67: Chapter 67 Sixth-Order World, Yin Qi Soars

Su Bai withdrew from the consciousness universe of the arena and opened his eyes.

Outside the window, the neon lights of the provincial capital still flickered, but in his eyes now, they seemed to carry a different meaning.

He lowered his head and looked at the world mark on his wrist.

That grayish-white mark was currently emitting a faint golden halo.

Rank 6.

The Netherworld World had finally been promoted to Rank 6.

Su Bai closed his eyes, and his consciousness sank into the Netherworld World once again.

Grayish-white Yin Qi rushed toward him.

But this time, he felt a difference.

That Yin Qi was denser, purer, and deeper than before. If the previous Yin Qi was like mist, then the current Yin Qi had already begun to transform into a liquid state.

He took a deep breath, and that Yin Qi surged into his consciousness avatar, bringing an indescribable sense of comfort.

Every unit was undergoing changes.

On the Yaksha Wasteland, those skeletons began to tremble slightly, as if they could come back to life at any moment.

In the Crimson Blood Scorched Earth, eerie blood-red crystals began to condense within the flowing lava.

In the Mycelium Deep Forest, those hundred-meter-tall mushrooms were continuing to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye. One hundred and fifty meters, two hundred meters, two hundred and fifty meters... The patterns on the mushroom caps became more complex, as if engraved with some ancient runes.

In the Shadow Demon Abyss, the bodies of those Shadow Demons became more solid, and their eyes changed from grayish-white to a faint silver. Their Space Folding ability became stronger, their teleportation distance further, and their shadow energy purer.

On the Extreme Cold Ice Plains, the wind and snow grew more violent. The bodies of those Ice Crystals became more transparent and harder; their Extreme Cold Domain's range doubled, and the temperature dropped by thirty degrees.

In the Deep Blue Sea Abyss, the concentration of Yin Qi in the seawater increased significantly. The scales of those Naga became darker in color, their speed faster, and their strength greater.

Su Bai stood at the world core, sensing all of this, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.

[World Level Up: Rank 5 → Rank 6]

[Yin Qi Concentration Increase: 800% → 1500%]

[Strength of all Yin-attribute units increased by: 30%]

[All unit skill effects increased by: 20%]

[World Diameter Expansion Condition: Must devour a new world]

30%.

The strength of all ghosts had increased by thirty percent.

What did this mean?

It meant that the Rank 6 of the King of Ghosts was stronger than an ordinary Rank 6.

It meant that ghost heroes like Black and White Impermanence, Ox-Head and Horse-Face, Ghost Bride, Sadako, and the Slit-Mouthed Woman also enjoyed this bonus.

It meant that the combat power of those two thousand-plus Yin Soldiers and the two hundred Soul-Hooking Ghosts had directly soared by a whole level.

Su Bai nodded in satisfaction.

He withdrew his consciousness, stood up, and walked out the door.

It was time to go to the Creators Association.

Provincial Creators Association, War Hall.

Su Bai stood before that familiar operation terminal, his gaze falling on the light screen.

[Remaining Rank 6 Unclaimed Worlds: 5]

Five.

Su Bai discovered that the devour fee for Rank 6 worlds had now become extremely expensive.

This was unavoidable; after all, Rank 6 unclaimed worlds were simply too precious.

The devour fee for a Rank 5 world only cost one million, and any genius who successfully joined the heavenly pride list could have it waived.

But for the fee of a Rank 6 world, no genius had ever chosen to waive it, because besides Su Bai, no one had ever before the end of the heavenly pride list competition—

Raised their world level to Rank 6.

Su Bai's gaze lingered on the fifth name for a long time.

Human Civilization.

Technological Humans.

Three to five million people.

The danger level was only A+.

This combination surprised him somewhat.

[World Name: New Era Realm (Original owner deceased)]

[World Type: Human Civilization (Technology Branch)]

[World Level: Rank 6 (On the verge of collapse)]

[Current Status: After the death of the original Creator, Power Of Faith was cut off and energy was exhausted. This world is a high-tech Human Civilization that developed a complete technology tree, including energy shields, laser weapons, anti-gravity engines, artificial intelligence, etc. Originally, there were about eight million Technological Humans, and more than thirty large cities were established; the civilization development reached the early interstellar era. Due to the loss of Power Of Faith maintenance, the energy system collapsed, the ecosystem disintegrated, and humanity fell into internal strife. Currently, the remaining population is about three to five million, gathered in the last few cities that maintain basic operations.]

[Existing Race: Technological Humans]

[Estimated Quantity: 300]

[Racial Characteristics: Technological Humans are about 1.7-1.9 meters tall, appearing no different from ordinary humans, but they have a large number of biochips and nanobots implanted in their bodies, granting them superb calculation and learning abilities. They rely on technological equipment to survive, and individual strength is weak (generally Rank 1), but with technological weapons, they can exert Rank 3 or even Rank 4 combat power. They possess a complete technological heritage and industrial system; if they can be subdued, the technological level of the Netherworld can be significantly improved.]

[Danger Level: A+ (Large quantity, powerful technological weapons, but individuals are fragile, and there is internal chaos and low organization)]

[Remarks: This race is a rare technology-based Human Civilization; if successfully subdued, it can fill the technological void of the Netherworld.]

Su Bai finished reading the detailed information, deep in thought.

Three to five million humans.

Technological civilization.

Danger level A+.

What did this mean?

It meant that the individual combat power of this world was not strong, but by relying on technological weapons, they could burst forth with combat power far exceeding their own rank.

It meant that this world had a complete industrial system and technological heritage; if it could be subdued, the Netherworld would possess technology-side power for the first time.

It meant that the population of this world was more than ten times the current total population of the Netherworld.

Su Bai took a deep breath.

He raised his hand and entered a command on the operation terminal.
