Chapter 65: World Conquest Battle

Tianren Star, Atlan Empire, Royal Capital, Rear Palace Garden.

An elegant standalone building sat amidst flower fields, with scattered woods and forest paths further beyond. Flocks of birds cleaned their feathers or foraged in the freshwater lake ahead, while several hounds dozed among the flower beds. One of them yawned widely, welcoming the arrival of morning.

This standalone building didn't appear very large from the outside, but upon entering, one would find it actually quite spacious. The first floor housed servants' quarters and the main kitchen, the second floor contained the master bedroom, dining room, banquet hall, study, and so on, while the third floor was off-limits to others—only the owner, the Ninth Princess, and a few trusted maids could enter.

At this moment, inside the washroom.

"Wah lah lah lah, ptooey~"

Wearing pajamas and still drowsy, Molei spat out her mouthwash. The young maid holding the cleaning tray beside her hesitated to speak. If the head maid saw Molei's unrestrained and rude "Wah lah lah lah, ptooey~," she would surely scold her again. Unfortunately, the head maid wasn't present—she had been summoned by the Atlan Emperor, Molei's father, to the front hall of the palace to participate in today's council.

This might seem somewhat strange, but as the head maid qualified to oversee the upbringing of the Ninth Princess, Molei, she must have exceptional qualities. According to rumors, the head maid had once been the director of an orphanage, which later became the infamous "Shrike's Nest" in the Eastern Federation—an assassination organization that left engraved marks on corpses and hung them up after completing kills.

Note that assassination organizations and killer organizations are two different entities. The latter takes money to take lives, keeping a low profile throughout the process. The former accepts commissions to eliminate political enemies, assassinate key figures, or murder nobles and wealthy merchants, and can carry out high-profile assassinations if the employer demands it.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say the head maid had reformed. She held no respect or recognition for the Atlan Empire's royal family, caring only about two people: the current Atlan Emperor, who had spared her life once, and Molei, whom she had watched grow up.

The Atlan Emperor's summons of the head maid was likely due to the signs of Abyss infiltration on Tianren Star. As a secondary real world certified by the Apocalypse Paradise, the Apocalypse Paradise should have intervened. The problem was that this was Abyss infiltration, not an Abyss passage opening. Simply put, it wasn't severe enough to warrant Apocalypse Paradise's intervention—the paradise rarely interfered with the normal operation of the real world.

What was "not severe" for the paradise camp was a catastrophic level for the world's four major powers. Thus, the traditionally hostile four powers—the Eastern Federation, the Northern Alliance, the Archipelago Alliance, and the Atlan Empire—set aside their differences and prepared to cooperate in overcoming this crisis.

The problem was that even with all four powers united, they couldn't handle the Abyss energy infiltration. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many worlds that had fallen into darkness and silence due to Abyss invasion.

The damage caused by Abyss energy infiltration was indeed far less than that of an Abyss invasion, but dealing with infiltration was more difficult. An Abyss invasion created a point or hole—an Abyss passage—while infiltration covered a large area. The sealing method wouldn't work; a filling method was needed, commonly known as "needing more money."

"Your Highness, it's time for breakfast."

The young maid spoke weakly. Hearing this, Molei, who was wiping her face, raised an eyebrow. With the head maid gone, she had to rebel. She firmly stated, "Not eating."

"But the head maid instructed before leaving that I must remind you to eat breakfast."

"Heh~, that's exactly why I'm not eating breakfast."

Satisfied that her rebellious streak had grown by two pounds, Molei felt content. However, as she passed the dining room, the aroma of food made her slow down. But since she had already said she wouldn't eat, she had her pride to maintain.

"You've already prepared breakfast?"

Molei asked in a deep voice, confusing the young maid. Wasn't breakfast made every day? What was the problem?

"Can't waste cooked food."

Having found a graceful way out, Molei strode into the dining room and soon began happily devouring her meal. A moment later, Molei left the building with the young maid, looking at the calm lake and the rising morning sun. She decided she absolutely had to waste the entire day—she would go fishing. It had been so long since she last relaxed like this.

"The weather's nice, let's..."

Molei's words came to an abrupt halt. The young maid, who had been listening, looked at her suspiciously, then turned her head. After staring blankly at an empty spot for a few seconds, her pupils began to contract violently.

"Hel..."

The young maid also disappeared. From the shadows, a combat maid trained by the head maid appeared instantly. She pressed one hand on the spot where Molei had vanished. Though her mental state was nearly shattered, her gaze behind the mask remained calm.

Thump~

A shockwave spread, and the combat maid also disappeared. It seemed that after multiple kidnappings of Youyou Na on Blazing Sun Star, Su Xiao's team had improved their kidnapping proficiency.

The Lord's Train traveled through an alternate space, invisible to the outside world. Inside the train, it felt like traveling through open wilderness, with pleasant scenery.

A tall figure and a stout figure, wielding a hammer and a boning knife respectively, stared menacingly at Molei and the two maids behind her, who were also tied up like dumplings.

"Pulu Yemu, suwa (Some dialect from the Void)."

"?"

Molei looked confused, but she knew the situation was bad. The tall and stout figures exchanged glances. The stout figure pulled out a writing board and scribbled on it:

"Hand over 100,000,000 Soul Coins, and we'll spare your dog life."

For some reason, when writing "dog life," the lower half of the stout figure's body twitched slightly, as if protesting something. The term "dog life" wasn't referring to Molei at all—it was aimed at someone else.

"Uh~, I used all my coins to upgrade abilities. I only have 30 Soul Coins left in my bag."

Hearing this, the tall figure and stout figure exchanged glances. The stout figure nodded, indicating that 30 Soul Coins would do. This left Molei stunned again. She looked the stout figure up and down, then glanced around at the vaguely familiar environment. Looking past him, she said:

"Bai Ye, what are you doing here?"

Molei's words caused the stout figure to panic and flail.

"Woo ao (This was Baha's idea)."

"Woo miao (This was Baha's idea)."

"Damn it."

Baha looked toward the bedroom door deeper in the train, only to find it hadn't opened. Molei had tricked him. As for kidnapping Molei, it was indeed Su Xiao's instruction to facilitate subsequent matters. After all, the infamous Law-Destroying Shadow, Kukulin Bai Ye, inviting the Atlan Empire's Ninth Princess would put too much strain on the royal family's hearts.

The subsequent extortion was Baha's bad idea. Besides, if they really wanted to extort, they wouldn't have asked for 100 million Soul Coins.

"Ladies, rest assured. We're friends of your young lady, Molei. That was just a joke. Now, be good and look here."

Baha brought out a Soul Light Stun Device, developed based on the memory erasers from movies. Its principle was to stimulate the soul through oscillation, causing short-term memory blur.

Bang~

A flash of light passed, and the two maids fainted one after another. Baha looked at the unconscious combat maid leaning against the wall and smiled. It signaled to Amu, who stepped forward and delivered a physical sleep-inducing punch. The combat maid had been mentally rehearsing how to counterattack, but the gap in strength was too great.

Seeing this, Molei felt both pained and helpless. She couldn't let these two tails follow her for subsequent matters. She looked around the train's interior and said to the approaching Su Xiao:

"Bai Ye, with such a nice train, aren't you planning to decorate it properly?"

"Oh."

"I know a professional in this field. It's no exaggeration to say they rank in the top five in the Star Realm."

While settling the two young maids, Molei spoke with a confident smile.

Baha was a bit skeptical. "Really?"

"Of course. Don't forget, I'm one of the shareholders of the Netherworld Bank, even if I only hold 0.012% of the shares."

Molei's words were perfectly accurate. Holding shares in the Netherworld Bank, which ranked fourth in financial power across the entire Star Realm, came with dividend distributions and other shareholder benefits.

"I estimate that redesigning and decorating this train would cost 500,000 Soul Coins. Don't think it's expensive. Once you see the finished product, you'll know how worth it that 500,000 Soul Coins was."

As she spoke, Molei almost couldn't suppress the smile blooming on her face. How long had it been? She was finally seeing some return on investment from Bai Ye. Even if she only earned 1 Soul Coin in commission this time, it would have entirely different significance.

"Alright."

"You agreed? No bargaining?"

"No."

"Well, well, it could actually be a bit cheaper. I have a good relationship with that workshop. They buy rare gems from me."

"No need."

"Since you insist, fine. I'll contact them now. So... hand over the Soul Coins."

Molei held out her hand, indicating she needed the Soul Wall Savings Card.

"I'll help solve this world's Abyss infiltration signs. 500,000 Soul Coins."

"Uh~"

Molei was stunned. After a few seconds of contemplation, she could only nod. But then she asked, "Is solving the Abyss infiltration signs here very difficult?"

"Mm."

"What needs to be prepared?"

"..."

Su Xiao produced a list. After reviewing it, Molei grimaced and said, "The materials aren't expensive, but they're all very hard to obtain..."

Before Molei could finish, Baha interrupted, "Molei, saving the world is such a glorious deed. How could you forget your friends?"

"Right! How could I forget those two? We must share the blessings."

Molei's eyes became lively. She took out a communicator and dialed Yueshitu's number. When it connected, she cleared her throat and asked mysteriously:

"Is the freshly made pudding round?"

"Not round."

The voice of Yueshitu on the other end was equally mysterious. This was a code exchange. As for why they used code, knowing that a certain Hunter could enter Tianren Star, the Apocalypse Three Sisters had made this decision, agreeing that for the sake of their friendship, no one would fish for anyone else.

"Why isn't the pudding round?"

"Because I took a bite."

"Code correct. Moon Rabbit, want to come out and play?"

"No way. I'm fine playing games at home. I recently bought a lot of new games."

"I got three tickets to Star City. They expire the day after tomorrow."

"I'll be right there."

Hearing this, Molei hung up. She then dialed Hao Mei's number. After exchanging codes, she said, "I stole a bottle of good wine from my father. Let's finish it together."

"Wait for me 10 minutes. I'll be there."

This time, Hao Mei hung up first. After ending the call, Molei sighed and murmured, "Ah~, my conscience hurts so much. These are my dear friends, like family to me."

With that, she took the iced honey lemon tea handed to her by Bubu Wang, took a big gulp, and her conscience immediately stopped hurting.

Su Xiao sat down and took out the key to the Lord's Train. The current strength of the Lord's Train was simply absurd.

Su Xiao handed the Lord's Train key to Molei. Molei promised that before Su Xiao left this world, her friend would complete the design and decoration of the train's interior.

An hour later, on the train seats, Yueshitu and Hao Mei sat on either side of Molei, their blazing eyes fixed on her. Hadn't they agreed to use code to protect their friendship?

"Don't look at me like that, you two. Tricking you out this time... ah no, inviting you out, was to save the world."

"?"

"How much have you had to drink?"

"I'm serious. I really want to save our hometown, Tianren Star. Have you two forgotten about the Abyss infiltration signs I told you about?"

"No, we haven't. So? Isn't this something the Apocalypse Paradise will handle?"

Yueshitu spoke innocently. Was Yueshitu just too lazy? Of course not.

If one only looked at Su Xiao's experiences in the late stages, they would think the Abyss was so common and close. The truth was, even in the late stages, for 90% of contractors, the Abyss was rarely encountered and was avoided as much as possible. Before entering a world, they would spend a large number of Soul Coins or a small amount of Space-Time Power to check the "Abyss Erosion Degree" of the world they were about to enter.

For ninth-rank contractors, worlds with an "Abyss Erosion Degree" exceeding 0.0015% were best avoided. For Absolute Strength contractors, if the degree exceeded 0.19%, it was better not to enter. The Space-Time Power they had saved up was precisely for checking the "Abyss Erosion Degree" of the world they were about to enter, and if it was too high, to pay a certain amount of Space-Time Power to randomly select another late-stage world.

With the certification of the six paradise camps plus the Void Tree, even in the late stages, there were still plenty of worlds to enter.

So, what were the "Abyss Erosion Degrees" of the worlds Su Xiao had previously entered? The answer was:

Gloomy Continent (Root · Dead Silence City): Abyss Erosion Degree 26.85%.
Shadow World (Revenge Bounty): Abyss Erosion Degree 5.66%.
Wind Sea Continent: Abyss Erosion Degree 69.93%.
Eternal Light World: Abyss Erosion Degree 0%.
Witch Realm: Abyss Erosion Degree 57.53%.
Blazing Sun Star: Abyss Erosion Degree 65.6%.

Entering worlds with such "Abyss Erosion Degrees," it was no wonder that Abyss invasion-derived environments, Abyss creatures, and entities were so common.

This also meant that, to this day, Su Xiao had no idea what the function of consuming Space-Time Power to check the "Abyss Erosion Degree" of the world he was about to enter actually was.

After Molei introduced the Abyss infiltration signs, Yueshitu and Hao Mei exchanged glances, then looked at Molei. Their eyes conveyed the meaning: The Apocalypse Paradise had quite a few Absolute Strength contractors, and even Supreme contractors. They could all return to Tianren Star. Why not wait for these big shots to handle it? If they couldn't, then seeking help from professionals would be even better, right?

Molei naturally understood her two close friends' meaning. She almost burst into tears and signaled with her eyes, roughly meaning: 'Do you think I want to be here? I was kidnapped. Being tricked or kidnapped—obviously, the former has a better experience. If I were kidnapped, that orange bag was mysteriously tough.'

At this point, the Apocalypse Three Sisters began exchanging glances, with the following content:

Molei: 'Stabilize first. The three of us will wait for an opportunity to escape.'
Yueshitu: 'You tricked us both here. Was that your purpose?'
Hao Mei: 'Definitely. Molei, if there's anything good, you never forget us, but you also drag us into trouble.'
Baha: 'Such pure friendship.'
Hao Mei: 'Of course.'
Yueshitu: 'Hehe.'
Molei: 'Must be pure friendship.'

The Apocalypse Three Sisters felt satisfied for a moment, then realized something strange had joined their eye-chat group and spoken.

After some deep thought, Yueshitu and Hao Mei firmly refused, saying they would only agree if absolutely necessary.

Seeing that Yueshitu and Hao Mei were unwilling to save the world, Su Xiao took out the sheathed Dragon-Slaying Flash. Drawing the long blade, he first pressed it against Hao Mei's neck. Hao Mei smiled disdainfully and declared that saving their hometown was her duty!

Su Xiao looked at Yueshitu. Yueshitu hesitated but eventually agreed. And so, the most bizarre scene of world-saving unfolded: Molei, Yueshitu, and Hao Mei were forced to save the world. This "forced" was not modesty or implication—it was physically forced.

After willingly signing a contract, the Apocalypse Three Sisters left with the Lord's Train key. The contract's content was both dangerous and had room for maneuver.

However, the Apocalypse Three Sisters didn't know that this contract was actually fake. Drafting such a contract required rare materials plus a large sum of Soul Coins. Moreover, whether the contract was real or not didn't matter. As long as the Apocalypse Three Sisters believed it was real, the contract was perfectly fine.

Ahead lay the Abyss infiltration zone. The sky was leaden gray, and the vegetation on the ground was overly lush. Some trees were so thick in trunk that they looked like tree balls with branches. Another issue was that this area had been sealed off by the world's four major powers.

Su Xiao took off his coat, pulled up his right sleeve, and wrapped a sealing medium around his arm. As the medium melted, his entire left arm turned scarlet, covered in dark golden patterns. He reached out with one hand, and a lock plate appeared. The Abyss infiltration here was not a coincidence—it had existed for a long time, but someone with great mastery of Abyss studies had used sealing methods.

Click, click, click~

Su Xiao turned the lock plate. The sky wall formed by black mist immediately expanded. The sky instantly turned pitch black, and various types of vegetation on the ground burst one after another.

"Roar!!"

The roar of a giant beast from the Abyss near zone came through the gauze-like elemental boundary wall. This drastic change made the various legions and fleets stationed here extremely nervous, forcing them to retreat to avoid being enveloped by the surging black mist.

Su Xiao walked into the black mist. He was deliberately accelerating the degree of dark infiltration, both as a prerequisite for solving the Abyss infiltration and to avoid explaining various reasons to the local forces. In terms of time cost, gaining the trust of the four major powers > explaining clearly > killing everyone > letting the dark erosion spread further to force the stationed legions to retreat.

Walking in the black mist, the Demon Spirit detached from Dragon-Slaying Flash and floated behind Su Xiao. He was very skilled at dealing with Abyss creatures, but for those Abyss entities without physical form, without souls, and not part of an energy system, the Demon Spirit's attacks were more targeted.

Before coming to Tianren Star this time, Su Xiao had planned to first complete the transaction with the Divine Emperor Adventure Group. Unfortunately, with the current World Conquest Battle approaching, all of the Divine Emperor Adventure Group's resources and finances had been invested in improving combat power. The wool that had been saved up for a long time suddenly had little value to shear. The good news was that if the Divine Emperor Adventure Group returned victorious this time, the resources they had invested would be recovered many times over, meaning the wool would be super-doubled.

Arriving at the center of the Abyss infiltration, the surrounding world had irregularly shaped holes. Su Xiao took out a Soul Crystal as the core of the formation. With the assistance of Bubu Wang, Amu, Baha, and Beini, a shelter zone with a diameter of 100 meters appeared.

Crack, crack, crack~

A crystal seat formed behind Su Xiao. After sitting down, he took out the Mysterious Eye and adjusted it like twisting a Rubik's Cube, trying to see if a new combination would appear.

Time passed gradually. After two days of attempting to unlock the Mysterious Eye and meditating, when the timing was about right, Su Xiao activated the spatial formation. However, since Molei, Yueshitu, and Hao Mei had strongly insisted on using an ordinary spatial formation, he didn't set up the "Law-Destroying Teleportation Array" this time.

The spatial fluctuations subsided, and Molei and the others appeared. Molei patted the large sealed box beside her and said, "The materials you wanted are gathered. Let's begin."

"..."

Su Xiao opened the sealed box and, along with Bubu Wang, Amu, Baha, and Beini, began working again. After nearly three days of setup, he finally completed a large formation.

"So it was this complicated."

Molei covered one eye as she looked at the formation on the ground. The reason was that looking at these formations with both eyes would cause a strong dizziness that felt like her soul was being twisted.

Su Xiao crouched at the center of the formation. He took out a piece of rotten yet strangely fragrant meat. As he clenched his hand, dark red juice squeezed out of the meat. Before the drops could hit the ground, they evaporated in midair, turning into light red smoke that was absorbed by the nearby dark holes.

Zii~

A strange insect chirping sound came, as if a small snake-like black insect was slithering through the nearby black mist. It moved extremely fast, and various barriers and techniques were completely ineffective against it.

Su Xiao released the bait in his hand and slowly backed away. When he was more than ten meters away, the Abyss creature named "Hungry Centipede" emerged from the dark hole, burrowed into the meat, and greedily gnawed and drilled.

Su Xiao reached out with one hand and activated the trap set up around him. The metal sealing box, which split into six sides and then closed again, trapped the "Hungry Centipede" inside. But the "Hungry Centipede" didn't care and continued gnawing on the rotten spirit flesh it was gripping.

Su Xiao rushed forward. Amu, who had been waiting at the edge of the formation, threw over a heated, semi-sealed crucible. After catching it, Su Xiao poured the "1056 Liquid Metal," which was molten "Dark Gold Ore," onto the metal sealing box. Ignoring the high heat, he threw it into the cooling liquid.

Hiss~!

Cold mist rose. The dark gold on the surface of the metal sealing box cooled and hardened. Only then did the "Abyss Creature · Hungry Centipede" inside realize something was wrong. It frantically crashed inside, but it was already meaningless.

Was the "Hungry Centipede" of low intelligence? This creature's wisdom and cunning had caused countless people to grit their teeth in frustration. It was simply too confident, believing that nothing in the myriad worlds could trap it.

The "Hungry Centipede" was an extremely difficult Abyss creature to imprison. It was harmless to living beings, timid, and afraid of light. It could even burrow into spatial gaps, drill through elemental boundary layers, and emerge from the cracks of sealing techniques, as easily as if it were instinct.

However, very few factions would attempt to capture the Hungry Centipede. It had a characteristic: it loved to steal and eat precious trees. The Black Maple Tree was its favorite, but it was a greedy little thing. After quickly consuming 5 to 7 times its body volume in Black Maple Tree yield, it would enter a state similar to indigestion.

In this state, its body surface secreted a "grease-like substance," which was an irreplaceable main material for concocting "Soul Life Secret Medicine."

The effect of "Soul Life Secret Medicine" was that when one's primordial life force was about to completely wither, drinking it would extend life by at least a thousand years. Such a secret medicine was priceless for the Supreme old immortals in the Void and the highest-tier worlds.

Especially for families that relied on a single powerful old immortal to hold things together, compared to the family being wiped out by enemies after the old immortal's death, spending half the family fortune to buy a bottle of "Soul Life Secret Medicine" was worth it.

Putting away the sealed box containing the "Hungry Centipede," Su Xiao let out a long breath. A single mistake this time would have made all preparations come to nothing.

"Is this... done? But the Abyss infiltration signs don't seem to have receded?"

Molei looked around and spoke uncertainly, as she knew very little about Abyss studies.

"..."

Su Xiao gestured for Molei to come forward. When she did, he took out a crystal bottle containing pure blue liquid and said:

"Form a team with those two, then smash it."

"Form a team?"

Molei asked even as she sent team invitations to Yueshitu and Hao Mei.

"Your Apocalypse Paradise reputation will increase significantly."

"Really?"

"I never lie."

"You're lying to me again?!"

Molei's eyes widened. Su Xiao didn't speak, just stared at Molei. After a moment, Molei reluctantly said, "Fine, I believe you never lie. So what do I do next?"

"Smash."

"Alright."

Molei smashed the crystal bottle at her feet. With a bang, cheerful elements scattered. In a very short time, the surrounding black holes were filled and repaired. The darkness in the sky faded, and the twisted vegetation on the ground withered and dissipated. However, after being nourished by Abyss energy, the resource output of this area would definitely skyrocket.

"This change is... too fast."

Molei looked around in surprise and delight. The continuously increasing Apocalypse Paradise reputation made her already sweet mood even more radiant.

"But Bai Ye, I have a feeling that all your previous setup was for something else. Only this last smash was for solving the Abyss infiltration signs."

Molei scratched her pink short hair as she spoke. It had to be said that her intuition was really accurate. Su Xiao's series of operations earlier couldn't be said to be completely unrelated to solving the infiltration signs, but they were definitely not closely related. They were mainly for capturing the "Hungry Centipede."

Why did solving this Abyss infiltration seem so easy? The "Top-Tier Abyss Studies" that Su Xiao had mastered was no joke. It had cost a total of 60,000 ounces of Space-Time Power to upgrade this ability. If dealing with an Abyss infiltration sign required special effort, then the cost and gain would be completely disproportionate.

"That's just your illusion."

"No, you definitely tricked me again. You're just taking advantage of my lack of Abyss knowledge."

"Not at all."

"Definitely."

"..."

Su Xiao stopped walking, turned his head, and looked directly into Molei's eyes. The familiar feeling of about to be beaten made Molei change her tone: "I believe you, Bai Ye."

"..."

Su Xiao continued walking, followed by a muttering Molei. At that moment, Su Xiao received a series of notifications:

[Tip: Your stay in this world is about to end.]
