I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature-Chapter 1797 - 1256: In the Worst-Case Scenario (Part 2)
The complete world is not something a minor world can compare to. Even when a minor world is complete, it has a clear boundary, whereas for a growing complete world, the boundary becomes vague.
Over 95% of the Proxy Agents present didn’t have the ability to directly break through a complete World Bubble before participating in the Extermination Order.
After all, regular flight here has no meaning. Now they can use destructive strength to make a hole and leave.
"I still have one more chance to preserve this, so there shouldn’t be a big issue."
"Yeah, but what about your lifespan?" Wu Lingluo glanced at Zheng Yichen. Previously, Zheng Yichen had 200 years of life left, but now it was reduced to just over 140 years, less than 150 years.
Although the cost was severe, he forcibly shook the link between the Heavenly Path System and the World’s Will, causing a deviation, successfully completing the Ultimate Heavenly Connection, greatly weakening the world shield of the Boundary Breaking Organization. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
Some Proxy Agents have already begun actions to sever the earth’s vein in the nearby great domains.
This plan is centered around the Organization of Boundary Breakers Headquarters, establishing an environment of Heaven and Earth severance. Even if it’s not ideal on the World’s Will, as long as it works, it’s fine.
Moreover, those people returned to the Dusk Territory, intending to use Twilight Creations enhanced by Dusk, to strengthen the severance effect.
"Well, shouldn’t we solve the main problem first?" Zheng Yichen smiled, not really concerned with his lifespan issue.
Anyway, at this stage, rather than worry about this, it’s better to consider how to completely resolve the Boundary Breaking Organization.
He is not acting now, just waiting for the right moment. The new World Bubble is growing faster, and ten times the number can greatly enhance the effect of the Ultimate Heavenly Connection.
The Boundary Breaking Organization cannot create something akin to a world shield, and the severance other Proxy Agents are preparing ensures that the headquarters’ connection to the outside world fails to the greatest extent.
Even if only a part fails, it’s fine.
All the Proxy Agents are making final preparations, and they foresee that, barring any surprises, the upcoming battle will be the final showdown.
The Boundary Breaking Organization has a high tolerance for errors; for them, they can only seize the opportunity if given a chance.
Zheng Yichen cannot replicate his recent method anymore.
The pain inside the Great World has been borne by him, and even if new ones arise afterward, they will not be as many as last time.
"Something’s happened!" Julie hurried to this World Bubble, bringing in information from outside: "The entirety of the Great World is experiencing turbulence."
"What’s going on?" Zheng Yichen immediately thought of what Tia had told him in the past.
The crisis facing the Collective World is threefold.
The Equilibrium Faction brings balanced annihilation, the Devouring Faction causes explosive destruction, and the Boundary Breaking Faction leads to collapse destruction.
Equilibrium means all worlds becoming too ’homogenous,’ causing resonance issues, while the Devouring Faction just keeps consuming until they exceed the world’s inherent limits, turning into a massive bomb.
And the Boundary Breaking Faction continuously increases mass, eventually becoming an unignorable behemoth inside the Collective World, unable to withstand its own framework collapse.
After collapsing, the Collective World maintains its original structure and destroys itself.
Of the three endings, it currently seems that the Devourers are the weakest. Extensive information acquired on Zheng Yichen’s side confirms this; the Devouring Faction is merely livestock raised by the Boundary Breaking Organization.
The various Devouring Factions continuously grow and fatten themselves only to be harvested by the Boundary Breaking Organization.
So among the three major crises, the Devouring Faction is the weakest, even though it is deemed a threat by Dusk, its actual performance is too weak.
The Equilibrium Faction has always had minimal presence, but their actions lead to almost incurable situations.
Neither Dusk mercenaries nor Proxy Agents have had clear missions to eliminate Equilibrists; even Zheng Yichen has only encountered an Equilibrists once so far.
Subsequently, he encountered a new crisis related to the Equilibrists, which led to the entire world undergoing a malignant transformation.
Exiting the World Bubble, Zheng Yichen saw the sky of the Great World turning slightly blurry.
There seemed to be minor tremors occurring.
"What is the Boundary Breaking Organization up to? Or is this the ’destruction’ Dusk talked about?"
"...No matter which it is, it seems we have no time to prepare." Julie slightly grimaced. Other Proxy Agents had discovered these anomalies first. The Boundary Breaking Organization’s situation wasn’t bad, but other places showed severely serious problems.
The world’s tremor didn’t trigger earthquakes or natural disasters, nor did it catch the attention of weaker beings; in the eyes of the vast majority of natives, the world was still normal.
It is only when one’s strength reaches a certain level that they can perceive this situation.
"Let’s head to Dusk first," Zheng Yichen straightforwardly suggested.
Returning to the Dusk Territory, many Proxy Agents had already gathered here, seeking information from their respective Dusk nuns.
Zheng Yichen found Tia, a Dusk nun, who calmly looked at him, seemingly ready to answer.
Her twilight-colored eyes lacked the unique serene charm of dusk, replaced by an encroaching darkness similar to when Zheng Yichen entered a darkening twilight tunnel.
"How is the situation of the Great World now?"
"Not good, the extensive boundary breaking has made the Great World unstable, with many high-spec worlds being integrated into the Great World’s interior."
After Tia started speaking, the sensation of entering darkness vanished as if it was an illusion.
"High-spec worlds?"
"Those are the Devourers’ worlds."
Zheng Yichen realized that the Boundary Breaking Organization was currently conducting some kind of harvesting operation, and the speed was particularly fast.
He checked the time on his phone; there were two years left for the task deadline, which made him suspiciously glance at Tia: "Does ’task deadline’ actually mean the Great World’s instability can last two more years?"
"No, if you can’t resolve the Boundary Breaking Organization within two years, you will have no chance of winning. Even in its worst state, the Great World’s instability can last 200 years."
"...Quite the coincidence!?" Zheng Yichen sensed malice, and observing Tia again, had the subtle illusion that this perpetually emotionless Dusk nun’s mouth had a slight upward curve.
"It isn’t a coincidence."
"I can live only 200 years too."
"Now it’s 148 years, 7 months, and 14 days." Tia gave Zheng Yichen an accurate number, which he wasn’t quite fond of hearing.
There wasn’t much time anyway, and with Tia’s words, it depressed him more.
Yet if he hadn’t borne the pain to sever the link between the Heavenly Dao System and the World’s Will, the time he had left would almost coincide with the Great World’s worst possible duration.
"Is the Great World safe for the short term?"
"That depends on what you consider being ’short term’ means."
Tia’s words left Zheng Yichen silent again. Although speaking about the Great World, it felt like she was referring to him.
Even in the worst state, the Great World could exist for 200 more years. Though it isn’t yet the worst state, subtler disturbances, beyond conventional perception, were appearing in the heavens and earth.
It’s like some diseases; minor issues can’t be felt by the person involved, only discovered during a medical check.
Once noticed, it might be too late.
Now, with their strength, they are akin to detection instruments, able to foresee problems, and when ordinary beings inside the Great World realize the issue.
It might be the worst scenario Tia described.
But when considering the world’s scale, whether terrible 200 years or relatively normal 2,000 years, or 20,000 years, wouldn’t it all be near death?
Just like his remaining lifespan...
