The sky had become even darker than before, and everyone knew that above the clouds, the Supreme Immortal Tribulation had already descended.
"Battle!!" the Pharaoh roared at the dark clouds from atop his chariot.
Li Changzhou, now devoid of mana, could he possibly be a match for the Pharaoh?
A giant hand tore through the dark clouds, pressing down from above.
The clouds churned across ten thousand miles, the edges of the hand crackling non-stop with loud pops, sparks flying everywhere, the air being shredded, the atmosphere set ablaze.
The gale knocked down the armies of the Netherworld and peeled off layers of the Earth's surface like a knife, uprooting trees that swayed and, with a rustling sound, were torn from the ground to rush towards the sky.
Buildings were about to collapse, the ground shook and mountains swayed; the might of this palm could only be described as utterly overwhelming!
Its aura was sky-high, domineering beyond compare, before this hand, everyone had to bow!
Players live-streaming the scene were also enveloped by the might of this palm, as the live broadcast tumbled like laundry in a washing machine!
All that could be heard was a loud bang, and the dark clouds in the sky slowly dissipated.
Without a surge of qi rushing to the heavens, the Pharaoh had failed.
The players still stared at the live broadcast screen, immersed in the apocalyptic scene, and some of the new immortals fell silent.
Seeing the Pharaoh attempt the Supreme Immortal Tribulation made these successful individuals regret in their hearts why, when Li Changzhou had lost all his mana, could they have passed the third, second-level human tribulations, why not attempt the Supreme Immortal Tribulation?
Even the players who had become immortals and decided to give up the Value Game felt the same emotion.
Who wouldn't want another S-grade skill?
Not entering the Value Game doesn't mean one is absolutely safe in real life!
The dust settled, Egypt City disappeared, and over a million people died, leaving only a handprint on the Earth.
A dam was breached, yet it caused no floods; the torrential flow of water seemed to trickle into the palm imprint, slow as if through a straw.
Chills crawled up everyone's bodies.
The high-ranking members of major forces turned pale, wondering what if, a player in their own country's city were to undergo the Supreme Immortal Tribulation...
◇
It took a full three days for Li Changzhou to pull his thoughts back from the newly formed Black Fog Visualization, and he turned his attention to the white card.
[Name: Black Fog]
[Type: Instinct]
[Quality: Unknown]
[Special Effect: Devour, Grant, Apocalyptic, Kill, Privilege, Seize······]
[Minimum Use Conditions: Li Changzhou]
[Introduction: 1, Devour - Theoretically, can devour everything, also the only means for this instinct to grow;

······]
He was just about to try...
"...Bro, bro, bro, bro!!"
"Are you hiccupping, or calling me?" Li Changzhou looked over.
A diamond-shaped eye was also looking at Li Qianxia and Yang Qinglan.
The diamond-shaped eye still seemed unable to completely cross over space, flickering in and out as if a normal person were drowsing.
[Your Giant Kun True Intent, Yang Snake True Intent have drawn attention!] Guanyin conveyed in his mind, [Fortunately, their mana is weaker than yours, and their Visualization practices have been divided; the Ancient God cannot fully descend. But once Yang Qinglan and your sister step into Earth Immortality and increase their mana, they will surely be perceived by it.]
Li Changzhou stood up, still maintaining the appearance of a seven or eight-year-old child — Guanyin had instructed that it was best to stay like this until he regained his mana.
The cherubic child took two steps and turned into black fog, swirling within the diamond-shaped eye.
The black fog, dragon-like and serpent-like, whirled continuously, but the diamond-shaped eye was like a stain that could not be wiped clean, stubbornly embedded in the void.
Theoretically, the black fog could devour anything, but Li Changzhou was too weak; not to mention time, space, dimensions, he couldn't even devour an eye of an ancient god.
The black fog fell to the ground, and the seven or eight-year-old Li Changzhou walked out from it.
Behind him, the black fog, like a long cloak, flowed back into his body like water.
Finally, the diamond-shaped eye drowsily closed and disappeared into the S-grade 'Honey Pot World'.
"Brother, are we being watched?" Li Qianxia asked.
"I'm watching him too," Li Changzhou replied.
The Turquoise Pool clapped her hands, looking both disdainful and amused.
Yang Qinglan was also smiling.
Who cares about being watched by an ancient god? Face it together with everyone else.

Author's note: I'm so hungry, I'm going to make half a bowl of instant rice, eat it with the fish and frozen fish from the New Year's Eve dinner, watch the New Year special of "Solitary Gourmet," and wish everyone a Happy New Year.
