The Rift Device emitted a buzzing sound, as if it were about to break down.
Tang Haofei and the spirit pets could only watch, their hearts tightening with each hum of the Rift Device.
This was the hope of the entire village; it couldn't fail now…
Bai looked a bit awkward as he hastily explained, “This thing has been around for too long, and since the technology is quite advanced, I can't repair it, so it has just been sitting here idle. If something goes wrong later, don’t blame me…”
As soon as he finished speaking, eight murderous glares turned simultaneously towards Bai.
That gaze meant, if something goes wrong, we will definitely not let you off the hook!
Bai couldn't help but swallow.
Fortunately, the Rift Device spared Bai's feelings.
The buzzing grew louder, and just when everyone thought the Rift Device was about to collapse, it suddenly burst forth with light, tearing through space and opening a spatial transmission passage to a very distant place.
“Go!”
As Bai's words fell, a gust of wind swept past him, and when he looked back again, there was no sign of anyone else.
…
As he stepped into the rift in space, the scenery before him changed dramatically.
When Tang Haofei regained his focus, he found himself staring at the familiar blue sky and land.
The air was filled with the stench of demonic energy, but surprisingly, this stench was not as severe—at least not as bad as when Tang Haofei left.
Clearly, the tenth level level restraint had been broken...
With this thought, Old Tang suddenly sighed.
The Demon Realm was gone, so where did this demonic energy come from?
Meanwhile, Victor was already on the ground, frantically digging into the soil. Moments later, Victor scooped up the loess from deep within the ground, looking at Old Tang as he spoke, “The land here seems a bit barren. Where did Bai set the coordinates?”
“Layered Battlefield, Area 0953 of the continent plate.”
Bai said this while packing up the Rift Device. He turned to Tang Haofei and the spirit pets and spoke again.
“Now that we’re back, I’ll take my leave first. The sovereign needs me to report back.”
After saying that, Bai waved his hand, tearing open a rift in space.
“Wait!”
Tang Haofei reached out, wanting to stop Bai, but before he could say anything, Bai’s figure had vanished.
“That kid definitely has a problem!”
The one-eyed man grumbled nearby.
“I’ve never liked that kid; I’m sure he’s hiding something from us.”
“Do you need to say that?”
Victor shot the one-eyed man a glance, then immediately sent out his perception.
At that moment, Victor, empowered by the Netherworld, seemed to transform into the god of the mortal realm, his vast and secretive perception covering the entire continent plate. Just one glance, and Victor was instantly stunned.
The predicted catastrophe did not occur; what appeared in his perception was a “paradise on earth”...
There was no war, no external threats. Even atop this barren continent plate, there were still three cities with nearly three hundred thousand people and dozens of large mutated biological tribes.
All the races were peaceful and tranquil, with no disputes or refugees suffering from hunger and cold.
If this situation had occurred on Earth, Victor wouldn’t have thought much of it. But here, in Area 0953 of the continent plate, a place once deemed “worthless for development,” it was surprising.
“Well, it seems the Old Man Fran and the others have done pretty well...”
Victor muttered, shaking off his fur, while Tang Haofei could no longer contain his little temper.
In a flash, he was surrounded by lightning and flew far away.
…
“The tenth level level restraint has been lifted. Yesterday, I completed the advancement trial, and today, I want to discuss some important points regarding the advancement trial with everyone.”
A middle-aged man named Kamen stood in the center of the manor yard, slowly speaking with a calm tone, yet there was a hidden smile in his eyes.
It was a warm and gentle smile.
