The undead have descended upon the world? I possess a sword that can cleave the heavens once more!

At that moment, the wind seemed to stop, and the clouds seemed to freeze.

A strange, invisible wave that had already gathered suddenly fell from the void, then passed through the wall of flesh and blood without any hindrance, through the still-flowing dodecagonal magic array, and landed directly on the thousand-faced projection under the scarlet robe.

Then, the aura of that crimson figure began to decline at an alarming rate!

Sixteenth level...

Fifteen steps...

Fourteenth level...

Thirteenth level...

Almost instantly, His aura plummeted from an extremely powerful sixteenth-level to less than a thirteenth-level! And it was still rapidly declining!

"Suppression from the world itself?"

"With a ritual for deceiving Heaven in place, how is this possible?"

Within the open vertical pupils of the Thousand-Faced Projection, the layers upon layers of golden rings also dimmed at an extremely rapid pace.

He turned his gaze to Wu You in the distance:

"How did you do that?"

Wu You, standing some distance away, simply shrugged. He naturally couldn't possibly reveal the key to the Thousand-Faced Projection.

But to be honest, his Heavenly Heart Sword strike was simple in some ways.

He simply used his sword heart as a guide to gather together the world's will that he sensed drifting between heaven and earth.

Then the rest is simple.

Simply transform the gathered world will into a sword and slash at the thousand-faced projection.

However, this operation is also extremely difficult.

How could ordinary people living in this world possibly perceive the will of the world itself, let alone gather it together? It was only because Wu You had the help of the [Sword Dao is My Own] characteristic that he was able to do this.

As for the wall of flesh and blood, Wu You didn't even bother with it.

How can tangible things possibly withstand intangible will!

Previously, due to the presence of the dodecagonal Heaven-Deceiving Array, the world's will was obscured, preventing it from locking down the Thousand-Faced Projection and thus from unleashing divine punishment.

But Wu You is not the will of the world; he can only act according to certain rules.

With the enhancement of [Sword Dao Only I Am], he directly used the guaranteed hit characteristic contained in the Seven Luminaries of the Star Pivot Sword to lock onto the Thousand-faced Projection body protected by the wall of flesh and blood and the dodecagonal magic array!

Then, he unleashed the sword of will that combined his own sword spirit and the will of the world!

And isn't the will of the world the "heart of heaven"?

So to be more specific, that sword strike was Wu You's sword of the heart, and also the sword of the heart of this world!

The original thousand-faced projection could still evade the world's suppression and potential divine punishment under the cover of the Heaven-Deceiving Array.

However, under Wu You's Heavenly Heart Sword, the World Will directly passed through the dodecagonal Heaven-Deceiving Array and landed on the main body of the Thousand-Faced Projection!

In this situation, the Thousand-Faced Projection is almost completely exposed to the perception and targeting of the world's will, so how could it possibly deceive the world again!

The result was exactly as Wu You had predicted.

The moment the world's will locked onto the thousand-faced projection, the world's suppression immediately descended upon it.

This manifested as a rapid decline in the strength of the Thousand-Faced Projection.

At the same time, dark clouds gathered above the location of the Thousand Faces Projection, with bolts of terrifying lightning looming within them, seemingly about to shatter the Thousand Faces Projection below into dust.

However, Wu You, who could sense the will of the world, also understood some of the state and operating rules of this world's will.

He could vaguely sense that the world's will was currently in a state of weakness? Or perhaps rebirth?

Not only are the detection methods flawed, but there is also a lack of resources to deal with these "foreign objects" that have entered this world.

Just like that heavenly punishment, it's only used as a backup plan.

Under normal circumstances, the world itself would exert its own suppressive force to severely weaken the strength of the "foreign objects" that enter this world, and then let the world's native creatures, such as humans, kill those "foreign objects".

Only when the existence of those "foreign objects" is perceived and locked by the World Will for a period of time exceeding a certain limit will the World Will determine that the native beings cannot handle it. Only then will the World Will take action personally, and only then will divine punishment descend.

The Thousand-Faced Projection withdrew its gaze, glanced at the gathering dark clouds in the sky, and realized something.

A moment later, His strength, which had dropped to below the eleventh rank, turned His vertical pupils, now filled with golden rings, back toward Wu You's location.

"I take back what I just said."

"The variables beyond fate are indeed somewhat different."

"No wonder 'Fate' is paying close attention to it."

"You're not bad!"

He paused, then suddenly changed the subject: "However, if you think this is the end..."

"That would be a huge mistake."

As He said this, He glanced at the dark vortex that still stretched across the sky, encompassing the three southeastern provinces, then opened His arms, His voice returning to its calm and unwavering state: "I hope you will like the gift I have left behind."

"besides--"

I look forward to seeing you again.

Hearing the words of the Thousand Faces Projection, Wu You instinctively felt a sense of unease.

The next moment, the thousand-faced projection with its arms outstretched rapidly became ethereal, and its strength plummeted at an extremely abnormal speed.

Tenth rank...

Eighth rank...

Fifth order...

Third order...

First order...

Then, as His aura descended to the bottom of the valley, His figure began to disintegrate into wisps of scarlet light, slowly fading into the world.

Then, several messages flashed across Wu You's Sword Manual.

Experience points +8000 million!

Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Hidden Realm +1500%!

Divinity +30!

[Power: Crimson] +1!

[Power: Thousand Faces] +1!

At this point, the projection of the Thousand-Faced God truly and completely vanished!

However, to Wu You's surprise, the Thousand-Faced God, who was also at the God level, actually possessed two powers. No wonder the God of Beasts said that the Thousand-Faced God was very strong!

This Thousand-Faced God wields two powers! No wonder he's incredibly powerful!

As the thousand-faced projection dissipated, the wall of flesh and blood began to dissolve, and the dodecagonal magic array began to collapse from the outside in.

But then...

"Hmm, what is that?"

After the dodecagonal magic circle completely dissolved, a figure wearing an ordinary white T-shirt fell out of it.

Wu You dodged and caught him in mid-air.

He was stunned as he looked at the gaunt face with its eyes tightly closed.

He had seen this face before.

This person... is actually Lin Zhili, the former director of the Lanhe Bureau?

Just then, Lin Zhili slowly opened his eyes.
