175: You have been muted!
At the same time, Wen Tian Sword Master stepped into the rift, and the scene before his eyes instantly underwent a drastic change.
The originally bright sky was stained a blood-like dark red, and the air was filled with a nauseating smell of decay.
Recalling the guy who had stood in his way earlier, completely oblivious to his own impending doom, Wen Tian Sword Master silently thought that it was already extraordinarily benevolent of him not to have cleaved him in two with a single sword strike on the spot.
After all, in his previous Life, as a Sword Master, who would dare to disrespect him?
That would typically result in being reduced to dust by sword qi.
Moreover, this world was completely foreign to him, with no sense of belonging whatsoever.
What did it matter to him if the people here died or if the world was destroyed?
"Is this the so-called Abyss?" He frowned, a hint of confusion in his tone.
"This aura... how is it so similar to the Abyss that invaded the Tianwu World back then?"
"Impossible, right?"
"From the concentration of spiritual energy, the cultivation level of this world is clearly inferior to other planes; how could it possibly withstand the invasion of the Abyss?"
"And it's even being treated as a place to farm monsters?"
Thinking of this, his eyes darkened—it seemed that this world, seemingly weak on the surface, might actually conceal deeper levels of power behind it.
Alternatively, this world is currently in a great era of spiritual energy decline, which is the so-called "Age of Dharma Decline," leading to such sparse spiritual energy now.
Furthermore, the development trajectory of this new era was something even he couldn't quite discern.
Although he hadn't fully recovered his strength, his intuition told him that this world was not simple.
As he pondered, the monsters from the depths of the Abyss seemed to sense his presence and swarmed towards him from all directions.
"Roar—!"
A low, wild roar echoed, and a massive Abyssal Demonic Wolf lunged forward, its sharp claws tracing a chilling gleam in the air.
Wen Tian Sword Master let out a soft hmph, and an invisible sword intent flashed in his hand.
"Whoosh!"
A sharp, unparalleled sword qi burst forth, directly cleaving the Demonic Wolf in half, sending blood splattering.
[Killed Abyssal Demonic Wolf, Experience +500]
The sudden sound in his mind made him pause slightly.
This... is this the system prompt?
As for experience, he looked down at himself and didn't feel any sense of power increase.
Could it be because he hadn't leveled up yet?
Just as he was still pondering, more Demonic Wolves swarmed in.
With a raise of his hand, dozens of sword qi roared forth.
-28359
-35896
-32148
After dealing several attacks that broke over ten thousand damage, his level finally broke through the bottleneck and rose to level 26.
When Wen Tian Sword Master suddenly discovered that his strength had inexplicably increased by a notch, he immediately realized—this was likely the world's laws at play.
It's no wonder there were no side effects and he could level up directly; besides the world's laws, who else would have such ability?
But speaking of which, why did this world's laws become so strange?
This setting doesn't seem right no matter how you look at it.
After all, if everyone could easily increase their strength, it wouldn't be a good thing for the entire world; instead, it would be fraught with hidden dangers.
It might be able to hold up in the early stages, but the further it goes, the greater the pressure on the world, and it will eventually collapse.
Unless... a large number of people die, using Life energy to supplement the power of the laws.
But the problem is, the current rules are as simple as kindergarten homework; if this continues, the world will collapse sooner or later.
If it were his former self, with his experience of integrating with the Heavenly Dao, it wouldn't be impossible to do such a thing.
But the difficulty lies in the fact that it's easy to lose control if one is not careful; light consequences include chaotic laws, and severe consequences include the world exploding.
It's like a programmer writing code; at first, you can just pile up a mess, and it'll still run, as long as it works.
But once you go in and make random changes, one improper operation can cause the entire system to crash, and everything is lost.
The laws of the world are pretty much the same; one move affects the whole body.
That's why Wen Tian Sword Master is now completely baffled: Who changed the laws of this world into this state?
Don't they know that one wrong move could destroy the world?
...
At the same time, Ling Feitian found a quiet corner, took out his phone, and prepared to do something big.
He directly opened a live streaming platform, targeted a popular internet celebrity with around 100,000 online viewers, and without a word, started verbally abusing them.
For him, insulting people online was one of the fastest ways to trigger a fantasy event, especially when targeting such a high-traffic internet celebrity; it was simply doubly satisfying.
His fingers danced across the screen, and the comment section instantly filled with venomous remarks:
"Is this what you call an internet celebrity? Your face looks like a car accident, and your singing is so off-key it's gone to Mars. Your followers are all bots, right?"
"I heard you sold fake goods and scammed your fans last time? Making money is so easy, why don't you go rob a bank?"
"I suggest you quit the internet immediately; don't pollute everyone's eyes!"
"..."
Wave after wave of venomous bullet comments went live, full of firepower, as if they wouldn't stop until the other party collapsed.
The atmosphere in the live stream instantly became explosive.
The female internet celebrity "Big Happy Little Strawberry," who was singing passionately, glanced at the bullet comments and her face immediately changed, as if someone had poured a basin of ice water on her; her whole body froze.
"This netizen..." Her voice trembled slightly as she forced out a few words,
"Can you please not attack people like this...?"
At this moment, a viewer named Ling Feitian sneered and continued to spray without mercy:
"What are you pretending to be, pure and innocent? Didn't you trick college students into taking out loans to buy products you recommended a while ago? Now you're acting like a white lotus again?"
"By the way, those who bought her stuff are really something; believing such trash, they deserve to be scammed."
The bullet comment section instantly exploded:
"What's going on? Is this guy here to cause trouble?"
"What he said seems to make some sense; I remember there was news about this before..."
"This is too venomous, isn't it? Even if she has problems, you can't insult people like that."
"Exactly! Insulting her is one thing, but how dare he drag us into it? Who can tolerate this!"
Seeing the situation getting livelier, Ling Feitian was about to add a few more sentences when a line of text suddenly popped up on the screen:
"You have been muted."
