Chapter 27: The Battle to Seal the Sirius Rift! A Level VI Civilization's Vanguard Descends!
In the orbit of Planet B in the Sirius Star System.
One hundred thousand warships were lined up in neat formation, and one million players entered a state of combat readiness.
Lin Feng stood on the flagship command vessel, staring at the projection of the rift at the heart of the star system.
It was a pitch-black rift a thousand kilometers wide, emitting an eerie purple glow. Inside the rift, countless twisted shadows were writhing, as if something were trying to break through.
[Sirius Rift Projection]
Scale: 30% of the Main Rift
Infiltration Level: 18% (Rising)
Estimated Full Infiltration: 28 Days
"The infiltration level has already risen to 18%..." Li Xue said nervously. "We must begin the sealing process immediately!"
Lin Feng nodded:
"System, initiate the sealing procedure!"
[Sealing Procedure Initiated]
[Consuming Divine Artifact Fragment: Star Blade Core]
[Required Players: 100,000]
[Sealing Time: 72 Hours]
[During the sealing period, the rift will release Level 6 Civilization signal attacks]
[Warning: Players must not leave a 100-kilometer radius around the rift during the sealing period]
[Warning: If the number of players falls below 50,000, the sealing will fail]
Lin Feng took a deep breath:
"All players, hear my command!"
"The sealing procedure has begun. We need to hold our ground for 72 hours!"
"During this time, signals from a Level 6 Civilization will attack us!"
"But—we cannot back down!"
"Because what we are protecting is the future of Earth Civilization!"
One million players roared in unison:
"Protect Earth!"
"Never back down!"
"Seal the rift!"
The sealing began.
The first hour.
A golden curtain of light appeared around the rift, enveloping the 100,000 warships and one million players within it.
Lin Feng felt an eerie sense of oppression permeating the air.
"It's coming," he whispered.
Suddenly, countless pitch-black shadows surged out from the rift!
Those shadows were humanoid in shape but over ten meters tall. Their bodies were composed of pure black energy, and they had no facial features save for two glowing eyes.
[Level 6 Civilization signal materialization detected]
[Codename: Void Walker]
[Quantity: 10,000]
[Strength: Peak level 4 civilization]
"Peak level 4 civilization?!" Li Xue exclaimed. "This is just the signal materializing?!"
Lin Feng gripped the blade of void termination and said coldly:
"A signal from a Level 6 Civilization alone can create enemies at the peak of a level 4 civilization..."
"Just how strong is a true Level 6 Civilization?"
He had no time for further thought, as the Void Walkers were already charging toward them!
"All fleets, open fire!"
One hundred thousand warships fired simultaneously, energy beams pouring down like rain.
But when the Void Walkers were hit, their bodies merely distorted for a moment before they continued their charge!
"Energy attacks are ineffective?!" Tian Jian said in shock.
Lin Feng's gaze sharpened:
"They are the materialization of a Level 6 Civilization's signal; ordinary energy attacks cannot harm them!"
"Let me handle this!"
His figure blurred, turning into a black stream of light as he charged toward the Void Walkers.
The blade of void termination slashed down—
A pitch-black sword light flashed across, and the Void Walker in front was instantly sliced in half before dissipating!
[Void Walker Slain ×1]
[Experience Gained: +10,000]
"It's effective!" Lin Feng sneered. "Divine artifacts can harm them!"
He unfurled the Wings of Void Termination, weaving through the battlefield at a thousand times the speed of sound.
One second, ten slashes.
Ten seconds, a hundred slashes.
One minute, six hundred slashes.
The Void Walkers were being harvested frantically by Lin Feng, and his experience points were skyrocketing.
But he knew this was only the beginning.
The twelfth hour.
The first wave of Void Walkers was completely annihilated.
But even more enemies surged out from the rift!
[Second wave of Void Walkers detected]
[Quantity: 50,000]
[Strength: Peak level 4 civilization]
"The numbers have increased?!" Li Xue cried out.
Lin Feng's brow furrowed:
"The Level 6 Civilization is testing our strength..."
"The subsequent attacks will only get stronger."
He looked back at the players behind him and noticed that many had already exhausted half of their stamina.
"I must get more players involved in the battle."
He opened the system interface:
"System, unlock the Server-Wide Support function!"
[Server-Wide Support function unlocked]
[All players can now enter the Sirius Star System via the interstellar portal to join the battle]
Lin Feng immediately issued a server-wide announcement:
"All players, hear my command! The Sirius Rift Sealing Battle needs reinforcements!"
"Those willing to fight, head to the interstellar portal immediately!"
"We need more hands!"
After the announcement was issued, long queues instantly formed in front of Earth's interstellar portals.
Countless players flooded into the Sirius Star System to support the sealing battle.
The twenty-fourth hour.
The number of players increased to two million.
But the number of Void Walkers was also increasing—
[Third wave of Void Walkers detected]
[Quantity: 100,000]
[Strength: Peak level 4 civilization]
Lin Feng looked at the densely packed Void Walkers and took a deep breath.
"The Time Still Domain has already been used..."
"I can only fight it out head-on."
He raised the blade of void termination and activated the set bonus effect:
"Termination Domain!"
[Set Effect Activated: Termination Domain]
[Effect: All enemy attributes within a 100-kilometer radius reduced by 50%]
The black domain expanded, and the speed and attack power of the Void Walkers were instantly cut in half!
"All players, attack with everything you've got!" Lin Feng roared.
Two million players released their skills simultaneously, and various energy attacks surged toward the Void Walkers like a tide.
Lin Feng continued his harvest, killing dozens every second.
Experience points grew frantically—
[Experience +100,000]
[Experience +100,000]
[Experience +100,000]
...
[Congratulations, player level has increased to Lv.205]
The forty-eighth hour.
Sealing Progress: 67%.
But suddenly, completely different enemies emerged from the rift!
[Warning! Level 6 Civilization elite signal detected]
[Codename: Void Lord · Projection]
[Quantity: 10]
[Strength: Early Level 5 Civilization]
Lin Feng's pupils constricted.
Level 5 Civilization?!
The rift had projected Level 5 Civilization enemies?!
"Is this the power of a Level 6 Civilization..." he muttered. "Just a projection can create Level 5 Civilization enemies."
The Void Lord Projections were over a hundred meters tall, their bodies made of pure void energy, emitting a terrifying pressure.
"Lin Feng!" Li Xue shouted in terror. "Our warships can't fight a Level 5 Civilization!"
Lin Feng gripped the blade of void termination:
"I'll handle them."
"You guys, hold off the other Void Walkers!"
His figure blurred as he charged toward the nearest Void Lord Projection.
"Final Void Slash!"
The black sword light slashed toward the Void Lord, but—
The Void Lord raised a hand and waved it, easily blocking the sword light!
"What?!" Lin Feng was shocked.
The Void Lord spoke in a low voice:
"Lin Feng, the Civilization Terminator."
"The Level 6 Civilization has taken notice of you."
"You are a dangerous variable."
"Therefore, we will descend ahead of schedule."
"The rift... will open completely in three days."
Lin Feng's heart jolted:
"Three days?! Wasn't it supposed to be 28 days?!"
The Void Lord sneered:
"Because of your existence, the expansion of the rift has accelerated."
"The Level 6 Civilization has decided to descend early."
"Prepare to welcome your doom."
Lin Feng roared:
"I won't let you have your way!"
"Time Reversal!"
[Skill Activated: Time Reversal]
[Effect: Reverses time in a localized area by 5 minutes]
[Target: Around the rift]
Time began to flow backward.
The attacks of the Void Lord Projections were rolled back, and Lin Feng took the opportunity to release his strongest attack:
"Civilization Termination · Final Strike!"
All his power gathered into the blade of void termination, and a black pillar of light slashed straight at the Void Lord!
Boom!!!
The first Void Lord Projection was crushed, dissipating into countless points of light!
[Void Lord Projection Slain ×1]
[Experience Gained: +50,000,000]
[Obtained Divine Artifact Fragment: Void Core]
"It works!" Lin Feng continued his assault.
But once the effect of Time Reversal ended, the other nine Void Lord Projections attacked him simultaneously!
"Damn it..."
Lin Feng did his best to resist, but with nine Level 5 Civilization enemies attacking at once, even he couldn't handle it perfectly.
"Lin Feng!" Tian Jian rushed over with dozens of core players. "We'll help you!"
Countless player skills were released at once, sharing the pressure for Lin Feng.
Lin Feng seized the opportunity, continuously releasing Final Void Slashes.
One slash, one kill.
Ten slashes, ten kills.
Finally—
[Void Lord Projection Slain ×10]
[Experience Gained: +500,000,000]
[Obtained Divine Artifact Fragment: Void Core ×10]
[Congratulations, player level has increased to Lv.230]
The seventy-second hour.
Sealing Progress: 99%.
The rift vibrated violently, as if resisting the seal.
Lin Feng went all out with his output, repelling the final wave of Void Walkers.
[Sealing Complete!]
[Sirius Rift Projection has been sealed]
[Rewards Obtained:]
[Civilization Experience: +1,000,000]
[Resource Pack: Energy Crystals ×100,000]
[Divine Artifact Fragment Chance Drop: Void Core ×5]
[Server-Wide Announcement: Sirius Rift sealed successfully!]
[Thanks to all participating players!]
Lin Feng stood in space, looking at the sealed rift, and took a deep breath.
The first rift was successfully sealed.
But the words of the Void Lord Projection left his heart filled with a chill.
"In three days..."
"The main rift will open completely."
"A Level 6 Civilization will descend upon the Milky Way Galaxy."
He immediately contacted the Void Lord:
"Void Lord, the main rift will open completely in three days!"
On the other end of the communication, the Void Lord's voice was incredibly heavy:
"I know."
"Lin Feng, you have done well."
"But now, the real challenge has arrived."
"In three days, the Level 6 Civilization will descend."
"You must make all preparations within these three days."
Lin Feng gripped the blade of void termination:
"I will."
"Earth Civilization will not submit."
