Stronger with More Jobs

As the dark purple core was forcibly swallowed by Fang Qingyu!

Om——!!!

An intangible yet vast and majestic wave, like a stone thrown into a calm lake, erupted from Fang Qingyu's center and spread explosively!

This wave carried a kind of pressure stemming from the very essence of life, not violent but filled with an absolute commanding will!

As if a king's decree to his subjects!

In an instant!

Throughout the enormous cavern, all the Rock Nest Ant-type Life Ghosts that were crazily biting, charging, and fearlessly fighting suddenly froze!

The bloodthirsty glare in their scarlet compound eyes was quenched as if doused by cold water, instantly replaced by an irresistible reverence and obedience from deep within their bloodlines!

"Hiss... Hiss..."

The chaotic hissing instantly turned into a low, submissive whimper.

The next second!

Whether it was the Dark Gold Forbidden Guard Commander clashing with Tie Zhan, the Shadow Claw Hunter pouncing on the Frost Chosen One, or the Excavators and Giant Jaws Ants scattered in various corners...

All the Life Ghosts, like soldiers receiving a supreme command, hesitated not at all!

They collectively abandoned all attack targets.

Ignoring the human Martial Artists at arm's length, and even disregarding trampling their congested companions, they surged madly and frantically towards the various passageways around the cavern as a retreating black torrent!

The scene was even more chaotic than when they arrived, yet carried a sense of escape.

In just a few breaths!

The once chaotic battlefield filled with roars, collisions, and energy explosions instantly turned deathly silent!

Only the wreckage of Life Ghosts, broken fungal mats, and marks of burning and freezing remained.

And...

Suspended before the altar, enveloped by an invisible energy field, slowly rising off the ground was Fang Qingyu!

Tie Zhan watched this scene without surprise, only a fleeting, subtle admiration flickered in the depths of his mountain-like steady eyes.

He withdrew his gaze from the direction the Life Ghosts had retreated.

Suddenly turned to look at several Grandmasters and Divine Chosen with ever-changing expressions within the cavern.

"The core has already been set."

Tie Zhan's voice resounded like clashing metal, with an undeniable authority and a faint hint of warning, reverberating through the empty cavern.

"Ladies and gentlemen!"

His gaze was like a torch, sweeping over the Blazing Chosen One who had just broken free from the rock wall, surrounded by flickering golden Holy Flames and a livid complexion, sweeping over the Shadow Chosen One in the rolling shadows, sweeping over the female Frost Chosen One encircled by frosty blue aura, and finally landing on several equally profound and strange figures.

"3 minutes!"

Tie Zhan extended three fingers as if forged from refined steel, his tone unequivocal, exuding the absolute confidence of someone long in control of the battlefield.

"Either proceed deeper into the next layer of the relic, or leave here immediately! Otherwise... face the consequences yourselves!"

"The next layer?" A cold, hoarse voice filled with doubt came from the rolling shadows of the Shadow Chosen One, "Tie Zhan, are you taking us for fools?"

"Fool or not, suit yourselves!"

Tie Zhan disdained to spend more words, his tone indifferent yet containing an enormous pressure like a mountain.

His gaze locked firmly on the Blazing Chosen One with an extremely unsightly expression.

The blazing, fiery eyes stared intensely at Fang Qingyu, who was suspended in mid-air, with an aura steadily rising.

Filled with humiliation, anger, and a touch of... indescribable dread.

"Humph!"

Ultimately, the Blazing Chosen One let out an unwilling snort of contempt.

The holy flames around him suddenly surged, wrapping the remaining followers, transforming into a golden stream of light, and he rushed towards the nearest passage exit without looking back, quickly disappearing.

With his lead, the Shadow Chosen One let out an incomprehensible, sinister laugh, and the shadows rolled away, disappearing as well.

The Frost Chosen One cast a complex glance at the floating Fang Qingyu and Tie Zhan protecting him.

Without a word, the icy blue figure transformed into a stream of frost, following suit.

The remaining profound presences exchanged glances, weighed the pros and cons, and ultimately chose to withdraw as well.

Proceeding to the next layer was impossible.

They were still young and had no need to risk everything for a slim chance of breakthrough.

And the core of this layer had already been taken.

For them, the entire relic had reached the limit of their journey.

For a moment.

The vast cavern, besides being ravaged.

Only Fang Qingyu's group and Tie Zhan remained.

Oh, and one team hadn't immediately left.

A representative from Deep Blue Heavy Industries, with a shrewd and eager smile on his face, quickly walked over.

He did not directly disturb the suspended Fang Qingyu but tactfully stopped in front of Tie Zhan and Wei Banmeng.

"Grandmaster Tie! Miss Wei!"

He respectfully bowed and then presented a uniquely textured metal business card, edged with fine blue energy patterns, to Wei Banmeng.

"I am Zhang Hong, senior manager stationed at the Abyss Sighing Barrier region by Deep Blue Heavy Industries. It is an honor to witness Mr. Fang's divine power today, and Deep Blue Heavy Industries is deeply impressed! On this card is my private communication channel and maximum authority recognition code."

Zhang Hong wore an amiable smile and spoke sincerely: "Should Mr. Fang have any needs, whether resources, intelligence, or other aspects, please reach out through this channel, and Deep Blue Industries will spare no effort, refusing no request! Merely to forge a good relationship!"

Having said that, he again slightly bowed to Tie Zhan and Wei Banmeng.

He then looked with reverence at the floating Fang Qingyu, and without hesitation led his team to quickly depart, navigating this delicate situation remarkably well.
