The ultimate move has been unleashed, but I don't know how to use it.

Ji Zuodao stood there, facing the Netherworld Blood Sea, fiddling with it for a long time.

I tapped it, but nothing happened.

I tapped it again, but there was still no response.

Silently chanting "Charge!", the sea of ​​blood remained unmoved, intently continuing to corrode Deputy Director Liu's fiery mountain, as if to say: "Stop making noise, I'm busy."

"..."

Ji Zuodao's face fell.

Depend on.

After all that, it turns out to be just a showpiece, all looks and no substance.

The skill icons are lit up, and the skills can be used; the scene is quite intimidating, with blood splattering everywhere...

But the skill details page is empty!

There are no instructions, the effects are yet to be determined, and not even a shortcut key has been assigned!

It's basically an "early access version," and it's not even fully internally tested yet, with more bugs than features!

Releasing this thing out will only disgust Uncle Liu, help with the renovations at Flaming Mountain, and incidentally, give it a show of force and intimidate people...

What's the point of using it now?!

Ji Zuodao was inwardly complaining about how disappointing his "half-finished supernatural power" was.

Opposite, from within the Bull Demon King's dharma image, a distorted howl suddenly erupted, a mixture of shock, absurdity, and heartache:

"What the heck?! What's going on?!"

Deputy Director Liu's voice came through the Dharma image, trembling slightly:

"The energy I've been using to maintain the Flaming Mountain... how did it suddenly become so big?!"

"No! Holy crap! This energy expenditure is wrong!"

Deputy Director Liu seemed to have discovered something, and his voice suddenly rose.

"Little Ji! How the hell did you charge me for that Netherworld Blood Sea consumption?!"

"what?"

Ji Zuodao was taken aback and blinked.

Is it your fault?

He subconsciously calmed himself down and carefully assessed his own condition.

The spiritual sea was calm and full of magical power. The blood sea and the red lotus were spinning and burning as they should, and everything was very stable.

The sea of ​​blood from the underworld that covered several mountain peaks was released just now, and it has been maintained for quite some time now...

Surprisingly, not a single drop of blue mana was lost!

Truly zero consumption!

"Hey?"

Ji Zuodao's eyes lit up instantly, as bright as a fox that had just stolen a chicken.

This is fucking...

I unleashed a killer move; I felt great, I created a spectacle, and I pulled off a cool performance...

So the blue bar was dropped by Uncle Liu?

This is...

Countless flamboyant metaphors flashed through Ji Zuodao's mind in an instant—

It's like going to a high-end club and ordering the most expensive package, a one-stop shop for food, drinks, and entertainment, only to casually slip the bill to your neighbor when you're about to sign it.

It's like starting a company, with booming business and rapid expansion, but when you look at the financial statements, you see that you're keeping all the profits for yourself while your competitors are bearing all the costs.

This is the art of getting something for nothing! A model of sustainable development!

Black, fucking black.

But Ji Zuodao liked it.

"Uncle Liu!"

Ji Zuodao's voice, forced to suppress laughter and trying to sound "innocent" and "concerned," mixed with the deep Daoist chant of the Dharma Form, rang out amidst the churning sobs of the sea of ​​blood:

"Are you alright?"

"The fire on your Flaming Mountain seems a bit weak? And the mountain itself... looks a little dim?"

"Have you been working too much overtime lately? You must be exhausted. Take care of yourself, Uncle Liu!"

"If we really can't hold on any longer, how about we take a break?"

Inside the image of the Bull Demon King, there was utter silence.

Deputy Director Liu remained silent.

He feared that if he opened his mouth, he would spit out a mouthful of blood instead of the Samadhi True Fire.

Zhang Yucheng, who had been silently observing and analyzing from the side, finally understood the operating mechanism of this half-finished supernatural power.

He was silent for two seconds, then slowly and deeply exhaled.

"So that's how it is."

Zhang Yucheng muttered to himself.

Deputy Director Liu, with his sharp ears, immediately started shouting as soon as he heard Zhang Yucheng muttering to himself:

"Old Zhang! What's going on?! Tell me! This is fucking weird!"

Zhang Yucheng had by now resumed his poker face, which he described as someone who could calmly drink tea even if the sky were to fall.

Hearing this, she smiled slightly and spoke slowly and calmly, her tone as gentle as if she were explaining an elementary school math word problem:

"Old Liu, don't rush, let me give you an example."

"Under normal circumstances, when two supernatural powers from different realms clash—"

He held up two fingers and gestured:

"It's like two soap bubbles colliding, their edges touching, and then they start to crush and squeeze each other."

"The result is usually one of two things: either Party A is strong enough to swallow Party B whole with a 'pop,' or the two are evenly matched and shatter together with a 'bang.' Clean and efficient, in accordance with the law of conservation of energy, fair and square."

"But under normal circumstances..."

Zhang Yucheng paused, his gaze falling on the Styx Dharma Image seated on a red lotus in the sea of ​​blood.

"That's how it is right now."

"Xiao Ji, I don't know what version of the bug she got stuck in, but she managed to create a... uh, half-finished domain divine power with her cultivation at the Dharma Aspect Realm level."

"Why is it a half-finished product? Because his realm is not high enough to draw upon sufficient power from heaven and earth, and he cannot truly form his own world."

"So what should we do?"

Zhang Yucheng shrugged, his tone carrying a hint of astonishment, as if to say, "This is the first time I've ever seen anything like it."

"He took a shortcut—he directly relied on your Flaming Mountain supernatural power."

"To continue with the analogy: your Flaming Mountain is a complete, beautiful, large soap bubble."

"Little Ji, isn't this 'Netherworld Blood Sea' just another new bubble blown outside to bump into you?"

"It automatically generates soapy water directly inside your bubble!"

"Moreover, this soapy water is not picky. No matter how big the bubbles are, it will keep producing and accumulating in it, endlessly and without end."

Zhang Yucheng, watching Deputy Director Liu's face grow increasingly dark, slowly added the last, and most chilling, sentence:

"When there's enough soapy water to completely fill you up to your limit, inside and out..."

He made a "blooming" gesture, his tone casual, yet every word was piercing:

"Bang."

"Your bubble will burst from the inside because it can't hold up."

"..."

The world of Flaming Mountain is utterly silent.

The only sounds were the viscous bubbling of the sea of ​​blood and Deputy Director Liu's increasingly heavy breathing, as if he were about to explode at any moment.

Several seconds later.

"Holy crap..."

Deputy Director Liu's voice came from the image of the Bull Demon King.

Deputy Director Liu understood completely.

I was completely numb.

This is beyond what can be described as "tricky" or "evil."

This is absolutely disgusting! It's shameless! It ruins the gaming experience!

"This is a move specifically designed to counter disgusting domain-specific supernatural abilities!"

Deputy Director Liu roared within the image of the Bull Demon King, his voice filled with grief and indignation:

"What's the point of fighting?! This war of attrition has turned into a one-sided blood donation! Am I a walking power bank?!"

Deputy Director Liu was so angry that his nose was practically spitting fire.

Zhang Yucheng's tone was filled with amazement:

"Little Ji, you're really lucky..."

"Although it's only a semi-finished product, proper handling and a unique approach are essential..."

"It's not necessarily inferior to those proper, fully-featured, complete domain supernatural powers."

He phrased it subtly, but the meaning was quite clear—

That bug was exploited perfectly, brilliantly, and brilliantly.

The Styx Dharma Image's indifferent scarlet eyes suddenly shone with an astonishing brightness!

Ji Zuodao's voice, a mixture of excitement and ecstasy, pierced through the majestic aura of the Dharma image and rang out urgently:

"Uncle Zhang! I understand! I get it!"

"You mean—"

"When I truly reach the Divine Power Realm and clash with someone, when our domains collide..."

"I'm not in a hurry to unleash the full power of the Netherworld Blood Sea and engage in a head-on confrontation!"

"I'll throw out a half-finished product first, then crawl into the other side's supernatural power, becoming a parasite! A leech! A scathing ailment!"

"Use this thing to drain his mana! Deplete his energy! Break his mentality! Let him experience the ultimate despair of 'the mortgage isn't even paid off, and a thief breaks into your house, stealing electricity from your meter!'"

"When the opposing team is exhausted, their morale is shattered, and their domain is on the verge of collapse..."

Ji Zuodao's voice even cracked a little from excessive excitement:

"I will slowly and deliberately unleash the complete Netherworld Blood Sea..."

"Then, like rolling a steamroller over small biscuits..."

"Grind it over!"

"Isn't that right, Uncle Zhang?! Am I understanding it correctly?!"

Zhang Yucheng remained silent.

He simply stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the Flaming Mountain in the distance, its surface riddled with holes from the sea of ​​blood, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Laugh without saying a word.

it is more than words.

Some tactics, like certain special cooking techniques, are all about "tacit understanding, something that can only be grasped intuitively."

If you explain it all out, it loses its meaning and doesn't seem to reflect the "light of the true path."

Deputy Director Liu: "..."

These two silver coins, one big and one small, are really messy to play with.

You two playing with mechanics makes me, who's just stacking numbers, look really stupid.
