Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 894 War of the Kings
Destructive power.

Or is it destructive power?

Over time, his various psionic skills and remarkable achievements have fermented into an astonishing killing power known as "Southern Dipper." With every move he makes, he can unleash destructive power that most psionicists cannot even imagine.

Now, Song Shi has once again placed a heavy weight on this "destructive power".

—The True Spirit is "annihilated".

If this were a lake teeming with catfish, the sudden appearance of a rock would cause the catfish to scatter wildly, creating a huge splash. If this were a farmhouse courtyard, the intervention of an external force would likely result in a noisy and chaotic scene of chickens running and dogs barking.

But this is neither a fishpond nor a farmer's courtyard; it is Depth 6, where seven Abyss Kings have gathered.

The instant the True Spirit "Annihilation" smashed the sea surface, an earth-shattering reaction erupted from beneath the surface! The extreme killing power could not destroy everything in one go; on the contrary, it was heavily crushed by the forces rising from below!

"What a temper—!" Amidst the scattering sparks of fire, Elsie Ingersoll withdrew her hand and laughed loudly: "—But I don't hate her! Song Shi!"

But the sound lasted only a short time; before the echo could even reverberate, it was torn to shreds by a series of crisscrossing forces! An upheaval even more massive and intense than the previous cyclone storm completely engulfed the environment!
Not long after, the Yenan, the New Order Federation, and the Vanpusta Empire...
As the culprit that nearly triggered the "Psionic Shock" that swept across all of humanity, even disregarding the high value of the various products within the Abyss, it deserves special attention—therefore, every political entity has established a department specifically targeting the Abyss.

Almost simultaneously, in offices across Terra, elites who had undergone rigorous selection processes were astonished to discover that the Abyss was boiling and shrieking!

A dense barrage of scarlet warning pop-ups filled the prosthetic eye's field of vision, various parameters fluctuating wildly and unnaturally, as if trying to tear the screen apart. In just a few moments, several devices succumbed to the pressure, turning into junk after a series of crackling electrical sparks.

However, the source has been identified.

—Depth 6.

Even the Lord of the Abyss would need to make thorough preparations to venture into such a depth even briefly. The fact that he has the resources to create such a massive commotion is something only the "King of the Abyss" can imagine.

No, the Abyss is vast and boundless; even the "King of the Abyss" would be powerless against it. So the answer is plural "Kings of the Abyss"?!
[Notify all deep-sea units currently on mission! Mission terminated immediately. Ascend immediately!]

[All levels of Abyss Centers! Network protection level upgraded to Level 2! Emergency response plan activated!]

Commands were relayed back and forth in the channel, layer upon layer.

If we were to compare the abyss to a basin filled with strong acid, it would be violently shaking right now, with acid splashing everywhere. Even a tiny bit of acid, when it splashes out, would corrode several large holes in a person's face.

Boom——

——Boom!
Compared to the original, Depth 6 has changed in appearance.

Of course, as the Abyss, it is constantly changing. But things are different now. The fierce battle between multiple accomplished masters has left an indelible mark. The once bizarre and chaotic changes have been violently smoothed out, attempting to forcefully steer it in the direction it desires.

The clash of seven psychics with combat power equivalent to the fifth ring, [True Spirit], would, if it were on the surface of the earth, cause rivers to collapse, seas to boil, and the sky to crumble. Even the continental plates that record the traces of history and symbolize the majestic and heavy continents would have to bow their heads in humiliation and be blasted into pieces.

Fortunately, this is not reality.

Even at Depth 6, instability is inevitable!
The violent impact never stopped for a moment; everything was pierced, shattered, and plowed over and over again.

In the increasingly intense, high-speed rhythm of offense and defense, different yet equally powerful methods flow. Step by step, through reflection and experimentation, each person who ascends to the throne of the "King of the Abyss" has built their own unique combat strategy.

Miao Liluan's divine sense and data packets were mixed together, like a swarm of locusts that blotted out the sky, polluting the entire area. Even the most advanced data filters could not accurately detect everything, causing the system to be gradually infiltrated and corrupted by Miao Liluan, eventually bursting the machine in one go.

Its defensive measures focus on "buffering" rather than "defense".

It has survived ninety million cycles of "Kalpa of Past Wisdom," and the remnants of these past personality clashes have been plastered on its firewall, constructing a cognitive maze. Even theoretically bloodless and tearless aggressive programs will have their logic crash and be rendered useless if they crash into it.

Then a dazzling silver light flashed by, and a piece of the cognitive maze was instantly pierced, leaving it soft and fragile like a cake—

In the direction from which the silver light came, Elsie Ingersoll was repeatedly tossing something in one hand, like flipping a coin, but before it could be seen clearly, it slowly dissipated.

The answer is a technology blueprint.

A precious, high-net-worth, and rare technological blueprint.

Under one of the underlying rules of the Abyss, "all things have constant weight," technology possesses weight. This is why the deeper you go, the better the things you can retrieve.

It is obvious that, at the same speed, the heavier the object, the greater its kinetic energy and destructive power.

Before the silver light had completely dissipated from Elsie Ingersoll's palm, a new item quickly materialized.

Behind the woman, the phantom of a massive museum emerges, with countless display cases and doors opening and closing.

This is precisely the result of generations of painstaking efforts, a combination of cunning and cobbling, in building up the [Protection Protocol]—a process of paying a hundred times the cost rather than missing a single piece of technological accumulation!

A cognitive maze?

Elsie Ingersoll intends to use extravagant tactics and brute force to break through!
The next second, hundreds of silver lights, like hundreds of shooting stars, burst forth once again!

The "Observer" Shi Quanwei and Orion Cog are locked in a fierce battle.

The former adopted a defensive and counter-attacking stance. His psionic energy and technology combined to create a bizarre structure resembling a 22x2 Rubik's Cube. Each piece was an independent part, like an independent local world, and the "interconnected network" was composed of these local worlds.

Every single second, every single piece of it is rotating, and each rotation brings about new changes.

Real-time dynamic changes.

The vulnerability that was painstakingly found one second ago becomes worthless in the brand-new structure the next second, and must be scrapped and started all over again.

Faced with an impenetrable defense, Orion Kog slowly and bluntly tapped the mechanical scepter.

—Singing and chanting resounded from all directions!
