely. He was completely unharmed and immediately started running into the distance. At the same time, his body was rapidly changing, and in a matter of breaths, he had transformed into a giant lizard-like monster covered in tentacle-like vines.

’He mutated into an Incarnation Divine? What’s going on?’

Bai Xianyi frowned but immediately turned the auto-piloted Steam Airship around to chase after Wei Shenming.

At the same time, many other red specks of light appeared out of thin air all over the world, flying into the bodies of Earth Deities or Wood Knot Monsters, causing them to rapidly evolve or mutate. Simultaneously, they all received the command issued by the Eco-Dominator, Jiya.

Among them were Wood Knot Monsters or Eco-Divine that happened to be possessed and controlled by Sufferers, but most were native Divine.

And so, a hunt for Wang Yi quickly erupted, escalated, and spread throughout the eco-network. Numerous high-level Divine, King Deities, and Incarnation Divine locked onto Wang Yi’s position and began racing toward him.

In the main camp of the Dongsheng Prince Mansion, Xue Shentian had just returned to his tent. Before he could even take a sip of tea, a golden light flashed before him, and an Intelligence Scroll materialized out of thin air.

’My entire army is back in camp. There’s still new intelligence?’

Xue Shentian unhurriedly opened the Intelligence Scroll. With a single glance, his expression immediately turned grim.

====

Intelligence 1: The Eco-source Body has issued a kill mission via the eco-network for a Player surnamed Wang. This Player recently destroyed the King Deity Liu Nan and is currently located in the ruins of Kun City!

Intelligence 2: To eliminate the Player surnamed Wang, the Eco-source Body has used Eco-Power to create two Sub-Kings and four Incarnation Divine with King-level combat power. Simultaneously, it has issued direct orders to 16 King Deities and 184 Spirit Transformation Deities. The eco-army is massing; a world-class operation to kill the Player surnamed Wang is now underway!

Intelligence 3: The Incarnation Divine, Iron Sword Immortal, has been deployed!

Intelligence 10: The Player surnamed Wang is about to arrive at the A22 ruin in the old district of Kun City and seems completely unaware of the imminent ecological slaughter.

"Holy shit!" Xue Shentian exclaimed. "Wang Shanhe has brought a heavenly punishment upon himself! Is the whole world going to hunt him down? He’s a dead man, absolutely dead! There’s no place left for him in this world!"

He paced a few steps, then slammed his fist and shouted, "Men! Order the entire army to break camp! We’re evacuating this area, effective immediately!"

Before long, Li Mingli rushed into the tent, frowning. "My Prince, what’s happened? Why order the army to break camp?"

"It’s a matter of extreme urgency! The slightest delay could bring disaster upon us!"

"What do you mean? Our deal for the Fasting Pills with Wang Shanhe isn’t finished yet!"

"Finished my ass! We need to get away from him! He’s a public enemy of the ecosystem, wanted worldwide! A massive eco-army is coming to destroy him. If we’re close to him, we’ll get caught in the crossfire. We have to run, get far away from him, and not a moment to lose!"

"Is it really that serious?"

"Would I lie to you?" As he spoke, Xue Shentian tossed the Intelligence Scroll to Li Mingli. "See for yourself!"

Li Mingli’s expression also turned grim as he looked at the scroll. "Wang Shanhe has no idea what’s coming for him. This time, I’m afraid he’s really done for!"

Xue Shentian said, "We need to run, now. Get away from Wang Shanhe, get away from Kun City, so we don’t get caught in the fallout. We can’t have any more to do with him!"

Li Mingli nodded. "Every man for himself when disaster strikes. I suppose this is our only choice..."

At this very moment, in the ruins of Kun City, the small train stopped at the entrance to the A22 ruin.

The Galaxy Airship also landed.

Wang Yi stepped out of the airship. He was, of course, still unaware that the Source Body had issued a kill mission for him. With a calm expression, he faced the crowd of Soldiers pouring out of the small train and shouted, "Everyone, into the ruin! Move the supplies!"

Inside the A22 ruin, the Dogman God, Ji Liangren, had been waiting for some time. He felt a wave of complex emotions as he watched the crowd of Octagonal Cage Soldiers and a purple-skinned Beastman Lady pour into the ruin.

’Not long ago, I was a key member of the West Continent Player Alliance. And it was Wang Yi and these very Soldiers who crushed us. Some of these Soldiers are experts with absurd combat power. But now, I’m on their side.’

’I’ve betrayed the Western Continent. From now on, I answer to the boss, so I guess I’ll have to make my way on the Eastern Continent. But there’s no Dogman Temple here, no Giant Dragon Divine Hall, no Atlantian Hero Association... I probably won’t be able to pick up any identity-specific quests. That’s bound to slow down my progress...’

Ji Liangren thought to himself.

Just then, Wang Yi came over to Ji Liangren’s side, clapped him on the shoulder, and said, "Dog Head, you’re in luck. I can give your power a rapid boost. Do you dare fight a higher-dimensional being with me?"

Wang Yi had previously gotten an Enhance +3 Realm-Breaking Pill from a blind box.

This pill could only be consumed by Adventurer Players. After taking it, the user would instantly advance 4 to 8 minor realms.

Currently, the only Adventurer Player under Wang Yi’s command was Ji Liangren. ’Guess it’s his lucky day,’ Wang Yi thought.

"Huh? A higher-dimensional being?"

Ji Liangren clearly had no idea what was going on.

Wang Yi said, "I’m about to have a final showdown with a world boss. I have to try everything that can increase our combat power. You can be my helper and charge into the fray!"

"Me? No way! The only thing I can transform into is a harmless little puppy!" Ji Liangren waved his hands frantically. "I can shoot from the back, though, that’s about it!"

But Wang Yi just took out the fist-sized, Enhance +3 [Realm-Breaking Pill] and said, "I’m giving you a great opportunity. Swallow this treasure pill and let’s see what your power becomes!"
